    When I compare Altadis with Betelgeuse, I have to say that Altadis is a step backwards in my eyes.

    I love the historical center with its coliseum, it looks realistic to me, as the buildings follow one single style and the road layout roughly resembles the chaos that you can find in many Italian cities.

    But the rest of the city mixes too many styles in my opinion. It lacks consistency, hence I do not like it that much. Maybe try some smaller city project first, and then grow bigger with time. It does not have to look like the perfectly realistic city, but it does also not have to be another Disneyland.

    Not sure about the road layout as well. The highways are well done, not perfect, but good. What confuses me is the size of the roads. I miss some small roads, it looks like there are only 15m roads and wider. And your highways are also quite large. Seems like your city's inhabitants prefer the car over public transportation.

    Anyways, I am keen on seeing more of your projects :)

    Finally we have a new CJ after some days. Your city belongs definitely to the better half of all City Journals. You took some really good photos from good angles. I like your skyline and the modern look.

    Because you are asking for opinions:
    - Too much repetitive buildings and blocks, try to keep a style and get more variety. French and Latin style side by side look a bit weird.
    - Maybe avoid those huge megastructures like the Rhodos Statue, the gigantic church or the Olympic stadium.
    - A bit too much grid, maybe you can build more curvy roads here and there.

    Keep it up!

      Thank you very much for your opinions and suggestions. Real people added. It is true that some mega-structures like the church or the statue of Rodhos did not look good and remove them. I have added parts of my new city where I hope to have more curved roads. I have also removed some skyscrapers that I think made the screen and I tried to remove some repetitive blocks

    I think you deserve 5 stars for the imposing look of this Megalopolis. I suggest you should use a specific mod (you'll find it in here) in order to replace that horrible cartooned people!

    Very interesting. I like the highways and the waterfronts. The only suggestion I would give is that there are too many repetitive blocks that look exactly the same, which is something you’d be hard pressed to find in real life. Overall, superb work.
