    Hunt birds

    That could be interesting, each bed having a sleep quality which can be changed by a number of factors.
  2. Too many buttons do the same thing. Having a button to interact with items would completely solve this and many other related issues. Unfortunately I don't think that's going to change. Maybe if they open up modding enough?
  3. Yes, I already know you think that. I just wanted to mention that the information was presented in a way that caused me to think it would not drain my health. If the devs are happy with that then that's fine, I know now. A minor change to the wording could make it objectively more clear for people who don't know though. I figured they may want to know for any new players.
  4. Just a minor thing I want to mention, the description on food poisoning says "you will get weaker until it's cured" or something similar. The reality is it drains your health, not your stamina or weight limit or anything. The one and only time I've gotten food poisoning I read that and wasn't horribly worried. I went to sleep and died from I think close to full health. I do play with sleeping health regen turned off so it's likely far far more deadly for me than 99% of other players but I really felt that the description was not accurate and the effect is not the same as real life. I just wasn't expecting it at all and a simple wording change could have let me know that sleeping would result in death.
  5. I would be shocked if there was loot there considering they actively discourage people from climbing around
  6. Well I don't need to deal with them either way, but I have played some games where heaps of popups for achievements flash all over the screen and all I can think of is get that garbage off the screen, I can't see properly. I really do dislike it quite a lot.
  7. Water from toilet reservoirs is probably pretty clean, at least in canada. I've never done any testing or anything on it but it never interacts with people's.....fluids and solids.....and it's closed to the environment pretty much forever. I would be interested to know how it actually compares. And yeah, most snow should be pretty clean in TLD considering how often it's falling. You can get jardia(sp?) and I think a few other things around spring but that's not the situation we are in.
  8. Finding books to add new skills is an interesting idea. I hadn't thought of that before.
  9. I think it's an interesting topic. In reality people would likely not step in the cracks of the bridge meaning it would effectively be really flat. Since we do bounce I think it's just additional evidence that we are infact a robot that uses wheels to get around. Also just to mention, I am not personally bothered that we bounce on bridges. I do find collecting evidence that we are not human is fun though so I approve of this topic.
  10. I mostly want to play the story but I have yet to put much time into it. I checked it out initially but now I am waiting for it to be finished before I go through it. I would be in the group of people who "gave up" but really I am just waiting. edit--------- Also can you disable achievements on steam? If I were playing on steam and achievement garbage started popping up on my screen you can bet I would be looking to turn that annoying trash off. That might also explain some of it.
  11. I think having animations for stuff would be cool too. It's likely a lot of work(though I don't know really, I've never done animation work) but I would probably like it. The one thing I would like to add is that the animations shouldn't take more time than the circles currently do. I have had experience where a game added animations but they were all far longer to go through than the little wait time before. I ended up not liking them because of that and I would feel it a same if that were to happen to TLD.
  12. The paint was likely really easy to do. Only thing I find a shame is I will likely never use them, just like the map.
  13. Yes me too. Having to adapt plans to when we happen to wake up would be a nice change I think.
  14. I would love to be able to jump. Getting stuck on every little thing that's more than 2cm high is probably the most annoying thing in TLD. Jumping could completely solve that. Thing is I don't think the devs will ever add jumping for the simple fact that it makes it harder for them to restrict where you go. Of course then they're left with the opposite problem of people getting stuck in places. Heck, I would be pretty happy if we could just lift our legs like a normal human being.
  15. I wish our character would wake up if they're too cold. It's tedious to sleep in one hour increments.
  16. Well the difference between deer and wolves is that the deer won't try to cuddle you if you get them excited.
  17. Good old contextless bots. Sorry, but there isn't tree removal or care in The Long Dark.
  18. Yeah I've heard some people can actually get sick without a dot or crosshairs or something. It would probably be nice for people who work better with them.
  19. Since we are making our own ammo now it would probably be easy to make some overpressure ammo. But that would be pretty dangerous? If it were real life I would never do that, I would rather not have my weapon explosively malfunction in my face. As to the stock idea, having a better stock should increase accuracy if anything. If you want to increase aim time you can reduce the weight of the gun, so cutting out the stock some or shortening the barrel. Cutting the barrel would hurt accuracy for minimal weight and I would never do it, but you might be able to get away with drilling holes in the stock without any real downsides. The weight savings would be tiny though. I would be okay with having an hour or two of work reducing the weight of the gun from 4kg to 3.95kg and increasing aim time by 2-3% for that. It would likely never be noticeable, but I would still do it if I had the time. What I think might be cool though is drilling out a hole large enough to keep a clip in the stock. Gameplay wise I don't think it would make any real difference, but in real life that would be something I might do. I guess then it comes down to is the cool factor enough to do it and that's only opinion.
  20. Yeah. The revolver seems good for killing deer and that's about it for me. The fact is unless the revolver is buffed to the point it can compete with the bow against wolves its only use will be to save arrows on deer or be the weapon you use if you have nothing else. I do seem to recall that the revolver was better when it was released? I understand that they don't want it to just replace the bow though.
  21. The bow is excellent. It reliably one shots wolves. The rifle might be better against timberwolves though due to how many you typically fight at once. I don't have enough experience with them to know though.
  22. Yeah, it can be helpful to mark ice for blizzards. I've done it but spray cans weren't available at the time. That's what they're supposed to be there for so it makes sense. I think one advantage is the arrows. You can of course makes arrows out of other items but I would hope the paint would be easier to use.
  23. I am really looking forward to OLED monitors becoming affordable(for me). Sadly I think it will be 5+ years. I am actually going to be looking at getting a new CPU/ram when the next ryzen processors launch. Four 11 year old cores isn't cutting it for some games and 8gigs of ram is struggling too. I am not sure if I will get a new GPU yet....I have a gtx 970. The only problem is that GPUs seem to have just gotten more expensive for the most part. A 5700XT is about double the price I paid for the 970. The canadian dollar was above the US dollar when I got it but still, double the price for only a little over double the performance after six years? hmmmmm that's sucky when I look at it. What I will probably end up doing is getting a new CPU, see how things are with my old GPU, and then decide after that.
  24. I almost got stuck in a bathtub once from what I recall. Thankfully I just missed it.
