One Hour One Life Forums

71 players sticking trough chaos that proves the game has a strong and dedicated player base.

filling too many plates witrh turkeys, sure its a population boom, but that attracts raiderrs, and that kills the city,as their steel production lacks plates.

flooding a family with knifes or arrows. not a thin anbymore in barrle royale mode, but with great power comes great irresponsibility and a lot more murder.

killing someone much younger, and overwriting anything he says with "its okay he wanted to die"

No I played on the 500x500, long before the berries were staked and the milkweed was used up, I made sets of clothing while people were running around. No one did anything but eat food and run in circles, meanwhile I was getting seals, rabbits and starting farms in the swamps.

You folks just love to complain every time Jason does something, no matter what it is, and you don't even keep your mouths shut long enough to consider why he does it, or, better yet, how we can get through it.

You didn't plan for anything positive, all you talked about, like all you ever fucking talk about, is griefers.
Your go to excuse for all the shit you've done in this game to other players.

"I killed 90 people with sorts because griefers would have done worse."
"Someone called me a bad name, therefore they are a griefer."
This is griefing, that is griefing.
Why don't you people just shut, the fuck up, and play the game.
You have absolutely no fucking clue how good this game would be, if you all, ALL OF YOU, just shut up and played.

Just do the right thing. Just play.
I know exactly where I was, when I was

I've been playing through this whole thing, trying to keep you guys alive.

I didn't panic, I didn't make fucking fences, I didn't try to warp over the rift, although, I was launched over it one life, in the south, and started a home down there, and had half a dozen kids, that were about useless because you guys don't teach people shit in this forum, all you do is whine about fucking griefers, so none one learned anything coming here to see what people are saying about the game, all they know is you're a bunch of butthurt fucking pansies who can't cope with challenges.

Look, stop ruining the game because some 12 year old is playing the way you don't like. You ALL do worse to this community by doing shit like killing people for points, and trying to justify murdering kids calling you names, they're just kids. You're ruining the game for the adults by getting everyone up in arms over every little thing you don't like. YOU are the problem, not the 12 year old that cuts down trees or plays with bears, you, because you can't do anything more productive as a community than complain about it.

You're all so fucking insecure, you can't see the fun anymore. I'm not seeing anything creative from anyone of you on this forum.
It's just fucking moaning, about Jason, and griefers, Jason and griefers, just shut the fuck up already about your problems. Have some good ideas for once, would you?

I know most of you are having a good time playing, or you wouldn't be here, so why aren't you sharing your good times?

And those of you who are, those of you still sharing your stories and good ideas, you are all I have to look forward to in this community. Everyone else that fucking whines and complains about challenges, can just fuck off. Getting people all scared, thinking the 500x500 was going to be a nightmare, planning for the worst, because that's all you think about.

We were all in that together. And we could have done a lot better. I was really looking forward to having another go at it, and seeing how much better we could do the second time around. It was a perfect opportunity for all those people who eat and stand around to learn the value of work, and I think a lot of them did, because come the 1kx1k I saw a lot more of them, bustin their asses to keep the food supply up, and that's exactly what we needed; a challenge. Us vs the elements. Yes, hundreds of wild berry bushes got staked in the 500x500, I saw them just as much as all of you, but I did the most I could with what was left by the end of it.

--

And they weren't all staked by the end of it, there were still several, scattered about...

--

I'm too tired to wrap this up with a more positive message. But I had a lot of fun last night. Especially in the 500x500, but I definitely saw a change in people's playstyles in my 2nd and 3rd lives of the 1k, when I was actually involved with the same town twice in a row, from two different families.

Overall I had a great time. Clubbed a hell of a lot of seals!
And I not only think all of you did some really nice work, when you were actually in the game, but that we could do a lot better. Whether it's 1k, .5 or .2, we will do better, everytime.

--

Sorry for losin my temper; that was rough, but a lot of fun.

Looking forward to it again when I wake up, and so should you.

Instead of having to add every single variation how about you allow some customization. Like a barber job that could add small things like a different beard or hair style.

Okay say you don’t pass it down. When you die, the gate devolves back down into an unapproved gate fence. Just needs hammering with a stone. Some kid aspiring to rekindle the slave trade can come along and hammer that, then there you go. The triangular trade is back in business.

Let's say you do as you're suggesting and never build a fence at all and some kid comes along, aspiring to rekindle the slave trade.

He makes some fences, waits the few minutes it takes for them to be ready while he prepares whatever else he needs, and then does his dirty deeds anyway, regardless of whether he had to make his own fence or not.

Exactly as I said in the post you've quoted; people who want to use them for nefarious purposes will do it whether you build the fence first or not. The point still stands that if you make your own steel tools or farms that you dont want people messing with, fences are what you should use. That's why they exist.

That's like saying you should never make a knife or bow because, somewhere along the line, little Billy is going to come along with the intent to kill the entire family and he might use the tool you made. Or, perhaps you should never put doors on buildings, because what if he makes a lock and locks people in??? God forbid an in-game tool (fences are a tool in this regard) see any use, right?

Maybe a.... barrier of some sort might help you?

Hm yeah, but the big ol’ problem that’s been raised many times is: how do you make sure the person you pass it down to isn’t going to use it as a trap/hoard?

One idea I can think of is using an adobe pillar failsafe in the corner. People must know how to remove it however. It also sort of removes the whole idea of enforcing personal property - if someone wanted to break into your property and take everything for the town because they’re commie scum, and don’t respect glorious capitalist ideals, they can.

You don't need to pass it down if you just use it for your own personal projects, once you die those are done. If somebody intends to use fences as a trap, they'll build their own anyway.

yet healing system requires skill, and preparation what people don't have

the bad thing when arguing with morons is that once you go down to their level they beat you cause they got more experience
i seen people who got healed then they shoot you cause they butthurt
there is a reason why people get shot, and there was a reason why people didnt
just because you are angry, doesn't mean you are right
that's why skill based combat is needed
if you are unskilled on everythign else, you are unskilled to decide who deserves to be killed or who not
you are unskilled to lead a town and you got no right to order people around

and as far as this game goes, all clothes, weapons go to females and 90% of people believe a female griefer over a male worker
mostly males are cursed and people troll males
if you remove the skill from killing you remove the justice too
this is also very dumb cause you cant even outrun a griefer, once you make a turn inside a building you are already dead
so even if you see it comign you are dead

and the biggest reason jason changed it cause he "tried it out" and couldnt stab others
in a world where every noofuck can kill you and you cant do anythign about it, every person who carries an open weapon or jokes about killing or any of that, needs to be dealt with but then a chain of noobfuckness goes around and a lot of people die

the biggest problem with you people is that you cant think logically
you only take the only example where you are the good guy and everyone else is bad guy
you are not a good guy, no one is
everyone is subjective
everyone will think they are the good guy
and this system doesn't favor good guys or bad guys, it favors attackers
the one who thinks about backstabbing others first

ofc you happy when they remove skill cause you don't have any skill
people who had zero chance and had to moderate themselves, now out flexing how good they are

statistically speaking, there are more unskilled killers now, and more kills too
and it became a legit meta to kill others for the heck of it
is it a good story? no
is it a good experience? i don't know what you enjoy about killing civilians who don't even know you are there
back in the days i gave you weapons just to prove that the skill gap is so big that i even let you attack first
you cant call this combat, that would mean that everyoen has weapon and they somewhat agree upon a fight, and they got somewhat equal chance of winning
with no hp or turns, this is the dumbest unbalanced thing i ever seen
checkers has more strategy to it

and i cant see it how in the world would mean that people will heal the useful players
useful players are invisible cause they work
i never really seen successful heals

when a city has pads, it runs out quite quick when a murder spree comes
if you pay attention on who gets healed, well lot of them wont worth wasting a pad

last time we dealt with a swordman, i was healed twice and i healed others 3x in a duration of 3 min with 7 people involved, with 1 casuality on our side

the big dog fucks the small, that is a simple "combat system"

im still thinking jason is too lazy and too stubborn to make a proper dueling system
i don't even see why the heck there is combat in this game, like he said you must kill the griefers to get rid of them, guess what, they kill you first cause they got more time to do so, if not they are dumb as fuck they ever say their intentions
now that comes to the point where are weapons need to be taken, but that makes you a target, if you don't have a weapon you are a target
so basically if you don't have a weapon then get one, and if you have one, use it, hard to justify all this bullshit in this "system" otherwise
he tried to make the game 2d rust with all the bad elements of that game, leaving out all the good ones

and don't use the word "chance", as long as you attack first you are guaranteed to kill
there is no rng involved at all, it's just intention

btw i could fid a reason why one should be killed or not, i can track multiple people on what they work on, what they looking for, just i generally don't want to get involved, same goes for kills, i just don't want to be part of it

same goes to supplies, when the game cant tell apart who made pads, and who fed sheep, so who owns them and who should use them, then is no skill involved on that either
a griefer wont make pads to save others, they hide what others made , which is why your logic doesn't work that way
people lack the skill of healing you so the more skill you got, the more clothes you got, just makes you a bigger target
no one evercares who got those supplies, they save everyone or they stab everyone involved
then they run out of pads and cant save anyone
and most people wont make pads again

don't know about you but i don't play this way, i could lock myself up and deny all the supplies i make but then that would be the problem
i just don't see how it's a good gameplay to prepare for something that might or might not happen and still get fucked over just as easy

btw i didn't used the tiny tree mod at first, cause it's weird
but then one gmae i was a kdi in storm town, got 3 arrows as a kid, and gave to adults to deal with the bears
some griefer who acted like normal in front of others, just hide it and did more bullshit when no one was looking
that was the first i put the mod on, and i found carts of stuff around that town
sure can be used both ways but dumb people are dumb outside the game too, and smart people don't actually need it that much, but it makes it more convenient, so yeah, if you lack the technical skill, you probably lack the ability of judging others too
and this unbreakable morality bullshit is boring
jason isn't perect, his vision isn't perfect, the balance is far from perfect
he made mosquitoes that small so people wont see them
i don't know whats up with his denial for zoom either
his choices arent based on anything, they arent popular or based on any balancing
these mods arent game breaking or unfair, they are free and you can use it as well
and i don't really see why arent part of the game
for example, like 90% of people will quit when the last female is dead
just because you don't know or don't see, wont make your game least shitty when you realize it
the zoom is quite needed to build any decent size structure which can sustain a population density that big

the bigger a sheep pen is, the less materials it uses for the tiles, 3x3 has one tile in center, 5x5 has 9, center tiles don't need walls, simplified
now you need a 7x7 to have an inner size of 5x5, you cant even see a normal shaped structure without zoom
and if you drop items on tiles to navigate, you cause others a whole lot of trouble to clean it up
and the fast roads for short distances are even more annoying
basically just because some people cant imagine how it's possible, or do themselves, they just throw shit around

one example is a description of a life Jason gave:
he made a fence and planted some milkweed, then her daughter did a new one
and he became jelous of her daughter and took her hoe
and was thinking about murdering her out of jelousy
now this maybe interesting once, but this is sooo slow paced bullshit
it's one htign to take it slower, to be slower, or forced to be slower

and he basically balanced the whole milkweed farmign around this
and the ropes are part of everything

on the other hand, he blanced iron, on shortest route between veins and he popped in to a few games and seen a few stacks of iron, so he nerfed it into the ground
same goes for water, he popped in at a time in a few families, and nerfed t accordingly
now the oil

so basically the tech tree top is nerfed, the bottom is made easier, you can basically make unlimited food easily if you know where and what
the water, the tools, the ol is hard af, thegathering of resources is hard

so basically there are 2 groups: those who talk and stay in a small place for a whole life
and those who grind and work all life
the first group depends on the second or dies
the second keeps the first alive out of pity/entertainment
now killing is part of the first category, requires zero skill

i don't know about you guys, but if you already see you got griefers, and you cant defeat them by skill
then basically you got a choice of wasting your time, get killed, quit or run after them like an idiot
and even if you kill them, you gotta deal with others who think "killling is bad" but ruining a whole city is ok
how is different of not being able to kill anyone? they win anyway if they ruin your plans
the number of griefers is higher than before and the people are more annoying ever since the change

Maybe a.... barrier of some sort might help you?

Then maybe you add some useful machine to the recipe line of the sword. Maybe you would need oil in quenching/hardening of the sword. They do use oil in making of swords. Actually it's necessary to make a viable sword. If you dont do this proses you kinda get one time use swords that bend on hit. Quenching with water makes it snap. So oil is really the only viable option to make a durable and flexible piece.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quenching

In materials science, quenching is the rapid cooling of a workpiece in water, oil or air to obtain certain material properties.

This way they would atleast benefit the community in someway if they are rushing the swords or the swords would be made after the town has acces to oil.
