The Long Dark Twitch Highlights #4: Deaths and Close Calls

[@BillyMcBillface]

Who would have thought the #1 killer in TLD is exactly 10 hours of sleep

[@SomeOne-vf1rs]

That’s why I always sleep in few hour increments unless I’m in a building or a safe cave. I learned after dying twice from sleeping outside

[@renaudalarie4283]

@@SomeOne-vf1rs Yup exactly! After you died sleeping outside for too long, you never sleep 10 hours straight again

@@SomeOne-vf1rs Being in a truck with really heavy clothes and a bedroll works too, but even then I really do that sparingly. Never ever sleeping more than 1-2 hours outside if I have to.

[@redpandatrident]

It's cause all these people are playing Interloper and the maximum amount of time you can sleep on that difficulty without taking dehydration damage is 10 hours. Plus the amount of condition you recover is exponential so longer increments are better at regaining health.

[@4ll3sb4n4n3]

yup, just lost my ~250 day interloper run at FA :( wanted to recover inside my snow-shelter with 50% condition down-bedroll... oh well. After a break I'll try again for the 500

[@PizzaSquirtle]

I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who has fallen victim to the cold nights and dying in your sleep. In my voyager run (first run ever) I was trying to speed up the process of getting to day 500 and trying to find a spot where I wouldn't have to worry about cabin fever. Found a pretty good outdoor location in Ash Canyon--a shack with one of those "interior" areas you could crouch in and be semi-protected from the cold.. Survived around 50 days out there until suddenly on day 238, a particularly cold blizzard came through and I faded into the long dark while trying to get sleep. I was so distraught I took a 3 month break and now I'm finally back lol. Your videos inspire me man, 10/10 content!

I just started this game and it gives me so much anxiety, they did such a good job at making nowhere feel cozy, like you can't just settle down somewhere and just be safe. Maybe trappers cabin, but not even that. Got sneak attacked by the bear, because I killed it one time, no problem. I didn't know they respawn. I'm on day 68 and I just finished my trek to the gold mine and it was so filled with stress and tension. But I got the back pack

[@AngerMaker413]

The best base location in mystery lake is the camp office. Trappers cabin isn’t very good because of how isolated it is. Next run, try the camp office out near the vacation cabins on the lake. It’s a great central location and has everything you need to survive a while.

@@Verdun16 you still need a constant supply of food, and now with the new update, vitamin C. Abandoned lookout isn't as convenient as camp office. And quonset is one of the most dangerous bases, if you get the bear, and moose spawn there, as well as wolves.

[@odin9628]

People burning to death in the hydro dam hits deep for me

[@AndRocProductions]

I just started playing this about a week or so ago, and I had this really good run going, around 60 days survived, I had full rabbit/wolf/deerskin clothes, a mooseskin satchel, and 2 bear skins curing back at my base. I was doing super well and I was super warm, I hadn't experienced coldeness in several days so I was getting real comfortable with sleeping outdoors. I had been playing this particular run for 24 straight hours (bad ADHD-induced obsession) and I was exploring a new region I hadn't been to before, with no shelter in sight. My character was completely tired out and over encumbered by a ton and was moving super slow, and so I didn't have the patience to look for a shelter, so I huddled up next to a cliff hoping it'd protect me from the wind and I intended to just sleep for a few hours and move on, but because I was so tired irl, I completely blanked out and slept for a whole 12 hours, and a blizzard hit in that time, killing me instantly. I honestly laughed so much, what a silly way to go, especially having bunkered up at the Quonset Garage for the last month or so, surrounded by both a bear, a moose, and who knows how many wolves the whole time.

[@iamlegend5900]

Almost had a bad time myself Picture this: A thick blizzard, essentially Jack Frost giving you the finger, misty as hell Wolves howling everywhere with nothing but a car giving me shelter, could not see anything out there but I definitely heard things I went back to my save point in the house but MAN

[@fufumccuddlypoops5502]

This is why I never sleep for more than 6 hours outdoors

[@trevorslinkard31]

A lot of these are from impulsive decisions, mainly sleeping with a hot fire in the open for too long. The weather can change within an hour, so it’s unsafe to sleep for more than an hour unless the fire is sheltered in a cave or stove. I’ve been there where I slept next to a moose carcass while waiting for it to cook, and my fire blew out while I was resting for an hour, woke up to a complete whiteout blizzard. I made it but it was still a close call.

First time I died to the power cables during an aurora, my stream chat lost it and cracked up so hard. I almost started crying

[@Nivrithi1]

One thing I've learned in all my hours of The Long Dark gameplay: complacency will get you killed. For these streamers, it was 10 hours of sleep in an environment where their fire could go out (if they had one). For me, it was a deer harvest on Interloper where a blizzard settled in during the process of quartering. Rapid hypothermia, total disorientation (Pleasant Valley can do that sometimes), ample amounts of aimless wandering thinking I was on the right path to shelter... only to wander into the path of a wolf while condition was far too low. As Jacob Geller once put it: "The cold magnifies our flaws, reveals our every imperfection. It doesn't forgive mistakes."

[@ButterHaus420]

Some of you really need to learn how to click properly. When a wolf gets me, I hold my mouse steady with my left hand, hunch over my mouse, and vibrate my right arm rapidly, while using the tip of my index finger nail instead of actually trying to do individual clicks. Trust me, with this method I click over 10 times per second and it makes wolf struggles a breeze.

[@davidsasse8050]

Can’t believe people will lose 500+ day runs and just be like “oopsie!” like it wasn’t thousands of hours of their life gone. When I first got the game I died in a 15 day pilgrim run and the sheer anger from that gave me a crippling brain hemorrhage from which I’ve never truly recovered

[@hag8752]

I’m normally that way in games, but like the monks creating murals of sand, only to wipe them away every day. It teaches you to enjoy the moment, look forward to the new beginning and possibilities, and a moment to look back on your failures and learn. A loving fun memory of your survival in the long dark.

What a surprise! Yet another compilation, it's so much fun to watch. Thanks!

[@averagesteel9666]

Some decent lessons to take away from here: -Never sleep in the wide open outdoors. Your fire WILL be snuffed out by the wind, and you’ll wake up half frozen. -Never leave a fire without torch training. For warmth and for wolves. -Don’t EVER screw with bears unless you have a plan, and a backup plan. -If you’re freezing at a fire, try and cook something that’ll give you a “warmth” bonus, like tea, coffee, or some canned food. -And never, EVER, walk blindly into the Dam, or the Cannery during an aurora. Watch for wires, always.

[@Jinnuksuk]

Man, some of these are heartbreaking. My first voyageur 150+ days, I died of bloodloss not realizing I was bleeding when I went to sleep to regain health after a wolf attack. I have a 188 days Interloper but I've taken a long break so for now I'm coming back with clean runs to get back in the groove before I continue that one again... Funny thing is, I had a nice start to a different playthrough which I did not want to lose so I started another one to practice but the practice round ended up being my main.

[@richardcarnell2388]

How can a wolf kill a 100% life survivor on a 100+ days run ? I assume they have a little defense with their clothes. I just survived a single day in interloper, but survived 2 wolf attacks, are the wolves becoming stronger as the time goes ?

[@kage9719]

I know it's been a year, but I will answer anyway lol. Wolves have a chance to kill you NO MATTER WHAT on interloper difficulty. Doesn't matter how much health you have, what you're wearing, etc I'm not sure if this applies to Stalker and below ^^" but on Interloper, ANY wolf can be a death sentence

I play voyageur because I like needing to be concerned about wildlife but also not feeling anxious all the time. On day 35 of a run, got a wolf coat, deer trousers, rabbit gloves and hat and the moose hide satchel. Got the bow around day 15-20 and ive got the rifle and revolver. Got a distress pistol from the ravine and just came back from forlorn muskeg with a batch of arrowheads. I was surprised how small fm really was. at some point I might head for pv to look for a mag lens (not a single one spawned in ML!) but putting it off cos of those constant blizzards and my tendency to get lost there.

I'm perfectly capable of clicking delete on a save myself. I've only had the game for a couple days. The first 2 attempts I made were forced deletes. Attempt 3 and 4 I clicked delete myself. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I won't delete on a glitch. And even if there was no fence there I would reload to test that wolf climbing the rock to see if it's standard. If standard then delete, if bizzare one off, then nope.

@@nicolaspages4459 i couldn't find where i read it originally but i found this from a reddit forum "If you want to do the Rapid Clicking, thee is an optimal timing (there's a thread about it on the online forums somewhere), but spamming the LMB generally is not the best idea. The game will miss inputs if you click too fast, or if your settings are off, and your fps is too high or too low. Steady and even is best. I *can* manually click with my arthritic hands, and have tested in with an online tool. I can maintain about 4.5 clicks/second, and that will generally win the struggle for me, but I do get beaten up a bit, the struggle does not go quickly (except with the Heavy Hammer... that thing is OP to get a wolf off of you, without killing or hurting it). Whatever speed you go at, even and rhythmic is best."

[@Tomato_Dragonzord]

@@BigAnimeMilki3s I don't really believe this rhythmical clicking thing, I'm almost sure it's outdated at this point (I believe I read about it on TLD Wiki). As we even see in this video, people click quite rhythmically and it doesn't get them far. They click way too slow. I do it at the rate of ~12 clicks per second, which is not always perfectly rhytmical, and ending a struggle on Loper usually takes about 2 seconds if I use a hammer and have to fill the struggle bar completely.

[@Mobus_]

Are some wolves just tougher than others? It seems like no matter how fast they click, they cannot escape the attack.

[@Zaknafein]

Yes and no - its randomly determined how far you need to fight each struggle. Sometimes you just click a couple times and its over - other times it needs to fill the bar. The issue is that some players dont click fast enough and that kills them. Its possible to fail a struggle and survive if you have enough health and armor - eventually it will end and you pass out, but the wolf walks away. Personally I use the Hold function rather than clicking. You take more damage but its more reliable.

I am finally playing and enjoying this game after HL added "Cheat Death". Games are buggy and glitchy enough - and they take a ton of time to learn.

There was one region when I started playing, so, saying that perma-death was "creating cheap gameplay value" is an UNDERSTATEMENT. Lots of people enjoy gambling, so I understand why the "importance" of perma-death for some folks - I personally don't like gambling and I won't just waste time assuming a game is well made enough to DESERVE my time.

[@Sev3617]

I don’t play interloper so I’m not sure if it’s any different but in a few of these guys cases they had a prybar, if they used that they could’ve survived some of these attacks, I play on voyager and pretty much every weapon in a wolf struggle works the same way, I always fall to half health before they back off, but if I pull out the prybar during the struggle they instantly run off almost everytime without fail and I only lose like 10-20 health, I’m not sure if it’s different on stalker or interloper but this is just something I’ve noticed.

[@Zaknafein]

Sev3517, it might be different on lower levels as I haven't seen tests done there, but that's because on lower difficulties you rarely die from a single wolf attack because the wolves' power level has been reduced. On interloper, a single attack can kill you. That being said, though, there has been some tests and in all of them the prybar is consistently the WORST weapon in a struggle on interloper. It ends in most deaths. Hatchet is best. So prybar wouldn't have made a difference in these cases, I'm afraid :) Thanks for the insight, thought
