I think a huge tourist entertainment complex would make sense in that area. Itâs right beside a highway entrance, thereâs the railway line for a station, off which you could maybe have some monorail? That could pass a stadium and other sports things, along hotels & shops then into a water side amusement park!
It could be a real cool place đđ
Hi Biffa, you could build a dedicated bike bridge along the other bridge so that people can cross the river without taking the ferry. I really like your videos. Please continue like that.
That's the plan!
@@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines you could also go into the asset creator and make your own road with all the requirements you need from it
â@@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines there is a lot of people complaining about garbage đď¸đŽ problem
@@teagancollyer .. and use the Blank Road Builder mod again.
@@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines Don't forget that unless you've enacted a "no bicycles on sidewalks/pavements" policy, bicycles will go on them as well as use dedicated lanes if you have them. So not having bicycle lanes doesn't mean "no bicycle travel option this way", just kind of a higher cost for them to use that route. Bicycle lanes just mean the further faster using that mode than others, making travel that way more appealing, so will relieve a little pressure on transit and/or a little pressure on motor vehicle lanes.
Its just a suggestion but with that type of terrain, maybe you better utilize ferry as a "bridge" to connect each island, and try centralize mass transportation to ferry.
2:33 Yes, I would absolutely expect to be able to walk and bike over the river
Biffa, I think you should choose the square by Cherry Centre, so you can sort out the railway and highway interchange. You'd then have more space and could move the tram depot across the river (removing the need to have trams on that bridge).
Or have two separate tram systems on either side of the strait
Iâm pretty sure âJumpy gameâ is one of Biffaâs many trademark phrasesđ
đ¤Ł
I have a cool idea!! At 31:14 you talk about putting something in amongst the trees, how about a dozen or so HUGE mansion size properties with lots of land each, hidden deep within the trees, with their own long winding private road each coming off an exclusive main road along the forest border, each property could be very unique with design, pools, tennis courts, barns or stables etc! I don't think you have ever done something like that before, just use a huge bit of land for a few super rich đ it could be super creative!
Had you put the noise blocking fance next to the road instead of next to the houses, the people from the houses could have easy access to the wood for recreation :)
Nothing beats watching biffa detail an industrial area
9:20 Can you put the tram depot on the other side of the road and curve the road down around it? It would straighten up and get rid of the sharp S bend in the road off the main junction.
Detailing wise, A tram shed beside a river would have its own dock for easy transport of tools, parts and machines and obviously a carpark for employees. đ
2:20 in fact there is a road with bike lanes, 2 lanes for cars traffic and shared lane for buses and trams (on the outer side of the road)
For me it would be great to utilize the square with a little bit of highway road (where you wanted to connect train lines) and put there a nice Hot Cup of Tea (hot springs) if possible. Beginning of the river could be changed to a little lake (like a Blue Lagoon). It would also open a possibility (later on) to have a small fairy connection down the big river. But it would require small, rustic boats to look good (not sure if they are available).
Love seeing some detailing work, that was incredibly satisfying :) The area you pointed out looks really pretty, I think some sort of park would look great in the middle of (possibly) a second city centre.
Thank you! Cheers!
I kind of agree on centralizing the ferry's as transport, and maybe even taking out the bridge you built to reduce that road congestion, now that you have ferry and metro so well setup that they can take the highway between. You'd have to put the tram depot back on the other side for that, but definitly still an option.
Opening up the map with new squares if you really want that corner for smoothing out the train/road traffic on that corner you could go there and then jump another square north into my territory, would get you close to the harbor, which I've read was a potential traffic jam issue later in the game(my apologies for that).
Though I'd like to see quirky's island in regards to maybe some kind of park feature area's to come up, when cities start getting this big I always feel nice park feature area's become more important.
That's my 2 cents. Have fun
Again saying that I think the area you started over the last episodes as high density would have (and possibly still could be) been the perfect place to build your main airport of biffalo county, as its centrally localted on the map and possibly the biggest piece of already flat land. Even after this episode, I think there might still be enough open space left to accomodate an airport (when looking at the area with video stopped at 31:10 there could easily one runway along the coastline paralell to the existing road and a second runway going from the new interchange diagonal towards the river delta - of course that road extension you build this episode would have to be demolished again).
That set of ferry lines could do with a smaller inner loop to help folk make shorter connections.
Something like 1-3 stops in the center for people who need to go just across the river to stop them from having to ride all the way around the wings.
Around 09:15 I suggest to add slip lanes for the right traffic, so the actual intersection only has to deal with left and straight traffic. So you can keep the smaller four lane road as well.
I have to agree, making all the other traffic in the intersection wait for that right turn traffic seems counter intuitive, personally I would make an underpass along the coast UNDER the bridge to get into town and avoid the intersection entirely as well but I am not certain what the AI would do with that choice. Treating the 6 lane like it is a highway and adding an interchange rather than an intersection is maybe even better as it is the only utilized connection across the river currently.
seeing you detailing the industrial area was probably the most satisfying moment in the series. Great work, it looks so damn great
Thank you Tybalt :-)
I would love to see you do a nice, upscale neighborhood with an interesting road layout. Big houses with big yards, maybe even make it a gated community with a great view and private water access. Keep up the great work. I can watch you detail all day.
2:30. We have a bike lane over the Sydney Harbour Bridge, it connects to a bike path that's over 40 kilometres. You are expected to ride very far. đ¤Ł
More bike paths are constantly being constructed but Australia is very hilly around its coasts, where the population lives. It's not fun riding 40 KMs up hills in 40°c heat. đ¤Ł
As a cyclist I'd definitely bike from island to island! I've been wanting a road that was one or two car lanes, a tram lane and a bike lane for so long now.
Regardless of what you do, I think the empty area next to the Autumn District will need another highway connection. So you should probably add that in before you fill it up with buildings.
I like the piece of land you wanted to get so you could connect the trains. Enough buildable land there I think! And on the new section with the mountains, maybe some ritzy mountain homes đ See enough of those here even if there are not ski resorts. I live in an area like that in NC but we have 2 ski resorts.
I like the idea of a nice river-walk park or zoo along the (west?) water front. That will increase land value, siphon pedestrians off the road, and give more visual interest.
I like the idea of buying the square so you can fix your pinched connections. Maybe a nice terraced neighborhood would look good there.
Hi Biffa! For the zoo fence you placed to shield the houses from noise it would make more sense to me to place the fence next to the road the trucks are driving on. Now the children in the houses cannot easily walk into the forest anymore!
I would like to see a more rural area back along the hillside away from the waterfront. Something where the terrain would prevent a higher density utilization so we get a break from the big city vibes so to speak. Country estates perhaps? A castle even? And a fine residence for Mayor Biffa of course.
Fantastic video Biffa as always. I would love to see the eco houses that are in the new area closer to the coast with a branch road. Make it some kind of beach with leasure bussines and a wooden path next to the ferry station.
You should build a university campus amongst the trees further up the hill/mountain!
The forest of learning. ^^
Looks like your only university radius covers only a very small part of the city because itâs off by itself on the edge of development.
Centralizing it or having multiple smaller spread out would help your education levels a ton.
I have a question. Will Blightea-on-the-Wold ever be continued? It was actually my favourite series by you so it would be niced if it was finished
He is still doing Blightea-on-the-Wold. In his most recent he fixed that commercial district and large parking lot that was by the elevated rail. He's just not putting as many videos out per week, so it may seem like some time before he gets back to it, especially since he's doing 3 builds now: Blightea, New Tealand & Biffalo County.
Up next đ
The square where you can connect your train line is my vote.
Plenty of room for building and you need testing putting toads and structures in amongst hills Biffa.
I definitely say get that one square by the highway-not having the one tiny little corner has been driving me bonkers, and I know it's done the same to you! đ
Even though it's hilly, I think the prudent move would be to buy that square that allows you to work with your train lines.
I think that metro loop is a little strange. My idea is to replace the Pine Hills station with one of those criss-crossy metro stations from the plazas & promenades pack and have it go back and forth from there to the station across the river. Then the stations in the Autumn and the Eggleston Woodland districts could be rotated 90 degrees and be hooked up to the other platform at the Pine Hills station to form a separate line. This should let you easily extend the line into the new district that you are going to build.
a erea with europeing building highe rise
I think some hotel resorts and tourism areas along the seafront would be pretty cool
Be nice to have a big pedestrian zone with a lot of public transport. Will keep traffic down and add a different look to the waterfront
Okay, so I sunk into the C:S bog again and now have difficulty tearing myself from building cities. Of course, need to add cream to my tea, also back to bingewatching Biffa videos. Happy building together, everyone!
There's a bit of a sinkhole to the left of the harbor. You need to do a bit of smoothie-smoothie there and level out the land.
14:00 OMG!!! I never knew that mod did that!!! This changes how I do things in game now.
The Mercury trailers near the cargo area are supposed to face the other way so the trucks can pick them up. (24:30)
Beau(tea)ful additions!! Thanks for the vidya!
Infraspace has a setting where cars make round trips. That means more traffic management.
That area next to the small stream looks really pretty! I would suggest a tourist attraction centered around an historic village using Seaside Resorts. May I also suggest an old fashioned amusement park like Luna Park that Two Dollars Twenty built in Dundee in his Oceana Series?
Next square? Definitely on the east side of the strait where you want to put in a train connection. Right now the adjacent areas a crammed and feels like a bottle neck for anyone trying to get through.
31:11 I would like to see a business area with a skyscrapers there
Awesome video, would love to see a coastal themed university given a lot of beachfront areas. Also wondering if you could utilize the mountainous areas with small farms or homes, reminds me of homegrown vineyards or canyon homes in west coast California
2:11 I would absolutely expect to be able to bike across the bridge.
Yeah and I forgot to add the bike bridge đ
Don't forget to put a large park in the new area!
I think it would be nice to have the square to connect the railline like is said at 32:20, however all other options are probably better right now - for growing purposes. Also, how is Biffa's idea of 'a little bit of traffic' at 0:43 for me disaster traffic from hell? ngl, I'd panic and plonk road left right and center like spaghetti and start praying at that point đĽľđ
I think a theme park straddling that small river would work great.
May be a little late on finally catching up on Biffalo Countea but there's an industry demand so maybe look at resources over there and see what kind of special industries you could start up and really utilize that brand new harbor? Keep it up. Absolutely loving Biffalo and I think it's my favorite city so far!
Dutch "afsluitdijk" has biking on it.. at it's definatly not the shortest "bridge".
I catch the Rivercat to work every day from Rydalmere to Circular Quay in Sydney. beautiful way to commute
I love the industrial detailing! I never thought to give those areas attention but it looks amazing the way you've done it. đ
Thanks so much! đ
Hey Biffa, great video as usual. I think for the next square, you should unlock the one continuing on the shoreline from Washington.
So a quick look in the workshop and it seems there is a mod that allows you to export electricity. I think it might be cool to make a large green energy project (hydro, wind & solar) and export the electricity for profit. Maybe on the top part of the river area.
Love your videos they always go well with whatever im doing
Put the fence along the cargo road, stop the noise at source rather than blocking the householders views of the trees/shoreline.
Why do you have one big loop for the ferries instead of short pinging pack and forth across the water as ferries usually do?
đ¤ Good question!
Hi Biffa! @8:10 you have two nodes on top of each other, bottom of screen. Happy building!
I would purchase the square to the left of Cherry Square. It doesn't have a lot of trees or details but this would give you the rail link and has plenty of space for buildings even on the hills.
For the container stacking; maybe you could look at "Procedural Object" Mod. It may not let you stack the objects, but might be able to create two (or multi) story containers. This could also be used to change the Motorway signs in Blighty-on=the Wold.
I tried to âlikeâ twice. Great job with cargo containers!!!
Some tourism in that area might be nice and then maybe the land strip on the other side of the road towards the coast could be one of the park life areas - a zoo maybe? Keep up the great work đ
28:47 those are not sound barriers that is to keep people from running off the road
Just logged on to find this - Going to go down well with a bacon roll and a cuppa đ
24:15 you'll need a crane to move the containers with this little manouvering space.
Hi biffa, I watched your city building videos for about 4 years, you know best way to handle the city but this city will become mess soon. You have to change so many things: Metro, university, industries, bridges, hierarchy and... Thank you!
2:30 you could put a bike bridge on either side of the automobile/tram bridge
you could build a university campus with stadiums and all that stuff. keep up with all the great work biffa!!
Before the river is a great place for offices and IT buildings.
build a monorail wiht atleast 3 stops
Really nice episode with a lot of fantastic detailing, as always! :D But please Biffa, turn the Mercury trailers you placed nearby the post office 180 degrees, so they imaginably can be used! :D
You make me watch gameplays of a game I've never even play. It so relaxing
I think most ferry customers want to cross the water, not travel along the edge parallel to all the roads and transit. I would suggest routes that go back and forth like VVVVV rather than the big loop.
Hoozaaah! Got a new pc and can finally play Cities again! I plan on building in tandem with Biffa and OE as videos release from now on.
OverBiffed Egg city...
Maybe in the wooded area you could make a nice dedicated University campus with low density residential around it
For some nice houses, check out Khrysler's new additions. He has some Classic Revival houses which will work well for this map and others.
Hey Biffa... enjoy your content. It's definitely worth the wait. Had a suggestion for overhaul of the cargo area. Mainly the bridge that was upgraded. You should, if possible, create your own road to better suit the needs of the city. That's, of course, if the asset is working. I remember you showing us brief and useful tips of road building earlier this year. With all that said, love you much. Best wishes to you and your family.
You should 100% unlock that hilly plot of land to connect your trainline, you already have ample space to build on already unlocked.
I would love to see that area turned into a tourist, leisure area. I want to see what entertainment you put together for it. Love to watch you build. Enjoy your weekend.
Thanks for the idea!
Hello Biffa, in the new area you could maybe build a downtown/financial area and biffalo Contea is looking really nice.
A Zoo around the river and ocean would be fun! Almost like the Columbia Zoo in South Carolina where a river runs right by the zoo where people use inflatable rafts and travel down the river right by it.
great video! i think a zoo would fit in the area where you are currently building with the high density
A good thing for the new area would be a zoo surrounded by a pedestrian area with mostly wall to wall commercial, but some residential sprinkled throughout.
I would suggest reorienting the metros in both the new areas to horizontal instead of vertical . It would make for a shorter more direct route. I would also recommend moving the university into the other cleared area across the highway from Autumn district so you have room to build a campus with parking. Maybe also move one of the high capacity elementary schools over there and add a playground/park for the kids. I think having two of them in that one area is too close. I wish City skylines dinner more realistic take on schools so they cover a larger area and you don't have to have as many. Autumn district also needs a post office and bank. Wish you had some Big box store assets and gas stations as well.
Grab that tile to get the train connected and make a small mountain village up top or on the other side of the mountain?
Biffa, heres an idea for the new area. You could make a pedestrianized neighborhood. I think this would look cool, and this would expand you city to help you get to Metropolis!
Definitely go for that third island although I have to say the lack of new health care, death care and emergency services is a worry đ
Somewhere for a stadium would be one of the bits of land that's between the highway and the railway!
I would build waterfront entertaiment/restaurant area, with cafes, restaurants
Hi Biffa. My thoughts about the following sector - 32:35 open the right sector of Eggleston and build a nice and fancy hiking/camping park, like a National Park. It will be awesome!)
Consider obtaining the square that will allow you to extend and connect the train line left of Cherry Center. Strategic. Then when you reach the next level perhaps extend into the mountains or someplace rich in resources.
0:10 love the grapichđĽ°
Hi đ As always, excellent video !!! Hereâs my modest suggestion.
If you build more high density housing, youâll need to work on the intersection and the connection because that simple road leading to the T junction wonât cut it I think.
Biffa, are you going to use cargo barges in this city? Seems to me like that could be a nice way to reduce truck traffic on the streets. Maybe start with docks for those next to hte intercity cargo ports?
As for what square to unlock next: go for one that isn't connected by land to the other squares! ferries ftw! )
I love this city because of how much effort you've put into detailing and making each area perfect! Zoning just doesn't having the same calibre as your creativity which is why in my opinion the new zoned area just isn't on the same quality as the areas which you've beautifully crafted
Thank you TJP :-)
@@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines no thank you! Your videos genuinely make my day đ
Your industrial demand is through the roof, you need some industry going.
Biffa the area you were working on right now. Some of the big apartments have little number of households which I saw in one of your previous videos. Could be worth increasing the household numbers.
a stadium in that area would work well, good highway access and can link up to the metro
