Nuking your town

I have nuked my own town a couple/few times and my wife's town once. You really have to enjoy the building/designing process or as mentioned by devilhunt1449, some people have stopped playing or felt overwhelmed by how much stuff there is to place again.

With the "new" area select tool, you can easily rebuild without a massive interruption to your town. Also, little things like if you've place the few vehicles that were previously allowed on roads, that'll be gone.

If you're up for a challenge, nuking can be fun if you're completely bored with your current design.

Also, take pictures of designs you like. It'll help during the rebuild.

My inventory drives me nuts now. I can't imagine if everything was in there. :shock:
Much admiration for those who were brave enough to do their whole town!

ok sweet. Thanks. Was just worried I'd have one chance and screw it up. I normally just move things and put stuff in storage but it's always messy.

i've been saying that i was going to nuke my town after i got all the land and "x" event was done. towards the end of superheroes 2, my town got almost completely nuked through a glitch. i freaked out. ea was able to restore to a backup, but as mentioned above it was very overwhelming and i pretty much didn't play for the 5 days it took to resolve the issue.

Do krusty land first then think how much bigger SF is.

I can tell you, I'm in the process of rebuilding and I'm overwhelmed. Wish I never nuked.

I considered nuking, but I have 3 towns and knew I would never have the time to get them all redesigned again.
In the end I just stored areas and moved tings around to get them looking good.
Am I completely happy with the re designs...no, not completely, but it was all I could do with my spare time.
If you have plenty of free time, then give it a go. Doing Krustyland first, as suggested is a great idea :-)

I've been wanting them to add something like a nuke shield on the selection screen where you can select certain areas in your town that you like so when you go and nuke it they will remain untouched.

I mean technically that is the only reason why I haven't nuked my town yet because there are large and complex places in my town like Burns' estate that would be a hassle to reconstruct if I had everything placed in the inventory.

That and the lack of a major zoom out feature.

I've only done it once, with my second account which I don't even play much anymore. My second account is just a backup. But I did it on there and I regretted it actually. I'll never do it again. With that awesome tool they gave us to move multiple objects you can also add all those items you selected and put them in storage. So, with that in mind you can do it your self bits and pieces. I agree, maybe doing KL first to test it out. Good luck mate

There's no point in doing it anymore because of the area select tool. If you have Excellence prize statues you will only be able to take one out of inventory. That goes for everything they've made into a unique item.
