Darn hot here. 32℃ is maybe not much for some people, but it will take some time for me to get used to.
CS1 had game mechanics for cold. You think CS2 eventually gonna get some effects for particularly hot days? In real life crime increases when theres a heat wave. Beaches (and traffic to beaches) fills up. Tourism increases. And many hot days without rain becomes droughts. And chance for forest fires increases. All the air conditioners drains more power, which must be mitigated by having a city with more greens.
Having a few of these mechanics in the game could be fun. Or annoying when roads you never had any plans for gets packed with traffic, of course.
There’s an interview with Colossal Order’s CEO done by Microsoft. Sie confirms that weather has a direct impact on gameplay. The article is basically just an ad so don’t expect too much.
It’d be awesome for weather to have more effects. Blizzards, droughts, flooding, etc. causing citizens to react. Would be awesome to see it in the future, a Natural Disasters type DLC.
