You can do roundabouts with as many ways as you want and in whatever shape you want. It doesn't have to be circle as not all roundabouts are.

Am I the only one who kinda wish some sort of multiplayer in the near future?
I always wanted a multiplayer mode since Sim City 2000 and SC2013 was kinda okay just had its own problems.
Cities: Skylines looks to be a candidate for the best city builder to-date and I kinda wish it had at least some sort of region play with friends. Even asynchronous would suffice~

Looking at a few LPs and streams, it seems like the citizens don't really care how long it takes for them to get to work, even if they're waiting forever at a bus stop or metro station. I guess it's not a bad design decision by itself, seeing as how the finicky transit system in SimCity just pissed a lot of people off more than anything else.
I would like to see Colossal Order tweak their "hard mode" mod a bit and integrate it into the game. Mainly, have it as an optional setting, and in addition to the current hard mode settings, add in things like a minimum time citizens are willing to spend to commute to work.

Cool. I'll try to replicate the Place de l'Etoile (I'll even be able to put the Arc de Triomphe), and watch the chaos that follows.
According to my email, in about 4 hours.

Traffic problems punish you by delaying services, and from the streams I've watched, it's effective. There is plenty of incentive to build efficient transport systems.

The sort of sentence that would make any home owner have a heart attack. Lol
Review embargo ends afaik at 15:00 CET / 6am PST.
I just played Cities in Motion for the first time a bit yesterday.
They definitively had it in there, so maybe they could port it over?
And seeing how hard it is to fix these kinds of problem in that game, I think it was a good decision they simplified it for Skylines, which should focus more on the city building.

PSA: Workshop will be (mostly) wiped for launch
Modders, asset creators, wonderful people all around - feel free to reupload your mods as soon as it has been cleansed.
Why? Technical reasons, assets missing proper LOD levels, a lot of old beta stuff clogging it up. Hopefully our wonderful modders will quickly repopulate it
Thank you for understanding.

It's a shame about the Simcity OT line but it was definitely the right thing to do given Maxis' demise. Makes me sick how blase EA can be about killing one of the most important series in gaming, and sacking people for EA's failures and terrible policies. Awful. From the ashes as far as city builder games though. There's strong irony in the birth of CSL. Instant rapport. I look foraward to playing this game for years and will reward the devs in whatever way I can because I know Paradox will keep creating content.

Ugh, I really want to play this, but of course this and the next week will be the busiest weeks of the year. Yeah, right.
(I'll try to play a few hours at least. Who needs to sleep?)
EDIT:
Checked my Nuuvem key, it said:
Which means they still haven't received the keys. It probably just means they still haven't started distributing the keys (it's still early here on Brazil, not even 8AM right now). I'll check it later and update the status if anything happens, for the non-portuguese speakers that bought the game on Nuuvem.

Look at the previous page. I wrote them a mail and they said around 15:00 CET, so in about 3 hours.Ugh, I really want to play this, but of course this and the next week will be the busiest weeks of the year. Yeah, right.

Damnit, GMG still hasn't given out keys.
You know, the longer I live the more I realize that I need to just buy everything from Amazon. Whenever I don't I almost always later feel like I wish I had, lol.

Lots of enquiries re. Cities Skylines. There's no preload on the game, but pre-purchasers will have keys by unlock time (UTC) today

I just got the email from GMG too. I imagine it should be soon for everyone else.
Point Of Order: The devs are Colossal Order. Paradox are publishing.

Publishers are pretty influential when it comes to this though. Not many would support giving away free content the way Paradox is known to.

Ok Skelmersdale is definitely going to be my roundabout tutorial.
The population is around 33,000 and there's a nice mix of housing with two industrial areas NW and SE.
The road layout is... interesting and the smaller roads are really intricate, and I can't see why 1:1 isn't possible, we'll see, but it's the bonkers overuse of roundabouts that I want to recreate

Yeah what I meant.

So I need some explanation about the asset editor. So it looks like you can use these creations in a normal, achievement-based game, correct? It also looks like assets are based upon the functions of normal buildings too.
Can you make custom buildings that function like commercial, residential, etc?
Watching Skye build his container 'park', it kinda looks like you can set the entertainment output as well - or is it just a static function of the size?
Anyways, I love his container park idea. Looks like a very thematic way to bring entertainment to an industrial area.
What about farms? Right now the farming industrial buildings are one of the more disappointing parts of this game, because they look so tiny. Would someone be able to build a large farming industrial asset - something that looks like a big field - and still be functional for industrial output?
