The Island of Plerkston (After Dark DLC)

[Augwich]

Hello Cities Skylines world! Today I bring to you the first in a (relatively) new series I've started using the new After Dark DLC! My goals for this city are fairly straightforward - I want to strike a balance between playing the game as it was originally meant to be (with a proper budget, dealing with vanilla traffic, etc), and trying to make the city beautiful and as realistic as I can without killing myself. Hopefully you guys like what you see - got any comments, feel free to let me know!

Cheers!

(side note: The series was technically started a few weeks ago, so I'll post the last couple of updates here over the next couple of days, and then you'll be up-to-speed on where I am with the uploads. If you'd like to just watch 'em all though, feel free to head on over to the full series playlist).

Hey guys! Trying to get caught up with the uploads so there'll be a number of updates back-to-back for the next couple of days.

Episode 2 we begin to try and expand our industrial sector, as well as just some general outward expansion (yay suburbia!) We're starting to have some pretty bad traffic back-ups along our main route across the river, but hopefully we can alleviate that some in future episodes.

Enjoy!

Time for update #3! Here we start expansion across the little canal to the North (are there directions in this game? I've thought of it as north but based on where the sun rises it's probably west), with a lot more industrial going in around around the new cargo terminal. We also finally fill out the rest of the main island with some more residential zones.

Also, I apologize for the super stuffed-up voice - getting over a cold is never fun.

Cheers,

#4! Here we flesh out some of the new neighborhoods, and also begin construction on a bike path (loving some of the new road content from the expansion)!. Although the rough terrain and near-by water prove to be a challenge to getting things nice and smooth...

Cheers,

Hey guys! Hope you've had a great week so far!

Here's episode 5 in our Plerkston series - Here we spend a lot of time planning out a new settlement to the west (further up the coast). Lots of road building but hey, I like roads

We're just about caught up with my actual upload schedule here - Update #6 for you! We start off with some prep-work for the upcoming highway, and then just a lot of clean-up work throughout the city - updating some parks, expanding some zoning, fixing railway gradients. All in a day's work in Cities Skylines.

Hope you guys enjoy

Cheers,

Hello again! Here's episode #7. Man, highway construction can be a pain sometimes If you like interstate planning and general frustration, this episode is full of it. We still have a lot of fun though, and I think ultimately things turn out really nicely. Come take a look!

Cheers,
