Have you got a list of the mods you using in your builds please

[@Mahti77]

11:44 Tears down several big sky scrapers, replacing them with smaller ones: "Why we got so many ppl leaving our city?"

[@jimhearsonwriter]

The road builder mod was a game changer anyway, but letting you discover other people's creations is next level - that parking road is sublime. On the buses, is there not a concern that by replacing shelters with just stops, you'll lower the comfort rating so fewer people will use them? As nice as the pergola and seating looks, it's purely aesthetic.

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

I agree great addition and nah, they'll still use the busses :-)

[@blaikie79]

The fact the central subway stop is super-busy suggests to me that you need more stops in the city! 1 stop to cover that huge area is going to create horrific pedestrian congestion. Even if the city is walkable, more stops are way more realistic - look at the centre of London!

[@mrengerland943]

love me a big metro system

[@jellow90]

I think it was super busy because Biffa just deleted a bunch of building and the residents were leaving

[@Deado]

I love how beautiful your cities always turn out. Watching you build them up from nothing for years has always been a solid way to relax for me that's always around.

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

Many thanks, very kind :-)

0:12 CS1 did this sometimes with the right lighting and enough detailing but this shot (and most of the intro) at first glance I could completely believe is an actual video of a real-world place. Both games look so good in cinematic shots.

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

The camera mode is great for this sort of thing :-)

[@Al-Brown_BluesChannel]

Hmm ... I think you have deleted the bus stop by the pond (where the subway is).

[@timcotrell9753]

Nice hearing some OG C:S 1 Synthetic Dawn music in the open. The nostalgia is strong.

[@oiDani42]

I absolutely love all the ways the lane builder tool is being used! The parking streets are so useful. I’m still only playing CSI, but I wish I could use this tool. It gives you so much more freedom to customize your city.

[@anonymousperson1726]

21:40 you don't need to use road builder for everything, you could use the in gmae tools for that and have one less road cluttering your toolbar

[@jonasschoenwald671]

Once you get a new hammer, suddenly every problem is a nail

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

you can turn off the new made roads so they don't clutter your toolbar ;-)

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

I just like to have fun :-)

[@elgendo87]

Hi Biffa! Thanks for featuring my surfaces! 😊 Nice build, as always! Loved that pond!

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

It's a great pack, thanks for sharing 👍 😀

[@bigpoints101]

A single lane parking might work better to attach to the roads so it doesn't think there are 2 roads side by side coming off. It might cause a backup when a lot of cars are crossing trying to enter/exit.

[@bobblebardsley]

Taking parking off the tramlines was strangely satisfying, I feel like more roads (including normal roads, not tram/bus or anything) with parking on only one side could look really cool, e.g. to create on-road parking outside shops or to remove it alongside a park or something. The custom road builder mod/tool looks really well made, hopefully it doesn't get utterly destroyed by a future game update.

[@bobblebardsley]

Love those carpark-style roads too, such a good way to add a lot of parking spaces and not restricted to specific sizes :)

[@EdwardClayMeow]

I love all the vibrant color buildings.

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

Thanks! I feel the pop of colour works well :-)

[@gonzalorestrepozanier8892]

Years ago i had to stop playing CS as an adict Thank god you keep doing this videos, so i can have a little zip of pleasure without falling again in a total mess in my life!!! Please Biffa... keep doing this... i bought CS2 early bird... and i havent installed it yet... you are kind of my sponsor, having the vice thing hidden in my night stand, but staying sobber.!!! great videos btw, thanks!

[@christopherjunkins]

Gosh darn this is looking beautiful! All those lighting settings are doing good lately :), nice and cinematic.

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

Thank you very much!

[@carriegarrisonvos4433]

I love the colorful buildings! It gives the city character and difference from the plain old colors. The park and parking areas are perfect along with the pedistrian walking roads. Great changes and additions Biffa🤩

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

Thank you so much!

[@rellyrelishes]

I feel like the skyscrapers in that area need more room to breathe. As of right now their view out the window is another building mere feet away

[@jasonthomas208]

That road building mod is an absolute game changer, it adds so much functionality!

[@AlfalfatheAlpaca]

i think realism wise, having so much above-ground parking is for a district so highly populated. Because land prices are just so high to just use them for a few parking spaces would let you use some underground parking a bit more:D. Great Series keep it going!:)

[@MackerelCat]

Nice to see some classic Biffa landscaping in this episode.❤

[@AdamZugone]

4:12 that curve mode works by using two anchor points for the bend. It's basically shaped like a Z, where the ends of the letter are the two roads you're connecting and the acute angles in the middle are the two points you can place before connecting, and what it does is it curves around those two middle points. SO, if you want to make it work, you basically go straight out from the first road and add a point with equal distance between the two roads, then use the guideline toggle to align to the 2nd road at that similar distance, and finally connect to the 2nd road......... I'm sure this is extremely hard to follow along with xD But it's actually a great tool! You should use it more and use that continuous curve tool less 😅

[@Khotetsu]

Once you figure out how it works, it really is such a wonderful tool.

[@andy7bianca]

what the city needs is trams, trams and more trams!

[@Pakulia]

And bikes! Oh, wait :(

[@andrewwhewell6422]

Monorail. Monorail. Monorail....

[@noahkohn9350]

If you crank down the speed limit on the alley in front of the new mansion by city hall (maybe to 15, or even 10mph), the cars might stop using it as a cut-through.

[@drjonritz]

Thanks for lightening-up the shadows, Biffa! Much easier to see with lower contrast.

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

No problem 👍

[@rellyrelishes]

Really nice detailing in this episode as well

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

Thank you @rellyrelishes :-)

[@Aeonsoulful]

Looking more and more Spiffy as it goes along. All these new mods that make it so much easier to put your own personality into the build and now that we can share our own road designs takes a little of the brain power away

[@paulwebb5689]

You forgot to add buses to their stops

[@robyk65]

On the contrary, he forgot to add the two stops to the bus line

[@andrewwhewell6422]

Loving the new music! Gives it a great atmosphere and those cinematic shots really show off the capabilities of the game in terms of visuals... Looking forward to the future!

[@MrCheechopelli]

I love those Biffing Water Park segments you created there....my absolute favourite off all time of your Cities Skylines content... And you should add more subwaystations in the City...atm there´s far too many pedestrian walkthrough going on....Make Tea not war

[@emci_xp6133]

I love those parking roads! Those are really brilliant! 🤩 Maybe you should go over all parking roads a second time and check if they got traffic lights🤔

[@knochenkotzer2461]

The "pond" is way to deep lol Make it more shallow and a smoother edge and it look better

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

Just don't look in ;-)

[@anthonyortali3260]

In the nice pedestrian plaza/ transit with the new urban surfaces, if you cover all of the areas with pavers with a park area people will use the paved areas. They will use them for cutting through as well as standing around. As far as I know, there is not any way to get them to use the benches, but if you place a vanilla park with seating they will use those so you could place a vanilla park and better bulldoze away the props that don't fit, then people will use them. Bonus, you can use the area tool to drag the areas out from the vanilla park- hangaround and other- to bring more life to a detailed area. I think CO must have made the Parks DLC and the tools in CS2 after watching your old videos where you created the custom park areas early in CS1.

[@a-world-view]

Hi Biffa! There are so many good ways to make the Subway Stations head in any direction, not bound by the grid. Sorry, but that is one of the most important engineering feats in making a fast running subway.

[@unclewilco]

Maybe it's time I finally climb onto CS2 bus/tram/subway/car, the roadbuilding tool is exciting.

[@mansoorahmed3918]

Great details. One suggestion, the triangular water pond @15:00 min mark, could use a fountain in the middle

[@kn3448]

Every time Biffa mentions the tram I just hear: "Two trailer park girls go round the outside, round the outside, round the outside!"

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

😂

[@fil23ralliart]

They were Buffalo girls back in my day.....

[@bbbenj]

These parking roads are amazing! When will we have more assets, like custom metro stations?

[@brucer2152]

I love that last road with parking you found. That looks like mall parking.

[@SoDakJason]

Had a smile on my face at the use of CS1 music at the beginning and end.

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

Me too, me too 😊

[@kirstynd39]

You should name the park "Alien Rock park" as a tribute

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

Mmmm, maybe :-)

[@DanAI17]

The city's looking great! Love myself a G+T, and by that I ofc mean a gin and trees- no wait, a trees and tonic? oh no..

[@PerfectAlibi1]

Gin and Tonic?

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

😂

[@LazurizSolari]

City loops cause more congestion than they alleviate, Melbourne Australia is feeling that now and the city loop no longer has exclusive loop trains and the network congestion has become lessened

[@bogyo456]

It was so lovely to hear the old soundtrack from C:S 1 :)

[@Kimar7779]

Not bringing back Synthetic Dawn Radio! I think I miss the radio stations from CS1 the most. 💜🙌🏽

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

My fave station! :-)

[@CouchPotator]

35:09 If only the Node Tool mod from CS1 existed for this game, you could combine all 5 roads into a single intersection and then move them so it looks the same. Or if there was a way to join multiple traffic lights together, then the roads could stay the same.

[@mateuskovax49]

I think you have not added the bus stops back to the lines at the new subway station after you changed them.

[@stevengalloway8052]

Road Builder Mod has given CS2 new life, perhaps more than any other mod in either game, Biffa... 🤔

[@deepspace]

09:34 That scared the heck out of me wtf

[@Thromash]

I finally remembered to set up a subway in my city.. I then got to watch 2200 people walk from the bus stop unground. MY FRAMES! 😂 But hey, my buses can move again lol

[@jimkats1]

11:45 there were so many people leaving because you just destroyed their homes. And that's why at that moment you saw this many people going to the subway.

I wonder how feasible it would be to create a city that has soooo much public transportation, and of different kinds. anyway, Biffa the reason the subway was so busy as because you deleted like 17 skyscrapers

Hey Biffa, wouldn't it be awesome to have a cute pedestrian bridge over the little lake?

Subways don’t typically loop. They tend to be radial. I’d reconsider that change. There’s also a great subway mod that I can link if you’re interested

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

They do both quite often 👍

[@robertcooper5375]

Something I noticed on the long parking roads there should be a separation so people can cut between the two roads instead of having to walk the whole length maybe a couple of crosswalks in the middle sections of the road.

[@Wasdgamerke]

today is a good lunch being 39 seconds in. hi biffa. i

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

Nice thanks and enjoy the lunch :-)

[@StephFish1004]

Would the road dip get sorted if you bridged or key walled just that one section? It looked like the issue is both connecting roads are higher and there isn't a natural way to raise the middle bit without disrupting the level of the buildings. Just curious if that would have an effect or not. Looks good otherwise!

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

Nice idea. I'll try thanks 😊

That pedestrian street out the front of the shops, how about making the outside (the side not next to the shops) have parking and a one way road. So in theory people can drive around park up and then once they are on the other side of the trees they have loads of room to walk around *that will teach me to comment before the end of a video.

[@WillyLangley]

Did you make the road in front of the hospital a pedestrian road? Don't think that is going to work well, lol. And it turns out when you delete skyscrapers, your citizens leave, go figure...lol The parking lot road is awesome!!

[@00Drizz00]

15:17 - I have say Biffa, that in my humble opinion, there is too much foliage around the pond I say this thinking this is a small park and people can sit, but if they sit you cannot see the pond or just use shorter bushes were pedestrian can see.

[@roybmanofmerlin]

Would be great having slightly lower buildings right next to the park all the way around with taller buildings behind it giving it a step look

[@MatthewMcCaffery]

Loving the parking roads. The way you have used them gives me Milton Keynes vibes. Just need more roundabouts.

[@rynezuzinec688]

At 6:20, you have two subway lines using the same stop. This will cause issues and possibly have them delete themselves.

[@rynezuzinec688]

I linked a mod in my other comment that allows you to create interconnected subway stops that passengers can travel between. I highly recommend it

How about turning the road segment between the subway station and the new high school into a pedestrian street segment? It’s super busy, and having cars, parking, and all those people trying to get to the subway or into the school makes it feel a bit unsafe.
