    I'm so happy you included a native roundabout tool. Here in Slagelse, Denmark where I live there are so many roundabouts, and even some cul-de-sacs in the north eastern part of town, so this'll make it so much easier to copy the features I'm used to.

    Great example of people first city design! love it. I want more of this @CitiesSkylines really we need more people first city design tools to build cities that fit into the 21st century. I still feel like CS 2 is based on a 60s modernist american mindset of city development and it is frankly disappointing. Less space for cars and more space for people. why can't we decide to build community services without dedicated parking. A school in a city would not need a square kilometer for parking space... simply a good public transport connection. and don't get me started on bike infrastructure. where are the bikes? CS feels outdated already on launch. this is simply not on par with modern city planning design. make it more sustainable and more people and community centric. we don't want another car infrastructure simulator..

Especially the way the one-way roads work together with the pedestrian roads inside the blocks is awesome.

    13:28 The only thing I would do is shift the parking lots to the side of the super block that traffic flows directly into. That way it doesn't hit the pedestrian area at all minimizing everything but service cars.. If that makes sense. So like top right corner, but one block in of the super block. That way its inner city. But omg I love this!

    Excellent showcase! That is fabulous news about the variations you get when placing parks. I had no idea that was the case with what we've seen so far. So, something I noticed that fits with this (unless I got it completely wrong), Is that I saw two creators place the same unique building (pop music stars home, I think) and they were both completely different buildings. So unless I got that wrong, it looks like this same concept applies to more than just parks. That takes away some concern about every city looking the same with the same assets. Anyway, great vid, so glad you pushed through!

    Love your new little intro, this is really really lovely! 😻 I think going with the superblocks is an awesome idea, these are great to put all the new features in C:S2 to the test, aren't they? ^-^ So nice what the base game already has for us, stadiums, parking lots, trams, pedestrian roads are all really nice features that were only added much much later in C:S1. And these new things seem really really cool, the road tools are looking so so smooth and nice, aren't they? Seems like the game is now MUCH more flexible when it comes to connecting different roads together and so on 💛 And i love that they allow you to add different things like trees, grass, wide sidewalks and so on to ALL roads in a pretty modular way, that has so much potential :) Totally agree on the cute landfill :D I think that custom shape feature is really really cool and they apparently used it for lots of different buildings and aspects of the game ^.^ For example these little family farms are looking great, those new fields using that tool are awesome 💛 Really liking your road- & city-layout, looking and working really nice 💛 It's really neat that these cul-de-sacs are possible using the roundabout tool, isn't it? :) I love these pedestrian paths, too, they are integrating into the roads so smoothly ❤ And it is really great, in my opinion, that you can directly use the path tool to create pedestrian crossings on roads, that makes so so much sense for the workflow! 😻 And speaking of paths, that covered bridge looks really really cool, it's so nice that the game has these options! 🎉I hope they will add more of those to the game in the future via DLCs & CCPs and so on ^-^ I'm also really glad that the game is much less grey and so on when you turn off the fog, feeling and looking so much better, in my opinion ^-^ Though i guess at least for now, every single folly-grown tree will be really precious :D Joe the Tree says hello 👋 I feel like there will be tons of little features and tricks that the community as a whole will discovers once the game fully releases, I'm looking forward to seeing what crazy things people come up with :D Tiny example: Around 10:13 in your video, when you're building the pedestrian bridge, it looks like the road intersection would kinda automagically adjust itself to make room for a pillar if you place the bridge right over the road/intersection, doesn't it? kinda wonder how much flexibility the game really has in these situations 🤔 Obviously there's also quite a bit to criticize and of course plenty of room for improvement, but i kinda don't feel like reiterating and focusing on that right now :D Honestly, i kinda imagine that playing this new game must have been really really overwhelming, especially within the first hours of it. So many new things, so many things are different, so much to learn and look at and be mindful about. And then all of this is of course paired with the stress that comes with making videos about it and so on. The reason why I'm mentioning this so specifically is that I want you to know that I REALLY REALLY appreciate you putting in this time, this work and this energy for us to give us this wonderful first look, I really love it! ❤💛💚 I am very much looking forward to seeing the next "episode" of this, it's exciting to possibly see public transport and so on if you'll be allowed to show it off to us then! ❤ Once again thank you so so much for the video, really love it! 💛 And I also REALLY REALLY loved hanging out with you and watching all the other ones, that was so so much fun! 😻 See you on Discord of course 👋 ALL the best 💚

    I'm back, just in time for CS2:Barcelona! Now roundabouts are standard, all trees are saplings, and population is just a number. Strange times, indeed! At 7:45 the blue car with a camper trailer is shaking wildly. The same for the trailer a couple of cars behind. Maybe a bug, but really minor. Yay for ped bridges! Not so yay for parking, maybe? The game treats those like they are a public service, but in my city they are just another business type. IIRC, parking lots were also a commercial asset in Sim City 3000. The way they are done now seems a bit fetishistic, innit? That high school is so fine, centred on the road like that. Those farms already look better than the last game, and that's before DLC! The parks are also nice, but should occupy better the available space. So good that you are liking the game so far!

    My one pet peeve about CS1 was houses and other buildings not coming with props (like fences and a backyard/front yard). So it took me hours just to detail a small neighborhood. Now at least all the buildings have props to make them more realistic. I hope this sets a standard for the modding community to make buildings with props in them already 🙂

    Really lovely to see someone build in the way that I'm excited to try building in the new game! I was thinking to do even more pedestrian-only but this relatively conventional version is very good for the demonstration, and it seems like there's no real transit available this early in the game. Also very much appreciated going into detail on the advanced road mechanics since I've only seen a little about that. I think most people doing this (or at least most of the ones KZread showed me) were trying to fit as much content as possible into the 30 minutes. I don't know about the landfill right up against the water. I'm sure the game doesn't model the pollution from that but it would still bother me, thinking about all the flyaway trash winding up in waterway. Probably my biggest disappointment with CS2 is that the parks are ploppables. I really preferred the Parklife system where you could define a park anywhere and make it however you want just with its internal features. It's a shame to see that while agriculture gets a so much nicer system, parks get worse instead. Even though the assets themselves are very nice, but imagine having full control over all those variations? Thank you for the fun pleasant video that goes into such nice detail.

    Yes, I love that. We have pedestrian options right off the bat. I do also hope for a little more flexibility with the park spaces. I think this game has a lot of potential, and a really good base to work from. I couldn’t really see how things could be added to this. Yes, in hindsight, it probably wasn’t the best placement. However, once we’re off the island, I’m thinking will re-purposed that space and turn it into a park and get a recycling center and make a new dump inland. Glad you enjoyed it overall excited to show you guys more.

    Edit : looks like you cant house on a round about. However we can still make them. In the uk its not uncommon to have round abouts with houses round them in a cul de sac. I will 100% be implementing this into my cities depending on how/if you can put houses around the roundabout. Alot of shapes tbh. Where my mum lives theres a small rectangular green at the end of the road with houses all round. The road kicks left into a narrow lane that takes you round the back to parking and garages. Not sure this one is possible without mods.

    Hey, I just wanted to tell you, your video about cs2 made me the most happy and excited about the game out of all the other creators i watchen (about 10 id guess). What differents you, from all the others, is that you really seem to make an effort to build a liveable city. In the last few years, id taken an intrest in how we designe our cities and that car dependency and un-walkable/cyclable enviorments is not something anyone should aim for. Every since i developed that intrest, i could not play cities skylines 1, because (even tho there is plenty of public transport) you cant really build pedestrian oriented/liveable cities (even with the pedestrian dlc). I had the same feelings for cs2, but you showed me that is is (more) possible than in cs1 to build a real liveavle place. So I just wanted to thank you for your effort!

    Very cool layout! All the blocks of the same size is reminiscent of Barcelona. One thing I would say though is that pedestrian bridge is really tall! Is there a way to lower it? Unless due to topography, most traffic and pedestrian overpasses are only just tall enough for trucks and busses to fit beneath, usually 4-5m~

    Path and street building is much more smoother than in CS1. It was always such a pain to not being able to just pull them through all the way. Not sure about the trees. Having to wait until they have grown to see how it looks like, not that appealing. Maybe they build in a toggle or Modders will fix this. The cemetary looks so great. I really hope they put in a line tool in the final release. From the looks of it, gamepley is slower then in CS1. The ending 🤣 Love the new intro.
