If there is no way to increase my armor carry capacity, please make that a thing.

[Jack]

I dunno if there is one of the skills that increases this which i just didn't notice yet but honest to god, If i got maxed out strengh or sprinting skill or maybe even both, i want to be able to have heave armor and NOT move around like a snail......please

the makeshift armour set gives you an carry weight buff.
-- increasing how much you can carry without being overencumbered.

nono i don't think you quite understood what i wrote. i do NOT mean carry capacity in general, what i said was ARMOR carry capacity. The indicator in the top left of your inventory. i have 0 problems with my general carry weight that is over 100 already and is completely fine

Don't say 'carry capacity' if you don't mean 'carry capacity' and instead mean 'set bonus that makes you move faster'. In which case, no, wearing more armor weighs you down. You can either wear lighter armor or forgo armor entirely if you're just moving stuff around and avoiding combat.

First of all since in the inventory it is called ARMOR CARRY WEIGHT i will call it just that, if you don't like it then don't answer. And Secondly my friend this is called the Suggestions thread for a reason, to SUGGEST what they could add/improve

You would think that an increase in Strength would allow you to be less encumbered by armor.

That said, after loading up the FORGE set, and having Sprint leveled up some, it doesn't feel all that bad. Though it practically disables sprinting while wearing it, but that seems to track with how tanky you are.

I totally get what you mean and as a player I would like that as well, but I'm having a hard time trying to suggest a good way to balance that. If something did allow you to wear heavier armor less of a the decrease in movement speed, I'd feel it would require a surprising amount of re-balancing.

For right now, level up Sprint Skill. That seems to increase your base movement, even while not sprinting. You might want to wear lighter armor while just doing errands in low risk areas (sprinting whenever possible) and then wear something heavier for exploring new and dangerous places.

sprint levelling is also an bit bugged currently.
-- you'll only gain sprinting exp, so long as you're running exactly forwards.
( go even slightly diagonal, or run in any other direction, and the exp gain stops. ).
-- extremely noticeable while playing with an controller, as you can't even turn the camera without interrupting it.

Did you know that learning math is actually less about the math once you get passed basic stuff and more about teaching critical thinking skills?

Did you fail math in high school?

Yeah, I probably need to report that, again. I reported it twice already, in the 2nd Playtest and in the Demo. But I mostly noticed it while going up or down stairs. There is a short period where you don't get XP, but once it finally does, it starts counting. If it gets interrupted, then you have to wait again for the XP to start back up.

I've also noticed an issue with the FORGE armor and wearing the Hazmat suit (hitting max armor weight category) and trying to sprint. One, sprint barely works at all. And two, the XP game is so slow, as if it was distance dependent. Arguably that might not be a bug. Likely best to train Sprint while not covered in bulky armor.
