Just a quick pass to check for holes :) If they silently release it to experimental, within 5 minutes people will notice and start telling everyone in the world that a new version is out, and half of the people that hear about it will start playing it. When bugs get found there will suddenly...

This actually seems like a pretty good idea. I don't even see why it needs to be related to a land claim either. If you make a bed and place it, that becomes your main bed. If you put a sleeping bag down in your travels, it becomes your road-bed and when you pick it up or it gets destroyed...

This seems like a quite sensible way to look at this. The "gameplay is more important than 100% realism" argument works both ways. Maybe one of the tradeoffs of being able to carry 15,000 pounds of concrete around on your person is that you can't easily just fling it aside on a whim when you...

Funny... whenever my Athletics leveled up, my usual reaction was "why is my Athletics leveling up when I've been crouching/looting/calmly maintaining my base/cooking for the last 5 minutes?" But I figured the majority of getting to that point came from running and jumping so it did work okay...

This has been an issue since sleepers were introduced. I remember people used to say "give them time, the sleepers are new so of course they will be overused as they are figuring out how best to use them, it will get balanced better in future versions." Then the new version came out and we've...

As someone who has spent far too much time reading the Steam forums... this does come up literally ALL the time. And people get astonishingly angry about it. I mean, they get excessively angry just about threads being moved, but the assumption is by and large that they are actually deleted. A...

But just think of the rage if they were to remove cat food but *gasp* leave the dog food in! I'm not sure TFP would survive!

I don't necessarily mind the biomes being mixed around, but I would love to see them be bigger. Having a patch of one biome that isn't much bigger than two houses is a bit jarring, especially when there are such clear and obvious differences between them and their weather. That adjustment to...

It did that in A16. I don't remember if it was because of the light being on when somebody logged out or if it was just from being near one another? Thinking it was logging in and out that fixed it but I do remember it happening and correcting it.

See now this is the sort of thing that just baffles me how anybody could come up with a design like that. How is there any basis in any sort of physical world in which any of that makes sense? For example: I just jumped. There's people awake within 15 feet of me. No one heard it. I guess I...

As I recall, TFP had stated(believe them if you will) that they would release it on a Monday for the masses either way, the early release for streamers is just that -- early so streamers can build hype and convince new people to buy(and a few "old" people to come back to) a game that has been...

You can use a controller with the PC version too(an XBox pad should connect easily). It works all right outside of a couple quirks and a missing command or two. Mouse and kb is surely "better" and gives you the best balance of accurate and also quick look movements(adjust mouse sensitivity to...

These sorts of things should very much happen.

Hopefully that will help change it from "every time I loot a house/spend time working in my base those stupid hordes full of zombies I've killed a million of start smashing through the walls and annoying me" to "every time I get lost in doing things for a while and then go back outside there's...

I do like the concept of having perks unlock noticeable new abilities, while your basic abilities improve from doing. It also adds to the excitement of buying perks as you progress through the game. "I can do something new now!" is a good bit more exciting than "I can harvest 3% more resources...
