See my issue I'm very concerned for wild life. The bugs and animals need grass to live. Plus can you imagine what Neebs is going to say when he finds out about this? that dude loves animals and I think he would agree. The animals need grass. Its the end of the world man the least they can have is a good meal to eat before a zombie eats um. R.I.P hungry cows, if only they had grass... :( . =P

Ya know, you *could* make that switch from boy to man and use a keyboard and mouse... :)

I used to play that way when I was on a desktop at a desk, but with a wireless keyboard that cuts out 5% of the time 10 feet from a 75" 4k tv on a couch, its just not happening. Wireless keyboards aren't really designed to be used well at any distance away. Marci gets the 65" and a desk. (Thats what I use to work on and for modding.)

(I probably played b/mouse for like 13-20 years, but even my old atari and amiga computers had Wico Bat handle joysticks, just like the arcade sticks. They were built so well that now almost 40 years later they still work great!)

The game advertises full controller support, and it USED to have it properly.. it broke it either a16 or 17, and none of the testers were really even using them, so no one really saw the issue. They all seem to think someone else fixed it, but I don't even know if it was written up properly as a bug, even though I've reported it like 15 times.

but without grass the bugs have no overhead protection from rain...and nothing to climb should it rain hard. If all the bugs die then you have cannot have your favorite meal of, hand full of maggots. See grass is essential, it makes the world go round lol.

 
I doubt the saw is in a18 with the new shape menu thingie, but it's not even so much that I expect tires to be functional if found, it's more that the recipe is REALLY weird, and could be better.
...no one finds it odd that the biggest hold up go getting vehicles is acid for wheels?

In the real world, maybe. I'm not into rubber refining or reshaping.

In 7d2d world.. i wouldn't even blink if it required glass and nails. Their logic have brought me many a chuckle and facepalms over the years. I still think shooting the casings instead of the bullets was the best.

Weird? Maybe, but I collect all sorts of crap in other games to make something, so its just a game mechanic to me. It could be called acid, rubber cement, they could use tar, black dye, rubber, whatever.. its just a resource I need to gather to make them, and I don;t really care too much what its called.

I figured they would rename the resource at some point to something more logical once they nail all the real harder work.

ahhh I never have issues with collecting enough acid for tire crafting by the time I am ready to make a vehicle. From day 1 I always collect every bottle of acid I come across. I can only remember one time in A17 where I was 1 short of acid and had to go looking for it.

 
Can't divide on zero, and can't break what is not there.
disclaimer:


Immersion might be better in A18, at least the soundtrack.

hundreds of random POIs with no grass kills immersion thus A18 will be the least immersive out of the last few alphas. although you make a good point about music but I fear not even the music can make up for that eye sore.

 
Use the search to filter and read Fataal's posts. Why to do expect me to do the work you should be doing yourself?

because its always a good thing to ask a person that is claiming something for proof. More often than not players just run there mouth like they know what they are saying when they do not. That or you have those players that just love believing what someone says without proof. If I ask someone to provide a link or proof for a claim they are making and they do not, that tells me that person is full of ♥♥♥♥. I'm not saying you are, just sayin.

These are very good points. People tend to get hung up on the little crap that does not matter.

 
Wheels are the weirdest thing in the game... There's about a billion of then lying around, that you can't use because they turn to plastic, but you can make one from scratch with plastic, coal and acid? Doesn't make any kind of sense... It's like they forced wheels into a 7day world with no additional items...
A pickup, repair situation would have been much better. Find/craft tire patches, add an air compressor station (be no more useless than a table saw)...

incorrect about a billion of them lying around... what you see are tires not wheels. :)
