In case you don’t know, the subs run faster if you have rounded curves; the more gently curved the better. Like a straight line is best, and it goes slower on a curve the sharper you bend the track. So ... your straight line to a point, 180° and straight line back out is about as slow as it can go 😉 You did pretty good though!
Drew you should play this again. Also if you do you need to have lines for certain areas, one for the north, below the river etc. I play this game and that seems to work
I have never played the game, but I am a big fan of it and I watch a lot of videos of Mini Metro. 1. I've learned, with all the videos I have watched, that creating lines looking like a circle helps for the train does not change direction every time and you can control how many trains can run per a line direction. It is also faster if you have not remarked. 2. Another tip is to not create lines with 3+ same station's geometry form in a row, or the train won't stop at certain stations because it will always be full. Even if you have carriage(s), it won't be efficient at some point, which is when you will have more passengers in the network and it starts getting uncontrollable. (Usually after the 1000 first passengers successfully travelled.)
In the DC area they call the subway the Metro because it’s the only train company that is there. A name for the urban area of NoVA, DC, and southern Maryland is the DC Metro area.
That's because it's a metropolitan area - an area around a metropolis. Metro trains are named for being metropolitan (i.e. "of a metropolis"), not the other way around.
When you said we need a national disaster or sth so people can stop using the subway....... DREW are you nostradamus or you just had inside information ? :D
Drew I love your vids even more than I love mini metro and that's a lot so plz play more and also play mini motorways when it comes out I would enjoy that I am tasty
The traffic in Atlanta is almost as bad as L.A. mostly because of the airport and the suburbs refuse to let any subways happen and it is acutely the most annoying thing.
Used to play this a lot Protip: you can pause and completely demolish all lines with little consequences, so I would do that a lot to keep the lines efficient
LA does have a metro system. Its called Metro, goes from Union Station to Long Beach, Santa Monica, North Hollywood, Van Nuys, etc. Theres even a rail system out to Riverside and San Bernandino.
Drew, heads up, only like 2 squares will ever spawn. They're incredibly rare. Circles are common, trianlges uncommon, square is rare, then everything else is mythic. You should always try to configure squares as the interchange if possible.
Probably the greatest crime against humanity Los Angeles has committed (and there are many) is forcing all those millions of people to use _cars_ and not having a decent subway
Naturals are trains the Tonnele go underground underneath cities to move large amounts of people but sometimes go elevated or above ground on most systems
“Alright Clearly we have a problem in this concentration center” Drew don’t let RUclips hear that
why are there no replies
I don't get it

Dude he is observing the trains go
@@foolroblox3231 yeah but hes still *interacting* with the trains
This isn't what I subscribed for time to leave.

5:22 a pentagon appears
'' _Oh, a weird star shape!_ ''

thank god i'm not the only one who still plays this game
Try finding the sub reddit for it
Same here
Diogo David what’s it called
Same
Tom Carey mini meteo
You should play this game in spectator mode.
"Berlin is this the Rhine?"... I can't even...
Drew: "Weird Star Shape!"
Everyone Else: 🤦🏻♂️
5:23 "Weird star shape"
It's a pentagon, Drew.
PENTAGON!
Heiwiik facepalms
1:36 when you’re unaware your city has a metro system
He's so dumb. It's even called "Metro"
Drew Durnil:plays a game
Us: *Wait that's illegal*
9:20 That’s New Jersey, not NY
You’re an expert on US geography so you are expert nuke.
Well, you has to know which is NY and NJ, if you want to nuke them...
Thank you fat jesus crist our fat lord and saveyour
The island in the middle, is Manhattan. To the east, is Brooklyn and Queens. To the north, is the Bronx. To the west, is NJ.
MinaxSocietas specifically Newark, NJ
Drew died. This is his clone. Drew would never play a geme he just observes.
ikr
- So Drew, how to fix metro?
- BE HOMELESS!
Do AI only
William Lorentzen uh
alright who's gonna tell him
Wut
That is not possible, stupid!
Drew you should play this again. Also if you do you need to have lines for certain areas, one for the north, below the river etc. I play this game and that seems to work
7:09
"Oh no not the diamonds"
Instant Steven Universe vibes
Tip: Keep a spare line to connect really busy stations towards the end.
try HK one.. stations pop up so quickly!
From 0:13 to 0:17 you have a savage discovering civilization
Play more of this game
5:23 weird star shape is literally a pentagon its like on of the first shapes you learn
Drew uses his map making knowledge and his immense math skills to become the ultimate observer engineer
Create a metro leading to ISPS house
A pentagon = "Weird star shape!" Drew 2019
Drew's actually managing the subway system better than the actual MTA.
Drew would be the worst mayor
“Be homeless” nice
wow you actually went and played mini metro
"Just kidding, I actually really like Cornwall when they get independent." 😶 "That doesnt matter." XD
Idk why but that cracked me up hard XD
1:39 So you don't know that LA does have a metro.
Pentagon: hey.
Drew: PARASTOPSIGN
Pentagon: wtf?
You should try the Osaka map!

I fear the day drew becomes a person of power or a city planner
Don't worry, my trusted sniper should do the trick
5:23 weird star shape
Please play this again, people would love it today
Drew: not gonna make 3 circles in a row
Also drew: makes a line with 3 circles in a row
At least you did better than the "Deutsche Bahn" (The chaotic train company here in germany)
6:22 as a new yorker this part of the video where he makes the metro system is giving me a breakdown
In Spanish the only way of saying "subway" is "metro"
"Suburbano": Im a joke to you
Alex PF 05 Wtf also like that?
No, there’s also “subte”.
Portuguese too
You are such a master metrist.
Damn i should have thought of this
You should’ve not declared war on the USA
yea, those roads ain't enough ya know
Works in winter too
You should've fleed to Argentina like your friends

Said it's not good to go thru 3 circles at once
*Immediately creates a line that goes thru 3 circles*
Did you know that subways use trains?
Drew I love your vids even more than I love mini metro and that's a lot so plz play more and also play mini motorways when it comes out I would enjoy that I am tasty
the irony being the first line he set up in London is actually called the "Circle" line and literally operates in a circle round the city
7:58. It is a Pentagon
The traffic in Atlanta is almost as bad as L.A. mostly because of the airport and the suburbs refuse to let any subways happen and it is acutely the most annoying thing.
I find it hard to believe that Drew did not know the meaning of 'metro'
Or pentagon...
Ben L no offense, but how could either of you find either of those things hard to believe? Ah - a new fan of Drew 😉
Used to play this a lot
Protip: you can pause and completely demolish all lines with little consequences, so I would do that a lot to keep the lines efficient
8:28 he sounds like a plane flying overhead
ApplejuiceAdam I’m dying 😂
when he called a small island between queens and manhattan "long island" i died
I don't have enough tunnels for my metro... The whole damn thing is one giant tunnel!
Drew is the type of guy to pronounce the Thames like it’s spelled
I do!
THE RIVER TEMS
It’s so painful
When your map is london its 9am and its monday when you dont want to get it all stuck nice 😂
Comments on other videos: Drew you should actually play the game
Comments when Drew actually plays: AI/Spectator mode
LA does have a metro system. Its called Metro, goes from Union Station to Long Beach, Santa Monica, North Hollywood, Van Nuys, etc. Theres even a rail system out to Riverside and San Bernandino.
When the lines pile up, delete all off the lines and re format it
Scotland and Cornwall just be chillin' in London
Drew, heads up, only like 2 squares will ever spawn. They're incredibly rare.
Circles are common, trianlges uncommon, square is rare, then everything else is mythic.

When i play this game i usually split the map into different areas and each line will cover each area and it actually works
Oh you played Mini Metro I have that on my Computer it’s really fun!
Probably the greatest crime against humanity Los Angeles has committed (and there are many) is forcing all those millions of people to use _cars_ and not having a decent subway
5:23 Proof that Drew doesn’t know what a pentagon is
Thanks drew, now i'm addicted.
4:43 I’m from Cornwall and the way you said it killed me
Drew durnil in Washington DC:isnt there a weird star shape building here?
drew when he see's a pentagon:uhm para uhhmmm its called Para something
drew when he see's the pentagon: PENTAGON
Nobody:
Drew calling a pentagon "weird star shape":
a metro is a train/railroad system designed specifically for mass transit
Drew : wierd star shape
Me: pentagon
Cornwall is in the Greater London Area?
The more you know!
Apparently the Rhine flows through Berlin now as well
Tobias Hähn I mean ... basically ... right? If you aren’t from Europe of course 😉
Drew can fix the NYC Subway and LA Metro! Los Angeles has a metro but people don’t use it
Drew: *points to Manhattan*
Also Drew: Is this long island?
Today a paintbrush teaches us about a metro system
Mini Metro still doesn't have Boston as a city to play, which is odd, since Boston was the first subway in the USA.
Naturals are trains the Tonnele go underground underneath cities to move large amounts of people but sometimes go elevated or above ground on most systems
New York has Metro Cards to get onto public transport.
He called a Pentagon a weird star shape. YO MRS. REVESON YOU STILL TEACHING GEOMETRY
The guy she tells you not to worry about: "All other capital city metros of Europe"
Me: Helsinki Metro line
We don't have any metro or tram lines in the city where i live, only busses and trolleybusses.
The madlad actually did it
7:43 There's a literal line on the London Tube called the "Circle Line"
If your so bad at the game why don't you make the AI play it and you commentate over it.
You still haven't exploited that idea
Drew: there are no circles in metros
Moscow metro: am i a joke to you?
Drew literally called a pentagon a para-stop sign.
You couldve just made the red line identical to the yellow one. That way you couldve put more trains on what would essentially still be just one line
After seeing a bunch of his videos on Strategy games, I'm REALLY glad Drew doesn't work at the weird star thingy (AKA Parasomething).
The PC version lets you put trains back in the box, mobile doesn't
My guy just called a hexagon a weird star shape 💀
My guy just called a pentagon a hexagon
Actually there is one huge circular line in Berlin and within that circle there are several lines crossing south to north, eadt to west and vice versa
*sees pentagon*
"oh theres the para... the para..... the para something idk"
please do this again with the other maps this game is so entertaining with your commentary and gameplay
him: head you into long island
me: LONG ISLAND REPRESENT!! 🥳
