Haven and Hearth A.K.A. [That] thread again.
« on: June 01, 2014, 05:12:58 pm »

It's been a while so I think we should go at it again. No explanation needed, hearth secret is: "ding donger" no quotes.

It's still up, they're apparently working on a new version that has an engine update and such. But yeah, a ways off yet I think.

Let me know when that happens, the version they've had up for like 4 years has gotten old :P

I'll give the game a go again, Urist. Are we starting out from scratch?

How old is the world? Not in the mood to be raided by more crazed russian raiders, with the irony of them wielding the Axe of the Twelfth Bay. I'd be in if we got a good, sufficient number and had a plan on who would be the leader, to prevent internal squabbles.

The world is very old, good luck finding a spot and trying to play safe. To be honest it will take them more time to get to you if you play as a hermit in such worlds or start making some friends on the forums (and kiss some behinds). The odds to jump into crazed raiders (russians or non) is the same as always :P The big factions (aka basement dweller power players) never quit the game.
Good luck :D

On the last world I managed to find a decent spot in the last few months of the server and start a B12 settlement. High quality soil and clay node, as well as a swamp that provided high Q curios as well as an iron deposit right next to our village.  Unfortunately the world ended just as we finished the village's brick wall. We might have a chance if we are lucky.

I remember playing Haven and Hearth back in the day, haven't the developers (some?) go onto make a new game called Salem with the same principles?

They did, though not with the exact same principles. I don't know much about Salem but I know that they added some kind of bile-themed system that's influenced by what you eat and what you do. That's all I know about it really.

Also if you guys want to play Haven and Hearth I'd be willing to join in. Would you guys mind someone joining in that hasn't played in so long that they would probably have to re-learn most everything from scratch?

Salem is Haven and Hearth.  Don't let anyone tell you differently.  It's slightly reflavored, there's some differences, but in all practical terms, it's going to play virtually identically to Haven and Hearth.

I'd be up for joining. I'm not much of a power gamer though, more casual.

Alright, if you say so. You know better than I do on this subject.
