Hello folks, it's time for my second journal presenting the features of the upcoming expansion of Cities: Skylines, After Dark, which i want to dedicate to the moving sun over the city. And obviously is also time for your feedbacks, obviously quite numerous!

FEEDBACK CORNER

gviper Now if the default could look more crisp like the filter lol...Nice shots though. I'm still not a buyer of the game...yet.

Yeah the default one looks a bit... dusty! For my thoughts about the game and the new expansion in particular do not do not miss the next and last of this series of journals, with which I can express my opinions about it.

Cyclone Boom Great work Mascalzone, thanks for running this preview on behalf of the community! :thumb: Some neat pics so far, just wondering about the background which seems a little blurred. Is this using the tilt-shift setting?

Thanks a lot, it's a real pleasure. I'm not sure what you are referring to, I have not found any settings such that you have mentioned. could you be more specific. Regarding the pics... I can share my thoughts only tommorrow! :D

idcaf wow, it looks amazing. I can't wait to play this game when expansion pack comes.

MilitantRadical Lookin' gud.

Anderson Xeyed I love this game and... well, now I'm LOVING the game even more and I can't wait 'til tomorrow to get this Exp.:thumb::ohyes:

I'm happy to see all this enthusiasm!

FROM DUSK TILL DAWN

DISCLAIMER: the city you see in the pictures is always the protagonist of my CJ, Aurora, but since I've had to remove all the Steam Workshop custom assets and mods, in reality it is completely different. In essence, only the map and the road network is the same, so do not think that what you see now is what I'm going to show in the future entries about the city: it will be a totally different thing!

Nuff said, here are some images taken at sunset. The yield of the sky is truly remarkable. I'm using the Super Vibrant filter for these.

And below is how it looks with the deafult filter: the difference is pretty remarkable.

And, coming back to the PhotoReal3 filter, here is the new huge bus terminal at work:

Since it is surrounded by Mountains Aurora is not the bet subject to do shots from the sky (flat cities surely make more impact), but here is my try (Super Vibrant again):

With no highrises in the city I've to find new subjects...

The first daylight looks quite similar to the last one, but of course it comes from the opposite point of the compass:

And arriving to the proper dawn light (since you've already seen the night) here is something nobody has spoken about yet: the zoo!

Beach people wake up early:

And that a morning would be without a bit of fog?

And it's all for now, I recommend not even miss the appointment tomorrow!

Keep followin' and you'll be surprised!

The 5th picture (the overview shot of the city and the bay) reminds me a bit of some of the pictures Ive seen of Monaco at night. I think its a fitting testament to how gorgeous this game looks!

And, for me, it reminds me of Rio de Janeiro where I live.

 

This update truly changed C:S for the best! Gorgeous images all around.
