About

Ever wonder what an Urban Planner does for fun? Well, they play City Builders of course! I have loved City Builders since I was a kid and have been playing them for as long as I can remember. I started out with the original SimCity on the SNES, graduated to SimCity 2000 on the PC, and have played every City Builder I can since then. Join me and see how my planning experience has influenced the way I play City Builders! Want to send me something?

Video Description

Shout out to Paradox for sponsoring the UBG! Ready to build a custom harbor?! Check out the DLC here - https://play.citiesskylines.com/CityPlannerPlays ------------------------------------------------------------ With the release of the Bridges and Ports DLC, custom harbors are now possible in Cities: Skylines II. In this video, I’ll show you how to make one and easily level it up in a completely vanilla playthrough. We’ll look at real-world port design for inspiration, build a functional starter port, and work through the new leveling progression system while planning for future rail connections. Along the way, we’ll experiment, make adjustments, and take creative liberties to show how the new features come together. We’ll also dive into the new specialized industries, construct a signature building to anchor our waterfront, and showcase how Bridges and Ports can transform the way you build coastal cities in Cities: Skylines II. ------------------------------------------------------------ MY CURRENT CS2 MOD LIST ► Magnolia County Save: https://mods.paradoxplaza.com/mods/104724/Any ► Magnolia County Mod Playset: https://mods.paradoxplaza.com/mods/106268/Any ► Segunda Beach Save: https://mods.paradoxplaza.com/mods/103168/Any ► Segunda Beach Mod Playset: https://mods.paradoxplaza.com/mods/106269/Any ------------------------------------------------------------ FIND ME HERE ► Use Master Planned Music in YOUR videos and streams: http://MasterPlannedMusic.com ► Twitch: http://twitch.tv/cityplannerplays ► Website: http://CityPlannerPlays.com ► Discord: https://discord.gg/CityPlannerPlays ► Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/cityplannerplays.bsky.social ------------------------------------------------------------ SUPPORT THE CHANNEL, GET COOL PERKS! ► Merch Store: https://link.cityplannerplays.com/Store ► Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/CityPlannerPlays ► YT Membership: https://link.cityplannerplays.com/YTMembership ------------------------------------------------------------ MUSIC FROM THE VIDEOS ► Master Planned Music: https://link.cityplannerplays.com/MPM ► Approaching Nirvana: http://youtube.com/@ApproachingNirvana ► Epidemic Sound: https://link.cityplannerplays.com/Epidemic ------------------------------------------------------------ MY GEAR ► Kit.co Link https://kit.co/cityplannerplays ------------------------------------------------------------ EDITORS ► Lead Editor: @1C2yt ► Assistant Editor: @CityPlannerPlays ------------------------------------------------------------ PLAYLISTS ► Ultimate Beginners Guide to CS2: https://link.cityplannerplays.com/BeginnersGuide2 ► Ultimate Beginners Guide: https://link.cityplannerplays.com/BeginnersGuide ► Cities Skylines II: https://link.cityplannerplays.com/CS2 ► Tutorials: https://link.cityplannerplays.com/Tutorials ► Nicolet Bay: https://link.cityplannerplays.com/NicoletBay ► Verde Beach: https://link.cityplannerplays.com/VerdeBeach ► Clearwater County: https://link.cityplannerplays.com/ClearwaterCounty ► Abandoned City Fix: https://link.cityplannerplays.com/AbandonedCity ►Abandoned City – Bluffside Crossing: https://link.cityplannerplays.com/AbandonedCity2 ► Sustainable City: https://link.cityplannerplays.com/SustainableCity ► Bluffside Crossing: https://link.cityplannerplays.com/Bluffside ► City Tips: https://link.cityplannerplays.com/CityTips ► Previous Live Streams: https://link.cityplannerplays.com/Streams ► Timberborn: https://link.cityplannerplays.com/Timberborn ► Other Games: https://link.cityplannerplays.com/OtherGames ------------------------------------------------------------ HASHTAGS #CitiesSkylines2 #cityplannerplays ------------------------------------------------------------ CHAPTERS 00:00:00 - Start 00:00:53 - Harbor Research 00:05:30 - Starter Harbor 00:24:09 - Oil Industry 00:34:48 - Rail Services 01:08:05 - Fishing Industry 01:12:59 - Budget Fixes 01:18:40 - Landscaping & Detailing 01:23:00 - City Tour 01:24:35 - Final Thoughts
