Oh my! I found all the questions and frustrations on this topic all in the same place. yes yes yes, by all means, yes! I don't want to scroll gazillion items to reach the real food to be cooked! +1 to the suggestion: remember the last cooked item and pin them up at the top of the list. another one: why we cannot use our mouse wheel to scroll all these items? (we can use the wheel on the top-down menu to what to cook though) Remember the last tool used for the action. If I use my hands to tear down curtains, why do the first thing I see is the hunting knife every time I do it? Think about the click terror for 4 curtains to be torn one after the other.

There was a mod allowing you to place things in bundles and pick them up again with one click. I am not sure if its available though, But hey! if a modder can do it why do hinterland devs still ignore this?

I am 100% with you on how the old paper UI was gorgeous. Absolutely beautiful. Look at these: The current UI is not only ugly but also cumbersome. I think switching from the paper UI was the worst thing hinterland ever made.

+1 exactly my feelings

btw there is a mod to it. I believe it is called "Remove clutter"

good one

Hahhah!! Thats so true!

Having said Car, here goes another one "Not being able to look back seats from front seats in the car"

Almost guaranteed sprains when climbing even to the easiest hills

walking up to the wind? not being able to cross smoothly over the rails on ML? Will is talking and whining too much all the time? Interiors get dark way faster than outside? What is yours?

btw when collecting sticks, the info screen could be removed all together as it increases the grind and nothing more, clicking on a stick clearly indicates that we would like to pick it up, no need to ask every time.

Thanks but playing an earlier verson wouldnt be practical when considering so many improvements are made on game mechanics. I would love to see the old paper UI on the newest version of the game though.

A lot of people say that but as an OP I was referring to its looks rather than its functionality. Devs can perfectly implement paper ui with functional new radial menu and all together.

Well neither I nor any other player would go for an older version of the game for the sake of another UI. There are so many game mechanics change since then it simply wouldn't be practical. Besides I suggested not a separate versions of game, what I was referring is to make an "add-on" which would only change the ui of the game. I think it is easily doable.

Another tip for beginners : eat all stuff you need to eat before fulfilling your thirst. Most items increase thirst when you eat so I usually eat when my thirst bar is zero (red) and then drink water to fill It back. If you fulfill your thirst first, it will lower it when you eat again. So hunger first, thirst second.

Well, they can always release it as a DLC and people wanna buy it can buy it. I would happily pay for this wouldn't you?

I do miss the good old paper UI a lot. In its most recent form, the UI is too much modern to my liking. No backgrounds, no paper feeling. You are looking into an abyss. Look at these pictures of old versions:

I hate to hunt with bow. Deer run away and die on hill tops where I can not access and my arrow is gone. That is so frustrating for me. Not to mention, unless you are level 5, you can not crouch and shoot. Thats another hinderance.

Actually I do hunt deer pretty easily with revolver. If yo uare close enough and postioned yourself head on, single shot is enough to bring her down. Same with the wolves, if you can aim his head, he is instantly down (although when you aim they charge like crazy and you have to be very timely when to shoot)

of course not. What I am asking is do you really carry rifle and revolver? I for myself carry revolver as it usually has more ammo and 2.5kg lighter compared to rifle. Surely if you are out hunting for a bear you'd bring a rifle. you dont carry all items with you all the time do you?

do you still carry 4kg rifle once you found revolver? revolver seems to do a perfectly good job!

or Astrid burns less calories per day

exactly! I also thought Astrid has a lower calorie burn rate because women burns less calories in RL

oh also with the new cooking mechanic, you can light 2x campfires next to each other to utilize 4x cooking spots which doubles the production of your cooked food. although it does not conserve fuel as a 6x cooking spot oven, it does help in recovering lots of wasted time otherwise. (cooking 12-15 kg meat takes almost a day)

While Hunting rabbits, I use the following tactic to eliminate any scent and lure predetors: I kill one, break its neck and immediately go in to my inventory and drop them on the ground, then go after next one and kill it to drop it again. After getting all the rabbits in the area I collect them and head straight to my shelter. This allows me to hunt comfortably without attracting any wolves.
