I get an instant morale boost when you upload a video from this series
Glad you're enjyoing it mate :)
An hour long episode? What a treat
Maybe the airport could be named something like 'Bay Leaf', because you're leaving Orchid Bay?
Or perhaps "Arriva" for arrival or up?
Orchid Bye is something that comes to mind hahaa
The question is...do Orchids have leaves?
@@Vincent_A anything with the name Arriva goes wrong so I wouldnât đđ
@@FoxArcade Lol!
The downtown is growing. The road frame episode is alway underrated, because it might not be very exciting but it determines so much and creates the base fore everything.
Also: two stadiums already and a lot of transport hubs! This is much more than a preparation.
Great episode again!
Imperatur has a vanilla trick that allows you to put a pedestrian path 'under' a road so cims can cross roads without a crossing. You basically higher the terrain at each side of the road, stretch the pedestrian path across, and the path sits 'under' the road allowing cims to cross but without needing an actual crossing. I just thought that could be useful for you in relation to your stadium access / tram line.
czcams.com/video/gcyA93BZUrU/video.html - from 1 minute 55 seconds
Well, i do it using pedestrian tunnels, has proven to be effective.
The baseball team should be the orchid bagels, and you should have doughnut shops around the stadium.
Thats such a fun idea
"So you will come... Oh you WILL come down this way, I will make sure you do!" Egg low key throwing threats at the misbehaving roads đ just love your one sided conversations with various in game stuff â€
Awesome ep, it's so nice to see the thought process and the prep in action, it already looks amazing, excited for the skyline đ
Chers Star!
I think the airport should be called Myodes Airport - Myodes is a type of Orchid known as 'the flying orchid'. Fab build as always! x
10:49 These road network building episodes are my favorite. Roads are what I struggle with the most in my cities and watching episodes like this one gives me so many new and useful ideas. Thanks for all the amazing content!
Orchid Bay City Airport (A bit like London City Airport because they're both smaller regional airports in cities that will end up having another bigger airport)
OBC would be its IATA (International Air Transport Association) code like how London city airport's IATA code is LCY
OOBC could be itâs ICAO, the first O stands for the capital of Overcharged.
@@rAndy_883 ah a fellow aviation nut đ
@@bescotdude9121 just a newbie enthusiast đ
Who knew downtown network layouts could be so thrilling?! Well, Egg and his fans know. That was a proper mind-shagging. If nothing else, this is the most complex downtown transportation network you've done and I have no doubt it will be the best looking skyline.... when we get it! I'm ok with being teased for a while. It will be well worth the wait. Oh yeah, the view of the bay from the baseball stadium is awesome. Love it!
What an enjoyable hour of content. Amazing planning and vision as always. Just looking at the orientation of airport island, it looks like the plane path will be straight through your skyscraper area so you'll nned to be careful placing the tall boys as we don't want any accidents!
Loved the episode. I wish it had been available before I laid out my downtown last week. So many great ideas. One point, your elevated highway seems to have limited access in one of the directions (complicated due its closeness to the elevated rail); a couple slip roads on that side of the road would likely enhance its functionality. Canât wait to see how you âfillâ the downtown! Always a pleasure!
Dude I could watch you build downtown road networks for even longer than this treat of a video. Really dug the way you've incorporated all the transit lines, keen to see how the skyline takes shape, if and when you get to it!
Cheers Jason! Wonder if there will be a towers of Golding, the HQ of the farm corp!
@@OVERCHARGEDEGG Haha mate, only time will tell! Like I said way back when, I have a great name for an Ore Mining Corp too, could be a tycoon! The scourge of Orchid Bay! đ€Ł
I noticed that you still have a couple of neighborhoods with the old pseudo baseball parks and soccer fields. Should probably upgrade those to the actual park assets so that they look nicer!
Would be great to see some fancy pedestrian bridges connecting the two islands together
â€â€â€â€ this episode! Inspired me to totally level my âdowntownâ and start over again with this kind of thoughtful planning.
BTW, my dog Dee passed away last year, so how about naming the baseball team âOrchid Bay Beaglesâ in his honor? đ¶
This is the most impressive transportation build that I have ever seen in Cities Skyline. Thats not an exaggeration. Its a masterwork. Bravo!
Thank you for another fantastic episode Egg! I think the internal train line might be slightly messed up at the Corner of Korea transport hub (Iâm not sure it stops in both directions?).
Also, would you consider adding in an intermediate metro stop along the elevated parallel network section? I know there is an additional monorail stop but I think another metro stop might be really handy, otherwise the train and metro basically just duplicate each other for that stretch. It could even be another transfer between monorail and elevated metro (if there is still space!)
Considering traffic is the bane of my existence during my âdowntown-high densityâ areas, I love this video because it gives a lot of perspective on how important different types of traffic can help ease the 67% traffic flow of my city
Jolly old job! I love how you took the time to adjust rail, metro and motor road to properly align! A wonderful day to you and citizens of Orchard Bay! đș
After the tons of your videos iâve seen, Iâm still so impress by your ability to lay down all those network and at the end it is so beautiful.Iâll never understand how you can do that đ hope one day Iâll be able to do just a fraction of this by myself.
That was a really great one, I look forward for those skyscrapers to take place in Orchid Bay.
Have a great day Boss!
Cheers Romain! Appreciate the kind words :)
The commedic timing on the detail review starting with the Orcid United stadium on fire was too good
RIP REDS... Love to watch the framework being placed in. I find it very educational really, to help understand how important it is to have the road network placed before everything else can come in to play. Thank you :)
Please bring on the downtown build in the next episode. That way, we can watch in sequence the High density being placed and laid out in order, without having to wait an extra random episode in between.
An hour of downtown planning is an absolute treat. Thanks for this! I always love seeing you craft these things and just seeing all the public transport in place is super exciting! Diving into the Downtown Part 1 video right away. Looking forward to seeing where you take this!
The red color of that one stadium kinda invokes the same vibe as a Fire-Star orchid. They are really quite beautiful! Also, that is a sweet name for a sports team. The Fire-Stars
Such a good episode and it was over an hours too!
Loved the upbeat music during the time-lapse it fit the fast face building really well.
Almost everything looks perfect and I cant wait to see it built up.
Only thing I would suggest is redrawing the wonky bridge between the downtown slipramps and into the diamond intersection.
Otherwise, awesome job, awesome editing. Keep em coming please.
Amazing video, love the length of it. I was very on the fence about that long line of differnt raised transport but love how it is looking and itching for the next episode
Another excellent video! Really enjoy watching you piece together the downtown road framework. Looking forward to the skyscrapers going up in the potentially the next episode! That transport hub is crazy busy for having almost nothing around it lol. Can't wait to see the monorail properly in action. Also keen to see how you include the Brooklyn and Queens DLC into your build!
Cheers James! I think we'll be crafting the skyline over 2 or 3 episodes :)
Awesome love the use of public transport.
There is an opportunity to add in a underground metro from the super hub you just added to the shopping plaza from a few episodes ago.
Notices on your elevated road travelling into the city centre there are no off ramps they all flow the opposite way possibly why you donât have much traffic on it
All the ramps can access/be accessed from both directions of the elevated road - its vanilla and so they just cross the median
@@sihollett I think you will find they are one way ramps
@@coldbloodau they are one-way ramps, but each pair in the area shown in this video (by the baseball stadium, by the transport hub, in the Heart of Korea) is a pair - one off, one on - and therefore creates a full-access junction.
Hmmm, my, another beautiful build! I can't think of a name suggestion for the airport, unfortunately. Regarding the oceanfront park, maybe you could try to give part of it some actual beach vibes? I know vanilla doesn't really let you make functional beaches (and even the beach volley building is horrendously surrounded by concrete), but I think you can make it kinda work
Looks like some serious rioting after those losses. They even set fire to the stadium. I recommend a big main fire station downtown, but also a police station to deal with those soccer hooligans!
In happier news, I love the use of that insane transit hub. I never have enough convergence in one place to justify a beast like that, but youâve got all the modes going into the same area, in about the right direction! Also, a harbor-hub-airport line seems like the perfect use for a monorail, serving a limited number of destinations in a line. Too bad about that harbor station not working though.
Awesome vid egg, been following this since the start even downloaded the build (cant remember which 1 lol) and made some changes like a metro line running in-between the cuplet like on the blue line in Chicago (which runs down the centre of the highway, though i do wish Clus would update his berlin metro to include a quad line and 1 way station tracks lol
Awesome build again. So helpful to see how to build a road network for the downtown (not boring at all â€). Canât wait to apply to my city.
Cheers Mate!
I am very inspired by your "Traffic Networks First" take on skylines. I usually start with "what will go in this area?" and always leave the networks as an after-though and then am saddled with un-optimized networks or networks that are cobbled together. I will start trying to use the network layouts first and then build around it to see how that evolves my gameplay
Love it egg, looks amazing! Hey one thought: probably a good opportunity for a monorail and underground stop up by the baseball stadium, just for multiple means of transit access.
Looks like a lot of folks are coming in from the cruise terminal for games, could be good to have direct access without having to switch over
Loving the series!
Lovely work . I'm excited for downtown !!!
Thanks for giving me a great video to end my day. Hope you enjoy the rest of your day and as always another amazing video Egg. Thank you so much for sharing you massive talent for creating!
continuing to enjoy your builds. keep up the great work, love all the transportation methods used. Future proof as much as you can.
This was such a useful video. I struggle with my downtown areas and always get spaghetti roads and chaos. My public transport goes awry and my density looks like a mess. This makes much more sense. Like building your skeleton before adding nerves and muscles. I have SO much to learn! :D Also having things look so attractive is a big bonus.
I loved this episode as always !
It would be a nice addition to add landmarks in the city, especially in the downtown with modern landmarks
Very cool setup of all the transport hubs! Anxious to see the new skyline now. Driven thru a few cities with raised transport like that in my life. đ
Absolutely stellar network planning! I imagine this will look amazing once you have your skyscrapers in.
Curious to see how you integrate the abandoned factory into the airport build
Cheers Ben! Haha I think they'll be getting demolished đ
@@OVERCHARGEDEGG no! I think you could change those bus highways into compact four lanes and make it work. Or move the bridge either side of them. Itâs such a unique feature of the map - you could also incorporate a unique factory besides it
absolutely love it! Downtown planning at scale scares me off every time
I started watching your videos today because I want to get ready for Cities Skyline 2. Iâm from Italy and your videos are addictive like drugs. I canât wait to see the next episodes. For a beginner like me, your videos are useful to me now and will be useful to me when the new game comes out. I also hope that you will make guides for beginners on Cities Skyline 2. Now I will recover what you did on the first game.
This was great as always! I wish I could build cities like you, Egg! Canât wait to see the skyline! Donât make us wait any longer!
Love the episode OE! Couple of suggestions, the metro line from your hub could come from underground. You have an underground platform you aren't using that could connect nicely.
Also, the monorail road going to the harbour converted your 4 lane road to 2 lanes.
Edit: nevermind about the metro, you used the platform I was talking about later in the episode.
With the harbour monorail bus Hub Cs are aware. There were about 30 people before I was going to advise them of the issue
Orchid City FC with purple colors perfectly mirrors Orlando City FC as well as working with the Man City/Utd dynamic.
Very nice. I think the above-ground metro is a bit much but I guess you might as well use it if it comes with that transit hub. It just takes up a lot of space imo.
Cant beleive ive cought up on this serise already! I feel like I jusy found your channel. been addicted to the Orcid Bay build. keep up the great work.
I really like these network infrastructure episodes. Thank you, OE
the music during the timelapse really was a vibe i needed today !
Naughty hubs, indeed. Always fun to watch a downtown planning episode, Egg! That is a chunky group of transit coming through...have you ever done that before? Very interested to see that get busy! Lovely as always, well done! â„ïžâ„ïžâ„ïžâ„ïžâ„ïžâ„ïžâ„ïž
I admit, I thought you had gone a little crazy with the metro/train hubs. I thought way too many, but it really comes together nicely. I think I tend to underplan when it comes to the downtown areas of the city. I can see it working nicely if I plan a trip from Biffa Gardens to one of the sports buildings, or the airport. I'm loving how this build is coming together, and I'm super excited for the downtown. I'm also excited to see the highway from the Karen side incorporated into the city but that's awhile off I think.
This my favourite part watching how you set up roads and public transport,it helps me a lot thank you egg đđđđ
I think the other metro should head off to the airport.
Absoulutly beautiful sight lines.
Amazing work as always
Slightly unsure about all the parallel networks but will make my mind up wjen the down town is built up.
â€â€â€â€â€
I enjoy these kinds of episodes. It's really interesting to see what you come up with. I'm very excited for the next episode. I can't wait to see what you do or don't do, lol đâ€
I just want to say thank you for fixing the highspeed rail network going to beautiful piece of art that the hub is, those were close to 10 minutes of pain #TrainPoliceReadyForDutty #OrchidBayCrew đâ€
Lmao, keeping an eye on it from the Police HQ tower across the river đCheers Carlos!
These are one of my favorite type of videos to watch. Really enjoy watching these network videos!
Sensei!!! Bestow on me some of your transport network, pre-planning and road network knowledge. Absolutely marvelous.
These are some seriously impressive networks. The parallel elevated transit network is super cool. I cannot wait for the skyscrapers!
Donât forget about the train from the airport to downtown. Be good to get them involved.
Could we add an Olympic Park with a mix of Campus and Stadium dlc. Waterfront
If you build a high end property high residential, could get a Lordes cricket/ Wimbledon going.
A government agency district.
Hey egg I recently found amazing tram quay roads and I immediately thought of how much you'd love it. You can even zone straight off the waterfront. I think you should give it a look for your modded build! Tram Promenade roads by Clus
They sound like fun! I'll check them out for Thessia mate :)
@@OVERCHARGEDEGG I'll warn you there's a blue tearing issue when loading a save, but touching the node with node controller immediately fixes and I promise is well worth the look
Can't wait for the next episode! Really great work.
Great episode! Here's an name for the airport: Aeneas regional airport maybe once you have the hq you could name the airlines after the airport! Can't wait for the waterfront build but don't know how you'll incorporate the "Chicago" vibe without the Grand ballroom that's on the end of navy pier
When he drew in the looong parallel train/metro elevated tracks and Road. ooooooof that was satisfying!
Building these networks is the most fun for me, thank you for great episode
If I can manage even a fraction of this organization in my own city Iâll consider it a massive win. Love the build as always, road networks are a favorite of mine. Love to see the thought process that goes into such a wonderfully flowing road network. Makes me think of a million ways my rl city is doing it wrong đ
55:47 - With the downtown island, which I'm going to call prematurely name "Lavender Key" - as there's industrial wasteland there already. It would be cool to see that as a converted park, there was once an airport there, but outgrew the island (or was deemed unsafe to use because of the high rises and mountains entranceways - like Hong Kong's Kai Tak Airport) and had to be relocated south west (or north) onto a larger coastal plot of land connected by a 2 stop high speed rail. Lavender Key (like: Tempelhof airport / Kai Tak Airport) is now converted it into a park using a mix of park/airport assets - perhaps the entrance can be flanked by the airport museum, art gallery, opera house and some other cultural elements? Just a thought!
that moment when you placed the baseball park with the music gave me the chills
Wow....I can just imagine how the skyline is going to look. Can't wait until your next video!
Demonstration Leader: What do we want?
Adoring Masses: Skyscraper Downtown Build
DL: When do we want it?
AM: Next episode! Or, whenever. We're just happy to be along for the ride!
I love the road net work ones. This was awesome!!!
Orchid Bay Burners, a tip of the cap to the soccer stadium which burned to a crisp in the team's inaugural season.
Little fun fact, The baseball stadium would not fit MLB's (Major League Baseball) Regulations since it doesn't have a designated Batter's Eye in center field, which is a solid colored flat wall in the middle of the outfield to help the batter see the ball coming from the pitcher.
Notice in the Stadium you referenced in San Francisco, the view of the ocean is off to the right instead of down the middle, since it needs to make room for the batters eye down in centerfield. Makes the cities skyline asset quite strange if you're used to normal baseball stadiums.
Absolutely amazing video as always!
Awesome road Layout - cant wait to see the skyline. But some more farms for the next episode would be great :D
Lol sounds good too me!
Another incredible episode Egg!! You are the Cities transport master! đđđ
Hey egg great video as always. Will you build a second downtown somewhere in the city for later episodes? Cheers mate!!
Ahh yes, the convergence of all of those big roads and rails is SO satisfying. Also, Orchid Baysballers ;)
Needed this after a 3 and a half hour drive! Thanks, Egg!
Thanks for watching mate, hope the drive wasn't too bad!
Amazing episode! Maybe save that last metro line on the hub for an Airport Express line?
For stadium, I would put the price to max and maybe a policy or two to increase the local win ratio. Will also need the extra income when you start dropping those uniques in for the downtown. Can't wait for more and hope they fix their hub asap. The cruise terminal was one of my favorites from the last update and i'm sad to see part of it isn't working
Watching these road network episodes gives me ideas for my cities.
There is no such thing as a boring road network build!! CS Blasphemy! There is so much to love and fawn over! The stadiums look amazing!
Can we call the baseball stadium "Orchid BAYseball Stadium" > I can't deny a good pun suggestion haha
best cities video ever
You, sir, are a freak of nature ;) Thanks for your great work. Mitch from Australia.
The baseball team should be a play off the Dodgers (who got the name from pedestrians dodging street cars), or something rail based. The OB Locos sounds good; I'm envisioning the logo being a crazed conductor, with "Loco" being short for Locomotive.
Baseball team: Bay-city or Bayside Peanuts
The Stadium: Sky Harbour-view Stadium (wink wink) cause you have the harbour view and itâll be right next to the future Orchid Bay Airport.
Awesome video as always Egg! Love seeing how your mind works when it comes to planning your networks, especially with this behemoth of an interconnected city.
Not surprising to see ManU, I mean Orchid United burn down đ (kidding).
As much as I canât wait to see the downtown, I think youâre about due for another beautiful themed residential to help build up some cims, ready for all those city office daily grinds đđ. Much love my dude â€
The sports arenas and car parks are such an important addition that really helped ice the cake for me.
Can't wait to see the skyline come to life! Greetings from Brasil!
Me either! Greetings from England my friend
wow my dude you really went all out (also name idea for the downtown: Orchid fields)
Great episode. I'm glad to see you use the big transit hub without it looking like you forced it in place. I did have a question, I see your income fluctuation and I have the same problem. Up 50K, down 18K, up 5K, down 30k. Is that anything to worry about when you have 40k+ population? I can't seem to get past the idea of the red numbers being a bad omen that my city is about to collapse. :{)
âŸïžđïž - Orchid Bay Sliders (my first thought was Siders, given the location but Sliders had a more of a baseball theme to it)
đ«đ - Louis Liger Intl. (author of Le Jardinier Fleuriste et Historiographe in 1704, wrote about Orchis who is punished and killed and transformed into a flower)
Really well done
Maplebrook Regional Airport for maybe historical reasons. You could maybe tie in a story of an old maple farm that used to be on the site of the airport?
This transit convergence is magnificent! I do wish we had an aerial view or updated map to look at for reference. Something to study? Please? Thank you for the top-down, but it's a bit low-res. >.
Amazing as always.
