      Still can't use ferries, though. They will still be overselected for their carrying capacity and most cims will despawn waiting for a turn at a ferry, but you still need bridges to carry garbage, police, fire, goods, etc, because THOSE aren't done by ferry, so you really have no use for them. Same for blimps. Cims wait and pile up and then despawn, because rather than use a metro or train etc, they will use the "quicker" blimp and despawn while waiting to select the blimp again. If cims were a LOT less likely to use blimps or ferries, you could use them for longdistance point to point, but as it is, you can't have any other mass transit at or even near the destination, otherwise you have too many to handle and therefore either spam them so you can practically walk on them, or not use them at all.

    Seeing all of the road variants (and absence of some combinations!) makes me hope that CS2 will have a roadbuilder mechanic, where you just choose the number and kind of lanes and maybe aesthetic stuff like street furniture, sidewalk presence and size, landscaping & trees, to make your own custom roads. Would help avoid having fifty different variants of the same basic road components.

    I can also see parking lots being useful as buffers.

And if they don’t generate noise they could help separate commercial from residential.

      @@johndoh6584 That was what put me off bothering. Carparks should be a way to force cims in cars to take a particular route (to the carpark) and then walk (or take another transit option, a la park 'n ride), but that requires work on cim decision trees. Same for ferries or blimps, and most busses (of any OG vanilla/DLC type), where cims "decide" that it is quicker to wait in a queue 600 deep and then despawn rather than walk four blocks in less time. To make cims less likely to select an option based on queue length would solve it, because cims would be less likely to select the smaller capacity forms, and rather than see 600 queues for a bus that carries 30, you might see queues for 60 cims waiting and less usage of that bus. Adding more busses to that line could increase usage, but so could adding a different larger capacity transport option. But instead we get decision trees that ignore walking or pocket cars for the "quickest" transport and then despawning or just taking longer than ignoring that transport option altogether and queues that are a thousand deep waiting for a train.

    What they maybe should have done with the Africa pack is set it up as a district of "they CAN spawn here" (same for campus?), so if there is a 1x1 space but nothing from the pack to fit in, then it picks base asset, if it is a 3x4 and has both asset AND basegame, then it picks nearly randomly (maybe per pack it decides the chance of that pack specifically spawning, so it might be 50:50 or 5:95 instead of relying on the relative size of the pack). Downside to that is that you can't mix a content creator "can spawn here" from other content creator "can spawn here". E.g. you can't mix campus student AND africa together if this way is done, just like you can't mix european suburbia and "map default", you have to pick for a district. Adding to the list of spawnables does allow mixing, so it is kinda "you chose which downside you have".

      No, that would not help. What is needed is a change to cim decision trees. Carparks should be used to funnel cims to a specific location, from whence they will walk (or take the public transport, see park and ride), and you can therefore optimise travel to/from specific areas rather than having to "optimise everywhere" as would be required for your ideas. As long as cims just see carparks as parks, it will remain unchanged. Visual only. Cim changes are required to make it not visual only.

Being able to tell them "don't park here, there's no room here" would still be a solid middle ground IMO, but hopefully CS2 fills in some more of the gaps (parking, food access, etc.) that real urban planners have to deal with, and works on cim behavior to match it.

      HOPEFULLY CS2 is build knowing and learning from CS1, so it will be more heavily threaded/forked (game engine changes are required for that), but also mixed use and cim decision to "park" or "use public transport" or "walk" is an engine change and hopefully also learned from CS.

    From the dev diaries, they had to add capacity numbers to all transport because the upkeep of public transport is now determined by capacity rather than a flat rate. So now there actually is a mechanical reason to have an appropriate number of the right capacity transit. Before, there was no reason beyond aesthetics to choose anything but the biggest option for simplicity (except articulated busses, as they were actually long enough to potentially hold up traffic while at a bus stop), but now if you actually want your lines to be cost efficient (as you often bring up in your videos), that's now actually a thing in the game.
    Also, I feel like there's an obligation that the "flame tree" has to be prominent at least somewhere in Verde Beach now.
    I am curious though, since they've said that selecting the mesh is now possible on most/all growables now, might that mitigate the random spawn clashes from content creator pack buildings if you can select which mesh it has? I'll admit I don't actually utilize any content creator packs at the moment.

  • @markhackett2302
    @markhackett2302 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Cutting ferry capacity also makes anti-sense to me too. INCREASING capacity is needed, not reducing it. Why? Because 6,000 cims will sit and wait until despawn for a ferry because it "thinks" that is the fastest way. IF cims ignored ferries and de-prioritized them (so, for example, counted ferry trips as two or three times as long as they really are), then it would be less heavily used, but that doesn't happen, so you waste space for the ferry and its lines, have to buy a spawn point for ferries, and then get nowhere because that trip never happens, it just has cims waiting to despawn or you spam ferries so they can't even fit on the water, or just not use them. Same for blimps. If they were hardly used, they could be used, but cims will prefer to use them, so you can only afford to use them for distant points and REFUSE to join it with anything else transport related, to cut on the cims even wanting it (the only use for ferries too, long distance hauls to nowhere to cut on cim selecting it). If ferries carried a ship worth, 120+ then you could use them as a water bourne mass transit, if ferries spawned trucks and public service lorries, you could use it on island hops, but those can't be done without roads, so you STILL have to build road bridges on water based maps or spam a lot of poluting garbage collection on each island along with all four RICO types to make it work, or just residential and nothing else other than an incinerator for each island with a huge footprint of pollution around it that makes it far more massive than its physical footprint.

    Aww man, I loved the fact that you had random bush fires like clockwork. You were building casually and scroll left a little and then suddenly fire. Classic

    Honestly I'm really hyped for the new ferries, it's frustrating that they don't have much capacity but the aesthetics are *chef's kiss*

  • @JRCody-ds3ec

    I really wish they also added larger ferries. My ferry lines can never keep up with demand unless I turn the slider up super high and just have a constant queue of ferries.

    Funny how parking lots seemingly don't need to be accessible to work. At 17:21 we see that access to the small parking lot is blocked by a fire hydrant. And at 18:06 access is blocked by the trees/grass on the side of the road.

  • @darrenharrison3591
    @darrenharrison3591 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Yes! I always think that city builds that do not have adequate parking are so laughably unrealistic. It's not just a U.S. thing either. I grew up in the U.K. and guess what, they have giant parking lots there too.

  • @sordcooper2
    @sordcooper2 ปีที่แล้ว

    i grew up in New York City, and i can confirm that back when the economy still stank and shit was recovering from the literal burning shit hole era of the 80's that there were a ton of parking lots, especially in the areas just outside of the financial, fashion, and theatre districts. it was actually pretty neat since they used to host flea markets on the regular to drum up extra cash on the days when there wasnt much parking. Nowadays theres like 2 open air lost and 3 or 4 multi-story parking structures that i know are still a thing. one is mostly just a make shift bus-depot, and two of them still do the flea market thing.

    Baobab trees are interesting, as they are native to Africa, Madigascar, and Austrailia, but the one in the game is clearly the Madigascar species based on overall size and shape.

    You're ignoring the biggest feature: *The plethora of bug fixes!* In particular, the damn airport cargo station now works properly! I've been hassling CO about this for over *A YEAR* to get it fixed. Warehouses are no longer ploughed under with imports and cycling/pedestrian routes are visible again. Easily the most important patch update since 1.7 with Mass Transit.

    • @markhackett2302

      Warehouses needed a LOT of fixing, because there was a "local use warehouse" modded in for a reason: warehouses were kinda useless without them.

    i can not wait to build a 'little Africa' district in one of my cities! one of the taller buildings you showed off from that pack reminded me a little of the Albuquerque plaza and the Hyatt regency Albuquerque, which are the tallest building and hotel in new Mexico respectively and some of my favorite looking 'sky scrapers'

    My number one thing is that the finally made hubs that integrate I *between* DLCs. I always found it really immersion breaking that I couldn't make hubs between trams and other forms of transit because it would remind me that it came in a separate DLC. It's nice that I can ignore that now.
    Now hopefully they'll put trams in the basegame of Cities 2, because I love them.
    After that, probably parking lots and the community sports fields are tied.

    I think the strip malls and grocers are crippled by their unique flag, but what really got my attention in this video is the position/orientation of that baseball diamond. High school players or no, that arrangement more or less guarantees that right-handed sluggers are going to put baseballs into the neighboring housing complex all the time. It would be like living too close to a gold course.

  • @Kisamaism
    @Kisamaism ปีที่แล้ว

    I *love* the idea of "African" assets! Let's be honest: Africa has an INSANE variety of architecture types. From Egypt to Morocco to Ghana to Ethiopia, South Africa, on, and on, and on - they all have insane diversity in their buildings. The ability to build a fresh, neo-modern African city from ANY region would be AMAZING!
    Happy to get something, at least!
    Also, Phil: I wish they were bannable from district zonings, but KEEP them zoned! As you had just finished pointing out, unique buildings are one-and-done. Many sad faces.

    I really, really like some of the new hubs in the free update (hoping for tram and monorail connections to airport terminals, too!) and for me, as a DJ who is visually impaired, I experience Cities Skylines as much through the radio stations as through the gameplay itself, so the fact there keep being more of them is a big plus. Also, the ability to support BadPeanut by buying his CCP was very nice.

  • @Sam-es2gf
    @Sam-es2gf ปีที่แล้ว

    I also wish you could build multiple of the malls etc. Correct me if I'm wrong, but with the seaside resorts CCP you can build multiple of the hotels etc, so it's an option. Move it is the #1 mod and that lets you copy things too. I hope going forward they remove a limit on buildings, and better yet in C:S2, have a copy/clone feature!

    The one thing I hope city skylines 2 has is the coding framework for modders to make modular districts like the recent DLC’s. I had hoped for modular shopping malls, and I also think we should be able to make modular ferry terminals (in my city we have massive terminals that are not done justice in city skylines). I just hope modders will have the power to do that in cs2

  • @LorBell

    TOTALLY agree with your #1 choice, but it DOES say 'decorative' lot, which says to me that it's not used for cars but as a decorative asset to your cities. HOPE they just chose the wrong word to describe the asset because I really enjoy adding parking to my cities!

    Very nitpicky, but I wish the larger pro stadiums didn’t have giant light poles between the spectators and playing field. In modern stadiums the lights are mounted on poles behind the spectators or to the roof of the stadium structure eliminating poles completely. You only see field level light poles in a very small and shrinking handful of stadiums left over from the 80s or earlier and even in those stadiums when they undergo any kind of renovation that’s one of the first things to go.
