Kung Fu Geeks Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 so, i got the following event again and i always wondered about it 3/16/2008 4/15/2008 An unexpected drop in the price of oil per barrel has surprised your nation. Should you take action? Option 1: Build infrastructure within your nation to store the oil while it is cheap to buy. Citizen income -$2.00, Population happiness -2 Option 2: Buy surplus oil and release it directly to the public. Population happiness +3 No Response. Population happiness +1 Now i know the common answer is, duh take the +3 happiness. But my question is specifically about this part Option 1: Build infrastructure within your nation to store the oil while it is cheap to buy. Citizen income -$2.00, Does anybody know if option 1 actually drops the price of new infra? or if its just random text? If it does drop infra price, does anybody know by how much? And if nobody has ever picked option1 to find out, is it worth the penalty to find out considering I am pretty much overflowing with cash, and i can make it up with my next wonder?

Count Rupert Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 It is in fact flavor text. All the effects of any event are listed, there are no hidden benefits regardless of what the text may suggest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unbiased mod Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 nope, you can hope all you like, but nope, won't do anything to your nation beside what it tells it would do. closed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
