If that's your opinion, then you'll just have to accept players complaining, "I can't do anything during a storm." If players take damage just 10 seconds after leaving a protected area, hardly anyone will want to go outside or look for another protected area. They'll just stay inside, twiddle...

That's exactly the point! Storms currently cause direct damage and can be deadly if you do nothing. You can counter-heal, but it's ridiculous that you have to constantly do so just to be outside. If one or more debuffs put you at a disadvantage instead, however, you'd be less hesitant to go...

If you think debuffs are so lame, why do we have them at all? Zombies already move faster in a storm and have Feral Sense. For anyone who doesn't play on Insane Nightmare with Feral Sense, this means that the environment is much more dangerous during a storm. If you have a debuff in addition...

Bummer. It would make the 4x4 more useful. Currently, most players are likely to travel by motorcycle or gyrocopter for long distances. I hardly know any players who use a 4x4 just for the extra storage space because the 4x4 is bulkier and feels like it uses more fuel than the motorcycle.

For a moment, put yourself in the zombie's shoes. You see someone wearing armor and carrying weapons. That person could be violent and a bit crazy. This is not exactly the kind of person you would ask if you could eat their brain. ;)

It seems to me that someone has seen JaWoodle's latest video featuring the 4x4. His storm mod has the same feature.

I don't have exact numbers on how often this happens. Sometimes the storm rages outside while I'm in the middle of a quest, and by the time I finish the quest, it's already over. But there have also been cases where I had to change my plans because I couldn't enter the biome without taking...

I could do that, but I'm not a big fan of exploring. I'm usually either on my way to or from a quest. On the way back, my inventory is usually full anyway. On the way to a quest, however, I prefer to keep my inventory free. The last time I left something in a box, it stayed there for weeks.

It always depends on the circumstances, though. For example, if I'm caught in a storm at the end of a quest, I'll just wrench the interior. Unless my inventory is full, then there's not much I can do. Recently, I was caught in a storm at the end of a quest in Grover High. Luckily, I was only...

Yes, 7 Days Suites is one of the places of interest I avoid. Another is the Stand Tower. Fortunately, newer points of interest, such as the two T5 mines, are a bit more straightforward.

So, in order for the horde night to end early, you have to kill the first two waves and then another 999 zombies in the third wave? Challenge accepted. ;)

I never explore POIs without a quest or a reason. Even before quests existed, I only focused on POIs that might offer something useful to me. I'm very much a pragmatist when it comes to that.

There might be a way to limit loot without losing realism. For example, if you only got parts or broken gear from bandits most of the time. Imagine that you kill a bandit with an AK-47, but you only get a completely broken AK-47 that cannot be repaired. You could only scrap it for parts.

Goals usually come with a story, but we don't have one yet. Until we have a story, we have to set ourselves a goal.

I think it's like the difference between people who have thousands of emails in their inbox and those who sort their emails into folders.
