hi,
@ tr, i fully agree with you about the quest system

Hi. One thing to keep in mind, this quest system is a very very early beta. By 1.0, admins will be able to make quests, and readable maps etc. I would have added more to the system, but you guys wanted the update so bad, and adding to much more to the update would introduce so many bugs that the update wouldn't be fun. Also aside from fixing broken things, don't expect anymore things like, oh, vending machines, drugs, an insane amount of stores in the fishing village... I will keep what I've added, but honestly, this game here is called survive the wild, and it's turning into, survive the fishing village. So expect a lot more survival elements, and expect things, even traveling by boat, to get much harder. I won't make the micanics that hard and I will keep the game playable, but it's getting more and more modern each update, something that must be fixed. So most if not all suggestions like moder boats or cars or marawana or another fishing village store, will be rejected. But if you have any suggestions on how to bring back the name survive the wild, i'm all for it. Again, not going to remove what I have, and the game will always be sort of sandbox stile, but i'm thinking of again moving the fishing village, like, a lot, lot, lot, like, maybe adding something rediculis like 10 or 15 full sized maps of ocean or something. This may piss some people off, but i've listened to to many modern suggestions, now for some wilderness suggestions... This is the reason I havn't bothered to make it so you can't steel coins out of vending machines, etc. Also, the story is being completely redone from scratch. There are a couple things still, like wyatt, for example, but most changed completely. So again, actual wilderness suggestions apreciated!

Unless boating is changed so you don't have to keep mashing T over and over, the game is going to be Survive The carpel tunnel Syndrome if things are going to be further away. Lol. People also arent going to want to leave the village if it's going to be a huge pain to get there and then back. Quite honestly, the only people who are going to be "pissed off" are the ones who don't buy teleporters.

As for making it more Survive The Wild and less modern, maybe add crafting recipes for clothing using furs and such. The Native Americans used to weave clothes out of cedar too. Maybe digging for water could also be a thing instead of always going to a stream or the ocean.

So I'm glad @Sam_Tupy brought up these points because this game is starting to look like live in the village indeed. The key problem in this game is the fact that players simply don't have much to really keep them motivated. Right now, you can go to any map and walk around as if nothing is happening around you, with the exception that animals are present on some maps and only bears and wolves pose a threat. For example, we can travel through a marsh, or a swamp without incident. There are no mosquitoes, alligators, crocodiles, snakes, and monitor lizards waiting to take a chunk of flesh off of us with a vicious bite of their serrated teeth and rip into us with their razor sharp claws. We simply had nothing to worry about up until sharks and that still needs some patching up before it actually works. We simply need the game to be much more challenging than it currently is.
Another thing is items. I said it before, but a reminder could help; All items should be crafted or obtained in a natural way. Yes we have coins and points now, but that is still depending a lot on a system of obtaining those coins and points in order to then get certain items. I'm glad that shields can now be crafted, but the suggestion of crafting clothing is certainly on the table, since we basically have to wait for them to spawn in a shop, which makes the game seem more modern. This may take a while to implement, but it's certainly a good way to get people out of the village. Medicines should also be mixed by gathering herbs from the forests and then boiling water on the fire in a pot and then adding in the various elements. Slingshots are simple and should be easy to build, as well has have their name changed from "rock gun", as their is no such thing as a rock gun.
The other issue is the infinite inventory system, which allows players to carry an infinite amount of items on them. The purpose of shelters is to provide places for us to store excess amounts of material for later use, which means that we have to be able to secure them. Right now, any player can enter another player's shelter without any trouble. This should be much harder in the future. as far as the bag, a limit on 100 items could be applied to all players, free and paid accounts alike. The rest of the items can be stored in our shelters, or other hiding spots.
Finally, there is the combat and weapon system. Revolvers are still single shot, which is a pain in the ass. clips would be much more preferable, or being able to load multiple bullets at one time; this would work much the same way as the crossbow. As of now, only the sword can actually parry attacks, but the other melee weapons still cannot be used to do so; in the case of the spear, you could use shift+space to parry, or distinguish between left and right alt, so that left alt+space can parry, while right alt+space can throw. The knife should also parry and be used as a throwing knife, considering many of us have multiple knives in our bags. Even the guns could have bayonets attached to their muzzles, which could give us more range. We could even use one of our knives as a bayonet by attaching it to one of our guns.
I hope I didn't overwhelm you with so many of these suggestions, as I typically seem to do. I just have a great vision for this game and would surely be implementing most of them if I was the developer. Hopefully, you will be able to take it back to its wild roots.

I understand that, but I was referring to people entering your shelter, not outright destroying it.

I have completed all of the quests

at the other post that menschened the bag limit to all players, I'm dissagreeing not completely, but still dissagreeing with that method. free accounts have that limitation because well, they are free accounts and need to have the player at least a little bit motivated to purchase a premium account or what ever. If we all had that limitation payd accounts would be pointless.
about the medicines, I suggested that just long ago, but with the slight curve that what I've suggested were potions and the new coldrin item thingy. That, would be hilariously hard to code 1 for the herbs, 2 for the mixing or whatever thing before it burns, and 3 for the actual good and bad mixtures and the wrong effects it can make towards your body.

while having the 100 of each item limit for a free account is survivable, especially because the limits for water and stored water are higher ... having 100 items in your bag, at least for the current gameplay, just isn't enough. if you are playing that way you might as well just have a fiew pots and water, and then nothing else. While there could be item limits, they would need to be much higher.
Currently, everyone can enter your shelter. Everyone can pick items. Anyone can blow up your shelter. If you drop some items and if nobody picks them up for some reason, they might be cleared by admins, because we do that if there are to many items on the surver because of the lag, or even more likely this days, cleared by the surver. To make this work out sam would have to change a lot of the game, actually.
And no, free accounts can collect 16 gifts per day. As far as I know, limited items are only real limitation so far, that, and not having the shiny * before your name.

I don't really like this idea because it's fun to carrie your whole stuff within you, attached to your smoll butkicked body, but lets see what sam thinks.

Hi everyone, I decided to go back to the wild again. My question is, how do I find things I want like water sources and trees? Since the coordinates system was removed, I can't memorize locations of trees and water sources. So when I first log on to the game, I usually die from thirst because I can't find any water souoce near my starting point.
Any tips about finding objects would be great.
Thanks

@momo7807, the water is east (on the start, that's right) of the clay, west/left of the grass. When you first create your account, you can just press up arrow a fiew times and you'll already be at the water, you allways spawn there for the first try. There is a water bottle in your survival pack, combine it with your hand to open it. You also have a bag of cups, each of them can have 5 water in it when filled. To find items, you press m and read what's in the menu. for finding diferend landtipes like clay or tree, you press k. after that, just walk twords it and press n to see how far it is from you.
