While some players focus purely on function of their base, there are those of us that like decorating and turning our bases into “homes”. A way to escape the apocalypse in a sanctuary of our own making.
This suggestion is for additions that I feel would make excellent additions to the base game (after all, we console players are only able to access what is on the core game).
Mechanics:
- when within a the area of a land claim block, and NOT being attacked, the volume of weather effects and other noises is reduced. The reason for this is many players can’t stand building in the burned lands and wasteland because of the atmosphere. It’s meant to be dark and kinda depressing, but that doesn’t mean players shouldn’t be able to build a base that makes it more tolerable.
- Be able to make some kind of block, or even a “mod” for the land claim block that turns the area into a pocket of pine forest region (and other zones) So players can make an oasis for themselves.
- Working on some ideas with my buddies for a “plumbing system” suggestion, so that may be posted in future.
Structures:
- a Double wide spiral staircase piece, we definitely like the idea of spiral staircase, but because it’s so small, it’s hard to get up and down in it’s current option.
- More pieces similar to the Ballustrade, where it’s a more complex object, and can be used for a ton of different parts (I use it as a major design piece for everything from fancy side tables, to post bases, and am even working on a fancy base look that relies on them.
- More paints. There is a decent selection to choose from, but we could always do with more color! Personal favorites that I would like to see more similar include things like concrete trim, yellow wallpaper (which on the right blocks kind of looks like gold trim), and reinforced wood (which again looks phenomenal on certain blocks, even railings surprisingly!) Perhaps different types of metals? Like oxidized copper, brass, Damascus steel, etc?
Sound System/ Record Player:
I’d love to see this hit numerous different elements. At the core being that you can collect various “records” which you can consume like you would a skill book. This would unlock various types of music within the game. Doesn’t even need lyrics or anything, house music, rock, R&B, reggae, jazz, etc. (spawn locations according to various types of POI).
With this acquired music knowledge, players can build record players, or sound system blocks (with electricity, and connect extra speakers to it, giving speakers more purpose than just alarms).
These suggestions aren’t necessities, but would definitely add to the game in a positive way.
