Do you think they should add more extreme errosion?

[South_Of_Nowhere]

So lets say you start the day of. You have lots of scared NPC's running the streets and everything is somewhat normal looking or you start 20 years after and there are vines in buildings and everything has plants and trees growing through the floors. also I think the warm color set of the game should fade as you get more depressed and in general things should feel more aged and unmaintained as time goes on. Kinda like the beginning of the last of us vs the time you play in.

1. NPC's are being worked on currently. 2. Not sure about vines and plants growing. Ive seen them on multiplayer servers, which may have been a mod. So there is at least a mod that can do that.

There is definitly erosion in the game.

6 or 7 weeks in, many houses, mine included, have vines and plants growing on the walls, most roads have big holes etc

It would be cool if paint started to fade and the like.
Just watch Life after people to get and idea on extreme errosion.

Yeah, I want things to get dull looking after time.

Love that show. Wish they would do more.

And yeah, you get about 5 and 6 months in things start looking real ruff.

When you managed to survive for a long time (iam speaking about 12 mmonth), you will notice the map will changed by erosion.

I remember i joined a server where i havnt played for a long time, and it was hard to know where i was due all this new trees ;=)

Yes, I want to be able to warp time to 20 years in the future, and turn everything into a forest with old ruins of buildings in it. That would be awesome. As of right now, there is an erosion cap that pisses me the hell off. There should at least be an option to turn off the cap. The original erosion mod that the current erosion came from didn't have a cap, and it could go crazy after a long time. It was awesome. Why does it need a cap now?

[Tarvonie]

Yeah, would love to see buildings start falling apart from lack of repair. Be like playing in that show about what will happen after people are gone, lol

I'd be ok with this if the game permitted us to maintain our buildings. Having an option to repair structures with the appropriate skills and resources. It'd be real nice to see buildings start falling apart, but I'd be disappointed if my base also fell apart while I'm drowning in material and skill.

I'd prefer if any sort of extreme erosion happened on a much larger timescale. Gives something to shake up the game by month six or so, when regular erosion has already run its course.

I mean for the heavy stuff for sure. I am talking about major enviroment change, similar to the last of us so that would be half to a full year.

Last of Us had most of its urban decay caused not by age, but by military action. Cities and the like were shelled and bombed to try and slow the infection. The first town you visit wasn't a target of such a campaign, and barring the buildings where vehicles crashed, everything is in quite respectable condition, which is fairly accurate. Drywall has molded, pipes have burst, but anything built with more than wood and plaster is gonna out live us all.
