    Define your idea of Survival in This game...

    To me, survival means starting with nothing and becoming self-sufficient. In this game, that means gathering resources, building a base, farming, and crafting items. These elements are still present in the game, but they have been streamlined, and you don't spend as much time on them as you used to.

    Question for the Pimps

    Since the FunPimps aren't known for providing direct answers, I have the following question: Are the Biome Badges just placeholders for an upcoming system?

    I have the wasteland treasures acid book and wrenched five ambulances and got four acid.

    I'm on day 22 and still don't have the book. Overall, the drop rate seems okay in my current playthrough. I used five acid to craft my chemistry station, and I currently have six acid. I will probably use five of them to make smoothies for the Wasteland.

    Why remove all difficulties from game?

    That won't happen. The particle effects of flames significantly impact FPS. This might be acceptable on gaming PCs, but not on consoles.

    The fun pimps are holding a 2.0 town hall discussion. Try to attend it.

    They have closer contact with the community. When a few thousand players talk at once, it's pure chaos. Some players have unrealistic expectations. I think the content creators could filter out a lot of the noise. Typically, a community manager would handle this, but Fun Pimps doesn't have one...

    The fun pimps are holding a 2.0 town hall discussion. Try to attend it.

    It might be helpful to invite some of the content creators who commented on the 2.0 situation. I believe they could represent the community quite well. JaWoodle, JustRob, Spartan-85, and Temreki (from Guns Nerds and Steel) come to mind. If they are in the chat, perhaps the moderators could give...

    I went and tried a Badge Run.

    You either spawned close to the burnt biome or your forest biome isn't particularly large if you were already in the burnt biome at 1 p.m. on day one. In my current playthrough, I spawned relatively close to the wasteland. That's why the first airdrop landed in the wasteland. I went in, grabbed...

    Drone hover altitude

    It would be great if it could hover one block higher. However, I'm afraid it would hit the ceiling at most residential POIs. Fortunately, players can't damage the drone. Otherwise, I would have destroyed it many times by accident during battles.

    Weapon Repair Degradation – Encourage Arsenal Variety

    Such additions are typically implemented as mods. The developers have their own ideas about how the game should look, so it's rare for them to implement community suggestions. However, they allow players to customize many aspects of the game with mods. The final version will likely have Steam...

    Weapon Repair Degradation – Encourage Arsenal Variety

    The problem is that not everyone is so enthusiastic about exploring and looting. I am someone who prefers to build rather than drive around looking for parts. For me, looting and exploring is more of a chore than something I enjoy doing. Back in Alpha 16, that wasn't a problem, even with weapon...

    Weapon Repair Degradation – Encourage Arsenal Variety

    That was at a time when we didn't have 6 quality levels but 600, and weapon parts that could be replaced. In addition, parts could be combined in the workbench to increase quality. The last alpha with this feature was Alpha 16. I guess it was too complex. So the weapon parts were simplified to...

    So traders gonna be pushing DLC armor? Basically in game ads.

    You're creating a conspiracy theory out of one word in an meaningless sentence that most people ignore. Calm down. So far, none of the Fun Pimps' actions have suggested that they would take this path. For JaWoodle, it's likely just another running gag, similar to his childish dislike of the Stun...

    So traders gonna be pushing DLC armor? Basically in game ads.

    If JaWoodle hadn't thrown a tantrum, I don't think anyone would've noticed the name of one of the DLC skins in the voiceline. What JaWoodle and apparently most viewers didn't realize is that two other armors are mentioned in the same voiceline.

    So traders gonna be pushing DLC armor? Basically in game ads.

    The voice line mentions three types of armor, only one of which is a DLC. They are the Miner, the Hoarder, and the Assassin, in that order. If this were an advertisement for the DLC, I would expect all three DLC armor pieces to be mentioned. Therefore, I assume the voiceline was recorded before...

    Brass

    The most reliable source are your coins. Sell as much as you can and then melt down the coins. If you need a money then just mine stone and sell it. Or pick flowers. You can make an impressive amount of money that way. The thing that makes the most money with the least effort at the moment are...
