Beginners Guide: How To Expand Realistically | Cities Skylines For New Players

[@Czardus]

Did you find this video helpful? What other topics would you like to learn more about?

[@Paul-un2bj]

Will this continue & be a city build series??

[@Czardus]

@@Paul-un2bj I’m planning to build the city as we discuss different topics for beginners. This series is currently scheduled to post every other Friday (alternating with my Chicago history project series).

[@73malaki]

No it was not helpful ! Lol I'm not a noob silly 😜 However always liked your builds & your content! :)

[@HazelPlace89]

Even after having accumulated about 500 hrs in the game, I always find the "Beginner Guide" style of videos so enlightening

[@davidroddini1512]

The area between two Tesla coils is in lightning 😉

[@calt5566]

Haha yea I'm the same. Every time I come back and start a new city I end up watching these videos.

[@watchthe1369]

The town probably started as a railroad water and fuel stop. Timber and water are close by. Commecial center by the track downtown where a layover hotel might have been extablished. Thr railroad by the trees would connect the lumber industrial to the town and further down the line.

[@HBStone]

The whole parallel path section and how to properly connect two areas saved me so many headaches... Thanks!

[@Czardus]

I'm thrilled to hear that you found the video helpful. Is there anything else you'd like me to cover in future videos?

[@SuburbaniteUrbanite]

2200 hour chungus here. I find it hard to start maps because I always employ a self exposed “no delete” policy to simulate real life. This makes starting a brand new city almost impossible because I’m working off of the assumption that there will be something set up for me to work off of. I always try to find people playing on maps I choose so I can emulate their starting layout and then continue on from there. But the pain point of the game even after I do that is transportation. That is the profession I am studying in college so I always want to put those into my city but with how weird the game expands with real time and the population rebalance mod… it just makes it almost unbearable. These videos are always a treat, no matter how many hours you’ve sunk into this game.

[@Czardus]

I’m so glad you found the video helpful and enjoyable, even though you’re definitely not a beginner!

[@pincopallino5708]

Nice to see an unlock-tiles-as-you-go series! I believe it'd more of a challenge that way and makes for interesting trade-offs. Great work

[@73malaki]

We play the same WY! Would love to build with you! 😀

[@Retired_Geek_Woman]

Do you let the population "dictate" what you build next as far as amenities? My population is complaining about medical care. So should I do that first before fire or police?

[@Czardus]

Somewhat, but really I look at budget first and foremost. Deathcare is critical and must be provided ASAP. The rest can wait until you feel like you have the budget surplus to cover the ongoing cost of the service. Then I would do fire and police first.

[@joemiller3538]

Is there an episode showing the start of this city? It doesn’t seem to be the previous episode in the playlist…different city

[@Czardus]

Not exactly. I recorded the start without an intention of recording more of the city and didn’t save it. Then I later decided to do a follow up and just recreated the same style start.

[@korydrew]

I might try this game again.

[@Czardus]

It's so much fun!

[@drdoomecj]

Major Bob Ross vibes lol

[@Czardus]

I get that a lot!
