So glad youre planning on doing many different Tram rides. After dozens of episodes of watching, it always feels like the biggest reward to see all these incredible structures complementing each other from a citizens perspective. In my opinion, the tram/train/bus (etc) rides are always one of the best parts of Your projects.

For those buildings jutting out, as they have a tower that is cut through by the red path, I could see that being a research complex with the employees living in the condos above

I at first thought it could be a desalination plant to supply the city with water. But would a facility like that be mixed in with residential is what I'm not so sure about.

The beach should also have some lights for at night. A lot of tropical places like Rio have stadium lights in place to allow people to use the beaches at all hours. Stadium lights might not work in Asturis but some kind of lighting to keep the beach open would make sense for an area this popular and dense.

It would be so great if Rockstar or someone employed you to design maps for a GTA-style game. I would absolutely love to run around Asturis and wreak havoc.

coming home from a long day of work and then realising imperatur and akruas both uploaded saves my day!!

You definitely need to connect the rightmost bridge's road to the highway via an compact interchange built into the mountainside in this area that connects to the intersection the rightmost road bridge currently connects to.

Can't wait for the first person ride! One suggestion (if I may) would be to have a historical district somewhere-it would be really cool to encounter a slice of what Asturis "used to be like" nestled within all the futuristic developments.

@Akruas

Жыл бұрын

Yeah I get that suggestion a lot. I really don't want to build that honestly. I just feel like I want to focus on the futuristic stuff, it's the whole point of the series to just explore some designs like that. I have Altengrad for the old stuff. Also, technically, I would have to enable both old and futuristic assets for the series, which would be a major problem. It is a major problem in Altengrad as it combines all the styles.

Holy cow, every addition to this city makes me want to just walk it with the new "photomode" feature.

Fantastic work as always! Looking forward to the tram ride.

With these lovely waterfront buildings you've made with PO (of which, you are the master), since Asturis is so futuristic, when colouring the rooftops I think you should opt for a lighter colour than charcoal grey, since we now know more about the science of dark roofs contributing to the heat of the building in the sun, increasing the need for energy-reliant cooling systems. Not a faux-pas, just an environmentally-friendly preference.

This is what I've been thinking since the beginning. Being in a tropical climate, there should be as little dark surfaces and as much shade as possible. Also, the city probably gets a fair amount of rain and might have a monsoon season, so shelters over the pedway are very necessary.

Those spotlights on that building look so cool wow

I realy like the road, that turns away just befor the plaza. Gives the feel, that some time in the past it continued over the bridge and in to the city, befor it was eventuelly changed.

Very excited that the first person rides are nearing. Those will be fun

This was a very needed city addition, and icant wait for the tram ride :) However id still would have built an underground parking lot close by the beach. Its just a game but if it would be real it would get more visitors to the beach. :)

Does the "Asturis" city name come from the region of Asturias in Spain?

@Akruas

Жыл бұрын

No

It can be tedious to watch the insane level of detailing, but your cities are truly works of art because of it!

i hope this new coastal section moves a bit farther down the coast. Possibly towards that little inlet. At a marina maybe.

The build has come along nicely! I feel as if it would be interesting to have a lot more holograms go alongside the buildings by the beach. It looks like a popular tourist spot, so I think there would be a bunch of holograms there signifying it as a commercial district of sorts.

13:00 could call the big buildings a residential marina area? Or a semi underwater restaurant or housing

I just discovered your channel, how are we playing the same game?? Your builds are insanely cool! It's really incredible what's possible with the right mods and assets.

Absolutely marvelous!! I agree fully with this transition to the other side. My thoughts on the buildings you made into like a giant hotel, is kind of looking like a high end resort. Very well done man!!

FINALLY ASTURIS❤️❤️❤️❤️

you don't fail to surprise in every episode =) awesome!

I think it would make sense to build a big TRAIN loop. Not necessarily to make them Turn around, but to give them more options for outside-map-connections. Gameplaywise it might Not be too important, but it would make Sense and also makes the city even more interesting. To further explain my point: (I’m thinking of the space elevator as being south of the main station, wood gardens to the east, todays project to the west) Of course its unlinely for trains from the east (Wooden Gardens, Damm) to want to get back East after stopping at Asturis‘ main station. But the trains from the north, west and south all run into the main station from the Same direction and are left with no other option but to go east. Thats kinda bad, for example getting from south to north should be an option. And since you didnt build a lot north of the main station yet, it shouldnt be big of a deal to ad options for that. It should be possible to run into the station from the western Train branch and get out of it on the eastern side of the Main station, but then Turn north. And the other way around. And so on. Turning south might be difficult to build, since you already built there, but i‘m sure you‘ll find a way. Does this idea make sense to you? Or did i miss something?

@Akruas

Жыл бұрын

Main idea was that the central station is "the" central station of the entire broader region. That is why it has the high-speed railway mercilessly cutting mountains and building blocks. Asturis is the main gateway into the space elevator so the main hub is the mega main destination. So trains will stop there and it will be their final stop. No need for them to go elsewhere then. If people want to continue elsewhere, they would probably not go into Asturis at all. Or if they don't want to move radially around the city, they would use trams/light rail, as they are specifically made to be circular and connecting the outer train stations. Also gameplay-wise, there are technically 5 directions into the main station, only 1 (from southwest) terminates there. The western railway continues east but turns into the stacked bridge to serve the future industrial area, and the northern railway goes to the dams.

With all these huge buildings maybe a train station would help get all the people across the river. Realistically I don’t know if just the trams would cut it.

Don't like the animated waves, they're fine for straight places, but slightly curved and you have to curve them too which makes it really unnatural. I'm adding boats further along the coastline in some next projects.

You should have a dude sitting on top of the bridge with a case of beer. A ne'er-do-well who climbed it in the night enjoying a sun rise on top.

Damn do I love this Series!

this section looked really nice. I honestly think it wouldn't be bad to live inside some of these buildings, or with a view that sees some of this part of the city. A couple questions; 1) is next episode 32, or is it first person and then 32? 2) when the city is done, do you plan to release the save file so that people can explore it themselves? I'd love to be able to look at things from some other angles (though who knows, maybe those angles will be covered with first person views or future tours).

@Akruas 15:52 Did you cast a magic spell on the roads? Could you be so kind and tell me how you removed the stains from the roads? it looks so clean and beautiful, like the rest of Asturis. 🥰

23:51 NETWATCH?! Oh no!

Ken is going to love this place

Niceness 😊

for those red trees, maybe they are red year round. either via genetic manipulation, or just being one of those plants that is always red. city isn't in autumn, its just got colourful plants.

love it

Whenever I place down fancy downloaded buildings I get hit with low land value and it gets abandoned. Often it doesnt matter how many schools, hospitals, parks etc I place - it will never raise land value enough to make the buldings function. I see you placing these buildings too (not PO - real buldings), but you never place any public services. How do you not get hit with low land value? I searched for mods to turn it off, but I cant find any.
