Cities Skylines Beginners Guide - Starting A New City | Ep. 1
In Todays Episode, we start my cities skylines beginner guide by going over how to create a city. I want to make a city that is stunning and unique but also possible for others to recreate. Because of this, as we eventually add mods to the game, we will forever keep it lightly modded and easily approachable for everyone. This is going to be a fun series as we explore everything the game has to offer us : )

20:51 - Road going vehicles actually do drive slower when weather affects the road. When it starts to rain, the speed slowly decreases down to a certain minimum. Once it stops raining, the roads slowly dry up and as such vehicle speed increase again up to the speed limit. Walking and cycling is also based on the age of the citizens. Children are slower, teens and young adults are fastest, adults are average and senior citizens are slowest. Havent tested weather effect on walking and cyling yet. The best way to test it is to use the first person camera mod which displays speed.

I'm fairly new at C:S, and I think I have a pretty good starting game, but the transition where we need to upgrade the main arterial and fix traffic issues that stem from increased industry logistics is where I struggle with, I hope you can get to that in this series!

@CityZilla Жыл бұрын

One of the main reasons to create the arterial with no zoning on it is to help the city as it grows. The reason I put the industry area next to the highway is so it can have it's own connection probably on this next episode 😀 we will go over traffic issues though and how to avoid them. This is one of the hardest parts about this game

@mikepalmer2219 Жыл бұрын

Make sure you have the traffic manager mod. In my opinion the game is horrible without it.

@alfecar Жыл бұрын

Nice video :D Great tips! I just wanted to point out: The green area around city services like clinics and police stations are not it's coverage but the area that is been affected positively towards land value. Cims can be pick up by an ambulance even if they are on a house at the edge of the map, as long as there is a way to get there. Sick cims will also go by foot if it's on walkable distance but the green area only affects land value, which is required to get higher tiers of buildings.

Residents do not start whining the moment you raise taxes over 12%. When reaching Little Hamlet the first thing I do is set my taxes at 14%. Residents will start whining once their buildings start levelling up. The longer it takes for them to level up the longer you can rake in excess taxes. Same applies to commercial and industrial. Once residents start moaning just wait until the icon goes red and then drop it 1%. Next to complain will be commercial so do the same. Finally industry will whine. After a while and when residents level up further they will complain once more so you drop residential taxes to 12% when the icon goes red. Do the same for commercial and industrial when they whine. By the time you have dropped all 3 tax sectors back to 12% you will be past Boom Town and should have no financial worries. One side note. If you use the specialised buildings they are already at the highest level and will complain pretty quickly. However, those buildings which start at level 1 and build up will take a fair while to complain and you can happily generate extra income for the first few milestones.

I just started playing and I'm kind of surprised by the lack of tutorial, even an optional one, in the game (the tutorial in the form of those tooltips is hardly a tutorial imo). I have no idea what I'm doing, what I should aim for, how to design the city, etc., at least games like Pharaoh and Master of Olympus: Zeus have tutorial scenarios that explain what they recommend, so you can understand the mechanics and begin designing your city building off the things you're shown in the tutorial, that work with the game's mechanics but fit your style more. There seems to be none of that in this game! I am so thankful for series like yours (I've currently watched yours and one other), it's truly helped me understand things to look out for while planning and building my city. You've made the game much more approachable, understandable, and enjoyable. Thank you!

Fun video, mister City - "we're gonna go ahead" - Zilla! I'm gonna go ahead and click Like. I learned more than I thought. Fresh into the game, I made the mistake to have my city too far away from the main highways, and I did shy away from deleting / replacing buildings to implement roads. So I had to expand more and more. Also, I kept adding way too many water drains; the ocean was so dirty - but it's alright, the stream of water took care of it!

Yeah, death waves can really get you later on. You end up having to place a ton of cemetaries just to make up for it. Happy to hear you enjoyed the episode! I am a firm believer in the coulplet. It's a great way to funnel traffic through your city!

Very cool. I've been playing SimCity since 2000 and all I got are problems/issues that they don't fix. Will try Cities: Skylines.

I started this game, and quickly realized I don't know what I'm doing. I watched one beginner's playthrough, and tried emulating it, but it didn't work out. I always fall into the "Do Too Much At Once" trap. The one thing I had fun with, though, was renaming my city and the streets (though I took quite a few liberties when it came to the street names). My city's name was Brillville, and my street names were Burnett Boulevard, Korman Circle, Lawrence Lane, Conway Way, Waggoner Way, Jones Avenue, Dolenz Drive, Nesmith Street, Tork Turnpike (see what I mean?), Ludden Lane, White Way, Rayburn Road, Somers Street, Reilly Road, and McCall Avenue. (and I have a feeling there are going to be very few people here who will understand these names)

Typed "cities skylines" into the search bar and this was the 3rd video. The first two were from channels I'm already subbed to. The whole reason for my searching for a game I play and already follow like 5 channels for was to find someone new. I'm excited to see what your content is like!

Steam says I have 270ish hours in Cities... which I suspect is wrong and on the low side as I've been playing since launch.... but I've been playing for a few weeks here and there over the course of 7 years so I've never deeply absorbed the principles of what makes and ok city that will develop predictable problems vs. a city that actually has much better headroom to grow from the start. So as a not really beginner player, thank you! It's being able to see how you set things up and the finer details of your workflow that has been excellent for me to get more enjoyment out of my own playing. It really helps break me out of assumptions of how systems may or may not work to hear fluid descriptions of what is going on and what to think about. Really interested in seeing the later growth phase episodes as the mechanics of all the DLC get layered in.

I'm new to this game, but from what I can tell you would love notjustbikes, he is a canadian guy that moved to the netherlands because of car dependency in the us and canada. Lots of the stuff he talks about are perfectly in line with your opinions and mine when it comes to pedestrians in urban environments and how badly stroads affect us. Thanks for this video!
