Weather update ideas


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

As a wise man once said! "Enough talk" 

 

-More noticeable heat waves and cold fronts! (Brighter and warmer for heat, darker and more blue for cold) 

 

-Zombies get buffed depending on biome. 

-Deserts get less debuffs

-Snow lowers damage resistance (cuz frostbite) 

-Wasteland naturally healing, damage resistance and less debuffs (cuz the Radation)

 

Weather effects harm you alot more and work as a %. Even with good gear eventually you will need to rest from the weather. Along with the defects 

 

Critical damage effects from weather. 

 

-Frozebite: lowers your damage resistance and lower max hp by 10 and slows you down and your attack speed. . Cure: rest near campfire. Temp cure.  Soups and stews. 

 

-Heatstroke: increase stamina useage, lowers damage resistance and blurs vision Cuts stamina by 10 And puking (lost of food and water) Cure: shade and cool drinks. 

 

-Radation sickness: Lowers your max hp and stamina but % of your Radation.  Tiers of it add worst effects like

-lowers movement speed, lower DR, Less damage, puking (losing food and water). 

Cure: rest outside of rads, go inside. And anti rad pills. 

 

-Water: most water has Radation. So Don't be swimming around in that nasty stuff. 

 

-Rain storms increase spawns of zombies and thunder storms they treat it like its night (so all zombies run)

 

Fog: increase zombie spawns but also wildlife spawns. Spider and screamer zombies spawn in the fog. 

 

-Blood fog: fog that's a bloody color! Acts like a mini blood moon. And spawns zombies around you. They move the same as whatever time it is tho. So at the Day! They walk. Night they run! 

 

-Radioactive rain storm: rain with a light green tint. Adds a small amount of rads and heals zombies! 

 

-Dust storms: wear good gear and you will be safe! If not the wind will hurt you a little and weaken you. Found in the desert and Wasteland. 

 

Drinkable Water: some what you find is both Radioactive and dirty. The only cure in a cem bench and anti Radation drugs. If you uses the water filter. You get clean water but still get rads. 

 

Some food like rotten meat have hints of Radation

 

 

Anti rad meds: 

-Normal removes rad but also removes food and water!

Adam you are about to stir up some "". But I see the potential, if it is smooth this time.

Before it was just angry. If the cities were set on a 3d terrain , it could use the altitude for shifts.

On a flat terrain, it may be harder. I think they are testing new mechanics to reincorporate it now

per biome.

After @faatalmade a post about weather I wanted to add on to make biomes special 

 

 

Pine forest: aka the forest now

-thorny bush's, wild crops, cactus and has the most diverse animal spawn, with almost every animal (coyotes, wolfs, bears, cougars, deer, pigs etc) 

-more diversity in plant life like birch trees colorful plants in a few dead trees and logs on the ground. 

-crawlers and lumberjacks have chances of spawning in the wild 

-flat grassland areas have dry grass and small trees like the plans 

-night has a small chance to spawn feral spider zombies

 

Burnt forest:

 

-Feral crawlers will spawn along with 

-Burnt zombies are stronger and have natural damage resistance due to the burntness. Acting as a shell

Few new zombies. 

 

-Hell hound: a zombie dog that's on fire! Even faster then normal zombie dog 

 

-Burning zombie: (different from burnt ferals) always on fire and runs a tier higher then the base setting (so if you set them to sprint they will run at nightmare speed) they will deal bonus structure damage and instantly set you on fire 

 

-Fallen firefighter: a fallen first Responder! Armored has a gas tank if you hit it it will explode into a firey blaze. Had the same hp as a lumberjack but had 20 armor and is immune to fire, and electricity. 

 

Biome itself:

-hotter then forest and embers are much more active Now so keep your boots on

-Slag piles, piles of melted Slag has a chance to harvest brass, forged Iron and raw iron. Even valuable minerals like silver

-Burning coals underground so mining underground could be dangerous 

-More hostile wildlife including zombie dogs and hell hounds. 

 

 

Desert: 

-Dust storms that lowers your vision and if your naked it started hurting you.

Has a chance to strike on the ground

-Colder at night and even hotter now

Snow:

-Bizzards and snow storms are even harsher
