Before I get into my annoyance, I want to thank all developers/modders for the hard and often thankless work you are doing. It is appreciated! I started playing Cities: Skylines on my pc back in 2017 for a couple of years and then life got in the way. A couple of months ago I started again, this time on my Xbox Series X. I am simply gobsmacked at the lack of variety, to be honest. In real life, I am a bit of a train buff. and it kills me to not have a variety in this game. I reached out to Paradox and they basically brushed me off to be blunt about it. Basically, they told me the reason for it is modders can't be bothered with making anything I am seeking for the console version. So below are a list of things that I'd like to see (and I am sure others as well) and some insight as to why they are not available to console users would be awesome in helping me understand...
1. High-speed trains? We need some Acella and TGV in our lives!
2. A variety (and some LONGER) freight trains
3. Long-distance passenger trains (like Amtrak, Bernina, Odontots, etc)
4. Building with helipads that can actually be used
Now, I am not saying ANY of that is just simple and one of you could knock it out in a few hours. I am certain it would take a long time and then maybe even longer to convince Paradox to add them as stand-alone mods or in a DLC for the Xbox. But for the life of me, I cannot understand why not one of those things was included with the TRANSPORTATION DLC. Cute, I got a blimp, cable cars, some high-speed rail track, and a couple of bridges. Yay. They gave us veggies and no meat and taters!
