This game is so good. Classic Anno again, perfect.

Aphex- posted:Picked this up today, very excited about another old times Anno game. I absolutely adored 1404 but bounced off 2070 and never played 2205. One question, as someone with a fair amount of experience with Anno, is it worth playing through the campaign or just diving right into a sandbox game? I found the campaign to be good in general, but it can become annoying when the events of the regular game and the campaign events start to overlap and very suddenly the game gets hectical. Nothing ever pauses the game (which kind of sucks tbh, fullscreen overlays such as the expedition screen should pause the game at the very least) so you may end up having to put out (often literal) fires in 5 different parts of the world at once. So if you do play it, hold on to some triggers until the rest of the world is at peace as far as you can manage.

Quick money buffer in the mid campaign is selling frigates to the guy next door. He buys one for 21k which helped me avoid some imminent bankruptcy.

Boksi posted:You can absolutely upgrade roads just by building brick roads over dirt roads, so that's kind of niche. And the auto-upgrade isn't in because of workforce reasons - don't want farmers upgrading to workers if it means leaving the fields fallow. Auto-build blueprints would be nice though. there is a keyboard shortcut for "upgrade all" (shift + u) even though idg the use of it for the reason you just mentioned.

SubNat posted:Competitors play by their own rules, it seems. They sure are optimistic when it comes to demands. The pirate lady offered me a ceasfire for 80k after I obliberated her fleet. I declined and destroyed her lair instead, that felt great.

is there any workaround to prevent the tooltip from expeditions for the bottom choice to get cut off?

Mayveena posted:, I'm happy with the characters of color they've added to the game. In 2070 and 2205 they used many different people, not just white men, those were made better for me by Blue Byte's commitment to inclusion. Yeah I appreciate this as well. For the circumstance that they have an extremely terrible timeline as historical background they get around the issues quite smoothly and try to be inclusive from a modern pov in games at least. I think all captains of the large battelships are female, so is the pirate lady. And the bad guys or morally questionable at least are white males.

They do come back, but you get a chance to take out the pirate ship that wants to resettle. It's fairly easy to destroy it beforehand.

explosivo posted:Is there any way to reduce the amount of pirates roaming around? My trade routes keep getting plundered and I feel like the number of pirates really ramps up to the point where it's hard to protect all of my ships. Kill their base, it's not too hard. Otherwise create patrols with your larger ships to cut off the pirates entering your trade routes.

Yeah I chose "teal" or whatever and now I have to squint for a minute to see if its me, AI 1 (green) or AI 2 (cyan). The UI is sadly a lot worse as it has been in 1404 and even 1701, but they kept bullshit like their quarter rotated map for some reason. Workaround is to use the traderoute map instead.

Gadzuko posted:I only have 8gb but load times are pretty quick, I have it on a SSD though. That tends to speed things up much moreso than adding RAM in my experience. Anno definitively loves more then 8GB RAM though, but I guess it can manage below depending on settings and resolution

Pierson posted:This game makes my PC's fan spin like it's trying to go into orbit, I take my headphones off at the end of a session and it's insanely loud. Does that mean it's thrashing my CPU or GPU, and can I turn anything down or off to make it stop? If it would trash anything it would crash or your PC would shut down. It just means some load on GPU or CPU is so high that your automatic fan control needs to counter that, which is good.

Mazz posted:It’s more they just didn’t include anything this time, 2205 might be too much for the grogs but 1800 does even have some of the basic important stuff that was there in 1701 or 1404. As much as I like to optimize I also like when the game isn’t obtuse about stuff, which is what I find 1800s core “problem” to be. It fucks me up as well that they went all the way back to make a "classic" Anno but didn't continue where 1404 left off, but apparently found the need to reinvent everything from the bottom and gently caress things up in the process, needin another 2 DLCs and 3 follow up games to make up for that. 1404 was almost perfect.

I love the zoo. My current freeplay goal is to get as many animals as possible (all?) but through expeditions rather than buying them.
