Maybe if someone uses 2023 acer nitro 5 and plays this game can get me a comment on how it is going would be a pleasure.:)

I think the rail yard is designed for the double track in the middle to replace the existing double rail track, in other words to overlap and let normal rail traffic to pass through the rail yard. This way it will waste less space and the other train tracks will be easier to curve into the main rail track.

Hi. Trains can go to the depot. They just change trucks and go backwards! When I saw this I was shocked! It is amazing 😃

[@krisculin9679]

As of this posting, 2023-10-28, there is a confirmed bug (by CO) that exporting out of cargo train, sea and air do not work. The trucks come in to fill the warehouse with excess goods but nothing is ever shipped out. That's the general consensus of the bug. This is not you Biffa, but the game itself. The devs are investigating and hope to have a patch soon.

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

Where has this been confirmed by CO? All I've seen is reddit posts on it 👍

I've noticed this myself as well, lots of goods going in but the ships leaving empty. storage in the harbor is piling up

[@nico4329]

@@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylineshey biffa, following was written by co_avanya, she is a community ambassador and dev. Hi everyone. I just wanted to pop in and shed some light on this situation as resource management in Cities: Skylines II is, unfortunately, affected by a few bugs at the moment. We are aware of this and currently investigating these issues: City services only trade with outside connections, even when storage companies in your city have the resources they need. They should of course be able to purchase the resources your city produces locally. Harbors are mainly trading with your city’s storage companies, not other zoned buildings or city services. As you would expect, they should be able to trade with all zoned buildings and services, allowing your city to import and export through them. We’re investigating reports that indicate the cargo terminal is affected by the same or an issue similar to the harbors. It’s also worth noting that transportation distance affects costs. We expect that your businesses will prefer the closest storage facilities over a further away harbor/cargo terminal, however, that does not explain the reports we’re seeing. I want to apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your reports. The information you provide us is very valuable in narrowing down these issues, and should you encounter any other issues or unexpected behavior, please make sure to report them on our support forum. Response times are a little slow at the moment, but we are working our way through all of your reports and greatly appreciate them and your patience. Thank you. This is from paradox Forum i dont think iam allowed to post links but i will try it in the next comment Edit: my comment with the link got deleted. You can find the link in reddit at r/CitiesSkylines there is a post with this exact statement and in the comment is the link

@@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines Devs commented on the bug on the forums confirming that it exists and they are working on it

[@JW-hd2rl]

Love your channel mate, I think the only criticism of watching CS2 is that it's hard to get a "feel" for the city that's being built.....in no way your fault, I don't know if the snow isn't helping or the fact that there's no visual mods or maybe whenever in build mode it shows you the coloured zoning squares under the building. Like I say, that's constructive criticism of the game not you, I'll still watch it regardless!

[@neagah13]

The snow clearly ain't helping, i don't like it, it's too "everywhere"

Hello Biffa; I'm almost 40 years old and you made buy a new computer and my main purpose was just this game. I have been watching your every video for a long time (4 years maybe) and all I want to say is thank you very much for making me sitting on a computer to play games again (even my wife is not so happy about it :D ). I'm still struggling with economical issues in my city but anyway we are learning as you said. Thank you again and greetings from Turkey.

[@jzb99]

Im going to reiterate many of the comments and also say thank you for what you do Biffa, you have literally given me an entirely new perspective of Cities Skylines 1 and 2. All games have growing pains - cities skylines 1 wasnt all that awesome until it got its legs under it and the mod community went to work - I believe the same thing will happen with CS2. I have nothing but love for ya man! Thanks for all the great content.

[@Beach_Boomer]

[@thesheq5023]

Biffa- if you’re looking for realistic one track train lines: Have 2 track main lines where it’s busy Have 1 track dedicated for local traffic- usually internal. Add some 2 track sections for passing sidings. Junctions should be a single track extending from the double main (so 3 tracks) and branch your things off of that- cargo stations, yards etc. then reattach that line (called the yard lead) back to the main

[@stevieinselby]

The detail in CS2 is just phenomenal! One suggestion for this city would be to add a bus line from the railway station to the main part of the city - maybe that could run to the tower blocks rather than diverting the purple route - I'm sure that would increase the number of people travelling by train, and reduce traffic on the roads.

[@JonathanHarvell]

Through experimentation, I've found out that if you cut the tracks down by 5 meters, you can directly cross over them with a road on ground level.

[@kyleanderson3787]

46:26 we appreciate all that you do biffa 100% i like others sit and wait out the days I know your posting to watch your videos and many other creators for CS2 but I enjoy yours the most.

Hah! Lorem Ipsum text inside the botanical garden. It makes sense that they'd shortcut that but given the rest of the effort put into it, I'm almost surprised that they didn't make up some "proper" text since it is legible when you put the camera in there.

Hi Biffa. I've been an avid watcher of your city fix videos over the years (since 2019) especially when I was trying to look over some Cities Skylines tutorials over youtube. This is the first time I'll leave a comment in your channel, and I'd like to say I really appreciate your content! To be honest, I do not have a good end pc right now and the budget to buy the game, but seeing you play the new Cities Skylines 2 and show us the features around it makes me feel that I am playing the game too. Hoping for more CS2 content from you and please do enjoy your cup of tea!

I did have an issue with this game at first. It kept causing my device to reboot on its own, however I found a way to help with that. Since finding a fix for it, I haven’t had much issues with the game. It does occasionally crash but when it doesn’t, I have a blast playing this game. Of course since it came out there are bugs that hopefully get fixed. And I’m more than ready for mods. Other than those complaints, I really do love the game.

Hi Biffa. A bit of story time based on the end of this video, which is another great video, so thank you for that. I was worried about my potato running the game. It's a 4 year old pc I built to be higher end, but in today's technology most likely a mid range. When I got the game I loaded it up just to see. A lot of stuttering, lags, and freezes. So I disconnected everything, took it apart and started taking notes for new parts. Kind of wishlist mostly but, I found the problem and solved most of everything. When I built this rig, it speced out as needing a 1000w psu. The psu I bought was dead out of the box. So I stuck in the old 750w I had on hand from the old rig. When I started it up everything seemed to be running ok so over time, I just simply forgot the psu issue. When I saw the psu I decided to start there. I bought a brand new 1000w, it was only around $140 US, shipping will add on to that of course, I installed it. Now I can play Cities 2 almost no problems. I do have everything turned down, but I'm ok with that. So my adivice to all those angry, start small. It may just be that you only need to upgraded a PSU. I only follow 3 Cities creators so I think I'll paste this to the others as well.

Hey Biffa. Responding to your comments on the hate comments. I couldn't agree more. It seems to be the fashion today that a new game is released and the hate community responds in force. I believe it is due to some youtubers who specialize in critiquing games and unforunately they have a bigger audience when they spam hate rather than spam goodness. I block these haters as soon as I can. Just some kind words. I watch your videos because well, they are awesome.

5:52 For the complex bend tool, think of it as the curve road tool doubled, which allows you to create the same shape in less clicks. To do it correctly: Your "first click" should be the road you are starting from, or just a starting point if you have no road. Your "second click" should be mostly straight out from your road but also in the general area of where you want the middle of your bend to be (not the actual middle of the path you are taking, but where you want the middle of your bend). So closer to the starting point if you want the curve to happen sooner, midway if you want the bend to be in the middle, and far away if you want the bend to be later. Your "third click" would be in line with the road you plan on tying into. Your "fourth click" will be connecting to the road you are tying into or ending point if there is no road yet as this click will build the road. In the simplest terms I can think of is you use this tool to draw something like a Z and the final product will look like an S. Of course, the exact angles of the Z can be anything, even something in the shape of an L with a bar on top, it doesn't really matter, even perpendicular, such as if you deleted a leg of a 90 degree corner because you decided it was too sharp for what you want, which would then result in a curve that looks like a question mark. The flexibility in this tool is that depending on where exactly you plot your points, you can force the the S to have different curves such as a super sharp curve on the first bend and a real gradual bend on the second curve as an example. You can also draw a box and it'll create a nice U curve great for drawing in switchbacks in one go. Again, depending on where in space you actually plot your points you can influence the shape of the curves.

Hey Biff, maybe next to the rocks some more tree farming? And Power stations would be nice to get into and help with the £$¥₩

I have been watching your videos since you started working on tealand :) You have progressed quite a lot in terms of city planning. I like how you gradually reach different milestones (focusing on one aspect of city planning at a video). Keep it up!

[@jdimpf]

New Tealand brought me to watching CS. I'm not even playing the game myself but only watching you and other creators having fun and telling stories with the cities you guys are building. I wasnt aware about the hate towards the game and you creators there is around these days and it made me sad to hear about it. So let me say this: Thank you for your enthusiasm and for your dedication to bringing people joy and entertainment for all these years!

[@circumcenter13]

From the content creators, to the developers, the modders, the viewers, and players, this community has been one I have grown to cherish over the years. Beyond the early hiccups of this new launch, I have nothing but optimism and enthusiasm for what I have already seen and what I expect to come down the road. To those who expect perfection right out of the box, I'll quote one of my favorite content creators and say "don't let perfect be the enemy of good" and there is definitely a lot of good here..

[@Faltery]

It's a bit shocking that in 2023 someone releases game with so low quality textures. This snow wtf it looks like white filler from MS Paint. No shadows, no gradients at all. Borders between colours are just a straight lines lmao.

[@raphaelnikolaus0486]

That traffic jam: If I saw that right, the one on the big roundabout was only the backing up of the traffic jam that was going on on the crossing around the corner from the next crossing from the roundabout. So, Biffa would've probably only needed to fix that small crossing, putting in a roundabout there (not on the adjacent crossing!) or probably only deleting the raffic lights.

[@idno4856]

While I think you have a point, the additional changes should help to future proof the area as well. I suspect there will be increased traffic in time as the city gets built up.

[@bobblebardsley]

Kudos for that last part Biffa, and I wholeheartedly agree. I followed one of the big Planet Coaster channels for a long time and when I eventually unsubscribed, it was because every video was just about the frame rate and game performance issues, rather than being about people's parks and coasters. Sometimes you gotta just let it go and remember to have some fun while there's a sun in the sky. Cheers to you sir.

[@ScaredyGinge]

I think once people stop comparing CS1 and CS2 the bad reactions will start to wane. There aren't many games coming out that are able to run smoothly on every single PC, it's not possible without continuous updates. But what the devs are doing is amazing. If you can give them true constructive feedback, they'll know what they'll need to fix, etc.

[@kleckerklotz9620]

When you spoke of the kind words we should spread, I thought you were right. Since you are the only CSL content creator I watch, I feel obliged to leave a few kind words: Biffa, I'm watching your content for some years now. And I really enjoy it. Not necessarily because of the way you play, but because of the way you are. It's like listening to a friend talking about his favorite game. So whatever you think you need to do, just do it and be yourself. And keep in mind: Haters gonna hate. It's not your fault.

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

😊👍

[@paulknight5018]

As much as I would love a PC that would be able to run this I cannot at the moment, I will either wait for either the specs to be reduced with optimisation or till it is on console then buy it there. I am hoping that CO and paradox are trying to build at game that lasts for as long as the original. I know Biffa said to leave some love for other youtubers but this is the only one I watch city skylines 2 on. I wanted the big tea spoon to know, over the last few years of being a patreon member, you have helped me relax, help my anxiety, help get me back on a more even keel, I love the way you have stayed positive and giving the right message out, just look at a lot of AAA games coming out loads have serious bugs or optimisation issues that improve over time.

[@raphaelnikolaus0486]

Name for the Botanical Garden area: "Botany (Bay)". Or as I just read, that the origin was "Botanist Bay", either that or simply "Botania".

[@MarkGriffiths-t2c]

I cannot believe that haters are disrespecting and making hateful comments towards creators. CS2 is a great game and I love the fact that the developers have listened to players and included some of the functionality that was previously a mod. There may be minor issues with the game but these games are extremely complex and these problems will be fixed. I’m astounded at what Biffa said about the abuse of creators. They do a great job and and a service (and yes I watch several). Please, please keep up the good work guys. The vast majority support you wholeheartedly.

[@cahill_usmarshall4131]

I've always have watched your content you have created. It's actually quite relaxing to watch as you go thru the process of planning and building. I have the original City Skylines and played it for awhile but grew frustrated, tired and exhausted and gave up given all the updates and changes that caused so many issues having to fix alot of things that took alot of time to get my cities back in order. For the time I was able you play it, I enjoyed it. I didn't rant and rave and hate on it, I just quietly let it fad away. This version looks more user friendly and fun, but, I cannot afford a new system to run and play it, I was barely able to run and play the original but it worked in spite of the issues I had to worked around. I am content with watching you and other content creators and will continue to watch. I want to thank all the content creators for sharing your inspirational creativity.

[@jonblackburn7634]

I don't own this game or the previous version, but I do enjoy watching people like yourself building cities.

[@MegaLokopo]

Why does steam not give a warning if you try to buy a game that won't perform well on your system, obviously they have the data needed.

[@ChasetotheFinish]

Really do love the message at the end of this. I think it’s a great game. Loving it and playing it all the time!

[@thenamelesspoet]

That Botanical Garden is the Perfect chance to bring in the Tram's!

[@Merkreus]

Biffa, I thoroughly enjoy every single video you put out concerning CS1 and/or CS2. I learn so much watching your videos and try to mimic what you do but end up failing hard. I too have seen the hate and hope it settles down soon because I dont want to see creators quit showcasing their talents.

[@Twixman]

If you might have noticed, when using the Cargo Train Terminal, the trains go in and out the same way. This means that the locomotives will be on the wrong side of the train half the time (the game unfortunatly doesn't shunt the locomotives). You can fix this by creating the illusion of shunting and making use of the one way tracks and a stretch of two-way track. The train will back out the cargo terminal, follows the one way track to a 90 degree two-way track and go out in the direction of its destination via an one-way track out to the main railtrack. Of course coming in you will have the use the one way track also, to create a sort of triangel of one-way tracks. Hope this makes sense ;) And what @billyswong said earlier is correct, the double track in the rail yard is the same as the most far one from the stationbuilding in the passenger station, its a go-through track. Love the game btw, and allthough my computer doesn't appreciate playing at on full power, turning down a few settings makes the game enjoyable enough till te issues are esolved or I buy a better system ;)

[@cursedfurb]

you're so entertaining, thank you

[@jeddyjoo]

pleased with the game so far, currently getting 20 to 25fps on steam deck with medium settings various options disabled but to me still looks good.

[@ljmusg]

I've been dealing with the not enough customers thing by just bulldozing the complaining shops. New commercial builds in but the demand meter actually goes down. And me and my son really enjoy and appreciate your videos Biffa!
