Completing it unlocks the recipe.

No I'm perked into sledgehammers and maxed it out already by day 25, and I still found 2 sledges (A T3 steel when all I could craft was T1 steel, and then I got to T3 crafting and found a T4 Steel sledge, so looting is staying ahead of my crafting ability on this playthrough so that rogue hood...

I'm guessing you never take any looting perks. I have no looting perks but I'm wearing a rogue hood this build and I've found better sledgehammers than I can craft twice now.

We've re-tuned the biome hazards to be airborne and nothing to do with weather so we can run the weather stuff side by side with biome hazards with no issues or confusion now. Your breathing toxic crap, it's gonna kill you. You can take shelter and recover from it so it's not a very hard gate. I...

And that is a good thing. It was too frustrating to not unlock certain tech. Some players didn't even know half the content in the game existed. Having major sections of content blocked through a rare random drop wasn't an acceptable solution. I get what your saying with the randomness, but we...

The terrain shader is using all the textures that are allowed, that is why the plains biome got cut, so adding new biomes would be limited to sharing the same old textures we've all seen and not really add much to the game IMO. Water could be done without a new biome, but would probably require...

We talked about a gun jam mechanic where you just reload it to fix the gun jam. Would be based on quality and degradation. Could make for some interesting situations.

I don't want to spill the design, TFP will craft a statement about the design and why we went the route we did first so people aren't making arm chair quarterback decisions about it before they play it.

You are correct that without a mind wipe, there is no way for any game to feel new again. That said, I think our new version of jars make the game feel more engaging. I have to go find jars, then find water, fill the jars and I'd better do it before it gets dark early game because ferals spawn...

Much more will come.

Filling the jars is just part of it. I don't see it as an exploit creating a well. You still have to go out and get the jars.

The topic is an old beaten horse. The fact is the vast majority of players NEVER experienced it and like the current system just fine and many players have expressed how tired they are of us changing stuff "that worked fine" so we're definitely not touching this one again.

They aren't going anywhere. If you want to set up your own well for jar filling you should be able to do so. I haven't tried it.

I've been hacked, so anything I say can't be held against me LOL.

We still have that with mod schematics, but for mainline stuff expected and needed, magazines work better.
