one thing you can do to get over 2k on most maps is to drag a line starting at an overcrowding station to a station that's the same shape as most of the passengers waiting at the overcrowding station, then delete it and repeat do the same thing with other lines and you'll get high scores in no time this is called ghost lining
1. Dont use sharp angles, sharp angles mean, that the train WILL stop no matter what. Always try to go more than 90 and NEVER 180°! 2. Minimize total length. Completing any length takes time, nonetheless. 3. Have MANY changing stations, so passenger dont get carried around 17 stations long and block space in that train during that time. 4. Always have ONE EXTRA LINE AND ONE EXTRA LOCOMOTIVE!! This way you can stop chaos even before it begins! 5. Always take lines when reasonable. Sometimes you need tunnels, sometimes you need carriages, but mostly you want lines quick! Interchanges are an absolute waste, especially now when you follow my advice with the extra line and loc which is global, faster and more efficient. 6. Dont let lines cross outside of stations, trains will slow down significantly when they meet another line. Following these advices i even got a Top100 on Istanbul on my first try, since then only getting better in every station with almost every try. (Except Berlin and Paris, where I suck hard. I hate you both!)
1:31 Doing this while you are "drowning in chaos" will end you. When you remove lines - their trains have to drop off their passengers first. They don't try to drop them off at their desired destination, rather the first stop. This will bury your already overcrowded stations in more passengers.
in my experience to have only one connection between the line is not good. e.g. your passengers from far-end places will travel too long to change lines (filling up the trains). the more connections the better because trains also arrive more frequent at these stations
A useful tip is to run lines parallel to each other to maximize efficiency. That way, if you have 3 lines that do the same thing for 3-ish stations, you can good stuffs yes.
⏺️ are the majority 🔼 Semi majority ⏹️ Mostly Only one or two, (sometimes up to five depends ) Other shapes, appear only once. That's why sufficient variety is impossible with large numbers of stops in a line and lines need to create toghether an efficient variety transport.
0:31 This is false. Trains will pick up anything they can deliver before turning around. Trains running in opposite direction have to pass each other. Trains on the same line SLOW DOWN to pass each other. Pick a direction (CW/CCW) and stick with it.
on a loop line you ONLY put trains in ONE direction becouse train will pick up all passengers regardless of whether the closest station is on the other station, this allow you to maximize your trains use, having multiple direction loop lines make train less efficient if your line already have a alternating station shape setup since all other passenges expect unique and squares can be dealt with easily, and don't use too much Interchanges becouse it only going to delay your problem and not solve it altogether, only use it if you are trying to have a goal and not worry about solving the ploble like when you are doing a challenge, the other thing about using interchange is that after delaying the problem you can't even get a line, tunnle ot carriage to do a better job in ths is case no matter it's simply temporarily interchange passenger jamming the station or wave of passenger clogging your system
I am a bit unsure of what to say. I am guessing you know you can google the word. But here's a definition "The insertion of points between words or sentences" ( en.wiktionary.org/wiki/interpunction )
Personally, I think you could have added more detail. The way the video was presented was nice, but I felt as if it didn't help me out since I knew all of these basic tips.
Damn. I can't seem to get beyond 1200 customers (in London) and I already do/am-aware-of ALL of this. But looking at the leaderboards, 1200 is painfully average. I don't know what else I can be doing.
The Iconoclast, apparently some of the high scores are fake, I seem to get the same average scores as you, I did manage a 2200 once in London but I fail to replicate!
your "re-structured" lines are more awful than the original...keep your number of lines small??? what a dumb idea...logistics is certainly not your thing man...but at least, the music is totally gay 😂

The Berlin Level gives me nightmares. It's horrible xD
but 180 degrees is just a straight line...
@@VXFluff yes I think he meant 360
@@pixxa37 No he meant 180. 180 is where you stop, turn around 180 degrees and go back the other way
Malcolm Wickham. No that’s 360 degrees 180 is a straight line and 90 degrees is a right angle

What's CW CWW?
Clockwise counter clockwise
I Want them to add Mexico City. And have as an option Mexico City 1995. "Connect this city to help its traffic problems"
*adds India like a boss*
Add Dubai, UAE
1:05 Not really true.
Having more lines is more efficient, but more difficult to manage.
Thanks for this Tips! Really helped me :)
Thanks for the video. I was wondering how to delete the lines but your video show me the way!
You are welcome :)

Interpunction. Please xD
Balder that word doesn’t even make sense...interpunction
Why doesn't it if I may ask ? ^ ^ Unless you mean I didn't bother to make an actual sentence, in which case, fair enough. :p
It sounds like a made up word that has no meaning...unless the meaning is no sentence exists for this comment

Thank you! This helped me out a lot!
Bout to enter in a mini metro tournament without having played this at all
Thx this helped a lot🙂🙂🙂
Thanks :)
Why dont they have New Delhi yet. Delhi got 400km+ of world class metro.
Good! I'll use it. Thank you!
cities that were not the added
Mexico / Mexico 1995
Tokyo
Vienna
Things that should be added
1 : create your own mini system

I managed 1085 once but failed to replicate it, then my friend Jake got 2000+ in his first day and was like 'HA I BEAT YOU'
Kilo's World that’s painful 😂
Helped me out a bit
I like to hear that!
I want to see branches of single line in next update
Thanks a lot! Just discovered the pause button 🤦
Thanks a lot!
You are welcome!
Good strategy tips, not so good choice of music...
Thank you
Potatoes for the win
very good game, and thanks for the vid
Thanks!
danm , that helped me alot
Why "keep the number of lines small" ?
I see lines as segregation and thus a way to keep things managable and reduce global influece.
Good video but I already figured this out after a few hours of play :)
this vid must be tips for retards
Thanks!
Thanks
Thank
Are you trying to give tips on farming what is this music bruh
I need sub ㅠ.ㅠ
your "re-structured" lines are more awful than the original...keep your number of lines small??? what a dumb idea...logistics is certainly not your thing man...but at least, the music is totally gay 😂
Oh come on, he was just showing how it's possible to re-structure, not the best way to re-structure the lines
YOU CAN MAKE LOOPS?????
