    Perk set: Field Fortifications

    There could be a set of perk books for simple traps and construction. Recipe: Rattle alarms (tin cans on a string), makes noise when anything walks through  Players running into these should benefit from Urban Combat 3 Recipe: Entrenching Tool - a steel-tier multipurpose...

    Immersive loot idea

    Have something like an invisible block that functions as a "Room Type Modifier" that modifies the loot table for appropriate containers within its set range.  Mainly I mean cupboards, maybe also trash containers. Effect: Loot the cupboards in laboratories or garages, find things other than food.

    It's not a virus, it must be a bacterial infection since antibiotics work on it.

    STALKER style stashes

    I imagine it could work like this: you would be able to find or purchase stash notes which function like treasure maps, except instead of pointing to a buried treasure they would generate a backpack or duffel bag somewhere. There could be groups of sleepers or booby traps guarding the...

    PC Alpha 20 Dev Diary

    Well, no. Not the entire game. Day 1. I may be getting a distorted impression from one game in which Day 1 RNG was extremely unlucky.  After more games in this alpha I'm starting to see that this was an extremely unusual case.   On that game I was finding no glue/tape, no ammo for the gun I...

    I tend to think it shouldn't be too rare to find 1 bottle under sinks, since several drain cleaners are acidic. Alkaline products are probably more common, to be fair.

    PC Alpha 20 Dev Diary

    I've been dying a lot on days 1-2 on default settings.  If I get past this, it's a reasonable challenge, but early on without a full set of starting gear, it's usually either a feral or a pack of 4+ coming into the building from outside. Possible solutions: 1. Take feral spawning out of early...

    Orange is wasteland, yellow is desert. Can something be done about the preview camera controls?   Speed seems to be limited by framerate and holding Shift doesn't make it go faster

    PC Alpha 20 Dev Diary

    The new Crack-A-Book skyscraper POI is a nice break from the usual pathing, but it seems like there's an underwhelming amount of book shelves & crates.   Also the stairs leading down from the rooftop could do with a guide light, and at the end of those stairs, either a break in the railing...

    Bike racks and bicycle shops

    Effect: Make it easier to obtain a bicycle in the early game The bike rack might come in three variants: -An empty version, just iron and pipe -A damaged version which can only be wrenched for parts (iron, mechanical parts, and a chance of bicycle parts or wheels) -A less-damaged version...

    Add shotgun ammo type: #4 Buckshot

    Something that roughly approximates the effects of hollow point rounds in other guns, and possibly desirable when clearing wooden structures. Pros: Higher pellet count, more total damage to unarmored targets, less collateral block damage Cons: Less damage per pellet, lower armor penetration

    Trader and quest additions

    Stashes Similar to the STALKER series.  Like buried treasure notes, but instead of buried treasure, point to the nearest unopened backpack or duffel bag at the marked coordinates.   Contents are usually lower value than a buried chest, but the note usually states what's in the bag.  Traders...

    Crowbars & E-Tools

    I'd like these. Crowbars A melee weapon that deals bonus damage to wooden constructions (one-hits any crate) and locked containers. Strength perk: Crowbar Warrior Improves melee with crowbars - the special effect might be a chance to trip. Any other perks could probably be covered by a set...

    PC Developer Discussions: Alpha 17

    I wouldn't mind seeing a few quests that would require jumping down a hole somewhere. In principle all you'd have to do is remember to bring what you need to build a ladder, if you want to leave yourself an escape route. To provide incentive against building an escape ladder/staircase, the...

    Accessory Items

    Accessories: An assortment of small items that only need to be kept in the inventory to work. They either grant certain bonuses or enable certain actions. The quality level of the item might affect the strength of its effects. Accessories may also work when placed on a table. Accessories on a...
