What's the most annoying thing about dst for you?
I'm wondering what y'alls least favorite thing is about this game we enjoy(if you don't enjoy the game at all this isn't directed towards you). Sure, its fun and we get to play with friends but I'm sure someone has something they wish was different about it.

My personal is playing with tryhard noobs. By that I mean people who aren't very good at the game/have much less hours than me trying to go alpha on me. Neglecting the team aspect. Tryhard noob also falls with those people who eat the monster jerky, beg for a res every few days, and refuse to stop eating the monster meat/jerky after being told multiple times that it's bad and for the crock pot. Or those people who will carry literally all of the reserve resources I stashed away for the winter so I'm left with my roaming grass, twigs, and flint(20 each) and nothing to restock in the chests.

Anyway, I'm certain there are worse than arrogant noobs y'all have encoutered so feel free to share!

The most annoying thing in this game to me is how hard it is too tell what langauge a server is.
when ever i check the tags of servers it almost always says "english" then when I join the game everyone is speaking some other langauge.

Elitist players that rudely refuse to share with anyone outside of their friend group.

I guess it’s more of a flaw in the games cooperative mechanics than the people but it’s still annoying.

People who assume "Don't Starve Together" means you HAVE to play together

is it bad that sometimes I want to play alone, and be in a server for the potential human interaction? I mean, wilderness mode and PVP exist for a reason.

Nights and constant needs for torches / laterns / firepits / fuels.
And not be able to hold axe+torch.

After awhile it gets boring - charlie was never dangerous.

But yeah lights all out world are a different beast and make more sense ...

Welcome to steam useless filters.
99% of guides are flagged as english but most are random gibberish and never sorted correctly. Valve doesn't seem to understand the concept of language.

Not being able to pause.

In single player I got addicted to the wiki for planning everything out and have nothing memorized. Having to make decisions in real time where mobs have more hp is just frustrating.

That's true. In singleplayer I also pause the game a lot to look at the wiki or grab a cup of tea-or look at my inv because the lantern didn't go back to 3rd slot like it should have. It was defiantly a big change to have to log out to not die afk.

Legit my only problem with this game is its Lagg Lmao, After playing for about 200 days which is so fun, you end up becoming too laggy to be able to play, Even hosting a £40 / $55 dedicated server monthly it still has the same issues, Everything else about this games problems are just opinional issues that you can resolve yourself by playing elsewhere but this is an issue that's just been around since the dawn of DST

Meteor fields gradually encroaching on what used to be a good base location.

You can pause, but that is a solo experience. There are specific pause mods for DST.
But when you will play with friends they will rage quit for sure :p

here looky:

The mod perfectly demonstrates why global pausing is VERY bad for coop and destroys fun and flow for party!
Good on paper, bad in reality.

Summer heat. It's worse than winter's cold (mostly because thermal stone has only 1 cold level).

Guy was talking about DST servers not guides.
aAnyway it's people who check "my guide is in english" not valve.

Rude players, as some have mentioned already, def can ruin a round of public play for me. Noobs who try and leech off of you at base, but at least they are manageable. Elitists who won't help newer players one bit and/or try to direct everyone else's game play. Uncooperative players who have agreed to base with you, but will not take the time to actually help the group out as a whole, or tell important information. (i.e. Tree guards in base; "I decided to move the camp clear across the map"; etc.)

Honestly it's expierenced (or pseudo-expierenced) players who I've seen cause the most damage to a public server. Generally the above mentioned gets people killed, to quit, or branch off into a different camp(s). I have to admit I do like that people are one of the biggest factors to survival in this game, however. xD

Outside of arsehats, I do hate meteors, and on Shipwrecked dragoon eggs. The former can eventually creep into your base, and the latter has such a wide range, it's easy to end up with a obliterated base once Summer hits, not realizing you parked just a TAD too close.

Realising there is a mod that changes one, small but absolutely crucial thing, and you realise it too late.

The Shadow Duelist movement pattern in DST drives me nuts. I vastly prefer them just swarming and attacking recklessly as they do in DS than... Whatever it is they're trying to accomplish in DST. I'm assuming it's meant to make them survive longer, but where in singleplayer I can use them to clear out killer bees and other smaller mobs with ease, in DST I feel like they are not useful at all except as a means to lower my sanity.

Players who stay at base all summer and winter doing nothing but cleaning out the icebox, then complain that we're running low on food.
