There's a good chance the logo will change again in the future. Companies need to keep themselves fresh! But we'll always keep a place for the original logo, as it's part of the Hinterland story.

I would love to see the shop offering the ingame coffee cup with the old logo!

I miss the old Hinterland Logo

I prefer closing the thread. The topic isn't that relevant from my point of view

I think that a forum (technically speaking) is an invention from the early 2000s and sadly, is outdated at this point. Nowadays it's easier to consume videos from content creators, who have the infos, maps, tips and tricks in a YouTube short/Twitch clip. No need to search it via a forum and filtering out the wrong results.

//edit: well, i missed the question a bit, so: I always hesitate to make accounts on websites, because i know i will visit them only a few times and it's not worth the effort for that to create an account. Also not worth the spam i get from them.

I registered here because TLD catched me within a split second and i knew this game is good. No, it's special. And i wanted to follow it more closely (what i usually never do) and wanted to bring myself actively in the development. As actively as you can as a forum member.

That was a long update video! Thank you Hinterland, the whole update looks amazing! To my surprise, the Immersion update catches me more than i expected 😱 And the region itself looks very interesting too.

Enjoy your holidays and i wish you all a safe and wonderful christmas time

Well the poisoned stuff isn't really something i'm exited about (especially when we have to load ourselfs up with new items to fight that), but i will play it of course. Travois and flask in one single update is surprising to me, but i don't complain. I want that! :D For me, the last thing i miss from TFTFT is the safehouse customization, looking forward to that. And i hope with the update we will have the option to disable glimmer fog for a new game, because there is nothing more annoying that this.

btw the signal void tale didn't start in my run, despite repairing the tower. Seems like a bug because it says i have to repair it first, but already did. I think there was a small update after TFTFT launched and i believe since then the tale isn't starting. Can that be?

Looking forward to the update, you added nice things!

That's good to hear. I had no chance for the white mug, the cranberry hoodie i was unsure about the fitting to my body. Too bad... Need to get PayPal until next year.

I hope you bring back the very old white coffee mug with the non-simplified red Hinterland Logo from the beginning years

have you read one of the dev diaries that came before this? Raph explains why they did it this way

They spend more time on the Tales from the Far Territory than first finishing Winter Mute Espiode 5 and even then we say we are busy with it, I don't believe it at all anymore

Can you imagine that those bugs might troubling Wintermute and future versions as well? It's important to fix them

Finally the travois, probably will become the best gear in the game

evil double post, i had to

Usually the weather in Airfiled Region is a joke, but this time i had luck

Same place but with better light this time

not the best light, but still something

I think a hand car would be interesting. Limited to the intact tracks, which is logical and balanced. But on the other hand i can see that HL don't want any fast travel options in the game, despite writing it on the roadmap many years ago. I'm kind of undecided

There are still little audio interruptions, i believe in constant intervals

I found a polaroid at the island cottage and when I arrived close to the vista location I had to climb a small wall of branches but after I did I got a audio glitch where it was the same footstep sound effect that could only be fixed if I walked on stone.

same here

from time to time i have sound interruptions. The sound (blizzard, wind, etc) stops for ~1 second and then comes back in. I believe this happens everytime when the game starts something new in the background, for example decides whether the wind shall blow heavier or less (but again, this is just an assumption on my part)

found a place where you can get trapped

Hm jo, ich muss sagen du hast da schon recht. Die Sprühfarbe benutze ich selber auch nicht (ausser, um mir nach Wochen der Abwesenheit auf der Karte anzeigen lassen zu können wo ich was eventuell nützliches gelassen habe. Kommt sehr selten vor). Die Weste hab ich noch nie gehabt, aber der Glimmerfog nervt mich auch tierisch -.- Bringt mir überhaupt nichts und kommt immer mit viel Nebel, sodass ich in Gebäuden gefangen bin. Kann man den wirklich nicht abstellen?

Feuermachen wird auch noch überarbeitet, bin ich zu 100% sicher. Beim Fischen weiß ich das gar nicht. Wurde das angeln mit der Schnur überarbeitet oder einfach nur dieses automatische Angelgerüst eingeführt? Wäre auf jedenfall gut wenn es da auch noch etwas deutlich anspruchsvolleres und detaillierteres geben wird.

Das du soviel Muni findest, kommt aber eher daher, dass du die Maps alle auswendig kennst und ganz genau weißt wo du suchen musst. Aus der Perspektive eines Neulings oder jemanden der nicht so oft spielt, mag die Menge gerade richtig sein, da sie sowieso nicht so viel davon finden. Hier würde ich an deiner Stelle benutzerdefiniert einstellen.

Ich kann HL dahingehend verstehen, dass sie - nach 8 Jahren kostenlosen Support - wieder Geld brauchen. Deswegen bringen sie TFTFT raus und müssen den Fans natürlich einiges bieten. Dass da eingie Dinge dabei sind die nicht jeden gefallen ist klar. Diese Fotokammern und Effekte die du nicht magst (mir sind sie auch egal) sind ja noch gar nicht released. Ist für einige bestimmt lustig und sie haben ja auch mit deutlich wichtigeren Dingen angefangen. Also ich find TFTFT gut, abgesehen von den ganzen bugs und Problemen.

Aber mit deiner Kritik an den Kernfeatures solltest du vllt mal einen eigenen Thread im englischen Teil des Forums machen. Die finde ich nämlich sehr gut begründet und würde ich auch unterschreiben. Und richtig vorgetragen werden sie beim Team auch auf Gehör stoßen

don't worry, i've criticized HL also quite some time. But that doesn't mean you aren't a fan can't enjoy their work overall It's not an oxymoron though

two threads? Well, two compliments then i guess: Great work Hinterland. What enlightens me is the small glimpse of colour you added to the cooking menu (as shown in the trailer). It really makes a difference

great news Hinterland

the tone of how things are being said is more impotant than the actual topic. Or in other words: the way how something has been said has a bigger effect than what has been said

Love your enemies. They show you your mistakes.

Thanks for the update. I think it was clear to everybody that things aren't going well, so nobody should be surprised. But it's still good to hear a few words on that, just to see that something is going on. I really hoped that 8-10 weeks were realistic this time, but shortly after that, my life decided that i don't need time to play either..

So, i'm sad that things aren't according to plan, but for me it's more important that the studio keeps it's character and can stay independent. Speaking for Survival mode, I've already received an awesome game and everything that comes after is "just" a bonus. So take your time and i wish you best of luck for the upcoming challenges

I want the old mug with the old Hinterland logo See here: https://thelongdark-archive.fandom.com/wiki/Coffee

btw @Admin while googeling for the link above, i found that other people seem to make money with unofficial Hinterland Merchandise. I may be mistaking, but it's worth mentioning: https://www.etsy.com/de/listing/934652257/der-lange-dunkle-becher-mit-dem-logo-der
