Welcome to part two! In this video, I finally get to zoning (while running into a few minor, frustrating problems) and plopping.

Be sure to turn up the volume for this video due to my quiet commentary throughout and enjoy!

We build our first casino yay!

 

But frustration sets in with mass transit problems and profit problems.

 

Enjoy the video!

[Benedict 3,119]

Sorry to say, but that is incorrect it appears that I had downloaded a mod that was not compatible with the Extended Data Rollover Mod. I have removed said mod.

We encounter more struggles SimCity hates me.

[Benedict 3,119]

Good to see I'm not the only one who struggles with the game.

[CapTon 592]

Yeah never thought I would struggle this much when it comes to playing the game I have, in my opinion, mastered.

We finally have a good day yay! Enjoy this extremely long video!

[Benedict 3,119]

I sometimes think that in some aspects of this game you have to have money to make money, i.e. you have to be doing well to do well. Good to see another update.

[CapTon 592]

Guess so and thanks. I'm just glad to have a good video where nothing too horrible happens.

[CapTon 592]

Hey guys I'm hoping to get an update up by Thursday. I can't guarantee anything, though.

 

Just wanted to give you guys an update

I've got a commercial/casino city foing at the moment. I have my towers 3 on each side, provides workers... entertainment venues and such... I'm pulling in 600k between the sleek casino and gaming house .. that's with all mass transit... sky bridges between towers and minimal redlining (traffic congestion). This is my second attempt at this the first time I was pulling in 1.2m a day...(note i havw one small square for drones and industrual, apart from that its all commercial and entertainment)In a more recent city I had a 'round city) and my casino's flatlined.. I couldn't get out of the red.

[CapTon 592]

So are you saying that you're losing money in your city...?

[ausmayor 7]

Lol no that was on a different region... the money m making from this one city is paying for all the imports needed to build the international airport... hence no messy refineries or ground pollution.. my only problem is I can't seem to get high wealth at present... must be something I've missed.

[CapTon 592]

Raise land value through parks and such. Eventually, you'll get high wealth.

You're number one on Ben's Top Ten this week - well done.

[CapTon 592]

You're number one on Ben's Top Ten this week - well done.

I saw that thank you. I greatly appreciate, but did not expect it.

[ausmayor 7]

How's ur casino city seeies going @capTon. I built another city todayvalong with a casino city... and before my very eyes high weslth... no real high roller buildings just the usual landmarks... stadiums... etc... one city is pulling in 300+ and my actual 'casino city' around 100 which is still fledgling... 7 cruiseship docs. Shuttle,streetcars and regional buses.. oh and there is no residentials... splash of commercial... I built the gw arcology.

[CapTon 592]

It's going good and glad to see that you're creating successful cities.
