Whoa! What an episode! Egg: This won't be an expansion episode... Me: Sighs with a bit of relief 'cause I'm a couple of builds behind with the follow-along. Egg: Just a bit of infrastructure. Me: Jaw drops as I watch Egg proceed with what I'd call the most daunting build yet. Also Me: In continuous awe of your design skills. You literally squeezed in a massive intercity train network into non-existent space and made it look sooooo good. Watching you build and design is so much fun ❤😃❤
I love this city! Even though I have watched every episode, I still can't believe this is a vanilla + DLC city! So much can be done with the base game plus the DLCs, and your detailing is, as always, incredible. I could watch you detail in time lapse for hours, and add in that walking p0rn in the transport hubs...YES PLEASE! Excellent addition to the city, Egg, just loved it. Will watch again, as usual. 😍❤❤
Ah I was playing around with this today based on real life trains in my city. I enjoyed what I managed to setup, but after watching this video I will have to start over. :)
I can definitely say I also enjoy watching the pedestrians in the video walking to and from the stations. It's extremely satisfying seeing the work you've put in pay off with barely any people driving. Can't imagine the absurd amount of traffic otherwise
If Carlsberg were to make intercity train transport convergence videos for Cities Skylines then this would be it. Absolutely amazing episode that you just knocked right out of the park. I have been following your vanilla builds since Bergusia and i struggle to remember a better episode created by yourself. Masterful creation!
There are some nice ideas... 😁😁😁 I would put the stations on a side track to prevent jams. 21:02 Change the middle section into a street with grass. In this case they have the same width of the streets and the overpasses wouldn't look that ugly...
32:19 might be a good opportunity for another train channel, creating a steep embankment against that road and "hiding" the train from the neighborhood. (It doesn't work that way in the game, but IRL this would mitigate noise pollution too)
I'm a bit behind on this series but you know I just had to watch this one! I enjoyed it and although I have to admit I was expecting a huge central station hub, the idea of different stations, hubs and styles is brilliant! Nice work as always Egg!!
No judgement here...wanna know why?... Yesterday I fired up the game to see Cims move around the city, that's it. Look at the cars go on the highway too! 😂😂 It's kinda relaxing (unless u got traffic issues 🤯 lol)
Super bendy bus is an awesome addition to the game! I was having the same issues like 400+ passangers waiting in each stop and i solved it with super bendy buses running on dedicated bus lines. Now line works perfectly well without any bottlenecking with 1k+ passengers
"stare at this for hours and hours"...yep, I can, and do Your videos fill me me with a mixture of awe, hope, dismay(at my current ability level) and joy! thanks, and keep them coming, please! Hopefully I can come up with something near this in time, having discovered skylines two weeks ago Not had this much fun (and frustration!) since the original Settlers came out!! haha!
Can’t wait to see the railways humming with internals trains! It would be interesting if you went with a solely elevated train network but that might not be terribly feasible everywhere
Wonderfull build ! So far I'm happy with the aesthetic in all my cities, i enjoy detailing and creating different types of atmospheres for different neighbourhoods. What I still struggle with is building efficient transport infrastructure, and planning my city ahead to give it potential for new transport networks... I really have to start thinking more about where my rails are gonna sit when I start a city (or just tear through entire neighbourhoods to give way for the rail like a victorian rail baron... But I can't build up the courage to do that when I love all the areas I built and decorated so much ! )
holy shit this episode! from the comedy of the 1x1 vanilla housing , to all the civilian walking porn ... and there was SO much walking great video, as always
Don’t forget about viewing the map in the traffic routes view as well, like when you were waiting for a train to come to your station, you can click on the train station in the traffic routes view and see arrows indicating all people and vehicles heading to that station and the people and vehicles themselves are highlighted.
Thanks alot buddy! Also if you guys are gonna build this then save before u build because sometimes it can go wrong and having that start checkpoint set really helps!
First 48 minutes of the video: *In the name of the Tropical Pelican (bless her holy feathers), I ask:* *Where are the content community train stations?* Great build though, huge relief when you introduced a CC station in the downtown 👌 And honestly my take home message is that I _love_ Noob Yolk's forest brush...
Another great episode, love this city! Really cute train station designs, lots of inspiration thank you. And I agree, those 1x1 residential assets are pure 🤢😂
For bus line 6 (the downtown line) would making a local and express line work? It seemed there were few passengers waiting at the beginning and end of the line and the main bunching occurred on the middle 4 or so stops. If there was an express running (the current line) supported by a local line (just those 4 or so stops) would that help? I haven't experimented with this in my own city, but think about it from time to time.
#1: Love it. However: #2: that farm fence running along the rail on it's downside slope. useless expense to the city, kinda detracting a little from the multi-level transport vibes. It certainly isn't going to stop a runaway train ;-)
As every, very very attractive and informative. As a complete Noob myself I am also interested in knowing more about the mechanics of the game. For example how are you avoiding the 'Not enough workers' and 'Not enough customers' messages from your industrial and commercial. You seem to have a high demand for residential.
Thank you for the tip about separating your inner city train line from your internal train lines. Should you keep your internal passenger rail and freight rails on separate networks as well?
Oh, trains, trains, train stations, content creator train stations. You and us just can't get enough of them. :) Would it be feasible to use this infrastructure for a local train line as well? Or would that be too congested on the train line, and also redundant due to the metro and monorail running parallel?
You could run the same set up with an internal line, obviously just don't connect it into a national line. Although in most of my cities I've usually relied on other methods for internal methods. I find trains to be a lil clunky 😌
