  1. Character: Will Mackenzie
    Submission Categories: WINTERMUTE & Main Character Cosplay

    I did not choose this but here i am, i guess once we care about something there is nothing we cant do for it. The days are blurry, nights are cold and dark but i will not give up until i find Astrid. I know she is out here she can handle herself so should i. Wolves and bears are one thing but it is the mother nature that never stops to get you. I met a man named Methuselah other day, i dont know if he was real or not but one thing i am sure is everything he said is true. The quit apocalypse is here and i must try my best to survive it.

    My Experience: As it is mentioned before once we people care about something there is nothing we cant do. The Long Dark is a game i care about so much that i will carry it with my whole life. The choices and decisions we make are who we are and Long Dark is with me while i am making them. I tried my best in everything i hope you like it, the spear is hand-made by me i carved it. Some of the clothes are from my friends and the some of the items are from my grandpa. It was truly a unique experience. My friends and i had so much fun, i am so glad to be a part of this community.

    Although likes do count towards this total, for those that come in late should have equal enough chance as those put in weeks ahead of the deadline. Hinterland Studio has the final say in this matter. Which has the most creativity, respect towards the contests and to other's submissions reactions counts too. It's all up for grabs still. With how people can like any post in a thread on these forums that can shift the interest to one side or another. To balance this out I think Hinterland will take reactions into account to highlight the ones that are best in the running then decide from those which are the best likely candidates for the winners. Although, I may be completely mistaken by this idea.

    i agree with you. For example i am doing Will Mackenzie and i will be sharing it in a week and im trying my best to catch up to timeline because i made the spear with my bare hands and all :))

  3. Last Days of Carter Kurt (all photos are taken by me)
     

    Day 1:
    After a long winter when the spring comes i started to feel the warm wind on my face, life seems so peaceful and hopeful but at the evening of that day while i stand by with my wife and kids i got a call. My grandpa in Great Bear was dead. I was raised by him until i was 12, i can still remember the times we had in Great Bear he showed me how to hunt and being respectful to the nature and wildlife. I cannot repay my debt to him so at least i can pay him a visit one last time and say goodbye. So i went to the Great Bear i left my wife and kids home, i settled on the cabin once he was stayin and takin a look what he had under all those years...

    Day 2:

    After a good look at the cabin i found something that i should not have found. I found a tortured corpse and some files under the plank. I found the plank because it was making a noise when i tried to move the corpse i guess the guy was trying to protect the files one last time by dying on the plank and hoping that they would not take a look under him. The files was about the notes of every person on the Great Bear, those people were sent here by the powerfull rich people to manage Great Bear for making a profit out of locals. Locals were forced to work on dirty works and cannot have a life their  own. It was all being managed from the Dam i have never seen such a slavery i was shocked.screen_73f745ce-ef28-4b19-aa47-0926d0b9cb77_hi.thumb.png.6d9b80074d9fafb4562756395baf0ceb.png 

    Day 3:

    I knew that i MUST tell everyone what is happening here but i also must be careful because these are dangerous people and from the files i see that they leave no one behind to be a witness. Thank god my grandpa was a man of "being preapered", i gather up all the stocks and tools he had and get on my way to get out of here ! I cannot carry everything and everything outside will try to kill me bears, wolves, humans even the mother nature so i should only take what is necessary...screen_fdf9a32d-d6c6-4786-b77b-740344d4a865_hi.thumb.png.776aa07d4c0cc1f6708594867d1a01f6.png

    Day 4:

    I traveled into the town and seek others to help me but everyone was too afraid i showed them the files so they can make the world believe what is happening here but still they were terrified. At least they warned me that they were coming to hunt me so i leave the town immediately. I could not visit here again they will be everywhere i must go into the mountains. I use the smog to travel mountains hoping that i found a way out but there is only one in and out of the Great Bear and they are probably guarding it so i should find a strategy, THERE MUST BE A WAY !

    Day 5:

    I know my grandpa teach me how to be not afraid and survive but its been so long... I am use to be comfortable. One thing is for sure i must find a shelter, i walked for hours just so that i can save the daylight and God answered my prayers i found a cave. The thing is i wasnt the only one staying there, my adreline pumped extremely  when i heard that growling. When i shoot at the air he went away thanks god. But this is not working i must find the cabin that used to belong to my grandpas old friend Mr.Henry he was a lumberjack and he visited my grandpa many times while i were with him.screen_8a737f1d-3bbe-4478-a8e1-4bb7a5e0ec7d_hi.thumb.png.6ca44225e8019180c51ed261bd6276dc.png

    Day 6:

    If it isnt enough there is a bear nearby and he is tracking me for DAYS, i dont how will i get rid of him but there should be some bear traps at the Mr.Henry's cabin  there is no doubt i must get there. Sometimes when i walk i stop and try to listen, one time i heard a huge stomp and i run away try to make a campfire hoping that he would scare and i hold my breath and HE WALKED RIGHT BY ME. God i dont know how can i keep this going.screen_9c696033-54c4-4f2a-90bf-5a264fd3e6eb_hi.thumb.png.8c99875e79ebf2615055601be039ba97.png

    Day 7:

    I FOUND THE CABIN, i was so lucky to find here i was starting to lose hope but here it is ! I will stay here until they lower their search for me then maybe i can get some supplies too because i cannot survive here without supplies but i will stay them until i cant.screen_9c64c358-50aa-433e-8aaa-bbed3f700729_hi.thumb.png.08135d6f33fd59107a5395e086a7726b.png

    Day 8:

    I should use my time in here wisely because i cannot survive here without improving my skills. Mr.Henry used to love books he was showing me them time to time so this time i will use them to survive. I MUST LEARN I MUST STUDY ITS THE KEY !screen_27daf778-ad47-4cdc-a0c6-c17ee722e636_hi.thumb.png.fe9b749bfb6dcd3f021e083dd5f2d5f0.png

    Day 24:

    I think it is time to go back to town and check what is going on also i still need supplies i cant keep going like this anymore im consuming all the resources from the envrionment of the cabin. Also that bear is still wandering around i saw him sometime from a distance.screen_4a59cffc-fb63-47b7-a8b9-f3e219ef3302_hi.thumb.png.670ede4f3b809e9b07cd060d484108cb.png

    Day 32:

    They...they killed them. Everyone i talked to is dead and they are still guarding to pathway out of Great Bear. It all happened because of me...screen_ab78f0d0-ef4d-47b7-b01b-5f39b19a7ef4_hi.thumb.png.51d904b64f75806c47d9cc4cb1641bb0.png

    Day .....:

    I dont even know why im keep writing maybe because it keeps me sane ? those people... they all had children i dont even know what are they doing now.screen_a484eb0e-c147-4e0e-818f-9b9a434e3ccc_hi.thumb.png.eebded5cce5b5f2234f2c8afc4687ba5.png

    Day 140:

    There is only one way. I have to wait for the winter and when the storm comes in they have no choice to stand down and then i will make my move to get pass. Only thing i have to do is...survive.screen_bf1fe546-80a6-4582-9b5a-324cc548fda9_hi.thumb.png.4d6349f17007e2c7c4d86f7aec020f57.png

    Day IT IS TIME:

    The weather is extremely cold but i have to make my move. I should wait for the night right now i am preapered as i can be... The night has come and i was RIGHT they are not even here because it is freezing and nothing can be seen. I get pass the pathway but i started to feel warm. That is not good. My body cannot resist the warm embrace of death mother nature is not letting me. I dont know what to do grandpa help me... My family how will they know...These people of this town will suffer everyone will suffer no please... It is so warm maybe i cant rest here and keep going. NO what am i thinking my hand... i think in the end The Long Dark will be waiting for everyone... i cantrk writerewwq, itse soo coasldd freezifbfff.....................screen_cd8ac4a4-2cf1-4582-829e-33b14dea607a_hi.thumb.png.ddc813f22948129527a8248b49913991.png

    In my opinion, the technical backpack is currently too strong. Or better said, being able to carry 45 kg is too much.

    30 kg is a nice challenge in the early game, 35 kg with well fed is perfectly balanced for the mid game and then in the late game, when your clothes already weigh you down you can finally upgrade to 40 kg with the moose hide satchel, which is a nice bonus for the challenging late game. But 45 kilograms? Not only is it too much and makes inventory management too easy, I would even call it a bit unrealistic.

    So, I have 2 possible solutions for this.

    1) Nerf the technical backpack to only give you 2.5 kg of extra capacity, and make players unable to wear the technical backpack and moose hide satchel at the same time. This way, you can still go and get the technical backpack and be rewarded for it, but eventually if you want to maximize your capacity you'll have to kill a moose.

    2) Nerf both the technical backpack and the moose hide satchel to only give you 2.5 kg of extra capacity. This way you still would need to get both of them to maximize your capacity, but your capacity wouldn't exceed 40 kg.

    Also, if it was nerfed I think there should maybe be at least a few other possible spawns for it. I'm not saying it should be able to be found everywhere, but maybe it could sometimes be found in some other hard to reach places?

    Personally I just won't pick up the technical backpack because it makes the game too easy for me, but maybe some of you disagree with me? Or maybe someone has better ideas for balancing the technical backpack. Leave your opinion down below.

    how can i downvote this, its balanced enough. this guy clearly never been to ash canyon

  5. we should be able to craft or find candles, and if you light them in a car or a small places it should add +1 temp, we should be able to craft them with tin can and animal fat
