[QUOTE=slayer20;45005787]Three questions 3) Do the effigies ward off unwanted visitors?[/QUOTE] Temporarily, afiak it scares them off for a few days then they'll get really aggressive towards you.

[QUOTE=SoUl_ReApEr2;45005851][url]http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=267459498[/url] great save function...[/QUOTE] That's actually one of the cannibals eyes, theyve preyed your eyelids open as you sleep and is staring right into your soul...

Do the cannibals still take a million hits to die and 1 shot you?

I've never had cannibals one-shot me, but I'm always donning lizard armor

[QUOTE=Coyoteze;45005646]Fuck, I've been awake for like 24+ hours, I really should sleep but this update is making me super intrigued.[/QUOTE] Sleep or all you will see is mutant cannibals when you try to.

Ok so i just watched the trailer for the first time and this game looks amazing. Is it as good as it looks?

no

[QUOTE=mark6789;45006801]Ok so i just watched the trailer for the first time and this game looks amazing. Is it as good as it looks?[/QUOTE] The trailer doesn't lie, but then again it doesn't show off all the unintended glitches you'll be facing at this stage in the game. Wait for a later release.

As soon as I boot the game up, the screen turns grey with the backround title music playing and numbers are on the bottom, doees anyone know what this is or if it's happening to them too?

[QUOTE=Talatandi;45007071]Try to alt tab out then back in.[/QUOTE] Been done :suicide:

My only problem with buying this at the moment is how frequent the mutants appear to be attacking you all. I'd love it if they made a slider for that, because I'd prefer the suspense of wondering when their attack will be after a long period of time, it would get annoying if it's too frequent. Plus I'd love the time to hunt and build.

I feel like the first day should be mutant free and during the first night that is when they come up to the surface. From that point onward depending how many mutants are on the surface dictates how and when more will come to the surface. Either that or it could be a case of each night more come up if you haven't killed any or been detected.

Looks like the developers are hard at work trying to get this game running bug free. Makes me happy

I think it'd be really cool if the muties would stalk you, always looming in the distance but you wouldn't be sure when they were going to attack or not. Then, if you stood still in a certain location for too long, they could throw a spear or two to keep you on the edge (and maybe even maim you) Also muties wearing suits made of bushes, so the next time you see a bush that looks suspiciously like a person [sp]it actually is a person disguised as a bush[/sp]

Holy shit, I was a fucking psycho this time. [B]I HUNTED THEM.[/B] I built a simple base the first night, they came for me. I was trying to be peaceful. But after endless attacks, they wouldn't leave. I finally snapped and proceeded to bash the shit out of one of them, ripped him apart, then took his leg, and beat another to death with his friend's leg. The other looked at me. And was angry/scared and yelled at me. Then it rushed me. He met the same fate as his friends. The next day I built an effigy. And did the same. A couple days later, I had 4 effigies built around my little log shelter. Then for a few nights, I saw almost no mutants. Then one night, 6 of them came running down the hill for me. It wasn't their normal behavior, they WANTED to kill me. I lit all my effigies. And started flailing my axe in the air, *it seemed like it actually scared them* then one rushes at me, I slice the shit out of him. And the rest of them are yelling, I quickly craft a molotov and throw it at one of the women, burning her alive, along with some bushes and shit around her. I slice up two more mutants, then look around, there's body parts everywhere, burning bodies, and 4 burning effigies. Then one mutant was on his knees, another was yelling, I rushed him, and instead of him trying to fight, he tried to run.. But I was faster. When I came back, the one on his knees was still there, doing nothing.. He just gave up. [B]But I didn't.[/B] Lets just say he's now with his friends. I swear, if you do it right. You can own the island, murder every last one of them. They will fear you.

So if you keep killing enough of them, eventually their numbers just keep dropping and dropping.

then you'll have to deal with 6-legs-vagina-man

I want to be able to craft a weapon like prince oberyn in game of thrones. [t]http://static.dyp.im/D7vvo6bGgq/69ef33e6e6b83442cc7055e55fbb3708.png[/t] Obviously nowhere near as fancy but I want to be able to take the spear you find on the beach and attach some kind of blade to it so I can swing it around like prince Oberyn rather than just thrusting it.

[QUOTE=DEMONSKUL;45010093]I find it hard to murder anyone when you die in 3 hits but they die in 15 and they are 5 on you at the best of times[/QUOTE] Yeah I'd think an axe would be a little more effective against naked dudes.

[QUOTE=Protocol7;45010151]Yeah I'd think an axe would be a little more effective against naked dudes.[/QUOTE] There Mutants so in a sense they would be tougher?

[QUOTE=Jmir 54;45008550]then you'll have to deal with 6-legs-vagina-man[/QUOTE] But what if you kill all those too? What do they send then, 8 legged penisaurous monsters?

[QUOTE=sarge997;45008283]The feel fear.[/QUOTE] What an intriguing tale! :v:

People saying this game has amazing AI must be playing a different game, the AI is fucking retarded Don't try and pretend it's anything else than the shit tier unity engine spawning enemy AI nearby rather than the constant patrols and intelligent pathfinding you guys seem to think they have. The AI is so retarded people actually get confused with it being intelligent AI cannibal spazzes out and runs off into the forest then a bunch more spawn out of nowhere = wow this AI is amazing one scout ran off and informed the rest of his tribe! code tells cannibals to put up effigys at certain intervals = WOW they are marking me out! cannibal stares right fucking at you for 10 minutes while you are a few foot away because of the shitty AI = Wow he chose not to attack me maybe he is friendly this AI is awesome You know, some times the right answer is the easiest answer, don't overcomplicate things edit: you disagree? how about you state why nerds muh alpha shills getting BTFO if you want a list of people who can't argue with my logic it's under the dumb ratings on this post

Must be some memory leak with the recent update. The plane sequence is much more stable and I've gained FPS on it, but while walking I went from 40 FPS to 8 in a second, and then it stayed that way for a while before going back up to a stable 40 again. Changing settings didn't have an effect when I was at 8 fps.

I can't wait for them to fix what they've said the whole time, that Cannibals avoid large bodies of water. I set up camp on a beach and, in the middle of the day, heard the 'spotted' sound but nobody was in sight. It pinged three more times, and four cannibals just ran out of the surf and started kicking the shit out of me. The fuck.
