This game hates me, random luck has decreed that my finishing NW will be 2.5m NW lower due to this.

I still maintain earthquakes hold no real meaningful gameplay value, and is a frustrating game mechanic since you cannot mitigate it.

everyone else have earthquakes not only you.. Its just that no one posts and remember all the earthquakes they had.

Just because everyone gets earthquakes doesn't mean it is good.

Xin is a game designer, so makes perfect sense for him to talk about bad game design.

I get rocked every set too.

Is there a % of buildings that you can keep to avoid them? Or not anymore?

I think my argument still holds though. Its not about everyone getting earthquakes, it`s about an entire set being decided on who gets the most earthquakes which is based on luck.

How good would you feel if you've outplayed your competition the entire set only to get quaked 3 times in last 5-6 days and lose the set because of it... lame... maybe your closest competitor only got one, which could be a difference of 500,000,000 or 2M NW.

I don't get the utility of it, there is no strategizing around it either. Even if you argue that increasing your BPT to make it land goal + E (earth quakes) it still doesn't warrant it imo.

Of course, earthquakes are stupid. They are way too costly when you have high land, and don't really offer anything interesting or fun to the players.

An earthquake occurred destroying 706 buildings!

Its no longer worth it to rebuild them at this point of time. Do you guys drop these land to gain higher tech % or keep them to have a higher PM?

That is less NW drop than my earthquakes!

I suppose your 2 D-allies also suffered about 375k NW losses each (roughly 25% of your loss each), assuming that's what they sent.

there's only 2 person that might win it. the farmer or the techer. I would say the techer.

Last set he jumped on $90 goods, this set jumped on what? $125-135? That's a huge gap. So even with the better tech prices...
