I am not closing any doors yet.. as we barely know anything about CS2.
As far as we know this game could be released at the end of this year.. so much time to tease us with so many things.

Or in September
Or August
If they announced the game, they are most likely at the stage where they know its ready ish, polishing now is required, fixing this and that...

At least it won't be that cartoonish anymore, I just watched a trailer from 2015 :D

We haven't seen or know much about the game yet. Of course there will be things liked by some and not liked by others. What we can safely assume city sizes will be much bigger, traffic ai will be smarter and seasons will be in the game which would be amazing if it actually effects the city.

Games are usually announced AT LEAST 6 months before release. I bet on December.

This is good news; thank you for spotting that.
That's rather tragic news. Knowing now very well how unity works and how... inefficient it is, or rather efficient in creating multitude of problems.... I wouldn't expect much from any improvements... and now I'm just waiting for new C:S 2 crashing back to the desktop :)
I wonder what limits are with regards to computing any calculations... agents and so on... 65K pops on much larger maps?
1K tris for buildings (preferably) and creating LOD models again? what a... mistake :)

Only comfort in the fact that probably a decision about making C:S 2 was made before UE5 has been released.

Only time will tell how well the game beats the engine.

The developers said on the stream that they have been making the game for a couple of years. If you look at the release of 2 DLC per year until 2020. So maybe they started making CS 2 somewhere around then.

Biffa said he got to play around with an alpha build about a year and a half ago too. (At least I think he said that it was that long ago)
