Character should not be THAT week!

[quetzaquotl]

I am harvesting wood - killed by a spyder. I am scouting new species - killed by a spyder. And so on.
Since you are not pushed automaticly out of the current action you loose so much health until you eventually get out of the task, that it means in most cases death and restart from the respawn point - witch seams to be atm always your village. (I suppose the tent acts as respawn later, but I am not this far atm.)
So - @devs - plz make the char mor robust at the beginning, it is quite frustrating for a game, that is supposed to be a more cosy game.

You can dodge with CTRL, just some friendly info-..

No, you can´t doge if you in the middle of a task, harvesting with the shovel for example. That´s the point.

Oh, my bad, just thought you didn't know how to dodge. I got killed while harvesting twice myself. lmao

I totally agree with you, last night it pissed me off....dying all the time, when you're supposed to be in a quieter, safer zone? no, they put spider nests in your face...plus with this crappy Weapon and Tool Wheel.....you can't switch weapons or tools faster, because there are no key options...

[Mavor]

Clear the area first, spear and dodging trivializes the spider things.

Also, if you hear combat music - don't harvest yet... =P

[magdalena]

I don't have the spear yet... I found an iron shovel, but even so, it's killing me... I hate them ^^ why do you always put spiders in games ^^ sniff, plus it's hard to see them, they're dark, and blend in with nature.
Thank you very much

[Omence072]

Situational and environmental awareness. Plus, if a spider that big attacked me...I'd poo myself and die.

[magdalena]

Well, as soon as I see them, I try to run away, but sometimes they manage to kill me.

[Tenoshii]

Agreed. I think the most straightforward way to address this would be to allow the player to craft at least 1 melee weapon (i.e. a club made from 1 or two sticks or something) the same time the player gets the capability to craft tools.

Waiting to give the player access to weapons until they do the quest with the warrior lady is too long depending on where the player puts their village marker and colossal tree seed.

good point! The spiders blend too much into nature - wich is a general point that needs improovement, everything must be much better reedable (recources, small creatures etc)

Its supposed to be cross-platform but its not! Like why did they advertise and show it like that function was already in place huh? If you cant play with your friends at all yet! This is false advertisement and really just wack! that Devs are doing this now it seems in all the games they are releasing!

It should be priced as 5.99 until its ready! Like how can you charge the price of a fully complete game that's not even ready! What how much do you intend to charge the hard working gamers for this game huh 35.99, if so you guys are really something else!! Okay I can make a game but I have lots of ideas of what I would like in one but its not about me and what i can or cant do its about what I have paid for and this really is not it!

I did not sign up to fight creatures that looks like the ones from ALIENS the movie on my own! I can not fight! I need help from my friends, together we can do something alone im just screaming all the time and dying! Plus whats with this stupid mask on my face huh? why can i not see my characters face? I want to see who I am and feel connected to my Character, just stop this nonsense please its not funny!

Have you opened up Portals yet? If a player hasn't, they cannot join anyone until they do.

To be fair, yes, you did. You must have seen at least the trailer on Steam, if not YouTube reviews or Let's Play videos as well, so you knew what to expect. How many hours have you played? You might be way ahead of me. I admit I'm only 3 hours in, but I'm killing the stuff on the starter island - only Spiders are hostile so far - with no issues. The Spear is lethal, chewing spiders for breakfast, and choose a nice spot to fire your bow from, and you can pick several Spiders off easily. I see no reason why tougher mobs can't be killed as easily when better weapon recipes are learnt.

Please don't make assumptions for me. I did see in steam but i did not look at it up close or under a telescope, I liked it because of the green scenery and because it was multiplayer and it looked like something different and is something different, but I am not a fighter and not very good at playing alone, hence why I don't buy or play single player games, i play with my sister and group of friends always, and together we try to fight the enemies together. Now if our crazy warrior friend was in the game i would not complain about this fact BUT hes NOT! and im not ashamed to admit this female is not blood thirsty and is into the environment and farming side okay. Also it takes me time to find things out and when your scared to go into the bloody darkness/ shadows/dark fog, well i might have ended up playing for 20 hours before i discovered anything about weapons. I have been trying to use the shovel and like most people i have read they also die a lot from them spiders especially when harvesting. Its just not as fun and im just not as brave without my friends and i NEED them okay!

Did you get the Spear weapon? I only used it a few times. Kills seem faster using it.

[Maxpain]

I just climb on large rocks and throw stones at them as i have not yet unlocked the range weapons.
