So happy you’re back in Oceania!! A lot of creators who have returned to CS1 have been doing wayyy better than expected - so much so that they don’t even go back to CS2 at all. I guess we’ll just have to see what happens with this video when it goes public, but I’m happy you’re enjoying CS1 for the first time in 5 months!!

Cs2 as for content its not yet close to cs1, specially if you are a content creator. I do enjoy cs1 videos, the scale, everything looks much better. Cs2 still has a couple of years and fixes, and may eventually get there. But currently, for watched content i dont even bother watching cs2. While cs1, sign me up!

I love watching CS1, since there's so much detailing potential with mods and such. CS2 has a long way to go before it has the same toolkit as CS1. Honestly I am just glad you're switching between the 2 for now! 😄

Good to hear that you are still enjoying CS1. In my opinion, what makes your content unique is your nature and large scale detailing and this video perfectly sums up these skills. It was fantastic to see Oceania again and all those beautiful Pdelmo gum trees.

Thanks so much mate

Oceania and Marble Mountain (Rest in peace) capture something so special with their atmosphere. Your worldbuilding is amazing and I get this immense need to travel and venture out into nature as soon as I see your quaint suburbs, hidden beaches and trails up the mountainsides. I understand you can't keep working on these worlds if you don't see the interest, but I hope all these comments will make you realize just how much we love to see you create worlds in CS:1

I am super excited to see more CS1 content! It's so much more unique then CS2 at the moment. CS2 just doesn't have the same homey feeling like CS1. In CS1 it feels like I could visit the places you create, whereas CS2 it just looks and feels like a video game. Please make CS1 content especially while CS2 is catching up.

“Bright and colourful” - that’s exactly why I’ve always clicked on your videos. I feel like they give me the Vitamin D I miss at the height of winter. On a separate note, I’d love for you to do road trip style video for this rail line like you did years ago for Marble Mountain (your second road trip video is actually what brought me to your channel and made me a Patreon). I remember you saying those took too much time to make, but man, the feels…!

In hilly terrain, whatever makes sense. In the area north of Sydney that 2dollars20 was showing on Google Earth, the train line goes over the Pacific Motorway. Of course the Motorway was built well after the railway, just as would be the case in Oceania.

As much as I like CS2, at this stage I like CS1 more in terms of of the content being put out for it there’s just so much more to do and see and detail. I do think that in a years time CS2 will finally be the heavyweight we’ve been waiting for. It’s great to see your still showing these cities some love ❤️

Glad to see Oceania back! Probably the series that inspired me the most to get to cities skylines content creation!

I am very pleased that things are continuing here. It's a pleasure to watch you build.

As an Australian, I love Oceania content. My wife and I made it a routine part of our night when we first started watching it months and months ago, and we dropped everything to watch this as soon as it came out. Love this series and hope to see more!!

I really like the detailing aspect of CS1. CS2 is much more just rough shapes at this stage. So this video is definitely a breath of fresh air

To be honest I like CS1 content so much more than CS2! I feel like CS2 gets tiring so quickly since it all looks the same and has a lot of unsolved frustrating problems. CS1 has a lot more variety and is just more fun to play and to watch

I totally agree

Super glad you're back here on CS1. CS1 detail content like you produce is just leagues above CS2. With regards to the missing asset issue in case you haven't discovered yet: It's a Steam bug introduced with their latest "QoL" update they did. It's grown fond of randomly unsubscribing folks from assets. Skyve is a great tool to immediately alert you if you are suddenly missing assets from your playlists with a handy little red warning label and showing you which ones you're missing (just make sure Skyve isn't set to auto-save playsets). I've also gotten in the habit of reading EVERY Loading Screen Mod report when I load a save because that will also tell you if you're missing assets used in a city and which ones they are. It's all a super annoying process but worth it to save projects.

I’d love to see you do a Simcity 4 series, the music in your videos always makes me think of it. Surprisingly you could also play heavily modded SC4 bc the modding community is still pretty active on Simtropolis, custom assets, network mods, and even game changing mods. It’d be great to see what you could do with such an old (but great) game.

Being from Sydney Im so happy to see Oceania again!

Never thought I'd see another Oceania video since CS2 came out. Nevertheless, it is certainly welcome! CS1 really does have an undeniable charm, and it's still such a good game.

More CS1 Content 👏 I miss the detailing so much!!

Giving me such nostalgic vibes with the use of music from SimCity4 The Sims! Also, love that you're continuing with Oceania!

As city building goes, Oceania is one of the most believable city environments I've seen. The city itself and the rural landscape around it is so genuine and I love it. Please continue on this city!

so good to see you back in cs1!

It is so much easier to watch the CS1 content when you can tell in your voice and in the play throughs that you are having more fun. Half of the enjoyment is the shared sense of discovery and creative thinking while building!

Missed your detailing mate, lovely to see you back in CS1

The Gods have finally smiled on us and graced us with the return of Oceania!!!!!!!!!!!

Still in love with the train station in the building

Im sure a massive part of the community hasn’t even touched CS2, and personally, I don’t think I will maybe even for a year or so. So im sure there is still a big market for CS1 content, especially for established players like you that have a name and have some good series running.

Late to the party but man its feels so good that you're back in cs1!! So nice to see you able to detail a place up again like in classic $2,20-style!

It's nice to see you back in Oceania, it's such a lovely series, a perfect mix of relaxing videos, and charming, beautiful builds. I'll be honest, I haven't watched much of your CS2 videos, they just don't have the same vibe as CS1, so I'm definitely hoping you continue with Oceania. This video particularly was so well-crafted (both the build and the editing), it went by so quickly! On a side note, in a few months, I'm visiting Australia for the first time to see family, and this video's got me very much looking forward to it!

Thanks man! You’re right about the csl1 vibe. There’s something still really special about it that’s becoming more apparent after csl2. I hope you have an excellent time in Australia! If you get a chance you should check out some of our national parks 😊

Cool to see Oceania back! I love your content regardless, especially knowing how much work it takes for you to get the Oceania save working and handle the hundreds and hundreds of mods and assets you have to juggle with it - whatever you enjoy doing!

It is so good to be back to Oceania! Please keep going with the CS1 content!

I am honestly CS agnostic! As long as you’re motivated and interested in what you’re building, that’s what makes your videos fun to watch! ❤

I love your modded content for cs1, the history and detail you put into your builds and the way you talk about it is not only great content but great storytelling, this series specifically got me into CS1 again after a long break, and now my 32 gigs of ram beg for their life loading up my current city. I personally prefer it over CS2 because all the CS2 cities I see look the same kinda, but these cities with all your mods and detailing and a storytelling truly feel like “twodollarstwenty” content

@twodollarstwenty

3 ай бұрын

Thanks dude! It’s definitely the sort of content I want to make. Hopefully csl2 gets its act together

In terms of neighbourhoods for those hill towns, I might suggest something similar to Hahndorf in the Adelaide Hills. Today it is a tourist town because of all the old German buildings, in the day it was where all the German immigrants settled down and is still the oldest German settlement in Australia

When it comes to old train lines, make them super slow increase and decrease in elevation, as old trains with cargo have trouble moving in steep areas. (That means, bridges, cuts trough terrain and following the mountain curves/edges are realistic settings.)

Going north out of Perth there's a whole heap of old crayfisherman shacks along the beach at Wedge Island and Grey that people (mostly) use as holiday homes nowadays, could be something to put along the beach

Finally an oceania episode.. Miss this series soo much💜

Love it that you've returned to Oceania. I love the island and your build, and so very happy that you have not yet abandoned it.

Glad to see Oceania back in the spotlight, awesome video! At 19:12, I reckon that the line might as end Rockmantle since it felt more of a shuttle to connect a bunch of towns to the city. It reminds me of the Souther Highlands Line (a rural line connecting to Moss Vale) where most services terminate at Campbelltown and passengers changes for a suburban train to the city. However if services wants to connect to the city then, usually they would stop at important stops only. For example the new line would just go express to Matilda Point from Rockmantle with no intermediate stops. Those are some reccomendations however I really love how this line turns out so far!

It looks soo much better than CS2. Colossal have very little cue about good looking graphics and color management. Ambient occlusion alone makes a HUGE different - those forests looks amazing. And of course proper amount of saturation, no washed out colors (which Colossal seems to love for some weird reason).

This is the first $2.20 video I’ve watched since Marble Mountain and it feels so nostalgic being back! I’m certainly not staying away for as long again!

It's spectacular to see a return to CS1! Here's a small suggestion for Dundee/Matilda Point, perhaps you could include a music festival similar to WOMADelaide in one of the city parks or on a purpose built festival ground! It could be kinda like the World expo in Sunset City too, where live events actually take place.

Ah yeah! Finally scratching my Oceania itch. This series is still one of the best things on KZread. I'm not ready to see it end yet. We need some serious Newcastle vibes at the other end of that highway. Also you could perhaps incorporate an abandoned branch line off of that railway. There's loads of inspiration for that kind of thing not far from Sydney.

Good to hear you are enjoying CS1, personally CS2 has never been a thing I've liked. Hopefully in the future it regains it's hype. But for now, im more than happy with the CS1 content!

Nothing better then enjoying my dinner and then seeing TwoDollarsTwenty start talking about the random suburban train line I take to work.

Love the return to Oceania mate! Missed this series a lot . I recon that along the small beach you could make it more rocky like in flinders Melbourne and put a few small cabins in.

Can't express how much I missed Oceania! Love to see it back, hopefully there's more to come❤

The train line and highway reminds me of the west coast main line through northern England and southern Scotland as it crosses over the parallel M6 and A74

CS1 content goes down like fine wine. Smooth with a nice feeling.

Really nice to see some Oceania again. About the new town: it could be an old mining town, that is now no longer used and therefor a bit struggling. Maybe there is now a diner or motel which the locals use to try making a living from the traffic of the “new” highway

coming back and looking at this, wow such a big visual change, a lot "brighter" and feels like you can create so much more creatively with little cool places and areas.

Honestly I've stopped watching CS2 content at this point, and I don't think I'm alone in this. I suspect that everyone watching this video is emotionally invested in your CS1 series and we'd love to see more content moving forwards.

It’s a good little train ride really well done. The best mini scenic train ride I’ve seen made is a mini coastal mountain train journey in a non DLC non mod series. I’d love to see you replicate that video with your skills and mods it would be the best. Though if the original creator had mods I’m sure even he could make it something magical

i think what the little access road at 16:00 could use, is just a fence or a barrier of some kind, so people dont just go onto the railway

Oh man, it’s so good to see you back in CS:1 🤩 I mean CS:2 is good in all off that stuff and I play it as well from time to time, but when it comes to really detailing a street, a city, a whole landscape CS:1 is in the current state still my favourite choice. You’ve got so many opportunities within this game and in this video my friend you showed the whole world that you still can handle it perfectly and make a city come to life ❤ Thank you for another exciting video 🥳

Bro at the one minute into the video: that's the train I used to catch all my child hood in Wellington (Johnsonville Line). Such a pretty line that navigates the mountains and a nature reserve.

Fantastic to have this series back. I'd love to see a small town by that beach. Looks like an awesome surf beach where there's be a few places to rent, a good restaurant or two and a couple of surf shops. The kind of place where people and nature thrive because it isn't over-exploited

Build whatever you want mate, the more you enjoy yourself the more we enjoy your content. CS1/CS2 it’s all good, just make sure you’re happy playing the game.

I missed your CS1 series so much. Thank you for coming back !

I really like that youve returned to this series,l i didnt really follow your CS2 videos but Oceania is an all time iconic series for me its now eclipsing all other CS content creators. Keep doing what your doing.

It's amazing how well you've captured the texture of light and the bush.

Its great to see CS1 and Oceania back, I think CS2 has the potential to get there but right now it just doesn't have the same feel as modded CS1. So I hope to keep seeing these videos

So happy your back in Oceania!! Also it would be great if you’d create a more tropical area between the area your currently working on and the desert, with something like great barrier reef Edit: I’m not sure if it would work with the biomes you currently have in Oceania but still wanted to mention it

i'm really, really happy to see oceania back

I was like, "Wow this looks just like the Johnsonville train line I catch". Turns out it's inspired by it haha. Great job here

Incredible! So happy you’re back! Will always be a fan and support your channel! But love CS1

i watch your vids for the insane detail, i was kinda sad that that wasnt rlly possible in csl2, so im happy to be watching csl1 content again.

6:21 Sim city mobile music hits hard on me because it was my first ever city builder I played F

For the town, you could build like an abandoned luxurious resort that used to sit.

SO happy we're back to Oceania and CS1! I missed this map though, all the detail work, so amazing.

I looked at this channel earlier today and watch some of those cs2 videos, and I just ce back to see a NEW cs1 video. (I was playing a board game when this was uploaded though)

Glad to be back in Oceania and CS1. I'd love to see more Sunset City as well. Keep 'em coming!

the throw back to SC2 music always strikes a cord!

For months old Oceania episodes have been showing in my front page. I think it might be a new episode then I check the timestamp and it's 1 year ago. So happy to check out YT today and see one from 7 hours ago.

I am stoked you are back, I actually felt happy watching you go to town on this map again and I could hear it in your voice as well. So yeah keep it up with CS1 content and looking at the mess that was this weeks... word of the week modding is still a long way off with CS2 so I am sure most of us will be glad to see what you can do with CS1 in the meantime.

omg finally, thank you so much for this!!

So keen for more Oceania! Love this series so much. As for what to do with that valley, where I'm from in NZ there's loads of roads winding around hills and headlands with sheep and horse paddocks. It's very quaint and comfy so could be an idea.

In regards to building bridges for existing train lines over new highways they certainly do Close the train line and build a new bridge over the new highway. They built one at Harcourt in Victoria (Bendigo - Melbourne Line) for the new Calder Hwy as well as at Leawarra for the Peninsula Link Hwy on the Stony Point Line.

I love Oceania! I was so excited to it fully fleshed out. So yes, please do more.

Love to see Oceania back!

I have no clue if this will work/fit in the city but maybe a bit of a logging town could work! Tucked nicely in the hills with the forests all round!

This is awesome hope more oceania comes in the future because it seems you enjot building it and a good chunk of us still love your oceania vids!!!

In glad to see you back at this. Best videos ever

I'd love to see you build more of Oceania, this series has so much more potential. I hope u continue it, but do what you enjoy most!

Thanks for coming back! I kind of like the colourful look of CS1. You could build a small fishing city next to the small beach

Really enjoying the series. I had a idea of what you could do with the high town. Where the little indent of the highway is you could put a old abandoned Opal mine with a spur of the train line track going towards it. Then you could name the town near it Opal Grove

This single video has made me fire up CS again, after I dropped off at the launch of CS2. And I'm really getting into it again. Despite the techical limitations of CS, this heavily modded game still rocks! Thanks 2D20!

There’s a bridge I remember in a town called uralla in NSW which has a random bridge that spans over a road it’s very interesting and such a lovely Australian town especially for its classic Main Street style

Love the use of the SimCity 2013 soundtrack:)

If you have any available inland spaces you should make a lake and lakeside village a la Lake Eildon and Bonnie Doon. Bonnie Doon was originally where the lake is now before the lake existed but the whole town was moved to higher ground on ox-drawn platforms when a dam was built. There's also a dismantled rail line which is now a walking and cycling track that passes through the village over one of the lake's arms and through some little cuttings.

So glad you're back, hope you're able to solve all your issues

I really enjoy watching your content, you have a soothing voice and a nice eye for detail. Whether that's CS1 or CS2 doesn't matter. I also particularly enjoy this series because it feel like home. I grew up in and around Wellington, so it's nice to see elements of that here. Especially the J'ville line in this episode. If you want more inspiration for that sort of hilly, curvy train line, I recommend checking out the train line from Christchurch to the west coast of the south Island of New Zealand.

Your creativity is amazing. Intriguing.

I love your videos no matter if it is CS1 or CS2! They always give me that Pixar Documentary vibe lmao which I love. And I especially love seeing you detailing in CS1 which is yet not possible in CS2 to that amount

My life best memories are from marbal mountain , which run around 2 year and when its realse i watch in 1080 p quality because its too close to my life , its best city and country side i ever seen , and i am waiting for airport build from starting but it never happened and its forest is so beautiful i just wants that if that is real place its was best place in the world , i really like that series and i know you have many plans but game doesn't support at last , RIP marbal mountain 😢
