What is nice about this game is that there are so many ways you can play it and everyone has their own style. It's pretty impressive seeing you play on speed 4 with very few pauses.
09:09 Once you have incinerators (or if you are exporting all garbage), you no longer need to expand your landfill. In fact, if you disconnect your landfill from transportation, it will slowly decompose to zero. All landfill tiles have to be, I think, 2-4 tiles away from all roads and rails.
Nice video man, I just bought the game again digitally and the nostalgia is insane. One of my all time favorite games. Looking forward to more of your videos.
01:11 Those "T" intersections on the highway. 1. I know you are not going for a visually accurate game here, but for those who are, you can see that traffic does not travel straight through the "T". They must make the turn, exit a ramp, enter a ramp and then turn back onto the original highway. 2. I think other players have done some testing to prove that this is not just visually wrong, but that it does, technically, prevent traffic from flowing straight through and creates traffic congestion.
I made a Mt. Fuji city of Tokyo. Called it MetroTokyo in this game. 1.1 million Sims, over 42 million Simoleons made, everything built, zones placed well, and not a complaint in sight from my citizens. Lol. This game is nostalgia, man. And childhood. I was literally a little kid when this came out in 1999. Great times!
Yup, when the game was new, it was pre 9/11 back in the day, I always tried to put a lot of New York landmarks into the city, since I lived in NYC as a kid.
@@Scott89878 would be cool if you add some landmarks to your next city if you do it again. They don’t add much, they’re just for aesthetics, although I believe they boost tourism and land value to your city, don’t quote me on that one though.
I do later on in the series. The better ones don't have to be built next to the dump, while the cheap one has to be built next to the dump to function. So I opt to build the cheap ones next to the dump and when I run out of space in that area dedicated to garbage, I build the energy incinerators in another part of town, usually near an airport or spaceport, because it's aesthetically pleasing in that zone.

I build a lot because sometimes I don't immediately see that the garbage situation is going south. And landfills work up to 5 tiles from a road.

I'm gonna have to record part 6 soon.
Yo please tell me where to buy?!?!?
Been dying to share with my children

My cities don't really have traffic problems, so I think those T-highways work. I have built like 50 cities like the one I did in my video many times.
@@Scott89878 I haven't done any tests on it so I can't say for sure.

Your city is really well laid out and organized. Do you plan your cities on paper first or just build as you go?
Was playing this yesterday and apparently you can place the actual twin towers as landmarks in Unlimited.

I have the game on Gog and I am glad that they did not remove them from the game.

How on earth did your power plant area not go radioactive after the nuclear plants collapsed?
Because it's not something that happens 100% of the the time, I've only had it happen a handful of times in all my years of playing this game.
I think he turned disasters off in the first video.
With all that money why not build the better incinerators that can process more garbage and also generate electricity?

@@Scott89878 The incinerators don't have to be next to a landfill. They will function without ANY landfill at all.
