I think it’s honestly designed to focus on the bow and headshots in early game, and katana in later game. With those I’ve found ZERO problem with enemies, even on hard survival with the heavy-duty mutants and without fixing the cold stamina bug. I’ve finished it like three or four plays now, and got bored with it. I still enjoy watching Farket play it and the creative stuff he comes up with.

[@Adepth7]

I agree. In my playthrough on the hardest difficulty I got the modern axe and then just built traps in the early game. Worked great to fend of enemies. And when the wall around my base was built I get far less enemies attacking

[@GoatOfWar]

I shot a cannibal in the head 9 times and it was still running around like a retard. I play on Hard mode but there's nothing hard about it, enemies just take forever to kill and 2 shot me without armour. What is normal mode looking like?

I shot a cannibal in the head 9 times and it was still running around. Enemies are damage sponges on hard mode. It's not hard, it just takes forever.

[@KiwisCovers2112]

Unless you've done this already or I haven't gotten to that part Turn down the enemy settings from high to normal, at the start of this season you had all enemy settings set to high (health, damage, armor, aggression, search parties) that armor stagger thing/ build system is frustrating enough to deal with. You set building resistance to low also, pretty sure it's making logs extra useless. Quieter footsteps in a forest full of shrubbery/ grass n sticks with full sized (and even bigger) humans running around is B.S, not realism, we should definitely hear louder footsteps. It's sucks seeing you having a hard time with this game. Also that build spot is surrounded by camps, I get attacked so much even on normal, great view tho lol

[@SkepTones]

It is wild to think of how The Forest had infinite building possibilities, there was always a way around a problem if you ran into one. That was some of the best parts of your old vids was watching you come up with some crazy method to build shit. SOTF seems like it is pretty limited, so many things done right yet many major things not as good as the old systems. I wish you loved this game cause I always lived vicariously through your vids since I fuckin suck at survival games 😂 well don’t beat yourself up too hard about this game, you either like it or you don’t. I hope you and the kid are doing good man!

[@jay2thedub]

4:16 They don't spawn with armor this early in normal difficulty.

[@BradlyFC]

The first thing I do when I start a new game is get walls up as soon as possible and add reinforced spikes around the border facing out (the typical strat lol). Then I add a "hallway" entrance with spikes facing inward. I know it's a cheese method, but this makes it so the cannibals see the open entrance and go through that instead of knocking down walls (for the most part). When they go through the "hallway" (I call it the killing corridor lol), they just shred themselves up because they're idiots and don't see the spikes as a hazard to avoid. I do all of this as early as possible and then I can basically just free build inside the walls. And it's super easy to expand the walls since you can do it sections at a time. I have a playthrough on my channel if you're interested in what I'm talking about (not trying to self promo I just don't know how to explain what I mean very well). If you do go look, pick a later episode since the base will be more progressed than the earlier episodes (I have a playlist for the playthrough). I know you're into bigger and more intricate builds, so I'm not sure you would be interested in my build since it's more "small to mid-sized" and pretty basic. But just in case you're looking for ideas or how others are playing the game, feel free to check it out. With the sleeping mechanics, I found that having closed off walls stops them from waking you up (in my testing anyways). I have a gate on the inside of the "killing corridor" and if I forget to close it before sleeping, I almost always get woken up. But I have yet to be woken up if it's closed (at least as far as I can remember). I know your frustrations with combat as well, the armor thing is ACTUALLY kind of BS, I agree there. I would recommend doing small "cheeses" here and there to help thin the herd a little when you get rushed (spikes, taking high ground and using ranged weapons, etc). I also almost entirely avoid melee combat unless it's just a couple of them because I'm terrible and I get overwhelmed pretty quick lol. I've gotten pretty good with the bows in the game, so those are my go-to. One of MY biggest gripes about this game is the fact that a silly little human can break down a wall in seconds with just a couple shoulder nudges. I play with structure damage OFF because that is SO unrealistic. I know it cheeses mutants but I encounter WAY more humans than mutants at my base and I'm not rebuilding every ten seconds because a "defensive" wall has the strength of a soggy wet noodle. And don't get me started on "death by animations" lmao. I was in the residential bunker and got rushed by spotted puffies and I was trying to open my inventory and the SAME backpack animation came up instead (where the character holds the backpack out instead) and got WRECKED lol. I was so mad. You're so much more experienced than I am in this game so don't take this as "I know more" or anything because my knowledge on the game is like a fraction of yours, but I figured I'd give my two cents just in case it helps!

[@Ackamemnon]

Me and my friends are new to the forest. We built this huge wall around our base! It was so cool.

[@doorofbebs1385]

for some of your zipline towers you should try using wall shelves at floor height to extend the edges where you fall off often since they have collision and can give you a little lip to stand on for a fraction of the work needed to add another adjacent platform

Ok. 1 your bow is your best friend. 2 don't bother with the axe. 3 Spear is ok. 4 The big thing with building is make sure things are level with each other. 5 Look up some building how toos. There are some dumb things around it, but once you get a feel for the oddities, it becomes quite intuitive.

[@Brutal-Bear-64]

I suggest staying out of caves and camps until you have established a base to fallback on. Once you enter the first cave, all creatures are able to surface and spawn. I found this avoids a lot of encounters in early days. Once you hit day 30 I think though, it doesn’t matter if you entered the caves, you get the full creature spawns. You might consider testing this maybe in another video and call my bluff. Also, you can control where the player drops at the end of a zip better by placing the zips arrowhead either high up the vertical log or lower on it. If you think of a circle as the vertical log being looked at from the side, then placing the zip at a northeast or northwest point of that circle will drop the player at that logs collision point. If you do it at the southeast and southwest points, the player will launch under the log. Too close to the prime poles; N,S, E & W, you don’t get good landingzones

[@zevjohnson]

This was on an early access playthrough but I have played to day 100 on hard survival without going into a cave and no mutants spawned. I ended up needing to go caving to "unlock" mutants so I can get creepy armor. Whenever you kill the sluggy monsters to get deeper in the caves or simply enter the caves then mutants can spawn but I am not sure which trigger actually enables mutant spawns. It may have changed significantly and may still change significantly so I may be entirely wrong

[@AIKIDOSILVERDALE]

Never build near a cave, point of interest, next to a road, a body of fresh water or close to canibal camps. All of these are enemy routes and you will get many visits. Building in SOTF is an endenvour, and requires a lot of planing. Its slow, and resourse intensive. Still the most important thing is the building site, be sure they can only come at you from one side.

Gotta love all the people here telling Farket how to play the game when if you have been watching his videos even for a little bit you know he is incredibly thorough in testing out game mechanics and getting things to work. You can even see it in this video how much he was testing to get the stone building to work and it is clearly janky and needs some fixing.

[@lonelywolfsurvival]

The difference between building with stone or with logs is that when you building with stones, you have in your hand quarter piece of log. So when you start build with stones especially on non flat area, you need to make a grid first by placing stone by stone (leave a space for full log between) vertikal first, after adjust the height, and at the end connect horizontal

[@Carlix_nt]

Because of how fiddly the building is, I found myself having to play with destruction off. Makes the enemy raids bearable(fun) but again takes so much out of the game by doing so(finding happy medium)

[@AlisteirCrowley]

I always found it interesting how you use grappling hooks to get by in the forest when you got the glider. You can literally get everywhere with the glider as long as you got a ledge you can jump off.

[@Cowpoke1911]

An odd suggestion but maybe the day should be peaceful and have the night be the only time with enemies making building in the day past day 10 tolerable. But to balance it you’d have to reduce/remove sleeping as it skips nights. Night could be about defending your base and each night getting more difficult. And the day would still have enemies in caves and camps but just not attacking the player directly.

„Overcoming the bugs of the building system“ I recommend you watch a building tutorials in fallout 76. you‘ll change your mind on how well this building system works compared to what we have to deal with :D Also yes, putting spikes on the walls does actually make them pretty sturdy from what i remember

[@KishiSora]

i think, if they make a forest 3 there should be optional build systems you can change via book or settings building for the 1st and 2nd game but then a "drawing" type blueprint like you draw a line or place a square, circle, triangle, ect. WHEREVER and the game will turn the drawing into a blueprint that will fit perfectly like if your building against a wall it will atcually fill in even the tiny gaps and make snug fits and i think they should add a "width" scaler so you can draw an outline then fill it in itll then turn it into a blueprint with whatever material you set it to. also adding a "blueprint copier" it could be a notepad maybe you find it maybe you just have it at the start but you can highlight a build and copy it then place the blueprint so you could, say, build a custm cabin, then copy it and place the blueprint onto a waterfall or mountain side then build the blueprint till you complete it this would also make moving your home to another location more viable and les of a waste of time i love the game but theres soooo many issues with not moving the right things from 1 game to another.

[@L3monSqueezy]

Maybe the issue you are having is that you are playing SoTF like you played The Forest. It is almost like when we get older and complain about new music lol. I think if you treat it like a completely separate game it might make it better for you. The other option is to just start playing The Forest again.

[@misterpinkandyellow74]

[@Harkonnen2025]

I think if you stop with the power attacks and try to hit em where they might not have armor itll be better. I also find sometimes the combat can be back and forth between enemy and player, meaning you could go strike for strike and they can dodge or block repeatedly. Its just something to get used to

[@Russian_lore]

You’re videos are the best! I agree though, it would be awesome if they added some of the building from the forest into sons! I don’t completely despise the new building system, but if we could use parts of the old building system to fill in where the new one is lacking this game would be chefs kiss!!

I'm convinced this game is not designed around hard mode at this point. Even on normal, I would just get my ass kicked if I attempted to fight any more than two cannibals. And they are relentless when building after like the first day. I uninstalled it because I just felt way too overwhelmed. I enjoy a game being realistic but there is also a point where the game needs to be fun. I personally think the build system could work well and I even like the animations but almost none of it is worth it when cannibals seem to be able to either vault over your defense or straight up destroy them in no time at all.

[@Sembel-xh9vq]

I think most people don't understand what "hardcore" mode is for. That mode isn't designed to be realistic, it is literally the most difficult option available in the entire game, so it shouldn't be easy. Most players should do Normal or Hard mode, or just make a custom game in the first place.

[@theprinceofthebadlands5204]

@Sembel-xh9vq I could play the OG forest on hard survival no problem though. The only thing bullshit on there was the fact enemies apparently became flame resistant which was like "Why? They already take an immense amount of hits to kill and you don't, did they seriously need to nerf status damage?" This game though... yeah no, I'm not doing hard survival here. There is WAY too much bullshit here.

[@Cowpoke1911]

There’s a right and wrong way of doing hard mode, making them hit sponges with higher damage is lazy and elongates fights.A better way is a realistic difficulty where they die quickly but so do you or AI tweaks, extra enemy types, faster enemies. Just anything but slowing it down, slow is almost never fun. I mean the forest is a slow game a cabin in the first game took 93 logs it’s too slow in many ways.

I've recently cleared the game on hard, the random attacks are probably the only thing that makes the game last as long as it does.

[@SomeDude-oq6oq]

I wish they put both building systems in the game and you could change which one you wanted to use in the in game settings. That way we could switch back and forth if we wanted to. Would that be tedious to add? Possibly not as the first game has all the build blueprint code in it. Or we could have blueprints and no blueprints versions of the same buildable structures so we don’t have to do any settings changes. Sure, the book might be much longer, but they could just put new rows of tabs into the book to compensate for that. Or just have a different book we could set a keybind to so the old book could be implemented into the new game. That, I think, would permanently solve the building issue in this game. For as much as I love this system, I agree it gets very tedious at times, especially when building on sheer cliffs and in water.

The inventory is a nightmare to use. I wish they had not missed on so many things. Just to mention one thing, where the heck are your arrows in the inventory?

[@SuthosGaming]

Hey #Farket do you have any clue when son's of the forest will release for PS5, we are all sweating on this game so badly, it will be awesome to hear from you please

[@DarkShadow-vp5dt]

try tree houses for zipline towers

[@mr.t114]

That´s right Farket, you tell them if the games are bad in any kind of way, we buyers of the software are not beta testers of their unfinished products. This game has crashed something awful on me and it´s a software issue, not a problem with my PC, this one was both good and bad as i can appreciate what they tried to accomplish with it but meh, it fails in too many ways this one, too bad, so sad.

[@AnnaMontana-gn4hb]

I laugh, i mean they seem to have tried so hard but maybe they tried so hard with the wrong things. That item requisition list in the bottom left corner, I´m supposed to guess or remember what it´s for? Also, add a quick view for how many arrows i have left. To go "boink" "boink" boink" with an empty arrow in battle kind of pees me off. Autoswitch is also bad, i throw a spear, it autoswitches to an empty bow. I would rather want to have nothing in my hands and as soon as i pick up the spear again that´s in my hands.

Electric fence is just the best, surrounded by hokey pokeys. I stopped playing because of the multiplayer lag and freezes.

Yeah I also don’t want to be woken up when someone is destroying my walls just because my bedroom door is closed. Way to unrealistic. It would be way better to only be woken up when they start on the bedroom after they have destroyed the entire base…

[@kckreations]

I use a heap of traps farket and have it so they are funnelled. Also mate your on the hardest setting yeah? Why not go down a lvl you'd get more enjoyment .

I love hearing your buttery smooth Australian voice, but I miss when you seemed excited to play the games. You should give some other games a try or play with mods to make your experience better man. Personally I really like SOTF, but I don't really try to beat the system. I really enjoyed Subnautica. If anyone is feeling defeated with the game, I'd recommend getting a really small base to start with defensive walls all around and trying to find a stronger bow like the crossbow or compound bow and the katana. Once you beat the game, the upgraded bone armor is really strong.

He game is more fun for me as a builder. I turn damage off and its a blast. I know this isn't your style at all, but the defenses are designed bad- they shouldn't be able to jump at a wall of logs and Insta destroy them lol, so now with damage off they CANT.
