In all our conversations about game prices, did we miss that CS2 is coming to PC Game Pass Day One (and later in the year to Console)?

Well at that price count me in!

Built for consoles and PCs from the start.
Parking will be important.
Massive maps! 172 km2 and over 4000 items. 441 tiles.
Lighting is physics based.
Simulation overhauled, cims react to the environment. There is a redesigned economic system.
Pathfinding and traffic AI have been reworked.
“Another cool and new thing is the introduction of parking spaces, which really makes the cities feel more realistic,” Hallikainen adds. “The citizens need to find a parking space and that will further drive up the importance of handling roads and traffic.”
You will be able to track your citizens and their finances.

The first of the short weekly Dev Diaries features is out today. There’ll be a new one each week through until September. Here’s the schedule:
Feature Highlights 1 - Roads Tools
I’m loving having all the utility pipes integrated with the roads - that’s going to save a lot of time and spare a lot of headaches.

Loving that, it looks fantastic!
I like that utilities are now integrated with roads, probably one of the biggest QOL adjustments. Also, the angle at which the road can be placed and the proximity to other roads. This is shaping up tp be grand indeed, not to mentioned the pedestrian benefits of this too.

Not sure if anyone else watches or follows this guy’s videos, but I have been for a while and his content is great.

Yeah, watch the guys videos. “Put the pipes right under the road where they belong” Is stuck in my head now. 
All things considered it looks like they took all the best mods and included them straight in the game for both PC and Console gamers.

Path Finding Costs:
