    The fact that you can do this from the start in the game is awesome. In CS1 you would have to build up a small support area first and unlock so much stuff before you could build a town like this with the limited money at the start.

    You just earned a subscriber. I’ll say honestly, out of all of the content that I’ve seen so far, the way you planned out your farms and rural pockets of residential was absolutely superb….best I’ve seen today; and it gave me some ideas for when the game drops. Some of the farms are a little funky looking at this time but I think the way you planned it out helped it blend significantly better than what I’ve seen others do so far. Looking forward to episode 2.

    For English towns and cities, I like naming them using a bit of wordplay with English pronunciation rules. Make little names that sound plausible until you try to say them out loud, and you find yourself saying something else entirely. Examples include Strawbury, Hamcester, Moncester, Egsenham, Seaswick, Spelcaster, or Whytewich.

      I live in Northern Ireland so most place names look like gibberish compared to England’s place names because they come from anglicised versions of the original Irish names, so in cities skylines I name places in Irish based on the geography and then I anglicise it. It’s so fun. For example, a town that’s beside or inside a valley. I will call it Glenn géar, meaning Steep valley in Irish, then I will anglicise it to “Glengar” to give it its English name.

  • @JamJarzz
    @JamJarzz Год назад +65

    I think one of the biggest selling points for the game is the development tree. With more variety and specializations it could really make each city different. Like a tree that taps into the media demand allowing the city to host a movie industry, or a vineyard distributer, not to mention the various upgrades to buildings. It's got a lot more potential than CS1. You can see that from how accurately you caught midlands UK in the beta build, which you couldn't for a few years after base CS1.

    • @xergiok2322
      @xergiok2322 Год назад +1

      You could specialize your city with or without a tech tree though. I really don't see why they included it. Seems like a gamey feature without a real world equivalent.

      @@xergiok2322 I agree. One of the other CS2 videos showed the transport tech-tree, you have to unlock trains before you can unlock trams.
      Not realistic at all, should be able to choose from one (or both), not that much difference between tram and train.
      Stuff like this made me have to mod CS1, just to make a city that starts with a railway station.

    @jckblck Год назад

    The rural area looks about right, and hedgerows and mature trees are needed! Drainage ditches, coppices, ponds, woods, hills, rivers, canals... your English town is a little too grid based, most towns started around a market square, or a crossroad, or a river crossing, and are very very tightly packed in old town centres, with 20th century estates being more spacious-ish?
    A good example of a small historic town to learn from would be Buckingham.

    They need to add the option to make the roads "not zonable" so that the Streets/Roads in the countryside are just that.
    + I don't like the animation of tiny houses being built with a GIANT crane
    + We need a color override or LUT. These Houses all seem so gray. CS1 was a lot more colorful in its core.

    It's super annoying to me that all properties are still basically.... squares/rectangles. They can't have odd geometric shaped properties still. When you curve the road, you lose developable property. Feels very Simcity 4 ish.

    This looks amazing for what we get in a base game. Can't wait to make a European alpine city in a similar way once it is released.
    Current house models look a bit repetitive. I think it should be possible to force sims to build more houses of different sizes by zoning in a more granular patchy fashion instead of filling the whole block at once. Plus mix EU and US low-rise zoning.

    Es built on new game engine? Et seems antiquated like Cities: One with mods? I am not blown away by the assets. This doesn't seem like it would be great at 8k or 16k. If Cities hasn't developed their own game engine by now, IDK what they did with the 500 mil in profits from selling the first game.

    Small fields, lots of hedges, never been to Lincolnshire then, and the way you tried to describe England. Lol. Yeah ok, and never changed to left hand drive. Oh dear serious fail! Which means you know nothing of Great Britain 😂

    Wow, that looks amazing! I've always wanted to try something like this myself, but I have a very hard time designing something like this. Very impressed with your skill. Lekker bezig kerel!

    Maybe in the future you could add some "modern developments" in the suburbs which aren't typically terraced/row houses in the UK, but sort of housing estates with cul-de-sacs

    Just beautiful👌 wish we will get better tools for placing trees, random rotation or even rows like with roads. I will play on console again, so I’ll stay away from any mod😅
    So far the best city in CS2 i have seen so far👌👌
