I haven't seen any of your videos before but I think the blob avatar is very cute! I really like it and the editing is good as well

[@poppypopper1646]

nah

[@Ebstarrunner]

I like it lol

[@bubbashrimpbiskit]

First, I send combat skilled character to the looting site to eliminate bandits and thugs take only essential items like food and valuable for trades. Next turn, I send in skilled scavenger to gather remaining resource. Then send someone with bargaining skill to the military camp for trade later. Great success!

[@RobertFireflyOsewski]

Maybe someone already pointed it out but the fun fact about this game is that it's made by Polish team and for a few years now it was granted a "schoolbook" status in Polish schools, meaning it can be used to teach teenagers about the war. It's optional, as most of this stuff is taught by reading books anyway, but it's nice to know that maybe some teachers will choose it as a way to present to students the hard truth about war. I personaly believe that it's way more effective method.

[@ciekaweciekawostki21]

I’ll never forget giving a homeless man food and than he showed me where some valuables were. Came back another time to clean the rest up and he said “wow look at the meds I found!” I needed meds at the time killed him and he had nothing… I’m sorry bro

[@unisamati5478]

Fun facts from a years long player; 1.On critical start when the robbery is high *DONT* loot all of supplies from your base but only loot materials to build stuffs, why? because if you did not loot them the game wont count it as your items so the theif can't rob you if you got nothing to rob lol 2. Focus on upgrading your crafting station first, by doing that just go and loot materials (woods, scrapes) on first night because your characters can stay hungry for 2 days, you can choose to upgrade cooking station too for less resources requires for cooking. 3. Read the description of the location you want to go first since the same place can have different situation (hostile, friendly, threat of sniper etc,).

I remember playing this before the Final Cut and I was rather disappointed in it. Now that I tried it again, I can’t stop playing it. Very intricate resource and personnel management, severe risk for no guarantees of a high gain. Truly a masterpiece. I tried Frost Punk made by the same team… it might need some work.

[@Spaceghost12]

This was my experience with this war of mine and frostpunk I thought it was hard and confusing so I just gave up then I came back to frostpunk and now it's my favorite city builder with a sequel just over the horizon, I downloaded the final cut last night and it's so fun im on day 17 or 18 rn.

[@darkangelux_536]

When I saw Zlata fighting, it brought back bad memories. (Each character have different stats in combat, she's one of the weakest in combat) Other than that, thanks for the tips about the characters, I didn't know the specifications about each of their abilities.

[@Clifford-zx1zt]

thank you for the content. just picked it up for a lil over $1. totally helpful i think ill enjoy this one. Needed a break from Warframe whew!

Thank you :3

[@MsNikkieMichelle]

I love this game, especially It’s aesthetics, which are simple but detailed, as well as the gameplay. It’s really freakin’ gloomy and very disheartening but that’s what this game is supposed to make players feel. Honestly, sometimes games don’t have to be like the kardashians-over processed and over worked. There’s merit and appreciation for simplicity. I definitely recommend this game and the dlc.

[@djcool1699]

Support people playing this game.. I have yet to see any other game bring me the sorrow and sadness that war casts upon people who can’t or won’t fight..

[@idontcheckrepliesstaymad958]

Lol the only thing this game achieves for me is making me pissed off

[@YourBonesInMyDresser]

​@@idontcheckrepliesstaymad958it really is a dog shit, terrible game.

[@i_inf0din254]

I just got pavle killed because I clicked on stealth kill and the enemy walked out of range slightly and then pavle ran out got spotted and then got 1 shot by a shotgun. Ended 15 day run pretty quick.

[@coreywhitaker883]

If you have Katia a good late game win condition is tobacco. You can make tons of cigarettes and sell them to Franko for the things you actually want. This strategy works well for beginners cause you don’t have to learn craft loops for alcohol/meds or food even. Just collect and sell cigarettes sometimes it works so well you can even buy Frankos tobacco and sell back to him later and keep coming out ahead.

[@trentbailey0yiaytokens]

Hint for console, if you force close when your character dies, it does not auto save as soon as you die but once you click to go to the next screen, if you force close on the “blank” died, the game will reset to the morning of the day before you died. So you will have to redo any crafting you did during the day before your character died

[@h03b73]

I got to day 27 barely surviving, and then i had a mass suicide and lost 3 people in 2 days

[@SlavySquat]

[@Rightchickenwing]

I'm realising I am aiming for my survivors to thrive (got it on custom mode) and water is essential for making so many things

[@Awwxxa]

I can’t even get back downstairs 😆 Every time I try it just walks me forward

[@Rightchickenwing]

I'm getting into the habit of my characters sleeping in the day as am getting two guarding at night

[@Rightchickenwing]

Loving this game, all my comrades are depressed though so looking to try and cheer them up. Maybe I should stop stealing from NPCs 😂

[@doorsareforopening]

6:36 Just built and fully upgraded every buildable thing in the game, it's possible if you loot good and are on one of the longer length scenarios

[@incubus_the_man]

I just heard about this game at the Imperial War Museum in London.

[@zachall101]

You DON’T defend your base though 🤔 there is NO option to see the people who attack your base and even try to stop them , it all happens off screen, personally I think this is a big missed opportunity as I’d like to be able to try and stop people who attack, also you DON’T need to ALWAYS have someone guarding, all you need to do is upgrade the door and it says that even if a big group attacks while your asleep you WILL still hear them and beat the attack

[@NCHoops2]

Maybe devs feel it’ll be too broken ? 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@trouty42]

If you have all holes boarded up and the door reinforced it says you will repel MOST bandit attacks even without a guard but during the time when crime is high or even just later in the game the bandit attacks are very tough and it usually pays to have one person on guard per night. Sometimes it is smart to use two people on guard if you don't have firearms or ammo. Otherwise you're at risk of getting characters wounded and you have to use valuable medical supplies to heal instead of trading them for stuff you need.

[@readmarx420]

The only time i managed to beat this game, i was ruthless. Everyone that crossed my path got killed, whether they were innocent or not.

[@medellin1300]

Just got it for the Nintendo switch

[@EllieMenopy]

you liking the game so far?

[@Rightchickenwing]

5:43 I get myself so confused as to what resources to build. I've got about 8 water makers, advanced workshop and stove, 2 moonshine makers, one distiller and the other two herb garden things. Probably other stuff too. I don't think I have got the hang of it though, feels like a bit of a slog

[@Rightchickenwing]

7:43 Ohhh OK I will wait til they get very hungry. Ta mate 😊

about the Franko Album? What to do?

[@timberwolvesxx7250]

i loved this game, a grim work of art. i wish they would create a new one frost punk was rubbish. devs should make a another survival war game

[@mr.t114]

I was able yesterday as a new player to the game to defend myself with a knife against a dude with an assault rifle and my dude goes and becomes depressed? Not that i can´t understand it and appreciate the game since i do but come on, he wished it was him instead? On top of that a door i lock picked got locked again while i was inside so i was trapped! Found a tunnel to explore and all, one of the cooler places to explore.

[@leopeo2623]

Played this back in the days just now started it again and second time this game feels soo easy bruh within 2 hours without getting any of my player killed or depressed i managed to upgrade everything in the house fully i literally have 28 meal cooked sitting there just 25th day and 15 veggie and 18 meat and 8 cann food i don't even need to go out anymore i can just skip and reach the end of the war 😂

[@MrBirdistheword444]

Whats the song you use in the background of the start of the video

[@sO_RoNerY]

First thing to build is a water collector then a water filter. Then one extra bed. For now.

[@trouty42]

Nah, you can scavenge water and trade for water. Build metal shop, stove (and upgrade the stove asap), two beds and focus on getting the house boarded up. Then you can start on some luxuries like the water collectors (get at least two of those). Make the trap for small animals and the herbal garden, then upgrade to vegetable garden and you start catching and growing your own food.

[@junyijuschillin9667]

[@Remy2947]

Why is scavenging only available at night? Is this optional?

[@trouty42]

You can only craft the things you need during the daytime, night time is the only opportunity to scavenge. Remember this is all happening in the middle of a war, so there would be less war activity at night and more war activity during the day so it would be more dangerous to go out during the day to scavenge. As far as scavenging being optional it is, you can choose to keep all of your characters home. But since scavenging gets you valuable resources you want to scavenge every night you are able to.

[@lolguy9941]

I just bought this war of mine for steam and its not starting, any way to fix it I've tried reinstalling, restarting my pc and verifying the integrity of the game files

The horrendously clunky controls on console have caused the most deaths for me.

[@seanknox7321]

Is there such thing as “winning” in this game? Or do you simply try to beat yourself.

[@trouty42]

Yes, you win by surviving long enough for the war to end. Typically between 20 to 45 in game days depending on which scenario you are playing.

you can't. You're stuck with what you have. Wish we have that option though. I guess it made the game a bit unrealistic, so the developers didn't implement it.

That whole Mood System is what destroys the Game for me. I mean what sense does it make when your survivor gets depressed because hes trying to survive??? Thats utter Bullshit

[@AstarionWifey]

Cause you see no hope? Survival doesn’t mean happiness

[@nuckinfuts920]

Honestly the fact that they become "broken" and then do absolutely nothing is the dumbest mechanic in the entire game. Being ultra depressed doesn't stop you from functioning unless you have some severe mental issues. Gonna mod that out so I can enjoy the damn game. Everybody in this situation is sad and "broken," you still survive or humans probably wouldn't exist as we do right now.

[@traceurs619]

@@nuckinfuts920War does that to people. Quit whining or experience it IRL for yourself.

[@nuckinfuts920]

@traceurs619 as I said if humans always did that we wouldn't be where we are now and you have no idea what I or the others around me have gone through to know that. Piss off. You don't lose all survival instincts because you're sad. It would more accurate if one out of ten survivors became broken because that's what actually happens. Nobody asked you. Sorry you're triggered but nobody cares.

[@trouty42]

The whole idea of this game is to put average decent people in the position of having to do things they otherwise wouldn't do. If you kill somebody you're going to feel bad about it (unless you absolutely suck as a person). Stealing food and meds from someone and leaving them with nothing is almost exactly the same as killing them. The only people you can kill in this game and feel ok about it is soldiers or criminals. It's totally possible to win this game without harming regular people (though usually you do need to steal to a certain degree). Also, getting a character drunk usually helps someone improve from being depressed. If they're just sad they still act normally so they're fine, they just complain a lot.
