The New Ultimate Beginners Guide to Cities Skylines 2

[@CityPlannerPlays]

Hope you enjoyed the video! Special thanks to Palm's Time for letting me use the map! Check out their channel here - www.youtube.com/@PalmsTime Want to see the save? It's available on Paradox mods - mods.paradoxplaza.com/mods/84973/Any

[@AeliusAnonymous]

Do you still believe they will one day release on console? I know you mentioned it, but the just delayed it indefinitely and it feels like Paradox has been trimming a lot of fat from their portfolio lately

[@Tohru_Gaming]

@@AeliusAnonymous I believe Paradox has said in the past that they are contractually required to release a console version, so it’s highly unlikely they won’t release one. That said, it could very well be released and abandoned 6 months later, with no bug fixes. Especially if Paradox decides to cut their loses and drop the franchise

[@truedarklander]

@@Tohru_Gaming They are not going to drop the franchise.

[@carlosross4194]

Loved this video hoping to see the next one drop soon! Great map!

[@mazzidk9869]

Could you please post the map save but with only the grid?

[@NewoNZ]

You make this look so much easier than it actually is. You commented at one point that by laying out all the roads first you are developing the city backwards. I'd love to see you do a video where you try and build as close as possible to the way a normal city would develop naturally (Specifically focusing on how the road layout would organically develop rather than having the foundations already down).

[@dae207]

Would love to see that too.

[@thomasquiggle952]

Would love to see that too.

[@jacobhenriksen2324]

This is a brilliant idea!

[@Paintstationminis]

@@NewoNZ I'd like to see this as well.

[@TheInfiniteAmo]

If you want to see a city developed in that historical manner check out Akruas' Altengrad series. Extremely different from CPP since he plays heavily modded and basically ignores the simulation and game itself, but he goes in extreme depth on real historical city growth from the start of the 20th century to today.

[@BryceMcSherry]

Oh thank god this series is back after economy 2.0. All my successful cities at this point are played with all tiles unlocked so I can build industry early.

[@_eighty8]

Not sure if you already know this, but zoned industrial has minimal pollution. It doesn't need to be very far from resedential

[@optimistmatt]

Btw you can buy tiles far away from existing ones…they don’t have to be connected directly

[@dealbreakerc]

@@optimistmatt yes, but you need to get services to those isolated tiles.

[@optimistmatt]

@@dealbreakerc true true

[@christopherbelanger6612]

You can easily get a sustainable city going on the initial tiles. It got even easier with the detailing patch and the new service buildings.

Even with 260 hours in the game I found this to be useful. I took a long break while they were fixing the game and this kind of got me back on track to push through builder's block.

[@justaskin8523]

I'm partway through CPP's episode, and I'm in the same boat as you. This is good to get the city building brain muscles working again!

[@nomenbeb5747]

Is the game really that broken and full of bugs how people say?

[@Andeca0]

I’ve been following you for years and several other content creators, mainly for CS1. There is no one that comes even close to you in making tutorials. You have such pedagogical capabilities and you put them masterfully in these outstanding didactic guides. Thank a lot and congratulations

[@CanEHduh88]

agreed STONGLY!

[@CBGBBB]

I really think after more mods and updates happen over the next few months this game is gonna finally be what people have been waiting for.

[@The_Bliz]

With the base game incorporating a couple important mods from C:S1 and the modding community already going ham, I think the majority of concerns are handled. Now seems like a great time to get into the game with the Economy 2.0 patch done.

[@RobertDoornbosF1]

​@@The_Bliz The amount of content is still definitely an issue. Replayability is very low because of it.

[@nothellhaven]

Unless they fix performance on top of that I don't think people are going to choose CS2 over CS1

[@saschaz.8243]

They need to work over that ridiculously high tile upkeep once more though. Challenging is one thing discouraging another and I feel that extreme upkeep to be the latter

[@christopherbelanger6612]

@@saschaz.8243 The tile upkeep is a non issue for new city starts. If it is a issue then you spread beyond your means. Just check your income before you buy a tile, it's really that easy. You can make a sustainable city on the initial tiles and go from there

I just got this game tonight and it is downloading now. I've never played it before. I did love playing Sim Copter and Sim City many, many years ago. I am probably showing my age at this point. Lol. I think that was well over 20 years ago. Thank you for making this video. I've watched a couple the past hour or so and this one is explaining the depth of a "good start" immediately it seems. This game is much more involved than I realized and that is amazing. Looking forward to playing it now and looking forward to binge watching your videos. You have a new sub.

[@VaingloriousGaming]

42:55 did I hear the pain in your voice from learning that lesson about coal power plants needing garbage collected...

[@CP3oh322]

I had the same issue! I was already on a tight budget when I built the plant, the trash backed up and the efficiency halved, and when I built a landfill nearby the trucks seemed to refuse to visit it. Kinda killed my build.

[@jasonavelino7096]

Same here thats why I always save now before building large buildings/services 😂

[@gijskramer1702]

​@@CP3oh322 put a district around the power plant and assign the landfill only to that district so the trucks are forcee to go there first. Once the trash is collected you can unassign the landfill from the district

[@justaskin8523]

IRL we have an oil power plant in the outskirts of my city's region. It is less than 5 miles from the county landfill complex. And that's as it should be.

[@SylvieCanuck]

Heh, I noticed it too and remembered the lovely time he had on the stream city build of "Poplar". It was a lesson learned by many that day.

Thank you so much, I put off the game a few months ago and just now I've been coming back and with your videos and other creator's like Infrastructurist and FewCandy I've managed to get a basic understanding again, along with mods. Hopefully this guide helps me after these new updates!

This video is soo good. I didn’t even realize how badly I wanted this until I watched it. Phenomenal work here, Phil.

[@humanname1458]

This isn't just a tutorial, it's a masterclass. You make city building seem so elegant and like works of art. The way the grids come together and the way you connect them all is just so seemless

[@WiglyWorm]

You make great guides and I love your story based approach to simulating. You've inspired my multiple playthroughs. I haven't played economy 2.0 yet but i'm looking forward to it.

[@cornellgrant1759]

Bro you are the best! I've been watching the Magnolia series and others long before I started playing CS2. Now that I've started playing again and watching the new 2.0 series, provides a whole new perspective on the game for me! Thanks!

[@Punkologist]

This is by far the best cities skylines 2 video I have seen. I always struggle especially at the start where I end up with the most ugly, boring and unrealistic grid possible.. Even though you started it as a grid, it's still not boring and it looks realistic. I love some of the little details you explained, so many things I didn't really think of that are going to make my new city I plan to start tonight after work look so much nicer. You really have inspired me to make my next (and first) masterpiece!

[@coach.pattie]

One suggestion for the next time we do lots of road building, if you could talk a bit more about how/why you angle the grids you do and slow that bit down that would help a ton! Maybe you could use the draw tool to mark the key orientation points along the map like you did with the industry/community areas? I was building along, but my second grid orientation was all off so I had to make some adjustments. Once I figured out why you oriented the way you did, it made sense, just got confused while following along ^^;.

[@AnyoneforTea]

Im doing the same thing, building along is so much fun but I was a bit stressed with the road layout.

[@makinbacon415]

the video i've been waiting for! as someone who is kind of overwhelmed with what mods introduce and functionally do as i'm still learning the basics, seeing what you can do with the vanilla toolset with these most recent patches versus the nightmares we were making at launch is pretty incredible

[@lizzsigmon]

oh my gosh!! I can't get over the built-in surface tool - I always HATED that a property's grass/landscaping abruptly stopped. That little extra detailing on the farm at 26:20 makes allll the difference.

Being a fairly experienced C:S 1 and still having some hours in C:S2 but I hadn't played in a while and this helped my mind to get back on track for doing a decent and properly working city, ty

[@tonechild5929]

I like how you draw exactly where you want the road to go even if there will be a conflict, and then adjust the conflicting roads to accomidate the new road. This is really great for the over-all shape of the grid! I've always avoided the conflicting roads and wind around them, treating exiting roads as immutable and having an extra wonkjy grid. CS 2 road tools help a lot too, but thanks I learned something

[@Stod1988]

Just a easy tips here at 48:55 Build the row home on the corner of the street instead of filling the middle and coming back for the corner. Since you have demands its gonna build right away facing the street you want them to build and you'll be fine to just zone the whole street without having to come back later to fill up the remaining row home zoning on the street corner that you left. Hope that was well explained.

[@Tiki832]

Thanks for doing this series, was greatly needed as a lot of the older series approaches simply don't work nowadays since the economy update so it's nice to see things being approached from the ground-up rather than just resuming a already thriving old city that was founded on now impossible foundations and just tweaking it. :)

[@inklink8471]

I just started my 2 week Cities Skylines addiction and found myself looking into getting CS2, so the release of this video is honestly peak timing. Looking forward to finding my way into CS2 through these videos :)!

[@SageSundae]

Love to see the return of this series post Eco 2.0. I like that you remind folks in this video that real cities have imperfect curves/lanes. A little imperfection adds to realism.

[@Banthah]

I don't think this is the best Cities Skylines 2 video I've ever seen. I think this is the best video I've ever seen! Superb!

[@wolfydude12]

I'd love if you had a road building masterclass video. How to determine what the street to call main street is, how to make couplets work; approprate highway links and spacing, and how to realistically transition between them. I think traffic is sometimes the hardest part to understand sometimes. Being able to create an effective road network would bring a lot of value to a lot of players.

This is the most useful Cities Skylines 2 video out there. None can top it. Thank you for being extremely thorough, you've got a skill for teaching. I absolutely cannot wait to see this series come together!

[@NoDecaf7]

So I built alongside you and a little beyond. I struggle with the way the residential zoning works, like the menu itself. I regularly got EU and US mixed up and at one point accidentally placed med density Apts instead of row housing. The icons just aren't distinct enough, the colors all bleed together and I can't quickly distinguish US from EU properties. It also took me a bit to get into the green but it was so rewarding when I finally did, especially after seeing people freak out about the econ update.

[@lisamagnussonbiel5695]

Hey! I was just trying to follow your last UBG playlist and ran into issues when you were saying: "let's just buy all these tiles". This is perfect! I did eventually figure out my own city after some trial and error with the sliders but it's still nice to follow along with a more experienced player while I get used to all the mechanics.

[@rudolphantler6309]

Can you answer some questions? 01. WITHOUT MODS, can pedestrians actually walk on Alleys and on Gravel Roads? Didn't have time to observe. Under what circumstance do they walk on Highways? 02. What are the criteria that enables a non-service or non-delivery car to drive on a Pedestrian Street? And does the relative close proximity of a cop car have an effect on this? 03. Is there a direct connection to the number and types of out-of-city connections with the number of people potentially moving in and visiting my city? 04. Is there some added technical first responder difficulty layer if an accident is in a tunnel? 05. Does Noise and Air Pollution only bother Residential or does it also have an effect on Commercial and Office? 06. Is there like a general engineering rule or advice about how many 2-way highways are too many to avoid making your intersection a sort of (possibly "turbo") roundabout? How much is too much not to use a roundabout? 07. Do all taxi stops get supplied with taxis from all the taxi depots on the map? And do they get some sort of smart distribution between the stations from all depots? 08. Can you supply me with some semi-large chart of tested numbers about which ?x? sized Residentials, or Commercial, or Office, or Industrial fit under what type of bridges (road,train,subway,...) of what elevation height (or how much relative height difference)? 09. Do you know all the zoning sizes for Waterfront Housing? 10. If when starting a new map it doesn't have snow but is indicated the lowest temperature can be below zero can snow occur? And where? On high mountains only? How do I know it will happen without speeding time through a year?

[@jackcobalt2005]

I've recently returned to Cities 2.. And I must say It looks incredible easy using the grid tool (I almost never use it) and since I like symetrical aesthetics this is making me feel good. Cuz even at curve intersections it keeps the near perfect symmetrical aesthetic!!

[@nirmal495]

I'd like to learn how to manage traffic in densely populated urban areas, especially for a few blocks. Traffic is easy to control at the start, but it quickly becomes a problem once there are many people around

[@RachelJade70]

Just a note for people starting on a different map: by default, the starting area on maps is 3x3 tiles. But this map has a starting area that is 7x7 tiles. So if you're confused on why you can't get a full community plus industrial areas in your starter area, that's why. :)

Game's tutorial annoyed the CRAP out of me and had me in the red in no time, so I looked YOU up and hadn't been 10 mins into the video and already learned like 4 things I didn't know yet. Just got the surface area tool tip and BRO, alright. GLAD I CAME BACK.

[@spacepunchgaming6732]

I got so intimitated at the fact that you laid out SOOOOOO MANY streets in the beginning, i didnt think of laying down roads so far ahead

Thank you for this , i was trying to get back to the game and this helped me a bit , still feel like i have a lot to learn , for now i just copy paste your city and i am actually mirroring this , yes some parts of the grid and intersections look different but it helped me understand and appreciate my city , till i will start my own later on.

[@TheAtomicANetwork]

i noticed in this game, rowhouses make the most money early game. As soon as you unlock rowhouses, USE THEM! and you are in the green in no-time! Also.... the upkeep costs are annoying. Bc u pay the upkeep, but also employee wages. But before you place down the building, you have no idea how many employees such building has.

[@benwooding1311]

I decided to play along. Something I've wanted to do with a content producer's game series for a long time, but never committed to. This 1 hour video took me about 4 hours to watch, with many re-winds to figure out what I'd missed. For example, right when you said we're in the green, I was so close to running out of money and I was still deep in the red. I very narrowly avoided disaster by rewinding and finding the part where you adjusted the taxes. It didn't take me long to realize I was never going to match your angles and road placement exactly, so my city doesn't look quite like yours. Close, but not quite. Especially where the grids mesh together, there's a lot more jank in mine.

[@SunnyScunny]

That is a great map choice, I enjoy building on this one too. I'm really looking forward to this series! 6:48 - While Ore deposits do not deplete, Oil wells will run dry. However, specialised industry areas function not only as extractors but also as processors. They will import resources once natural supplies have been exhausted.

[@krisculin9679]

It's great to see the reboot after the Econ 2.0 patch came out. Hopefully you'll touch on traffic in a future episode as that is usually where I get nailed. I can get my city going and the budget balanced and then I'm nailed by that pesky traffic. I can usually trace this back to a single connection to the highway and a single entrance into the main part of the city (I tend to use custom maps). So, I look forward to seeing how you deal with that in this city. Once again, a very informative and fun video which is one of your mainstays. Thanks, CPP!

[@shaneintheuk2026]

9:20 the thing about grids is that many European cities developed out of small towns so the roads between settlements would take the shortest route. As later expansion over took these roads they were not demolished so you get extremely broken grids aligning to the ancient routes.

[@burlygaming210]

Hey there! Just watched your awesome video! Can't wait to see more guides for this game from you. Hoping your next video guide will cover budget systems. I've found a cool strategy to make lots of money early on by tweaking taxes and cutting back on services. Even before hitting level 3, I've been able to rake in up to 4k profit. Once at level 4, I've hit 20k+ through parking, parks, and mostly taxes. And guess what? City growth stays pretty steady at level 4 happiness, and honestly, maintaining level 5 happiness doesn't seem to make a huge difference in growth. Thanks for sharing the tips!

[@grayone9sargent257]

Thanks to you, I just made my first successful city since the radical update! Sooooooo very nice!

I don't comment much but I have to tell you I was about to quit this game. Then I watch your video and now my cities are successful with my bank at 15 million and 50k citizens and that's only with your first 2 videos. I love how you do the build, the way you talk is like you are the bob Ross of cities skylines. May you live forever ❤️

I have been smashing my head against 2.0 so glad you put this out!

[@Spacesnakes474]

I like consistent, organized grids for downtown areas, less consistent but still square grids for industrial areas, and curvy rabdom shapes for low density suburbs. To me it has some of the most realistic feel I can achieve (even if it sometimes causes traffic issues haha)

[@simonwahlstrom1296]

Absolutely fantastic tutorial! Also very nice to see how far CSL2 has come from release.

[@lemax7769]

Great guide. You clearly make the best videos. Maybe a good hint for new players: As soon as budgets are available raise electricity fee to 112% and water to 108%. They dont complain but Your wind turbines will soon bring money instead of costs. Also activate road side parking fees for districts as soon as possible.

[@knoedelchen3316]

Yes! Thank you very much. I struggle so much in this game. Not because of Economics 2.0 but because I always hate how my cities look at approximate 7k inhabitants.
