[I'm exploring new Atlantis and almost opened a mailbox to see if there's any magazines in it]

It wasn't a mailbox but it looks like one.

 

You don't need great graphics to make a great game. It runs on my GTX 970 but everything is set to low. Lol

 

 

[So this puma was patrolling the area near my dig mission. It attacked a Canadian. I wait]

Until it killed the Canadian. It turned it's back to me. I couldn't get a headshot but I couldn't wait for its hit points to regenerate. 

 

Shot it in the rear with my primitive bow and stone arrow, got my 3.5x stealth bonus. It suddenly realized I was there. I got one more shot off and abandoned my bow and swung with my club.

 

I think I hit it three times. Not sure. I was stunned, bleeding, and some bone was broken. Everything was red.

 

It died and one second later I bled to death. 

 

I think I won. 

 

[So, t here I was all alone in the woods....and a chicken.]

Good shooting. That's what I like about the bows, they take some skill.

I've lost so many chickens that way that I keep my eyes on it and ignore everything until I get to it. 

[Damn zombies better not go near my chickens]

This is the first new random gen since the b16 update and things are different

[Damn zombies better not go near my chickens]

I'm drinking rum and coke and starting a new world.

They were talking about revamping the armor with a20 and didn't get around to it. I thought you meant something was going to happen soon.

What are you wasting your glue on? drop rates for glue were increased. I find I have a surplus of it on the regular for crafting things like duct tape.

I haven't seen that much more glue than normal. I have started a new game and I might be seeing a little more with this one. There's a lot of variations in this game and there's always something you want you're short of.

[You are cold, find shelter]

Yeah, I'm cold because it's f****** raining. Life sucks doesn't it?

[WHY do? High Level weapons have WORSE range/projectile speed than lower level ones?!?]

This is my pet peeve for bows.

I made a quality level two primitive bow that did more damage than the quality level 3 bow and did more damage than the quality level 4 bow AND DID MORE damage than the quality level 5 bow. 

The quality level 5 bow only has two slots.

 

At least when I finally got to the wooden bow it did more damage and had better projectile velocity.

Water is worth more than gold now

Last I checked you could still drink from them.  Or were you thinking something else?

I can't, what version are you running?

[Are the infested mission rewards worth it?]

Whenever I get low on ammo I lockpick police cars. Usually get a pipe weapon I can scrap too.

[RGW only one trader?]

I've never had that problem. I've had the game say there was no trader nearby and it couldn't lead me to one. But that was like alpha 18 or 19 as I recall.

Yeah, it's horrible but easily modable at least.

 

I highly recommend "Less Rain" by Pahbi.

 

Or just edit your biomes.xml to your own prefs.

Thanks. It didn't make it go away entirely. I didn't want it to go away entirely. It rains every now and then which is just fine.

You did find the infested cache right? It´s an ammo chest and usually there is a LOT of ammo inside. Definitly worth it imo.

 

Also the more enemies the more honor (aka XP). Infested Navezgane Corrections is an adventure though. A fun one.

Yes I find the ammo chest. I use a crossbow and ammo's never a problem. Usually sell what I find in that.

Not really

 

T3 ammo chance

 

lootgroup name="groupReinforcedChestT3_01">

T3 Infested Loot crate

<lootgroup name="groupInfestedT3" count="all">
    <item group="groupAmmoMunitions" count="3"/>
    <item group="groupAmmoLarge" count="2"/>
</lootgroup>

So you are getting more ammo from the infested clear quests

 

Trader wise, they are the same except you get more XP and dukes from the  infested quest.  Trader rewards in general are already OP so you don't need to boost the infested ones really.

I don't pay any attention to the dukes or the XP. I got some exploding crossbow bolts from the last one I did. That's okay but not going to motivate me to choose an infested quest over a regular one. 

[Are the infested mission rewards worth it?]

It seems that all you get is an extra chance for the same sort of stuff you're looting anyway. 

 

The trader award isn't any different either.

Are players really having a hard time finding helmet light mods? After the first blood moon horde, I have a small handful from the mining helmets found in the dropped loot bags. But I also play with increased zombie counts on horde night, so that's definitely a contributor. More zombies = more chance of dropped loot bags.

Usually not a problem but this time the game is very stingy and it wasn't till I got my tier 3 quest reward.

Running out of stamina? You have your answer either way...

With the weighted head mod you're more likely to knock them down so you can back up and wait for stamina.

Well, you get whole 2 cloth per square meter of curtain; I know for a fact that my pockets are at least 100 square meters, each. Makes perfect sense

Now that you have put it in perspective, it does make perfect sense. The first home I bought was smaller than that.
