Where to now?
>>737191664>Where to now?Tel Aviv
>12 immigrantsIt's over, Tropico has fallen
>>737192384I remember when I brought an actual refugee crisis to my island by activating the edict that gives you 100 chink immigrants but forgetting to give them enough jobs or housingGetting rid of that sprawling chink ghetto was a experience
>>737191664Are the Tropico games any good?
>>737191664>Tropico 7 is in developmentNeat, I love playing as despot. Last one I played tho was 5, so I might check 6 in the meanwhile.
>>737192661Yeah.
>>7371927396 is fantastic. Probably the best in the series IMO.
I don't know why they didn't have Sunny Smiles and Penultimo doing the radio in every gameThe chemistry between your pitiful #1 lapdog and stereotypical hippie girl whi actually questions things was fun
>$-44kWhat the fuck are you doing anon?>>737192661Exceptional city builders.
>>737192739>>737192791They need to get rid of eras. Stupid gimmick that should not have made it out of 5
>>737192791Why are publishers like this? High seas await I guess, yarr.
>>7371927396 is the best one out there especialy after the travesty that was 5, just skip the last few dlc's, they where developed by third parties and it realy shows, most of the story missions from the moon dlc onwards are bugged and straight up not compleatable, the dlc buildings themselves are buggy and leave their foilage on the map if you delete them, dont give them money for doing a shity job at QA
>>737192661The 4th one had sovl
>>737192501Offices are just Perpetuum Mobile for money.You simply can't build enough of them.What is funny is that this one edict is Great Replacement in action. 10 years later and every faction candidate is a chink, every minister is a chink and every kid with tropican flag has a chink name.
>>737193259I'll play it tomorrow. I was going to buy it until I saw how much shit there is and how poorly some of it is made.
>>737192791It would be perfect if I had more tools for oppresing the people. Liberty is ok in concept but faction politics should have a bigger impact. Hardline militarists should be ok with 0 liberty and other stuff as long as you keep the army happy. It would also put more focus on propaganda. Being able to have cops auto arrest rebels would also be good.
>>737192661never played 1 and 2, they lookt very dated but I am interested to play them someday to just check them out3 is the first 3d tropico and very fun, it just lacks what makes later tropicos exeptional like the whaky characters, the voice acting, a story campaign and much of the satire tho 3 also has its moments4 was 3 refined and added most of the things that make tropico stand out like dynamic story missions and faction demands, every political ideology now has its own voiced representative and they are all pretty fun to listen to, the modern times add on even adds a working timeline progression that unlocks new buildingsIt didn't change much about the core gameplay and issues 3 had like the extremly frontloaded difficulty never got addressedits still the best tropico after 6cont
>>737192739I hope they let me fuck with citizens more. The screenshot of "constitution screen" isnt filling me with confidence. I want to really BE one of the most gruesome dictators ever, i want rediculous laws and mandates
>>737195718Game was usually comedy focused so I doubt they would go that route.I would still want to have my own organ harvesting operation on an island.
>>737195897It can be funny oppression like the old timey clothes edict So long as i have lots of options to torment them im happy
>>7371951485 is the most controversial one, in its aim to fix the core problems 3 and 4 had they added even more problemsfirst they added an era system that locks you out of most of the games buildings until you "progress the ages" by doing certain missions. Sounds interesting but is actualy just a realy boring tutorial that you have to play over and over, the colonial era gives you almost nothing to do and just has you building farms and mines until you can either start an independence war of just buy your freedom for money, later eras are either "allie with x faction" or "build x building" its not appealing at all and you just want to skip themit also removed most of the characters, especialy the faction representatives and replaced them with some random dudes that are just way less appealingthey also added research(who cares), exploration of the island(who cares), an actual constitution where you can regulate voting and worker rights(good in theory, ruined by the fact that foreigen powers get huge oppinion modifyers on your laws that can lead to war because they dont like that you have militias instead of an organised army) and an dynasty system where you can create your merry family of corrupt whaky oligarchs that all give different buffs and debuffs which was the best feature they intigrated into the game and I have no idea why they removed it in the sequelalso all the dlcs suck and straight up make the game worse lmao
>>737195985>El Presidente>we ran out of fertilizer>sign this edict>every citizen has to donate his shit
>>7371961926 is basicaly to 5 what 4 was to 3, they heavily polished the base mechanics, the era system is still there but it sucks way less, also you actualy now get something to do in early colonial age, faction representatives are finaly back, and the game also added a brand new mechanic with "raids" where you can build agent buildings(one for each age) where you can do all kinds of things, the most important one is stealing monuments from superpowers that give your island huge buffs, like your subjects not dying from bad healthcare or permanent pollution reductionalmost all buildings have secondary functions or work modes making them very flexible, tech actualy matters now(kinda), you can now actualy use your swiz bank money to bribe factions leaders to instantly compleate their missions or to temporarely increase your image, tourism actualy makes a profit now and I liked the campaign missionsand like I >>737193259 said, dlc is ok till you hit new frontiers and from there on everything becomes trash, never buy them just pirate if you have to, most of the stuff the dlc bring are restricted to the dlc campaigns themselves anyway so you wont miss that much6 is the most polished and with all its content its probably the best one yet, just get it for cheap and dont buy the later dlc's they are just scam
I think letting you fully modernize the island was a mistake. It loses the tropical charm that makes the game what it is. >>7371951481 is great but 3 pretty much copied it. Best soundtrack by far though.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07m3aXx4Wto
>>737191664All workand no playfor Presidenté
My million dollar game idea is basically Space Station 13 in Tropico's setting.
>>737199417dont you mean that the other way arround?if yes then spacebase startopia already kinda did it
>>737199574No, I literally mean ss13 in Tropico's setting, in the sense that SS13 has been compared to "dwarf fortress, but you play as one of the dwarfs."Everyone plays as a citizen of some unstable Latin American island dictatorship with their own job, including the most important one, El Presidente.
>>737193218Hey, if it worked for Paradox...
>>7371926611 can be pretty brutal2 is a black sheep but is fun3 and 4 are pretty much the same, 4 is a bit better and is generally considered the peak of the series5 is total dogshit6 is barely better7 actually looks promising
>that one mission where they reference yiik
>>737199417>>737199768That actually sounds fun anon. I'd play it
>>737195148The first Tropico is like the first Sims. It has this unquantifiable SOVL multiplier that makes it really stick with you. I remember the custom side missions being surprisingly deep and varied, if you got the expansions. I highly recommend checking it out, if just for the soundtrack.Sooooo saddddd
>>737199768>>737201281I haven't played it, but I've heard of a more sci-fi 1984 version of that called Aneurism IV on Steam. You might want to check that out if you really want to try your idea in the real world.
>>737201473>job: deadSo, the easiest way to get a job is to kill yourself? Why did we not tell this to all the NEETs?
