Thanks for this amazing video, really enjoyed the first episode and I'm eager to now finishing the second. So here's my question: is there any hope that they will remove the random farm buildings spawning in farm land? Or asked differently, do they ask content creators for feedback like that at allot is it more a marketing thing (which would be understandable as well). Hope not scratching any NDA with this. Thx & Best from Germany

Hi @@Lenniitsch! I am not aware of any upcoming changes to the random farm buildings - but they do listen to our feedback and actively encourage it. But tbh I am not sure if anyone has pointed that out as an issue. I myself haven't had that as a concern at least ☺

Excellent video and also want to say how superb your cities are, I've recently discovered the channel and have subscribed because I love how realistic your city builds are. Which brings me to my question nicely, for someone new to Cities, do you think its better now to wait for Cities 2 as some things are easier to do in CS2, or do you think that CS1 is still , currently, the better product because of the wealth of mods and assets available. I imagine many of those will be available for CS2 in time but is CS2 currently very limited in comparison with CS1?

How is the performance compared to CS1 so far? From the recording the frames seem to be really low.

How are the tiny details so far, like when a road is bad quality do you see it? also loved the video :)

"Created a big, low-density single-family neighborhood up here called Northside. 205 single-family houses and extremely car dependent. We've got no public transport out here, there's not even sidewalks on many of the streets. So yeah, 'Murica baby." Wow, this may just be the most realistic recreation of a North American city ever.

Unfortunately, I'm still not convinced. The more I see of CS2, the more I feel it's still going to need some good modding before it will look good. Right now, everything looks so generic and similar that everyone's cities look identical and boring. It's forcing me to hold off on expecting to buy it at release.

@@jpennin1 I've watched about 6 different 2 episode series from YT's, not one has looked the same, it has similar aspects as in he main buildings such as town hall etc but the designs and ideas are practically and individual thought process... This is still basically in early access and the devs have allowed these youtubers to play, upload this content so they can gather more ideas, hence they didnt have contour lines- now they do. they are listening and reading comments. why don't you buy it at the start and try it on your own behalf, not viewing others content and if you dont like it- refund it and wait for the modders to do stuff....

@@jpennin1 I mean yea the textures need more fine tuning but that's a pretty minor issue. Maybe mods with more texture packs would help but the base game is already much better than what's currently in the market. Also, nobody's saying CS2 is better at every aspect than CS1 :D

Beta and you’re already taking so much out of it, incredible! This last cinematics turned out amazing. Few are pulling up the quality you have in this early stage, imagine what’s in store after you work with some mods. Keep it up man

I genuinely think the development points are an amazing system. I always used to get super overwhelmed by Cities Skylines and everything that got unlocked. which usually led to me rushing stuff and getting even more overwhelmed. The development points system is a nice way to force someone like me to think through what to go for next. Which will hopefully lead to me taking my time more and going slow.

Great episode again 👍 its again really nice that you have a feeling for density and height in your city and dont swing the high rise brush and make some concrete hell. The street and rail building looks really smooth, easy and good the last epsiode already selled me to preorder. Cant wait to see what the further (specialized) industry zones will looke like and i´m really exited for the game.

Wonderful work! I especially like how the constant demand for low-density housing forces a more natural development of the city.

@japes7

9 ай бұрын

Yes I was a bit worried after this newest round. You seem to need vast low density areas. But it is a bit more realistic and also makes you densify the zones as time goes on or land value goes up. If it works like that I'll be very happy.

Hi! I don't make any comments on performance/FPS during the video. It it still very much a beta build us creators have access to, even with obvious bugs (such as nighttime looking completely out of whack), so personally, I will judge performance when I have the final thing in my hands ☺ If you have doubts on how it will perform on your machine, I suggest waiting for some reviews to roll-in on the final game before you decide on anything 😀

@@Infrastructurist Makes sense! Looking forward to your video in any event.

I’ve watched a lot of CS2 videos and yours are the best ones by far. I’m so hyped for this game, it’s incredible what you can do without mods. Already using your videos as inspiration for my first C2 city 🙂 Ps: your voice and accent reminds me of Giorgio Moroder which is awesome to picture him playing lol

You got me, I finally subscribed! Your urban creations are truly beautiful and accurate!

Love everything so far! I like the grid size variation but I have one polite critique, which is to not do the same with mixed housing. Since they're wall-to-wall (not sure if some aren't), you might be missing out on making some nice solid blocks of buildings, but maybe that is your preference!

Really inspiring to see genuine planning and thought before building, earned my sub great video!

Found your channel thanks to the CS 2 content. I really like the format with substantiated explanation and time lapses. But it needs to be said, the way you use districts and the way the it al looks, is just so realistic and amazing! Subbed because all of that.

It’s amazing that the city looks so realistic without any assets and mods. Can’t imagine what it looks like once they‘re are available in the workshop

I hope fps will be better when building big cities at the release of the game

I really like your creative road paths and the realism of your city. Thanks for the video!

So glad to have found your channel. I really enjoy your style of building and it’s certainly inspiring.

I really like the way you build! It’s very inspiring, the way you pay attention to have different buildings everywhere. Your city looks vibrant and alive, I really like it and I think I will keep your ideas in mind when I’ll be able to play myself 🥰 Thank you for sharing!

I just can't get over how easily accessible really good looking street layouts are becoming that were previously walled behind various mods, jankiness and more time investment. The process looks a lot more effortless which is the kind of qol improvement that is often more important than new features.

A tiny construction crew instead of cranes for low density residential housing, please 😂😂😂

This is absolutely insane... I am so much looking foward to getting started in CS2 as well, but as I never really played the first one I am now diving into it... and oh boy, building a realistic city is so complex but yet so satisfying :)

Very nice Cityplanning, nice explanations, and very nice music. Sorry, had to subscribe! 😅🥰

I love how you flashed the eagle picture when you said, "I think I'm going to demolish this entire area and place it down here." I caught that, and you gave me a good laugh.

The population mechanic appears to be even more whack in CS2 than in CS1. After all that buildout and on the verge of unlocking high-density housing (after the city already had a proper skyline, mind you) the population hadn’t even cracked 10k. To my sights by that point it had the appearance of a 50-70k city here in the western US. I hope that realistic population is one of the first mods released for CS2.

i wish there was a option for a parking spot with trees betwen the parking spots (by the hood or back of the cars) I have seen a lot of parkings like this in commercial zones with big parkings and they are great, sometimes it feels like a forest

I absolutely hate that when you zone on top of low density, the buildings disappear. In SimCity 4, houses would be kept and if there was demand, higher density would "buy" the houses and then be built. The other way around was also true. If I zoned hight density first, some tall buildings could pop up, but houses could be built as well if demand was low. That's a major flaw of this franchise since 2015.

The most beautiful CS2 build I have seen so far ❤❤

This was an awesome build to watch!

Best video of gameplay thus far in my opinion out of all the creators!

😳 Wow, you really go all out with terraforming another river for your city, don't you? Plus, you don't hesitate to add a rail station, deleting a whole slew of homes for your train tracks! You're hardcore! 👍😆

Can't wait for release!

I'm usually very against grids but damn. You've made an absolutely amazing looking city. It looks and feels so real! Awesome video :)

I cannot wait to see what you do with this game.

I think Paradox should reinstate the scaffolding animation for low rise buildings. Construction cranes for low density housing and shops look silly.

the road tool seems so satisfying to use!

Great video! love to see all that creative work, but I noticed that is very easy to earn money in the second game. While playing Cities Skylines 1 you had to decide in which infraestructure to invest, but now seems like you can just buy everything and expand the city as you like

You're amazing man. I think you and 2DollarsTwenty are my favorite. I hope one day see a crossover there 🤞

one of the only creators ive seen build a big sports venue and put an adaquate amount of parking.
