REVIEW : Technicity (PC)
Technicity: this allows you to put your talents to the test while playing a first-person city-building game where you can design your building blocks and other objects. Use vehicles to travel in the city you or your friends create in solo or cooperative mode, use cranes to speed up development, terraform the open world, and build roadways.
In this game, you can expand the size of your city and create additional kinds of structures as well as more duties and equipment to employ.
You can construct houses, stores, factories, and any other structure you may dream of quickly by using a crane or a cement mixer. You may design anything you want with a wide range of construction blocks in various sizes, shapes, and materials.
After that, you can save the schematic for any building you created and begin building it somewhere else.
Utilize the works of other players while sharing your schematics in the Steam Workshop.
Several large cities may be found throughout the vast open universe. You can access every area of the 384 km2 map thanks to an existing road network that spans thousands of kilometres. Create your roads, and the GPS will use them.
Use bulldozers and steamrollers to terraform the earth; you can even shift entire mountains!
Create your furniture, accessories, and building materials in factories, then use them to construct one-of-a-kind structures.
Create a garage door that opens, a lighted sign, or even a vehicle, among other helpful characteristics that may be added to the objects you design.
The things created in your factories can then be used by any other player in your globe.
Invite your friends to join your world so you can create new cities or play some exciting role-playing games. The game has a co-op that can accommodate four players.
Our views
In the video game Technicity, you construct a city in first-person using various tools and aids. The topography, roads, buildings, and other features can all be changed.
The fun starts now!
Factories!
You can create separate components of any size, give them purposes (such as rotaries, rails, buttons, or switches), and then combine them in any way you like. It resembles an editor inside of an editor. As I previously stated, the size is irrelevant, therefore 1×1 Minecraft bricks are not required!
Now for the cons:
With the prefab editor, in particular, the UI (!!!) and general vibe make it clear that nothing is yet finalised. Frustration might easily result from this. When the list in the Prefab Editor has more than 50 items and keeps popping up whenever you click somewhere is a nice illustration of this.
Casual “MC” gamers can be turned off by the content. Although it demonstrates the concepts and features of the game, it also falls short as a result. Driving a car, for instance, is similar to drinking old beer.
The graphics are questionable as usual. It serves its purpose for me but does not do anything else. If the game’s basic concept is sound, more graphics are not necessary.
It would be nice if graphic effects like weather and day/night could be disabled; they can be a pain, especially when building. However, it is a minor complaint.
The concept is brilliant. In the game, the building is quite simple. A large scale can be built. I like that it has a semi-realistic, not overly cartoony appearance. This should be exactly up my alley because I enjoy city builders and real estate development games.
