Boston123 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 i was hoping nobody would reply to this Why, because the game is "perfect"? Cannot be improved in any way?Nothing is perfect. 1) Item degradation, that leads to in-game behavior that is completely asinine (aka don't search containers until you need them , because whatever gets touch decays)2) Tool repair3) simplistic AI, that effectively gives you an exploit (drop decoy, shoot wolf in head) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

druffzilla Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Item degradation out of whackWhat does that mean?I also thing item degradation as it is now sucks and is one of the biggest flaws in the current gameplay but decay is real, everywhere and everytime, it should just start in the beginning of the game and not once you pick something up...

Canned goods have a shelf life $&*% near eternity. Meats are fine tho there should be a longer life if left in a refrigerated environment, like hung in a tree.There ought to be a whet stone in the game to resharpen tools, rather than have them degrade to nothing but scrap. My Case hunting knife is almost 40 years old and going strong, though needs a good honing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VanIsleMan Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 I also dislike the decay rates most, though having to eat multi-kilograms of meat everyday is also out of balance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LucidFugue Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 No escalation of threat. (i.e. the danger you face never really changes between day 1 and day 30, just your equipment and skills making more options viable) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LinieBurrito456 Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 There is too much loot.+1I can also agree at this.I would prefer a level like pilgrim who you really have to fight for your live without attack from animals.I mean hard survival to find cloth and food, so you really have to hunt and craft your things. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boss Llama Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Degradation is basically just wrong.In the interest of providing actually useful feedback, I'll say a bit more than that. The degradation rates of nearly everything but fresh food is so accelerated it's comical. Tools that would last decades of use are damaged like they're made of papier-mâché, clothing disintegrates like its acetate-silk from Brave New World, and canned goods and preserved foods go bad so fast that humanity never would have bothered canning or preserving in the first place . I can't in good conscience agree with the folks saying there is too much loot when none of the loot is durable. If it lasted like it should, I'd be more onboard with limiting its availability. Interestingly though, the devs have already created a world with massively less loot than one would expect to find in the scenario, and I admit it can be frustrating for the realist in me to explore cabinet after cabinet, or workshop after workshop, and find absolutely nothing. Real homes and businesses are chock-full of clothing, tools, and items that would be useful in an apocalypse, and I'm willing to bet you could live for at least a week or two on the dry goods and canned foods found in the average home, even if it wasn't traditional meals or things you especially liked. We're talking about a "Yay, dog food!" scenario - we'd certainly be willing to eat that old can of creamed corn too. Frankly, I think a "real world" version of this scenario would have such ample opportunity for scavenging that a person wouldn't bother gathering all the food and equipment they found until quite a long ways in to the situation. Heck, there's as much warm winter clothing in the bedroom closets of my suburban temperate-zone apartment as I've found in any complete map of the game. I realize that makes for less engaging gameplay, so I'm totally ok with the limits imposed as is, but it does tickle the back of my mind every time yet another container in a recently-occupied space is found empty, and especially when people call for less loot to be present.
