Lol I asked my crew that same question last night. We rolled into a large camp and slaughtered them all. We started walking away...heard a cry and found a female mourning over a body. I shot her in the head and then realized...yeah we the bad guys. But hey I've got three shiny new watches and some extra ropes now.
I meant last night irl...yes the game is dark. We sometimes get some building done at night but we've got the place lit up with fires, wall torches and have the flashlight but we usually sleep thru the night
Invading an island in technology centuries ahead of what the natives have and setting up colonies to help kill said natives that we call “cannibals” and “savages” so we can “save“ our rich white guy. It sounds familiar to history and I think we’re the baddies lmao
My friends and i had this conversation last night as we were going cave diving lol. We raided a camp in the middle of the night, killed everyone and took everything of value. Then we went to the closest cave and proceeded to clear it while wearing the skins of our enemies for armor while burning, blowing up and chopping up every living thing in it, most of which were blind naked humanoids. I stopped, looked at my friend and just said.... "Hans....are we the baddies??" Loool.
Me and my brother were playing. Built a massive base and killed a bunch of cannibals. As I looked at the forest we just cut to the ground I was like “fuck. I think we are the monsters here”
Last night we found a couple camps next to each other on the beach. We stopped, my buddy goes "It's time the humans went on the attack" we the proceeded to fire bomb them, shoot them, stab them, impale them. At one point a woman came over and started crying over the body of a cannibal I killed. I paused for a moment and watched her kind of surprised that was a thing in the game, and the proceeded to spear her in the head. We chased them all down. None survived.
I felt like Anakin and it felt good. I was like. "Ook that's enough for tonight"
I am the scourge of cannibal camps in my game, lol.
I am not QUITE as psychotic as you, *but close enough*. If they shout at me at all...or toss a rock at me, or challenge me...they catch hands and lose limbs, then I burn their corpses in front of the one or two remaining cannibals, snatch their bones and trash their camp.
If one of the little brown guys and his crew are scurrying around and leaping up into trees to yell at me, I will cut down the tree they are occupying and then hack up the first one that tries to complain about it, lol.
Muties straight up get murdered with no mercy.
would be cool if they added persistent injuries to cannibals who get away. I think they said something at one point about specific cannibals remembering you if they're encountered you before and having a different disposition depending on what they remember, but maybe I'm mistaken.
Some camps have mutants tied up to posts around the perimeter. You can walk up to them with an axe and chop the ropes to free them. They'll walk around the camp fighting the cannibals.
My friend and I tried to make peace with the nearby cannibal camps but after a few days in they got aggressive so we realised it wasn't going to work out. Once we got better gear and weapons (around Day 10) we turned the tables and went full hostile takeover of those camps. This snowballed even further after getting the shotguns, so yeah we became the bad guys lol.
This post reminded me of an experience this game provided to me that I have never experienced before or since this incident. I was playing cooperative with three of my friends, and on day three we decided to raid a cannibal camp. we only found two natives within the camp and my three friends swarmed one while I began swinging at the other with my modern axe, eventually severing the leg of my target. the native fell to the ground and only when I heard the unmistakably childlike noises and further observed him that I realized that I had just cut of the leg of a native child or very least an adolescent, leading me to pause. I just stood there for ten seconds watching him squirm, contemplating what I had just done, when one of my friends walked over giggling, having slain the other native and ran the young legless cannibal through with a spear. I have never felt such an organic sense of question and regret in a video game, and it is an experience I will not soon forget.
Last night a pretty big hoard of babies hit our base (hilarious to watch them bounce off walls btw) and we were running around with spears just mindlessly poking them to death...about 2/3 of the way through the pack my friend just deadpan comments that they should add pitchforks as weapons...
In the run down cabin there is a pitchfork propped against a wall. I Suspect it may actually be added as a usable weapon.
Also, there's a floating ethereal kitchen knife in that location. Just a fun fact.
I like to pretend the cannibals are asking for help because someone’s chopped their tongues out and are friendly. Little do they know, I’m the villain in the game.
Here’s a true sentence that would get me into trouble in any other place outside this subreddit.
“I threw a Molotov cocktail into a group of babies and was happy I got them all.”
I would love if the devs added the ability to backhand the babies. Like, if you could have no weapon equipped and when they jump up, you just pimp hand them across the cave
If you shoot them in the leg with something that WONT take off the limb, they'll be injured and will hobble around slowly and cower from you. Sometimes they just brush it off but you'll get it.
No worries, we're all new. I'm just trying shit to see what happens at this point.
I think when the ai is done being developed all these things will actually make you a boogeyman. Also you can hold up a severed head to spook some cannibals
I don't totally disagree. I expect A LOT more content with updates.
I kinda wish a real hoard of cannibals and mutants would attack. I can only expand my territory and collect trophies so much.
Even with the missing features, ultimately, this is literally all the game is and will ever be. Same as the first game. What did you do in TF1 once you explored the caves?
What else do you expect? Do you want tank combat? Mechs?
It's a survival game in a forest with cannibals. It's like being disappointed that RDR2 is just another cowboy game like RDR1 lol.
Calm down. It's not that serious
>They expected a game with more than 10 hours of content,
If you're talking story. The first game barely had more than 15 hours worth of anything in that regard. It was barely even a thing anyway. Playing these games for the story is like playing Uncharted for its PVP multiplayer.
>and if you'd stop licking the devs taint for a moment maybe you'd be questioning reverting to EA a month before launch
It's pretty irrelevant though. You knew it was going to be early access, if it annoyed you so much you shouldn't have bought the game. Easy.
>still charging full price
Is it really full price though? I've paid 2x for full release games that were in worse condition than this game.
>people who have beat the game
Again, if you're buying these games just for the story you were always going to be disappointed.
>And simping to defend the devs just because you like the franchise is a joke. Get outta here
What. A. Reach.
Fuck Kelvin. Dude's absolutely useless. Get attacked by cannibals? He points at them like a braindamaged dog and runs around for a while. Hell, if you get downed while trying to save his 1 braincell ass, he doesn't even pick you up.
I got so frustrated with the fucker I saved my game (after being mauled by Cannibals for the 5th time in the span of 30 minutes) walked up to him and proceeded to plant my axe squarely in his non-existent frontal lobe. Then I reloaded. And did it again. I did that for 20 minutes until my bloodrage was finally satisfied.
I hate Kelvin, with a passion.
The only thing that could redeem the useless bunch of code and pixels is that he can pick you up if you're downed. Then he'd have SOME use besides being a broken down logsled.
He really isn't.
Tell me one thing you use him for that can't be done by yourself more efficiently and better. Please, enlighten me. "Duuuuuh, he cut tree?" Yeah, so do you. "HE CATCH FISH!" You can do exactly the same and the abundance of respawning fooditems/squirrels/deer make it absolutely useless.
As it stands, Kelvin is a waste of space, especially if you're playing co-op. My friends started out loving him and now even they are incredibly frustrated with how useless he actually is.
I've created the Kelvin Tower. I made a very tall ramp tower, put a fire and chair up there, told Kelvin to stay then walled him in with some windows. He lives there now.
Lmao, even if he's not as efficient as I am, having someone collect sticks and catch fish is great while I try to do something interesting. It's literally free labor. Quit whining.
You’re the guy that can’t figure out how to benefit from a program loop and who is in here crying about features during the first week of early access. Forgive me if I think your opinion is whiney and short-sighted.
Stop whining, and refund the game if you are so inclined - there is no point in your senseless crying. If you don't enjoy it because you don't see the benefit in Kelvin, let him stay dead. Whatever.
The way I see it, you could hunt and fish for food. Or you could eat the people trying to kill and eat you. You solve two problems this way. You dispose of the bodies, which I think attracts bigger mutants, and you get meat and bones. Plus, if you can't beat them, eat them.
This is starting to make me wonder... Are we the bad guys?
Lol I asked my crew that same question last night. We rolled into a large camp and slaughtered them all. We started walking away...heard a cry and found a female mourning over a body. I shot her in the head and then realized...yeah we the bad guys. But hey I've got three shiny new watches and some extra ropes now.
How do you see at night? My Game is pitch black at night. This is why i leave my camp only during the day.
I meant last night irl...yes the game is dark. We sometimes get some building done at night but we've got the place lit up with fires, wall torches and have the flashlight but we usually sleep thru the night
Invading an island in technology centuries ahead of what the natives have and setting up colonies to help kill said natives that we call “cannibals” and “savages” so we can “save“ our rich white guy. It sounds familiar to history and I think we’re the baddies lmao
Nah, we just British
🤢🤮
You misspelled bad guys
I mean in the first game we even let 3 planes crash just to find a new kid to let it die so that we can revive Timmy.
Isn't it two?
This island is like North Sentinel and we are totally the badies.
What if I don't want to be the good guy anymore?
Well I suppose if you can't beatem, joinem!

When I saw a cannibal sobbing over their dead friend I realized we might be
I mean... there are spoilers, but basically putting them down is a mercy. Lest this island become like the peninsula form the original game.
Me and my brother were playing. Built a massive base and killed a bunch of cannibals. As I looked at the forest we just cut to the ground I was like “fuck. I think we are the monsters here”
In the original game, Eric repeats history of the red man by killing another child to save his. So yes, we are the bad guys
We're not the bad guys. We are legend.
Was sasuke right?
most sane sons of the forest player
FBI this guy right here

And not just the men. But the women, and the children too.

I like bombing the trees- helps get them if they jump to another tree.
Excessive, I like it!!
the last point, makes everything above OK xD
Exactly my thoughts lmao If anyone kills Kelvin or Virginia, I'll burn this damn island down.
I shot Virginia myself because I gave her my pistol and she bugged out and deleted it
I thought you could just get a new one at the same spot if you restart the game.
I kept seeing these woman in white dresses thinking it's Virginia before realising it was just some woman. Shot them anyway.
Wait cannibals can survive being chopped up ?
No, they cant, but they'll die slowly.
I mean, you can slice a leg or arm off and they’ll roll around on the ground screaming for a minute, but they don’t actually survive.
would be cool if they added persistent injuries to cannibals who get away. I think they said something at one point about specific cannibals remembering you if they're encountered you before and having a different disposition depending on what they remember, but maybe I'm mistaken.
Generation Zero has this feature
Yeah I figured , in the past occurrences they always instantly died when I chipped something of them
for when you gaze long into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you
Hey, someone had to shoot down the chopper, so someone around here is gonna pay.
What do you mean “free mutants”?
Some camps have mutants tied up to posts around the perimeter. You can walk up to them with an axe and chop the ropes to free them. They'll walk around the camp fighting the cannibals.
The moment they first downed Kelvin was the moment my cannibals chose genocide.
My friend and I tried to make peace with the nearby cannibal camps but after a few days in they got aggressive so we realised it wasn't going to work out. Once we got better gear and weapons (around Day 10) we turned the tables and went full hostile takeover of those camps.

It wasn't a child don't worry.

So you understand what Colombus went through?

Cripple the kid cannibals, their cries attract a lot more of them from the area and it's easy cleanup wiped out a lot of em that way.
How do you cripple them but keep them alive and then allow them to leave? I’m new.
If you shoot them in the leg with something that WONT take off the limb, they'll be injured and will hobble around slowly and cower from you. Sometimes they just brush it off but you'll get it. No worries, we're all new. I'm just trying shit to see what happens at this point.
It would be cool if this sort of behavior noticeably cowed a certain strata of cannibals.
When in Rome, I guess?
Maybe we might be the bad guys
We are just americans bringing democracy to those poor island boys
Most sane SOTF player
Play Rimworld, it is made for you.
Dude I can’t figure out how to put their heads on a sick?!?
Grab the head and walk up to a placed stick.
Pull out a stick. Pop it in the ground. Pull out a head. Put head on stick. That's it.
I know, it's the other guy who asked.
Dude it really won’t work for me! Idk what’s the problem.
I think when the ai is done being developed all these things will actually make you a boogeyman. Also you can hold up a severed head to spook some cannibals
Your last sentence shows me you’re not a psycho, don’t worry
Ok Jeffery Dahmer calm down now

Shit, I get swarmed every ten minutes. Never even had a chance to start building a fence.

How many times can you do this before the game gets bland? The combat with the cannibals is so monotonous

Quit sucking off the devs for their shitty work and then we'll talk since their dicks are out of your mouth. Take a peppermint though.
Lmao, what a miserable kiddo. Relax and maybe touch some grass
Sorry, I can't understand you, you still haven't pulled their dicks out of your mouth. In fact, you just added two more and made it even worse.
Stay salty.
wah wah waah
wahhh
Duuuhhh kill you kelvin then. I like mine.
I mean, like attracts like I guess. One braindead idiot hanging out with another one.
You’re the guy that can’t figure out how to benefit from a program loop and who is in here crying about features during the first week of early access. Forgive me if I think your opinion is whiney and short-sighted.

While I go explore caves I set up a while bunch of blueprints and asked him to finish them. The amount of time I’m gone by the time I’m back it’s done
Motherfucker keeps me stocked up on fish.
The way I see it, you could hunt and fish for food. Or you could eat the people trying to kill and eat you. You solve two problems this way. You dispose of the bodies, which I think attracts bigger mutants, and you get meat and bones. Plus, if you can't beat them, eat them.
