#CitiesSkylines on Hold until May 19

·

People ask why Cities Skylines?

It is not just plop down some roads and some zones and let rip but rather a complex and intricate puzzle carefully balanced that can all go to crap in a moments notice.

 

Transport is more difficult than people actually realise. Having the transport system working to peak efficiency is an ongoing challenge that keeps you awake (following busses around the place is also equally as amusing). The Mass Transit DLC will fill in the missing link the game has had to date – TRANSIT HUBS. With Transit Hubs you can finally create nodes and central nodes that will form the backbone of any rapid transit system and its feeders. Maybe finally I might build a Bus Rapid Transit system? Nah if I need thoughts then out comes light or heavy rail.

 

None the less all will be revealed in complete utter chaos come May 19.

San Solarian City Continues to Evolve

The lack of being able to properly integrate the transit system is apparent as we wait for the Mass Transit DLC to come out in Cities Skylines. Right now you need to build separate stations to facilitate each different mode. This means each of the transit modes operate in a semi independent fashion although limited transfers can happen.

 

When Mass Transit comes out the multi-modal stations will clean it up and I should be able to get full effectiveness out of the transit modes working together collaboratively.

In the meantime getting the heavy rail system to play ball is working with industry able to get the goods in and out.
