FLIPADELPHIA posted:They really just should have added iron veins, at a lower spawn rate, to the mountains. Players would still need to go through the swamp to acquire great quantities and to get the wishbone but making people go back to the swamp is kind of a bummer, especially when the quantity of iron is fully dependent on the number of crypts and their contents, both subject to wild swings of RNG. Iron is the worst part of game, it's so tedious to gather and even the plains recipes inexplicably need a ton of it to craft and upgrade stuff. IMHO plains absolutely needs to have mineable iron.

The big thing for me is that they are adding new monsters/animals for Hearth and Home, so basically beefing up the existing biomes a bit, which is good.

All I really want is for them to beef up the existing systems. Mistlands are cool and all, but the world is already huge and we have a good variety of biomes. Would be nice if there were more random landmarks in current biomes (like the trader or the draugr villages), more enemy variety, more gear to craft that promotes different playstyles. They are already beefing up variety in food and housing, so that's a start. Mountain biome for one needs a lot more to do.

I'm ok with portals not being able to transport ore early on because it would completely break the difficulty curve since it's so trivial and cheap to set up portals all over the map. Being able to completely circumvent carts, transporting by boat or dealing with sea monsters like 2 hours into the game would remove a lot from the game - hell, these are the first parts of the game where the danger starts ramping up and were actually exciting as a new player. That being said, there should be an upgraded portal that you can invest a lot of resources or time into mid-to-late game to freely move resources between permanent settlements. QoL stuff like being able to replant stuff easily/cleanly is completely fine though and would not be surprised to see in H&H, tbh. And mods that make it easier to build underwater without using silly glitches.

pik_d posted:I've just started watching this so I don't know exactly whats in it: Feels weird that they are adding more to the plains, it feels like the plains already has plenty of stuff that require you to colonize it in a way that none of the other biomes do. Really would like to see the mountains get beefed up a bunch, it has the least depth of any of the biomes (save Ocean, which is barely implemented), and I love building castles up there. e: I do remember the video where they showed the two-handed crystal axe that makes me hopeful that farming elementals or drake nests might be a thing at least.

Idk how it scales late game, but in a new game/new character, Bronze Age the food/stam felt fine. Double meat + yellow mushroom/queen's jam felt like it did before and rolling double stam food for mining/logging even felt way better than before. I think the serpent meat did have something comical like 5 stamina, and the late game food was obscenely broken before so I can see some pain points. I was able to deal with several trolls in leather armour/crude bow using dodge rolling without any stam problems - I can see how Fulings might be a problem without the OP food from before though.

Ravenfood posted:Not using the time she lands to hit her with melee attacks probably didn't help. Moder in particular has terrible melee hitboxes and the locations that the game spawns her in tend to be loving terrible for melee (and her attacks deform the terrain to make it even worse). Also sometimes when you go into melee she just glitches and pins you down in place until she flies again. It's a poo poo boss. It really needs a large pre-constructed arena like all the other bosses to be remotely functional.

Bioshuffle posted:I still haven't found a single tar pit. My experience so far has been wandering around the plains while picking off a deathsquitos and a gob or two until I stumble across a whole swarm of them, forcing me to run away in a different direction. Rinse and repeat. I heard the tar monsters are a pain in the butt. What's the best way to dispatch of them? You can outstrafe them like the javelin goblins or if you are feeling frisky you can dodge roll through their attack to close the gap, they have a long cooldown before they can attack again

Completely walling off your base and making it so enemies outside can't see your you or your workbenches/smelters usually curtails their aggression to a manageable level. Before I did it at every base it was just a constant stream of enemies in every biome. You can also dig out trenches around your base that enemies can't cross but I've never really found the need to.

I hope we get something cool, but my expectations are tempered after H&H. I would settle for some bug fixes at this point, the world that I had been playing most recently has buggy crypts that crash the game when I walk into specific spots and it sucks a lot.

Fruits of the sea posted:Hey, how much has this been updated since release? Is there a new biome yet? There was only one somewhat major update that did a lot of little combat and food changes and seemed to really buff the rate of monster spawns (and foraging spawns anecdotally) and added new monsters + materials to the plains, and a very small update that added a new monster and gear for the swamp. No new biomes. There are several mods that have fleshed out the existing unfinished biomes though.

BrianRx posted:I have played 400+ hours of Valheim and had never experienced a crash until last night, when I had two. I'm running a dedicated server with a friend that I set up with, what I now know to be, fairly non-standard tools and configurations. Both times, it happened in a particular place in a swamp and wiped about an hour of work from the character (but not the world). Anyone else encounter this? Seems like a bad chunk or maybe object that loads when I get within a certain distance of it. I'll just avoid that area for now, but now I'm nervous about it happening anywhere new. My friend and I played at different times so he may have done something, but I can't think of what. Is anything documented or has it happened to anyone else? The only time I ever crashed was on my fourth world when entering one crypt in the swamp and going to the first room on the left would crash me 100% of the time instantly

Would be nice if they added stuff that made day-to-day base operations in "conquered" areas easier. Like a bonfire upgrade that annihilates deathsquitos, or anti-damp cloaks for the swamp, etc. Should also be a way to just eradicate spawns around your base, this is especially bad in the mountains where the drakes (which are never even a threat) will just constantly break your castle roofs over and over lol e: Could be a good use for trophies, turn in biome trophies to the trader to buy a bug zapper!

It would be neat to see more variety within the biomes, even if it is just an A/B option. Like a hot/cold version of the swamp that looks a little different and has different resources and wildlife that are equivalent in tier level. Or alternatively more 'setpiece' locations with abnormal mobs/resources like the draugr villages in meadows for the other zones.

Would be very nice to be able to craft fish farms and just plunk them down in the pools where fish spawn. As far as I can tell nobody has really come up with a good terrain mod/build system to beach them automatically either. They are revamping fishing at least a little bit with the next expansion, don't know about fish traps but it might be possible since they are adding traps for use on land in Mistlands https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/892970/view/6128850732742902908

Valheim has ruined me for other survival games. It’s hard to get past how annoying the survival mechanics are in stuff like Raft and Grounded are compared to Valheim. Astroneer was a lot of fun with friends, though. Still I need Mistlands to come out soon, I need another hit…

acumen posted:Funny I found Grounded had so many QoL features I'm having difficulty returning to Valheim. I know a lot of it can be modded away but still, feels pretty bare-bones in comparison. That being said the general atmosphere and ambiance of Valheim is unsurpassed in survival games. Was not really a huge fan of raw meat and cooked food expiring in Grounded, not sure what the point of that was. It also had the same issue for me as Raft did where you need to use resources to repair your gear (though to be fair, the mats were nowhere near as frustrating to get as in Raft lol). Difficulty curve was really off for us as well. I guess I just really prefer the simple and casual atmosphere of Valheim more.

Mistlands is definitely a little overtuned. Either the Gjall and Warriors need to be toned down a bit or the terrain needs to be flattened out a bit. I couldn't imagine doing it solo. The rewards for it are also kind of mediocre (the weapons are pretty cool at least). Also the Gjall fire damage doesn't even seem to be affected by fire resist mead. The atmosphere and the art design are cool, definitely wouldn't be diminished by having less annoying terrain though!

The tweaks look good, no more bug raids on non-endgame bases is a nice change for co-op servers and hopefully the Gjall spawn rate decrease is significant...they spawned so much outside our base lol Kinda wish they would demonstrate what they want us to do with the ballistas -- it's nice that they seem to be more efficient and effective at actually killing monsters but they still shoot friendlies...

I climbed up this weekend on the beta build and the changes to Mistlands enemy spawning feels really good. I didn't even see a Gjall for the first couple of hours exploring Mistlands and when I did, the nerfs to the projectile made it significantly easier to deal with. They still really need to take another crack at the topography and worldgen though: 1)When you are not in the valleys, mistlands is really annoying to get around 2) The mist reveal radius should also probably be doubled 3) So far my maps have been 2/2 having Moder pawns surrounded by mistlands which both really suck for getting to it but also seems to warp the topography of the mistlands even more lmao. The views from the mountain of the surrounding unshrouded mistlands is really great though, which also makes me wish for more visibility, it really is a spectacular biome. Feels like Mistlands was meant to launch with either ropes or a grappling hook, would make a lot of the janky hopping parts much more tolerable. Or explosives to blast through sheer rock walls!

Easy way to deal with Aboms is to kite it over a surtling pit, it annihilates them fyi. Also just taking your lumps they are really easy to learn how to parry since their telegraphs are super deliberate. Idk the swamp kinda rules aside from the wet debuff. It has a ton of every midgame resource you will want and good enemy variety. e: also if you want to super cheese crypts and make them trivial, build the Stagbreaker. When you are halfway through the gunk and see enemies in the other room you can just spam slam with the Stagbreaker and kill them all without being attackable.
