Never really had a problem with UPlay besides it being another piece of software to juggle on my PC.

Anno 2070 is probably technically better than 1404 but the atmosphere of the game is inferior and why I've never been able to play it as much.

The UI is the worst part, quite a downgrade from how easy 1404 was to read from a glance, the icons are tiny on what you need to build something and it takes a second to figure out what I'm missing. It's a good game though.

Well, my first sandbox game just ended in disaster, don't piss off the pirates yo. They sent a fleet of 10 ships to my harbor and destroyed everything. Paying their cease-fire tribute is much higher than it was in Anno 1404 which took me by surprise.

Mayveena posted:Without the road to the warehouse, will the warehouse still keep any overages? That can be important when you are transitioning to another worker class. Having extra pigs at the start of Workers is very helpful. It won't no, it's the same system as in Anno 1404 but now the resource building needs to be linked to the production building with a road rather than being inside its influence range.

So you can't escort ships that go between the worlds? My escorts just stopped at the edge of the map and didn't go along with the trade ship.

I don't think you need to think that much about streamlining your island pops/attractiveness until T4 anyway, you aren't going to be able to get the really high expedition rewards until then as well. It also aptly shows that Industrialisation brought big changes to how society worked.

Am I gonna need another stick of RAM to handle 4 continuous sessions going on at once? I assume the long delay when first loading the new sessions is due to my 8gb stick barely coping.

victrix posted:Game good? Good game. I like the changes it's made from 1404 and it's pretty deep/time-consuming. UI could use some improvements, 1404 was clear from a glance and I have to spend more time fighting the interface now but I also like the X-series so nothing as bad as that.

Started a new sandbox and have 4 Islands within the Old World at around 10,000 pops total. I kinda like how it encourages you to have multiple settlements as in 1404 I rarely made anything but mining/farming outposts outside of the main Island. Gonna try and get a Hub and Spoke system set up so they're all getting their needs met. And gently caress George, sorry your Dad died in an Iron Mine but why be angry at me for building one when you've already got 3.

Steel is by far the most annoying thing to produce, I'm at 1200 for every other building material but Iron is needed for so many other things that I almost never have steel in my producing Island.

You may also be producing 'enough' of something but the wind changes and doubles your resupply time which causes a temporary shortage.

Mazz posted:In today's round of why the gently caress isn't this more obvious, there is a stance button hidden on the ship portrait. It's the circle overlapping the portrait. I haven't really noticed a difference between the stances, I've still had ships on escort run halfway across the map after pirates while on passive.

Yeah every pop consumes a certain amount of tonnage of a good every second, but like Mazz said it's easier to just base your calculations on the houses so you will always fully meet the total demand.

Wait, you have to wait 5 minutes for the map change to happen? I thought mine was bad at a few seconds of hanging before it loads it all in, or do you mean the time it takes for the ships to travel?. I'd be fine with no multi-session gameplay tbh, everything on one map might look silly but it's better gameplay. And the DLC's are adding 2 more of these sessions lol.

Frankly, the T4 drag would be so much more bearable if we could use blueprint mode to plan out all the tiers from the start so we don't suddenly get hit with the dread of reorganizing an entire part of the island to get a train track through.

Mazz posted:So if you have an island with no people on it, and you jack up the slave labor slider.... it doesn't do anything to their happiness? This is kind of ridiculous. I assumed it affected the workers that commute over to those workplaces. The happiness we see in the Island overview is only an average of everyone there but I admit I haven't bothered to test it.

vandalism posted:My upkeep cost went down when I shut down my second steam engine factory. Nobody consumes them, right? They are just for ships I think. So I turned one off. My income fluctuates wildly based on... who knows! My poo poo is a mess. Should I set my balance to sell excess for things? Every time I restart I get better but I dont wanna restart again. My chains are in a dect spot but I have so goddamn much cotton in the new world. I need way more copper, though. I kinda didn't try to balance those chains as well as the previous and poo poo is getting out of whack. Income fluctuations are almost always because your pop either is reducing in size due to not having enough of a Need or their happiness going down due to newspapers, work-levels or not enough happiness goods to give them. Though it's super extreme in a way that 1404 wasn't.

Guildencrantz posted:How much actual input can a warehouse handle? All the game gives me is how many loading bays there are, but I have no idea how that really translates into how many production buildings of particular rates I can keep connected to a single warehouse without getting it clogged. Eh, because of cart travel time that's pretty hard to determine. I usually make sure there is a warehouse for every 4 buildings that will be needing loading/unloading to it.

I don't mind the rivers as long as it's a big island. When it's a tiny island and it has a ton of rivers but it's also the only island with the right fertilities I'm just done.

Can we make it so that when you mouse over your trade routes it actually shows the route on the map, right now you have to click on it to see the route line and it is so annoying. 1404 you could mouse over just fine.
