Hey Biffa, I think I speak for everybody here if we say we are totally fine with you installing a mod to get more tiles to keep the series going!

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

We shall see what transpires next 😉👍

[@apexbaines9014]

CS2!… everything must come to an end one day 😢

[@ic_trab]

Technically you can get 25 tiles on remastered on console, so 25 tiles mod instead of 81 tiles?

[@barthsarafinprod]

Hey, Biffa, I agree here 100% - please do! I love this series - the rest is entertaining too, but this hits different. Pleeeeeeeeeease!

[@AdamHinckley]

I would love to see this going, even with 82 tile mod

[@mjsaviation7497]

Just allow yourself to unlock more tiles Then the vanilla challange becomes appararant

[@Hyper_nova]

I think 25 tile mod would be fair, once you’ve used a reasonable amount of the 9. That brings it inline with the newer console version. And keeps you in the intended build area for the map. 81 tiles feels like it’s too modded. But as long as the spirit of vanilla is maintained ie no mechanic altering mods such as TMPE, anarchy or move it.

[@akuthia]

Biffa: Let's give everyone some lovely beach front property Also biffa: and here's your very scenic mass power tower lines to rest under for shade while you're on the beach...

[@graemekilpatrick5105]

Once you start running out of room...or even before...you should go through a Redevelopment process. All cities go through periods of Redevelopment. I would imagine the trolley bus hub in the original area would get some attention and a big shopping centre built up around it. There would be more high rises especially around the coast. You could turn the limitations into a new challenge.

[@UV1K787]

Hey, I think you should use mods to unlock new tiles just to keep the series going.

[@toddalexander5015]

I think this series proves why the mods are so essential. Limiting yourself to just 9 squares means the "game" part is over way before you're truly done playing

[@dlkjAENFadlkfj]

Despite however many comments there are already on this, I figured to just chip in myself and say that yes, it'd be fine if you were to use a mod to increase the limit on tiles. Still keep everything vanilla in terms of building and how you accomplish things, but more space (that should've been there to begin with) is allowed I'd say!

[@patonb]

It always got me as weird when a Cim would drive the entire map to go to work or shop. SimCity use to have the Time to get to work as a requirement. Basically Sims would only travel so long to get places. I think both distance and traffic were taken into consideration.

[@macaidwin]

Hello Biffa, a while ago I ran into a same situation where my resident demand stayed down. By searching on the Internet, I found out that this can happen when you overbuild the commercial in your city. I eventually fixed it by removing some commercial, maybe this explains why adding office, industrial ánd commercial did not help. Maybe start removing just all commercial in the temporary area, to see if this changes everything.

[@thadizzie1]

Great video. I do hope you add the mod to get at least 25 tiles. I know times running short w CS2 just arround the corner but like new tealand, hugoslovia needs a proper finish so i hope we get a cple more episodes before the full CS2 takeover

[@erika-zn8oi]

can we have a area with the brooklyn and queens buildings

[@davidroddini1512]

Personally, I’d have changed the new highway interchange to an inverted SPUI. The highway ramps would come up from the median of the highway to a standard intersection on the crossing street. That means no land adjacent to the highway is needed for ramps and more can be used for the neighborhood.

[@filiphak6868]

"The area I don't care about!/ I don't care-ville" 😂 Love the video. Keep up the great work! ❤

[@fukurowe]

Just a suggestion but I would love to see if you could create a small town like a small village or a countryside in this series!!

[@HellenixSWGoH]

Biffa! My Suggestion is: Buy the tile with the small island (on the opposite end of the map from where you bought the tile at the start of this episode; where you suggested building an airport of some kind). You can then terraform the land, adding soil to this new area, so as to build an airport as you'd suggested, using the airport area feature (as opposed to the premade small ones). Beings you're playing vanilla/un-modded in this series, you can extract soil from the hill in the newest area you just purchased (around those ruins), should you run out of soil and need more. Keep this series going as long as possible, my tea sipping friend! ☝️🤠🇺🇸

[@piervail]

Hello Biffa. I like this new extention. And I tihink you should check for police fire and medical needs (my note is about 20:20). People needs to live in a safe place with easy access to healthcare as well as schools and transports facilities. I know it's a lot to think of. Imagine what it would be in CS2. It should be one of the first things you should think of! Fire, police, medics and schools.

[@Sharky_On_The_Road]

Great video Biffa. Still can`t wait for Skylines 2. More tiles and bigger useable maps. Vennela with only 9 tiles is still big but not with all the DLCs. and assets. and I think the citizen cap is about 450,000. with no mods.

[@mies1mies]

i like the area i don't care about

[@bleedingrevenge12]

I think it's an interesting idea to take the city as far as you can vanilla, then start adding mods to showcase what cool and powerful things they can accomplish. You could even leave the legacy city untouched and just add new modded neighborhoods and districts and compare them on the same map.

[@DoofusScorpio]

Just use the 25 tiles mod. That'll bring you equivalent to the remastered edition, which is still vanilla as far as I can see.

[@edwardmiessner6502]

Okay Biffa, what shall we do with Hugoslavia? I suggest: Extending the metro to Idon'tcareville and that other dense city area along the shore that has no metro. Install the 81 tiles mod and then you can build small country towns with farming and forestry industries.

[@sirshaked]

Simply excellent video! Please don't stop living with this series ;)

[@tonyschulz3558]

2:44 just thinking out loud here, but thinking about tile space, if you bought the tile with the little island, bottom right, you could build your international airport there, linking by rail, ferry and road for both passengers and freight into and out of the city

[@georgethomas7814]

You should put some time into fixing I Don't Careville. Try to be a good Mayor to your last Vanilla City. Rejuvenate all your industrial areas so that they become Eco-Friendly. Finally when it all looks good. Put all your modes on and show us what a difference they can make.

[@carriegarrisonvos4433]

Better to do the mod for more tiles. 9 was never enough!!! Looking good and got my giggle of I don't careville 😂 Airport on the water sounds great!!

[@lordraven2264]

Vanilla builds, we! Lol, I started one up recently. I only got 10 minutes into playing before I had to add traffic manager. I"m spoiled, I know, hehe. Love the build Biffa.

[@PhilSrobeighn]

Keep I Don't Care Ville! It's behind the mountain anyway. The airport island seems like it would be a nice addition as you close out CS1

[@annorton5825]

What what are my new jobs are doing is maxify the normal tiles and then using the 81 tiles mod just use the 81 tiles all my new tubers are doing it for the vanilla one no just be easy once you maximise that space but you have left😊

[@patrick1227]

I agree with most. Unlock tiles should not even be a mod--should just be part of the game. Unlock 'em all. Let's build a HUGE HUGOSALVIA!

[@T1tan466]

Hey Biffa, use the 25 tile mod and just say it’s the remastered version instead

[@Francois424]

I say get the 25 tiles mod (or use the 81-tiles and don't exceed 25, which is more than enough for a good long while) You can get TM:PE and move it too if you want. Those are basic mods nowadays, I dont even consider my game modded with these =) Edit: "Watch it" too. so you can see right away problems with the town. I've been using it for a VERY long time, I even forgot it was not part of the game Oo; Edit 2 : "I don't care ville" -- there's some ressources below it. I'd say turn it into an ore/oil park for half of it, and put lots of trees for the other half. Get some Dual purpose Cargotrain/airport to minimise export/import traffic. That is, if you keep playing CS:1 afterall ! Thanks for the awesome vid !

[@LiamDennehy]

The main road going through Ratterman Park is a bit Stroad-y. I prefer to keep the grid for the side roads, but skip every other intersection with the main road just to keep traffic flowing.

[@andromidius]

Honestly, the 81 tile mod is pretty much Vanilla at this stage. You still have to deal with traffic issues, which is the main challenge of Vanilla.

[@TastierBackInThe80s]

I Dont Careville, could be smaller regional airport and flying club like you did in a previous build. Nice work Biff.

[@finonfire]

yup go ahead and get more tiles! also i think you should build out "I don't careville"

[@DanimalUpchurch]

I happened to start new map then realized you started same map. So here i am building along, with some minor changes. In xbox-xs remastered. Really hoping you go with 25 tiles. Then fill it by October 25th

[@_Asha_man]

Since you are one of my favorite Creator, I'll support this channel even if you do SimCity4 reviews from now on hahahah but CSL Vanilla play is Torture!!! Is the vanilla game in CLS2 also that frustrating? Can you detail a city in CSL2, with a "anarchy mode" in the game?

[@christopherjunkins]

I'd just look at keeping I don't care-ville, but rejigger it to look and work better. Then there's the airport that's going to be fun :)

[@terencyowens9491]

Keep I don't Careville. Just have it as the part of map that you could say it's the 'wrong side of the tracks'. And, for giggles, dump as much high density residential buildings into that area. As, for the airport tile... How about using it as a multi modal cargo and passenger hub.

[@FabledX_UK]

I don't mind mods (as long as you list the mods you use, as I like to play along while listening to your videos).

[@chakalaka831wat]

Airport is awesome idea but you should have used policies to decrease tax to that unique area. You could raise the overall tax but the policie for lower residential tax would make people prefer that place over another, instead of getting less money overall

[@samenshahriar6249]

The people have decided. We want 25 tiles city.

[@coffeeAddict74]

The nine tile limit in the game is a little annoying. At least if we weren’t restricted to unlocking an adjacent tile. The maps are huge and it would be nice to be able to unlock tiles that add interest but aren’t necessarily adjacent. I hope this mechanic is better realized in CS2

[@lPaused]

You can unlock 25 tiles on vanilla on console now! So you should absolutely continue 😊

[@gregbuhr5464]

Fun video. How are you going to resolve the traffic issue? Please keep building C:S-1 as I won't be moving on to C:S-2 for a while and need all the ideas I can get. Go for the airport. The "Old Geezer" loves this video 😎👍

[@GMBlunderfish1]

Hit 8k on LD in one tile, then go on HD change for the redevelopment. I tend to hit >30k on 1 tile, sometimes even 40000

[@mattloynes4810]

Biffa 9 tiles is no longer Vanilla, if your looking at the newer console version 25 tiles can be unlocked. So no cheat, just a stretch to build the dream Hugoslavia

[@quoniam426]

Love your added special effects...

[@uffeibsen8872]

[@iOS6Fan1]

You had an industrial resource very close to the I don't care area that would satisfy any industrial demand

[@DarkPegasus8774]

Hey bifur if you use the modern City content creator style buildings DLC district you can actually make some really interesting beach fronts with that with some high density 😱

[@EroDhika]

you need an independent electricity source for the island, and make the beach there to be a tourism or something.

[@MicFt7]

I can't stand that yellow metro line in the double station uses only one track in both directions... Biffa! FIX IT!!! :D I Don't Care Ville have some resources nearby oil or ore - you could build some of that there.

[@Pimmie0132]

25 tiles would be great to keep the series going just before cs2 if not we do not care ville can be removed bit if you add the mod it can stay

[@923Be]

Biffa paying the price for ignoring his industrial demand this whole series.

[@doesitmatter3642]

How about connecting Thundberg District with a ferry line? Maybe add a couple hotels and some tourism :)

[@Cowtipper4957]

Playing Vanilla CS1 on console has had my last few cities progress WAYYY too fast while only being limited to 9 tiles that MUST connect to one another. It's so rough, especially if the outside connections are in multiple different tiles that aren't next to each other. I might play CS1: Remastered once all the DLC is available for a little bit before going over to CS2, but idk for sure.

[@mellowourld7608]

wonder if cs2 will have pefer livel on different types of bike lanes base off of the safty of them.

[@michaelg7022]

Cookie cutter suburbs! I wouldn't move on either. Forced residential, nothing fun. Mundane. Yawntown. Just my opinion! Love the videos! Thanks for the upload.

[@semanticcrow]

Biff I've been reviewing the footage and you seem to connect the new residential area with the old one when you're marking out the zones at the very beginning. Could this be the reason residential demand was so low? Essentially the new area had all the residential building it needed because you'd connected it to the previous one. Just a thought

[@TheCasualLegoHorse123]

Could you please show us when cities skylines comes out all the sports venues and also could you try making a horse racing track in blighty on the wold that would be very cool to see you make

[@everettlong1086]

Hello, I have a question for you. I have watched a bunch of your videos on dealing with traffic, but I have yet seen where you do what I do to get rid of like 40% of the traffic! What I do is only have 1 cargo hub that lets in inports only and will have several that allow exports only. On the inport hub I put an 1 way heading out and on the exports I put in 1 ways headed in. This way when a car/truck drops off they despawn. I was just wondering if this was a mistake or a good way to deal with all the traffic? Thanks if you reply! Merlin

[@donovankloster1072]

Hi Biffa I can't wait until your city skylines 2 gameplay next week

[@WeyounSix]

"Even though we lowered the tax rate, we're still making money." -What literally every citizen wants to hear lmao

[@KingDavidCreates]

I think the problem isn't the amount of tiles themselves, but the "layout" of them like... Yes you can really screw yourself in terms of Buildable area and population by buying suboptimal tiles that are like 80% Water. Honestly it's why when I heard tiles would be smaller in CS:2 I was actually quite excited since it seems you won't necessarily have the same wasted space. Anyway if you do go for modding in more tiles I'd say go for 25. Since that's the amount Next-Gen Consoles "Remastered" versions have so it's still... kinda Vanilla. I feel like 81 pushes it too far into modded territory since that is exclusively a PC Modding thing.

[@amrraafat5765]

For that area, make it a tourism area. Also, I have a question, are you going to abandon cities skylines 1 when you start cs2?? Love your content ❤❤

[@FARBerserker]

if you do not install a mod for more tiles, the little corner just won't really work for you where you plan to do the airport. because you will want to change that interchanfge into a 4 way and it is just ever so slightly out of bounds of the tile you bought there so you could not access it properly to make it work. And don't do the airport on the little island please. Put a small little resort area there instead. Or fishing industry maybe. You also have not done much with the industires at all in this one as far as i can tell.

[@the_samsam]

Biffa, could I ask how your game stays at a stable fps? I got a 4070ti with a Ryzen 9 3900X and my game start dropping to 30 fps and lower after my city reaches ~10k size. I upgraded from a 2080 super thinking it would preform better but it's hardly noticeable.
