Thanks. We're supposedly 96% animal instincts and the elite are the ones who try hard to use the 4% human part, reasoning, compassion, wanting to be better, etc. Some people are genuinely in love with overly complicated mechanics. Thankfully there is nothing else on the radar to change that wouldn't be a unanimous improvement.
I don't use mods on Bethesda games until playing through once or twice on vanilla, then I'm super picky and careful about what mods I add, and only add one at a time so I can screen for bugs. I want to know their vanilla design 200% before changing anything. Usually its mods to make the game harder or QOL mods.
YOu know I'm on day 1, in the snow biome at night in a hole in the ground digging buried treasure. For some reason when I clicked your link I was worried about it being a video making noise that the zombies might hear. I always thought it would be cool if voice to chat or discord noise was picked up on and the zombies could hear it, that it would be cool AF to watch streamers whisper and stuff.
That feels like advertising a dumb down.
Yeah, I get that. But if this could be looked into sometime (unless you can't due to balance reasons), that would be excellent. Using 9 bullet proof glass panes, for instance, to repair one damaged (placed) bullet proof glass pane... It's very unusual and expensive to say the least. Lol
Wow, those plots are much better. I usually put a few crops on my roof and this blends in much better. The hoe was such a waste. I broke it down after I got what I needed. Plus now I can start planting those seeds as soon as I find them as the ingredients aren't too difficult to find.ok peeps.. i decided to go ahead and jump back a build or so and show you a tad bit about the farm plot..
i hope it shows you what you are asking about, i thought i covered what was needed... one thing i forgot to show you was.. you can paint the plots too.. i did do a screen shot. enjoy
the plot is a 1 m block.

I added Joe’s video link to Madmole’s initial posts on this subject so we can hopefully avoid catchup reactions from people who feel they must reply before reading the whole thread and eventually getting to Joe’s video. I think the video demonstrates that the new system is worthy and if people can watch it at the moment that Madmole originally stated “the hoe is gone” it will spare us a whole lotta angst over the next few days.
I will wait to see it implemented since I also don't have enough time to read all the posts - but you give me the impression that you think streamlining everything to oblivion is the secret sauce of game design, not to mention that you constantly voice your concern about whether the lowest common denominator of a player, with a perceived IQ of 50, can learn a mechanic. If that becomes the case, sit down for a moment and think - how will that influence the rest of the players? I don't claim to know what's right, just hope you are able to recognize which kinds of complexity are actually valuable for gameplay.
I've stated that farming is a low reward activity multiple times now, and I've mentioned more advanced recipes are now more complex several times. The new farming is arguably no less complicated before, but definitely more accessible and less clunky. Why complicate things? Why need a forge to get started farming? ITs not like farming is some OP ability, it makes food very slowly. We'll make the game more challenging in good ways, where the reward is worth it all the effort.
I’m pretty sure you can. What I meant is that it isn’t as good to use as it once was. Gaining access to hops and growing them for beer was an ultimate goal at one time. Coffee is pretty good, and IMO better to use than beer is now, but not like how beer used to be.
I aggree. Can plant boxes be placed horizontally or even upside down ? It is absolutely necessary for my new architectural style combining Gaudi's naturalism with M.C.Escher's topology.
I love it when people start a dialog with themselves via alternate account :smile-new:
