Yeah, all at 1.9 would suck, but if its a spread like the trader rekt screenshot above, looks good to me.

I suggest you send a peace offering or make a ritualistic sacrifice to the RNG-esus every time you want to go questing then. ;)

Play in a 4k world and everything is closer. People want 8k worlds because they want to travel but then get mad when they....have to travel. ;)

I'm only mad because my character doesn't start off with a segway for easy and efficient transport. ;)

 
So @Roland What is your zombie max alive for horde nights? It'd better be 64 or you're just farming zeds for XP that pose no legitimate threat to you. ;)

Just a tip for people whose game is eating up too much RAM; you should restart the game after creating a new game/map. The map-making still uses some extra ram, even after the creation of the game (or something like that, at least).

 
My game settings are default except for mark air drops on map and I personally like getting 2 perk points per level, but other than that, everything is vanilla. I saw that there is an update for no crosshairs while aiming over on nexus, so I’ll probably slap that on when I get home later.

(This is an edited version of the original reply to Joel's comment to my "feedback" on the game.)

Hello, sir Madmole

I am glad that you are thankful about the "feedback" I gave, but if I may. What do you think about the more "hardcore" feature I talked about, with it becoming more and more difficult as you go on that should bring a sense of "decay" to the world as you progress over time.

I was talking about 4k. Not enough memory for 8k, ya know. You can get far away quests in 4k too. Specially at the higher tiers. The difference of course is that 8k sends you to Mars more often than not.

Sometimes I loot an entire nearby building without being told to go there by a trader and I get some pretty good loot AND the trader still buys it from me....

Sorry, I can only do what the trader tells me. The game is kind of boring though, since I've been standing here for 3 months and this trader has said nothing.
 

Wait...nevermind...this is a tree.

At higher tiers? If you don't have at least a minibike at higher tiers, the Duke has a job as dishwasher for you 😀

It seems we cant overeat anymore, is this intended or a bug?

It would logically be intended. Otherwise you'd have players overeating/overdrinking and not having to consume supplement again for a rather lengthy, if not unbalanced, amount of time.

What if the rest of us are concerned about pollution? ;)

I know you were joshing R, so not taking this out of context, but it does raise the question/issue.

I generally play 8k worlds _mostly_ to increase the chance of a Crack-a-Book tower or at least a Large CaB. That's really the main driver for me.

Not playing A19exp yet so no idea, have they added/changed any POIs so there are other 'good' places to loot books?

i gen ed a good 8k seed and then manually added the prefabs missing

A19.0_2020-06-29_23-33-17.jpg

 
hmm.., that's not a bad idea @Laz Man while I've only recently played around a bit with prefab/world editor (and region reset bits) think I've got the basics enough to handle that. And it would beat gen'ing a map, search poi xml for skyscraper_02, if none, gen another map... 😒  Thanks for the idea :)

Edit: would still be nice to have a couple more 'book' poi in vanilla, imo of course, like a small town or rural library.. heck most grocery stores have magazines and books for sale, so a couple few book cases in Shamway wouldn't actually be out of place.

What? All my quests are 300 meters to 1 km at most.  BTW, the game plays just fine without using traders.

Mine have a lot above 1k. My entire Day 1 list was 1.1km - 1.7km (they were all clears and fetches). It was kind of weird because the town my trader was in had a lot of tier 1 POIs.

This was in MP, so there may have been collisions with other player quests?
