Not so contaminated really - you'll get a 1500 micro-roentgen/h reading on the moss nearby (stay out), but it's safe to be on the platform - the platform and bumper cars have a 80-90 micro-roentgen/h radiation - pretty much less than the rest of the city - cheched in oct. 2008

I don't think the cops left something. The weapon control in the USSR was very tough, the policeman was responsible for every bullet in his gun.

I've heard this called "The Tree of Nations" too. It looked quite nice in some pre-disaster footage I have seen - a very fitting piece of artwork for a scientific town.

Radioactive dust settles unevenly. You could be perfectly safe outside the sarcophagus and succumb to a small spot of radiation miles and miles away.
Any place around here can be extremely radioactive. ALWAYS have a Geiger counter.
One second it can be reading nothing, the next it could read 500 r.

Enough S.T.A.L.K.E.R. and COD4 references. This is the real world.
Neither of those games are even remotely accurate. In COD4 you ran from the hotel (which is right next to the ferris wheel) all over town and only THEN got here.
It's just a game, get over it.
