I Downloaded it myself and have about 5-10fps in the main menu on a RTX3090 64GB , 3950X. Most of the reviews say the same. Colossal Order are suggesting you should play on very low detail. I was a massive fan of the original having played Sim City since 1993 but I cant even get into this. It shouldnt have been released so early IMO

I've been playing on the Gamepass version (which was gifted to me by a friend). It's not spectacular performance on my 8th gen i7 and 6700K...but it's playable. I'm enjoying myself. I'm averaging around 25fps in game. Only setting I really modified is the Volumetric setting...set that to low. Playing at 1440p.

It's too bad. I'm hoping the devs don't give up on it and get it fixed because other than the horrific performance issues, the potential is there for it to be a worthy follow-up to the first game. Though the modding situation also doesn't help things...

I just can't buy it in its current state. I'll stick to modded C:S1 in the meantime.

out of the loop on this.

What's the modding situation for CS2?

They're not supporting Steam Workshop, they're using a homegrown mod marketplace that's still in beta.

It sounds like the best thing to do is follow the patientgamers approach for CS2.

Check back in 18 months and see if it is worth the cash then.
