That's a sizeable download that will take me hours. I'll probably skip this one, as I've no real desire to build a European city at present.

A lot of assets, I think that these packs that are been released for free will provide enough variation that won't need to go hunting for customer assets kind of like CS1 and on the steam workshop as it were with CS1.

Maybe that is Colossal Order's intention, however, I'll most likely still want to download UK-based assets, and hopefully, roads, when they come along.
 
The pack looks interesting and a good addition to the game.

Part of it is no doubt trying to rebuild goodwill with those who paid good money on release.

I also spotted a new mountain village pack and map pack for CS1 dropped a few days before.

I'm still sat on the fence with this one.
Have they sorted out the simulation side of things, I've heard stuff like traffic, employees, industry and such like are not interlinked etc.

Largely yes, there are a few bugs in the simulation still but it has been in a good shape for a while now.

The game is not as ‘complete’ as CS1 but CS1 has also had like 10+ expansions at this point. If you compare vanilla vs vanilla, CS2 is by far the better game IMO and there is way more vanilla content.

If you liked CS1 or similar games, go for it. We’ll wait for a Black Friday discount and then go for it!

I've played CS1 and loved it but not had much time to play CS2 so not bought it.

Looks like it's worth getting now.

I was thinking the same, never played the first bit used to really enjoy SimCity.

if you enjoyed sim city and never played CS the odds are sim cities skylines II will seem like a very good game to you.

playing skylines 1 kinda spoils the second one because it's pretty much just more of the same

Yea the second one is basically at where the first one was, well heading there, I basically would not recommend playing the first anymore anyway.

I did dable a few weeks ago but I'm just not ready to take on a major project yet.

Hi. Does this game have mod support?

If so how? via steam workshop ?

How easy is it to install and load mods for playing it on a steam deck?

CS1 had support via Steam Workshop; however, that is not the case with CS2. This time, they have brought it in-house via Paradox Mods, accessible within the game itself. I think in theory mods are available on the Steam Deck.

cheers... I'll keep an eye out for a sale.
Would be nice to couch play this over Steam Link with Steam Controller.

yea via an ingame browser, or you can browse them at https://mods.paradoxplaza.com/games/cities_skylines_2?orderBy=desc&sortBy=best&time=month


I guess theres' external ways as well
there's 5,998 mods at the ingame browser, you just subscribe to the ones you want same as steam workshop.


The game has play sets so you can have a vanilla version of the game and as many different modded profiles as you like that you can switch between, rather than disabling stuff one at a time etc


infoloom is kinda cool if you want more stats on citizens etc

I just subscribe to the main mods by selecting code mod and filtering by most recent I assume I won't be missing any that way?

@jonneymendoza i would be surprised if this runs on the steamdeck it just about does it on the ROG Ally but with use of AFMF2 (frame generation)
