  • We're taking on classic Cities Skylines (City Skyline) challenges whilst we wait for Cities Skylines 2 (CS1). This time we're trying to build a city whilst flood water is constantly pouring in, raising the sea level!

    You could totally do this challenge. Once the lower city was flooded, you needed to destroy all the roads and services that were causing you to hemorrhage money. Sure your city has shrunk, but you'd have a lot of time to grow it back on the high land. Just live within your means!

  • @cyberfutur5000
    @cyberfutur5000 Рік тому +136

    Some one should make this concept into a whole game! But maybe in reverse, so that the water goes away periodically and increasingly serviere. And maybe put in some sort of water dwelling rodent in it, just for the loughs. Jeez I would watch the hell out of that, if Matt would play such a game.

    • @rachelcookie321
      @rachelcookie321 Рік тому +23

      A game where the water is constantly rising would be interesting though. The game could take place on like an infinitely tall mountain and you have to keep trying to advance your city while at the same time constantly moving it upwards. And possibly there could be new challenges the further up you go like with oxygen and stuff. Could take place on an alien planet so you can be more free with what is realistic.

    This was a nice one, but you forgot you also have water pumping services, and you could had put water pumps on the canal and drain it away. And as soon the main city started to flood, destroy everything that costs money, every service, and dezone the whole place, even remove roads that are not needed anymore, except the higher elevation. But I think your city went bankrupt also because you never paid anymore attention to the highway going out. You could have just used the national 4 way highway for going in and out. Great video, love the video edits. As a fellow CS content creator, may I ask where you get those sound effects? They are really nice and give 'situation awareness'. 🙂

    Can you stack a sea wall on a sea wall? Also never use graveyards and garbage dumps... always upgrade them to recycle centers and crematoriums as soon as you can. Also once stuff stated flooding you should have demolished it all as it still costs you money when flooded. That is what drove you into bankruptcy. You should have done all high density up top and had all the utilities up there. Then demolish everything below if you could not build up the sea walls higher.
