They need a city building game where your citizens revolt against you.
>>387783372
literally Russia
>>387783519
its called tropico anon
I installed Cities last night, managed to get to 4k people in first run before everything started to look like shit
Any protips for this game?
>want to download again
>know I'm going to just get bored after making one city and uninstall
its not that big though, maybe an hour to download. should i do it?
>>387783564
spaghetti roads looks nice though
is this all vanilla or do you need mods for the commie blocks and statues?
>>387783628
I wish mine looked like that
How do you place commercial areas (blue ones), near the green ones or it doesn't matter?
>>387783742
I usually put them across the interchange
Nearer would be better but causes more traffic.
>>387783628
>>387783829
how do you plan roads like that, do you draw them on paper or something before making them? Because when i start building shit i usually end up as total mess
>>387783571
I think it's about 12GB.

Just practice, you'll make pretty shitty cities the first time.
I usually end up making a bunch of shitty cities that look like ass and just restart
>>387784005
Keep your internal cargo rail network entirely separate from your external one.
>>387784071

KEK

How do you earn money in this game?
Through taxes?
Any protip for money?
>>387784483
Just take it slowly. I think the game has some kind of mechanic where your budget will always creep into the positive.
>>387784071
What colour correction are you using?
>>387784604
One of these
>>387771753 (Natural Color)
>>387771753 (Satellite)
>>387771753 (Realistic)
>>387771753 (Easy on Eye)
is the traffic system in this game that bad where you have to build massive interchanges every 5 miles?
>>387784727
yes
>>387784546
how do you switch to more efficient system as you get more upgrades, for example sewage system and shit like that?
No, England is my city
>>387783223
Looks like Warsaw, depressing as fuck
>>387785261
If the town I live in is any indicator, you just build the newer parts of town with the new stuff and ignore all the old parts of town forever.
Now with proper matching commie blocks!

you can put low density commercial wherever you like
put high density commercial in the same placement you would industry, with the addendum of not placing it on the opposite side of your city as your industry unless there's a straight line of highway between them
I've fucked up a bit of this but nothing big enough that I'm worried about it
So far I've stuck with green energy also
Know how I haven't fucked up though?
Using curves. Curved roads are a mistake.
downtown
>>387787818
always mall nearby, never boring
>>387787868
nice big road
>>387787709
>>387787764
how many people there are in this city
>>387787868
> mall looks exactly the same as all the other buildings
What a dreary communist hellhole you conjured, OP. And the traffic is retarded, what's your tax policy?

Could be worse
Is it worth buying for 7 in europoor money?
>>387790087
79% before 10k is pretty bad
>>387783121
do I need to say something nice to it?
There has been so many threads lately.
I may start a new city with mods, mostly played relatively vanilla so far. Hopefully my computer can handle it.
>>387792656
all me
>>387792849
It's impressive that so many of them survive too.
Could you be a Paradox shill trying to create more interest in the new DLC?
Waiting for it to be on sale to buy Mass Transit, most of the new transport options seem gimmicky, boats are cool though. But weren't they like really restricted so services couldn't use them, making them useless for connecting islands? Not so good. Think there was some new road options too but I can do fine without them.
>>387793097
No I just want to see shitty cities they used to die really quickly.

You can use the DLC reddit hack for free DLC.
Mass Transit looks worth buying but I still feel ripped off for After Dark.
I make maybe 2 cities per year in that game.
But when I gather enough autism to do so, I put some effort into it. to atleast build it with some style to it.
>>387793292
You need to buy the DLCs on sale, then they are cheaper than a trip to McDonalds. Just imagine you bought a bad hamburger.
I enjoy the bus lanes, and haven't tried to use the bike system much yet, but I use After Dark less than I expected desu. But still don't really regret it.
I think actually Snowfall may have had a bigger impact on my gameplay, the trams are super nice.
>>387793097
>>Could you be a Paradox shill trying to create more interest in the new DLC?
I guess threads are a bit more populated since it's on sale.
People also wonder which of the DLCs are mandatory
Thanks but Ill keep mine.
>>387783121
So many city builder theards the last few days. Its getting pretty comfy here on /v/.
>>387793292

What map should I use.
Why do the map makers have bad taste
I don't want something super flat, and I want islands and maybe a limited number of roads.
