  1. Hinterland did say that it was an affliction geared towards longer runs and later gameplay, so this is no surprise really. As I said before, none of us is going to get to grips with it properly until we've had a chance to play a new run for a good length of time.
  2. Yeah, for me this is a great balance between the healthy black wolves and the tinberwolves. Scary enough to be not routine, but don't bring the game to a standstill for a while like Timbies do. Fighting animals is the least interesting aspect of TLD for me, but I am really enjoying these godforsaken creatures.
  3. That sounds more like a jump than a fall. I am picturing falling as falling over, part of my body other than my feet making contact with the ground in an uncontrolled way, and I could easily smack my backpack into a rock wall as I do.
  4. I leant my beloved flask to someone who left in sitting on the bonnet of their car then drove off. They retrieved it when it fell into the road, but the plastic that was part of the seal broke and it was useless after that. Gutted. I'm as astonished as Raph was that someone thought damage caused by a fall was unexpected. Yes, falls! Things break when they fall! Things you're carrying break when you fall! Gravity is merciless and the ground is hard.
  5. That's pretty cool! I always liked the Old Bear's Den very much and would love to have it in Survival mode. Your version sounds even better! I had a TLD dream last night too! I'm amazed I don't have them more often given how much time I spend in Great Bear both playing and watching streams. In my dream I was playing a Holodeck-like live-action multiplayer version of the game with a bunch of community members. We were in the Concentrator building in ZoC. It was insanely cool!
  6. I didn't interpret it as a mistake, I figured the wolves don't want to follow me into the toxic waste (they don't have wellies on like I do). I use the pools of toxic waste as a way of managing the wolf threat.
  7. Is this true for the Mine Gate key also? I have found 4 things that require keys, and only two keys found (non-Tales run)
  8. It's keep left if you're British, Irish, Aussie, Kiwi or Indian, keep right for everyone else.
  9. Gotta update this since spending time in the Zone of Containation: I have now built a few snow shelters, and rolled the dice with infection and lost. Love the new regions and the new challenges they bring!
  10. I have found one, so they do exist, but that's far far fewer than any other region, let alone region of this size
  11. I reported this as a bug, as it definitely desn't seem to be working as intended - the other affliction stats count full, red afflictions, not risks.
  12. Yeah, TLD is a hiking simulator, and plenty of people like hiking for its own sake. I will spend way more than 40 seconds hiking to my destination. The game will usually do something beautiful or challenging on the way, though not quite every 40 seconds.
  13. Hiding from this lil guy Dinner time in the Idle canteen The Concentrator is a great place for a rave
  14. This is TLD in a nutshell. Thanks for sharing! Hope you heal up well and get all your food.
  15. Are you sure there isn't?? 😉
  16. Interloper spawn settings for plants is the same as all the other modes. It's only custom games that have less saplings spawning in
  17. Yeah, this feels like a bug/oversight, maybe?
  18. I've started to change my mind about the harvesting animations a bit. The lurchiness of it depends a bit on where you are positioned relative to the carcass when you start to harvest - which makes sense - and I don't find it as motion-sickly as I did in most cases. I am guilty of a bit of a knee-jerk 'unfamiliar thing bad' reaction and I admit I'm getting used to it now.
  19. Love this drawing, thank you for sharing and expressing what so many of us feel! My new favourite thing is erasing spray paint markers in first-person with the new clothing animations.
  20. X is pretty locked down these days if you don't have an account. That link shows me a tweet asking a question, but I get the feeling you're saying Raph responded saying to Watch This Space for the Decemeber Dev Diary. Unfortunately, I can only see the tweet you linked and not any of the replies or QTs. Can you link directly to what Raph tweeted? Thank you
