  1. Not true at all. I've taken older long term survivors into brand new regions that were added, like Blackrock....and there was plenty of stuff that was just fine. that was Day 165 of a Stalker run BTW.
  2. Hinterland did say that you can have very lucky runs, and very bad runs- and you can also have normal runs. I'd say that for Forsake Airfield you had a very bad roll- because generally I have found one of everything.
  3. The missing tool container is the same across all difficulty levels (except maybe Pilgrim) It think it's very much intended. Hinterland did say that tools would not be as plentiful and I think this is part of that. I for one like the challenge.
  4. Oh...I did forget Improvised Crampons have been added! I knew there was at least one thing I forgot.
  5. We paid for a Year's worth of Updates. What we got in the first drop was: New Travel Region New Hub Region (Transfer Pass) Forsaken Airfield Region 10 minutes of Survival Music Glimmer Fog Insomnia (Affliction) Doe 5 Variants (3 Rifles, 1 Lantern, 1 Bow) Complete Loot Refresh. Player Spawn Refresh It was all listed, though not in the clearest way, in the Release Video.
  6. I tried placing a Snow Shelter out in the Glimmer Fog near Watchful Cabin... It can certainly get up there. And the Snow Shelter did jack all for my insomnia risk.
  7. I would be surprised if they didn't. Seeing as how by their addition in the Hangar Basement they appear to want to make it possible to have long term runs that can remain in the Far Territory for as long as a player wishes. Industrial Mine would seem like a logical location for an Ammunition Bench.
  8. If you do go to HRV and find the new bow...don't use it until you get to Level 4. It is irreparable right now...so if you use it before you reach level 3 you'll get a total of 100 shots with it. If you use it after Level 4 you'll double that to 200. Could it be made repairable eventually, sure...maybe they'll add a master workbench.
  9. Not many people know this...but you can get in a regular wolf struggle with a Timberwolf...and should you survive it (and I have) the pack morale drops by 2/3rds. I honestly wish it happened more often. Also cannot wait for the Cougar!
  10. None of the Variants actually spawn in FA AFAIK. They all spawn in the pre DLC regions.
  11. The variant rifles will not align with any weapon racks.
  12. I'm also concurrently editing mt first TFTFT LP as well. And I have a job.
  13. If anyone ever said: "A picture cannot show you how cold it is." I would show them this picture- especially if the sun is rising...then no shadow of a doubt it is COLD!
  14. This is still consistently amazing. I'm still editing,
  15. 'Loper... There's your problem! I play Loper too from time to time but I'm relaxing playing Voyageur aka Normal on my current run.
  16. I like moody shots like these...and a great story. My fireplace picture a few up came out of me trying to make Mindful Cabin in a Blizzard. (I missed the turn). So I was running along the road...thinking I was close but being way off when I saw the fence surrounding the rubble...and then I remembered the rubble held a fireplace. Totally saved my life.
  17. On my current run I abandoned looking for it...but I do know that it spawns in Ash Canyon. I just didn't look around the upper levels near the Mine Rope and the plateau outside the Mine entrance to find it.
  18. The 3rd Rifle is called Curator's and it is in the same Region at the Technical Backpack...somewhere.
  19. You have to travel there first friend. So it's off Broken Railroad but I would suggest playing your game as a regular sandbox and getting there eventually since all the loot has changed...all the playe spawn have changed and all the New Item variants are spread throughout the game world. Also surviving in the Far Territory with just what you find in Broken RR and well the Far Territory is difficult on the first attempt. Good luck!
  20. I killed a moose in the Cove outside the Cottage just the other day...and a Black Bear the day before that. There's a lot of wildlife...there is just a 3 times the size of PV amount of space for them to live in.
  21. Nice...also the new meat textures for every kind of meat are also juicy, gross and disgusting.
  22. That's awesome, I'm glad I could bring peace of mind and clarity to the situation- I hope you enjoy the DLC. Speaking of that, please remember, that the whole thing is being released across the year with 5 Updates 8-10 weeks apart. I am hoping this is made clearer on the Expansion page if not now...after the New Year. So people can see what update one has added and perhaps what is planned for Update 2.
  23. It could be referring to the corpse that is always on the newly fixed bridge to the new transition- and marking the new transition at the same time.
  24. I 100 percent agree with this. I just think certain people are blowing this out of all proportion to reality. I was working when the update went live...and yes I know it went roughly...but it was fixed within an hour or two and we've been playing since then. I've been through other games in the past that have bolloxed major updates...was it annoying, you betcha...was I saying- "That's the LAST STRAW I will never trust them again ever, and neither should all the other fans that have devoted so much time to this game!" No- of course not. Will the next release be better...absolutely.
