    Orchid Bay has to be my favorite CS build on UA-cam. Most other end up being either underengineered and bland, or overengineered and unnaturalistic. Somehow you've made a city that both has tons of personality, but also doesn't seem overengineered. It spreads out really naturally and is pretty dense. This looks like a city I might actually see, and would enjoy living in.

    Hey, loving this city! Wanted to give you a tip when it comes to the train station: Place a temporary basegame station on the same bottom line, just past the CC station, and wait for a train to come in. After that you can delete the basegame one, and intercity trains will start coming to the CC station.
    Thank you for doing these more finicky, no mods builds. I play on a laptop with very few mods, and the tips and tricks mean a lot to me; I imagine console players really appreciate it, too!

    That's a great transport hub build with the major plaza space. It looks so natural and the choice of assets is brilliant. I like the idea of having the elevated metro line being a dedicated airport express serving only the major hubs. Then using the underground lines to circle and cross the downtown island.

    Nice episode! I love the big boy tower you placed in the beginning (even more with the korean big boy next to it). As you said, it gives such a significant impact and I think it will fit into the skyline. I would also keep the metro line raised until after the downtown (unless it stops there). Your work with layers is really good and this would continue this theme into the downtown. For the train i'd see which station is included in the downtown and go from there.

  • @apaku

    Living in a city where the metro company is called 'Hochbahn' (translates to elevated train) I have to give my vote to keeping the metro elevated at least for some duration of the downtown area😄Embanking it or sinking it into a gully would probably be nice too, but I feel the network lacks some details that make it stand out among taller buildings when placed flat on the ground - like the train or tram tracks do. Also definitely keep the Servicing Services office in that spot, it fills so many viewpoints with interest it's definitely worth it! Very cool transport hub build, looking forward to the walking ants once more parts are in and this is getting even busier. I guess I need to go figure out what to do in my build-along, for some reason the networks crossing the bridge are much further apart that in Orchid Bay 🤔😆

    Love the build, my only question is how will buses get there? Presumably in the future you'll want buses coming in, especially from the bus highway nearby, maybe consider making one of the pedestrian roads adjacent to the city services building a bus pedestrian road so that in future buses can get of the expressway and converge at the hub.

    I am really liking the look of the one-or-two self-important towers scattered in the mid-density, it feels very realistic. As for the networks, I would keep the raised metro raised and on its way to the next island - let it be more linear to the underground's loop. The train lines, however, I'd bring back down to ground alongside the existing track (or pull them both up onto a levy to keep them from flooding out and provide tunnel/mini-bridge opportunities.)

  • @jaredlash5002
    @jaredlash5002 Рік тому

    Hi Egg, at 26:03, your couplet system becomes a bridge quite a ways before bridging over the railroad. You can push back your terraforming there and include a local road connection under the couplet to the other side of the couplet. It would help increase the connectivity to whatever will lie on the other side of the couplet.

And now I've got it!!! Thank you for that! The fencing alongside the road honestly was my favourite detail you added, just looks so good!

    @autolykos9822 Рік тому

    A hint for those metro (and monorail) stations that are half a unit offset from the grid: To create a second grid that's also offset by half a square (without mods), you can have two diagonals leave at 45° from a temp road, spaced an odd number of squares apart (45° is easy when using the grid) like so:
    .../...\...
    They will intersect at half a square offset from your regular grid. Do that twice on the same road, delete the inner two diagonals and connect the intersections. Presto, road that's parallel, but offset by some number of squares plus one half.

    Always inspiring. Don't know if you amend it later in the episode, but at 9:04 have the angle of the ped road go to the right instead of the left. It would mirror the road on the south side of the plaza coming from the subway station. Just a thought.

  • @metromaster2010
    @metromaster2010 Рік тому

    I love this transit hub. For the continuation, I would keep the metro elevated and let the trains go to grade (ground level). This is likely because I live in New York where third rails at ground level are okay, but in the neighboring state of Connecticut they are forbidden, and overhead catenary is used. Hence the commuter trains on the New York - Connecticut line will change from third rail to catenary (or vice versa) on the move which is joy to watch if one knows where to be.

    Really great build. Servicing services office placement is perfect. I wonder if the use of pedestrian roads makes the AI prefer walking more than paths in a bit of an overpowered way (not bad for the sim though!). Probably could've done with a block or two of some apartments on the edge of that suburb closest to the hub, some of the smaller green cities townhouses or something.

    Will there be a bus connection to the transit hub? it seems like the bus and the trams are the only ones not quite linked in there, and a shuttle between the hub and the proper bus hub might make some sense.

    Gotta say, the high-rise unique building looks great where it is. Also, it's good to know that the platforms for intercity trains are random, I just placed that glass station with elevated metro and had I not seen this, I'd probably never have got intercity trains there. Bit of a shame how it works as I actually have two platforms I want to receive intercity trains, but I guess that's how the game works. Maybe they could make it so you can select what tracks you want to have it?

    Saddens me watching this. I was following along in me own way nicely on Xbox. Then the remastered version came out and I thought "oh mean" then to find out the dlc situation I now just watch in envy. I realize I can go back to the old game but it's really like paying without glasses on lol 🤣

    Connect the elevated train line to the one running parallel to the water on the ground i believe it will just look good to have the most busiest railway station in downtown as ppl might be coming from two different parts of the cities nd meeting at the same place rather than having two parallel station to divide the crowd

    EXCITED FOR HIGH DENSITY!!!!
    Also happy to see egg appreciating Level 3 assets 😂 .
    I think creating an asian or indian subcontinent themed high density city will be new and challenging. I am looking forward to build a high density build with a overground metro or mono running through them.
    You are the best egg. I always wait for notification of your new video.
