Cities Xxl Steam Reviews

Oh come on!! You are releasing a game and say there will be railways. What is ridiculous about thinking there will be above-the-ground trains??? Do you ever refer to metro as railways in normal life? "Oh, I need to catch my railway!" or you don't see a difference between a "railway station" and "metro station"???

 

Man, either you don't see my point, or you don't want to... Everyone knows above- and underground trains use rails, therefore it is a railway network. No dispute here.
The problem is the use of words that IS/WAS misleading and it IS the company's fault. If it wasn't, there wouldn't be so many disappointed people. When you are marketing things, you have to put yourself in the seat of the client. And if you advertise a city-builder and say there will be railways, people will likely think these are simply above ground trains.
In your logic, these two announcements by a pizza place are the same:
1) "all you can eat pizza tonight"
2) "all you can eat shrimp pizza tonight, no other pizzas available"
If these are the same for you, I hope you are not allergic to seafood.

Good night, mate ;-)

 

seriously if they had above ground rail in the game they would of advertised the crap out of that feature! Seems your just peeved off because it doesn't have what your thought it had. Anyway hopefully in the future it maybe have above ground freight/passenger rail. In the meantime enjoy the new game!

 

Sorry guys, I'm a little confused....

Shouldn't the game have worked upon first release (aka game lag, etc)....? At least a bug fix in a reasonable time thereafter.....?

Now, how many years later on "CXL 4.0" (or whatever), we finally get a lag fix for an additional $20.00US (discounted)....so $50-60.00US later we have a "great game...finally...!"

Just came from official web site and it says "1000+ buildings, maps, etc...." Didn't XL nation just cross 1,000 "community uploaded mods" several days ago....? They have had all of the tools for the better part of five years and you guys have eclipsed them with much better elements...kudo's to all of you...!

Tell you what, I'm going to wait until all of the veteran modders play the game for a handful of days, watch their reviews and then make my decision to add the CXXL "patch"....or not....

For me it's not about the $20.00, it's that it took another year plus since the release of Platinum to FINALLY fix the biggest problem the game has had since Day 1...

Thanks to the XLNation community, FHI should be ecstatic that you guys kept the game on life support up to now....

I really, really want to keep loving this game....the early reviews are confirming me to "park and wait"....

And you know the guys at Cities: Skylines are feasting on all of the controversy and potential confusion....betting they have a slight delay in release as they continue to tweak their product...and why not...? They have now seen what "the other guys" have brought to the table....

Just sayin...

 

@nicko2u , you are right in all three points: they would have, I am, the new game :-D

 

Thanks Funky....was hoping so...!

Glad to hear a nice sample group did the beta testing...already making me feel better....

Sounds like we need to keep testing earlier mods to see what will fit...betting the "not compatible list" will shrink pretty quickly....

if I am reading everybody correct: Start a new city first in XXL and work your way through your mod's pak to see what is compatible ....?

Also, keep old CXL cities in older game...right...?

Thanks guys...!

 

they bought a second hand car/game, not like FHI created this game Monte Cristo did. FHI have finally fixed some major issues with it and all I see are trolls bitching about stuff that is not even related to the new game funny as.

 

skullz i think it will be some mods will need adjusting to suit the new menu, idea of new menu is to keep it less cluttered with so many menu options that where in originally in UIM.

 

I found this informative.

 

gamers review that's all not bad though.

 

yah to many plaza areas lol. thats why I tend to make mine small so not to bloat it out with a mega pack not to mention one

 

Actually it does matter ! so far I have only cities of 10 to 50k which isn't really city is it. And if its not multicore why sell it as multicore.

 

My friend I do not need to jump on google I am software engineer of 30+ years . Actually I manage test department so I know bug when I see one .
