I actually miss the theme from Alpha 15 

I dislike that some perks are arbitrarily bundled. For example, master chef and mining, mining and shotguns, etc. I wish there was more independence. For example, I really like to mine, but I also would love to use bows and crossbows or rifles. Similarly, my brother likes building and farming...

I don't know if it classifies as pet peeve, and it's probably beating a dead horse at this point, but I really dislike that Learn by Doing was removed. Like, it doesn't prevent me from playing, or anything, but it just removed a layer of progression that I liked and all actions have become a...

I started playing on 120 minute days because it was less time pressing. I could take a break any moment without feeling that I'm missing time. We had an MP game of two people so pause wasn't an option. We also liked to venture out far and still have time to come back. The problem we found was...

"Learn by doing". I know that some people don't like it, because of spam crafting, but I think it's nothing that can't be solved by a good design. For example, diminishing returns or internal upskill cooldown for crafting, so that you wouldn't notice it unless you went out of your way to spam...

Haven't lost a vehicle in 17.2 although I started taking then into belt a lot. But the jeep that was made by someone else which I can't pickup so far still exists.

I'm new to the forum, played since Alpha 15.1. I liked LBD system because it gave depth to mundane stuff you did. Sprinting from goal to goal felt a little bit more satisfying knowing that it levels you athletism a bit more and helps stamina gain. Using weapons and gaining skill was fun. And...

I'm glad they don't increase damage. The way they are not a necessity helps ease the restriction to one weapon.

I'm running it on GTX 770 (4Gb), i7 4770k and a lot of Ram (32Gb), and I have to turn off shadows, reflections, ssao, motion blur, although I have textures on high, because I can't stand blurry textures. Getting around 50-60 fps most of the time, down to 30 in worst conditions. In prior alphas...

I like stamina. Even in mining it makes getting Sexual Tyrannosaurus perk so much more rewarding when you can finally swing full time. The stamina loss in the beginning is the problem. It used to be so that you got some stamina regen via athetism perk that you could earn by just running, but...

Main advantage is easy water. It also feels more rewarding to find a shelter there. All other biomes don't feel as cosy indoors.

It's all about blood moons. I think Alpha 15 zombies were perfect. Some pathing, nothing too crazy, but not getting stuck like in A16. A17 blood moons enforce "cheese meta" too much, takes me out of the game. Imagine if in an rpg game enemies would choose to do massive attacks of...

Some of the commenters are completely clueless there. "5 years, FIVE F...ING YEARS!!!! And a game still in alpha.....", "You stole the money from all the backers....." Did this guy try to play? Each alpha is like a free WoW expansion, a lot changes, new gameplays emerge. If anything, everyone...

I only played 15 and 16, but I liked 15 more I think. Mainly because of leveling system, I liked to level perks by doing stuff. And it was our first alpha, we made a cosy base didn't think of metagame.

Me and friends purchased it in around December 2016, when it was Alpha 15.2 or 3. Still having memories from that save, we turned large winter POI into a base, was very cosy.
