Seriously!!

How often does a country get 2 earth quakes within 3 game yrs. I just recovered from my last one and finally climbing out of this one..seriously WTF..sorry guys yelling out loud...

Aftershock? Man that stinks!

i welcome earthquakes they add intrigue to the game

In all the years that I have played, I never worried about earthquakes. Do they really have serious impact?

Heck yeah they do, I had an earthquake effect all 7 countries I had at the time, and messed up like employment for like 5 real days.

Lol. Ouch

Earthquakes are concerning as corps get closed down if it's a 'big un'.

Same.

I had one in my first week of play . Didnt seem that bad , was several days before i worked out i had to create resources to help with the disaster . It took another day to to buy all the Relief Resources needed , by which time the worst was over . I was loosing several thousand pop a game day . I do think it was a mild one .lol . Like samsin i thougth it was a nice touch to the game .

I've never done those disaster relief thinggies either. :S

It cost me about 1T when all said and done on my first earthquake...I couldn't believe it..and then this second one cost me about 700B...and that isn't including the population I lost in value...yeah it creates a great surprise and strategy, but two withing 3 game yrs..lol...I hope it doesn't happen for awhile..just saying

"It cost me about 1T when all said and done on my first earthquake..." Devils halo

Can i point out, thats more than the cost of 2 million pop?!? Maybe you'd been better off just investing in more pop?

Who was it that had like earthquake after earthquake? lol Was it Smokester? (SirSmokesAlot) lol Y'all remember that?! ha ha ha ha I think over the course of my four years of actually playing I only ever had like 3 or 4. lol AND I BETTER NOT BE GETTING ANY NOW! ha ha ha

how could you possibly spend 1 trillion on earthquake relief

Samsin, in response to your question..I have no idea? When I checked my account after a few days, I noticed I was losing 60k pop a game month, and I was 1.2T in the hole. I was like WTF, so I had to investigate, my country stock all of a sudden was in the red. ( My country stock in a rare, rare, super rare occasion hits the red on certain products. I have my setting to insure I have surplus and enough supplies)it has been that way for at least 6 real months. My next step was to check my country news paper and sure enough BAM, earthquake...IDK, you guys tell me why all of a sudden my relief goes whack.

i'll tell you what has happened to me. i set up experimental supply units, that ran me out of ammo, and forced my county to immediate purchase of over priced goods... dropping me suddenly several T into the red...

i mean lesson learned, but could you imagine the harm you could do, if you figured out how do it?
