Volume level is still lower than the typical KZbinr, but this adjustment does make it more audible than before. Keep up the good work!! Love the gameplay

[@pcp5335]

Yes!! The Audio Is the only factor Why i dient watch your Videos in the First Place. So buying a high quality microphone would definitely be a great improvement

[@rayrows1341]

If I could make one suggestion outside of volume (which was at a good level in this vid!) it would be to make your cursor larger. Sometimes it can be hard to see among the chaos of the cars moving around and it makes the video a bit confusing because it’s hard to tell what you’re presently working on/adjusting/referencing as you talk. Loving the content, keep it up !!

[@official_youtube]

+1 for a larger cursor. You: "These guys need to get over here" Me: "Okay"

[@pcp5335]

It’s not just the volume but more the audio quality as I mentioned earlier

[@Blankleder1]

Could not agree with you more. I was struggling to follow the mouse at points during the vid . Really enjoyed it tho

[@helen654]

Or use a custom cursor, with a contrasting color 🙃 Very nice video I loved it

[@moozycarrots]

17:24 “and he can have that job… with his mate. And their other friend. … And that guy.”

[@spempy]

that part made me smile. its so cute

[@elheber]

The last bridge that you didn't know where to use, could have been used at the southwest corner to bring the green neighborhood under and around the green mall, so there is no cross traffic with the reds. Other than that, super clean city!

[@Tomcoma2832]

Only thing I saw as well

[@sexyjohn993]

I thought maybe he could have used it to connect the right reds round the bottom under the dark blues because it was only a square factory and that would’ve given him another highway to be used where it was more necessary

[@ShazenVideos]

I don't think he could, as you can't connect bridges directly to a house's driveway.

[@mahayoga]

Audio levels are perfect for me, love the balance of in game sounds and voiceover! Amazing how you stay so calm, red being so much trouble!! Thanks for sharing, and looking forward to more 🙏🏽🌟

[@lunascapes]

There is a road on the lower left that was used by three colors: red, yellow, and green. Trying to directly connect that one red house on the center left caused an inadvertent mixing of yellow and green, causing yellow houses in the top right to send cars down Motorway 3, up Motorway 6, through the mall, and through the roundabout to reach the circle in the center once it became more needy. Which was, in turn the cause for congestion that made the yellow houses in the center take longer to send cars to the center circle, ironically making the problem the top right was trying to solve far worse. All for the want of a single house and all that.

[@dalekcat]

there were also 2 yellow houses connected to the road of dark blues that led nowhere for them, that was before yellow became a problem so possibly another weak point there

[@jacob._.rossiter]

Discovered your channel a day ago, binge watched all the mini motorways videos and can't wait for more. Even if it's a couple of your bad games (

[@S2isDrawingDead]

Thanks! Really nice of you to say! It was suggested i do some of the challenge maps for better or worse

[@jacob._.rossiter]

@@S2isDrawingDead oh yeah, forgot about those. Would love to see some challenge maps, regardless of how you score it's still enjoyable to watch

[@dentification9268]

New subscriber here too! I appreciate your commentary and the way you go through your logic in the game. So many KZbinrs just chat, rather than showing their thought process, which is a real shame to me.

[@augustdruzgal475]

5:08 It's hilarious that it takes the blue cars on the left an entire day and a half to travel from their homes to the building

[@samuelsherriff730]

I’ve been binging your channel and really like how you handle this game, I’d also really love to see how you take on the challenge maps!

My gpu died one day before this came out on Steam, now it's pretty much the only game I play and not even sad about it. So nice.

[@cozeecofycat6531]

Stellar content my man. Your volume is good! And as someone who's lived in Manila, I wish the roads were as efficient as in the game, hah!

[@chickennoodle6620]

Really love the calm and strategic way you’ve been playing Mini Motorways since the release especially compared to other larger KZbinrs. Also great to see how you’ve improved over the past week. Keep them coming!

[@ledfloyd9035]

I love these videos so much. There's a lot of other youtubers playing mini motorways but they've all been ruined since I've found yours. Hope to see more soon!

[@TSF71]

Been watching most of your mini motorways playthroughs and have absolutely loved them. What I have always wanted from a KZbinr. 😄

[@NICXIDE]

I don't know how I end up here, but now I can't have breakfast without one of your videos! great content :)

[@mattfifield3507]

I haven’t watched many videos, but the audio here is good for me. I really like the tips you give throughout the video, great content mate

[@caspercarz]

Sound is clear. I'm at 40% volume in average room level sound. So defo will still be clear in loud environment like a train or crowded room if I pumped volume up. Love supporting up and coming content creators. Here's to you achieving your milestones.

[@S2isDrawingDead]

Thank you and thanks for the audio feedback!

[@simonknibbs5867]

+5000 is a great score. I think the issue with yellow was the motorway[3] to yellow and green which resulted in some long yellow trips from other linked parts of the map. You can see yellow traffic bottom-left (34:18) and was the cause. Still a great score.

[@calilco]

I mean this in the nicest way possible. But your voice and way of talking is really soothing and made me fall asleep to this video yesterday. 😂 I’m back to finish watching from where I clocked out.

[@musixbox6483]

This is really satisfying to watch you puzzle it out, and relaxing. I think your channel will be really nice to watch at night. I hope to see some more of your videos!

[@auk5853]

Week 11, been after a bridge for ages for the yellows, doesn’t notice that there’s the bridge from the light blues in the centre that isn’t being used at all anymore because of the motorway 😂…. Hats off tho, discovers your channel about 4 hours ago and I’ve watched all the mini motorway videos up to this point…. Good content keep up the good work 💯

​@@Soken50It's a Metaphor its like its not made for cars

[@NEETSunshine]

I think one tricky issue of traffic jammed was the furtherest house that connected on the same road, even it's less intersection or same color though. Sometimes they just drove to the furtherer destination instead of the closer one, which mean they were wasting more time and distance to back-and-fourth on that day. So, I guess we can try to separate some, split at least 4-5 houses per exact one mall for making the flow more smooth (depending on luck as well)

[@Chintzyaxis7]

I hate how some of the coolest people on yt have the lowest sub count. Keep up the great videos!!!

[@12stem7a-santosjaysoncolli6]

Oh my, this is in my country, the Philippines! That was a lovely fun fact or something, anyway, I recommend increasing the audio more, im in a silent room with a one sided earphone and in max volume and I can hear you in a level that is a little below than what I would consider “satisfactory audibility” or something, I hope you understand what I mean. Hope you continue these videos, I really love them! Edit: Oh if you could, increase the volume of the game a little bit too, I love the fact that your voice and the game is practically on the same level, it’s somehow relaxing.

[@josemilobenigay6314]

Hiya! New subscriber here and I have to say your voice really is relaxing. Your insight into the game is really helpful too! Loving it!

[@markwright7820]

Something interesting happened at @32:24 which signalled the end of your game to me. If you look at the Red+Yellow stop off point to the left, you will see a yellow car that drives through the parking lot and then continues out onto the green+red road then along motorway 3 to the upper Yellow+Green stop off. This yellow car indicates, very strongly, that should a car become connected to a remote location it can service, it will service that thing, regardless of distance. This is huge for the metagame, as the isolation levels must be maintained to ensure efficiency. As your red and green connected paths, had a path to the Green+Yellow stop off at the top, when you linked the Red+Yellow stop off, suddenly yellow had a really inefficient path to the top, and started using it, which congested Red and Greens already mixed and congested routes further. This resulted in Red and Green sliding towards failure.

[@sparten2799]

just learnt about this game watching you play it is very mesmerising

[@kjs3033]

LOL why is this accurately Manila 😂 Basically learned that motorways are the be all end all for reducing traffic 😂 Im super impressed with the way you manage this game! Very cool calm and collected. 😎

[@evannibbe9375]

Technically a metro/rail transit system and having mixed use (with commercial areas on the first floor and housing on every other floor) with less road ways to reduce induced-demand congestion is the end all be all for reducing traffic, ironically

do they have an England map where the cars are on the correct side of the road?

[@_rairi]

Wow watching this was so cool! I'm pretty new to this game but I can tell you're a pro 🔥

[@RedPandaFlynn]

Yeh volume is still a little low. I think its the overall volume in general, as when turned up the volume of the game is at a perfect level too. So general volume boost would help. It is something that actually turned me away at first from your channel. Only with this second video coming up on my feed did I finally take the plunge (and I'm glad I did). Fix that and you're golden. You have a really good voice to listen to + general good ability to fill the time with what you say which is good to have for youtube. Couple it with a decent mic upgrade and you're going to be golden. Also, for the love of god, put your phone on silent hahahaha, felt like I was going crazy checking my phone to have nothing there xD

[@S2isDrawingDead]

Thanks for the feedback, should be up again in the next few videos coming out.

[@elijahdelporte]

Awesome video dude! Just a tip, standard internet media standard is for audio is -6db. Have a look at your recording software and do some test audio test. Watch where the top of the bar sits when you speak at your regular volume. Adjust that so its hitting roughly -6dbs. If you are generally a more quiet speaker, try a little louder than that - maybe -5 or -4db. I hope that could help :)

[@S2isDrawingDead]

Thanks for the suggestion. Learning all about Compression and Gain etc, hopefully i can eventually hit the right level

Sometimes it’s hard to see your mouse when it gets really complicated. Just saw this game for the first time on your channel and really enjoyed it! Earned a sub🥰

Found your videos recently and have enjoyed them a lot! I don’t know if it’s just me, but sometimes this game makes it difficult to follow the cursor and hard to follow what area of the map/community you’re talking about. I think some visual aids throughout the video could be really helpful!

[@S2isDrawingDead]

Thank you for the feedback. Im going to try increasing my curser size in future vids, hopefully that helps. And also try to better describe what i am looking at

[@DieCastoms]

First time to your channel. I came here because of Mini Motorways. I watch Real Civil Engineer and Biffa and one or two others. To answer your question about volume, from a new watcher, I have my laptop set at 100% volume and have youtube set at 100% volume, and am comfortable listening to you. any quieter and I would have to put on my headphones. My ONLY suggestion would be that 18-20 minutes into the video, I've completely lost track of your cursor and "this guy over here" I have no clue where you're talking about. A larger cursor or one of the 'wave ripple' effects around your clicks or something like that might be useful. (typed this before seeing the many other suggestions saying the same).

[@bmsg1]

i think when 2 or more same Collor segregated neighborhood are close, you could add a hard to reach road connecting them, so that you can see if one is in need of more houses or the other is oversupplied

[@darylgraham4313]

Dang it, now I have to download the game. Even watching a skilled player makes me want to make micro adjustments.

[@roboswap]

Audio is good, and love the commentary, but the pointer is very difficult to see. Another channel switched to a black pointer and it was a huge improvement. Maybe also make it a bit larger as well

[@trippinczar]

This video just got recomended to me and you got a new sub xD Can I suggest buying a new microphone? The razer siren mini is about 40$ and has really good audio for that price, I personally had more expensive once that had worse quality.

The sound volume is fine to me, although i did find it hard sometimes to follow where your mouse was on the screen. Idk if you can make it a little bigger or something or if im just blind.

[@EzraBradford]

7:00 Now for this motorway, would it make sense to also route a set of light blues along it like you were considering earlier? Have a commute and a reverse commute?

[@bigkh3]

late game i would have put all the lower left greens and reds together, and add a roundabout off the motorway to help flow of traffic to either distribution area. And i would have done the same for the dark blues and light blues either corner. Let them share a motorway and even a roundabout wouldnt be necessary.
