I'm pretty much just gobbling them up until that badge shows up

I was actually enjoying the cabin fever risk with this. Managing your temperature as well as time inside/outside was a new play style for me. Now i feel i can camp indoors and just use a workbench all day (instead of setting up camp outdoors at a workbench (Mountain town/Coastal Highway/Forlorn Muskeg)

soooooo, right in front a moose it is.

Great post! they started me in FM. pretty close to the ML transition, so I made my way. I found a knife in the Trappers Cabin, and got some decent clothing from the locker there. It was already nighttime by the time i arrived. I took the storm lantern, a flare, and a pack of matches and decided to head Mountain Town immediately in hopes of looting all of the houses. (it paid off)

I am happy that I did a couple runs on interloper & runs on stalker before this. I feel a little more at peace, even though i'm freezing. Managing clothing and fires & cabin fever is taking some trial and error though.

I like the idea. It's obvious you put a lot of time into it. I'm not sure how Hinterland would feel about introducing hallucinogens to the game though. on a side note: I would really try to avoid Pleasant Valley mountain area.

hey Manic, do you stream your sessions?

you would think i'd learn by now. I just assumed he could get to me.

Welcome to the start of my day. Bear Attack.mp4

I took some time to break out the Polaroid camera (It was from before the collapse, still had 3 photos left) I'm proud of the result. Riken Aurora Moonrise over Riken Lighthouse with pain!

Oh, im not quite at level 5 cooking yet. I'll have to check this out.

**SPOILER ALERT Incoming*** for anyone who hasnt played wintermute stop reading. I LOVED the spear battles against the big bear. If this was an option in survival, I would prefer carrying that and a bow instead of a bow and pistol.

I can eat bear meat on Stalker due to parasites. but hey, the hid isnt too bad.

I expect a daily post of your progress for the event 😆 to keep me entertained.

Cannot wait.

ummm, eww

I like it. could create a safe outdoor space for crafting on Coastal Highway. Could block in a porch for outdoor reading and sewing & sleeping without fear.

The aurora/disturbances cause issues with compasses, which is why those would be useless.

This makes the most sense to me. access from underneath!

That is the exact idea i had jumping in to my current play through (this is my 3rd time, after learning the hard way about do's and don'ts <--is that how that is spelled). I got faithful cartographer, but REALLY wish i would have done it the way you do it. I think it would have been challenging in regards to survival, but easier in regards to "i missed a spot of DP and I'm in BI" I did the wrapped in furs (I did it at Timberwolf Mountain, which was a very rewarding experience). BUT i left the bedroll behind. I'm hoping to to talk back there and finish my 500th day in that bedroll (i'm on day 287) I cant remember what the "skilled survivor" is.

My current challenge is to hit that 500th day. And then maybe get passed day 2 on interloper

This could be kind of cool. I picture me using this running and waving my arms while yelling to scare a wolf away from its kill.

I've been struggling with the idea of daily objectives. There is a part of me that says "Surviving the day is the objective". That being said, I THINK, daily objectives could be introduced to survival mode without it feeling too forced (feeling like a higher power is giving you objectives instead of yourself). We already have a section where we can leave ourselves notes, check stats, etc. What do you all think about having a section for an optional daily objective(s) that would give extra points for a specific category (fishing, fire starting, harvesting and so on). These objectives could range in difficulty. "Catch a fish" / "Harvest a Bear Hide" as examples.

But we want to appear to be on ice skates. i mean, it is canada.

I've noticed that as well. There are also a few log bridges that will cause sprains because the "slope" is steep.
