Cities Maolines

G*mers attempting to simulate economy and crashing face first into dialectical materialism is one of my favourite new genres of comedy. Obligatory throwback to chuds crying about communism being overpowered in vicky3 cause you don’t lose half your productive output to landlords and porkies

marx-hi

Edit: it’s not really new if I think about it. Famously simcity fudged parking space needs to make cities that look actually nice. And dwarf fortress had to remove money since it almost immediately deteriorated into abject poverty and immoderation to the majority of the fort

If they really wanted realism they should have the top 10 world powers declare war on you immediately after you do a communism.
- They do get a huge relations penalty i think
  
  The whole game is going to be different in 2 weeks though. You'll be able to nationalize industries other countries have invested in building in your states, i bet that'll piss em right off

Cowards. Leave it in but make an option to remove landlords. See how much more viable cities become without a class of leeches.

Better yet, make gulags a city service you have to build like sewerage treatment plants and garbage dumps.

They spawn little NKVD trucks or mobs of Red Guards (depending on map tile) that go from but building to building getting rid of landlords

Have I got the game for you https://store.steampowered.com/app/784150/Workers__Resources_Soviet_Republic/

great game, don't play it. who knew building your own communist utopia could be so addicting?
- Welcome to Tropico el Presidente!
new buildings are dirty and ragged from their inauguration and everything had a layer of grime, that's just how the ussr was
- I just noticed they released the "Help for Ukraine" DLC in May 2022:
  
  Note:
  
  The developers of this game are against any war. We never wanted to present our political views and we are tolerant of any political opinions. But when bombs start exploding, politics is over. We are strictly against the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
  
  Damn, didn't know that Ukraine-Russia history, like the Ukrainian civil conflict, started in 2022. DLC includes the blue and yellow Ukraine flag instead of the era-appropriate Ukrainian SSR flag.
  
  Blech 🤮
  
  Edit: for emphasis. "But when bombs start exploding, politics is over." Just... Just god dammit, people.

why the fuck does a household need to pay rent AND "the building's upkeep"

I guess it is just like real life

Now do it in real life

Is the game good yet and can you mod it pirated or did their new setup fuck that up?

I'm more concerned with how it runs. I know at launch even people with 4090's were barely hitting 30fps because it was so poorly optimized. If it runs well, I might finally pirate it.
- If you have an nvidia gpu I hear it runs okayish, but it’s is still pretty shit on amd gpu. The YouTuber “city planner plays” did some testing after the optimization patch was released if you want to look into it further.
