Cities Skylines 2 performance is basically better now, dev poll says
Cities Skylines 2 mods remain the best way to make the city building game better and more intuitive, and have helped remedy some of the issues with mechanics and the overall simulation that have otherwise marred the sequel’s reception. At launch, Cities Skylines 2 performance problems were the central cause for criticism, as even high-end PCs struggled to smoothly run the game, especially in the later stages when the population is large and players’ builds are increasingly complex. Colossal Order has worked diligently to fix Cities Skylines 2, and now the studio’s efforts seem to be paying off.
Colossal Order recently hosted a poll on X (formerly Twitter) asking players about their experiences with Cities Skylines 2’s PC performance since the latest patch. Respondents were given three options, and could vote to say that performance was good, that they were still experiencing a slow simulation, or still facing problems with uneven frame rates. The results are narrow, but overall, more players say that Cities Skylines 2’s performance has improved.
Of 1,917 respondents, 38% say that Cities Skylines 2 performance is now ‘good.’ 33.3% say that the simulation is still slow, while 28.7% say there are still issues with the game’s frame rate. The margins are narrow, but considering the breadth of problems when CS2 was first released, this perhaps represents an important change in how the game is performing and perceived by players.
The latest Cities Skylines 2 patch makes an enormous amount of changes to the strategy game, with more than 30 bug fixes, improvements to the official Paradox modding platform and editing tools, and gameplay overhauls that increase mouse speed and redesigns for modals. The much-maligned Beach Properties DLC has also been incorporated into the Cities Skylines 2 base game.
If you want something to play alongside Cities Skylines 2, the best management games drill into the hustle and bustle of strategy. Alternatively, the best 4X games offer the chance to conquer the entire world and beyond.
