Revamp / suggestion from a physician that LOVES this game
in Wish List
Posted
Absolutely LOVING this game... honestly there aren't enough words to express how much fun I'm having, except maybe helping the game grow. So I found some suggestion about in-game conditions and mechanics that could reward the player if doing good and punish if not paying attention.
To be honest I live is a tropical climate, so pardon me if my info isn't on point but....
- Thirst: An adult require 3 to 4 litters of water per day... How is the survivor only needing 600ml per 10~12h? Yet again a human can live without drinking a drop o water about 3 days... (make it 2 for the extreme conditions here). My suggestion is to increase the amount of water necessary to at least 2,5L but make it last for longer. Example you can live a day without drinking water without problems, past that time and you'll get headaches an "Restlessness" (a new condition i'll explain latter) and make a non-linear condition health loss from not drinking water making it drop a 25% the first 24h and 75% by the end of the 48h.
- Sleep and Fatigue: Maybe the only game mechanic that I dislike... Don't sleep for 12h and you already feel like "losing consciousness" and unable to run? I know even hard work both mental and physical will fatigue you, but this doesn't make sense! My suggestion:
- "Diseases and Negative Conditions": Curing a blood loss with 1 bandage or healing infection and dysentery with ONE (or two capsules) of antibiotic isn't exactly accurate, also way to forgiving. And don't make me begin with Sprained wrist an ankles...
- Food: This is really ok, but there are some food like that Condensed milk that shouldn't replenish thirst, on the contrary it may give almost the same amount of calories of a MRE but increase thirst (its condensed protein and sugar, this can kill you!) this also applies to sugary drinks but I feel its fair and balanced by increasing the amount of water required per day. ¿Maybe add recipes? Feels a little bland to eat meat and water having tomato soup / pork and beans / peaches that could even satisfy you more or reduce hunger rate for a little while longer. Also the calories consumption should be higher, usually harsh and stress condition increases you requirements to a 1.3 or 1.5 the normal rate and extreme ambient conditions should raise it up. So maybe a 3,0k a day and 3,5 if doing physical/mental activities?
- Potpourri: A bunch of random suggestions of minor thing or items
I'm truly sorry to had taken the time of the unfortunate victim that found this post. But I just love this game... getting it in EPIC store for free and giving a try with 0 expectation (and completely blind about it) and finding such an amazing gem, took me by surprise and would love it to grow and keep getting better and better as it have been for the past year.
Good luck surviving in the Great Bear Island and Have fun!
