- Cities Skylines 2 is here! I'm starting off a brand new city with a humble beginning. In this Let's Play I'll be guiding you through some of the best tips and tricks for building, but also for enjoying the game and progressing through it at a brisk pace.

Pity the moose doesn't actually interfere with cars. Imagine trying to figure out your traffic problem and zooming in on a problem intersection just to find a moose hanging out blocking the road.
Moving back to Alaska in less than a month, I miss the big bastards
Did you make it? @@GoGsApostle
I believe you can double click on a road to create a node when doing instead of having to delete the road and put it back in.
Also, when you disbale snap to geometry, guidelines and building sides you can get better grids.
@@monkey1371 I wish they gave us presets for the building tools
This is my favorite CS2 series by fr, you're just so chill. Hope this series is gonna last several months at least. When Paradox mods open so much exciting things can be done, and on release date there will be 8 theme pacs for free to download there.
Like an undo button
absolutely love how meticulous and detail oriented u are. so satisfying to watch!! keep it up!!
It is worth mentioning that you misread/misspoke about leveling up residential buildings. Their upkeep increases.
The truck carrying rock at 1:09:10 cane from the smaller highway off map and went to the major highway. Building your city here just connected the two highways, so you may see a lot of that. (to quote a popular GPS App "We found a faster route")
Congratulations on passing your driving test! My dad didn’t get his license until he was in his 30s too, that shit doesn’t matter. Congratulations! ❤
Enjoyed the start of your new city. You can get rid of street parking by adding trees or grass also, not just wider sidewalks.
love that you used left hand drive, not many do and as i live in the uk it’s a breath of fresh familiar air 😭💙
So happy to see UK-inspired build! Will be watching the whole series closely! Great start and so nice to know there are already 2 more videos for me to watch! :)
I just want to say that the editing around the sped up parts/time lapses with your voice over are done really well and I really like them. Keep it up
Yeyyy, a new series. I've watched some videos of other content creators and even though they know a game better they always rush it. I like how you take it slow, think it through and make it realistic. It's been fun to watch.
Like the idea of renaming people and following their lives.
Also, you beed to find a house for you and Rosie 😂
You can really see your organisation and OCD 😂😂 I’m the same LOVE IT!
You really can
Hey, i just want to say thank you for all the tips. I've played this game for 4-5 hours and i already got some answears to my problems with just this video. So thank you!
Let's go! Couldn't watch the streams live much but have been catching up on the vods. Can't wait to see how you plan this new city.
I really like the detailed work and would actually like you to keep this style. Thank you for the beautiful video!
Great start to the series 🎉 pacing of the video is great for newbies and seasoned Darren veterans! I look forward to watching Blackwaters development!
Thanks for the kind words!
Fantastic Stuff Darren. Watching your videos are so helpful and enjoyable. Keep up the great content.
Thank you!
I love how neat you are with everything and it's very easy to follow along relative to other cs2 youtubers.
Finally a left hand drive city. And you are not constantly talking to chat.....this is the channel I'm going to follow
I think it would be interesting if you used your expansion points to already make a 2nd city. It would be cool to see how you managed 2 cities growing at the same time and how they could interact with each other. Loved your City Skylines Play through. Will watch this one to end as well.
I subbed within 5 minutes just because of the way you talk and your approach to the game. I will binge your content while I work this week :D
ive never been this stoked to see a series start
Hi Darren, great to see you are making a proper series for this game. I tried to watch as much of the live streams as I could, but those are just too long for me to keep up. So really with the 1 hour series format 👌
Great start!
Been waiting for an episodic series, thanks.
Binged this whole series, now re-watching while I build as I've run out of episodes! Great tips, especially the one about pathways to fix zoning!! also HIIIIII + Thanks (because you said you see new comments!) : )
Hiiiiiii back! And thanks for the kind words!
i really loved these long videos, keep doing them and also a new breath of fresh air from satisfactory this series gonna be good
Love it, honestly have you on a pop up window while I'm working. Relaxing city build.
Really enjoyed this, for more realism, pipes and cables should likely always follow roads! wherever possible, and if you think about it, youll need road access to sewage outlets so on and so forth.
Good first ep, nice work!
I like the subtle nod to CityPlannerPlays (Edit: about respecting the topography) :D I've been watching a lot of his series and think I may start checking out your videos as well as I expand to get some ideas for my own gameplay. This is the first video of yours that youtube recommended to me.
Cool, thanks!
That validation feels good hey 😂 laughed and subbed as soon as you said that
Your my favorite city skylines youtuber! Got me back into city skylines and I love your gameplay ☺️
Great start and layout for a new city. Looks good 👍
Great video as always Darren, excited to see more of Blackwater!
love your gameplay! such a cool and calm game play. thanks alot.
Finally been waiting for you to make a CS2 video I'm so excited for the series!
Nice work putting temporary pathways in. I never knew that would smooth out the buildable squares like that
Great start of a new series. Let it be as long as your Anno one :)
That’s a really nice crematorium building….I hear people are “dying” to get in there!
I will see myself out.
Look forward to the series. I've been a fan of yours for a while, man. Hope you hit a 100k soon
I appreciate that!
The effort you put in to your videos is outstanding
Nice start to a brand new series. I would love to see some land allowance for service building expansion. Perhaps reemergence of the electricity pole in the future for realism's sake.
Love watching all the planning, looks great and learning alot ❤
Thanks so much! 😊
I LOVE this stuff man.... I know what imma be doing for like 10 hours lol keep posting thanks bro
Great City Build. 👍 to stop cars parking use the No Parking Signs, instead of bigger sidewalks 😊
Hi Darren, just want to say I really enjoy your videos - keep it up.
Love the format! :D
Great series can’t wait to see more!😊
I enjoyed this build. I like your authentic row house neighborhoods
GET DARREN TO 100K BOYSSSSSSS
So satisfying watching you make a very neat city I'm struggling to add water 😂 I'm a newbie and this game is hard 😂
If you'd like to be able to add just a section of a road to make it symmetrical, simply add a path at the point you'd like to install a node.
loving this
I love that you build back lanes or alleys witch here where I am Vancouver Canada is what we do here huge fan you have a follower for life now
You asked, I subscribed.
Frostpunk was my first series I watched of yours.
when you put down the pathways, you blew my mind
Congrats on passing your test 🎉
51:00 if you build low offices, you do indeed get software dev studios :) games included
I heard in CS2 you can give you buildings alley access. I think a few alleys among the row houses and businesses would look great when you set North American themed.
Really was hoping for your Play through in CS2 I was following your live sessions and was manifesting the series on CS2 ..... Really love Your Content and Game Style .... Keep Up the Good Work
i like this videos a lot! made my day a bit better
I’ve never learned so much in such a short period of time
I’d love to see the city be built to be less car-dependent. I feel like many people (including me) allow their cities to be more car-centric, I think it would be cool to see a well run city that utilizes more public transportation and actually prioritizes public transport over cars. Great video!!
I bought the first CS a couple weeks ago, a lot to learn but the main thing I struggled with was roads, they made 0 sense to me. Today I learned that you can make them drive on the sensible side of the road, this will make it much easier to design my A roads and hopefully less congestion with outgoing lorries :D
congrats on 100k!🎉🎉🎉
Looking at you plan so much is soo satisfying,....especially after the stream😅
Keralis, another youtuber noticed that most upgrades to service buildings are 6 tiles, keep that in mind when your placing them! :)
Thanks for the tips!
@@WhatDarrenPlays Ofcourse!
hyped for this series!
Row housing, the bane of existence. I prefer custom homes and large plot of land. Something so nice and relaxing having an actual yard to run around in on my bicycle, quad and still have my garden, chicken coup, pig pen and beef cow field.
I like your style.
Keep it up.
You earned a sub.
Thank you for this video. Learning a lot.
A sub extra. 👍🏼
Blackwater you say?
*Dutch breathing in planning mode*
I live in Manhattan! And yeah, spot on with your assumptions
Congratulations to 100k
Beautiful build, I'm learning much from you. Also: Nice moose 😂
Glad you enjoy it!
the parking on the road is because mid level housing does not have car ports, but they will move to a nearby parking lot.
nice vid, can't wait till ep 2
Congrats on passing your driving exam !!
I liked the video and your voice. I am looking forward to your next videos so I subbed. Would have given an upvote but the left hand drive killed it for me.... just kidding. Keep it up.
I would love to see the Chicago Map, I don't think too much people have that map, so a future series on that map would be cool.
Howdie Darren, my name is Steven Whitehouse. And I'm new to the channel. Looking forward to watching you build your city. But I will watch this first then watch episode 2 to catch up.
nice new series, can't wait!
Hey Darren, Love the stream for CS2 excited for the series.
' Blackwater '🤌🏻💯 , hope Dutch and his gang will find peace
Just found you, enjoying the content and you're entertaining. Dropped a sub as a sacrifice to the algoritm. Keep up the good work!
Hopefully this sacrifice will appease the Algo-Gods!
Man i loved this play through
I just bought the first Cities Skylines on sale, I hope to get good enough at it to do this sort of thing in the sequel someday.
This would be the most enternaining series I've seen so far, if it weren't for you brits being so weird by driving on the wrong side of the road all the time xD
That was a cool suprise, Town I use to live in is Blackwater.
that's interesting: the traffic logic in the car parks changes for left hand drive, but none of the markings change to match
Just could not get into the streams. Glad to see a proper series has been started.
Yeah its much slower, and a lot of guesswork. Thats why these videos take longer, I actually put effort / planning into them!
When starting a city for power I go for a wind turbine to start, but do not connect it to the outside so I still get the subsidy. I only build services, schools etc when I have too as I am aiming to get the geo-thermal power plant. You might think this is expensive, especially at the start, yes it is expensive but once up and running you will be exporting a load of power, my money tab was in the red and showing that I was losing 7,000/9,000, but, I was still making money at the end of the day. Don't ask me how as I have no idea. That one power plant will produce enough electricity to power your city for ages, plus it does not give off air pollution so residents down wind will not complain. After a week playing this way I I had to get another power plant when I had 50,000 pop, no problem with 102 million in the bank, my highest income per game hour was 56,000 which means I was earning over 10 million per day while playing, in fact it is more than that as I have paid out millions to get rail yards, subway yards, hospitals etc. With the two power plants I have now I am exporting 400 KW and the money just keeps rolling in.
cant wait next episode man
Hello from the South West! (Devon)
Hi Darwin player I was expecting the first video 120 minutes the next video I expect to be in nowhere then like 40 to 35 minutes just carrying on keep up with the good content hope my spellings alright😊😊
PLEASE MAKE A COLLAB CITY WITH REAL CIVIL ENGINEER
Yea fr
This should blow up
Green spaces for the little irregular shaped spots. Paths and trees.
I watch all these lets plays to learn new strategies for my own playthrough and how to make interesting layouts. And then I end up making grid city v654
Qhahaha as do i
I’m wondering if you can choose the type of units you want to place on properties. Like if I wanted to make a townhouse complex for instance is that possible?
The cemetery is one of the most beautiful asset looks a bit like a huge park use it more like a centre place
congratulations on passing your practical driving test😆not many can cope with the UK roads
