The Forest - Co-op Survival Zombie Cannibal Oculus MF Rift Shityourpants Crafting Only $14.99 Simula - Games

I'm jealous of you guys being able to play :( , I want to play so badly but wont let me buy it :/

I hope they improve some of the graphics. Some things look fantastic, while some not so much. Maybe I'm not remembering right, but I remembered the trailers looking better.

I've just bought this and I'm really looking forward to playing it. I've read a couple of different experiences from this thread and I still have no idea what to expect.

Really great game so far! A bunch of crazy stuff happened to me before I ended up taking a break.

Has anyone found where to get what looks to be string?

[QUOTE=Ebrim;44963616]Has anyone found where to get what looks to be string?[/QUOTE] Isn't added to the game yet; any recipe that requires it in the book doesn't actually require it in the construction. [editline]31st May 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=werewolf0020;44963426]You will get monster/mutant sausage banged to death and you will LOVE it[/QUOTE] Crouch, throw molotovs at group patrolling at night, wait for them to keel over, dismember them, repeat until all patrolling units are dead and enjoy a mutant-free area for the rest of the game.

[QUOTE=skeligandrew;44960256][sp] Sorry guys but that perimeter thing is probably BS, it's most likely scripted pathing when the player is in range and he coincidentally had set up his camp in the middle of the pathing and the AI just didn't attack him due to numerous reasons, then disappeared because of the disappearing bug [/sp] People have a broad imagination. In my experience the AI has been pretty dumb and annoying, they group around somewhere close to my camp and don't fuck off for 20 minutes while scurrying back and forth to a tree[/QUOTE] It happened to me on my first play through. I set up my camp on a cape on the coastline and cannibals would show up during the day and night placing poles with limbs tied to them around it and eventually they came for me.

was building a log cabin, while I was cutting down trees I seen a patrol walking along a path about 10 trees ahead of me, so I was backing up while seeing if they were heading toward me. Music decided to play, I turn around and there were 3 more of them just watching me. Does anyone know if having your axe out or not would make them want to attack you? Also I guess I shouldn't build a log cabin beside a body, but I seen the body after I started building my cabin :>.

One of the biggest flaws with the AI is that, if attacked at range while the player is hidden, usually crouching at night, they will stand still and take damage and move normally without attempting to find the cause of the fact that someone(s) in their group is on fire.

How the bloody hell are you guys able to buy the game? I've tried to buy it for the past 3 hours and it just keeps telling me to add a dam card.

via steam?

[QUOTE=Max;44963818]via steam?[/QUOTE] Yes

cant help you much mate i have never had trouble with buying from steam have you tried using both the browser and the steam client

The model/texture artist for this game really needs to work on some of the content. The fact that so many models lack collision meshes, and that so many models have rigging issues, (the loin clothes on the 'father' mutant isn't rigged along with the legs, resulting in clipping issues when running animations are playing) aren't alpha bugs as much as they are just issues with not actually working on the models as much as they should. Seems strange like such simple issues exist on that end considering the team boasted about their vfx history and desire to make the game as visually pleasing as possible.

[QUOTE=Max;44963957]cant help you much mate i have never had trouble with buying from steam have you tried using both the browser and the steam client[/QUOTE] Not the browser, I've bought alot of things off of steam never had a problem but the 1 Game I want so badly just has to give me an issue :( [editline]31st May 2014[/editline] IT WORKED IT WAS THAT BLOODY FEATURE STEAM AUTOMATICALLY ENABLED!

So I just had an awesome game. I know a good area to build in that basically no AI pathes through really deep in the forest. Nowhere near the cockpit although that is a good spot. Here is mt little home away from home.

The campsite is by far the scariest place in the game at night.

So are you a survivor or the chief of a native tribe jesus christ

I'm always so paranoid and scared shitless whenever I'm at the tree line. If I'm cutting down a tree and I hear rain, a mutant screaming in the distance, or footsteps, I flip shit and run back to my small unfinished hunting shelter on the beach and starve to death. Even though in the past I've wrecked the shit out of a group of 10+ mutants invading my camp, I'm still scared.

What does "Public Alpha Release" mean if I may ask?

Your place is going to get found.

[QUOTE=zerosix;44964058]should've got the CoD Ghosts devs to do it[/QUOTE] Don't bring cod into this :( [editline]31st May 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=alexojm;44964077]The beach is the worst place to build as there is AI pathing all the way along it.

[QUOTE=alexojm;44964077]The beach is the worst place to build as there is AI pathing all the way along it. Your place is going to get found.[/QUOTE] But.. The trees.. THEY WERE IN THE TREEESS But mostly I just hate the idea that I'm surrounded by a completely open area with nothing to keep my back turned to like the lake, which I can easily escape to and hide in. I guess I'll find an area deep in the forest and camp out there on my next session.

[QUOTE=BigBadWilly;44964068]What does "Public Alpha Release" mean if I may ask?[/QUOTE] Means it's buggy as fuck and unfinished. People seem to think it just means they get it early and are still allowed to complain about things not working. They're not.

Alright so I got behind a monster waiving his arms around with fire without him seeing me and inched my way towards him. I was able to stand up and slowly walk around him and just over half way walking around he just turns raises his aims and disappears. I only took pictures but the gif looks really cool. [t]http://a.pomf.se/qhsqhl.gif[/t] [editline]1st June 2014[/editline] A slower version of the gif if you want to see him in more detail. [t]http://a.pomf.se/xybibe.gif[/t] Just look at that face.

[QUOTE=zerosix;44964058]should've got the CoD Ghosts devs to do it[/QUOTE] the bunnies move away if you approach them advanced bunny ai they do run into water though

[QUOTE=BigBadWilly;44964068]What does "Public Alpha Release" mean if I may ask?[/QUOTE] Alphas aren't traditionally released to the public. So it is an alpha build, that is released to the public. The dev build could be much farther along than what the public gets, but considerably less stable.

Not sure if others are getting this but for some reason I have like a million birds landing on anything thing I build. [IMG]http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b13/borisjake/birds.png[/IMG] Bird simulator 2K14
