I thought pre 1.5.7 was excellent. My current dude has been alive for 10+ hours, still has a survivor skin, but hes a 1.5.6 carebear basically. This mod is incredible, but 1.5.7 made it not worth the ammo to raid anything that isn't 1-2 enter-able buildings outside of towns. I have 5 canteens and about 10 cans of whatever, but only a magazine left in my akm and my automatic sidearm (forget the name, it seems to be a micro-uzi). So I live off of my supplies and getting people to trust me long enough for my buddy with his cz to put a bullet in their head. It works for us, we survive, but I would like to be able to loot a town for its beans instead of killing newbies.

I think it's a matter of where loot spawns. This is the alpha mod of a somewhat buggy game. I agree that it is frustrating to have to leave a large forest to find wood, but this is how it is working at the moment. Suck it up or play diablo 3 for a few weeks.

From what I've seen it is very similar to eating and drinking. Obviously, finding matches can be a bitch, but I've seen a few wood spawns in the half hour I played since the patch. It's just adding another survival element to the game which makes sense. I am hoping, though, that rocket adds more depth to the temperature system. Being inside, maybe warm clothing, even holding a flair should stop the reduction of temp. and maybe bring it up. It does still drop too quickly in my opinion.
