    I think they already stated that this is not a farming simulator. And this probably means there won't be complicated mechanisms that mirror reality. There aren't either for mining (where is the air pump?), lockpicking or cooking.

     

    And I don't see a reason for removing it. Ignore it if you want, that is the equivalent of removal.

     

     

    Let's carry the logic of "it's not realistic" out to conclusion taking mining. If a person were to just take an auger and go to town on a hillside or a pit in the real world they'd quickly find out that they're getting more volume of material than they are cutting out. This is referred to "swell". If you aren't carting off the excess you're basically burying yourself.

    What?  No mention of going out for an acid trip?

     

    Spoiler

    It was college 1999. The snow was falling and me and my buddies had just dropped 2 hits each. We decided that while we waited we'd walk down to the Sheetz station and grab some sandwiches. We were poor college kids and back then Sheetz policy was you could order food before you paid for it. It took us so long in the store that the snow that was falling had piled up and somehow my dumb friend Tom had lost his shoes so we wrapped his feet in sandwich paper and walked back. It snowed 16" the first hour that night and the whole town was out sleigh riding in the streets or racing their 4x4s.

     

    I either had a good run of luck or loot stage 50 is some sort of breaking point. I found 6 sewing kits and 4 acid just doing my normal trash diving.

  3. Breaking a perfectly good loot container just doesn't seem right to me. Especially for a small chance at getting an acid. The loot respawns eventually. I'm more concerned with sewing kits anyway. I can't make any iron or steel armor because I can't find the damn things.

  4. I've been checking garbage the entire time. My observations are that they've added a bunch of building materials to the garbage loot and removed other stuff so it seems like its changed to me. I'm not big on diving into xml files for the loot lists so maybe someone can do a little confirming?

  5. I started about 200m away from a Trader Bob on a new A20 map. Loving the new world generation. The roads have ditches and culverts now! Didn't get much done my first day except the tutorial quest and setting up a hunker bunker for my first night. Did manage to find a cooking grill though which was nice. Spent too much time playing with the world gen so I'll be able to put in more days this evening. Pipe weapons look nice and I can't wait to get my hands on a lever action.

  6. I usually take a rank or two of Treasure Hunter early on. The treasure hunt quests disappear from the lists eventually but early game you can unearth quite a bit of them and they respawn their contents like anything else. I can mark the locations of all of them and keep coming back to them way after I respec out of the perk. It's not useless it just loses its usefulness fairly early.

  7. I'm fairly sure the laws for things like this say you don't need Applebee's permission to write a song about Applebee's. Now if you name your band Applebee's and open a restaurant named after your band you're probably in legal trouble.

     

    Also gonna leave this here:
