What an interesting concept that really never occurred to me. Although the idea of taking a map where you have wonderful rolling hills and countryside farmland into a game that's all about building a megalopolis is a bit sad. Like virtual life imitating reality with the loss of farmland to urban development. Maybe im not understanding it right.

I have since redone them. I thought having them all run back to the bus depot was a mess. So the new idea was to create the out of map loops which of course go to the bus depot. Then to create local city loops that involve the bus depot so someone in one end of the city can get to the other end by riding the bus to the depot and then jumping on another line. But then for the other 'towns' I created local loops that only loop the respective town or in one case two towns. And then I made a connector loop that had a few common stops at each town but ultimatly came back to the bus depot also. so someone in one town could ride the bus to the city to do shoping or work and then ride a bus back to home by jumping a few lines. Seems to work ok from the numbers of riders but probabatly still not optimal.

@FarmerKlein I got totally carried away placing stops and the route got very crazy very quickly trying to get to them all. I will be much more sensible this next time around.

Probably how NOT to do it. :)

I don't recall suggesting anyone preorder.

@@FKs_Funhouse it's just a general rule to live by. I honestly cannot name a single game that started with pre-order status, that turned out to be successful

The original, yes can be difficult to keep up with all the various demands of a city. So far I have found Cities: Skylines II to be a bit easier to manage. I think one of the key differences is how things unlock. Very basic services unlock as you progress thru milestones while other things progress as you unlock them via the development tree. In the end its a balance of the economy but again I found myself always running out of money in the orginal where as CSII gives you a steady flow of money at each milestone that it becomes easier to not totally run out of cash.

Thanks.

lets hope they get the performance figured out so console players can build their cities. The update that came to use yesterday did a good bit to help out with performance.

Plan for Monday and Tuesday night streams. Not sure if I can get one in tomorrow or not.

I can tell you system performance is a hot topic with those who have early access. We all feel there is alot more optimization that needs to go on. With that said take a look at the new minimum and recommended specs. I am running basicly the recommended specs myself and I can tell you 1440p at 60fps is not something I wil be seeing with much regularity. Now the good thing is this kind of game does not need that level of FPS performance but at the same time if your worried about your system being able to handle it the it might be worth waiting a bit longer for more optimization to occur.

@@FKs_Funhouse Yeah I'll be waiting for a bit until they get things optimized.

Cities skylines 1 is a great game, played it for a while now. I was really looking forward to the next one but they've delayed it on console till spring 24'
