Camping

[jojobnk93 15]

Another part to the survival aspect. After this updating for cooking and all the other fixes to survival I think they should add more camping. Place different tents and maybe seats or someone you can take back to your camp and set up a little camp or even eventually a whole community. Another thing would with the day night cycle make the day maybe an hour and night maybe half an hour. This way you have to plan on when to scavenge and stuff, then when it gets dark head back to your camp to cook, craft, whatever.

This stuff is all going to be implemented.

There is a lot of stuff like barricading, controlled areas, creating your own buildings and even planting and harvesting vegetables is coming ^^

 

The Server admins will be able to speed up the Day/Night Cycle up to 64x with the next patch.

I can't wait to see the day when players can go all out innawoods, felling trees to build crappy log cabins and living in them, safe from all except the occasional zombie or bandit. This would be a viable survival strategy, just build near a river for your water and eat berries and hunt, and all you'd have to worry about would be being found or getting a disease [necessitating a return to civilization to get medicine] and making sure you can find enough prey to hunt.

Oh man, having a log cabin in the woods in a zombie apocalypse would be so damn comfy. Or even better, a fucking TREEHOUSE. YES. THIS PLEASE.

Time compression confirmed by Rocket up to x64 server sided so Admins can now set the lengths of day how they want (will be able to) and yes, bring back tents I love hunting them down!
