At least shes wearing her boots right

I ask Faatal questions and he usually answers me because he's a nice guy.

Your jokes are unnecessary and not welcomed.

Yes Sir!

 

[4sheetzngeegles]

Sounds like my ex!

You too. I thought I was the only one that had rolled snake eyes.

Here's another view of old Jen, new Jen, for comparison:

Waist land diet maybe? I like the lighting though.

@faatal If and this is a big if. If you add a canteen, would it be possible to set it so
it could be tiered, needing "random" drops from upper tier entities, but not during
a blood moon. An example The cops, mainly because until a player can do enough
DPS they explode which naturally decreases, just getting an instant MacGuffin, and
others like a screamer, and the demo guy. Progressively rarer entities, to get the spleen,
or gland or stomach. Or which ever part is added to the recipe.

When used at a campfire instead of a jar, there would be an outline of a pot that
fills with yellow depending on volume, sort of like taking the stamina meter and turning
it vertical, when complete it turns blue, can only be siphoned when complete, so multiple
pots could be added to the fire, one filled with emergency rations, the other just for volume
processing. Then when clicked it fills the canteen representation the same way.

That sounds confusing and weird.

its nice they add new models, but cant they give the traders more...things to do? They only stand around all the time doing nothing, let them walk around in their POI, check on things, eat, sleep etc.

Like someone else said, they feel like reskinned vending machines, spitting out quests.

Give them more behaviors. Would be cool.

 

[IzPrebuilt]

The exact people who were calling Jarheads nitpickers are now complaining about Jen's booty (which we never see in-game)


But that's none of my business

 

[Quagmire1428]

That sounds confusing and weird.

@faatal Not that i am concerned either way but if a canteen were to be added, then in my mind I think keeping it simple would be better. Tier 1 (cloth or hide pouch) = 1 or 2 jars of water worth. Tier 2 = (metal, military type) 4 jars worth. Simply filled by placing in a dew collector and allowing to fill over a specific time. simples. Similar to what most other survival game do.

 

[Motimus Prime]

Hopefully new! Maybe something like "defend the supplies" like a mini horde night, or maybe "deliver these supplies to X location"

Those both sounds great!! Maybe put that in the Pimp Dreams forum?

 

[4sheetzngeegles]

That sounds confusing and weird.

Which part is weird and confusing?
Filling the pot and just representing water as a colored square,
or emptying the pot in the same fashion and not using a jar icon?

Or was it the thought of using more than 1 pot?

The image i wrote about regarding showing volume, is the same
vertical type bar that is used with the Dew Collector now as it fills.

Or is it the way that I expressed it?

 

[Outlaw_187]

This is kind of a shame. ..butt, progress and stuff I guess.

Guess im spoiled lmao

Хорошо, что добавляют новые модели, но нельзя ли дать торговцам больше... занятий? Они все время стоят без дела, пусть ходят по своим локациям, проверяют, что происходит, едят, спят и так далее.

Как уже кто-то сказал, они похожи на переделанные торговые автоматы, выдающие задания.

Наделите их большим количеством поведенческих моделей. Было бы здорово.

I completely agree. Sounds very interesting!

Hey @faatal
What are the chances of us getting 2.5 Experimental today?
Would you say "not good", "50/50" or "very good". (All that while understanding that these are your views and not what might actually happen)

Thank you.

Yes, that brings back memories of some older updates, where I would be glued to the screen, pressing F5 every 2 minutes.

The new model is by far better. The proportions are more realistic. Old Jen's a bit dumpy looking...she's got saddle bags. The new one's in shape. Also, old Jen looks like she's made out of plastic...which some people might be into. I don't know.
