It has everything a survivor would need food wise, with plenty of fishing locations, bear, deer, wolves, and a moose spawn. My one issue with CH is that there is no good way to sleep off cabin fever w/o the need of keeping a fire going. Forge issues aside, I would probably pick Ash Canyon. On the upper level, you got deer and a bear, but no wolves. Foreman's Retreat is literally a vacation spot. -t Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd keep pleasant valley but remove some of the bare fields around the farm and add some birch trees maybe another small lake or pond. I'd like a small forge near the town too. So how to answer this question? If I only had 1 map and no changes allowed? Because that makes a big difference. 1 map on interloper? Or one map where firearms can spawn? That’s makes a huge difference? Or just which map do I like the most and what to tweak? 1 map on interloper without changes would be either DP or BR. Need the forge to succeed BR has the sweet hunting lodge, but no where to fish which stinks. 1 map on stalker without changes would be the prison. What did we agree on for the name, BLK? I can’t remember the other post…… 1 map I could change? Ash canyon. I love the climbing but it’s pretty devoid of anything useful. Once your in the upper levels the trees are growing and it’s gorgeous. If HNTRLND would outfit the mine or mining camp with a forge and ammo bench, and add a fishing hut next to the cabin in the valley….. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, probably not though lol But if I could pick two unaltered and adjoining maps - BI and FM. Those two maps have access to everything.

Maybe a cross between desolation and Milton maybe? Kind of like a big fishing town? Sounds reasonable, or BI style with a town. But through the story mode I’ve gotten more of a military feel. Like how Honolulu has a military base next to the city. It’ll have to be coastal with a military/industrial feel and maybe base housing style residences. Mills?? Is it a lumber mill with a radio tower?? Either way, I’m chomping at the bit for episode 5 and the final update! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that's probably what was in the back of my mind when I said fishing town. But I can see where you're coming from with a military base. I would've thought though that if it was then they'd have had the means to get to the mainland?🤔 Intriguing though isn't it?🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But remember, just like Honolulu the means to the mainland is by sea or air. Not necessarily a hard top road. That’s part of what makes it a strategic location. And we’ve been given hints that the Mills was insulated from the electromagnetic disturbance. And that possibly PM is where the disturbance originated. “Wintermute” being the code word Jeremiah told McKenzie to use when he found Atwood in PM. And McKenzie questions Jeremiah multiple times about his military knowledge, with Jeremiah being extremely evasive… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And in Episode 4 doesn't Jace refer to her mentor as Dr. Atwood? And supossedly they worked at an observatory together? Correct me if I am wrong. It's obviously been a while since I played story mode, I could be remembering the dialoge incorrectly. So if that's the case, would it be possible that the town of PM is actually home to an telescopic observatory complex? I would be curious how a town would be designed around something like that.

I believe you are correct on both counts. That being said, government researchers working in conjunction with military is nothing uncommon; as to the location…. Look up the Gemini Observatory (NSF) on the big island of Hawaii, that would be a good visual for a govt funded array and proximity to civilization. Or even closer to home, the HAARP array in Alaska near Glenallen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As to seeing what a town might look like being built around such structures from Hinterland's perspective, I think it would really be interesting dont you think? I think I'd enjoy exploring and looting an old observatory and "town" that supported and hosted the scientists that worked there. Could make for a great base camp too! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m going to have to try and find some artwork along those lines…. Currently BLK is my favorite stomping ground and the extensive transition zone adds quite a bit of depth to the experience. Perhaps they will be adding an extensive transition to the final map as well. Side bar- I got the impression from the last episode that PM is directly tied to the Aurora through an experiment gone wrong. Any insights? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any insights? I've heard rumors to that effect myself. Unfortunately can't confirm those rumblings to be true, however it does embody the possiblity of such a series of events. btw, have you ever heard or seen the TV series called "Revolution?" It came out about 10 years ago and lasted two seasons before it got cancelled, but the show was about an unknown event caused all electricity to stop working, plunging the world back into the dark ages. It was a good premise at first but some poor plot lines development by the writers lead the series in the wrong direction and NBC pulled the plug on the show. I was a fun watch, you might wanna check it out. if wanna know what happens but dont wanna take time to watch the show, I left you a spoiler... turns out scientists of the military industrial complex had invented nano-robot tech weapons designed to be used to disrupt enemy power stations, grids and devices. Their simple program was to blame, consume electricty and replicate. The nanobots were very effective in that way and eventually had replicated to a point that the nanobots had consumed all electricity on the planet. They of course became sentient after some time and abandoned humanity to it's fate... iirc 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
