@Madmole
Have you or anyone else on the team discussed having a zone on the map that upon entering it lets say, a count down timer starts at 30 seconds so. If you are still within this "zone" when the timer reachers 0 it triggers a bloodmoon and never stops until the player leaves the zone?

Well, there is a green-tinted guacamole-moon when you enter the radiation zone. And your health counts down nicely and something is triggered when it reaches 0

Check, check and check

Edit: Within this zone can contain the possibility for higher level loot. Also this zone will only spawn half the amount of the BM zombie count. This way it will still be possbile to loot but with a real challenge. This would be effected by the setting chosen for BM max zombie count on the server setting.

We're planning a difficult wasteland.

 
No but 8 MF's is looking good.

Lets say a miracle happens and all MF got delt with and no more popped up and everything meets your standards for release, lets say by friday and Hated gives the thumbs up as well. Will you green light an earlier release of A18 than the original goal of early sept?

Rad debuff can pop out, 1% gives you 99% health, 99% gives you 1% health. So you are weakened the more radiation you soak up and have to manage it with meds and health kits once medicated.

EDit: I think that is exactly how fallouts is lol, I'd have to check.

 
I'm not quite a regular here, and missed the other posts but something tells me it has to do with Snowdog?

Hellooo...You come here often?

You're not taking him away from me!

 
@madmole Perhaps for later tier quests (5, or even 4) the trader could have a low chance of rewarding you with a piece of hazmat gear, or some pills to assist you surviving in the radiation in the wasteland? Or a recipe to craft a special pill(s) designed specifically for this purpose?

Edit: Another two higher tier quest item suggestions: "food packs" or "medical packs". These would contain a random assortment of food or medical supplies (respectictively). For instance, in a medical pack, you might rewarded you with two first aid bandages, two painkillers, one herbal antibiotics, and three Fortbites, for example. A "food pack" might reward you with one meat stew, one hobo stew, two chili dogs, and some dog food, for example. The loot tables of these "packs" could also be redistributed for lower tier quests.

Yeah, Bs.As. always has a bad weather, I don't know why.

How was your stay in Argentina?

Pretty good Spanish btw. It's not perfect, but maybe we can both meet with snowdog some day and...I'll teach you some things...

What is the logic behind removing the axe as a melee weapon in a18?
Click to expand...
Its just not your one stop skinning/door demolishing/murdering OP tool any more. Its a tool. Its still a decent melee in a pinch if your doing a strength build and don't care a ton about melee combat I'd skip club perks completely and just use an axe with the miner perks and you'll do just fine. Leaves more points for shotgun messiah, etc. Its not bad at all, its just not the best damn thing in the game any more. Its governed under mining, not a combat related perk like everything else has. Made it a no brainer to go with axes before we made this change.
