We need NPCs to be less lonely. I loved my dog I fed treats to, for the exact 5 minutes I had him live. He proceeded to charge headfirst at a brute while I was yelling to get back.
WE CAN HAVE PET DOGS?!?!?!?!?!?

Fuck that, i want a pet moose

Can we have leashes or something to keep them close to us?

Well, no, that's kind of the point. 

But if you feed one dog food (activate it and give to adjacent dog) it will follow you for a few minutes before it decides to dogicide against a squirrel or some shit.

Hmm...maybe we SHOULD try feeding the Zombears....

Sorry if I made any misunderstandings guys. No, you can't yell at dogs to get back that was just my inner me raging why my dog ran away. I'm not sure if they follow you indefinitely if they don't die to the next moving thing they see, might need confirmation on that.

Even with NPCs you are all alone in the world, every other human has already lost their mind and you are the last sane one.

Nah, NPCs are just horribly broken and are more likely to try to mug you or go suicide themselves on a moose than follow you for 3 steps.

Grendus, there is a bionic that stops shockers, but yeah they could use a better counter. One key, make SURE you aren't using a metal weapon or your bare hands. If it has metal in it, it will conduct the shock back to you. So even a fire axe will conduct. At worst, grab a two by four or a rock and beat the thing, then drop it.
Is it possible to stop the shock by wearing rubber gloves?  ???

Rubber or leather, IIRC.
Hazmat suits (not the cleansuit, IIRC) or power armor are grounded and will safely discharge the shock.

Cat food works on cats, too, FWIW.

   So I slacked a bit on this but whats with the music in the latest experimental? I like it but seeing as I do a lot of videos for YouTube music can be a bit of a problem. Basically whats the rights on it and what not? I haven't had my videos flagged yet so I assume so but better to ask now then wait and hope.

So it seems I accidentally put my canteen in my wheelbarrow and didn't notice... and then I got really thirsty... so right before going to sleep I go to take a swig from my canteen and... end up snorting a line of low-grade meth.

There's a dog whistle item.  I find them very rarely in houses I think.  Anyway if you have a dog following you you can activate the whistle to blow it.  Blow it once and the dog goes defensive, trying to stay by you.  Blow it again and it goes back to aggressive chase everything that moves mode.

Sadly unless you get a quest to rescue an NPCs dog (which gives you a free whistle...and the dog if you complete it, oddly) the things are very rare.

We've had an album produced explicitly for the game, and also a number of items produced for it from various people. We will be using that, and potentially other music that is fully and completely free.

I like the spider nests in the basement. Over 4,000 lbs of dead spider later and I have a green basement hideaway. Not a bad days work.
