Not for zombies. Down the road I want to add an option to where only head trauma can kill a zombie.

Well, that's going to a long way down the road. Until you can have a max alive in the hundreds, allowing a bunch of dismembered zombies to fill up the living pool means an easy way to cheese POI headcounts.

 
I've noticed quite less of those small surface boulder nodes in your videos. (The ones that give you raw iron, stone, and usually lead, coal, and/or nitrate.) Have their spawn rates been reduced? It makes sense, since mining is a lot easier, but still, I thought I'd try to get a good scoop on this. :p

They only drop stone now, so yes they are massively reduced. They aren't even needed but look cool so we kept them. You'll have to find a mine of every type now to get started, but its not too hard. No more walmart rocks.

 
I really liked the video, it's nice you showed more aspects than just zombie killing.
Just one thing, which is really OCD inducing for me: Stamina is still always one digit less than the max cap. Are you planning to fix that in the future?
Click to expand...
Yes we can fix that I'm sure.

 
for an perc/int build, you haven't done much in int. beginning to look like perc/str build
Click to expand...
Yep, it started as a Perception build and after I got going I decided to do int too. Int can catch up later right now I need to get my combat groove on which is sorely lacking, my spreading myself thin like this sucks.

 
Sorry for that, you are right, MM. Yes I mistaked. But it is not a lie, this is mistake.

A lie is a deliberate distortion of information.

May be translation difficulties.

Yeah no offense meant. I'm pretty sure what you said was false or is fixed.

 
THIS ^^ I always wanted this option, sometimes killing a zombie with an arrow in the knee (See what I did there?) can be a little weird. Love this idea +100000

Yes we're all about easy to do options that add more simulation control that can add legs to the game. It would pair nice with a dead is dead mode.

Why would anyone not finish a zombie off? They all die of old age very quickly, so good luck cheesing it.

 
I hope you can come up with another way to get beakers. 2nd play through in a row I cant find one. Looted some small popin pills and that huge hospital with no luck cant make gunpowder or med kits.

God good luck man, In all my time playing A17 I only ever found 1. I always had to spend days visiting the trader or trading with someone online.

 
Yeah all my traders never have one to sell.
Click to expand...
I cannot remember ever actually buying one from a trader but man i would look at all 4 traders daily I do remember that, and getting pissed i would have to spend weeks in game trying to find a beaker.

I feel your pain man.

EDIT: I always blamed the game for hating on me and not giving me a beaker lol. I'm not sure if I just had the worst luck in the world or if its that hard for everyone.

Game hates us. Some people seem to have all the luck and get plenty. I think they are taking ours lol.

 
@Madmole

Even a perk one must invest in in order to unlock crafting a beaker would be nice. I would waste one point just to be able to craft a beaker vs spending up to a week in game searching.

EDIT: better yet a book! this way no need to waste a point :)

 
Hi! Long time listener, first time caller...

With the introduction of mines this way, are there any ideas for like "mine claims" like the land claim system for multiplayer servers?

 
Yes we're all about easy to do options that add more simulation control that can add legs to the game. It would pair nice with a dead is dead mode.

MM can you make the dump all to storage button for a18 experimental? This fast tweak will get you lots of love. Easy, clean. No belt. Good stuff.

Not a feature but just you making QOL nerd love with the community.

We might be open to dress and roleplay to ask you for that tweak Lol.

Low effort & a lot of replayability indeed, hardcore lovers will appreciate this a lot.
