Although the story is great, it is something that I don't entirely like playing through more than once. Since I got the game on the Switch, I've been playing it alot, and I'd love to continue onto Episode 4 (whenever it releases) with the items I acquired on PC in Episode 3.

It seems that I did not think this through

Now before you berate me, hear me out. I know that multiplayer/coop is not a main focus of the game. You are meant to feel alone and I like that feeling, but I think you could still capture that feeling of being alone with Coop/Multiplayer. Now, on to my idea. I believe that Coop could help add some more fun features to the game and make it a bit more enjoyable. I don't want 3-5 person COOP, I believe multiplayer should stay as a two person type of ordeal only. I believe that you would have a world set up for you and a friend, either of you could get on at any time and play and another could join at anytime. However, you each have to spawn in a completely different region. This could be pre selected or randomized. So one of you could spawn in Forlorn Muskeg while another is all the way in Hushed River Valley and so on so forth. If you are not using Discord or don't know the layout of the game, the first few hours/days could be spent playing alone trying to find each other. Whenever you do find each other, then it's just a neat little COOP experience from there. I believe Voice Chat would be useful, but only in a local area and not globally. If you don't have VC, then maybe a set amount of words you can say? Like a "Hello', "Follow Me", etc etc. Nothing to big but not small enough to where you would be handicapped without VC. Now, if one of you die, then that's it..that person is dead. You could either stay in that world as a singleplayer world or just restart. This is all coming from my mind as I speak, so I'm sorry if some of it is a jumbled mess. I hope it's a better idea than some server list or whatsoever!

Thanks for the welcome uwu

Nice

I never knew there were so many mods in the past!

Oh? There was a collection of them? What were they?

What would be some mod ideas that you would like to see in the future whenever the game gets offical support, if ever? I say mods and not features cause you may have an idea that sounds good as a mod but not an offical feature. In my personal opinion, even if I do like the art style of the game, I feel like a mod making the game look more realistic looking would be nice. Also, a mod which turns it to summer would be fun.

Ah, well thanks for the awfully long explanation lol. I know less about the game then I thought. I've always appreciated the artstyle of the game, which also makes it easier to run on lower spec computers, but I always wondered what a realistic looking Long Dark would look like.

Ah, this makes more sense now! I appreciate you explaining it to me, as I see alot of metal exposed on the sporterized Lee Enfield. Do you know why as to the Lee Enfield in the game is so...different looking then the actual Lee Enfield? Is the firearm covered under some sort of copyright law or something?

Correct. It seems that it'd make more sense for the rifle to look like one made for hunting and not warfare. Although it could be counter argued that a regular Lee Enfield may be cheaper then a sporterized one and that is why they would have one.

I hope to enjoy the forums, but as a counter argument to your statement. I don't mean some modern one with carbon fiber, I mean ones like the one in the image below!

Remodel of the rifle: I feel like a remodel of the rifle could be...reasonable. I know that they're going for the style of a Lee Enfield, but it just feels off. I feel like a sporterized version of the Lee Enfield would fit in better. I see nothing wrong with the rifle on it's own, and I personally wouldn't mind it staying in, but I feel as if the sporterized varient would be more visually appealing. Scope: I think it would be nice to see the possibility of a scope in the game. You could find it attached to a rifle or even detached, then having to put it on the rifle (Possibly needing a simple tools kit because putting a scope on a rifle isn't easy if the rifle wasn't prepared for one.) This could help in longer range hunting, helping you stay out of the danger zone. This sounds good..but there could be a catch. If you are attacked by a moose or bear, the scope has a possibility of getting a crack in it. This crack could not be fixed and would visually impair you though the scope. After enough encounters (around 2-3), the scope would break and it would be useless. You would then have to find another scope, if there are any more. A scope would make sense since alot of people on the island probably hunted for a good bit of their food. And now that I remember it, a scope could also slow your reload time since you cannot use stripper clips. Shotgun: Yeah, yeah..I know. The shotgun is a popular topic, but I'm just going to give my own opinion on it. I believe that the shotgun, specifically a 12 Gauge single/double barrel, could be useful in a variety of cases...but not the best for all of them. Like a jack of all trades gun. It could be used to hunt crows with birdshot. It could be used for hunting with buckshot or for self defense against wolves. Slugs could provide a chance of defense against a bear or moose. Since it is a jack of all trades, there should be a downside..right? Well, besides the single/two shot capabilities, I think that the shotgun could have a chance of hurting your shoulder if your character isn't an experienced shooter yet. A bruised shoulder could hurt your aim and shooting with a bruised shoulder could make the pain worse and worse...along with the aim. Stripper Clips: Simple. I believe that stripper clips should be found individually instead of automatically having them. That is just my thoughts on what could be added, although I'd love to hear your discussion below Also I would love a COOP mode but I doubt that'll ever be added so I'm praying for mods

Hello! My name is A.J. and I'm from Kentucky...where the weather gets from The Long Dark levels of cold to Australia bush fire levels. I've been in love with The Long Dark for a long time. Although I really got into it around the update where they added visible arms, which isn't related to why I got interested. I'm more or less interested in the actual story of the game and the lore, which causes me to have a hard time staying involved with any sort of Survival Mode. I love any form of media that comes from this game (art, stories, shorts, etc) and am still awaiting any news for some sort of live action short/movie/show/whatever because I love the premise of this game so much. Anyways...more about me I guess? I am a furry, yes, but don't let that have you judge me for what I am. It's just a hobby and it only really exceeds to enjoying the art that people create. I am an avid PC gamer. I play a wide array of PC games, although recently Escape from Tarkov has caught my eye...along with L.A. Noire I am an avid gun nerd. I love anything firearm related, I could probably name any WW1/2 firearm just by looking at it because that's my favorite field of study. The in-game Lee Enfield still doesn't look like a sporterized Lee Enfield and I highly dislike that...for some reason. I am the minority that wouldn't mind more firearms in the game. Those are just some things...but you are welcome to ask me questions. I do own a Discord server, but I don't thing this would be the right place to advertise that. I hope everyone has a good day/night.
