Cities:Skylines

[Caliga]

I decided to try to make a third world tropical hellhole of a city.

I have an industrial sector along a river with dirt roads, open sewers, a coal plant, and a landfill and slums packed in right next to it.  A long ways away, up a hill, is a nice residential zone.

My first city sucked balls, full of mistaken road networks, bad traffic and bad zoning.  My next city will be a paradise.

One thing I would like to see more of in the future is water based industries.  Fishing fleets, piers & docks, houseboats, ferries and effects from water pollution.

First thoughts:

- it's beautiful, and fun, but a bit too easy (if one's not minmaxing every single stat in the game). In SimCity 4 I struggled several times to start my cities, every single addition to the city had to be carefully weighted, because the balance was extremely sensitive; here, in my first try my city is around 11,000, and although not rolling in money, my balance is around $ 400,000 positive. More than what I'm needing, except that I want to make a total redesign of the city.
- graphically it's very nice, my only gripe is that the transition between low and high density buildings is a bit abrupt;

and now some eye candy:




Needs more 3D models

My entire city. See how my city is backing up an highway exit

I downloaded a map based on the valley of Innsbruck and started fresh. The highway connection is on the short corner of the starting square, though, but I've expanded to the far side of the river.

I can't see your pics

Last I read they're at 500k.

Wow, even CK2 has only sold 1.1 million base copies.

Paradox is going to become a big publisher despite itself.

This looks like something my son would like. Yeah,  my son.

Updates from my city.


Streetside parking is popular!


From the roofs: garbage containers and parks.


Several small high density buildings next to each other make this look like one designer building.


An overview.


And from the other side.


Dirt roads in the Walnut District.

What is this dystopian future where everyone drives fluorescent shaded cars? 

[Solmyr]

Do you guys rezone your low-density residential areas to high-density once you are able to, or do you build an entirely new high-density residential zone?

[FunkMonk]

I just zone new neighborhoods specifically for high residential and high commercial. I think it gives the city more personality to have radically different looking districts.

My city as of last night.

Those are some twisty roads!
