So what are everyones experiences ? I havent played it "yet" but im thinking about it at work and since its a shiny new game it does interest me. Mind you I thought traffic management in Cities 1 was pretty unfun for me but that was waaay back around release. I watched and followed basically 0 news around Cities 2 except for some trailers. Im aware of the performance problems some folks are having but I got a 3080 and a decent cpu so I assume that should be "fine" if I keep the settings on mid level.
Anyways any input is welcome. Good or bad. Say your piece 
I also have a 3080 and the performance has been ok, it's not like a city builder needs to run at 60 fps.
I think the traffic management is a lot more fun in CS2, you still need to think about it but it's not like in CS1 where a highway would get clogged and in an hour society has collapsed because dump trucks can't make it to a suburb anymore. The solutions to traffic problems also feel a lot more varied, it's not just "build your city around an even bigger system of roundabouts".
My biggest complaint so far is that building on uneven terrain is a huge pain and the results often look terrible.
