    PC Alpha 18 Dev Diary!!

    What. You’re focusing on the 20-30 hr player and later you’ll focus on the 100+ hr player?? What about the 31-99 hr player, MadMole?. JK! I’m really in favour of the 20-30 hr focus as I (and my mates) play “dead is dead” and I see those early hours quite a lot... well I did in A17. But there...

    PC Why you broke your game

    I think this argument - which I’ve heard from others - is missing the whole point of experimental! This is EXACTLY the right time to cry about balance issues! TFP are actively looking for this sort of feedback now (or if they aren’t, they’re missing a trick). Experimental is the time when...

    PC Altpha 17 - Swing and a huge miss!!

    I feel *some* empathy with the original poster though I’m suspicious some of the things he said are a tiny bit exaggerated(?) People saying “it’s a different game, you have to relearn it” are, to me, missing one important point. There’s no good argument why playing at *default* difficulty...

    PC Difficulty to high at level 30?

    Thanks for your (earlier) tip about this. Me and my brother (who both play SP and have always played”nomad” before) are trying Adventurer in b208 after a less than enjoyable play through with b199. So far it feels like it plays better. I don’t have a problem with the existence of higher...

    Hi dizzy, I think I can answer this (though not explain it!) The dmg 7 shotgun is loaded, the dmg 100 one is unloaded. I had two shotguns myself, unloaded one before selling it then thought why am I selling this it’s much better than the other one :) Yeah, it’s daft... feel free to raise a...

    PC Food woes in alpha 17

    I have the hunting (extra meat harvest) perk, and a machete. However animals don’t seem all that common. Baked potatoes as I mentioned elsewhere are almost useless (not that there is a single field in my town!) they give 4 fullness and ZERO max stamina healing. Given that the issue is max...

    PC Food woes in alpha 17

    Im using my eggs to make bacon and eggs. I don’t think hard boiled eggs are a match for that, doing the maths. But clearing the destroyed ground from around my POI base so they can’t get onto the second floor cost me all five of my stock of bacon and eggs just to repair the max stamina damage...

    PC Food woes in alpha 17

    I’d love to hear an explanation from the pimps of why they thought it was a good idea to choke the supply of food and simultaneously increase the requirement for food all at one go? More food needed - to repair max stamina damage (or just just have a boring game because you can’t do anything)...

    PC After 4000 hours with a11-a16, I won't spend much time in a17x. Here's why... no fun!

    I agreed with a lot of (but not all of) what the original poster said. Here are some of the things that are sucking the fun out of A17 for me: Frame rate — In A16 I was getting a constant 60 FPS out of my Nvidia 770 GTX (Yes, I know it’s old, but I had the settings at a mid-level and that is...

    I love it, but straight off I can see two problems 1) undermining a city like this would cause SI problems in the buildings above and 2) Madmole has said that they are removing the turds from A17 :rip:
