I dont think that discovering new regions with radio towers is a good idea i like that we are able to gro freely from a region to another

Shure it would be a nice quality of life improvement I always have dozens of almost empty fuel canisters

Yea and no. I would love to see some visual upgrades for things like lighting that the public could do, but when you open that soon, next thing you know you see people hunting bears with M16s and laser rifles, moose replaced by Thomas the tank engine, and zombies running around.

I think sometimes it’s just best to let a game stay true to the vision. The mechanics built in work. They may not be perfect but they make the game work the way it does.

We have to keep in mind that even if mods exists you do not have to intall them you play as you like it just ads more possibilities

I think mods could give new perspectives for the game and open new possibilities.

Maybe a small plastic pouch or ziplock could be added to the game. it lets you pour snow in it and you can store that bag in the accessory slot of the clothes to start melting the snow with you body temperature. it would be at last resort and not very effective

One potential is to continue to make some game conditions more and more difficult over time instead of stopping at a certain point. For example if animal spawns were cut to 60% of their previous value every 15 days or whatever. So at 1, then 0.6, .36, .216, etc. Eventually you would starve to death from lack of food, but that offers a goal of getting as far as you can that can never be reached as you could never live forever.

Same thing could be done with temps, though the magic houses kinda make it not work very well.

that is a grat idea maybe you could activate an option where animals decays in every maps and never restore 

When i click on the new survey thing on the main page it tells me that I have already done it although its not true and I would really like to give my opinion about the future of the game is there a way I can do it "again" ?

A more simple yet palpable addition to endgame would be a more significant temperature drop starting from around day 200. Meaning you have to take measures to start preparing for the great cold before that. Preferably we would not be able to stay warm in certain caves and buildings anymore. 

its true that cold is a difficulty but the more you play on a single playtrough the less it becomes a problem with the warm clothes that we can find. Ill take the idea of @Syraith to mix it with yours. what if we needed to activate a radio towers in order to know aproximately when the big blizzard is comming. you would need to wait for an aurora to activate the towers and maybe it could be sustained in power by a battery so it can do its job even when the aurora is gone. after a couple of days when the battery is dead you are now able to collect the information and know when the blizzard is going to happen and how many days its should last.

would very much like to see the crafting ladder expanded. Meaning bearskin coat and moose-hide satchel is not the end. Instead you could use plenty of hides to craft larger tools. For instance, combining two bear hides and a couple of cured guts that you can twine around trees at your base to deter wolves from the area. Or you could combine 4 moose hides and 15 guts to craft an insulating floor for your fishing cabin, gaining a little warmth. 

I like this idea

Have you ever felt like we lack of long term objectives? usually the objectives are exploring every regions, finding a home, trying to craft every type of clothes and in about 100 - 150 days you can achieve all of that. then what is there left to do? repair your clothes? , repair your tools? harvest wood? hunt? yes, but for what? I think we absolutely need some more complex and fun objectives that are not like what we have seen before.

I always thaught it would be nice to have a region that is only accessible by a boat or a small raft. althought i really think it would be nice if we could actually do actions il the boat like repair clothes, make a small fire in a cooking pot or fish ( without the need of a hole ) 

Maybe the only way to get food on that island would be to take a small trip to the open sea and gather some fishes. or maybe birds and small plants that are unique to that region.

When you are too much time in the cold outside, your cornea can start to freeze and then you are blind until it unfreezes (i am not shure if it is reversible) so when the temperatures outside are really really cold we could start to get a blindness risk witch would not happen all the time outside and clothes like the balaclava could prevent this. or maybe a new accesory: ski glasses. it would protect the eyes from freezing.

What a nice journey! my favourite moment is when you show the day 480 thats inbteresting to see how many things we can gather during almost two years  nice continuation I hope for a video when you are going to achieve 1000 days good luck !

I think this is a very strange idea.  I don't know what to talk about with a stranger for 10 minutes. In addition, if this person is in a different language.

I think that this is the interesting part  

Finding ways to communicate etc

Like when you are awake in an aurora you get conected to anybody who is awake in an aurora too? thats so interesting i would like to try this  

Hi, i know for now the store is closed beacause of covid-19. But when it reopens i would really appreciate a metallic version for the mugs that you guys sell on the market. they are soo beautiful but I never drink coffee at my house  so I dont really see myself buying a mug and not using it  For me, a mug clipped on your hiking backpack is the most iconic thing you can have when going camping or bushcrafting and I cannot bring a ceramic mug in camping I would break it too quickly . 

Thanks

Female deer would be good. I like the idea of male deer being more rare and special with antler uses.

You mean males would be rare and we could craft things with their antlers?

@ajb1978 i think it should be more complicated than that. it will just be ankwark if you can just look at the cougar to stop him.

I agree with well rested and well hidrated these are good ideas but i dont think the other would be that useful or that much used. i dont think there would be many situations where we can see those happening.

I agree with @Themadlad94 the things you want to add would sound like another game if we were to see that in the long dark

I drew some inspiration from RDR2, but you can gut a bison in around 3 seconds so its not very accurate. The hides would be boosted in almost all categories, I.e. If I were to kill an epic moose and use the skin to make a cloak, then it would give me boosted protection and wind resistance too, so is more things to think about than just warmth.  

If we were making a sachel from and epic moose we could get 10kg instead of 5 huuh ? I hope  (The idea is not that bad after thinking about it, i just think it should not be top priority and they should test it as an event before. just to make shure its not innapropriate to the long dark)

Not to the level they do in this game. It's not just twigs, it's little bits of snow, hills that are slightly too steep, rocks that are too close together, little boards or pipes or other debris, etc. I think my biggest problem is that the character in this game is significantly less capable than myself and with no clear indication of where I can and cannot go I often find myself trying something and doubling back while thinking how easy getting around that obstacle would be in real life.

I think some of the problem may be that sometimes I can get over higher obstacles and sometimes I cannot. If I could never get over stuff higher than 2cm then I wouldn't try but it's just a roll of the dice for me. I dislike that.

Well i never had your problem...

I know this idea sounds far-fetched

I think it sounds more like Red dead redemption . however i dont think having beautiful clothes would be that interesting in this game. When you got a bunch of clothes, you dont need Extremely wharm clothes. however if they were lighter that would be interesting

Thats is true they are way too big too. Big trees like that should be rare.

The idea looks interesting it would be nice as a far region maybe the last region to have a road conected to? Upper north than mountain town or conected to pleasant valley ? 

Yes, if there is a road on that map it would make sense. but i am thinking more and more about it and on one side it makes more sense to have a road and on another side it makes more sense to make that region far away from civilisation.  I think that making buildings or camp in the cave make it interesting but i also think that a region with a cave system thats is that big should be far away and hardly accessible.
