Laz Man Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 2 hours ago, stupid said: I finally got a chance to play A20, and damn there was a lot of work put into this. The new city prefabs look like actual city architecture, and everything fits together nicely. Clearing an entire town solo used to be easy, but I'll probably never be able to do that again with the size and complexity they offer now, which is cool. With how much content the game has, I think the trader missions could have a lot more variety, like destroying a radio tower, repairing a structure, refueling some generators, planting some food, or building and installing some turrets at the trader post. Maybe there could be some items which could only be obtained through trader missions. The one trope I'm not thrilled with are all of the surprise attacks behind every closet door, or trying to avoid the trigger which causes everything to wake up and fall from the ceiling at once, or other beginner traps. I would like to come across a regular building that seems empty, but is home to just one very nasty creature- so nasty that you would consider coming back later, or maybe using your construction skills to cordon off its paths with blocks and bars to give you an actual chance at killing it. Difficulty shouldn't be confined to turning every POI into a labyrinth. As fun as the dungeon POIs can be, we definitely want to add more remnants as well since those offer a different gameplay experience. The new restore power quest will most likely undergo some more gameplay improvements as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meganoth Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 12 hours ago, Survior said: That's a horrible idea, you kill an animal and you can't even fill your gut as it is. If you kill a bear you shouldn't have to worry about food for a couple of weeks. Sure, but then you also will see a bear once in 5 years. Food is supposed to be a struggle in the game. If one bear could generate food for weeks your food problems would be over by day 3. If you have problems with immersion, just assume most of the bear meat is unusable and you can only use the liver for cooking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MechanicalLens Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Currently the mutated zombie feels... slightly weak? To help rectify this I offer these two suggestions: 1. Buff its health a bit, perhaps similar to a feral cop, for instance. 2. Perhaps it should explode upon dying, dealing massive entity damage. Just one player's feedback.

There hasn't been coal ore in the desert outside of specific POI spawns since A17 Iirc. It's replaced with Oil Shale ore for that biome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because only someone who didn't grow up in a hunting family wouldn't know that a deer will feed a family of four ever day for a week at least, a bear.. I can't even imagine.. Also, outside of the summer time you can hang a deer carcass for several days without spoilage even without electricity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Counters to food spoilage could add more challenge: Refrigeration which would need power (Ether with a generator or moving near a POI with a completed "Restore Power" quest). It all completes a nice plot arc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoloPoPo Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 If you demand hardcore realism you should not play a game that includes zombies in the first place but rather switch to flight simulator or something. A bear gives you 50 meat which feeds your character for 1-3 days, depending on cooking skills and activities. That are a few hours of playtime where you don't have to worry about starving. Sounds good to me. HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FranticDan Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 I've noticed, when you attack a zombie, especially fast, their attack completely misses you, even if they are right up in your face. Is this intentional? I just watched a video from Games4Kickz, and he was stabbing a feral Moe with light knife attacks and all of Moe's attacks never connected.
