what about riots and civil unrest in the game?

[ITali]

this is just an idea of having riots and civil unrest in the game.

[CrazyGraham]

yes this would be nice to see in a future dlc

[NoirMoutton]

I just want to build beautiful cities. I don't need military.alien,zombie,godzilla monster, terrorist or killer virus dlc. There are countless other games that scratch that itch.

i would like to see an EVENTS dlc..... parades, traffic jams/accidents, cop chases, business grand opening, charity, zoo gets a new animal, high school prom, school graduations, college bowl, tv show filming, movie premiers....

and Noir....just don't buy that DLC if you don't like it.

as an optional DLC maybe it would be ok for some people. when i think back to playing the Caesar series and how your plebs could get unhappy and start destroying things though... well it was quite annoying. i certainly would not be buying such a DLC.

Neither would I dd31879. This concept is a sc concept so those who like this can always go back to sc or the many others that have this concept . Seeing that cim models/animations can't be altered in CS, there won't be any visual effects to watch anyway.

Then go play a game that has "what you want" prince!!! It won't happen here for a long time if at all as you cannot mod the cim models/animations.

i liked the riots in simcity 4, because it was directly tied to the happiness of your sims. people should be angry if you don't take care of thier basic needs, the mob would wander around and cause trouble and if you didn't have police they would just keep going. if you had police they would block the roads and trap the rioters and take them away... good times

@above poster.
Then you will need to return to sc4 to have your riots. It simply won't happen in CS.

where in my post did i say i wanted riots in CS? a guy can't simply reminisce about great city building memories?

[deeplogic]

I would love to see some sort of outlash from citizens, and, beyond that, congregation in general. It would be nice to see folks gather at, say, a new shop or for there to be various ad-hoc outdoor events in the case of, let's say, great civil pride. Heck, maybe even throw in political campagins and the like - maybe even having those officials acting like the advisors in SimCity (although I can't say I was too fond of those). That could be an entire DLC. If the "Natural Disasters" DLC didn't have "Natural" in it, I'd say at least the riots would be a perfect addition to that one.

I'm all for anything that simulates more aspects of the city. Sure, I like building and I may even play with unlimited money most of the time, but I do enjoy the challenge of building a city up, woes and all here and there. I can't say the Tweet... eh... whatever they're called... feeds really do it for me. They're great, but I would like to see a more visually enticing manifestation. I really enjoy that I can follow an individual and that they have a routine, but it would be awesome if some of them did more than take to social media in the face of a challenge.

+1

I noticed your comment after writing this, MotownCounty: Agreed! +1

i think that this will make CS more realistic. also i belive that this should be a DLC, no body will be forced to buy it.

Firstly, Cities Skylines is not a realistic simulation of life in a city. Therefore you couldn't make it 'more' realistic.
The Cim's themselves are very simple representations of people. In order to imbue them with more personality than their current happiness requirements, would mean you would have to provide each and every single Cim individual responses to the presence or absence of those happiness needs. When dealing with up to 64k instances, that would be an unbearable burden on the cpu of most PC's. This is why CO have avoided complicating the social modelling and kept it simple.
For this reason, you won't be seeing social unrest or any kind of response, besides the simple abandonement of a building that we have currently.
Secondly, if you were to attempt to implement a social engineering model to all Cims, it would have to apply to the base game as a whole and could not just be added on as a DLC.

There where a Cities sim with civil unrest, riots and so 5-6 years ago. Can't remeber the name of the sim. Combination of unemployment and/or high taxes lead to riots and you hade to set in speciel police forces.
