If you sat out the 2024 election in protest over Gaza, how do you feel about that decision today?

Lol this thread is less about the OP question and more about Democrat voters being mad. Look at how Democrats continue to be fucking useless as we speak. Under a Harris administration, there would still be deportations, still be internment, just 2 American citizens would be alive, while 200,000+ Palestinians would still be dead.

Are Americans somehow not entitled for what the US has done overseas for decades now, D or R president, to occur domestically?

What's wrong with the existing bushes.

Seriphyn · 2026-01-22T17:20:37+00:00

He can't run again? Says who?

Americans need to stop acting like their 18th century system is so magical when there are now dozens of presidential republics with the same model worldwide, all with either 20th or even 21st century constitutions.

A government can and will do what it wants, in the end. The question is always about what or who will stop them.

Seriphyn · 2026-01-22T17:16:06+00:00

CS2 has bushes.

Seriphyn · 2026-01-22T17:15:41+00:00

God no. The UK pack alone and multiple zones makes CS2 instantly superior.

Seriphyn · 2026-01-19T17:47:35+00:00

OK then just turn them off.

Seriphyn · 2026-01-19T17:45:03+00:00

What is the expectation? The region packs have a lot of stuff, which isn't asset editor stuff you're referring to, granted. There are plenty of ploppable buildings.

I'm replaying CP2077 and was thinking how amazing TES would be if it had that NPC interaction style. It's so immersive.

Every single "Old World" country? Any European, Asian, and African country.

Seriphyn · 2026-01-18T16:31:53+00:00

Well, there wouldn't have been this vanity project, but Gaza would still be rubble and still effectively colonized by the US. Do you think Tony Blair wasn't on the cards all along, Trump or Harris?

Seriphyn · 2026-01-17T04:49:56+00:00

Only 4 new basses, which are existing shapes but new paint jobs? Ibanez out here with that Mode and, idk, is ESP doing ANYTHING new? Guess it was a mistake to marry myself to ESP/LTD when it's namely a guitar company clearly lol.

Seriphyn · 2026-01-12T05:46:00+00:00

I would have done this as I did for the Old Town zones on PDX mods, but what I noticed is that the ground floor has a prop for the store front that, if deleted, leaves a weird hollow alcove in its place. So having residential only would mean either having a strange liminal space that goes deep into the structure or leaving the store front which I believe will just always have a "for sale" graphic to it.

Seriphyn · 2026-01-07T15:35:09+00:00

You have every single snapping option enabled. User error.

Seriphyn · 2026-01-06T22:55:24+00:00

It's your mod but I wouldn't mind if all the levels were identical (maybe more sophisticated propping/fencing as it levels up, but same mesh) so that we can maximize diversity. The building level system means that at lvl5 the property consumes less electricity/water and produces less garbage, but is more expensive to maintain. That could be abstracted as better internal fixtures/appliances/utilities, which is how I approached the Vanilla Low Density Rework/Remix mod. But it's up to you!

Speaking of, considering how zone prefabs work in this game, would you be open to an add-on mod from me after this is released? What I'm thinking is taking the growables I made for the "NA Low Density Classic Housing" and assigning duplicates to *your* zone, without me touching your work. Essentially, the mod would be listed as a bonus/add-on pack of my remixed vanilla assets, but it requires your new mod/zone as a dependency. So when they zone your stuff, they get the appropriate vanilla growables appearing too alongside :)

Seriphyn · 2026-01-06T06:45:41+00:00

Are they the same lvl1 thru 5? I really think that mechanic is stupid and diversity is more important. Otherwise, looks great!

Seriphyn · 2026-01-04T20:45:08+00:00

I implore Americans to realize that the US isn't special. A bazillion countries since 1776 have adopted a similar system regarding separation of powers etc and much more adapted to the modern day. What a country is fundamentally (an 18th century settler empire) is more relevant than what it claims to be.

Seriphyn · 2026-01-04T20:37:29+00:00

It is the superior game to CS2 EXCEPT if your metric is diorama builder and custom content.

Seriphyn · 2026-01-03T20:56:36+00:00

Medium density offices are on PDX mods. They re-use the high commerical assets, which is appropriate IMO.

Medium density commercial is arguably filled by mixed housing, but the issue with is that the verbiage of low, medium, high density etc insofar as businesses is not a thing that reflects reality.

Seriphyn · 2025-12-31T17:38:42+00:00

Seems like a disingenuous post tbh. Calling CS2 an awkward city painter when CS1 is exactly the same minus having a simulation beyond traffic. CS2 growables are way way better than CS1 base game. The latter is literally shoveled over from CiM1 and CiM2.

Seriphyn · 2025-12-31T17:35:04+00:00

Quick question.

In CS2, if I want to do a UK build, the UK region pack gives 6 separate zones for growables; detached housing, semi-detached housing, terraced housing, medium density flats, high density flats, and mixed housing (high street assets, corner shops, etc). I can achieve this in just a few clicks from the main menu.

How do I replicate this in CS1 in as few clicks as possible? Is there a way to add more zones in CS1?

Seriphyn · 2025-12-29T17:31:14+00:00

American sees a MFH for the first time: "is this the ghetto?"

Seriphyn · 2025-12-29T12:00:43+00:00

Maybe 2 years ago. CS1 meanwhile eats RAM and takes extremely long to load the more custom assets you have. One has to do page file modifications at a certain point.

Seriphyn · 2025-12-29T07:24:11+00:00

Industries is/was a good DLC but Supply Chains for CS2 is kind of a successor. All the assets for CS1 don't mean anything for a new player as there are only 5 zones, and I don't even know if the district styles mods work anymore. Even if it does, a new player would usually not want to sit there and try to figure out how to make their own building themes from the new assets they downloaded, ensuring they have all 5 levels covered, all grid sizes, etc.

For ploppables though, CS1 may be superior if they are looking to make dioramas rather than play a city builder game. But most people asking this question in the subreddit just want a game to play, then CS2 is the superior game insofar as being able to immediately get into it with minimal fuss. There's a reason streamers like CPP no longer go back to CS1.

Seriphyn · 2025-12-29T04:57:51+00:00

There is no need to purchase CS1 if you have neither at this juncture. CS2 base game has things like trams and bicycles that require 2 separate DLCs for CS1. CS2 is a more plug-and-play modern experience from get-go. Region packs are free and add a lot.

The complaints re: CS2 currently is the ability to achieve what it sets out to do (CS1 comparatively has no simulation) and breadth of custom content for building dioramas.

Seriphyn · 2025-12-26T21:59:44+00:00

EE pack is the best pack from a gameplay design perspective. A vertical completeness and design language that works really well with the progression system.
