PittTheElder posted:Yeah I agree with this but it's a bit of a shame that so much of the outside of the map is still random black forests and meadows. It'd be nice if the plains and mistlands dominated the edges a bit more. Notwithstanding the far north and south for obvious reasons, Mistlands is all over the place near the edges of the map (and Meadows can't spawn anywhere near there). You're right about Black Forest and Plains though. Relative to center of map, and setting aside the biomes that only care about absolute map position or altitude, the allowed spawn areas are something along these lines: 0-5%: Meadows 5-20%: Meadows, Black Forest 20-30%: Meadows, Black Forest, Swamp 30-50%: Meadows, Black Forest, Swamp, Plains 50-60%: Black Forest, Swamp, Plains 60-80%: Black Forest, Plains, Mistlands (in worlds created prior to the Mistlands update, you can also find Swamp in this range) 80-100%: Black Forest, Mistlands So if you wanted maximum

I hope in the future there will be either a patch or a mod that adds more points of interest to generate on the map, finding old structures is neat but there could be more.

Imagine if you could download someone's already played through server, complete with bases. I know you can do that already but they could add some features that remove anything player built within a set distance of the spawn and resets things like ore veins and cleared mines/dungeons.

You're right about Black Forest and Plains though. Ahh well it's interesting to see it broken out like that. But ya it'd be way better imo to restrict Black Forest to the inner 50%, either make the sides all Mistlands, or a Plains/Mistlands split.

They could hold a contest for people to submit servers to find the good ones then hand modify them to get that ruined look. Hell that could just be a community project right now minus the draugr thing. Unless there's a way to dev command spawners.

Pretty sure that biome placement is something that can genuinely be blamed on the incomplete nature of the game. They were talking a couple more biomes in addition to the polar biomes iirc. The early game biomes would by necessity be cut off much earlier if that were the case.

Looking at mistlands it got me thinking. A gjall balloon-ship. As a side, id like to see a "builder's harness" that reduces the weight of building materials and refined metals to ease up on how annoying building can get sometimes.

I'm a bit burnt out on valheim at the moment, but I love the fishing changes I've read about. I know some people hate it, but to me, the fishing in this game is very good. It involves stamina management, it improves a skill, and it doesn't just auto spawn fish when you cast and there's no idiotic mini-game. My small gaming group and I have moved over to Sea of Thieves, and while I truly love that game, the fishing in it is complete bullshit. Long long Valheim fishing!

I thought about something this idea- like either an outfit or an accessory that increases skills faster, creates more items and/or uses less stamina or materials: like a forester's suspenders, chef's hat, blacksmith's apron, etc. Stuff to make crafting/building easier at higher tiers of equipment.

A bunch of decisions from this beta patch seem kind of poor so hopefully they pay attention to feedback. I've been listening to an early history podcast and it's been making me want to play this game a lot more. The narrator is just now getting to the copper age and I caught myself thinking "been there" sympathetically.

They really need to let you group different objects together and plop them down as a set. Also, do enemies only spawn in the mists in the mistlands biome? I found a neat little mistlands archipelago which is just a bunch of rocks jutting out of the water, and no mists to be seen. If I build a base there, will I get owned? I just beat moder.

I've fought seekers along the shoreline and very much not in the mist areas of the biome, so I assume the answer is "no".

The Atomic Man-Boy posted:They really need to let you group different objects together and plop them down as a set. The base structures themselves will prevent spawns in a certain radius, so you can stay safe by proactively carpeting the area with workbenches and campfires. But if it's at the edge of a bigger mistlands, that's not going to stop a gjall from spawning further in and then delicately wafting its way over to your base.

No. The most dangerous area in mistlands are the archipelagos , because seekers will fly out and drop attack you and your boat and it's really hard to fight them off if you can't just sail away instantly I made several mistlands base and a giant road that went from one shore, up and over a big mountain, then down through mistlands to another shore. The seekers are by far the most dangerous thing because of their unexpectedness and accuracy. Gjalls can't aim for poo poo, soldiers can't traverse terrain

I just don't go anywhere near mists in a boat. Seems like a recipe for heartache. Fortunately I don't know if it's a bug or a feature or completely random but there always seems to be a little bit of black forest near the Mistlands where you can stash your boat.

Yeah one of the seeker attacks just sends you flying from the knockback, I fear getting caught by that on a high rock over the water will be a fast way to drown

Presumably that means more liquids that aren't tar or the seas. Maybe the basis for mountain springs/waterfalls?

I think they mean they want more variety in the current pre Ashlands biomes but That’s clearly not the design intent so it’s a futile request. Meadows, Black Forest, Swamp, Mountain and Plains are all very clearly feature complete in terms of the depth the game aspires to achieve.
