yes, because people always make way too small kitchen houses.

yes, but also make a glassles window version, where you can shoot arrows trough them, but not knife or war sword kill trough windows.
windows sould be made out of pine needles and round stones, no rope, no chiseled stone, to make them useful for something.

the people will make ptovate properties with windoes at the borders ,and food inside them, and just go on a killinf spree with stolen arrows.

It can already be carried right?

Well Dodge is talking about something Jason was discussing about letting us carry a sterile pad in the red cross apron. You know how a backpack holds a sword? It would work like that so it would be possible to carry a single sterile pad around hands free while keeping the thread or knife in your apron pocket.

Basically a nice QoL buff to make medics more useful instead of it being about getting a person to the right place at the right time.

If we make it crafting harder such that not everyone can make everything - might encourage trade but the learning curve might get steeper, that will make getting new player base even harder , which this game sorely needs

If we make it too easy, no trade will happen , like now - which I could argue isn't actually too easy - it's just that 90 percent of current players are veterans. Newbies will ask for stuff made in their favour, guaranteed

If we make the world more finite, more justified wars will happen, but we already see a good chunk of the players here are absolutely against any concept of war , though IMO war sword or no it will still happen if desperate enough, humans are ingenious - I think thief on chariots will become a thing - zoom in to iron pile while no one is watching, load em up and zip away

Currently, world is infinite and we have boredom wars

I think solving this is basically solving the Theory of Everything .

Or the crafting mechanic could be easier but at the same time more limited.

It makes no sense that a farmer can at the same time be smith, engineer, cook, tailor etc.

In real life these skills are learned in a lifetime and take practice to get right but you cant do everything, if your parents are farmer then you learn it at a young age then you decide what you want to do in life, but you will have already better knowledge of farming.

There is a reason we have specializations in real life and that's one of the reasons we trade.

It's not about some players being against war, this game simulates civilisations, war is part of human civilisation history, why did they happen?

Most of the time because of ressources or territory which equals ressources, so if they are infinite no war will happen, also having every village built being culled over and over again is not interesting, it's like a forced wipe every 2-3 days.

There is no long term goal or consequences in the game atm it's just a perpetual reset with no way to prevent it.

Give this man a cookie, he is holding the right tree. The game crafting mechanic is flawled, hence, tech design is not a thing but a short linear progression.

What if you actually had to master making certain tools (like make a full set of steel tools or make a number of them) to unlock the ability to craft a Newcomen Core. Holy molly, then it is actually quite important who gets to make those extra shovel and axe.

What about a restriction to harvest to those that actually planted a similar seed... Hey! farming not so cheap anymore is it?

What if you had to learn how to use a bow and arrow on a human by first humting every other animal. Hey, war archers become a real job now... (Also prevents griefing since you need to kill a seal, rabbit, mouflon, wolf, bison, turkey and bear just to start using the bow on people). 

I doesn´t make any sense that a 4 year old jumps out of fire, picks a bowl of berries and starts crafting an engine. None.

However, all this model requires smart design on the crafting and tech tree. As it stands in the game, crafting is limited exclusively by resources, wich is a ridiculous way to model civilization.

Any amount of content will not make trading a thing, same for wars with an actual reason.

If everyone can make everything then there is no reason to trade and if there is plenty of ressources in an infinite world that keeps resetting then there is no reasons for war.

It's good that Jason focuses on solving the deeper issues in the game, depending on what he does it could make the game really interesting especially late game which is currently very boring.

causalities of war will hurt your genetic score).

It is consistent. That gives you the genetic incentive to win the war.

That's fine and all until you realize that, oh gee I don't know, maybe you don't start a war in the first place and avoid any casualty at all?

The moment you kill people, parent and child for an act as simple as naming them a non troll name, is the moment you become a griefer.

Don't be a griefer. Sure Hope is an overly saccharine and cliche name. It's NOT a name given for malice or 'trololol' reasons but instead invokes joy and happiness in the name giver. Honestly I suppose that name being related to the last girl is in fact persistant OHOL lore we created in this world. For some it might be even sweet.
Don't ruin that for those people that enjoy it or are just a participating party in it by being scum griefers.

Amen brother (?sister)

It's just a name guys, get over it. Most shit troll names are not even valid for use.

Your actions define you, not your name.

I agree with you but I still think mass naming babies all the same (and specially those who aren´t yours) is griefing. Steve, Bob and Adolf aren´t bad names. But they are used to troll periodically. Even worst, naming all people the same protects griefers. Don´t be a troll. Trolls are griefers. Killers are not (neccesarily).

Me as a puny baby: say lol if someone dies or something bad happens to keep up morale of fellow players.

Me as a dumb child: Grab all the clothes you can find, ask fellow players for their clothes because you are better at the game than them. Don't do any yum stuff since it's a waste of time.

Me as a young adulter: Full rabbit fur clothing, ask for a knife so you can s̶t̶a̶b̶ make rubber wheels and put on your cart.

Rest of your life: Clean up base from skeletons, worms and shit people dump everywhere, collect resources and improve the town by building big rooms used for kitchens, smithing etc and roads.

Before dying: LEAVE TOWN SO NONE HAS TO CLEAN UP MY SHITTY BONES. Before that I give my clothes to a babby and say my farewell.

This is 95% of my lives, no joke

I know the title is rude but i cant care anymore, i may not be the most experienced player but i sure know that the community is a good part of all games.  I get it you can to make the game in your "vision" or what not but does that matter when no one wants your game?  The reviews have gone to mixed ever since the war sword and language updates.  And i stopped playing the game for a while because i was tired of being murdered all the time.  A few weeks go by and i look at the updates and discord to see whats up and then i see the limited lives update.  And i just give up all hope for the game like other people have said i dont want to pay 20$ for "lifetime server access" but i cant play because i got murdered as a baby (it happens to me alot).  And i hoped jason would at least TRY to incorporate some of the communities ideas. But nooooo only game devs have any idea whats going on!  Like seriously if your gonna flex do it in a.....i dont know less a*hole way? 

Anyways do your worst, i just wanted to rant haha.
