Thought some people might want to see this. Here's an interview with rocket by YT commentator GassyMexican:

On the back it should say "Friendly??" ^^

...if they introduce a cannibalism feature. Fuck beans, i just want a sure way of eating, without the chance that he doesn't have anything worthy on him :p Anyone else thinking that this should be added? Discussion?

yeah, wouldn't really mind any downsides. I would just want that for creepy athmosphere reasons. Cannibalistic players could have a humanity similar system, where they turn more savage looking too maybe

Regardless of most of the vid, but i just thought how fun it would be to play on a server without nametags, choose the zombie face, drop your backpack and gun and play a zombie ^^

I'm mostly a survivor, but if I call a session success, then it usually means that a bandit was nearby and didn't even know it. Also having better gear doesn't mean they are better, especially if they lose their moment of surprise and get killed by a player who has worse equipment or even worst case scenario, if the bandit HAD his moment of surprise and still died in the end. Something bandits would probably find a good idea too: Reading through bjarnidk's story i just thought about starting some kind of trophy collection of my killed bandits. Would be awesome if we could wear their ears or scalps, but since that isn't in the game i think a screenshot gallery would be okay too :)

Didn't read...yet, but the artwork is awesome

Even though i support melee weapons: The point of this mod is only what rocket wants to make out of it, so we can't be 100% sure what is a viable option and what isn't as long as he doesn't say anything about a topic

I play this mod for about a week now and 2 people of my skypelist finally got it too, so we decided to login and meet up. It was nighttime. Besides some minor hilarious bumps on the road, involving zombies, accidentally thrown flares and talks over the mic where everyone seems to be: "I'm right under the crane." - "me too, but i don't see you...oh wait, is there more than one cranes at your position?" - "No just one" - "Allright, then we speak of different cranes", we finally found each other. Knowing that the coast near our spawns would be dangerous, we didn't bother with any of the small towns and made our way into the woods, all the while discussing and arguing where north is, one of our guys always talking about the northstar near the big dipper or something, the other one being sure that we need to walk into the opposite direction and me just saying that we shouldn't log into servers with nametags over our heads, since the whole sneaking would be kinda useless then. I picked up a Sniper somewhere along the road on a body, my first sniper of all times and kinda pissed that the body didn't have any ammo for it, so i had to just carry it around without being able to use it, other than for scouting the area in front of us. We landed (after some detours back to the beach, cause we ran in the wrong direction) somewhere near Three Valleys, spotted that radiotower and i finally found some rounds for my sniper. Not seeing much and being kinda lost, we switched to a server where it was just shortly before nightfall, so we had at least some light left, even though it was foggy as shit. Next thing we know, we stumble upon a sign with ...of course...russian letters on it and one of the guys said "Hope that doesn't mean minefield" (XD) and then he started up google translator, figuring out it was the sign for the Quarry ahead, while i moved on a little bit to see the big cliff going down and asuming the sign meant something like "Big fucking drop, step carefully" They decided to check out the bottom of the quarry and since i had a sniper with some rounds, I was assigned overwatch and lay down halfway down the cliff, watching them and the fencegate of the quarry. Zombies didn't make any problems but then a shot rang and it turned out one of them got shot, shortly after the other reported too that he is down and thus i started to scan the surroundings. Turned out a banditskinned sniper was on the other side of the cliff, kinda on the same height as me and i took aim and shot him in the head. I was not sure if he had a buddy along with him, but after the kill message in the chat, i also spotted 2 disconnects at the same time, so either a coincidence or he and his body logged out. We lost 2 guys with starting equipment, but I gave them their revenge and was able to stock up on a winchester, some supplies and more ammo for my sniper and since it was allready late anyway, we decided to call it a night.

i know i am more of the guy that wouldn't shoot a survivor if not necessary, but it sure as hell felt good when a bandit sniper took out 2 of my teammates, not knowing that i was on overwatch and capped him right after. Too bad we had 2 casulties, but they were new in the game and survived allready way too long for their first game and after all i avenged them nicely :)

oh man, whiners about whiners are as bad as the whiners themselves. On another note: I found 2 stacks of wood in a barn, no issue there, but like before the patch i still need to yet find matches anywhere, but I'm sure that will work out too. Only questions i really have: How does the temperature exactly work? ARE there buildings and if so, which ones, cause barns don't seem to count, that raise your temperature again? Does it go down only in rain and night or simply always?

too bad that there is no way of analyzing text for stupid things, like whiners, noobs that ask the most obvious questions that they can find out in 1 minute and such, with a horde just waiting to jump them XD

allright thanks, so back to Saluting or sitting down then :)

as long as i don't know what that new feature is, i just will refrain from writing at all. Don't want to risk some instadeath suicide button to trigger, so from now on i have to assume that i need to take the shoot on sight-bandit way, which i never considered before.

Uhm, i just played the first time after the new patch, nighttime and my temperature didn't change AT ALL. So what exactly triggers temperature drop? Only rain? or was i just not long enough online?

yeah, but it's there and probably won't go away, so my posted idea would work around the immersion problem you have. Set the allowed areas to logical places and if you want to make a fire outside of those, you need to collect wood from some lootstacks

The only Endgame should be "You are dead" Everything else, please don't.

IF rocket is planning to make wood available in forests, then maybe it could be done like the water refill feature. If you are in an area that is ok (like forests, or generally just near trees) then give a prompt with a gearcheck if you got matches that lets you allow making a fire. It's the same with the waterbottle: Is the player near a water source? Does the player have an empty bottle? If both are true, then refill water function is available.
