SimCity 2000 - Gameplay (PC/HD)

[@Canadas_Very_Own]

I love that “Bzzzt” sound when power lines are built.

[@CS-jk1mt]

LOL just like at 6:20

[@johnochiltree1170]

I haven't thought about that sound effect since 1997 until watching this video

[@zendoproducer2727]

That is a human sound effect 😂

[@Psythik]

Fun fact: Will Wright himself recorded the sound. It was supposed to be a placeholder, but they ended up keeping it. IMO it makes the "bzzzt" sound so much funnier, knowing this.

[@Matiaswrz]

Me too

[@rsantarelli]

Forest destruction, a police station at the edge of the city, a seaport for such a small city, 20% taxes, transit not financed at 100%... it's clearly the first time you play SimCity 2000!

[@testan8242]

Dude was wilding for 20% taxes

[@gunsgodtrump5072]

It clearly doesn’t matter if you can’t put these skills to use in real life. Cute picture by the way now I know what a chomo looks like

[@_Cato_]

@@gunsgodtrump5072 This comment is absolutely hilarious. You absolutely came for that guy’s throat for no reason at all LOL

[@Stephaniewashere]

😂😂😂 idk what's more funny. The OG post or the commenter getting all defensive

[@solinvictus4367]

Or he's the governor of California XD

[@damace8571]

Imo this type of graphics (sprites with tons of details) never gets old. utopia, a-train, genesia, this one.. Wish someone would still make these types of games nowadays

[@Famiklor]

There is TheoTown, a very good game. ^_^

[@TimothyMarois]

I'm currently working on an isometric city game. There really isn't people doing it anymore, I'm trying to focus on the simulation aspect with more poliicies/controls instead of graphics. But still a long ways away.

[@LazyKatt503]

​@@TimothyMaroiscan u show the gameplay?

[@kaneofnod]

@@TimothyMarois too right. The Sim city flag has been dropped but never properly picked up. Come back and drop a link if you make a kickstarter or need testers. Cheers and good luck!!

[@TimothyMarois]

@@kaneofnod Thanks! Would that be something you would support via Kickstarter if the game has a lot of potential? I have to decide if that would help get the resources I need to have a releasable product.

[@treywashington9768]

I used to be hooked to this game so viciously

[@exsosus5002]

Tip! In beginning, lower your taxes to lowest: 7%, let it roll for 4-5 years, and you'll be rolling in cash. Then you build more. This is how real cities get built.

[@kaneofnod]

Thanks! Any other tips?

[@micnorton9487]

​@@kaneofnodYeah,, you put water on the side of a hill and it doesn't matter if there's any water making a river,, you just slap it onto the side of a hill then put a hydroelectric power plant tile so one complete hydroelectric tile is $500 ....... If you create a "mountain" in the top corner out of 10 by 10, you can fill 99 hydroelectric power plants, have as much power as your city will ever need and there isn't a river above it or below it and you don't ever have to replace it...

[@kaneofnod]

Awesome 😎 Perfect timing too because Sundays are retro game days. Loading this sucker up on my Dell XPS 4100 as we speak. Thanks!

[@ghostrider-be9ek]

even better - demo the roads to connecting cities and trap everyone inside - THEN max out everything and CUT all services EXCEPT roads

[@skweedom]

Witnessing here some gameplay for the first time since the late 90s. Great game.

[@jurassicparkboom2426]

Legendary PC game!

[@thermonator0104]

I played it in NES

[@nymets17]

This game was so good

[@AmodeusR]

Begins to build a city taking off some trees in a desert area without anybody yet 2 secons later *UUHHH!! Citizens a protesting against forest destruction*

[@isoboy2125]

That's how you attract citizens. By offering them a reason to protest. 😁

[@ghostrider-be9ek]

game was hilarious - i used to demo the connecting roads to neighbrouing cites and intentionally create a 'recession' to make money from stupid taxes - then I would lower them to nothing

[@davedeleeuw9197]

I came here for the music! :D

[@EldenSoulsVids]

lol the power lines sound is literally just someone making a zzz sound

[@ToxicCatt-y7c]

Bringing back old memories when my mom bought me and my sister our very first computer and we didn’t have internet or cable yet. Also gotta love the video game logic of people protesting when there’s not even a city hall or anything built to protest at.

[@WilliamScavengerFish]

Placing 2x2 squares of alternating residential/commercial zones is one way.

[@micnorton9487]

Yup,, you can make checkerboards of 2x 2 buildings of all types...

[@Kickingit06]

I always liked SimCity 2000 the best. I think I ran into issues playing SimCity 3000, but I don't recall exactly what.

[@Gadoworld]

The builder didn't even build something and there are people protesting.

[@TheOneEyedHound]

Sooo nostalgic. Ty for this.

[@joeycampbell5680]

I like how he tears all those trees down on the Start pissing off the citizens and wasting money 🤣🤣

[@user-ui7iy4vk1e]

Just remember how I was building hydropower(?) stations. And power lines from them to my zones.

[@alimian3637]

Nostalgia used to play on Mac

[@brunomendes7294]

how did you play in this resolution?

[@thebutcher1412]

Is this the gog version of the game ?

[@temestokles5214]

I played this for hours as a small child But never got any houses to develop. I remember putting water. But never electricity straight onto the developing fields. Was that the missing piece? I always thought we were lacking the proper game license and just had a demo version. 😅

[@hothmandon]

I downloaded SimCity 3000, I was shocked to discover you don't have to put power lines directly into a Zone. I still feel I should have downloaded SimCity 5, but steame recently got rid of that, so I'll settle for SimCity 4.

[@ministrandooevangelhoporce1535]

Top muito legal

[@mr.unknown9590]

Hey dude, this doesn't looks like the dosbox version. Can you tell me where did you dowmload it? Thanks.

[@ToleasekEdit]

It is better to play Theotown

[@JonathanVachon777]

​@@ToleasekEditmmm was trying to find a good city game. Gonna look at this one

[@miryammiele2295]

​@@JonathanVachon777SimCity 4 with network mod

[@viscourtroy]

Holiday Island is the simpified version of SIM city.

[@WilliamScavengerFish]

Haven't played this in years.

[@dragonscorpy3860]

Hey why don't you play some simulator games like that

[@Kamelot19]

any way to get the pc version with ps1 soundtrack?

[@Sjaan_Banaan]

What the hell are you doing😂

[@watercon9794]

Nice

[@the_improvtherapist]

BUDDAMUS

[@raviolihands5347]

ONLY REAL ONES KNOW WHAT THAT CODE DID LMAO

[@the_improvtherapist]

@@raviolihands5347 YESSSS!!

[@thomasvleminckx]

definitely-not-a-guy: "Bzzzt!"

[@mr_rowboto]

You play like a pro politician: RAISE TAXES, CITY WITH 2 HOUSES CRASHES AND BURNS, MASSIVE EXODUS OF INDUSTRY AND COMMERCES... SOLUTION: DEFUND THE POLICE. The only thing this game is missing is money printing.

[@dragonscorpy3860]

Oh noice

[@JoeCambo]

1:58 Zzzzt!

[@ExpertCriticism]

YOU CAN'T CUT BACK ON FUNDING! YOU WILL REGRET THIS!

[@IvoryTrance]
