elsuper Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Just noticed this in the Nuclear Plant description: "Nuclear power brings the threat of a nuclear meltdown." It looks like no one is big enough yet to make Nuclear Plants cost-effective, but did anyone experience this in Beta? If so, what does it consist of?

Dark Specter Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 I had nuclear plants during beta and speed round but never experienced a meltdown, maybe it occurs when you run out of uru? and the results from the meltdown could probably be devastating.

bagpuss Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Ideally it should destroy your nuke plant(s) in that city and then block you from rebuilding them there for a specified period of time which can be dubbed clean up. I would suggust this was measured in weeks not days of real time too as clean up is a long job IRL. Yes i do mean all nuke plants in the city are gone as IRL you generally have one plant with multiple reactors so you would lose more than one at a time. Perhaps it could be capped at two per city.

Toxxikation Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 It should completely destroy your city, IMO. Just look at Pripyat, completely devoid of human life. Most evacuated, but still. Should remove that city from your nation, effectively. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grillick Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 (edited) Meltdown of nuclear plants is an overblown concern in modern times. Right now where we are in game time it should be a concern, but by the time we get to the 90s and 00s, it shouldn't be.

Wiliam Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 I think we should forget about it all together. To be fair, Nuclear Plants are very costly as it is and I don't think it would be fair to have a possibility to be punished simply for having a Nuclear plant built. At most, a meltdown should only destroy the power plant and no further infrastructure. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the meltdown was probably a relic idea from back when nuclear plants had no infra limit for which it could power. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Specter Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 im looking forward to a chernobyl incident if sheepy decides to add the meltdown. 1 Quote Amidst the eternal waves of time From a ripple of change shall the storm rise Out of the abyss peer the eyes of a demon Behold the razgriz, its wings of black sheath The demon soars through dark skies Fear and death trail its shadow beneath Until men united weild a hallowed sabre In final reckoning, the beast is slain As the demon sleeps, man turns on man His own blood and madness soon cover the earth From the depths of despair awaken the razgriz Its raven wings ablaze in majestic light Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emmad Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Nuclear plants already cost a ton, making them actually meltdown would make them useless because it wouldn't be worth the risk. However if you tweak them a bit and make them a lot more cost efficient I wouldn't be totally against the idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The meltdown description was there sense beta and that was like over a year ago and i dont think this will be implemented or sheepy is to lazy to add it so i wouldnt worry about meltdowns any time soon 1 Quote Amidst the eternal waves of time From a ripple of change shall the storm rise Out of the abyss peer the eyes of a demon Behold the razgriz, its wings of black sheath The demon soars through dark skies Fear and death trail its shadow beneath Until men united weild a hallowed sabre In final reckoning, the beast is slain As the demon sleeps, man turns on man His own blood and madness soon cover the earth From the depths of despair awaken the razgriz Its raven wings ablaze in majestic light Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grillick Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 I think you need to make them cheaper or more efficient before you implement any possible meltdown mechanic.

Dark Specter Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 if this meltdown feature is added then it should effect other nations because meltdowns cause radiation leaks and that spreads through the air to neighboring nations.

Khestra Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 if this meltdown feature is added then it should effect other nations because meltdowns cause radiation leaks and that spreads through the air to neighboring nations. The nations in this game don't have borders, so it's not a relevant mechanic. Aside from a basic geographic area, we don't know who our neighbors are.

Until it does become part of the game, could you remove the line about a meltdown from the description in-game? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
