So wait, what's the benefit of Superalloy? I could kind of figure that Spiked looks badass as shit and it seems to be more splattery when I run over zombies, but if Superalloy is effectively the same but is harder to procure, why bother?

From what I remember, Superalloy is ridiculously light. I could be wrong though.

It can be used in personel-sized equipment. Namely, MBR vest inserts and CBM plating.

I still think it should be on par with Steel, at least. It's a bleeding-edge, ultra-rare alloy made with mad superscience, it should at least be on par durability-wise with the material that has a 1:2 exchange rate with dirt, as far as metals go.

Broken cars are an infinite source of steel.

And removing them would add game balance, but it would also drastically reduce realism.

Simple, make it so that most cars drop Warped steel, which have to be refined from a forge.

Actually the best is a metal recycler. If you have high enough fabrication, you can make a scrap suit, chuck it into the the scrap recycler, and convert two pieces of string into vast amounts of scrap.

I don't like the idea of having even more stuff gated behind forges, tbh. They're already a huge stepping stone that's partially RNG-dependent to begin with. I think that's enough.

And then, they will be weaponized. Like everything in this game, from kittens to babies, everything is a potential device of murder.
So if baseless speculation is all we have, we might as well treat it like fact.

Is it normal to inject your mutation-free self with 6 alpha serums and not cross the treshold? I'm not even getting any dreams(the first night after, at least).

It's probably a factor of RNG being a massive dick.

Except you don't even know what its intended purpose is. Alloy doesn't mean super duper better metal, its just two or more metal mixed to alter somethings properties. For all we know its just a light strong metal whose components are more commonly available than titanium.

This right here. The idea behind superalloy was that it was something almost as strong as steel but much, much lighter. Which doesn't really make a difference for vehicles now other than requiring a slightly bigger engine to accelerate with, but eventually wyou should need to do more for your frame and wheel systems before you suddenly decide to cover the entire vehicle in solid steel plating.

Find a royal jelly or a flu shot, you can find both in labs or you can get lucky by finding a flu shot on a pharmacy. Not sure if vitamins or antibiotics will help.
