My third #citiesskylines2 gameplay video, and we're supercharging the growth of our Realistic North American city Riverview, through massive suburban expansions, starting a new city across the river, implementing an additional commuter/passenger train station, and setting up the first train line, the development of a college, expansions and/or revamps of our healthcare services, police services and school system, the development of a mail sorting facility and last but certainly not least: a big zoning overhaul of Downtown and Riverview's inner-city districts, up-zoning a lot of central areas to higher densities: medium and high density residential and offices. So yeah - lots of things - lots of new skyscrapers - Enjoy!
I want to thank @paradoxinteractive and Colossal Order for providing early access to the game and giving me this opportunity to share Cities Skylines 2 content with all of you, and want to stress that this is not a paid promotion of the game.

I have a bad taste in my mouth about CS1 after losing my 2400 hour city because the final DLC update broke one of the mods I was dependent on. You really needed a crapload of mods to do a realistic city in CS1.

looking at it frame by frame and counting the number of frames where nothing changes it looks pretty dire, not a scientific method tho, just a very rough indication when zoomed out and panning it looks like there is a frame every 4 - 6 frames of the video (10 - 15FPS) when zoomed in its roughly a frame every 1 - 3 frames of the video (30-60FPS) Overall the gameplay seems to be in the 20-40FPS region tho

Great city and video! I hope Paradox either reduce the (insane) amount of demand for single family detached homes, or correct the description of row houses from medium to low density.

@Kasiarzynka 8 месяцев назад

I think I've heard somewhere that you can "trigger" demand for different housing densities based on how you build your city, what services you offer etc. I hope that's the case - I'm a fan for higher density, too, but if it's a gameplay mechanic, to actually think about how to make the city more friendly for people who'd move into your preferred density, I wouldn't mind it at all.

@PTB_BE 8 месяцев назад

"We're gonna expand and stretch our services thin until we become financially insolvent" Hot damn son... again: the reason why we all like your content. Also, the way Caldwell is "designed" here gives me the impression it was a town on its' own until it get "connected" to Riverview thanks to zoning. So perhaps Caldwell could get its' own city centre to highlight this even more? (hint hint hint :p )

@Infrastructurist 8 месяцев назад

Trains are cool and we love trains indeed! You could think of it as a Copenhagen style light rail S-Train line. Not too far from the central station to Vesterport section, also quite short though bypassed by regional trains who take a bypass track. Maybe you can bring a more realistic element to the rail network by having a rail line for regional trains on the main lines and then rail lines that stop at every station? Personally love the look of rail corridors in cities and the creative ways city planers integrate them in different ways!

This city definitely needs to continue. Enjoyed watching every second of it. ❤ Would love to see how you upgrade/rework the areas with more details once there are new custom assets available for CS2. However, what I am quite dissapointed with is the lack of variety of buildings, although it's much better than in CS1. I mean, I'm not fan of mixing different zones within one block - but seems it's the only way how to get some variety here in this game. Just can't accept the fact that say for example 3x3 zone tiles of the same density level allows to build only one type of building, just in different colour. Is it only me that was hoping for more? 😅
