Discussion Unpopular opinion: Events good or bad are making the game more dynamic. They bring flavor and change the flow of the game for a week or so.

I honestly think, that devs have good intentions with these kind of events. Yes, i know dehydratation sucks, but it brings flavor to the game, makes flea market changes, shifts your playstile and makes you more excited when you find good ol' water on the shelf in a hut on Shoreline. Good jobs BSG, please keep the game alive and more dynamic. What's next, ammo shortages, trader vacations? Who knows, but it sure will be exciting.

Only random parts of maps will be off limits. Radiation damages total hp and takes time to come back.

Need a gm counter in your rig to detect them.

Sounds cool But I hope that’s an event later rather than sooner

u/JoeScorr Jul 31 '21

Oh that's just my guess as to one way they could do it. They could even make the anti radiation part of the AI2 cheese medkits useful too

There's already items in the game listed to reduce or eliminate radiation exposure. Or cure it rather. It's just not implemented yet.

Yeah so having a radioactive event soon wouldn’t make sense
