Building inside existing structures...

[Beafour]

The most disappointing thing about this game must be the fact that you cant build inside/use existing empty temples, like those at the Mysterious portals to create a base. No enemy spawn, just an empty stone, mostly intact, ruin that is an empty waste of space. This made me sad after getting so excited to build a more perma base there after discovering it.
Such an amazing framework for new player to claim as base, with multistory potential, just wasted. Also prevents you from creating a more cohesive base at or closer to these Mysterious portals...

Probably going to build a base somewhere close anyways. Just going to have to live with the disappointment every time I go there

Well imagine someone doing this and gating off portals to everyone.
Remember this is a multiplayer game first and forward.

Wetlands one you can build 10meters from and it mostly flat, but my oh my so much tall grass, spent 300 foundations now to cover grass

Why do you feel the need to be so confidently wrong? You can still build around and close it off if you want to. You missed the entire point by a mile. I DIDNT SAY INSIDE THE MYSTERIOUS PORTAL. Im starting to think you didnt read any of my post before deciding to comment yourself.

Next time just suppress the urge to comment, I think everyone would appriciate less forced interaction.

Wow you got salty fast, lol. This person you scolded wasn't rude or antagonistic at all, and yet you tell them to "suppress the urge to comment" because they posted their own opinion on the subject you posted YOUR OPINION in your OP?

If you can't handle having your opinion replied to, maybe it's you that should be suppressing the urge to comment? Everyone has equal right to express their opinion, and their opinion does not have to support yours. But hey, this is just my opinion.

I think that it is great that they limit building around the rarer resources and unique place like you mentioned. So many games fail to do this initially. And then later, once people do build there, it is too late to add this to the game.

I've played games where the coolest ruins that you want to explore and admire, are "ruined" by someone that thinks its cool to build their base there.

Would only be slightly better if they allow building in single player, but warn you first that the location is normally blocked.

Yeah, but they dont limit it in a meaningful way though... If the intention was to stop players from barricading it, they failed horribly. You can still barricade it if you want.... People really cant read more than 2 words before they start commenting huh... I clearly state that its about the ruins NEAR the NOT JUST Mysterious portal, but other PoIs. Its an empty building that doesnt block entry to the PoIs at all. There is grass around the Mysterious portals that you can build a barricade on that would block it completely, but again NOT WHAT IM REFERRING TO lol

EZ block lol
You are also lost in the sauce, completely missing the point of both posts. I dont mind comments, constructive criticism, and feedback. IF its relevant to the post. Both of you are commenting on something completely irrelevant to the OP. The places Im referring to doesnt involve blocking entrance to PoIs, its just an empty ruin NEAR the PoIs...

I assume you cant read either so this wont matter ggs

Oh, so we can only say what you want us to say?

I can literally say any random thing I want in this thread if I want to as long as it doesn't violate the steam TOS.

Please get a clue. This is the internet, not your private forum.

lol whats the point? Are you seriously so lonely that you go on random threads commenting something completely irrelevant just to get attention?

Im sorry, I shouldnt have responded, giving you attention, reinforcing your degen behaviour. My bad

Any resource, portal or not, with a building deadzone, has a deadzone big enough that you can't meaningfully barricade it on official server settings, because you can't fit everything into your bonfire's range. That means your barricades will deteriorate and disappear.

I think it'd be nifty to build on those too, but it isn't that kind of game. Maybe someday the devs will add in settings to allow you to build ANYWHERE (if they're smart, they probably won't, since even in a private server you'll have people griefing each other and then idiotically complaining that it's the GAME that's broken...or building cheese platforms to kill bosses and whining the game is too easy), but I doubt it. Too much of the game is reliant the player only being able to build away from important areas, specifically to avoid griefing OR cheesing the game. That open circle where the sabertooth predator is is awfully nice and flat....but what would it do to the boss fight? or to, again, the point you keep dismissing, other people's enjoyment of that part of the game.

And the really important POIs...the boss arenas, the portals, etc.. have HUGE deadzones so that even groups of people working to drop their entire tribe allotment of bonfires in an effort to barricade it would be REALLY hard pressed to do so.

The game is for everyone to play and access everything....and if you happen to be a solo player and are salty that you still can't do those things, blame all the people through the history of gaming who abuse loopholes and then whine that it's too easy now. They're the reason you can't have nice things.

Talk about degen behavior.... you should look in the mirror when you say that.
You seem to have a problem with anything anyone else has to say... and think you're so correct.

I think you're the one with the issues here.

[glaurung]

I completely agree with the topicstarter. Of course, this is unacceptable on public servers, but in a solo game or on a private server such an option would be simply amazing.

Hopefully, mods will be coming to fix this soon (like they did for Conan).

its not broken so there is nothing to fix. its simply qol for offliners.

[vexille.g]

I think on PVP servers they should allow building anywhere apart from near Portals. Not played PVP but assuming its like Conan where enemy bases take damage.

On PVE though there should be no building near any POI. Many are entirely selfish and only think of themselves. Noticed this on a PVE server where someone followed me around today and kept getting in my way. When I told them where to go they acted like I was the one pestering them.

It's worse on PVE server since they know there is not a lot you can do apart from surrounding their base with bonfires, stakes and walls and not even sure if that's legal on PVE official servers. On PVP servers in similar games, though there are jerks, you tend not to encounter same arrogance and entitlement as much.

So considering so many only think about themselves, need to keep everyone oppressed to prevent the selfish ruining things for everyone. Don't usually take this view being a libertarian :D
