4) It's too hard!  (Play a few games, you'll get the hang of it)
5) It's too easy!  (Jesus christ people make up your minds  )

Dwarf Fortress is said to have an initial difficulty curve that has overhang. By having a game that is beloved by members of our community, you have no idea what you've gotten yourself into. If we had a movie, it would be called There Will Be Suggestions, and it's sequel, Suggestions 2: Contradictions Boogaloo.

[Frumple]

I'd probably pay to watch just about any movie with "Contradictions Boogaloo" in the title.

That said, been playing a lil'bit via the windows V head posted a page or two back. Not having much luck, though, due to th'crashes coming in every few minutes Is the putty-accessible one more stable/recent?

E:Crashes is spelled with an s.

[Reelyanoob]

Whales, thanks for the great game. Though my character at 9 or 10 days now is having it too easy, I'm starting to get bored, it was more fun when he was at death's door continually XD

Spamming my wishlist/suggestions:-

Firstly - containers! I'd like to be able to find/craft "crates" which hold 24 cans of drink, maybe 12 tequila bottles etc. To keep it simple to code, when picking up or carrying a crate, it would count as only a single object, but when on the ground a new key would allow you to take items from the crate. I thought 24 would be a good number because it could use the letters a-x, or maybe make it a max. 52 limit and piggy-back it on the existing inventory system?

How about rags coming from clothes too, either deliberately or as a result of "damaged" clothes in battle or from failed repair attempts? Maybe they can even be stitched together to make "sack" objects?

As well as character creation options, it would be great to have world-creation options too, even if they were in an ini file. One thing i think would make the game a little harder is to be able to create a "No CBMs" (any maybe "No mutagen") world, my char has a bunch of CBMs and they seem to make the game too easy, I just don't need most of the equipment anymore, which is no fun.

Also and improved notes system would be nice (colorization and symbol selection). And please put in a "debug mode" toggle control. I accidentally hit 'z' and revealed the map. There is no undo feature for this A toggle control for debug mode would be easier than undo map reveal, this will also prevent accidentally spawned NPCs.

btw: the auto-save doesn't synchronize very well between character and map. Sometimes I clear out a shop, then it crashes, I load the auto-save and my character is back outside from before looting, but the doors are open and anything I picked up etc is gone. This is quite demoralizing. Can you maybe have an option or code to save the character whenever the map tile data is saved?

Nice to see i'm not the only one. For now I play with the earlier port.

I think layered clothes on body parts should have diminishing returns on carry volume, with maybe an exception for backpacks and bags. It's pretty silly that wearing 2 pairs of cargo pants lets me carry double the stuff.

That's already in there. Use scissors on clothes, and I believe with some sewing you can make a backpack out of rags, unless its some other material.

[beorn080]

Yeah, you can make backpacks, it just takes tailoring skill.

v. 1.3.5 ? That's the one I'm sticking with for now, 1.3.6 kept crashing on me, and my prev. char is going too good to try 1.3.7 yet. 1.3.5 also seems to have fixed the @ screen bug that plagued versions up to 1.3.4

Can you make lightning less common? I've had 2 safehouses burn down in one day from lightning strikes. This is ridiculous.

[Vucar Fikodastesh]

Whales,

I've got a couple of content suggestions.

A new negative character trait, chronic migraine headaches. Your character would randomly, and frequently suffer varying levels of pain. Sunlight would make them much worse, though sunglasses would help. Strong painkillers would be essential for this character.

I also noticed that although the P90, FAL, and SCAR are in the game, the F2000 is conspicuously absent. Which is too bad. It's one of my favorite guns in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. SoC.

[Mono124]

The issue with strong painkillers being essential is that you can OD quite easily.

[Goacbc]

Whales,

Goacbc Here again. Homemade Wine Kicks ASss...

On to something more serios, is there a way you could like add in clubs? They could hold lots of alcohol and be a place to draw zombie in then burn the building down!!!

Oh and can't wait to hear how your doing.

Sorry alot of us on this forums can be dicks. If you want to understand just watch the Team America Dicks Pussies and Assholes metaphor. Thanks

Oh and I was watch this movie and this guy took a live human and bound him up and then let the zombie come to the tied up guy. Little did the zombies know there was a fucking gasplosion waiting to happen.

In the end everyone died. And I hope to see more diseases. Like when I drink toilet water. It'd be awesome if I got fucken saliminala or some shit disease.

Thanks Whales.

P.S. If only we knew each other in real life. We'd be buds for life. Love Ya

[Bdthemag]

Wait, I never noticed any dicks on this forum. Has anyone else?

[FunctionZero]

Wait, I never noticed any dicks on this forum. Has anyone else?

Nope, me neither.

Lemme check ... Yeah, the last more negativish (is that even a word?) was the Facepunch discussion back earlier.

So yeah, clear as sunshine as far as I can tell.

[Goacbc]

Oh my bad then. Haha.

I just read abunch of complaints and thought complaining Dickish!!!

Wait, imagine what the hulk looks like when he gets an erection.

[Whales]

Crates are intended as a part of the forthcoming "furniture" addition; they'll contain objects and can be dragged to be used as a barrier.

Rags from torn clothing is a good idea (I should make the message when your clothing gets torn a little better, too).

No CBMs, no mutagen, and others are perfectly fine player-set conducts--I encourage you to hold yourself to them if you like.  Don't really feel a desire to let the player remove them from the map entirely; you can just ignore them if you want the challenge of not using them.

An improved notes system--can you expound upon that a little?  And yes, debug functions are a little messy right now, I'm planning on moving them all to a unified debug menu.

Map tile data is saved extremely frequently--but I'll test autosaving just as frequently, and see how that works.

Thanks for the thoughts!

I realize it's ridiculous and unrealistic, but isn't it fun to be forced to grab what you can and flee a burning building?

That F2000 is pretty cool.  Any idea what might differentiate it from the multiple 5.56 assault rifles already in the game?

The issue with strong painkillers being essential is that you can OD quite easily.

Use codeine if you're a noob, or a single oxy.  Multiple oxycodones and heroin are for those with a tolerence (i.e. addiction).


No one here is a dick!  You guys have been incredibly helpful, with suggestions, complaints (keep them coming, they're important!), bug reports, and just general enthusiasm.  Thanks for being such great players!

[Gunner-Chan]

If I have one complaint... I'd be I think 9mm weapons need a look. Me and a few other friends of mine agree they just seem inherently worse than nearly every other class of weapon. Even .22s.
