  1. And meanwhile a noname-crew from france made a whole Movie (animated remake of "white fang") within a few months without any excuses and with the same unity-graphics as TlD.
  2. Windows 7, cloud sync enabled My Keybindings always return to the default bindings after starting the game. I can change them to my needs ingame and it says "saving". While playing eveything works just fine. After closing TlD and starting again, the keys are set to default again and i have to change them again.
  3. i went to camp office and had about 90% - 95% health but was then killed by a wolf on the lake through the wall of a fishing hut 💀 At that point, i have to say that i was beginning to starve. That's why i went on the lake for cattails and then loot the houses.
  4. Oh yes please! I just survived 3 days in the deadman challenge, went to Furlon and then to Mystery Lake, startet a base at camp office, had about 95% health and was then killed by a wolf on the lake through the wall of a fishing hut
  5. Nevermind :) i have the markers. It's just that i didn't know that you can scroll through all maps because i never used the map :p
  6. I don't see the graves in my map. Is it a bug or am i just blind? I left the new map because i thought the first grave will be in FM, but there is no mapmarker either. I'm fine if there is no mapmarker at all and i would've have to find out where they are by my self - but the discription says something diffrent. Please help.
  7. Just post your output.log! There will be important informations why the game is crashing. At least you will know if it's the graphics card or your memory. My guess is, that something is wrong with the your graphics driver, too many programs running in the background, or the game is using your onboard card instead of the better one. I'd say it's the second point. Windows 10 is just too heavy and uses too much recources. I mean, playing games on a laptop is a joke anyway, but playing on an slow i5 + using win10? That's just speculations, please post your output.log.
  8. Looking foward to play the "deadman" challenge. The new map, i will play on pilgrim just to avoid the wolves. For me, i know already that timberwolves will be super annoying when i want to explore a new region.
  9. Hi there, no need to upgrade your PC or Windows (if it's only to play The Long Dark). Just download a lightweight Linux, install it to your machine and you are good. (Xubuntu, Lubuntu, Puppy Linux). The installers will install Linux automaticly as a second OS, so you can chose windows or Linux when booting (if not installed diffrently). I would: 1. Install Xubuntu, 2. install steam + TlD, 3. play and have fun. Most people that switched to Linux are doing this too, only that they mainly use Linux and for some specific applications windows. No need to invest money in something you don't really need!
  10. "ThePancakeLady" already said it, the way diabetes is displayed is, regarding your question, unrealistic. As a type 1 diabetic, you always have your insulin with you - on you and never in your luggage. If you don't have insulin it will take days or even weeks before you are in that situation - i mean, it's not like the survivor of the crash is eating all the time cakes and drinks coke you can actually regulate how fast your bloodsugar rises just by chosing what to eat (your body, liver, produces sugar by itself, therefore you will need to use insulin at some point - type 1) and you also can prolong it just by physical activity. Also, it'll take a very long time before someone wouldn't be able to walk - but after getting insulin just a few minutes to be fully recovered and ready to go. So in that sense, the moral question wouldn't occure here in reality. Just with the insulin you hauled from the crash, the survivor will be fine for a very long time (weeks, months). Normally he just would save the insulin and stretch it so he would have a high bloodsugar, but that's only dangerous over years, not immedeatly. That means, here it really is not dangererous and no moral question involved. With the insulin you gave him, he will survive for months (disregarding the other threats in that situation). It's something completly diffrent from Hobbs situation. Also, the "survial situation" actually is perfect for a diabetic because you are forced to eat very little, mostly without any sugar (protein - deer) and you are constantly burning high amounts of energy while surviving like a marathon sprinter. It's the opposite of sitting on the couch, watching tv and drinking coke So, there is no moral question here and absolutly no reason to ask the question of helping him or not. It's displayed like in the movie "con air". That's not how it works with diabetes. It's a very slow process and the reason why diabetics always use insulin after every meal is to keep the level of bloodsugar at a "normal" level constantly - but you don't die or even recognise it if your bloodsugar would be 3 times as high as normal.

    Well, the big fire infront of the community hall doesn't spend warmth (you don't get burned if you come to close - bug?) I just imgaine a very evil picture

    I somehow have the feeling, this thread gets hijacked 😟 Let me summarise and put it under a question: Is it (from a player perspective) good, enjoyful, meaningful to repeat a task for no reason, wthout any explanation , wthout beeing rewarded, not knowing why (the bigger picture-story) and in the same way as before? PS: If you say yes, then you get the assambly-line worker of the year medal. 😀 Although, he at least knows the bigger picture and gets rewarded, a little bit.
  13. Yes it's unrealistic because a classic phone transmitts the signal via electricity and therefore shouldn't work. But i'm fine that it still works within the game, also within it's inner logic of the Aurora-effect.That all phones ring and only those two use them (especially considering how valuable these phones in that situation would be), is on the other hand a whole diffrent story 😛

    To clarify: In generell, you can use mapmarkers in games to navigate and sometimes it also is the better choice (ego shooter for example). But that's just not TlD, and never has been. @tulkawen You are completly right, that it would be a nightmare playing the same Episode and just removing the mapmarker. But that actually tells you something about this Episode and not so much about using mapmarkers. It would be a nightmare because not only is there no creative way the search was implemented into the story via good storytelling, there is no storytelling in the first place. That's why i as a player can see immediatly why a mapmarker was implemented. That hurts the game and the immersion massivly. It's also very unnecessary because navigating by landmarks is one of the big strenths of TlD, a core feature that provides a huge level of immersion in combination with the beatiful maps alone.

    If i would take "only" the first trip to the crash with the reason to get the insulin and on your way back you carry a survivor and you have to face wolves - than this actually the good part of EP3. The changes to the mine were visually and gameplay wise also nice (cold water, electricity), but couldn't be enjoyed because you had to search 3 fuses (just because). Still no storyprogress, but in itself a short, enjoyable "quest". If you take away this "small" sequence, there is basicly nothing in EP3. I could imagine playing this as a challenge within survival mode, that would've been awesome. I just don't see it working in storymode because everything else you do, you experiencing is meaningless and boring, without any creativity. Sounds harsh, i know, but i've already played the whiteout challenge multible times in surival mode and also in EP1. I also already saved Jeremiah by bringing medicine and fulfilled the purpose of learning about the location of Hydro Dam. For me personally, EP3 is even a bigger desaster then EP1 in it's first release. And that's just really sad after all what happend over the years.
