Larger Storage Container?
My Tribe is having a tough time holding all the resources we gather through the large storage boxes. We have at least 15+ Large Storage Containers atm. Metal/Charcoal/Stone/Wood is eating up the storage room. Granted between all of us we use it rather quickly, however, it is a hassle to consistently have to move items around to fit everything in.

Any possible container (Like a Metal Container/Upgraded Container) planned for the future?

Containers need to hold items, not weight. I can put one stack of stone in a small container, which leaves like 11 empty slots. If weight wasn't an issue containers would be more useful.

Agreed. Hope they will increase the weight cap a bit. Because currently two stacks of 100x Metal and it's gg for the container.

A volume system would make more sense, honestly.
Agreed. It seems odd that containers measure weight. It's not like you're carrying them around.

Bump.

The heavy stuff like stone and wood should be used right away, its not like you need to store it unless you dedicated some people to gathering and some people to building <_<

We have dedicated people to gathering/building/hunting. :p And once we all go out and farm Metal for quite some time we come back and I have to build more Stash space to put it because of the Weight Cap.

I also like to go out and farm lots, stash it, repeat, after which I can start building everything in one go. Instead of going out, pick up some wood, having to build like a tiny part of my base, having to go out again or having to build like 100 storage boxes to fit my storing needs. I also play on a server with my friends and we allways (like in other games) farm not only for ourselves, but also for the (sudden) needs of others.

@the devs: if you don't want wooden logs and big piles of stone in small chest because realism, I wouldn't mind building storage shacks dedicated to storing wood/metal/stone.Would be cool even to have those shacks in our bases imo.
