The oil lamps were completely absurd and wonderful. Turned them all on for maximum Victorian vibes. 

There’s an Infinite Boiler off screen. It’s the ultimate Infinite Fire and extra boiltastic.

It felt like a very deliberate choice to me. I found one body alone at first and also tried to loot it with some confusion before walking a little further and seeing the rest of the group. Then I realized what was going on. It’s a very sad scene.

I’ve been keeping most things in the locker near the exit. I can confirm that items left on the floor there have also stayed put so far.

I just tried this. Can confirm - starting from the previous checkpoint and not changing any switches after completing each step of the puzzle avoids the locked doors.

Indoor lighting at night is much better. It’s a better dark when there’s little or no light.

fyi for other people who are having issues with this, here’s where you can go into the settings and turn it off. 

Options > Controls > Enable Motion Aiming

I tried Aiming Only too, but nope. Always Off it is. It was way too much. 

I think I used A. My issue was finding the window in the first place, but once I got that Window prompt, I was able to open it.

There’s a vast supply of gunpowder in my run so far. I can get past the timberwolves with noisemakers although the cloth and cans to make them are more limited in supply.

I also am finding the phone call audio a little difficult to hear. This wasn’t an issue with Molly or other dialogue before. The volume just seems a little low in these scenes.

There is some back and forth between them about who are you, why should I trust you, etc. Jace explains she was stranded in the area as she was driving through when the first aurora event happened. 

Jace nearly died trying to find shelter that first night, and eventually found a fence which led her to the prison. Where many people had just been killed by the escaped prisoners.

Jace determined to keep Donner locked up. She asks Mackenzie to earn her trust by going to some old steam tunnels at the power plant and sabotaging the machinery there. It should in theory keep the solitary area locked.

She seems to know something about the aurora she isn’t sharing yet.

He’s got his original clothing, too. Well, some of it anyway. At first I thought I hadn’t loaded the correct saved game. I’m guessing certain things from Chapter 2 didn’t carry over. I always try to send them off with the best equipment at the end of a chapter. LOL. Oh well. New play style required for me.

Every single item in your inventory and most outer layers of clothing you are wearing (hat, gloves, coat). Didn’t have accessories at the time but I would assume those go too.

I have this problem too. It worked ok when I first started playing in Sept/Oct. Now I have to reset it every time I return to an ongoing game.
