 Here we go.  "Clearly misunderstood".  You have absolutely no basis to make this claim, but you do it anyway.  You assume that I'm offended, which, btw, implies your offensive to my comments. You are coming at me as if you understand me, while I approach you as someone that I am trying to...

Nah, I think you're missing my point, which is sad because I thought this might be a fun discussion of the new features. I'm not going to trust "they're adjusting loot tables" because I've heard that promise for the last 4 Alphas.  Maybe they'll get it this time? Maybe not. You haven't...

Water was easy since I started playing in 13? Maybe sooner.  It took maybe two days to not have to worry about water.  I have played NO survival game where I couldn't negate the need for water within 7 days of system play (not IRL play). If you're getting "all high-end stuff" by week 2, I can...

I suck at breaking up quotes, so I ask your forgiveness. I can see your point on the bandits, except for one thing - bandits aren't a guarantee in this Alpha at this point. Maybe they'll happen, maybe they get pushed off to 22, which does present a problem when you consider the other changes...

I guess I would ask first why anyone's opinion would make you facepalm? There is some validity in the point that maybe bandits are the only thing new or exciting to come.  Oh, we're re-doing water again because apparently water became too easy to get. Okay. There was a simpler solution to that...

My apologies if this has already been asked and answered, but I haven't been able to find the information specifically.  Are there going to be significant changes to looting parts (weapons/armor/tools)?  The issue that I had with crafting those items was 2 fold. 1.) Generally started looting...

I'd be happier with AGI builds getting a semi-night vision boost.  Would make the line WAY more valuable to go out early game at night when other lines want to stay inside. Especially since our most power tool is render near useless on horde nights.

Farming isn't a gamble. It's a collective of knowledge, skill, and willingness to go out in the mud and salvage what you can to prevent complete catastrophe. It's not RNG. And as you say, farming is made irrelevant by the prevalence of meat. The bonuses of the complicated foods are nice, but...

Depends on how you play.  I run hard AGI. Bullets are nothing to me but backup for "oh hell" moments through most of the 7 days. By the time I hit T5 missions, I can get through them with iron arrows for the most part, leather armor and some mix of military by that point and usually come out...

Hmmm, I have experiences where a zombie 'wakes up' but I am still able (at low Hidden) to get a Stealth shot on them very quickly and other situations that are similar where I can't. Definitely need to test it more, but it's hard to control for variables. What I do know is that stealth on horde...

I started a new SP game. Haven't gotten to where I can farm anything yet.  However, in my multiplayer game, I am at LoTL 2 and have yet to get more than 3 from any seed that I grow. I am about to get LoTL3 so we'll see how that turns out!

I will disagree here a bit. It's not effort. It's RNG. If RNG decides to flip a person the bird, even mildly ( you either don't get the extra crop, you lose the seed, or god forbid both) then farming is losing situation. The only real reason to the LoTL is for the extra crops you get from farms...

I'll have to recheck, but I'm pretty sure I'm not getting 4 from a planted crop on lotl1 or 2.

Ah, gotcha! My bad.  Really? What do you think will get changed?

I am currently fence sitting on the farming changes. What the person who I play with the most and I DO like a lot is that we have to be craftier (hah!) with what we have on hand. It forces us to branch out to other foods that we either ignored before or made only because we wanted to make...
