Completing the Space Elevator's Coastline - Cities: Skylines - Asturis 34

[@indigo_carmine]

that opening shot of the space elevator is 10/10

[@pelikangabor]

It's slightly off-center so 9.8

[@cameron224_]

Those ships outside the dockyards from last episode need lights so they can be seen. It would be kind of cool to see a lot more ships out in the bay the same way you might see out of other major port cities like Hong Kong and LA.

[@teiyeyia]

I loved how the Mars Base houses turned out! It looked quite odd and out of place at first, but the foliage absolutely helped in the end

[@kertaspaper94]

Somehow I didn't realize that we're past 30 episodes. Damn I still feel like Asturis has a long way to go in terms of development

[@ImAPotato.]

Yeah, his attention to detail is insane!

[@regulate.artificer_g23.mdctlsk]

_Oh yeah. It's all coming together now._ That blue bioluminescence in the coast is a nice touch too.

[@Brohail]

32:46 the best riiight from Akruas of all time 😂

[@saber1885]

wake up babe, new akruas video

[@ultmateragnarok8376]

The opening shot to this was amazing. Very nice touch. This project's uniquely large scale does show itself well in the video, and is accentuated by how the crashes forced you to bounce around a bit more - it sure felt like there was just so much to do and so much accomplished. I adore the way this area has turned out, and I think one of my favorite spots has to be that rocky bay behind the island cluster, where the tram and pedestrian bridges cross over it. Such a cool spot. The surrounding buildings work so well too, fitting the theming of the whole city but being very distinctly unique to here, and sure would look really neat from the roof of the elevator's base, where I am certain there are some impressive moneymakers in the form of those pay-to-use mounted binoculars for looking over the entire city from off its coast. I quite like those four-story multifamily homes, they do look pleasing and if slotted together as wall-to-wall buildings probably could work quite well as the lower end of high density too. The bigger Mars base structures are, despite their size, likely significantly lower in capacity (a base would have them be efficiently housing people, but the interiors would be vastly different to that in this case, they might serve, like, four families or even just one very large and very rich one), and when their windows glow at night it looks somehow even more incredible. And probably very power-hungry, those are quite bright. I do hope that, if you do further ride-perspective videos, that we eventually see one with the perspective of that high-speed train that goes straight through the middle of the map. Seeing the elevator in the distance as it approaches the city would be _so_ cool, as would travelling at such high speeds straight through so many different features that all make way for this one straight shot.

[@Jazz-Man1910]

This is one of my favorite series! The futuristic theme is so creative and interesting for this game.

[@Nullppointer]

Amazing work! I love how you worked with building density - those large footprint buildings really connected the high density area with the less dense residential areas However, I have a couple of feedbacks that could maybe enhance this area: -That train station looks super out of place, specially for Asturis! People need to walk on a noisy road-like street, with no commercial buildings nor pedestrian infrastructure, and to get there they need to cross a huge intersection that doesn't even lead to a major center. Those slopped areas next to the train station (or even below it) could be something more useful: shops, parks, gardens, anything; and there could be at least one overpass so cims don't need to cross that huge intersection at street level (since the station is also elevated -The martian houses are super interesting, but it's very hard to get a sense of scale on them. The trees certainly helped a bit, but maybe other props (like pools, garages or parasols) would help us understand how large they are. -I know you did that area low-detail on purpose, but I missed umbrellas and tables in these commercial but lower density areas - consider adding them at least where they'd be visible from the 1st person tram ride! Also, on the beaches you added it could be nice to add some small shops or kiosks, since they're pretty much urban beaches and not secluded tropical paradises. I really love your cities and I understand you can't fully detail everywhere, but give these ideas a thought if you ever revisit this part of the city!

[@jan-lukas]

Maybe lore-wise that train station was built during a time when pedestrians weren't appreciated as much and we it's not a central part of the city nobody bothers fixing it

[@Nullppointer]

@@jan-lukas I agree it's plausible, but while I love the "historical misdesigns" from Altengrad, I'd rather have Asturis as a properly utopian city

[@fischwaldexplorer1470]

"And it turned out looking... ok." oK?? I think your builds look amazing

[@ComradeCovert]

Finally the city feels connected and whole! from empty green patches with public transit to a bustling metropolis - beautiful!

[@dialog_box]

This feels like the most realistic part of the city so far. Not that realism has to be the goal! I've loved this entire series, and the master-planning is absolutely what I come here for! But like you said at 29:37 it really just feels like a proper city district. There was no master-plan from the beginning, it more like "aw heck how are we gonna fill in this area… uhhh well we need this and this and this" and it just built out naturally and haphazardly like a real city kinda would

[@henryzhang7661]

Another masterpiece of urban planning! The opening shot is literally picturesque! Hope for the next videos!

[@dialog_box]

18:53 i know this is like the least important detail ever, but my mind won't stop focusing on it. please give those curbs a radius, i'm begging you 😭

[@jonprice3342]

It's like watching a developer using Unreal Engine. It astonishes me how a simple game like Cities Skylines can turn into this amazing simulation using complex intricate details that actual developers of most games forget to use; but it's in this. 😯

[@Iwabik]

I love your builds, they are unmatched. While I'm looking forward to CS2, I'm a bit scared we'll have to wait a looong time to get it to the point CS is currently. I feel like with all the mods, right now the only limitation is your imagination.

[@Akruas]

Yes it will probably be a while, but CS1 isn't going anywhere

[@teomaninan5554]

What a nice build. Would like to see ruined castle in coastline

[@nickh509]

I feel bad for those nice house beaches since the view of the water is blocked by trees lol

[@macex527]

Hey, I have an idea whats still missing: A fire or rescue centre with some futuristic rescue vehicles, helicopters, drones, ...

[@shakestylz2823]

Those night shots are so awesome!

[@timgro7912]

Very nice Video, love your Content :)! Is there at any Point a Video planned like a drive through, like that with the tram but with a car?

[@atcatpl]

I also experienced these crashes (yesterday)even though I don't have that road asset, the lastest update might have broken something

[@juanibanezsoro6641]

love that kind of small towns

[@baloy772]

I would like to see a race track here. It gonna be an amazing Grand Prix

[@Triliton]

Lucky residents! Id love to live there!

[@maiv9434]

i can't wait to see the ride. honestly so excited

The railway junction where the tracks split to let the cargo trains under them is just floating in the air!!!!

Missed opportunity at 16:10 to say "this project has everything everywhere all at once" :-)

[@VistokDB]

How i live your builds, they're amazing 100000000/10

[@bluespace6199]

Hello akruas first off i love your cities skylines content and how you can make such amazing cities, but I must ask do you have any plans to make a more dystopian city in the future by chance? Austuris and Aurelia are what I would consider a more utopian city so I would very much like to see you to try your hands at making a more dark and griddy city compared to your other city builds. Anyways enjoy your content and cant wait to see what you have instored for the future!

[@worldwidebear1967]

Do you know what I missed on the beach, some kind of Kiosk. Where you can buy something to drink, or Icecream. A toilet and more Palm trees for shade. Things like that.

[@sor3697]

what if you added some mansion in the hills behind new coastal area. It would round the city off perfectly

[@morrischen5777]

The highway interchange is just located right outside of the tunnel. This is unusual and possibly dangerous...

[@steef9591]

What asset do you use for the fake tunnels at 11:53?

[@Owlndd]

wow !

[@bubblegumrick7870]

[@chebikitty5566]

that small hole between the buildings at 21:35 not the one that is decorated but the one to the left is bothering me, idk why but it is. I saw it and now i can't stop thinking about it.

Great city. The game looks so smooth on you. How many FPS do you have in the game? 🙂

They way the high density just abruptly turns to low density looks a bit unrealistic

[@jan-lukas]

Just look at the US I guess, that's what happens there

[@TyresaerysTargaryen]

@@jan-lukas with US cities its usually miles of suburban housing and shopping districts before the downtown core. this is lacking a gradient transition to the core imo but that may be due to game limitations and space i guess

[@cyberlinknetwork]

The work is good but too much congestion of the building

[@KEYshineeMYP]

when you say something is 'okay' i have no idea what you mean like you say it with such disdain, are you not happy with anything you build?

[@dominikzabraczky5983]

[@pasqualnotari5110]

Please stop randomly combining buildings wich doesn't fit, I beg you 😂 There are lonely, isolated and single buildings, eventhough they are next to each other.
