So Iv noticed through various runs now that anytime I get a chance of worms, every single time, I get the worms. Every single time now. I just went through a run and decided to try the "1000 cuts of a single piece of meat" Followed by "1000 cooked pieces of meat to improve cooking skill" theory. Indeed it worked very well I might say, 1 deer and wolf has improved my cooking to level 4. However on the very last piece of wolf meat, I got a little zealous and accidentally ate the last piece of meat. 1% chance of parasite infection... No joke, I wasn't even done cooking the rest of the deer meat before it became a full blown parasite infection that requires 10 full days of antibiotic treatments. Why is there even a percentage chance?

You can play in any region of the world, but you can only stay in a region for 30 real-time minutes (Note: all timings are being tuned based on playtesting and may change before the event goes live) before toxic fog will appear. When the fog appears, you’ll have 5 real-time minutes to escape the region before you die. Once the fog takes hold, the region is impassible. A lot of your strategy will come down to where you travel and how far ahead you can plan your movements through the world. Since you can’t see the entity, you’ll have to count on what you can HEAR to stay alive. Listen for the entity’s cries, its footsteps, and how the spooky music builds as it approaches your location Well crap, I literally just lost my headphones the other day. x.x And an interesting event for sure, but only half an hour in each zone? Going to be running my butt off just to get anywhere and then no looting in those area's for sure.

Been rather busy with thing and life lately, but it occurred to me tonight, will there be a Halloween event this year?

Had a bit of a run the other day on the current event, and I must say, it was both tough and forgiving…...like your on interloper as far as the weather is concerned, but pilgrim when it came to the loot.....shame I decided to try and take a bear down during an aroura. If it wasn't for that, Id be out scavenging right now. With that said, Iv had a chance to also look into the spray cans, polaroid's, and the new mapping system...…..First off, I love the new polaroid picture rewards. I actually kinda care about trying to make a map now. Before I just stuck to what was in my head. I still do, lets face it, I don't have to pause the game to figure out where Im at and where Im going, but the extra details I seen in the map after I hit the charcoal ontop of radio hill in pleasant valley was very worth while. Knowing if a dead body spawned in or not before actually walking out to it is very useful. Next, the spray cans.....gotta say, I wish I had more symbols to use. Granted, the ones we have now are necessary and I would not change them, but I feel like I needed extra symbols so that in a very long game, say 500 days, I would know how much stuff I left behind, and if any of it was good or bad. More markers or custom made markers please! Last but not least, Im a big big big fan of the current event setup.....cold, harsh, but abundant resources to scavenge…..would like to see another one this way......heck, maybe just a pure "scavenger" game.....no hunting, no tools {except for the prybar} see how long you can last with just you ability to sort through the good stuff, or steal kills from wolves.

lmao, yeah those was the good ole days. When a kid could connect to the internet and play video games via dial up XD

Mine has been a soda bottle placed in between the joystick on the controller, and the xbox x. XD

OMG, shazbot…..I have not heard that slang since the PS2 days....

would have to speculate that it is probably a convenience store thing....if great bear was super touristy kind of attraction during the summer months, my bet would be that only the popular convenience stores would be the ones to retain any sort of beer or liquor. With that said tho, I would also like to believe it would be one of the first things bought, stolen, or looted after things started to fall apart. Yeah, its something to drink, but a smart survivor would also realize its good to use as a disinfectant, fire starter {if the proof is high enough}, and also as an alternative fuel for vehicles. {again, if the proof is high enough}

long list of changes, hopefully for the better. Had to quit for awhile cause the frame rate in bleak inlet was causeing me some headaches. Hopefully that's been adjusted for consoles. Also deffinantly all for that auto walk feature. Been using a weight up against the joystick to auto walk while I went to go grab snacks. XD

they would deffinantly need a way to separate the fuel if they all added up.....like if someone wanted to be able to run, but they only wanted to drop .06kg, instead of the whole 1.3kg

Iv learned the hard way that you really got to keep an eye on weight.....ask yourself what could you leave behind and it wouldn't be a problem. Can't tell you how many times I look into my inventory and I go ape over the fact Im lugging around fir or cedar pieces, or a gallon of water. 18 lbs??? What is wrong with me? I can literally find 3 sticks anywhere and have water cooked up in a matter of no time.

Yeah, DP isn't a good place to hang out at. its nice to visit, maybe keep you going to get a nice fat haul out of the forge, but beyond that, your actually doing much better than I ever have. Typically I get 20 arrowheads, 3 knives, and a hatchet, then lock up trying to get out of there. "Im overweight, but I need food, so I got to quarter up this deer and slowly walk back to the church. welp there is 5 wolves, a blizzard, and Im screwed..." Ill learn to pack light sooner or later. >.>

Sadly the map creation was really lost on me.....Yeah, I could figure out where Im at and so forth if given an already completed map, but as for cooking one up on the fly? Im hard wired memory, I know how to get where I have already been.

Honestly I think it could be possible. Im not saying they need to go fallout 76 or anything, just the ability to invite and host other players to your own game at its current time frame. I mean most of the time there is double the amount of neccisary items and whatnot. The only things that I could see a problem with is when the bear or moose pins someone down. That whole animation sequence would be lost as the second player could just shoot wildly as the first person gets mauled.

I approve of this idea! I already tend to stay away from holding onto caught fish as they provide a strong scent and seem to decay faster that the rest of the other foods, this just might make me rethink that theory!
