ghettochild2600 Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Start a new game and on day 1 game stage 8 and right off the bat we've already had 6 screamers. This is on vanilla settings fyi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghettochild2600 Posted January 19, 2019 Author Share Posted January 19, 2019 You're not lighting everything up with torches are you? Nope. About 10 mins into the game placed a land claim block and started putting up some wooden frames. After about 5 min they started coming 2-3 at a time, and had a total of 6. Two out of the 6 got a scream off and had to kill about 15 Zs. If I remember correctly in the spawning.xml it should only be 1 screamer at a time. I've noticed a lot of screamers spawning as well in other games now that I think about it. In groups of two or 3 at a time. Is this normal? No camp fires down either.

Royal Deluxe Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 The new is that screamer can summon screamer. I love and hate it ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghettochild2600 Posted January 19, 2019 Author Share Posted January 19, 2019 Ah, maybe that's what's going on then. The additional xp is nice, but I know people who abuse the screamers to level up faster. Maybe I can figure out a way where they only come out at night at least.

Ghostlight Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Still I have never seen a Screamer on day 1 in 2000 hours of this game. In fact I don't think I have ever seen one come until I had at least a Forge going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter if night or day. Besides that its balanced by ammo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuckyStar Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Yeah farming Screamers is fun. Doesn't take much to end them if you get a few too many either. Spikes .... go hide... end of round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
