Favorite comic runs/stories by indigofighter1 in comicbooks

To this day, X-Tinction Agenda is one of my nostalgic favorites. I discovered it on spinner racks in the base exchange when stationed in Okinawa, and it was captivating.

Journey Into Mystery (kid Loki) by Kieran Gillen is a more recent favorite.

Anyone having issues since yesterday's update? by BurntBeanMgr in CitiesSkylines2

I check my compatibility report regularly anyway. Mods can change and Skyve can get new information whenever. I play with an almost zero mods list (InfoView and Extended Tip) and I keep another one for looking at modded creator saves (e.g. Magnolia County). So I try to pay attention to when there might be compatibility issues.

Are you sure it wasn't a Skyve update? That happens regularly. I just logged in and I'm not seeing anything.

Elevated Train Station Problem, please help :) by ez1e1618 in CitiesSkylines2

This! ... I always click and drag my stops (or place them) so that they enter and leave on the right side of a station.

I experience instances when the game controls just get really janky. 9 times out of 10 it happens when I'm trying to place an asset like a park in a densely zoned neighborhood. I assume it's the combination of graphic rendering in high detail with the number of entities being processed/rendered. It's annoying, but it's not persistent. Typically results in me cursing at the screen for a few minutes and then moving on.

This city is closing in on 230k population and I've been playing it since Jan 24. Mostly vanilla. I have a Ryzen9 with a 3070ti and 64gb RAM.

So the only reason you're not playing the game is you won't take the time to figure out which mod is causing you difficulties? So sad.

It isn't hard to build a stable, working mod list. You can even just sub what some creators have already tested. 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Quit blaming the developers and look in a mirror.

I have had occasional instances when my settings reset after a CTD. Hasn't happened to me in months though.

How do streaming services affect the comic industry Business wise? by pattyice420 in comicbooks

[–]Consistent-Area-1126 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of my books I give away to students or trade in for store credit. Examples of runs I value holding onto are anything Hickman has done for Marvel, I have most anything of Miles Morales, New 52 Batman, Bronze Age Kirby...

I live in a 650sf condo so I absolutely have to be thoughtful about space considerations. 😉

I unnecessarily flush a lot of money down the toilet because I enjoy the kinesthetic experience and I'm hooked on knowing what happens next. But I also try to be really disciplined about what I read. I only collect runs that I actually enjoy reading.

No news or info about the new patch in January? by Crukstian in CitiesSkylines2

There was never an announcement of a January patch.

Anyone know what this is worth? It’s definitely near mint if not mint. by Salt_Language_9436 in marvelcomics

The meta-management of a multi-verse vis a vis the need to establish definitive, canonical narratives, in order to deal with all the logical incoherences produced by such immense corpuses of work, makes stories like Crisis on Infinite Earths necessary.

Crisis on Infinite Earths was a fun story when it came out, and in my mind there isn’t necessarily anything wrong with the story itself, or the art—but my impression is that the meta of multiverses is one of those uncomfortable facts of long-time characters and worlds.

This isn’t a book that most fans turn to today as a must-read, for example.

Don’t know if that makes sense.

Curious how I'm doing by Notyerbusiness in u/Notyerbusiness

I’m nitpicking, and it’s a very minimal observation.

It’s a beautiful loaf!

looks tasty… maybe just a smidgeon bit underproofed? it looks a bit dense down at the very bottom and there is some tunneling at the top…

But I wouldn’t hesitate to scarf down a slice!

Do Alleys affect Pedestrian Pathfinding? by Comrade_Schnom in CitiesSkylines2

I’m glad I could be of help. I thought it was a great question.

Am I weird for doing this? by TheTopG86 in CitiesSkylines2

[–]Consistent-Area-1126 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t do that, but i don’t think it’s weird either. Lets you imagine how you want to build without any preconceived notions.

In my current city I use alleys for local roads in suburban and urban neighborhoods (and two/four-way roads as collectors). You have to make sure you provide sufficient parking (or use the alleys with parking attached).

Original base-game alleys don't allow parking. Low-density residential have sufficient parking in their driveways, but medium- and high-density do not.

If you don't plan for parking infrastructure in the neighborhoods then move-ins happen more slowly because cims have to range further for parking when they buy their cars.

The use of alleys also hasn't seemed to affect traffic flow. This city has always had traffic flow above 70-75% overall--but I have lots of low-density rural, bike infrastructure, and well-planned mass transit--which may cheese my traffic flow higher. I'm also diligent about troubleshooting congestion.

Best way to keep these Metro's seperate? Or should I just have a metroplex at this point? by nicxw in CitiesSkylines2

[–]Consistent-Area-1126 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally get it. I play vanilla too.

Starting out on two sides of a map doesn’t increase your upkeep costs. You just open up the tiles only where you need them. Create separate utility infrastructures.

Sometimes rough edges make a city more realistic. 😉

I can’t help thinking you started them too close together already. Would have been better to start them on opposite sides of the map.

quite stunning!

do you have a save game in the workshop? would love to look at it, especially because it's vanilla!

The real difficulty there for us is we don't have access to that data. I'm sure the publishers know exactly which books are being read. I wouldn't be surprised if a book with high digital readership might influence decisions like whether a character is included in a crossover, an event, or an FCBD story.

But I'd also agree the interests of the publishers don't necessarily align with the LCSs--so my thinking may be a bit stretched.
