Thanks for your feedback. We'll have to adjust where in the roadmap priority we put walking.
That’s kind of a dumb move tbh
I'd really rather go there and read text than stay here and squint at images. Link?
Are the first two screenshots the same or im having a bug?
Whoops. Here's the missing one:
Its not just you
damn. I was hoping for options to make carless cities, things like having am option or a type of walking path that will also place housing squares, something like that
You can make a city without private vehicles. There's pedestrian roads and public transit. Early on it looks silly seeing huge parking lots on low density commercial connected to a pedestrian street.
It's distressing how many people are stupid enough to think this game is going to be feature complete on launch. "There isn't a mode of transport that fits my personal opinion of how transport should be done??!??!? I'M NOT BUYING THIS!"
K. It's published by Paradox. It will probably be under continual development like the original was for nearly a decade. Hop on whenever it looks like something you're into. Fuck.

Yeah, imagine how stupid it is to think a game would be feature complete on launch! Never mind the entire history of computer gaming up to the blatant rip-off cash grabs of the last few years...
You can't be more than about 10 years old if you think the "entire history of computer games" only launched feature complete games.
Motherfucker, RETAIL BOXED RELEASES IN THE 90's would have shit added on after publishing. The only difference is that you didn't get regular patches that added new features, you had to wait until the expansion pack came out. Online multiplayer games where you couldn't play with anyone that had newer map or character packs. Shit that would be a minor update now used to come out as full price releases.
Hell, if a company released a "sequel" that had as little new content as Doom 2 did compared to Doom they'd be fucking crucified. "WTF, man, only like 30 levels and two new enemies? BUT MODDERS ALREADY MADE MORE LEVELS AND ENEMIES!??!?"
"Games only released feature complete!" - Someone that has literally never played Starcraft, Diablo, Unreal Tournament, Doom, SimCity, Duke Nukem 3D, or literally hundreds of other games I can't be arsed to list.
Many of us love building beautiful fantasy cities. And it suck when you can only build cities that are worse that reality. Ok. I do understand, that there is not every mode of transportation from the start. But biking and walking!?
I think, people are especially worried that it's an afterthought. Many of the most dedicated city builder fans do want to play around with different modes of transport. It's quite the contemporary topic in city design.
And so, yes, those folks would have probably preferred other features to be left out and rather bikes to be part of the core game.
Those folks.
Now how about the rest of your player base?
It more and more looks like this game is dead on arrival for me. What a disappointment all around.
Unless I'm mistaken, aren't the devs Scandinavian? It's really... Really weird if they are but omitted bikes from CS2.
Based on some other things I've heard, it sounds like their "roadmap" post-release is basically non-existent. They didn't even have a topographic contour lines view on the development roadmap until a bunch of YouTubers complained about their absence.
