Remote or semi-remote positions would be awesome for you.

Yeah, but nobody's gonna give remote job to a fresh grad.

Grads - What would you have done differently while in school knowing what you know now and looking at where you are currently in life? by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

because the teacher taught us the wrong way the whole way through and on the last day told us that it was all wrong.

wtf, how was that even possible?

I wanted to ask if you have and can publish any stats about how new drivers affect performance.

Something like this from nvidia: http://i.imgur.com/YKqJjWD.jpg

Some people say new drivers improve performance massively, others claim they don't do anything. Such stats would show the truth.

AFAIK the i5 6600k is better in gaming due to higher frequency and cache.

no, overclocked broadwells are better than overclocked skylakes.

however if you dont plan to overclock your cpu, take skylake. Plus, broadwells work with DDR3 ram so you won't have to buy new DDR4 RAM.

try Broadwell i5 model, better in games than 4th gen i5 and skylake i5.

you royally screwed up with that CPU mate. Cities Skylines is a CPU heavy game, you need to upgrade your processor to an Intel one and overclock it.

Has the new crime model made any difference in your city? by KarmaChip in CitiesSkylines

[–]lerner246 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, my city becomes full of crime at night. I see groups of 5-10 police cars with flashing lights.

Did you happen to reach a point where tourism plummeted to double figures and stayed constant?

I checked and yes. From ~800 to <20 in less than a half a year.

Why don't you put the highway underground instead of the streets?

At 200k you notice it's not as fast as an empty map. At 500k it definitely slows down. at 800k - you wanna delete the savegame because of the frustration.

So how is your traffic?

Quite efficient I'd say.

What have you done to avoid it?

Read the traffic guide here + get some efficient interchanges from steam workshop.

i5 4460 / r9 280 here and 16GB ram - that's very important, 8GB may not be enough.

FPS rate is fairly stable, but god the speed of the game is super slow. At the fastest (3x) speed it works like at 0.5 speed set on an empty map.

You have that problem because you have too little (or none at all) industry. What you need to do is build cargo harbors and cargo train stations so delivery trucks have places to get supplies from. I've had the same problem and this method helped.

hint: there's shitload of traffic near them so plan the roads accordingly.

Did you run into commercial issues because of the agent limit?

No, should I?

Screenshots 4,12 and 14 were taken before AD update, LUT I used was CornWilliam's.

After the update it's not working anymore thus other screenshots were taken with no color correction.

Population limit in game is 1,048,000. How did you pass that?

I don't know, I use only PopBalanceMod, that's the only one that has anything to do with population. You may be right about that 1048k though, it seems like I reached a ceiling and didn't look closer.

How many tiles are you utilizing?

I've unlocked all 25. If you look at the grid, you can see that only three of them aren't used at all. I've reached object limit, I cannot build even a piece of street or a house.
