we need more than a bow to hunt

[Monke]

for a game that has giant lasers and stuff to blow up a meteor yall are really lacking in hunting equipment




...no disrespect i adore this game just need some more variety in hunting gear is all. perhaps like a hunting rifle or something along those lines

[Fulesa]

Maybe some traps, too?

[Infield pass]

I hear what you say about the technological inconsistency between a bow and a laser but gameplay-wise it would be terrible to have a rifle. It's too overkill. The worlds sizes and the animals IA are just incompatible with a good hunting experience. I don't really see many more hunting technics until they change the IAs, except traps (like a whole in the ground covered with leafs and branches)

[⎛⎝Tiùwilo⎠⎞]

Lure traps would be nice though. With headshots actually doing something now, if you could just set a trap that maybe immobilizes animals or keeps them distracted for an easy headshot, it'd make for a great tool to support the bow.
Maybe a crossbow with less of a projectile drop and faster bolt speed could do as a tech upgrade, if they truly don't want firearms.

We need breeding animals specialization.

Yes this !

Since we literally enter steam and industrial age in this game, a flintlock or rifle would make total sense. I mean you also have a chainsaw in it as a powerfull addition to the other wood cutting tools.

It would also allow for more professions and Items. (Explosive Specialist [Can create explosives for said rifles or TNT which can be used to blow holes in your mine shafts for better mining])

Traps for small animals yes, but firearms no.

The progression should not be towards traps and better guns. It should be towards farms. you start raising a bunch of cows and chickens and pigs and sheep that you cull off.

We plan both traps and animal husbandry.
