Beginners Guide To How To Start in 2025 (Cities Skylines for New Players)

[@kevinmertel6108]

The best takeaway you mentioned is not to overbuild in the beginning.

[@Czardus]

Indeed!

[@s0vnds]

Amazing tip, I tend to go overboard early in tycoons and set myself up for failure 😅

[@mikef55]

I know, it's so easy to try and expand and expand and expand

[@Preppyaesthetic-vc1xr]

I did that first and I realize that’s not good idea😂😂😂

[@ThatGuy-du3sq]

I use to overbuild in Tropico 5 and it was easier for me to get the happiness up. It wasnt a good idea for this game. Always start small and build your way up.

I'm playing this on ps5 - the ps4 version of the game. I followed your video. The first time, I failed, but the second try saw my first milestone. My little town is running perfectly, and I'm just about to expand. Thank you so much for a wonderful series. I'm checking out more of your videos. 😊

[@Czardus]

Nice job!

[@candle3585]

Tried building it on console, works just about right. The only thing is that we don't have on land water treatment, so I set up a sewege pump on the edge of the river. (Make sure to check water flow's direction to not pollute your whole river with garbage!)

[@Czardus]

If you're wondering about the water treatment plant, the one I'm using is the inland water treatment plant from the Sunset Harbor DLC. If you don't have that, you can see this video for other options: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJ7Jio2Zjc50iqc

[@hermaj2]

Thanks!

[@Czardus]

Wow, I'm way behind in saying THANK YOU for the super thanks!

[@gvshg]

Yo, I have a question. So I'm basically new to the game and when you said I need inland water treatment, I went to the water section and I don't have the inland water treatment option. Anything else I can use instead of the inland water treatment?

[@Czardus]

The inland water treatment plant is part of the sunset harbor DLC. Without that you will need to just dump your sewage into a river or ocean. Be careful not to let the sewage enter your water supply. Alternatively if you are playing via steam there are some water treatment options available on the steam workshop.

[@b33p]

@@Czardus oi "how to start in a fail-proof manner that all new players and beginners can replicate for success" Not true, you're showing a version of the game with DLC which not all new players have. No idea what I'm doing with these pipes 😂

[@MarcFutoran]

@@Czardus I'm still putting things together with this game. There is a lot of stuff about I haven't gotten close to understanding. And so much DLC! It can be a bit overwhelming.

[@PauxloE]

For easier road upgrade later, you might want to leave one cell more space for the first block around your future arterial/collector roads, so you can expand them without losing zoning space. (Or you just unzone near them later, and have some park space.)

[@Czardus]

I find it acceptable to lose the little bit of zoning space. :-)

[@pekwalker]

I just picked up this game on sale and was looking for a good tutorial. I really like the way you present stuff and have subscribed. Thanks for making this quality content.

[@GameOnAileen]

I bought a few games from Steam's recent management sale, but I forgot that I only have so many "spoons" available these days so I became overwhelmed quickly. This helped MASSIVELY. Thank you!

[@Czardus]

Glad you found it helpful!

[@jawadarif987]

Whats ur name mate ​@@Czardus

[@johnderperez]

Makes sense! I once started a build where the city was so far away from the highway because I wanted it to be close to the waterfront. Needless to say the upkeep of the long roads heading into the city kept giving me cashflow issues in the start, and I used paved roads lol. I didn’t realize the water tower and on land water filtration were options from the start. That’ll save me a lot of time and money on my next build. Thanks for the great video!

[@allisonhanton5613]

How are you able to use the water filtration plant? In my game, it won’t unlock until I hit a population of 16,000 meaning this design is unusable 🙁

[@jhonrosales551]

Thank you so much! I just started playing this because I was bored of repetitive action and adventure games. I tried it for the first time yesterday, the game's great but I keep getting into bankruptcy because I kept on overbuilding, and I don't know what to do.

Yes, the inland water treatment plant is part of the Sunset Harbor DLC. If you don't have that, you have to dump your sewage into the water. Just make sure you watch the water flow and don't let it get back to your water intake (if you're using a water pumping station instead of a water tower).

I definitely needed this. I played the hell out of Simcity back in the 1990s. I'd play at work when no one needed any tech support. Oh man, those were the days. We didn't even have the internet. We did have a 9600 baud modem though so I was all over the local BBS scheme. I probably downloaded Simcity from one of the warez sites. I did eventually buy the box copy because I wanted a sequel someday.

When I look at my water utility options I only have water pipes, water pumping stations, water towers and water drains available. There's an outline of a generic water treatment plant that it says I'll have access to when my city has 16K people. I only have the basic version of the game running on a M1 MacBook.

Another question on a similar issue (if you have a moment) relates to unlocking features while staying with the basic (vanilla) version of the game. Many become available as your city grows of course. I wonder if there are other ways of unlocking features in the basic game without using mods. Do you recall how the ability to create custom parks (i.e. nature reserves) is unlocked? The only type of district I currently have available is the generic type. I notice in your video Starting the Nature Reserve - Cities Skylines Vanilla you have available what looks like a parks districting tool as well as the features like the Nature Reserve Main Gate etc. Besides reaching population milestones, are there other ways some of these features are unlocked?

[@Czardus]

It is from the sunset harbor dlc. If you don’t have that then you will need to dump the sewage into a river.

At the begging, how do you already have the in land water treatment, i dont have it

[@uhavemooface]

Why did you only make one video for this? I have been looking at your videos and this is the only one you made. Is there no playlist for this? I wanted to see more of this.

[@Czardus]

This was the only video I made of this specific build. It was part of a series of tutorials targeted at new players and you can watch the rest of that series here: Cities Skylines for New Players kzbin.info/aero/PLDPMzZQglG8Dkz8JNfY2unhNIhg7u00UU You also may enjoy my Springfield series which was a vanilla walkthrough (but doesn’t have the most recent DLCs): m.kzbin.info/aero/PLDPMzZQglG8BRqqgl0eh4rM1jMs5FL2zF Also my Wareham series is good for new players.

I don't recall which one I'm using, sorry.

Am I missing something because I don’t have the inland water supply or anything like that and I’m on Xbox, so how am I supposed to play the game if I can’t even get a water supply going

Man Can someone help with the inland water treatment plant ? Is that dlc or mod cus I can’t find it in the workshop so guessing it’s dlc ? It’s not in my game ? Edit: sunset harbour dlc. Found it.

[@latricewd]

Hi me and my husband love playing the game we play on stadia we would like to know what is needed to play it on the computer thank you 😊

[@Czardus]

Glad you like the game! If you just want to play the base game you can follow the publisher's recommended system requirements. If you add any DLCs or custom content from the steam workshop, you will need to get more RAM.

[@ltlcorp4488]

This is going to be trouble I see.... very first thing casually says build a road..... and delete it. How do I delete road, garbage can not active?

[@Czardus]

Use the bulldozer. B button is the hot key.

[@alireyes4219]

How did you undo? I make mistakes all the time and cant seem to undo them, like putting a building/road in the wrong place.

[@rogerbarcus4151]

Xbox is x button as long as you are not in any menu

Got the game today, really helpful video

[@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?

[@delobster7711]

Thanks for this guide. I followed it but my residents were asking for sewage and i didnt see that on your video? I also dont have a water treatment plant.

[@marielledelaine]

omg i don't know why I didn't think of connecting the entrance and exit LOL! I am a beginner and, despite using paved roads and starting with wind turbines for energy, I somehow managed to get a really cramped and extremely prosperous city ( 1.5 million cash in bank and $13,000/ week income even with the funding for some services at 150%), but the entrance/exit are separate and look so weird..... traffic is a huge issue as well because those darn trucks! and i have shops sprinkles around residential areas. I did make separate entrances and exits closer to the industry but the idiots don't ever use them. Now I have to try these tips on a new save.

Very helpful video! Is there a part 2 where your going to continue on this map?

[@Czardus]

Unfortunately I didn't continue on this map specifically (because I didn't originally plan a part 2 and didn't save the city) but I did create a part 2 to the video using the same basic setup.

[@jouri20]

@@Czardus ah alr thx

[@stephenscheiderer702]

I was following this tutorial on Xbox series x and when you got to the water treatment plant I couldn’t go any further because I didn’t have an option for one until population of 16,000
