Sure thing Gazz. Pausing and waiting for stamina is a great game experiance.Maybe you could prolong all loot timers to 30sec and add a 30sec animation when reloading the bow as well.

Oh and dont forget to make aiming almost impossible so it will take at least 5 min to kill a zombie.

That way we can really enjoy "playing" the game :)

Dramatic much?

I never have problems with my stamina. Don't know what you're doing, but you're probably doing it wrong

 
I think it would be a good idea to make the difficulty setting affect most options (how much loot, how fast the zombies are, etc.) for new players.

Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large numbers.

Or something like that. ;)

so the description is not accurate it states any bladed item.

So the problem is the use of the word "bladed" instead of "edged"? =)

I know that it would technically be more accurate but it seems a bit less common use...

ok but each description states "Harvest 10% more resources from animals using any bladed tool or weapon." so what bladed tools other then Axe? I have actually skinned and hunted most of my life and a sharp axe is as good as anything.

Lol there have been so many different people whining on in here over the past few weeks with their complaints, it's difficult to say that that one is the number one.

But no, I don't have problems with it. Maybe people have difficulties adjusting to a new way of playing. Since i hadn't played the game for 10 months I'm probably not stuck in an a16-way of playing. Just thinking out loud here.

Nah I'm of the opinion that rocks are beautiful on their own, and don't need a stick and some grass fibers to make them look pretty ^^

Have to agree with you. Stamina is not an issue for me either. Obviously I have to manage it for a few days but then after spending a few perks, I rarely think about it again. Seems realistic and is just my experience thus far.

I'm just trying to identify the problem.

No. so here is my take on this having real life experience...

1. Since the game allows me to harvest animals with Stone Axe, fireaxe, Shiv, knife, machete, then all of them should be treated as such and have the perk applied.

2. Now IRL a stone axe would not harvest as clean but I could still get similar cuts of meat and historically a stone edge was used to skin. So some tools are better then others. so I would like what you define as a edge tool to be consistent.

back to Identifying the problem: All items that can be used to harvest outside of the perk should be affected by the perk. if that is not the TFP direction then you need to re-define what is an edge/blade tool and probably reclass the stone axe as part of that.

many players in the game since A17 first game out have assumed that the fireaxe was included in the Huntsman perk and from what I can tell it is not.

I was at the pub last night and that this would have been a great conversation to be had over a pint or three of smithwicks :)

Well, that's an entirely different kind of issue. Words are important. ;)

Axes were and are included. I don't see why it should not work.

I will try again, I was sure my Machete was harvesting more from a boar then my Firexaxe - both T5 but that should not matter

 
I hope that it will be made so the Stamina will be 100 instead of 99 when overfed. Drives me nuts that you can't get 100 stamina. :tongue-new:

I'd say Knives or Machettes. Those have blades. I never thought of an axe having a blade. The word Edge comes to mind much easier. I say they should change bladed to edged and include axes imo.

I think they’re working on making it so it will say what it actually is up to 150% and your max will stay glued to the right until it dips below 100%. At any rate, making it apparent that food and water can exceed the end of the bar is one of their tasks.

 
So annoying when you die because of a zombie and you immediately start bleeding when you come alive again. Happened to me a few times now...

And a weird thing happened just now... 1 zombie on the floor, 3 behind the homecinema screen breaking out... all 4 coming towards me. I shot 1 of them with the crossbow, not even lethal as far as I could tell, yet all 4 of them die and drop in slowmotion to the floor. 1 of them dropped a yellow backpack.
