How to Design a British High Street in Cities Skylines!

1. Is it possible to put some form of historical site at the top of the hill…?

2. Biffa, this is great. Please can you add a pub to the highstreet?

3. Biffa, Biffa You have to use real time mod

4. 'building british high streets' – 'builds high streets that are way nicer and better looking than real life and makes me sad 🙁 (but it is excellent playing and always enjoyable watching)

5. BTW, you could draw any 4 unit road, align along it all of your houses, then downgrade this road to 2 unit and have a nice 1 unit gap between road and buildings, and all will be functional. Easy way to do I think

6. Feel like you where a little too random with the buildings on the high street normally they’d be two or three units of shops the same building style next to each other rather than every single one being different than its neighbours

7. Does the steam workshop work on Xbox?

8. it's pretty cool that you're using my hometowns name; Thornaby

9. Is this based on any particular town in England?

10. That's some realistic housing! Lol

11. It seems they fixed the airport dlc where the simulation slow down a lot when placing many taxiways

12. Been a fan of yours for some time now and I'm loving this series, Biffa. Great to see a UK version of CS. All your cities are amazing. Keep up the great work. ☺

13. Loving the music on this series, and that each city you play has its own soundtrack

14. I dont think that those shops on the high street would be backing up to each other, the shop fronts on most high streets would be facing each other rather than what you have done. The car parking for those flats is wey too much, there would be another 4 high rises on them and the residents would be left to park on the street with what little room there is. The park is too big for what you would get now, you would probably get a small playground and that would be about it.

15. Needs more bollards! 😀

16. More British stuff! I don't think there is enough British representation for CS

17. It's such a small detail and I don't even know if you'll be able to find any on the workshop, but a perfect detail for your high street would be a billboard or two, especially on the bare walls on the taller buildings. Something very british about that I think!

18. I was more hoping for a real high street up that hill. continous buildings with shops on both sides. That small side street with the massive parking in front doesn't have any vibes of a european middle-of-town high street.

19. Any Parent and Child car parking spaces?

20. did you change the household numbers on the darker terraced houses you put around the school?

21. Hey Biffa! I’m wondering: when you copy using move, does the house become usable? Does it count as a residence? Do I need to keep the zone under the copied asset?

22. I love the green strip between the car park and the highstreet! Maybe an idea would be to put some picnic tables there so people could eat lunch they'vre bought on their lunch break

23. Yes !!! Back to England!!! Long wait woop

24. Once the high street fully develops, you can add teeny tiny shopping buses as in Luxembourg, they can help transport the shoppers around the area by providing stops between the car park and the various shops!

25. Adequate parking for a UK high street, this must be fantasy 😉

26. The attention to detail is insane. I enjoy watching you play so much more than I enjoy playing myself.

27. Biffa, is there a list of your hardware setup somewhere to be looked at? Game looks amazing when you play.

28. “That’s a whole blimmin’ hoo ha” <- your next t-shirt. 😀

29. Next estate should be called Lyons Estate because of the Lyons tea brand but also because it's where marty mc fly from back to the future lives

30. Hey biffa, have you thought about using more dirt paths? People will trample their own dirt path from A to C across the grass if it's shorter than the tarmac path via B. Also those little unofficial shortcuts between buildings that used to be grass and are now dirt (or thick mud in winter!)

31. hi Biffa, great vid, what's the mod that lets me change the side of the building's deliveries come into a shop?

32. How do you colour your roads differently?

33. 😏 "Flats" on a slope… 😆

34. 17:24 it may be nice to cover the entrance to the back alley with two shops facing the main road. Also, next to the big parking lot it could be beneficial to add a walking path or two though the green section and add a crossing to the shops.
    I'm loving the UK atmosphere of this build, it looks amazing!!

35. Macsergey's No Big Trucks mod would let you keep big trucks away from buildings of a certain size (below 4×4) and only allow small trucks for deliveries.

36. "That's gonna be a whole bloomin hoo haa" – Biffa, 2022.

    Love your work 🙂
