I would've at least found that charming. Or they could nick the Alpha Protocol trailer where some guards mistake Thorton for Fidel Castro, and then pass it off as a Tropico game.What I don't get is why someone would create such a bland scene in 3D. It would be cheaper and more classy to take the janitor, put a uniform and beard on him and film him putting out a cigar.
El Presidente is back!
Features:
Play on large archipelagos for the first time in the series. Manage multiple islands at the same time and adapt to various new challenges.
Send your agents on raids to foreign lands to steal world wonders and monuments, to add them to your collection.
Build bridges, construct tunnels and transport your citizens and tourists in taxis, buses and aerial cable cars. Tropico 6 offers completely new transportation and infrastructure possibilities.
Customize the looks of your palace at will and choose from various extras.
Tropico 6 features a revised research system focusing on the political aspects of being the world’s greatest dictator.
Election speeches are back! Address the people and make promises that you can’t possibly keep.
In times of political turmoil and social unrest, the people are calling for visionary leaders, who will steer the fate of their country with foresight and ingenuity. Prove yourself once again as a feared dictator or peace-loving statesman on the island state of Tropico and shape the fate of your very own banana republic through four distinctive eras. Face new challenges on the international stage and always keep the needs of your people in mind.
For the first time in the series, manage extensive archipelagos, build bridges to connect your islands and use new means of transportation and infrastructure. Send your Tropicans on raids to steal the wonders of the world, including the Statue of Liberty and the Eiffel Tower. Customize your palace at will and give election speeches from your balcony, to win the favor of your subjects.
I guess any hopes are rather built on this part of the graph:So strategy and management\business simulator is developed by a studio with experience in...horse simulators?
Welcome to your own paradise: This is TROPICO 6.
We, Limbic Entertainment, are very proud to announce that we are developing the 6th entry of Kalypso Media’s renown franchise TROPICO. Together, we build on the traditional foundation of the highly successful, 15-years-old series, and evolve it to the next stage by adding our unique flavour. Once again, the players can prove themselves as dictators and shape the fate of their nation through distinctive eras – but this time, thanks to the power of Unreal Engine 4 and our proficiency, TROPICO 6 will be bigger, better and more beautiful than ever.
For the first time in the series, we provide El Presidente with whole archipelagos – groups of multiple islands – to build his regime on and broaden his ambit. With an extensive infrastructure and over 150 unique buildings, ruling over TROPICO will be a diverse, challenging and fun experience. Additionally, players can prove their superiority over the other nations of the world by stealing their beloved landmarks and assimilate them into their tropical panorama.
El Presidente promised his subjects public transportation, and so we delivered: Tailored to El Presidentes needs (and player feedback), dictators-to-be can now connect their islands with bridges, construct tunnels and transport their citizens and tourists in taxis, busses and aerial cable cars. Of course, there’ll be also some prestigious vehicles reserved for El Presidente himself.
One of El Presidentes tried and true wisdoms reads: “There’s no place like home”. Therefore, we proudly announce a fully customizable palace that can be shaped to the players gusto. Thus, the player can give even more convincing election-speeches from their palaces balconies and make promises that they can’t possibly keep.
El Presidente will be back in 2018 on PC, Linux, Mac, PS4 and Xbox One. Stay tuned for upcoming content and more innovations on our official social media channels:
Tropico 1's genius was pulling off a black comedy about poverty, despotism and cold war skullduggery on some barren atoll in the mid-20th century Caribbean. It was grounded enough in reality that you actually felt for the colorful little sprites with names and jobs and families -- the true protagonists of the game -- that eked out a living in their absolute shithole of an island while you mismanaged and embezzled and engaged in diplomatic shenanigans. And even when you did succeed, the game kept it real -- the island was still a third world shithole, just one where people didn't starve to death or live in corrugated iron shacks.

And in the newer games, the dictatorial path isn't really an option for an efficient game. It's too easy to please the majority and win elections. The game never feels oppressive, if you execute people, it's rarely because you have to in order for your regime to survive, but because you are bored and do it for a diversion (which is a kind of evil that doesn't fit the theme).
