The ship is not bad the problem is the AI officer is hot garbage. Vents way to often and early. Poor weapon utilization. My initial guess is it'd be great in player hands. AI doesn't do so hot with ships that have a wide variety of weapons.

If you ever find a lockpick, the far right building at the Pine Grove assisted Living location in the closest apartment to the picnic tables outside has a dead survivalist inside it.

Hyperhydration is real. You drank way too much at one time. As in gallons of fluid. You overloaded your kidneys and since you can't piss, guess what. You also can't vomit. Too much sweet stuff makes you lethargic. Too little sleep and you lose your mind. Lots of stuff to keep in mind. You can get drunk. You can get stones. Yes you can drive and no you don't drive well in either condition. You do get injured in car wrecks. Your car does as well. You don't need 50 magazines for that 45. However you can unload the extras and bullets weigh less. Shotgun ammo is not overly common. Iron arrows can be crafted so the bow is useful. The wood axe is way more effective at killing zombies in melee than that pipe you have to hit them 50 times with.

Looks like a fun game. Some weirdness to it with the hunger and hydration mechanics though. I'm a big guy and I can eat, but after 4 slices of bread, some pieces of fruit and a cookie and I'm going to be full lol. Sometimes in survival games I think they go a little over the top with some stuff too, like needing a can opener. I've opened cans in the past with a pointy rock and most tinned good have a ring pull now a days too. Can you use the keys for cars and trucks in any car or truck? Might be worth trying to remove the key and and use it in another vehicle?
@mattparker97263 ай бұрын
yeah, I think the food and thirst mechanics need a LOT of work, in fact you can tell the game is VERY rough and early in it's development cycle. I was playing a bit off camera, and found out that each bread slice gives 2% hunger reduction!! 2%!!! ;so silly. Also each key is tied to a specific vehicle, insofar as I know, but that would be fun to test, FOR SCIENCE!
@wpeale713413 ай бұрын
@@mattparker9726 Yes keys are vehicle specific and the specific vehicle may not even be in front of said location you found the key. Town Hall I found 12 sets of keys in a refrigerator. Car lot I found 2 sets of keys. There is like 30 cars at that location. Hunger is a pain the butt. Never had any issue drinking water from sinks though. Over 80 hours of play in the demo.
