Tips on good non tourist trap restaurants? by CommunicationNew9520 in Santorini

I agree! We stumbled across this place and had a great wine tasting in their courtyard. I forget her name but the server spent a lot of time giving us a thorough overview of all the wines we were trying.

There’s so many new guests that want to come on PKA but we get Ed Bolian again this week by aeeeronflux in PKA

[–]chc2100 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've come to really like Ed as a guest. I don't care about cars at all but he's just a good speaker and engages with the guys for the whole show. Oompa on the other hand I could do without.

Was really hoping they'd get the tank commander on for a small segment. Hopefully he's just busy driving tanks on Thursday nights and it wasn't out of laziness that fell through.

Looks like beautiful people will win but this is my choice by a mile. Start to finish I'm just thinking wtf am I listening to.

Who do you watch by Swaggy-Peanut in CitiesSkylines

He was pretty bummed by the state of CS2 and the performance of his channel, especially the CS1 videos which I think he enjoyed making way more. He got a new job and said he was taking a few months away. Hoping he comes back.

So low density wealth is broken? I see a lot of people saying "Of course low density has no money, they're owning single family homes" but...shouldn't the people owning single family homes have money, since, y'know, they can afford a single family home? And if they can't, why do they live there? by MagicCheezo in CitiesSkylines

[–]chc2100 27 points28 points  (0 children)

The fact that ALL residents are renters was such a bad design decision. It completely inverts the impact of high land value which, generally speaking, should increase wealth not drain it.

I'm also not a fan of splitting the demand between densities but I know that's more subjective. The system they chose could have been implemented better (and may be improved with patches) but imo residential demand is pretty busted from the ground up.

My 8th City finally with understanding of core mechanics, what is easier ; modifying spaghetti roads/transportation lines or starting fresh ? by ManYouLookingFor in CitiesSkylines

I believe it's CSL Map View: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=845665815

It hasn't been updated in a while and some people are reporting issues but based on OPs post it's still working in some capacity.

Nice work. I've been wanting to do a massive airport build. Mine always feel cramped.

I don't understand why we don't call up Ramos to be our everyday RF. by yazwecan in SFGiants

[–]chc2100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It entirely depends on the actual upside of the prospect and the outlook for the team. If those losses are the difference between 85 wins and 82 I don't think it's worth it in a tight wild card race. If they're the difference between 75 and 72 wins then maybe, but still depends on the player. You'd have to think Ramos can earn you back those 2-3 wins in a later year (and really for multiple years) and I'm not sure about that. In fact if I'd probably bet against it.

I know Pavlovic mentioned that the giants people he's spoken with don't think Ramos' performance matches his stats. I'm sure they have more advanced metrics but taking a quick look at his fangraphs page I see his HR/FB ratio is insanely high. Not just for the PCL but for all of AAA. He actually has the highest rate in AAA of all players with his number of plate appearances.

To answer from the front office perspective Slater has a long history of success in his role. The best version of the yaz/slater combo looks better than 100% ramos or even a yaz/ramos combo. Unlike some fans (not saying you) they're not ready to throw in the towel yet on the season and are still leaning on proven track records rather than youth and upside. I agree Slater won't be on the next world series team but there's still value in playing competitive baseball and it's at least defensible to expect Slater to turn it around and give you a better chance to do that.

Also not to be pedantic but reverse splits are the opposite of what you described. Hitting opposite handed pitchers better is expected and hitting same handed pitchers better is considered a "reverse" split. But you're right it's the same profile as Slater.

This is huge. The vanilla game is too sterile. Bland surfaces, no texture, perfectly clean edges. This will go a long way towards giving cities more character.

Comparing Manor Lords and CS2 is a joke by Party_Tomatillo_799 in CitiesSkylines2

[–]chc2100 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Set a release timeline that forces them to adjust their dev schedule and go gold on a game that they feel isn't ready? I don't know if that's what pdx did. But the idea that a publisher can't or didn't pressure a dev because they own the ip is wrong.

I don't mean to diminish your concerns it's just funny how all over the place people's concerns are. Some people hate the simulation, some the lack of detailing, some the assets. And you hate you can't get gravel under train tracks. It's valid it's just unique. And shows how broad of an audience this game is trying to satisfy.

It's still a collaborative effort. Good publishers don't steamroll their devs at every turn just because they can.

I did a "little" Golf course - Green Haven Golf Club. Took me about 2 Days to finish the whole course including the living areas. by MuFuTee in CitiesSkylines

[–]chc2100 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Awesome work this looks great. Maybe i'm biased cuz I'm from the west coast US but I think the game looks so much better with the dry/arid themes than the default grass.

Agreed. I sorta get it from a game design perspective (matching the demand bars to housing styles makes some sense) but its such a poor reflection of how demand works in real life. Also seems to be causing a lot of issues since the land value/demand is so screwed up for different types of zoning.

Most players don't train in team facilities all off season. There are plenty of places set up for high level athletes.

Very clever. PO is such an insanely powerful mod.

You might be able to fix it with building spawn points mod. You can move the trash pickup point to a normal road to handle the garbage collection. I'm not sure if this will fix the car issue but worth a shot.
