a multiplayer game of parenting and civilization building

I love mine, but you forgot to make me blush >:3
The main Discord isn't actually all bad. Most of the people there make fun of the griefers, but even there when people report griefers or killers it goes unheard. It'd be unlikely people would be paying attention while playing.
I'm down to join whatever group tho. I pretty much know who is trusted on Discord and who isn't
I heard a tale of a secret forum club that has hand chosen people in it. They post ideas for the game there and Jason listens to them.
That's probably where he's bunkered down in for the past few weeks while we go ignored and unheard.
KILLING UNARMED PEOPLE IS FUN
I AM THE BEST AT VIDEO GAMES
I have been taking a break. I played ONE life this week on bigserver2 and this is what happened
Shoutout to @Zivisziv#8115 for being the most pro gamer ever
Yeah I feel the same way. I loved this game so much before it became nothing but another raiding game. It was so wholesome and cute. I'd raise my kids and help push my family further into the tech tree and try to make them the best town possible. It was just cute.
Now I get born to a town cramped in fences, everyone is paranoid and talking about a raids and war. You get stabbed for just having a different last name. You make things for the benefit of your family and it gets hidden behind trees. You have to always be watching people to make sure they're not trying to take things. You can't trust your own family when they say they need help outside of town, you'll just be stabbed and won't be able to tell anyone. It really breaks my heart to see the state this game is in.
What's worse is that new players coming in are thinking this is normal. They think raiding and killing is what the game is about and the tech tree and survival of your family doesn't matter. It's so frustrating because in the end they're all going to win. Good players like you and me are leaving everyday and the griefers and the raiders stay. Watching a game I loved so much and put hundreds of hours into die slowly like this is breaking my heart.
And you're so right about the Discord. It's full of griefer bragging people who come to "flex" their awesome skills of shift clicking unarmed people. It's pathetic and I wish the mods could do something about it.
I still have a small sliver of hope it's going to get better. I really hope Jason will see what's going on and can deal with it. A handful of people are ruining this game for everyone else and he's going to wish he'd done something someday.
Probably wait for the curse system to be tweaked a bit. There's hardly a punishment for griefing.
It's reseting the world every day too. So it's really really up to you to decide if you wanna play in this shit
Griefing has only gone down because there's not much of a point to it. The map resets pretty often so any new griefing they do won't be able to add up.
I am very non-griefer and I use zoom out mods. Hetuw especially. I'm probably on of the last good players that returns stuff people hide behind trees and bear caves.
Neato, now never play again so you don't lose it
Imagine /dieing to become an Eve just so you can shoot your children and THEN complaining that the arrows are disappearing when they /die.
You need a hobby my dude. You don't have to be this way
Fucking clown.
All wholesome moments in the game nowadays are always drowned out by the griefers in the end.
It's really depressing.
I agree and I also disagree strongly.
Making a fence for your town is a NIGHTMARE. You ever wonder why so many fences are so janky and ugly it's because some poor grandson of Eve just wanted to protect his Mom without devouring every piece of food inside the rift to do it.
WHY THE FUCK ARE SWAMP TREES HUNGRY WORK????
They're absolutely WORTHLESS. They actually do nothing. At least pine trees have SOME purpose.
Just make it so all the good trees and hungry work and the useless shit trees aren't and it's FINE. I'm just tired of starving out my village to CUT 3 TREES DOWN
Once it's down to two families everyone just goes into pure slaughter mode. They just want to reset the rift because they're BORED of the same old towns, BORED of the same families. "Might as well make it reset now so I can actually play again". That's exactly how everyone thinks when it comes down to the end. Why play when it'll reset soon? Let's just kill one family out already.
I just played a life in the German family and all my kids wanted to do was kill our own family so the arc will end. I had to kill 2 of them because they tried killing us first. It's so goddamn frustrating and a complete toxic mindset. I JUST WANT TO PLAY. I DON'T WANT TO FIGHT. I don't want to have to kill my own kids because they don't want to play in this arc anymore.
This end condition is TOXIC. It's not fun at ALL to play in the last few hours of an arc because it's impossible to just "play".
The Rift resetting every single day is a HORRIBLE thing too. Nothing matters. No one cares about anything. It's all going to be reset anyways. The rift itself is just so flawed I don't understand how you don't see it. People just get BORED. Same towns, same family, same roads. Boring boring boring. So people kill to spice shit up. It's fucking the worst.
We need a new end condition at the VERY least. I have no idea what would work. I just know this one is the worse than all the other ones.
Please account for the fact that at least 1/3 of your player base will kill everyone to reset the arc just because they can, and not because they lack anything.
Day 2 Of Drawing! A bunch of us came together to draw again.
Here's the link again: https://www.anondraw.com/collab#private_c8tcs,7797,5307 Lots of drawings are there now, I didn't post some of the new ones again. Check it out and draw too!
This picture was all @Aloe on discord
Eve's nightmare, Lots of us worked on this
Escaping the rift colorized 1740 done by @Schlmoo on Discord
The Marriage of Jayden Halcom and Markail Halcom
An Overview of the Sheep Drawing. Lots of us worked on it so it's huge
Close up of the Queen and Forge so you can read it
Close up of the sheep pen
Tarr's Monument. Lots of us worked on this too
Again a super fun drawing session!
SO Anon draw is a program where multiple people can come in and draw together. It was super fun and really funny so I wanted to post the beautiful work on the forums.
https://www.anondraw.com/collab#private … -5766,1602 That is the link to it
Feel free to scroll around in it. I didn't include all the drawings so check them out!
It was super fun, I hope we do it again!
It's a super cool idea. It would 100% cause the Tarr monument to be protected and fought over, which is maybe what he wants? Something for us to want enough to actually war over.
The biggest thing would be who gets to eat it? I think the best situation for it would be the last female turning 40. Even if gave them an extra year for a chance for a girl that'd be huge.
For what to sacrifice I'd say an Endstone. A life for a longer life. They're very finite and rare within the rift aswell so using one would be a sacrifice
I see pork I immediately go hide it behind trees outside the town. I fucking hate pork clogging up kitchens so much.
I agree instead of adding new food with new items let us use the items already in more efficiently
Yeah between building an engine or oil I always pick an engine. The bucket charcoal game is just annoying. Making pipes can be it's own nightmare too. It takes so fucking long and without help you only get like 5 or 6. Plus oil is always in the worst places like the snow or desert and It's such a pain to not starve.
That looks like an LSD fever dream. I like your style MUCH more.
That's where our playstyles differ. I play the game to help my family and see them do well. I like solving problems. I'm just kind of tired of it ALWAYS being engines and oil. Everyone will learn everything else but refuse to learn engines and oil.
I agree with Lava. It gets boring building ANOTHER engine ANOTHER oil pump.
New content keeps people coming back to try it out.
A better tutorial. A full and complete tutorial for the game that includes everything from farming to oil and engines.
The amount of people who have no idea what they are doing is kind of shocking. It's very rare I get help with an engine or oil. People just survive until a smart player comes along and helps them.
I'm tired of it being me. It's always me making the engines and oil. They ask me to teach them but it's just Impossible. You can't teach an engine in one life time. I had to go on a low population server and teach myself where I made a TON of mistakes and it took me hours and hours to memorize.
Not even just engines though. Teaching baking and farming is something I just am tired of doing. They're so important and the tutorial doesn't do shit to teach them.
