Your list actually encouraged me to use "Winter Hills" map. I'm on console so no mods and 9 tile limit, etc. I thought to myself, I'll absolutely annihilate that hill and use the water source in the middle of it to spread more water around the map. Making it into a little oasis of low-lying portlike land. The occasional thing on a hill, e.g. a water tower or an observatory, but aside from that it's gonna be urbanly pretty.
The farmland is gonna be difficult. I'm determined to have at least one of every building functional (excluding space elevator because its impossible skyward pillar ruins the look of anything). So it'll be a zoo / farm area (pretending the farming isn't farming and is part of the zoo) as far as animals go, on one of the tiny spots of fertile land, and on another, a forest / farm area (for crops and such). Plus another spot (there are three within the tiles I chose) with factories, into which I'll place the "greenhouse" versions of the fields. Will be tight fitting it in to go over the "too inefficient" limit where you get a warning symbol. But I already know such things are possible if you set your mind to them, from doing similar on a different map that had hardly any access to ore (unless you wanted to give up an outside connection I didn't want to give up).
Ships are always the first thing I plan around. Even more urgently than resources or other transport links, due to the way console has no option to adjust shipping routes, so you have to rely on a really ugly straight line automated as-the-crow-flies to the nearest bit of default shipping loop (goodness me I wish I could change that, looks so bad). So I plan water there and terraform around that. Next thing's making sure I have one road access above what's likely to end up being the water level, which on this map is sorted thanks to those high bridges going onto the mountain. Also got as much of the mountain's land as I could so I could sink the thing, leaving only a few side-hills to redraw in. Goddamn 9 tiles, pshh.
Next thing's making sure there's a flowing river left over at least somewhere, so I can have it run beside stuff and deepen it enough to get tuna access going. Surely the most tricky of the fish types by far. Everything else's easy. After that I set my fisheries up to behave much more like patrol boats, so I can pretend I've got a coastguard. So long as their route goes "incidentally" through the correct fish types for long enough, I won't get the inefficiency symbols popping up. Curiously enough, the safe fishing policies actually help with that - for the longest time I kept getting afraid to turn them on because I thought it'd mean my efficiency would go down. But no, lowering the yeilds also lowers how much each boat can carry, so as a percentage, it actually INCREASES the efficiency ratings! Took me ages to understand that! Far as I'm concerned they're automatic policies now - anything that can decrease yeilds is a bonus. Screw profit if my city can look better, right? And no pesky warning symbols always looks better.
Of course I could always just make something for visual-mode-only, and just not care about the symbols at all. But I like to do as much as I can, it just feels nice that way.
The reason why the snowfall maps vary so much in quality with janky highways and rail intersections is because two maps, Winter Hills and Frozenshire, were released as bonus in 2018, not with the original 2016 DLC. In those two years, the devs really improved in map making, so the original snowfall maps look awful in comparison to the bonus ones.
I was watching this earlier and fell asleep in the middle. xD Egg's voice is so soothing. Came back to finish it now.
OE, great list, as always. Great to see the original map and compare it with Noveria's remastered map.
Also, time to add Ilos to your video descriptions. :)
Been waiting for this, well done and i pretty much completely agree. Would like them to create some new Snowfall maps but they haven't done it yet.
I get strong extinct shield volcano vibes from the "dome" in Winter Hills
That last dome map is really the main snowfall map I play, I kinda like it
I hope you do the disaster dlc next.
Btw great video as always.
Quality content as always Egg 💙💙
My God that last map certainly deserves the crap map tier and the sound affect cracked me up!!!
Im a simple man I know lol
Another great list mate 👍
Lmao it killed me too. No matter how old we get, a fart will always be funny
@@OVERCHARGEDEGG damn straight
Congrats on 40k!🎉🎉🎉
Thanks bro!
I play on console so I really appreciate your videos. I think Frozenshire and Snowy Coast are the only Snowfall maps I like, and Winter Hills is a good contender for worst vanilla CS map.
You made the snow fall map video on a snow day for me
I tried Winter Hills before when i first started playing. The start tile is not easy at all. It's very terrainy. But i'll take that as a challenge to build it again now.
Could you do green city’s next I don’t have much of any dlc and that one is highly recommended by a lot of people but I want to know what the maps are like
Congratulations on 40k
9:49 are you just zooming around in cinematic mode, or did you actually unlock 81 tiles first? Cause it looks to me like you didn't unlock 81 tiles, and when you look at tiles that haven't been unlocked, they don't draw in the same as when they are
I like the mass effect ambience .
After you are done with the maps on the DLC, could you do a Workshop Maps video. Not a tier list obviously (way too many), I don’t think a “top 10”, or the like, but more like a “5 Recommended Boreal Maps”
Thanks I can start snow city now!
i would love to hear your opinions on the park life maps!
The floating highways, are they also in console? 😃
I LOVE island builds, so Icy Islands would be a step higher for me.
I've got a feeling, and I could be completely wrong, but I think Frozen Shire might have been a later addition to the snowfall DLC... (Is this even possible?)
I'm sure I didn't see it when I tried my first ever snowfall map not long after it came out on console, but by the time I got round to doing another it was there. This might explain why the train junctions are so much better...?
Ya its possible, they added Frozenshire and Winter Hills in a later update (they added it on patch 1.11.1)
@@spuffyfettisyes5605 well there you go then. Thanks for confirming my suspicions.
The highway roads do not float when you unlock the tile.
me no like snow, but great insights as per norm. :)
winter hills looks like a jelly donut lol
Isn’t the roadway clipping only due to not being in an unlocked square? I know I’ve seen similar things that go away when I unlock the tile
I'm honestly not sure, it could have been. If someone can confirm, I'll pin the comment cos that should be known 👍
Are you going to do this for all DLC's? (I'd love that)
I am :)
It's quite interesting to see how much the maps have improved over the years. Snowfall is probably one of the worst DLCs in terms of the maps. I mean, it even had the first crap map. 😄 The snow is a cool perk though.
×cough× Icy Waters ×cough×
Oh crap, I'm building a city on a crap map 😂 The slopes definitely make it challenging
Snow. Yuck!!! Great video as always.
Thanks mate!
It took 33 seconds?!? 😆
Knew you'd enjoy that
I've built big cities on all the maps but never get anywhere on Snowfall maps. The white is just so boring. It's hard to look at. I don't think I ever got over 10K before I quit. The whitewashed look of the maps isn't something I like. I know Egg is a tram guy. But I'm not a huge user of trams. So, for me it's the only DLC that was a waste of money. I don't use the maps. I never much use the trams. There nothing in the DLC at all I like. Never understood why a Dev puts that much work into a map that you never see if you are a base game player. If you use 81 tiles and see 90% of the map is worthless. Why design something you never see or can use. They say 51% buildable. But it's not close. They are judging that on flat. When the flat(ish) is 3 or 4 tiles wide through a whole tile where is mostly mountains it's a waste of time designing it. It looks nice. But a base game you never see any of it. If you are building on 81 tiles you see it but never use it. They probably took week design it. Then got tired of it and did a 1/2 ass job on the roads and rails.
This video could have been 2 seconds long - Crap Map Pack lol ! I'm joking just not a fan of building with all the WHITE for long periods.
