    I can't build a compound bow till I have bows 39, and at day 20 I have bows 3. and I have to read one specific book over and over as the only way to increase my leveling on that and unlock those recipes. So at my current pace I should get bows 39 at...day 250? Am I missing something in how this stuff works or is leveled recipe locks terribly balanced? Back when I first played this on console, even with multiplayer I could only get near day 90 without getting bored and walking away from the game for a few months, are all these cool new features like robotics and cars only stuff I can get if I stick out for hundreds of hours of RNG grind to hopefully get enough of the right books?

    I would use compound bows too if they only had a scope mod. You're right, it takes too long to read enough books to build them before I get tired of the game and start a new one

  2. Went out hunting in the morning and probably found a deer after 30 seconds then a rabbit. That was all the meat I needed so went back to my base and found  another deer trying to break into my base. Or jump over it, I'm not sure.

     

    We should be chasing down chickens and clubbing them over the head like this game intended.

    In my single player world I gave up on bacon and eggs as an interim food because getting a farm going is so far off at the pace it unlocks at. I lived on grilled meat by putting one point into animal tracker to help find every last chickens and rabbit I could get (deer are pretty common at night now); one point into huntsman to get a little more meat per kill; and into cooking to reduce the grilled meat cost by one piece of meat - put more points into cooking and it's as little as three meat pieces per grilled meat. I mixed in some grilled corn once I could get it -- corn is pretty plentiful even if you don't farm it, and it does unlock relatively early. Worked well enough for me. 

    Putting a one point into Huntsman is not a bad idea. I did not do that but I did shoot a chicken. I had some corn but I don't recall being able to use it because I didn't have a grill. I looted some cornmeal, I could make cornbread.
