Getting logs

[Bacon Overlord®]

Just starting out and the hints keep say to chop down trees with the stone axe, but there are at least three varieties of trees in the area and NONE of them will allow me to chop them down. They say I need better equipment.

So... is this just bugged or something?

So the basic axe you can first make only cuts down the small fir trees, look for the little spindly ones, not the big ones. Once you make a crafting station you can make a big stone axe to cut down those bigger trees. You need an iron axe to cut down the birch trees.

edit - those bigger fir trees will give you logs and big sticks.

There are no spindly ones. There are only the big ones and the big ones say you can't cut them down. Just going to refund this anyway... spent almost 30 minutes just trying to find a tree to cut down. That's not "fun" in my book.

No, the small fir trees are everywhere. But if you can't spot one in 30 minutes probably best you do refund, I doubt you would enjoy the game.

Yeah... that's... what I said. There are none where I spawned.. I think the randomization didn't place any or something. Either way it's far too overly complicated for my taste... why make someone take extra steps for no reason. if you have fiber let people just make a tool instead of having to braid it up into a rope, lol. That's just extra clicking for no reason if they have enough fiber. Stuff like this and a non-integrated main screen where you can access all the stuff like building, crafting, etc. makes this game seem like its' going to be a chore.

Said the guy that actually literally owns Hello Kitty Island...

But, I guess that's where you got the idea which is kind of obvious.

Okay there are two type of fir trees, The large ones, and the skinny ones. The skinny ones come in two models. One is tall and the other is short. The wider fir trees require tier 2 ax.

Gotcha. I already refunded. If the game can't figure out how to spawn the Tier 1 trees near the start area then that's just a symptom of bigger issues I don't really want to deal with anyway.

I appreciate your response though.
