Building an Island Military Base | Cities Skylines 2 Let's Play

[@nevets1726]

I think it would make more sense to have a quay wall around the military base, rather than the natural land. Since you don't have a surface painter, adding a rigid quay wall with sharper, less natural angles can help make the island feel a bit more man made

[@MihailBFC]

true

[@GueroNate2006]

As someone who lives in San Diego California, a city with a lot of military bases, north island being the biggest, search up Coronado and see how the north island has been terraformed a lot and seawalls placed around it or large amounts of rocks, usually much more straight lines and unnatural landscaping when it comes to military bases and they are usually in more strategic locations, for example north island is at the entrance to the San Diego bay

[@matthewstewart8607]

Could a pedestrian bridge over the base entrance road make it look like a security checkpoint?

[@shiksheka]

Hey Timeister! Great video! I think you can add some more watchtowers since they add that miitary vibe to the area. Maybe two on the main road that is bringing the traffic to the island and some office building near it which can somewhat act as military base entrance. A single railway line coming to the area can increase the military look ig. Cheers.

The base should be connected to the city by a small bridge. We can just pretend it raises up as part of the checkpoint. Some I’ve found were Rock Island Arsenal, Illinois and Santahamina Island outside of Helsinki, Finland. Love the series and the way the whole metro is coming together.

This is a good idea mate, it's good sometimes to try something unusual and innovative

[@camtabatabaie1467]

I think on top of seawalls or quays, less green space and more concrete makes sense for something like this. Maybe sea access as well. A military base out in a rural area feels more likely to have trees and paths and such. This probably would be all concrete.

[@hamzay8805]

Another video idea could be redevelopment near downtown Brixton, you can remove the industries near the downtown and reclaim the land for residential and commercial development and develop a new industrial park outside the city

[@TS-hq1rt]

such a clever idea!! an idea for future expansion is a regional airport might be cool to turn it into an airbase 😄

[@generalflopper9697]

I think there is an upgrade for the police headquarters that allowes a helicopter! Same for the Hospital!

[@TooMuchTytan]

A military expansion pack would be soo cool!!!

[@addictedtocod]

I think you should extend the island a bit more and put the smallest airport on the base for it to look like a militsey base and have the helicopter pad near it too. Other than thar i love youre builds i cant wait till xbox has the game youre city looks amazing

[@aleksaokuka1534]

Idk if there are old military forts in cities skilines 2 but you can fit one on the island besides the military base

[@gp5313]

When you make an aeria, you should contain the 2 small islands too

[@ivanwilcox7350]

Love the video as usual I wanna ask if you are interested in doing one of those fix your city type videos like biffa does i have a city with 150k Idk could be a good break from your usual videos and i kinda just want to see my city on youtube lmao

[@craigroaring]

Building a military base is the only reason to keep natural disasters on.

[@aryankhandelwal787]

idk could had added a random train line

[@WinnieDaPuh202]

Hey man this was a great video you should add a sports center for the soldiers So the can get fit

[@carrieactually2561]

You could make the military base a gated community

[@kevalgambhava]

military base should have AIR STRIP

[@MihailBFC]

THIS.

[@dready86]

Sorry bro this is a military outpost not a air base so no.. your wrong

[@shreyashparkhi9525]

Hey there, you should use dirt roads for the base

[@dready86]

Seeing how it's a high budget island coming off of a city not in the middle of nowhere also it's not big dirt roads in this scenario wouldnt be realistic

[@dready86]

I love it bro keep up the content. I would really like to see you implementing mods but if you are goung for pure vinnila i fck with it

[@JohnBlaze142]

26:26 they look more like 6 epcot spheres

[@yeetmaster1347]

there is a mod that could paint the ground to look like pavement

[@WinnieDaPuh202]

You should add a hospital of some sort. Because the soldiers could get injured and need medication!!

[@ScarybaboonGTAGGaming]

You can use a district to ban non job viechles

[@nathanlee5480]

I think you should put more welfare centers.

[@tarekmeirelesk9177]

Why don't you try to make a giant city, like joining all the cities you made and making a city like Los Angeles for example, without any part of the "empty" area, all would be interconnected forming a giant city, and the other cities like Quincy Harbor, would be part of the metropolitan region, as if it were Bixton, but a different city

[@MihailBFC]

a military base is literally surrounded by forest...nice build tho.

[@AlbertKlinger]

you need barricks

[@GaganVishnoi]

nah mate.....
