Another problem about missions: once you unlock missions level 5, missions of low level become less optional. For example, the trader near me have now 4 missions level 5 and just one level 3. And sometimes I want do low level missions for stuff like ammo, books, recipes or just because I dont have enough ammo to do a level 5 mission. It's not the gas i am after, it's mechanical parts and oil. I need another chem station, i have like 200 minutes worth of gunpowder cooking in my current one, and i only run it when i am at home. that would speed up my oil production. Granted, once you run a bulk amount, you never have to run it again. but i also need engines for generators. I have a hamburger bunker surrounded by blade traps. as a horde base. Most of horde night is just siting comfy passively gathering xp from the meat grinding. occasionally i need to shoot something. My next horde base design will be a similar bunker in the middle, but with a ceiling AND floor blade traps. Link to post Share on other sites

SenpaiThatIngnoresYou 20 Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 It's this one. Instead of the iron spike traps, it's a field of steel with blade traps above it. The caveat is that under the field of steel, is an underground section that houses the generators for the blade traps. The blade traps are placed atop an arrow slit, so that i can maintain them from underground. Very useful as i can repair them while they run, and every solid block on top gets a plate under neath it, so it is technically two steel blocks thick. I put a punch turret on top, to deal with vultures. It hits them, as i see them get knocked straight to the ground every horde night. The main weakness of the hamburger base is it is too short, the slants do not keep the zombies off anymore. So when these get destroyed i replace them with a solid block followed by a plate on the outside. Underneath the main bunker, is an escape tunnel, so should the bunker fail, i can escape down into a concrete corridor and have an epic last stand there. the tunnel connects to my main base. The big caveat, is that there is an epic hollow chamber under my main base where i found a giant node of:iron, nitrate, lead, and coal. I am turning that into a giant concrete chamber, and the walls around my main base are topped with solar powered smg turrets so that i am not bothered by screamers while i run my wall of forges and chem station. When finished the chamber will be turned into steel, and serve as yet another last stand place, though i doubt i will need it. Pictures will be forthcoming soon. Link to post Share on other sites

No, i am not jawoodle. However his base building has taught me quite a bit about the game. I copy and modify his ideas a lot. Link to post Share on other sites

That's some junk right there. no wonder my last play through was so easy, i maxed out better barter and just bought the good stuff out of the special stash when it came up. Things would not be so bad if the tier 5 quests did not dominate the quest list. It's almost as if you are better off not progressing at all. Link to post Share on other sites
Kalen 483 Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 I would much rather see tier 5 quests have awesome rewards, but not be available every day. That way, when you see one available, you'll definitely want to do it. Link to post Share on other sites

That way, when you see one available, you'll definitely want to do it. The problem with this (and with T5 quests in general) is just that there isn't high-enough tier loot that exists to be considered "awesome" by the point you can handle tier 5 quests. The game runs out of items to progress through by T4 (and T4 already has some repeats), so T5 has mostly the same rewards but you get more of them sometimes, or a higher level sometimes. I don't think this issue is fixable until the late game is more developed, because there literally just is nothing T5 quests can give that makes them worth doing at that point. An idea could be to have items that can only be obtained via T5 quests, but I have a feeling people would find that really obnoxious (especially if for some reason TFP locked existing items this way instead of adding new ones) Link to post Share on other sites

If T5 quests always awarded quality 6 items it would be much better than what it currently awards, and for me anyway, be worth doing. Link to post Share on other sites

My problem is not the rarity of quality 6 stuff, my problem are the low tier reward showing as a option like 1 antibiotic, Nail Gun, 5 First Aid Bandages... 20 hours ago, SenpaiThatIngnoresYou said: What the hell?

The rarity of lower level quests after I liberated T5. Link to post Share on other sites

pApA^LeGBa 231 Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 I finally got to T5 quests with my latest save and the first two gave me a T6 Steel club and a T6 Swat helmet. Let´s see how this goes on. Link to post Share on other sites

RipClaw 310 Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 You wouldn't want to believe it. I completed a lot of T5 quests to get a Q6 Auger as a reward but no luck so far. Yesterday I accepted a T1 quest just for a change and there it was. I found it in a destroyed workbench. This is the proof that the game trolls me. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
