Rundown cities are back!

Rundown cities are back in the game and I can’t wait to play my post-apocaliptic save! Are you also jumping back to use the rundown? What kind of saves are you planning for it?

Are you going to put some rust on that vending machine? :+1:

It’s great that the rundown textures are back for those who want them, but I don’t really have much interest in a post-apocalyptic playthrough. I may use the slightly less extreme ‘grimy’ textures to create a crime-ridden, noir-style city.

Crime-ridden noir style city sounds exciting!

Yeah I wished furniture was affected by rundown also, I hope we get that in a future addition.

We need town karma controls back.

Set karma to absolute negative and watch burglars popping up everywhere to rob house and knock you cold.
Set it to high, and you can still enjoy the rundown town without issues.

It helps crafting a story.
But this is very good news regardless

It’s good news. But didn’t we also have deteriorated vegetation before, or am I mistaken? :thinking::thinking::thinking:

I don’t use rhem but I am happy they are back. It was something very unique to inZOI and it was a shame they got rid of it all of a sudden.

I hooe we get the karma control mentioned above by @samuriko. It would give so much opportunities for unique storytelling and gameplay.

100%. Would really help with creating my crime-ridden city!

It’s even better now if you join the beta testing, even the cars are covered in grime and rusty.

I’ve seen it! I hope in the future they extend the rundown look to all buildings, including active buildings and not just the deco building in the city. Currently, player made buildings look a bit out of place, too clean and shiny

Exactly! I wished they could be affected by the rundown effect too

Ugh, if there’s any skilled builder reading this: give us dilapidated houses and buildings in apocalypse style to add :eyes::folded_hands:
