  1. at 35... you are definitely NOT old... never stop gaming !!
  2. I would agree with this...the reason why some interlopers find it easy is because they know the loot tables and know where everything is... this way it would be as hard as it is for those of us who can't remember where things are...
  3. hmmm... yes.. I wouldn't mind being able to make the Grey Mothers soup..
  4. just completing the REDUX story mode... this is my third time I think in total, 2 times pre-redux...I have completed Hank's Prepper storyline and I am about to enter the dam...but just noticed that its not showing as complete... I searched the bunker and took the note... what did I miss ?
  5. matches.... without them its usually a quick exit for my poor character
  6. I quite often move, change locations during blizzards as the wolves seem to go into hiding... I find it one of the safest times in game
  7. take my money now.... additional content in ANY form would be welcomed by me... I love this game
  8. You definitely aren't the only one... started a new survival...3 sprains the first day.... so encumbrance was NOT a factor My Second was a wrist sprain.. slight slope in Muskeg... bandaged and painkillers, took 2 steps...not kidding... another wrist sprain. Although I appreciate the new mechanic... I think it needs to be dialed back some
  9. @Raphael van Lierop just a quick question... will their be new trophies / achievements associated with redux epsiodes 1 and 2...and further to that...future episodes 3,4 and 5

    DAY 4 (spoilers)

    Just finished... Didn’t feel like sitting around on day 4.. and Steve was feeling a little peckish. He has been complaining I never get him anything but candy bars.. just nags on and on.. sometimes I wonder about him. He said he would clean the rifle while I was gone.. it’s never been used... I left him in charge and went out into the world... 2 arrows down in full wind, flare in hand, no arrows if I could catch a wind break.. lowest combined temp I witnessed was -26C air with -23C windchill. Outside in just your underwear your warmth goes from full to hypothermic in just 20 seconds.. don’t ask how I know. After visiting Trappers, the Lookout and the Camp Office.. and lighting warming fires, again...don’t ask.. I came away with just the one pie.. guess we are sharing.. Steve was displeased.. but it “wasn’t candy bars at least” he said.. I made us a couple coffee’s, he didn’t even cut the pie.. he’s just lazy. Thanks Hinterland for the fun, it has been a great couple days and I hope we can do something like this again soon. Thank you all for the conversation and sharing your experiences, I hope you all stick around to enjoy the challenges or just play out of your comfort zone.... oh and Steve says Hey

    DAY 4 (spoilers)

    It has to be.. or should be set up to get people out their comfort levels... similar to NOMAD... goals should be movement or collecting based. You are required to traverse to a different map daily.. . pick up this.... hindered by weather and wildlife

    DAY 4 (spoilers)

    I really hope we get the opportunity to do this again soon, but with some changes. Don't tell us what's coming... force us to plan for EVERYTHING !! ....then throw it all at us... even if it means running two event levels... one for the more experienced and another for casual gamers... hell I would play both.

    DAY 4 (spoilers)

    just -31C... that's kind of disappointing...I should breeze through tonight then and after my two hours explore. Looks like people were not driven from their homes after all... kinda disappointing, but great that it brought people together.. I hope we can have more events in the future, more often, that are more challenging
  14. This is the checklist I followed... might be overkill but it worked... it actually takes less time than you might think.

  15. from memory and all the time I spent living there in my 500 day run...Lake Overlook cave seemed to have a decent spawn rate for rabbits... not sure the calories would sustain a Deadman ... it's probably not as good as Trapper's but I would be willing to bet it's better than the ravine..
  16. quick question for anyone that is giving this a try using the official custom code 8MHI-/z8M-Dw+/-wSWm-bAAA .... is the time factor changed from 1X ? I think I am going to give this a go tonight and if I can make it more than 3 days I would consider it an outstanding success...
  17. I would be interested in giving this a whirl (writes down code)...but my lack of knowledge on loot tables and guaranteed spawns will result in many first day deaths
  18. Yeah some changes have been made I think for the better in regards to this.. porches are no longer safe as they shouldn't be.. the only place I have not noticed a change (thusfar) is at the Quonset... you can't tell me those two fuel pumps would keep out a wolf or bear
  19. Picture from Lake Overlook cave on the eve of my first 500 day run completion (Voyager). It was my intention to try and spend as much of it outdoors as possible and I think I did alright...hours indoors 4,364, hours outdoors 7,705...total hours rested outdoors 2,114.. or about 264 of the 500 nights.. all skills but rifle to level 5... as I hardly ever use it
  20. as a time objective this is pretty short... I am already well past this on my quest for the 500 day trophy... which is more than 16 months
  21. actually I prefer the forge in the Skeg to the one in the Riken.. and there are others that do as well.... its closer to my ML cave for starters.. but I wouldn't be opposed to more being added to the map...
  22. fish and steaks...can go straight in the pot to cook... this is also an easier method of cooking by clicking on the pot and selecting what you want in it... easier to avoid eating anything raw...
  23. veto... means to vote down.. so..... No.. not in this iteration of the game... Thankfully
