    Probably because fat is a great fire starter.  Plus another way to limit food, eat good food or burn undead.

    Oh it's not single wide, the choke point is just a reinforced doorway.  So if they break through I'm surrounded pretty quickly..  I don't get into building elaborate horde bases since I know they'll get wrecked at some point.  Plus when I play SP I almost always play semi-nomad with no loot...

    I have a backup but I don't do the row of hatches. Just a fall back position with another hatch and then a escape route if that fails.  I typically build my horde base at one of the office building ruins that are at least two floors high and then provide easy access for the zeds to my choke...

    Don't worry they get through, at least dogs, wolves, and spider zombies do.  I use the hatch as a half door on my horde base and stand behind it playing whack-a-zed, though they whack me back plenty.  Very often if I'm not paying enough attention the above mentioned will get through the hatch...

    Yes he did and a few variant uses.  My favorite was using it as a "draw bridge" to get into JaWoodle park.

    YES please!!! I know the small square orients the hatch some way but I never remember which way and invariably place it wrong and have to tear it out and hope I get it right the next time.  Instead I've given up on placing iron hatches and just upgrade wood to iron.  More materials but at least...

    PC Item stats vary between same-quality items

    This is the new RNG for all equipment that came into play with A18 and as designed. All items now have a range for damage, durability, etc. and as you have noticed you can get "better" equipment with worse stats. For example a level 4 primitive bow can have a damage range of 15-30 and a level...

    If you want to stick with a 7.62 caliber go with the SAKO TRG 42. Otherwise go with the McMillan TAC-50 for .50 cal goodness.

    I agree that a game having complexity is fun. However having everything being complex just for the sake of it isn't. There is a balance to it all and not everything needs to be complex.

    You're not "everyone" and neither is your opinion.

    Wow, just wow. The vocal minority is at is again over farming and food. Yes food is an aspect of the game but it isn't the be all end all. I'm looking forward to the new farm boxes. The old ways worked but as Madmole said were clunky and hard to explain. Hell I was in a game with veterans...

    Problem with this method in multiplayer. What happens if another player is in the POI as a quest or just raiding it and you get close and suddenly the POI resets on them?

    The Rage speed boost doesn't make them suddenly go from walk to sprint. @madmole stated that the speed boost is not even to the next speed level but about half way between their set speed and the next level. So walking would speed up to be faster than walking but slower than jog, etc...
