Following a NUCLEAR DISASTER | Cities Skylines 2 | Abandoned City 3

[@andreiungureanu665]

Perhaps you could build a hospital with a few surounding houses/high density housing as a last stand base in the city. All these structures would have some sort of fencing (like park fencing since it was a hurried up process due to the chaos ) some police cruisers and military vehciles such as jeeps and tanks. The inspiration of this idea is from Dying light series and I think it would look amazing!

[@Comdroid66]

You could build a collapsed dam I collapsed because the virus made everyone leave

[@sheepiscool]

Lore idea: There is a biological testing lab somewhere in the town or in a neighbouring town. The lab itself isn't hidden, but what it works on is secret. This lab has slowly been expanding and doing more testing, and it uses a lot of power. As the town and the lab grew, the lab owners pushed for more electricity production and they partially funded the construction of the nuclear power plant. However, since they wanted to save as much money as possible, they used cheaper materials, which was why the explosion wasn't contained when the plant exploded during its testing. The lab was doing chemical and biological testing to produce a virus to use against enemy populations in war (the zombie virus), but because the lab was rushed and wanted to save costs, they cut safety measures, and the virus broke out before it was ready and infected the local people.

[@ThoughtfulDuck-r8h]

i dont usually watch entire episodes on cities skylines series-i normally skip to the end (i know, shameful). but this one, i am binge watching this rn like how i do with altengrad. i cant wait to see the outcome of this and the lore and ideas seem really cool so far

[@Federal_Investigation_Bureau]

I’m somewhat like you. I completely skipped the first 20 or so episodes of Altengrad. To be fair, Akruas was only building and setting the foundations for the series and I just wanted to get to the history.

[@ThoughtfulDuck-r8h]

Altengard is definitely an amazing series! I think it's probably the only Cities Skylines 1 series on KZbin that still has a steady audience.

[@o_m05]

Where I live in Australia, there was a mining town called Wittenoom established in the 1940s-50s. Unlike other mines, it mined blue asbestos, the worse variant due to being more fine than other asbestos variants. As a result of direct exposure, upwards of 3,000 or so miners, residents, and others died due to lung cancer over the years. The mine was shut down in 1966 due to 'unprofitability', and overtime residents slowly began to leave the town. As of 2007, it was de-listed as a town, removed from maps and road-signs, and as of 2022 there are no remaining residents. Perhaps some elements of this story can be used in your town as inspiration.

[@doubledonkey]

Absolutely a great sad story!

[@Z-gc2oe]

You should add police and fed cars blocking the roads into the power plant and have employee cars trapped inside the premises of the plant and have some of them go off road but getting sticker due to the terrain

[@elgendo87]

Really glad you used the green water because when I made that pack I almost cut it out 😂 As a fan of post apocalypse thematic I'm waiting to see what comes next!... Perhaps the townspeople were taken to a local stadium right after the disaster, where they were assisted by security forces and paramedics while preparations were made for evacuation, but everything went wrong. 😮

[@doubledonkey]

local stadium is a nice idea! by the way ~ I m planning something with the pink water as well~ hahaha~ for those great mods~

[@HJSCO1984]

Bro, build like an airport or a military base that would look very cool. I just really wanna see it happen.

[@JerseyAir]

Explanation for green water: after sitting still for a while, a film of green algae formed on the surface of the water

[@badraxs2920]

Adding to the idea of the plane crash isntead of taking down only the service tower it took down 2 towers, first an electrical tower which it cut right trough and clean, and secondly the cellphone tower which it didn't cut trough, it got stuck there, burning dangerously hanging from above, an accident waiting to happen, yet it's still there, burning. Also great series and the most original idea i've seen in a while 🎉

[@SoundGuideline]

Da reminds me of that falling airplane scene from Split Second. I think this game can provide inspiration for this build.

[@badraxs2920]

@Hungrydinoinyigo i might be no expert but who actually has satellite phones? I mean maybe some people may have but not the majority

[@justadingus]

Maybe a water treatment plant, lore: The water in this treatment plant had been poorly maintained, yet it still provided drinkable water, however, the nuclear disaster caused the water to become contaminated, and the employees got sick, and turned into zombies due to the toxic nature of the water. After not being contained for a long time, the water turned green and disgusting, many trees, and power lines, had fallen into this water treatment plants reservoir. This water was no longer safe to drink, making people extremely sick, or even turning them into zombies.

[@Jackilo_frangolo23]

You can also make a military camp with abandoned vehicles and various structures.

[@NotChoUncle]

Don’t forget about the irk city building tequniques! Use landmarks(such as this pileup) to connect to others across less-detailed zones and make a web of detail! It also helps with burnout.

[@iornboysgamingavengers2172]

At the center of the city there is a large office building were the shady company in control of the nuclear power plant, D co, decides corporate with the government to call in the military to make one last stand against the undead forces. It would give the city another Iconic landmark and could help with story telling. Or D co could have a large high security laboratory outside the city where the zombie virus started.

[@wutguycreations]

Great build! I think something interesting you could build is various small hideouts or "safer areas" around the city where people who haven't managed to escape but still survived have taken refuge - possibly in a large abandoned mall or something? I think seeing small homemade gardens nearby to establish the fact that they've resorted to growing their own food after being cut off could be an interesting concept. I also think an abandoned stadium would be very cool.

[@Hazzamoo17]

Abandoned airport would be AMAZING! all the planes piled up who was trying to escape when the zombie apocalypse started like WORLD WAR Z

[@Hazzamoo17]

@Hungrydinoinyigo no I was thinking more a line of planes in a queue down the runway like world war z not necessarily waiting for permission to takeoff but kind of taking there own initiative

[@DesertDrifterYT]

I probably think that for the next episode you can build an abandoned urban center with run-down shops and restaurants and a park where all the trees died, and the lake is polluted, and also a survivor's camp near the urban center (where the buildings are well maintained, and a few farms with a steady supply of food, and a clean lake for water) I think this would look great in the city!

[@Pantoran_Cargo_Pilot]

Maybe a bus driver contracted the virus and turned into a zombie behind the wheel, causing his bus to smash through some railings and hang off the edge of a cliff, Italian Job style.

[@crossingsled4860]

Back at the overpass, maybe include some vehicles/trucks that have fallen over the side of the overpass onto the motorway. Like maybe a truck carrying dangerous cargo or supplies where the vehicle itself is on the road below and the trailer is either leaning over the edge or has partially fallen with it. I feel that may add more mystery or sense of danger to what this truck driver was driving from for him to crash.

[@elliotripton2826]

i feel like a football stadium or a hospital used as a field hospital surrounded by beds for the injured citizens would be a cool idea and you could cover them with stretches

[@patrickbuisa3711]

25:28 the atmosphere is chef's kiss🤌

[@doubledonkey]

[@closer0000]

The reflective water looks great. Nice build dude

[@BossMan-yu1og]

Holy F%#&! Those cinematics at the end are next level! Bravo!!

[@doubledonkey]

[@liambrickell]

A quarantine facility or military evacuation zone would be cool, it would make more sense for the infection to have gotten further and further out of control gradually over time as apposed to suddenly, and eventually the outbreak just reached its peak and the emergency services couldnt contain it. For the military evac zone something like a port with military presence or even a ferry dock would make sense.

[@julianmontes6357]

I think in the next video you should build some sort of military/National Guard outpost or checkpoint. To show the military is taking action to try and contain the disaster a few day after it started. (I know there isn't any military stuff in Cities Skylines 2 but try your best.)

[@Leonerdus1]

You should build an abandoned industrial port! Maybe the city’s main export was gas or oil and they used a navigable river to export it to other cities!

[@nh0465]

So I have a bit of a suggestion as to the lore for the water / power plant. 1. Perhaps the power plant was already lacking on safety standards (like Chernobyl) and was behind on repairs due to corruption in the leadership structure, leading to further complications, as nuclear power is still much safer than most people think IRL. 2. Perhaps the green water color is due to a mutated algae that thrives on radiation. Edit: Also, I love the video style, you've earned a subscriber. Edit 2: After scrolling down and reading one of the comments, perhaps the algae was from earlier tests from the lab that user "sheepiscool" mentioned.

[@sheepiscool]

I love that idea

[@samuelfischman6949]

0:20 there's no such thing as a steam generator building. The steam generator is a component of the primary coolant system, and is almost always located inside the reactor building.

[@FlyingIrish]

It be cool to see a car park filled with body bags or a wall in the town filled with missing posters like in 28days later

[@liamtgreat]

(Lore) [SURVIVOR LOG 12] Hey, scavenger here. I recently explored a small suburb near the motel. The phone lines look intentionally cut, and there were some garden shears and a ladder sitting on the side of the road, so it's safe to say communications were sabotaged. Scavenger out.

[@nickpersonman5771]

i noticed you had some old tombstone props, which got me thinking about having a (now abandoned and ruined) cemetary somewhere nearby the nuclear plant, maybe because of the explosion and release of radiation the ground at the cemetary recieved such a high dose of radiation that it caused the people buried there to turn into stronger and more mutated zombies? it might be an interesting concept to explore

[@valyshknee4203]

i find it so awful zombies are not being done, had lots of hopes for this but people saying ''zombies are boring/overdone!!" ruined it (even though it isnt overdone at all in city skylines, its why i had high hopes for this series from a small channel), How the hell is the destruction/aftermath of a zombie outbreak more boring than a nuclear disaster where everyone can literally just leave like they did with Chernobyl and fukushima, you dont see any left behind cars there on the road from a traffic jam because everyone left with ease, no chaos at all, chernobyl right now as result is just a abandoned city thats entirely overgrown with trees, entirely empty, there is not much to see there but the square, ferris wheel and the plant itself. i mean with zombies you could've had survivor settlements, signs of struggle/looting, the traffic jams and the collisions on the highway as result of chaos would actually make sense as obviously everyone would be panicking to get away from flesh eating undead running after everyone, and best of all nobody has done zombies on this scale of detail before, thats why i had so much hope for this series because its the only one i could find that was actually planning to make a apocalyptic city, and not just a small area that looked apocalyptic for screenshots.

[@doubledonkey]

good point!~ thx man!

[@kneecaps4530]

A harbour would be cool, if possible. Ships would have been prevented leaving port, as there was a fear that the cargo may be contaminated by radiation, or due to many corrupt port officials letting refugees onto boats, who ended up being infected. Due to the boats being trapped, the boats may have rotted and sank, or out of desperation, may have tried to flee, but due to there being no power grid to keep lighthouses running at night, many fleeing boats had run ashore or crashed. The harbour now lies abandoned, or with sections taken over by bandits/civilians due to large open warehouses and abundance off manufacturing supplies in crates. A possible container wall could be built around one warehouse, that was fortified. A lack of emergency vehicles could show how the harbour was left to its own devices, as the police tried to keep the control on the highways and other important areas, while the military patrolled the harbour in an attempt to blockade the city

[@CashMoneyShorts08]

The hospital was rushed with hundreds, maybe even thousands of people when the outbreak first started, most patients showing signs ln infection. The workers tried to keep most people out so the infection wouldn’t spread inside but that just made it worse. While some infected made it in the the hospital the nuclear power plant exploded causing a small fire in the hospital since it was near the plant. Then all of the infected outside broke in leaving the doctors and others trapped on the hospital, a military helicopter flying nearby was plummeting through the sky because the pilot was infected, it then crashed into the hospital leaving it in ruins.

[@CashMoneyShorts08]

Hope you like this story with the hospital❤

[@doubledonkey]

Absolutely! a lot!

[@Henlo_matesmate]

Idea: The local police department once finding out about this virus set up a sanctuary for people to evacuate to, it was set up in a high class area, they used construction fences to block off a fair amount of the area, the police made this the head quarters for themselves, they welcomed everyone with open arms, sending out small squads to search for survivors, they started to work on setting up telecommunications with the outside world, but they were over run by zombies, with no other options they opted to making the biggest mansion (their main HQ, which was heavily fortified) their final stand, this battle lasted until they all ran out ammo, with no other option left they fought the zombies with anything they could find. the massacre could be seen by the fences being broken burnt down buildings and destroyed cars.

[@doubledonkey]

a kind-hearted story setting, nice!~

[@soweirdmish]

abandoned prison would be cool! there was a prison in walkin dead right? i forget

[@newyorkcentralsystemgames]

[@teallightROBLOX]

Hello , I have a suggestion for you : You can actually build a cyberpunk themed city area near the edge of your city where few people still live ( It can also be a last-stand base for the citizens ) . Around the city will be a wall with defences to stop anyone from entering , but there will be a gate which will be heavily guarded . ( You can go see Blackfox ( Now named ChoiGuard ) and Akruas’s videos to be inspired ) Inside the city , there could be a lot of futuristic technology ( e.x. Holograms ) and buildings , but we can also see some ruins that haven’t been rebuild yet . Note : Take this suggestion in consideration if your city is set around the year 2050 or later on , it is because it won’t make sense if you make this when your city is set around 2024 . Please reply after you read this as I worked hard on this please !

[@teallightROBLOX]

OHHHHHHHH MY GOD HE ACTUALLY TOOK IN THE SUGGESTION

[@GregorMocnik]

Idea for Fire Figthers at PowerPlant: When they arrived they tried thier best to stop the fire in the reactor, after 4 hours the reactor exploded and only a few men survived the surviving men were evecuated from the military and fled into another city after 3 years 80% of the surviving fire figthers died because of cancer. (I´m a real fire figther in austria and hope that something like this doesn´t happen irl) Guten Tag

[@doubledonkey]

Not sure if you’ve seen HBO’s Chernobyl, but in the show, those firefighters who went to put out the fire died way faster than you’d expect. I’m not sure if it’s exactly like that in real life, but if you're a firefighter, be extra careful with fires that have unknown causes!

[@N0bOdicar3s_aboutme]

Since you’re inspiring it off of Chernobyl, maybe you should add a giant thing of buses in a line in( of course crashed or out of commission) your future city (if you build one not just a small town) like the Prypiat evacuation while everyone else that didn’t get the message is already crashed on the highway

[@iftheshroudfits1148]

A really cool build could be a Walmart type mega store, you know tons of people would have gone to get supplies, same with hospitals, would have been overrun with injured or sick

[@HAWX34]

[@justadingus]

Maybe an abandoned shopping center, it would add an eerie vibe. A once busting shopping center filled with people now lies deserted

[@JCjn521B]

You can build a shopping mall near the downtown area. When people realized something bad happened, they all came to the mall to get supplies. Everyone started panicking because of all the chaos and an explosion happened due to a fire from the kitchen of a restaurant in the side of the mall. Most of the cars are still in the parking lot because of all the traffic. It now sits abandoned and plant-overgrown.

idea : a truck/rest stop on the highway that has turned into a abandoned settlement, the settlement formed when drivers in need for gas got stranded at the truckstop after gas had run out. the homes could be trucks, RVs and just cars. maybe some inprovised shelters. walls could be made with cars and semitrucks in combination with some existing fences. eventually the settlement got overrun by zombies and was abandoned by its inhabitants.

Are you using Lumina for your cinematic shots? I downloaded it and tried it but it was messing with my game saves so I had to uninstall it. Your cinematic shots look amazing. I would love a video from you explaining your cinematic techniques!

[@doubledonkey]

I used Lumina for color adjustments when I building things, then I use the game's built-in camera tool to do the cinematic scenes, However, everything Lumina can adjust can also be done with the in-game camera tool. They’re essentially the same thing. The difference is that the camera tool allows you to adjust other useful settings, like cloud and fog levels. I’m not really an expert on how to adjust all the settings properly. I mostly just go with the flow and tweak things randomly. Since the settings can’t be saved, if you asked me to recreate the same effect, I probably wouldn’t be able to do it...

Hey, random dude here that has done their own research into chernobyl, and can give a bit more insight into the reactor design. For those that do not know, the reactor, or RBMK-1000, were tipped with graphite, per standard RBMK-1000 design back in 1986, prior to the disaster. which slow down neutrons- and in turn- speed up the reaction inside the vessel, it is also thanks to the graphite that the RBMK-1000s had a Positive Steam Void Co-efficient, which does deserve a bit more explanation. The Enriched Fuel in a reactor, any reactor, can get pretty god damn hot. upwards to around maybe 1000 Celsius, but not hot enough to surpass it's melting point of 1130 Celsius. why is this relevant? well, it's because of how hot the rods get, there's immense amounts of steam building up around the fuel rods, causing the void co-efficient, usual reactors have Negative Steam Void Co-efficient, such as in BWR type reactors. however, thanks to the graphite, the Negative Steam Void became a Positive Steam Void Co-efficient inside the RBMK-1000s. there are a system, however, present to combat the steam voids: recirculation pumps, which are just as it sounds. pumps in the vessel to circulate water inside and around the reactor, which remove steam voids. in a BWR, this is a good thing, as it allows for more power from the reactor as the water is the coolant and neutron moderator, which allowing for more water around the rods means more reactivity. good! but it's the exact opposite for the RBMKs, their neutron moderator is the graphite, and the coolant was the water. leading to their positive steam void co-efficient, which was combated with the prior noted system, recirculation pumps. I'm not 100% with everything, and there's likely I've made a mistake somewhere, but for now- this is the best I can give to give a bit of an explanation of more in-depth of the reactor design faults.

An abandoned rail yard with a railway crossing with lots of long derailed trains and a railroad crossing crash

[@NKNdan]

An idea to add is that the City's Mayor wanted there to be a mass fallout shelter being built when the powerplant was in the works, but because the belief of Engineers, technicians, contractors and the C.E.O. stating that "The new plant would be foolproof and there was no need to worry about a meltdown ever happening". The Mayor continued to insist that they should be responsible. This created a conflict between bureaucracies and lawyers. As the Powerplant was near to completion the Mayor finally convinced them that to build it because the citizens protesting more and more as they started seeing the cooling towers being built (This could be one of the reasons of the faulty construction) so the company finally folded for the demands of the people and the Mayor they started to do the construction to the city a sense of peace of mind incase of a natural disaster that citizens have a place to escape to on the other side of town. But they were slow at it because of there belief. The tunneling did get underway but the steel plate and lead to be put up on the outside of the concrete walls was taking a toll with shipping by rail and ship. The materials to continue the shelter would have been on that train the derailed leading to mass exposure to people possibly getting lead poising. Also there could be a light rail system in the city and have a line that splits off from that and goes underground then surfaces back up at the site of the shelter that would be switch to in emergencies. The rail way was completed to the shelter so the supplies could be transfer station off the freight line to the shelter's light rail. The Meltdown happened within 2 years of operation and the only plan of escape was by road and everyone was mass panic as the sirens from the power plant were blaring.

[@doubledonkey]

what happened to the Mayor?

[@NKNdan]

@@doubledonkey I'm thinking that the Mayor and the family are actually safe. The Mayor's Uncle is a conspiracy theorist and Doomsday Prepper (This could be why the Mayor wasn't being taken seriously because of the Mayor's crazy uncle). The Uncle built an underground shelter for him and his entire family on there grandparents old farm that was left to him after there passing. The farm was already in disrepair before the disaster. But the old Semi truck with a flat bed and the tractor were both taken care of and running and he bought several shipping containers and put them under ground.
