And you`re grounded to set your current game on horde night every night, for the hours you watched all that magic on YT. 😛

Funny you said that, my current world is indeed horde every night. 😛

I make a whole variety of delicious dishes if you're interested. :)  Cat food casserole, hamdoggers with cheese, sloppy meows, and bark chocolate for dessert.

Tbh, I am awaiting for my vacation soon to try that again, but alone. Probably won`t set it on insane, just wanna enjoy all I`ve missed. 

Will set it to 60 min, 7 days for drops (no markers), most probably at some point will switch to dead is dead, but after I get used with the new improvements that faatal added. And on a new seed. 

Hope you have good fun out there.

Agri snob much? 😜🤣 Seriously, meat (fish, beef, pork, or poultry) and gravy over toast/rice/hash browns/fries (chips to you barbaric anglophiles 🤣)/etc. is in the realm of "soup and sandwich" of god tier irl foods. :D  Especially if it's got shredded cheese on top.

Honestly some of the greatest foods on this Earth are made with the sole intention of poisoning someone but what comes out of all that effort is... something beautiful. I'm talking grounded beef smothered in liquid chocolate and coconut oil, wrapped in an omelet that came from the egg of emu roadkill, followed by it being dipped in tenderly roasted cat food and a collected puddle of the finest human sweat, with a delicious mixture of melted cheese and vinegar dunked on top. Exquisite. Scrumptious. A meal to die for.

Role Play is nice, but having an in game Character generator with strengths and weaknesses would be epic. dlc?  Examples:

"Click to Generate"

"Survivor Dixie Normas"

Traits:

+ Shamburger Helper (starts knowing a random food recipe)

+ Good Looking (gets a 1% discount at traders)

- Empty Headed (easily concussed)

- Bed Wetter (lose hydration 30% faster at night)

I agree, but you should not be able to reroll, not like most generators where you can essentially pick your poison

 
And this is relevant to A19 because... why not add this as a new super food? You could call it "Rekt's Slop", "The Great Tastebud Bamboozler", or simple "Trash".

1% discount for being good looking. You're not really selling me on that one. I'm thinking at least 10%.

See below answer from a friend of mine to your question. 😅

There's a difference between filling in an inconsistency and mindless fluff.

And yes, I know I'm a hypocrite. Do I give a #@&%? Nope.

Edit: And no, I don't really mind if that response will get me banned. It's whatever.

Eat dog food?  From the can...never...it's too important as a cooking ingredient.  I buy any and all I see from traders or vending machines in anticipation of finding that recipe.

Yeah, but even though they WILL add it. It's false advertisement at its current state, I actually got hyped for nothing (thinking they added more stuff in 19.0 after b180, but didn't show in the patch notes).

The new zombies (Party Girl, Business Guy and Hawaiian Shirt Guy) could (hopefully) make it in A19.1 or A19.2... Etc., so still new stuff in A19.x

Or do like me, just watch the screenshots over and over until we get them in game. 😁

Funny thing that, even when I do get the recipe (SP or MP with my wife) we never use/make the resulting elixir

Good to see the screenshot showing towers in Tier 5 quests. Must just be my map has no towers. I am limited to Shotgun Messiah Factory, Shamway factory, Hospital and the 6(?) story apartment building for Tier 5 quests.

 Doing these quests made me realize that doing the same quest types over and over was getting boring, even if the POI's were different. Would be good to see some variations such as :

--Clear POI XXX in under 60 minutes

--Clear POI while only using a bone shiv

--Etc

Grabbing the loot satchel doesn't really seem different enough from clearing the whole POI of zombies because always clear the whole POI anyways.

And then besides clearing POI's, how about some crafting quests and mining quests. Maybe not tier5 though, unless crafting requires an end game recipe.

--Deliver  10,000 iron to trader

--Deliver a crafted minibike to trader

etc, quest type variety is just as important to players as quest difficulty. Currently, from what I can see playing there is only dig quests, clear POI (with the variant of just grabbing the satchel supplies from the POI). 

The dig quests are enjoyable to me, but sadly dig quests stop at tier 2.

Challenges and fetch quests that you have to work for could be kinda cool, if they worked on making it a thing i would be totally down for it

I agree. Any variety will be nice besides just clear/clear & retrieve and digging quests. 

I think I read somewhere this is on the "to do list".

Early Access games don't  really apply to false advertising  laws until the game goes gold and then they can easily bypass the laws by adding a "early build, content may change by release" and/or "content dependent on funding" disclaimer somewhere on the page.

Here's to hoping all the new eye candy makes it into one of the 19.x releases so the compliants from the peanut gallery are minimized...😅
