Madigari Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Ah, alright. Just checking. I know when the reduced foraging during winter was mentioned, fishing was mentioned as well. So I didn't know for sure how far it went. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Bower Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Nerf to farming is really great, thank you. Has anyone tested sledgehammer and fatigue? Are we able to now spam swing the thing to kill players? I notice the thing practically one shots players if you hit them from behind with the thing.

Rathlord Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 So Florin, let's maybe focus on the future instead of the past. What could TIS do that would make the new system feel good for you? Are you willing to give it a chance or are you only willing to accept the old system back? As I mentioned elsewhere, would you be okay with having timed actions/inventory management quickly regenerate your exertion so that you're actually encouraged to do things in between slaying zombies/exploring? Spend some time in a house messing with inventory or cooking your raw food, or building something and exertion could come back up? The point of the system is to get you to do other things than fight or run, and it sounds like that's what you do/want to do as well. I honestly do want to work with you and anyone else who doesn't like the current iteration to get something worked out we can all enjoy. I apologize if I'm coming off blunt, that's not my intent. The current system is something I've been asking for for a long time so I hope you can understand that it's a bit frustrating when I feel like you're dismissing it out of hand without giving it a chance (or trying it after it's been balanced). Have you tried a new game in the latest update today? Do you feel like that's a step in the right direction? Again, I apologize if I've been letting my frustration show towards you. We both want the same thing, which is for PZ to continue to grow and flourish. I hope we can work together towards that goal.

Moose65 Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Update, build 30.9:Added Jar Lid to do Canned FoodAdded Broccoli and Cabbage for canned food (Jam will come in some days)Added an Endurance Regenration sandbox optionIncreased a tad the endurance regen when immobileHopefully fixed "dancing" zombiesAdded experimental zombies behavior: when a zombie inside a group spot you, he may also attract other zombies to youEndurance regen when walking (really small, 1/3 of the immobile endurance regen)"Walk To" now take the exhaust moodle and fatigue in speed calculFixed Language spellingFixed bug in farming/campfire recipesFixed some spelling in recipesRemoved a non-used item (hunting rifle clip)Fixed Log Stacks recipe bugScavenging for food during winter will be impossible, or really hard in cold monthsPlants now loose health during cold temperatureEmpty jar/Jar lid now spawn in grocery storeReduced the spawn rate of foods in fridgeZombies won't group in forest (well, much less than previous) Really like where this is heading now. My only suggestion though is to reduce trapping/fishing success rate as well during the winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geras Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Just popping by to say I like changes that have been added recently. I'm happy with the game and the direction in which it is going. Viceroy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madigari Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 My only suggestion though is to reduce trapping/fishing success rate as well during the winter. Can I ask, why trapping? The occurrence of birds might be less during winter, but in Southern Illinois (about a 3 hour drive from Muldraugh), we still have plenty of mice and squirrels around during winter.

The occurrence of birds might be less during winter, but in Southern Illinois (about a 3 hour drive from Muldraugh), we still have plenty of mice and squirrels around during winter. Birds would defiantly not be around, or at least not as abundant. As far as rabbits their not as active during the winter (or at least the hours change). Hadn't thought much about mice and squirrels though. Perhaps reduce or eliminate the catch rate of birds, forcing you to prepare for winter more properly?

Moose65 Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 One more thing I thought about, is worms. They should be disabled in winter as well, so you can't dig spam for quick, easy food since they wouldn't be around at all during the cold months.

Blasted_Taco Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 At what point is normal to be drowsy?I wake up, my friend goes to the normal routine of checking around the house for zombies while i make some foud, and then after 3 hours i feel drowsy for some reason, maybe i didnt sleep well cause i sleep in a chair? Also the only problem i have with the resting mechanic is that either you can't eat/read while doing it, why is that?

Diomedes57 Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I accept the developers making the choices that decide the direction this game takes. Been here for years and have been patching through various iterations of the game, excited by the surprising changes. The Indie Stone team has provided me a great game experience, has not abandoned this project or charged me for a sequel or any patch. May be the best purchase I have ever made from a game developer. Thank you Indie Stone and please continue clarifying your vision for this game. I trust you. Geras, EreWeGo, Peemore and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reason you see them again next spring is because of the eggs that are resistant to freezing. zellfaze 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f3rret Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I'd say keep the fishing and trapping rates the same during winter. Even if there were less animals around, they would be hungrier because there's less food available to them, no? The black bear spawning in a trap made me laugh, thanks.

Most fish go to the bottom in an almost hibernation state. Worms pretty much die off or go 5+ feet underground. Winter should be brutal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winter should be brutal Ah, but if rabbits are active, they are looking for food, certainly not just out to take a leak. A baited trap would almost be more appealing to them wouldn't it?

A baited trap would almost be more appealing to them wouldn't it? It would, but remember, they are active for shorter hours, and your competing with their predators for an already scarce food source during winter. Edit: Simply wanted to clarify that I'm not asking for ALL of trapping and fishing to be removed, simply make it more difficult during the winter months, and remove obvious ones like birds and worms.

Rathlord Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I think rabbits should probably be left alone; rabbit season is actually fall/winter and they remain active throughout.
