I find the ability to craft bandages a little silly considering the fact that since I have been playing 1.8 I have found the materials to craft bandages 2 times, while finding actual bandages so often that it is impossible to count (let's just say that I could have filled my 24 slot backpack 10 times over)... Maybe reduce the number of actual bandages or increase the components, or (probably a little of both), but as it stands now, I just ignore that recipe. Everything else is awesome, I love the new icons (yea I really do), am ecstatic about the new weapon switching, and am content with the threat level of zombies and infection rates. Thankfully I have found enough wipes and antibiotics to solve the few cases I have contracted, and have either been lucky enough or just good enough to avoid getting bleeding wounds from zombies so as to reduce my chances of infection.
