Now city skylines has tunnels

Nowadays skylines has tunnels, night time and if you arent playing on a fucking carrot, good graphics.

MOST of the negative things about skylines have been added/fixed after the video

2015 Cities Skylines = SimCity 2013 2019 Cities Skylines > SimCity 2013

Cities Skylines has changed a LOT since this video, please don't go off this when deciding which game to go with! Almost all features listed that cities skylines doesn't have, it now has, and things like graphics on Cities Skylines are very good. I prefer cities skylines greatly over sim city, although both games have their charm, and I would like to see the possibility of expanding individual buildings.

As an owner of both Cities Skylines and Sim City 2013 I won't be telling you which one is "better" but, spoiler alert: Cities Skylines is better.

You should re-do this video. Cities Skylines now has: -Tunnels -Day/night cycle -Tourism -Dynamic weather -Terraforming

lol City Skylines has fixed almost all your complaints, time for a new video?

Most of the stuff missing in Cities Skylines is in it now. Tunnels, day-night cycle, tourism, and pretty soon dynamic weather.

Should I stop playing SimCity and start CS?

1:28 was this necessary

You don't talk about public transport! SimCity: Sh*t! No routes for vehicles and they going to nearest stop. C:S: Improved system, line making, metro and much more!

Cities Skylines DOES have tunnels. Edit: This video came out before that feature was added, so this comment is basically irrelevant. It just punctuates Cities Skylines superiority.

Cities Skyline beats Simcity 2013 without a doubt

Like: City Skylines Comment: SimCity

crazy how obsolete this video became, not because its a bad video but because pretty much all of the crituqes of skylines in this video have either been completely fixed or changed because of either DLC or mods. Skylines is hands down the way to go

city skylines makes simcity look like shit.

Now we have tunnels in CS

Interesting to watch 5 years later and see how much C:S has not only closed all the gaps, but grown far beyond. I love city building games, and I'm very glad to have graduated to C:S.

For a 2013 game, I gotta say SimCity has some nice graphics

Playing skylines on low settings - tell everybody there is shitty graphic ;D

redo this cities skylines is very different now

So, it seems that as much as I have a nostalgic love for SimCity (from the olden days) EA has, well, been EA and not kept up to speed with their competition. The lack of graphics and music in CS is a compromise I'm willing to take in favor of a better developed/matured game play. The Agent system & mod community was a big factor/win for CS for me. So, this is now where I buy the game and never see light for 6 months. Hope my Boss understands. Thanks AsilksWorld!

The only thing that makes me sad about cities skylines is the fact that it doesn’t have multiplayer like simcity have. A game with city specialization AND multiplayer + all the game options and possibilities and a HUGE map like Skylines have would have my money not even thinking twice.

Just to mention, Most of the shortcomings you mention for Skylines have been addressed in updates and expantions.

Cities Skylines is so superior to SimCity it is like comparing the Beatles and Justin Bieber.

2:29 saying how good cities skylines traffic is as a car phases through another.. Jk cities skylines is an absolute amazing game.

SimCity 3000 is still one of my favorite games of all time

I have both and I recommend having cities skylines

Things that have changed with Cities Skylines since this video.... Skylines now has road tunnels. After that they added a European pack, consisting of European styled commercial, residential, and services type buildings, all for free. It also has Day and Night cycles which was a free part of their new expansion titled After Dark, which when purchased added prison complex, more leisure options, and buildings. Now with the Snowfall expansion we are getting fucking snow for free, and a tram service and some other new stuff when we pay.

Skylines content + simcity 2013 tools, electricity and water system + simcity 4 population and regional system would be the ultimate city building game without question

1:28 Masterpiece right there.

Cities: Skylines now have tunnels actually.

Omfg I bought sim city for 40 quid and no one told me that cs was thing. All that time I spent on sim city that could've been on skylines. RIP.

95% Cities Skyline better than SimCity 2013 4% 50/50 1% SimCity 2013 better that Cities Skyline

Bob likes skylines more in nearly every factor except for the utilities in which he finds the modular system to be very cool.

One more thing Skyline: $30 SimCity: $60 30Simline No wait what was I even

0:23 Long answer: Watch the video Short anwer: Cities Skylines is better

Not to mention the mods are what makes Skylines a winner in my book. The community is so great.

As an owner of both games, I can safely assume that Simcity 2013 = For people that want fun games, and want to play together Cities Skylines = For the more advanced people/modders

Knowing how Paradox works : add-on will be there soon, and more things will be added. :D

Cities skylines probably one of my most favorite games ever

1:28 I understood that you are a creative artist

Its like a Medium Wage dad gets a son that has High wage in the future... SO PEACEFUL

cities skylines is far superior but i wish it had the modules for individual buildings

the perfect city builder would be a baby between these 2 AND tropico 5

I love how almost all of the problems you mention with Skylines are now fix or added.

The only thing I dislike about Cities:Skylines is the way buildings work. In SimCity you plop down a school, and then gradually customize it and expand it as the need for education grows. Same goes for each ploppable building. You also have production chains there - an Ore Mine produces ore, you need a depot to store it, you need a smelter to turn it into steel or alloy, you need a factory to make that into televisions, etc. Cities Skylines on the other hand...well...you plop down a school and...that's it. It just sits there, making the houses more educated in the background. Where's the crowd of students coming and going to it? Where are the extra expansion rooms? Why aren't there any production chains whatsoever? Sure, I can set a district as a mining district, and it just...sort of...becomes one, and that's it. Mining-related buildings show up all by themselves and they just sit there, doing "mining". But it is completely inconsequential - it's basically a reskin of the normal industrial zone. Also it doesn't matter of there are any ore deposits nearby - if there aren't then the raw materials needed by the buildings are brought via trucks. The "cities" in SimCity feel like actual living cities...or more like tiny villages at least. There's stuff to do in them. The cities in Cities:Skylines are static.

Now in 2016 i think you can say that City Skylines is more of a simulation while Sim City is more of a game to have fun with, if you get what I mean.

Skylines recently blew Simcity out of the water with its new expansion pack, "After Dark".

Few years later: Skyline has night, tunnels, tourism mods, graphic mods... pretty much all the complaints can be fixed with mods and new DLCs

Why am I watching this, I was not even planning on getting either of these

he began with saying this wasn't a comparison, but in the end, he clearly stated that it was

SimCity used to be fantastic, but EA fucked up with simcity 5, and the sims 4 too. They made wrong things, thats why Maxis closed

Folks, this video was made in 2015 and Cities Skylines fixed almost every problem said in this video. Also graphics seem good enough, if your computer can run them. The only problem I have with Cites Skylines is that it loves eating ram more than chrome, and 8 gigs show to be just the appetizer when you build something big.

Skyline Players: *Builds a flipping 1 way road* Simcity Players: *Literally builds a supervillain base* Ok

Cities: Skylines is better because they have added tunnels, added a disaster DLC pack, and the steam workshop provides so many mods you will never get bored for a WHILE. I really recommend Cities: Skylines as I own both games and the pros in Cities far outweighs the cons.

you can get 80 tiles with mods

"I bury them in my backyard". Ha! You're funny, son.

Finally, an honest comparison this is helpful! I liked seeing it from both sides. Update: On October 28 I got Simcity, I'll have to see. Update: I love the game inspite traffic. I can't wait to afford Cities: Skylines, and ty it. Also... Corrections: 2:-- Use built-in shortcuts to adjust this: [Ctrl] + [Alt] + W adds $5K to your hourly wages If you do this, but don't press Ctrl, it adjusts how much money you have to spend by $100K. Both methods require sandbox mode, which is like regular mode, except you have the keyboard shortcuts and they give a million Simoleons. Funny moments:. 2:54 "I'm looking at you, China" LOL 4:37 I"I bury my body's in my backyard **clears throat** " LOLTaatic!

PSA: A lot of the missing features (tunnels, night time, etc) have been added to the game. The additions are pretty shallow though unless you purchase the DLC (just grab it all when its on sale during a steam sale).

And you literally recorded Skylines with texture quality on Low and level of detail on medium.

One game is lead by a company that doesn’t give a shit about its player and the other actually listens and incorporates its community’s ideas and mods.

I would honestly probably play SimCity more if you could build bigger citys

cities skyline have tunnels now

There's tunnels in Cities Skylines

Simcity has fun looking graphics

Cities Skylines is much, much better. Especially now in 2022. It has changed and was enhanced, SimCity never did.

What I want with C:S is the community. It's very vibrant and positive, not to mention their CEO's and staffs, they're very friendly and responsive.

I'm surprised there is even a comparison against skyline on which to buy. I played both, it's skylines hands down.Even before they had tunnels, day night cycles, and a shitload of transportation options. My simcity cities were tiny! They should really call it simtown or simvillage.

It's funny how this video aged. I remember there was a huge debate between Simcity and Cities Skylines. Now it's not even debatable: it was the start of a new era

"The cemetery under the health section. Which to me is pretty is useless. I bury my bodies in the back yard" - Nice

SKYLINES AFTER DARK JUST FIXED VERYTHING!

Now we just need cities skylines vs. SimCity 4. I personally think Simcity 4 would win. Simcity 4 has 1,000's more mods, larger maps, better music, more buildings, better graphics, more services, a day and night cycle, better terraforming. Cities skylines may be 3D and it may be 12 years newer but it still doesn't beat SC4.

Cities skylines: looks ugly, plays better Sim city: looks amazing, plays worse

C:S looks amazing with textures and luts I bet there aren’t any of those for simcity

fuck the Cities:Skylines and SimCity! play StalinBuild!

Let me, I own both, I have 364 hours and counting on city skylines, and on sim city I have 2

The only thing I miss from Simcity now that I've switched to C:S is the ploppable building expansion thing that Simcity has (shown with the firehouse and city hall in this video). It really added more of a customizable feel to your important buildings as well as making things more unique (plus the ability to have more models). Of course, for C:S, you could always just download more building models from the Steam Workshop, so it's nearly moot.

I personally like Simcity 5 more than cities skylines because, the specializations and the great works are fun to mess around with while cities skylines is always generally the same thing over and over again. If you’re looking for variation and to play with friends get simcity 5, but if you’re looking for a better base game and more mechanics and so on but little variation go for cities skylines. Overall I think both games have their ups and downs and i wish Simcity 5 had a expanding option but I personally prefer Simcity 5. Ps. This is an opinion

Heyy, So I can't really decide which Game to choose... I really like the upgrades of each of the houses/utilities and i also like the extension pack Cities of tomorrow and the graphics from SimCity2013. On the other Hand I reall y like the more "open world" type , of City: Skyline Which Game would you suggest is right for me? Thanks

That last jab... tears of joy.

How ironic, everything he said bad about skylines, has been implemented by the 2018, it can't be compared anymore, even the MUSIC is better in skylines now Colossal Order dev be like : 'hold my beer young man, this is gonna be a massacre'

CTS has now got everything SC has and more things such as to name roads, buildings, cars, ppl, rename stuff that can be plopped down, etc. Also a day and night cycle, better graphics than ever, and a weather cycle. The streetlights also turn on at night. CTS is so detailed and it's gameplay tops all of the city building games. U can also now name roads

Owned Sim City. Got Cities:Skylines and never thought about Sim City again.

I enjoyed both games but for different reasons. I would say if you have a vision of a very specific city in mind and you enjoy tons of creative control than Cities Skylines is definitely for you. However I thoroughly enjoy the competitive aspect of Sim City, I like that the game presents me with constraints and challenges that maintain my interest over time where I find the late game in Cities Skylines mainly becomes a bit boring once you reach a certain population. I'm not saying they are equal, I would definitively say Cities is a more well rounded and well produced game, but I don't hate Sim City like a lot of other people do, I just enjoy it for different reasons. I wish they would combine some of the aspects of Sim City into Cities Skylines.

This video is a bit old , so I'll point out the biggest differences today - tunnels, huge workshop community, and leisure and tourism commercial specializations. We also now have way better graphics given the steam workshop, and night time is also a thing.

Cities: Skylines is the most addictive game I've played! Only just got it 5 days ago and already put 45 hours worth of gameplay into it! Got a main city, airport, two smaller cities outside and some suburban towns all connected by rail!

Skylines is way better than SimCity. EA has utterly destroyed everything that made Simcity good.

City Skylines now has night time and tunnels

1:28 that’s just such a great way to show how to build roads you know.

Look at Cities: Skylines, it is exactly 3 years old since it was released, but look, DLC development and the modding community is very alive, compared to SimCity franchise that might be dead by now, I'll want to see an comparison between C:S and SC4 (its modding community is still active though, 14 years since the game was released in 2004).

Updates for Citites: Skylines for everyone wondering, 1:13 They have updated it and tunnels are now available. 5:50 There is a new mod for 81 tiles instead of 25. 7:12 - 7:18 There is a little bit of tourism by placing landmarks and monuments, so that isn't correct. 8:17 They have updated it and night time is now available. If you don't know what to choose, I chose Cities: Skylines and I am having a lot of fun with it, I never actually played Simcity so I can't say if it's godd, but if I look at these videos, I would go for Cities: Skylines.

Sim City loses frankly because Cities: Skylines has mods and a huge modding community. So no amount of expansions can bring Sim City ahead, the only perk it has is multiplayer but with mods? Who knows that can already be a thing. I've seen lengthy LPs of Sim City and it doesnt' have the same depth or staying power. Even Lazy Game Reviews, a guy who owns every copy variant of every Sim City says the newest one is just disappointing, Skylines comes out later at half the cost and no online DRM and crushes Sim City. I wish Sim City was better, the multiplayer would have been a great option but they dropped the ball and just about any Sim City before it is superior never the less Cities.

The only thing I noticed that SimCity has compared to Cities: Skylines is modular buildings, I would actually love to see that in skylines vanilla with a dlc at some point

I think that the simulation in SC is far better than in CS. In city skilines, the agents just go to their places at random times. In SC the agents go to work in the morning, they return from work in the evening, they might choose to go out instead of going home. Crimes actually happen, you can see when someone is robbing a store. Although SC is overall a failed game and the simulation system is far from perfect, but it is so much more intresting. I just loved to see real rush hours. In CS its just a constant stream of cars, thats why they have the despawning system enabled by default.

First, I would like to applaud your presenting skills. I enjoyed how you presented the information in this video without having a biased view. It was clear, and to the point. Second, I think I am now going to buy Cities Skylines. I love building games, and I like the highways, and bridges in Cities Skylines.

That ending bit. Just wow.

SimCity is very different now... Yes, better graphics but you know, lot’s of good features are removed like building curve roads, roundabouts, etc... And, Cities Skylines has better graphics than SimCity, Cities Skylines has mods that you can download... And the city expansion in SimCity is already very limited... Please do another video about this... The updated one!!!

It would be interesting if you made an updated version of this vid to see what changes happened to both games over the years.
