    PC V3.0 Dead Hot Summer Dev Diary

    In my last play through, I disabled the 7 day horde and added a mod that gave me very large wandering hordes. The idea was to replace the threat of the bloodmoon horde with an ever present threat of a wandering horde. I'd love to be able to recreate that with in-game options. Any chance we...

    Why this release schedule?

    Doubt it.... there is a good reason why most video game updates occur on Tuesdays.

    Why this release schedule?

    IMO, the most likely outcome, were TFP ever to reconsider streamer weekend, is that streamers wouldn't get access on Friday. They'd get access on Monday the same as everyone else. This would not address the OPs issue and would just prevent people interested in streamers from watching that...

    Why this release schedule?

    Well, not to sound pedantic, but streamers didn't ALWAYS get it first.... Streamer weekend started with A17, IIRC. However, I agree with your overall point, its not going to change now.

    Appreciate you checking. Its been a while since we last played together, so that might be it.

    My buddy plays with smell turned off... I play with it turned on. When we play together and I host the game, nothing he does has a smell while it does for me. So I think the client settings (at least in this case) are overriding the host settings.

    The Race For The Forge

    After a couple of times where I had poor luck finding a cooking pot early... I gave up trying. Now I just do a couple of quests and buy a cooking pot on day 1

    What's the point of the apiary?

    Yeah, don't know what to tell you.... I dont really see it as that much effort, maybe I just have a knack for finding stumps. Each to his own.

    What's the point of the apiary?

    Definitely not luck, since I do this every game. I do break pretty much every stump I see. Its a 20% chance for a stump to have honey, and a 50% chance for a stump with honey to have bees. So, you have a 10% chance per stump to get beeswax. On average, 50 stumps should get you an apiary.

    What's the point of the apiary?

    If you break enough stumps, you'll have plenty.... in my current game, I have 7 on day 35. I've had as many as 10 in other games.

    What's the point of the apiary?

    Honestly, for the me, what makes it so great is that I can make high end food without using water. That way I can save all my water for glue. That alone makes the apiary worth it.... I make as many as I have the resources for. The fact that I'm essentially immune to infection from that point...

    Story Mode Controversy --REDUX

    Honestly, this whole discussion is getting tiring.... but since you asked. My understanding is that a key component of the trope is that the "Casino Indian" is using (misusing) the casino to facilitate his greed and/or corruption. So far, nothing in the description indicates that the Duke is...

    Story Mode Controversy --REDUX

    I can see how someone would think that.... I can also see reasons why he doesnt. Thats an opinion. You don't know the motives of every single person or organization that runs a casino any more than I do. However, IMO, its a moot point because we're talking about a fictional character in a...

    Story Mode Controversy --REDUX

    Also, I hate to tell you.... but anyone that runs a casino, regardless of their ethnicity, is doing it out of greed. They're actively trying to take money out of the hands of the gamblers.... as they should be, if they want the casino to stay in business.

    Story Mode Controversy --REDUX

    Well... I haven't seen most of whats on those lists.... and the things I have seen don't fit the trope at all.
