4/12/2023 0 Comments Tropico 5 vs 4My opinion on 5 was it was a good foundation for rebooting, but it lacked a lot of 3 and 4's depth and charm, that could be forgiven had that developer remained on and expanded the series again (as they had from 3 to 4) because 5 was their attempt at a new engine I truly wish they'd delay the game another year and bring someone onto the team that actually understood what made the earlier Tropico games so uniqueĦ feels like it's being designed by someone who only read about the series and maybe played 5 for a few minutes, not someone who has spent 1000's of hours playing the franchise since number 1 and watched it grow into what made 3 and 4 so great I'm supportive of some of things they are doing, but I'm very mixed on the final results. I've litterally written 100's of feedback and reports on bugs, glitches, technical flaws and my own personal thoughts on comparing the old systems to the new ones and what they are missing Overall there's a serious engine under 6 that has the potential to be the best in the series, but I honestly feel like they are trying to make sim city as a phone app with a tropico skin, it really doesn't feel like the same series to me and I'm not sure they'll have time to correct it On top of that the interface has been simplified to the point where I think they must believe we all only have 1 finger, it's like a slick phone app interface or a bad console port where the developers forgot they have access to a keyboard while playing (there's not even keyboard shortcuts for anything, nothing, not even time controls), and they took out the minimap and replaced it with a sky-cam that you have to jump between (that makes me physically ill as you speed-zoom up and down into the sky and back to the ground to use it) There's no campaign, the presidential customization of traits is to pick 1 single trait from a list of just a few, the edicts and commands are sort of better than 5, but locked behind a very strange research system with level ups that don't make sense The engine is functional, it looks and runs well, but it's missing so much that it feels like they are still attempting to rebuild tropico 3 I've been playing 6 since august, i got into the invitation private beta 6 is a step down from 5? Have you placed it or are you just theorizing? Originally posted by Gentoo:Is the above true? I loved Tropico 1 through 4.
