Why cave routes lead south?

Well that's kind of the point... Why should caves exist that put you further into content that you aren't ready for?

They should all lead to where you've already been, not where you havn't.

You are all wrong. The cave should lead to my castle, for I m the Batman.

You have a right and a wrong answer, they absolutely can lead to areas that you're ready for. It's a option to take it or to not. Why would you need to go backwards?

They exist as fast travel points to places you've already been, with the ability to drag resources backwards if you have the teleport off. Making them go both ways would make the restriction on teleport a moot restriction. If you have teleport on, just use the teleporters. They're better anyway.

And no, they wouldn't lead to areas you can handle, since you'd find those passageways before you were ready for the areas they lead to. Finding that cave down in the southeast that takes you straight up into dunleys would give players some weird opportunities that they would have to otherwise first climb north a ways before they'd have access to.
I would have absolutely have been running around dunleys grabbing whatever I could before retreating back into the cave with whatever I found up there in my first playthrough.

They would be useless if flipped. Good for one move. Thanks to caves leading South I can establish my base from the getgo and feel like I live up north. Not to mention it's safer. From the cave to my castle I have only a short run and most people I pass are low lvls. Perfect. I teleport to North and come back safe and sound through cave. I wouldn't mind moving north but by the time I'm ready there is like 0 viable spaces. So until I find new home this neat trick makes living south a breeze, rather than a chore.

What are you talking about? Teleport on or off it doesn't matter this has no effect on caves.

Caves you can travel with resources, regardless of that option.

Yes, which would make the restrictions on teleporters moot, since you can just use those to transfer resources across large distances either way. What did you not understand?

That limitation is there for a reason. If you can just bypass it, then what reason would that limit have to exist?

you answered your own question.. caves enable you to haul ressources to bases located in low level area

Kinda missing the point because I talked about this.

Why is that a good thing? Why move at all then? Why doesn't everyone just stay in the low level zone? Eventually it becomes problem & impossible for joining players to find a castle spot.

It's not healthy for the server is all I'm saying.

Most people who are out to just annoy/piss off/troll new players to a server do exactly this - stay in low level zones and block off as much as they can. Hell, if they do it right they can completely block off entering the map entirely.

This is why I refuse to play on public servers.

farbane has room for easily over 70-100 bases and you cant build on roads to block of virtual enemies/ressources either.. dunno how you guys manage to block an entite map

caves should just work both ways.. period and require one of the forms that you obtain to use.. that's is.. the fact that I can only take a cave.. that I know of existing and it's location that I just came through.. where it is.. one direction is stupid.
