I love how, no matter how different CS2 feels and looks compared to cs1, there is such a huge Imperatur vibe in the whole build, as if nothing changed ❤
Seeing all the things we can do on day 1 is absolutely amazing. Even though the game might not be optimized well or includes features like bike infrastructure, It can only get better from here, whether that's when CO adds them or modders do I'm excited to see what the future holds in store.
I think, for aesthetic purposes it's better to remove pedestrian crossings when they are very close to each other, like at 21:35, to keep only one of them (as I remember, game now allows to do that)
I've been playing CS2 pretty much non stop since release and I have been blown away. Its almost everything I've ever wanted in a city builder (a cross between CS1 and Transport Fever 2).. The only issues I have with it are performance (of course) and the fact that they released so few ploppable assets compared to vanilla CS1 (clearly to save their value for DLCs). Minor things though ultimately because the game itself is a masterpiece. Once we get the CS2 equivalent for Moveit, Anarchy, Network multitool, and Improved public transportation we'll be really set.
The roads in this game are amazing but more touchy then I expected. I didn’t realize how much I depended on move it for fine tweaks! I was instinctively going for my preset button! So much to learn from watching these vids!
CS2 is great if you can get passed the performance issues. I got passed most of them by changing the graphics to medium and making the CPU focus on framerate, so the only issue is the occasional freeze, which lasts like 5 seconds. the only big problem I'm still having is the zip file glitch thing, which sometimes you can just dismiss, and other times you have to restart the game
What's annoying for me is that I don't have fps lag but I have lag spikes that sometimes crash the game, I'm assuming I'm going to have to spend hours in the settings finding the cause
You can use some auto mouse cliker for placing trees. I use GS auto clicker. You can set hotkey to start fast mouse clicking and drag the mouse. It helps while we haven't prop line tool
Im using the same map, yet you've done so much more to make the roads wayyy more interesting than what i was able to put out. My suburban areas look ok, and I dug a canal cutting through the main island with European housing. Still havent dome much with the castle other than put a telecom tower up top with switchback roads. Im kinda bored of current maps already and can't figure out what i can do to make them more interesting. Archipelago island is the most appealing map of all of them, yet the most challenging.
30:20 Mouse: "Just let me die" xD i bet that whit this layout of roads you will have nice traffic jam however looks really great. Im impress how you use landscape mine doesnt work so fine :(
I played it for a while now. It misses some basic stuff. the city does not feel really alive like CS1 did. Basicly, parks feel empty, the lack of animated people in parks, playgrounds and dogparks (i havent seen any people inj those tbh), or animated emergency services (stretchers for ambulance, policemen, firefighters) is dissapointing. The road system is just 1 word. AMAZING. the management is amazing as well. You can deffinetly see the Cities in Motions aspect of the game. And thats what the game feels like. A cities in motions game where you build the map yourself. It needs some work to make it feel like a cities skylines game. But if the devs listen like they say they do. I am sure it will be fine. I have a 30k city population and the game so far (with a few little hickups) runs pretty smooth with med to high settings. However when you zoom in to ground level the game hicks a little more. But it is deff playable. and i really enjoy it already but id does need alot of work
Had to buy a Ryzen 9 and 4090 to get the damn thing to run (I’d been contemplating a major upgrade for a while and I finally pulled the trigger) and man is it a crazy crazy beautiful simulation. I JUST WISH IT HAD PROCEDURAL ZONING!!!
the building is massive ! but i think there is a problem with the expressway network at 11:10 , in the first interchange that you made, cars are going in the highway before other cars leaving it, and i think it can make traffic issues...
Mine is too (CPU at least (Ryzen 5 3550), GPU is GTX 1650 which is a bit above I believe, plus 16 gb ram) and it runs decently, even on high graphics. Definitely missing some features from cs:1 (bike infrastructure, parks (the non-ploppable kind) and how much bigger most utilities are compared to cs1), but it is a new experience and viewed as that it is an amazing game, which will only get better. The road building tools are an absolute godsent, everything I hated about cs1 roads has been addressed
What an amazing build so far, I’m loving it, but I’m still yet to see someone not build a tram loop anywhere 😅 The loops for me take too much space and don’t look so good, remember that the game now allows reversible trams, but apart from that everything else is pure perfection 👌🏼
Wow! This is incredible! Could you do a tutorial on how you get perfect curves or how you line things so well? I am new to the game but I struggle getting things like make shift roundabouts to look perfectly oval or round and getting the off ramps in a perfect curve.
liking the Game so far (my fps is currently 17 on medium and various settings disabled on steam Deck) but still playable. although it dose crash after 1hr so hopefully they will improve this. as many have had same issue on other pcs
Big thanks to u@@imperatur, wish u to get 300 000 subs!))) So i have one more Q. Have you managed to achieve a positive income on the balance sheet of the city? (I have problems with my english now, and used google translate to say that, sry if it sounds wrong)
Love everything you make! Question though; I notice that through the entire build the city is always losing money (even a loan), is there a point where it goes bankrupt or do cities in cs2 eventually start making money? Haven't been able to do so myself
Hi I got around 15 k pop to be green the income. Btw play with tax, service fees and build loads of special industry for prudoction. I had a net positive income from special industries but on income don't show up I just got more and more money without actually been in positive on income tab. I hope this help.
Tested it out yesterday. Building quay is a nightmare. Leveling roads is very poor if not terraform first. Zoning grid is always broken. This game is perfectly imperfect. Waiting for mods.
If you having stuttering issues with a high end graphics card try to lower the power of it in msi afterburner or else, it will put less stress on your cpu and make the game run smoother without losing fps
My biggest issue is the zoning tool. I would at least like to know with an indicator what road the cells are facing. To bad, they improved so many aspects, but zoning looks like a downgrade to me.

please link do save game ?

Remember, it doesn't matter how well it's optimized or how amazing it looks if the game is not fun
Bro im actually overwhelmed at how good this is, i started building my new city in cs2 then watched this video and i have now been humbled, lol.
My city looks like crap compare to anything I see online. I'm very bad at detailing..
yh i feel you.
@@matthieulambinet9522
The amount of greatness you can build is insane
I’m a gamer who likes the game, cities skylines. Imperatur is an artist who likes the canvas, cities skylines.
Key Walls, vineyard style detailing and the classic grid, yup still imperatur!
Non contest master of Cities Skyline Licence.
You're the Best! 🙌🏼
WOW! Just wow! You are talented! You can melt lead on my laptop after about an hours play from the heat, you must have an absolute beast!
I‘m rn still on minimun specs bro
You were the master of CS ...now you are the master of CS 2. It's really nice to see how you builds cities, greetings from PL :)
respect for patient bushwork! love your cities.
yeah, really waitin tools for it
Took about half an hour😂
Great and inspiring work, as always! Would love to see a terrain tool video, as i am really struggling with that!
Overcharged egg did one 😋
I think, for aesthetic purposes it's better to remove pedestrian crossings when they are very close to each other, like at 21:35, to keep only one of them (as I remember, game now allows to do that)
I also like the new music selection!
tell me to git gud in CSL2 without saying it
Imperatur: hold my beer
but for real, you're doing awesome builds as always, keep it up!
I've been really liking CS2! Even though it doesn't perform well, I still get 25-30 fps, which is not bad. Your videos are always amazing!
Thanks:)

I can't believe I have to wait until spring to play this game. Your City looks so effortlessly beautiful!😥🥰
Woah nice to see someone else building in this map!
The roads in this game are amazing but more touchy then I expected. I didn’t realize how much I depended on move it for fine tweaks! I was instinctively going for my preset button! So much to learn from watching these vids!
man this game is hell for someone with OCD
I get mad and delete my save if something bugs me too much 😭😂 at least there's back up saves 👍
Love how good Imperator makes his cities! Wish I had that skill.
Unfassbar was hier in Vanilla schon möglich ist. Echt vielversprechend, bin gespannt was du da noch rausholen kannst.
CS2 is great if you can get passed the performance issues. I got passed most of them by changing the graphics to medium and making the CPU focus on framerate, so the only issue is the occasional freeze, which lasts like 5 seconds. the only big problem I'm still having is the zip file glitch thing, which sometimes you can just dismiss, and other times you have to restart the game
May I ask which setting allows the game to focus on CPU regarding the framerate?
@@Asderkink I forget exactly what it’s called but it’s in the general tab. Shouldn’t be hard to find, but the default setting is “balanced”
Cs2 is an amazing game!! But it has lots of performance issues which they should fix😢Btw im loving this vid❤❤
What's annoying for me is that I don't have fps lag but I have lag spikes that sometimes crash the game, I'm assuming I'm going to have to spend hours in the settings finding the cause
I have played it for some hours now and I love the game. But the game feels unfinshed. I hope they launch some good updates soon
@@1DontNoclip for me in general is just very laaggy idk what happened cause yesterday it was so smooth
@@spurs_2052 i agree cause the game lags a lot and there are also no props...
You have to change the graphics settings in advanced 😬
All else aside, the road and terraforming tools in C:S2 are really amazing! So smooth... great combo wuth Imperatur's skills! 😊
All that work to individually place the vineyards and they disappear when you zoom out 😭
Lmao true
With videos like that I feel like I don't need Cites Skylines 1 anymore 😂
This was fun to watch! 👍
incredible, CS2 vanilla road building is practically the same as CS1 with the mods, only the "move" is missing.
Move it is definitely missing..
Prop-line tool? Even better: a vine network! Next level dedication there fella. I wonder if you can stack rail and road on a bridge...
You can, I’ve seen it in other videos
Then I'll give it a try when I unlock a suitable tile I reckon... thanks @@adept5500
The vineyards around the castle are very similar to Cochem, Germany.
That's a goreus city youve made! looks more natural than the others on youtube
its amazing that you are able to run it.
25:45 those cars doing U turns on that expressway could lead to backup when developed in the future. Might want a divider or something
You can use some auto mouse cliker for placing trees. I use GS auto clicker. You can set hotkey to start fast mouse clicking and drag the mouse. It helps while we haven't prop line tool
I do the same thing! Life saver on the hand 👌
Im using the same map, yet you've done so much more to make the roads wayyy more interesting than what i was able to put out.

I am here, once again, jaw dropped on what you come up with. Gotta rename my first CS2 city "crappy town" in comparison 😅
😂
My friend, you are a maestro with the terrain tools. Bravo!! 👏👏
29:05 so the road allows both a left turn to eventually make a right or a right off-ramp to make a right
30:20 Mouse: "Just let me die" xD
i bet that whit this layout of roads you will have nice traffic jam however looks really great. Im impress how you use landscape mine doesnt work so fine :(
I played it for a while now. It misses some basic stuff. the city does not feel really alive like CS1 did. Basicly, parks feel empty, the lack of animated people in parks, playgrounds and dogparks (i havent seen any people inj those tbh), or animated emergency services (stretchers for ambulance, policemen, firefighters) is dissapointing.

You’re so talented man
Song in game - fantastic ! thanks for good music
Very nice !! Is it possible to share the save game before it's finish? I'm interested to see it closely on my PC...
Had to buy a Ryzen 9 and 4090 to get the damn thing to run (I’d been contemplating a major upgrade for a while and I finally pulled the trigger) and man is it a crazy crazy beautiful simulation. I JUST WISH IT HAD PROCEDURAL ZONING!!!
24:50 Lets goooo! No more weird "hitbox" behind tunnel nodes!
I'm enjoying cs:2 so far. I thought I wouldn't able to run it, but it's going pretty smooth.
This is the first cs game im ACTUALLY diving into. And I really wanna try and get on your level. My cities look wank.
the building is massive ! but i think there is a problem with the expressway network at 11:10 , in the first interchange that you made, cars are going in the highway before other cars leaving it, and i think it can make traffic issues...
I think that are the normal design flaws of a cloverleaf interchange
I'm loving the game so far. I was afraid my 3060 couldn't run the game well but the performance seems fine on medium settings
Man, you are crazy)) Do you really love vine so much?😂
You make it look so easy. :)
I’m loving every bit of cs2. My pc is below minimum specs and yet the game runs so smoothly!! No complaints from me at all.
can you tell me your specs? thank you
Mine is too (CPU at least (Ryzen 5 3550), GPU is GTX 1650 which is a bit above I believe, plus 16 gb ram) and it runs decently, even on high graphics. Definitely missing some features from cs:1 (bike infrastructure, parks (the non-ploppable kind) and how much bigger most utilities are compared to cs1), but it is a new experience and viewed as that it is an amazing game, which will only get better.

Im ok with tree aging, just wish it was an adjustable slider, to set my own scale of growth.
Just incredible. 😧
It runs ok with medium and some high graphic settings on an rtx 3060 12gb vram with a 5700x and 32gb ram
What an amazing build so far, I’m loving it, but I’m still yet to see someone not build a tram loop anywhere 😅

Imperatur my boy, you always did a great job✌👍, no matter it's Cities Skylines 1 (original) or Cities Skylines 2
I wish i was able to be a npc in one of your towns and just go around and see everything!
Can't wait for all the suburban development and for more trees to be planted!
First ♥ Love you content! Thank you!
Yes:) i‘m glad to hear that❤️
can you please do a tutorial on terrain editing? I don't mean the tools but the method you use to level the terrain when you are building, please :))
liking the Game so far (my fps is currently 17 on medium and various settings disabled on steam Deck) but still playable. although it dose crash after 1hr so hopefully they will improve this. as many have had same issue on other pcs
game is out for 2 days and bro is already building all this... i fell inadequate in every way
Hey, @imperatur, i rly love yr videos. Can u tell, how to swap direction of the one-way road?
Drag over it in the direction you want with the upgrade tool and left mouse click
Big thanks to u@@imperatur, wish u to get 300 000 subs!))) So i have one more Q. Have you managed to achieve a positive income on the balance sheet of the city?
(I have problems with my english now, and used google translate to say that, sry if it sounds wrong)
the bridge has 2 way roads instead of the 1 ways
Loving the builds so far! Although, I'm not sure if I'm a huge fan of having an incinerator plant right next to the vineyard...
I would like to see them at Jersey barriers and guard rails
incredible vehicle, road, building graphic
but tree and bridge trembling
There doesn’t appear to be any props or even fencing. I get that’s what DLCs are for, but some would be good and you’d think fences were a basic item.
I think at the end you left the highway bridges as 4 lane roads instead of 4 lane one-way highways.
Is there a fix to the Not Enough Customers? No matter what I do I can’t get rid of it
i have the same problem
Love everything you make! Question though; I notice that through the entire build the city is always losing money (even a loan), is there a point where it goes bankrupt or do cities in cs2 eventually start making money? Haven't been able to do so myself

@@GraffitOwl thanks for the tip!
It actually gains money even if the balance is negative
But yeah i also live from milestone to milestone
Tested it out yesterday. Building quay is a nightmare. Leveling roads is very poor if not terraform first. Zoning grid is always broken. This game is perfectly imperfect. Waiting for mods.
True bro
Very interested to see what the game will be like when it releases on console
muito bom o jeito que vc usa a ferramenta de afundar o terreno.
Gostei
Love your way to build!! Can you share your savegame file?
Still GOAT of CS2
Runs well apart from when I go to build anything the screen goes orange😢
Sometimes I feel like I am watching someone develop carpal tunnel😅. Beautiful work--especially given how little we have to work with vanilla.
Heres an idea. California series but in cs2!!!
Not really possible without palm trees:(
If you having stuttering issues with a high end graphics card try to lower the power of it in msi afterburner or else, it will put less stress on your cpu and make the game run smoother without losing fps
Hi! @imperatur to draw those tree lines at the end, have you considered tree brushing an entire lot and then erasing the negative?
awesome build btw, really looking forward to watch some more :)
nice city, well, I wanna to know where makes your idea
My biggest issue is the zoning tool. I would at least like to know with an indicator what road the cells are facing.
To bad, they improved so many aspects, but zoning looks like a downgrade to me.
Sehr cooles Video, aber bitte kürzer, aber dafür mehr Videos 👍
Die RUclips meta mittlerweile sind lange videos ich hab da selber kb drauf 🥲
This is insane
Bros the vanilla sensei
Is that the in game road layout system? Looks much more realistic and fluid than the first game!
First time I see you get loans :)
I just wanted to place that power plant and was broke af
@@imperatur yeah, it was just so surprised! Thank you for your videos. I strated to build my own cities more beatiful and "alive" thanks to you!
Do you guys know when paradox mods will be available for cs2?
Imperatur i follow you until.... Until i dont know but many times. Which pc config for this game you have? Ive many problems.
What happened to the button to change the direction of the roads, I don't see it anywhere
Will you still play cs1?
Idk probably not in the near future
Are u still going to finish ur Last Angeles build? Ik it’s not done yet. Ur still working on it right?
ur very talented
