Game discussion / Question about faction system
March 05, 2021, 02:16:11 PM
Hi,

I have looked around for information on this and couldn't find it, maybe just missed it, still, wanted to ask how hunting score and accumulated learning points, are calculated in factions. I am guessing hunting is each enemy we kill has a value, could "skinning" said animals also count or just killing them, then accumulated learning points is what I am struggling to figure out, thought could be learning points unused, then thought could be learning points unused after we completed all techs or total learning points earned and none appear to be correct so am wondering if can get some information on this,

Thanks.

Ideas and suggestions / Decontruct resource return
March 05, 2021, 02:10:44 PM
Hi,

I noticed that in a recently launched and with huge success, survival game, one of the "features" it had was a full return on all resources when any building, crafting station and so on is removed or even destroyed, while few complains about this it, in my opinion, it helped make game a lot more fun and accessible so I thought would ask if this was considered for Cryofall, player versus environment servers to have this "feature". I see reason in player versus player for return to be limited and for no return when destroyed but not so much for player versus environment.
I also wanted to ask for a while on why, when claim "timeout", are all storage and other "buildings" instantly removed along with claim and not have their own decay timer only start once claim is gone, like when we use crowbar to remove claim, so that others can build claim or loot resources before they are gone. I am sure there was reason, possibly for player versus player balance or some form of abuse, that it works this way, just asking if, for player versus environment,

Thanks.

Ideas and suggestions / Ready check
February 28, 2021, 10:38:19 AM
Hi,

If it is not complicated to implement a ready check, useful for queen and tyrant events for example, would help avoid leaving players out of a fight by mistake, for being afk or on the way or so, alternative could be a area chat channel for this events or a larger group, afk indication frames and or ready check. I ask since it is can very chaotic to organize battles with over four players, since players start to stand apart and then don't see local chat,

Thanks.

Ideas and suggestions / Big leave comeback?
February 06, 2021, 08:46:16 AM
Hi,

I am not sure if this was discussed in the past, if so apologies :P , but wondering, now that am having to gather fiber by hand, witch is slow, alternative with industrial chemicals is also slow, in my opinion, so never thought it replaced leaves, so wanted to ask, why was it was remove and if could be a returned 8) of the leave item, with possibility it had to be turned into large amounts of fiber. I ask this since first time around, or was it second, anyway a while ago, since am hoarder, ended with a crate load of leaves and when finally ::) found out could turn them into fiber, had so much fiber, from leaves, that lasted for the rest of time played, witch was nice ;D

Thanks.

Ideas and suggestions / "Boss" event timer
February 02, 2021, 10:06:28 PM
Hi,

I saw someone else mention this in game, credit goes to them ;) , though could be valid change to current queen and tyrant events, what if there was no de spawn timer :-X , if those two and future "boss" fight events, would spawn on a three hour timer but stay active until boss is killed, then start timer and so on, this could fix issues of spawns when number of players online is very low and not "force" players to rush to beat time limit, even if timer is long, if players come online late can happen. I can see it being harder to guess next spawn, but a system to hint, like kingdom game, where once destroyed enemy spawn gate slowly rebuild to have visual hint of progress until next spawn or maybe as simple as a timer visible to all online or could be some sort of astronomy hint, like moon phases or daylight light variation with possibility of a "hard" mode once in a long while or when boss stays alive for too long or during something like red moon, it would enraged ;D for added challenge, loot or achievement, anyway just some thoughts ::) .

Thanks.

Ideas and suggestions / Queen event
February 01, 2021, 06:36:50 PM
Hi ;D ,

I noticed something or think confirmed it this last try at queen event, damage done to beetles apparently, does not count towards reward calculation :-\ . I know this might be intentional, to avoid abuse, however, if so couldn't it reset every time players moved out of event area, so that players didn't build up damage by running in and out or maybe have some block mechanic to once started players either killed or were killed to open up area again. I did make note :-X of this since players "tanking" and those helping "tank" with beetles, "lose" to those that just focus on "boss", this rewards those that help less and should, in my opinion, be reviewed, since the "tank" and those playing in cooperative way allow for a more fun and easy experience for others, that in my opinion :P .

Thanks.

Ideas and suggestions / Map layers
February 01, 2021, 08:53:04 AM
Hi,

I noticed a few players mention this in chat and always found it inconvenient myself :o , having trading station spam on map, even early on after server reset, starts to condition using map. If possible to add a layer option to map to turn showing trading stations on and off 8) , maybe later add more layers like for claims for example, this way would be easier to actually see map, find open areas to settle in or plan movement to avoid areas completely blocked by claims :'( .

Thanks.

Ideas and suggestions / Chat channels
January 31, 2021, 10:59:47 PM
Hi,

If its not complicated, due to some system limitation or just not being urgent, could it be considered to add more default chat channels for multiple languages. I ask since I end up blocking half or more of server players for using non English in global chat :( , not that I don't understand some of it, just think it is rude and annoying since some players probably don't, some of the "spam" goes on for hours and in European servers can have a few different languages being used same time in one channel. I understand it would probably not "force" players to use other channels, however, could be a way to mitigate issue. If multiple channels is complicated, due to number of potential languages and the "ego" issue with picking some over others, even if order is kind of set in store in my opinion ;D , maybe a English only and a non English to start and see, from usage, if it justify the effort to add more.

Thanks.

Ideas and suggestions / Skills discovered
June 29, 2020, 04:32:39 AM
Hi, was looking at current system of skill discovery and was thinking it would be less troublesome :P, since it shows total number of skills "skills discovered 17/17" for example, if it would show skill progress of all 17 from start 8), just without name so we knew how far from unlocking each skill by showing all skills undiscovered progress at level 0 to 1 ???, that way we would find out what action is raising each new skill and not have to guess or more likely look it up on wiki page :'(.

Ideas and suggestions / In game block chat option
May 02, 2020, 02:25:02 PM
Hi, wanted to suggest or ask ::), if old block system, where when we blocked player and then unblock, chat messages from that player would come back, now we block and when unblock chat doesn't come back or show messages we might have missed. I could see how with new report option this could make for a lot of spam reports :o, if that's reason it is probably for the best, however, if it was not intentional, could it be considered reverting it so could be like it was before last patch, thanks 8).

Ideas and suggestions / Pragmium Queen event
April 21, 2020, 10:48:41 AM
Hi. wanted to suggest that pragmium queen event 8) be changed to make queen have more health, for a longer fight and do less damage, so less impossible to avoid deaths or more chance to have tactic in play and coordinate team work. I think event is fun but from what I saw in experimental server, true its more or less same ten players, should be lot more after launch, I hope ;D, players are getting bored and skipping it after only a couple of days, could be server wipe is main factor, but rewards are low and reason to do a 1m fight with up to 30m :o travel and gathering time is probably hard to sell for most, so if possible to rethinking its balance to make it a long fight with coordination needed to have success could be a way to boost interest of players in event, anyway just a suggestion :), thanks.

Ideas and suggestions / Event trigger
April 18, 2020, 07:06:49 PM
Hi, was only one online other day and "boss" event came up so wanted to ask if would be possible to add some triggers to events to avoid having issues like this happen. If "boss" event having a x number of players online to trigger and even other events triggers being influenced by number of players online would avoid either having impossible event come up, when to few players online or too many mining or hunting events that would be to "easy" when only a couple of players online, alternative could also be number of players could define total number of creatures or meteorites so that would still have events at any time just with different difficulty and or loot amount, anyway, just a suggestion, thanks.

Bug reports / Steam achievements
April 10, 2020, 08:25:07 PM
Hi, first not sure if bug forum applies to experimental servers if not just ignore :-X or delete post, anyway, I unlocked a few achievements on steam, then noticed that hunter achievement did no unlock even after had completed all objectives in game, there was a extra animal while ago that showed a second wolf that could been a bug? Also will the achievements reset once experimental servers are taken down, this happen in games like unturned and was very annoying  >:( even if understandable  ::) , think I saw other games had two sets of achievements to go with main and test branch of game or even games that keep achievements after test is done.

Bug reports / Free for all building
April 01, 2020, 04:01:33 PM
Hi, I am not sure if anyone posted about this before, but had some one build walls that were just frame and not finished, all around claim, this without having access listed for that claim, server Europe 3 PVE, can I report whoever it was for harassment? :P it will take a good while to remove now that its finished and so intention, am guessing, was to raise build skill by abusing, what I can imagine is a game bug? and can this be changed or fixed as there is no reason players should be able to do anything inside others claims in PVE servers without access granted to them, thanks.
