Serious question. Do amerifats think they're funny spelling europeans with a y? Because it's just annoying and further enforces our opinion that you're all illiterate rednecks.
And I'm not triggered by gridded cities, I just think it's funny. Because NYC's traffic is SO efficient, right?

Clearly has never lived in the midwest, because he doesn't understand that Terre Haute =/=Chicago =/= Detroit.

Your grid cities are hideous. Your skyscrapers and high rises are vomit inducing. Also why are there highways running through them? Disgusting!
I pity you.
>>67305238
>>67305280
Just think, that entire area was virtually uninhabited at the beginning of the 19th century.
>>67305823
We often consider ourselves closer to the East Coast than the Midwest, maybe to distract ourselves from the thought.
>>67305825

The Far North Side is bretty gud, but the areas immediately around the Loop are too gentrified.
>>67305520

>>67305952
>and not cars
Excuse u Hungarybro, the Grid System here dates nationwide to the late 18th century and in Chicago to the 1820s, the better part of a century before the automobile. I agree with you on the highways, although neighborhoods are pretty good around here.
>>67305952
I've seen better pics of Budapest than this. That one makes Chicago look comfier.
>>67305960
But when taking Metra downtown/back after dark you need to pay attention to which station you are at. The near west side outside the loop is favela-tier.

Yeah; perhaps we're just the boomtown that's never really settled down with the crime, and being the transportation hub of the US does attract much drug stuff, although Al Capone and today's Black gangs are a bit different.

Chicago, being relatively inland, is the coldest major city in the US in the winter and the hottest in the North in the summer. That being said, I think Edmonton and Winnipeg in Canada are still colder.

Chicago can get pretty cold but it won't last long. Also it snows a lot due to the lake effect. But again the snow will melt pretty quick. Sometimes it looks like this after a heavy snowfall. Yet the climate in general is very mild. Chicago weather is weird.

Come on. I've lived there and understand, but we have to stop with the "95% humidity" meme. When it's 95 degrees in the midwest the humidity is never above 50%. Ever, ever. Even in the middle of a cornfield.
It sucks ass, it's nasty and miserable, and it's the reason we have air conditioning everywhere --- but it's not at that level.
>>67307353
Yes. But unfortunately atleast I eventually drift my thoughts back to the earthly worries. I know its how we people function, but i just dont want to. Also good night, its 2.49 o'clockhere in Finland. Hope you people have good day!
>>67307440
Probably to facilitate irrigators, but IDK
>>67307442
It happens. I go running a lot so I keep track of the weather during the summer to know what to wear and how much water to drink (sweat so much more when it's humid).
>>67307089

Yeah sure, but that only happens on foggy August mornings when it's 68F outside.
I'm just saying the "95F / 95% humidity" thing doesn't happen anywhere in the US. It may feel like it, but it's not reality.

They have added a whole lot, especially with having much more control over your cities and where things get built and all that without fudging up the game format.

Barcelona looks like one of those cities that seem worse from the air than they really are.
>>67317281
Indeed. Many of the buildings, from above, can be ugly.
I guess they were not intended to be "contemplated from such perspective".
From the street, you have variety. If you have a walk around, some areas are very nice, but the older-poorer neighbourhoods are not so comfy (consider that many parts of outer Barcelona were separate towns in the past).
Same for the inside. Well-preserved old houses/flats of the richer neighbourhoods are bretty good.
>>67305029
Why would this trigger Europeans? It's good urban planning of modern cities triggering to anyone? Barcelona is mostly grid based too, and it's great. As far as infrastructure goes you should borrow roundabouts and yield signs from us. 4-way stop system is just retarded, slow and inefficient.
