spofny 3 Posted May 22, 2012 1. Firewood, and perhaps temperature as well, needs to goNot only are you losing heat even though you are jogging everywhere, you also need to go from the safety of a forest, where trees are abundant, to the nearest house to pick up firewood.. There is so much wrong with this system that until Chernarus is covered in snow I think we can scrap it altogether.2. Food cycle needs to be longerI've already posted another thread about it but this is a suggestion so:There is simply no viable explanation for the need to have to eat a can of beans and swallow it down with a can of Pepsi every 30 minutes. It's bizarre. Imagine how these characters would look within a week on that diet. Can you say sumo survivors? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The concept is good but it needs heavy tweaking, and that will come. Meanwhile, chill out, adapt, survive..or just stop playing. Whatever, it's an alpha.2.

It's bizarre. Imagine how these characters would look within a week on that diet. Can you say sumo survivors?2 hours playthrough:- Run all the frikkin time, cross country!! This is insanely tiring.- Crouch run everywhere in urban areas (that shit is TIRING!! I mean, try it, you won't last long.)- Ultra adrenalin rush with zombies all around and bandits possibly hiding at every corner. Adrenalin I think I'd grab myself a good snack and keep hydrated in these situations. I mean, I down a minimum of 3l of water when I don't do shit in term of physical activities. When I'm trekking, I down way more than that and I eat some fast acting dried fruits every hour or so.Sure, "can of beans" doesn't ring too good, nor does a cow steak, but it's the idea that counts. Plus, an hour of jogging burns about 500 to 600 calories I believe, which is what a can of beans represent, more or less.Plus you're pushing it. You only need to eat/drink when it's full red/flashing, not as soon as it's not green. And it takes more than 30mins for that to start flashing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TeaLeaf 5 Posted May 22, 2012 People misuse the world entitled a lot. Here is an instance where it would be correct to do so, take note. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frogbones 5 Posted May 22, 2012 When I was a bike courier in Houston in the summer, I'd drink 1-1 1/2 gallon of water and not piss once on my 8hr day.I was hungry on the constant....it makes since. It think the hunger is fine.....it's alpha. I'm giving the mod plenty of patience and space to evolve before I start suggesting these minor variables Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StrayWolf 1 Posted May 22, 2012 Most peeps playing this game are NOT - in RL - physically active human beings and therefore don't know jack sh-t about the outdoors.Sucks to be them if a real zed apocalypse were to happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jason.jblackman@gmail.com 3 Posted May 22, 2012 I think the firewood system could be implemented better, such as firewood spawning around dense forest areas, or adding a system where players can take wood from trees. I don't think rocket really feels threatened by the fact that you won't play until 1.5.9 is out though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dynamo the wonder 3 Posted May 22, 2012 Yeah. I'm kinda iffy about getting on at the moment due to all the bugs and what not in this patch. but I'm also afraid that when I log back in I'll be dieing of starvation :| Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
c.chris.perry@gmail.com 17 Posted May 22, 2012 Have fun not playing the game. It's an alpha, these things are all tests of features, not permanent things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mafit 1 Posted May 22, 2012 I havent read all the comments, but i am totally with you.Temp needs to go, your point is perfect.I have got a cold, even though i ran a lot, and i am far from a hospital, how am i supposed to get antibiotica ?? with 6k blood and shaking hands!?I think the idea itself is not soo bad, but the concept is horrible, and to put it in a nutshell, delete it!mafit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Disgraced 1123 Posted May 22, 2012 While I agree with the points, to some extent, they've been made, ad nauseum.The delivery... Well, amusing. Enjoy playing the other games you like during the time you'd have been here, and we'll see you when you return!L Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mafit 1 Posted May 22, 2012 Thats it ?Your opinion is, that even if some players or maybe many of them ( i am talking about the ones not in forum), dont think that this update is good, that we should get along with it???Dude, Thik about it, how are you supposed to heal a cold when far from a hospital?, why am i getting colder while running ?? why am i getting a cold so fast?if not deleting it, then at least work with it and make it better!EDIT:Btw: your fire place update needs some work too, i mean nice idea with wood and stuff, but u cant destroy a fireplace! once build it stays there forever. i more liked the old concept, where i could take my fire with me. now i need to find wood every single time i want to make fire Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm giving the mod plenty of patience and space to evolve before I start suggesting these minor variables[/quote']As a bike courier who was always hungry, did you hemorrhage blood out of your ass unless you ate a twinky every 30 minutes? I have no problems with penalties for being very active for extended periods, but your life literally and irrevocably draining away should not be one of them. Slower movement would be a good start. Increase hunger to 3-5 hours from green to flashing red, then induce penalties at yellow, orange, and red, before the current behavior at flashing red.And for fucks sake, stop reducing me to flashing red after I eat, realize I need to patch, log out, and then log back in with the patch. Or while I'm offline in general.Edit: As for temperature, it's a non issue for me. I never stop moving, and running is one of the things that raises body heat.
