Also, this is slightly old, but apparently there is a bug with spiders' poison orbs in which they are gargantuan. The screenshots have been great.

Speaking of, post some more base pictures! I wanna see hovels, castles, large gently caress-off walls, whatever you got.

Probably better off tweeting the Conan guys directly regarding that. There hasn't been any news that Ive heard of.

From a gameplay perspective, 1x gather rates makes pvp and raiding an actually profitable venture, and conservation and smart use of materials becomes an actual thing you have to do if you aren't just brute forcing resource gathering with a billion hours a day.

That being said, 1x resource gathering is completely miserable to play.

Rhymenoserous posted:

Yeah. Wait till you get fully wiped the first time. On a 3x server it took me something on the order of 6+ hours just to rebuild all of my crafting stations/well/wheel of pain.

What are you hitting things with a stone pick? Gathering basic mats(iron, hide, wood, etc) is very easy once you have iron and steel picks. I can get a thousand stone in less than 2 minutes.

Leveling is far more of a barrier than gathering for us goons on official 178.

what stats are worth leveling? so far i've just been sinking everything into carry weight and stamina

It used to be that Grit, Encumberance and Vitality were the only ones. But I'd say there's some merit to a bit of Strength and Agility. I'd say 15 Strength, 10 Agility, 30 Vit, the rest in Grit and Encumberance. Of course, level Strength last as it is percentage based. Grit is less important than it seems, as it does not increase your stamina recovery rate, merely the maximum stamina. So it only helps you at the beginning of a fight, then it's completely wasted.

Yeah I'm not sure I ever pointed it out directly but when you guys destroyed our base on Dongful with Set, we never saw a summon message even though I did see it on your guy's screen watching the Twitch recording. The first I knew Set had been summoned was when he busted through our autism pyramid and ate me.

I've been doing single player for a few hours this morning and enjoy it, so time to move into the real servers.. Are you guys on the discord in the OP and does it matter what race/ religion I roll?

The 178 goons are using the BMW discord that is in the OP.

Race doesn't matter. Religion doesn't matter too much since you can just learn all of them from certain NPC's (assuming those NPC's haven't been blocked off by player structures). Just don't pick Crom and he literally does nothing and gives you no benefits.

Mitra is probably the most common picked now that Yog meat doesn't give healing anymore.

Reinforcements/tar/shaped wood/etc were the limiting factors. Not basic resources. I was dumping resources in by the bucketload but had to build multiples of every structure just to crank things out in a timely fashion. Tar was probably the most annoying because I needed a ton and this was pre bark boost.

And also yes we got hit so hard that stone is basically where I had to restart.

I wish I had seen it. I had booked it inside to destroy the bridge (which ended up not mattering because someone built a jumpable thing that they shouldn't have) so all I heard was *hiss hiss hiss* as I ran inside to armor up and fight.

Yeah, it was a half railing that crossed with another one that allowed us to leap across, but that melee we had in the courtyard was fun, I think at one point we were down to 2 guys defending trying to hold waiting for the others to run back from our raid base. The snake hitbox is huge because it crushed and killed a bunch of us just slithering by into the base.

Sure? I didn't take any pictures of the walls because I'm still trying to decide on tower constructions that look nice.

Here are some thrall hovels that serve no actual purpose:


And a blacksmith building:


A Yog temple:


One for Mitra (I posted the Set one earlier in the thread):


A keep/throneroom sort of thing I'm still messing with:


Aerial shot of a big old arena:


And from inside:


Anyone else get the weird bug with torches where they only show their flames if you turn them off and back on again? It resets every time the server does, as well, which is poo poo, unlike the bug where thralls don't have their weapons out, which you can fix permanently but just putting them down near an enemy and picking them back up again.

That was me, I called out in discord "When this door comes down I'm going out swinging."

I went with sword and board rather than 2 hander figuring it would keep me more mobile as I wouldn't have time to line up shots. We honestly could have put up a much better fight if Inkel hadn't been running around naked (And I had remembered to wolf down yog food/mitra food).

In retrospect I should have started tearing down the left side building just to get materials quick and thrown up a wall in the gap and just watched you guys bounce off of it, but hindsight is 20/20.

Most of us are gone from the server, I can kick the door open if ya'll wanna rob the place.

Do you need steel weapons to tear down poo poo shacks? I've built a place on the newbie delta while I level up before joining the clan and just unlocked the iron sword. I can rip up campfires, but all these one square squats people have put down still say that I can't damage them.

So this game is literally unplayable right now. Clockwork 10 minute server crashes on the only Asia official server. I can only imagine it's from whatever halfass thing they implemented to try to stop people from building on NPC spawns, which also didn't work at all since every NPC spawn on the server is built over.
