oh that's a good point, especially since the yew branches are preferable for kindling due to having fewer other uses.

As kindling? Because you can turn the into small shafts or whatever and then turn those into firewood. Makes more sense to carry a sharp stone than a hatchet if you're out looking for wood, in case you end up needing wild foods. Still, good to know for in camp, especially if I'm carrying a full bowl or something.

i believe the abandoned city i found was about 1.5 k SE of the big city i left and no one knew it was there. Unfortunately i wasnt able to make it a second time before getting too old, I did tell people the general direction and distance, because it had more iron than one horse cart could carry, and still had some made tools etc.

I don't believe the Eves are really that far spaced,  but I don't know for sure.

Pretty sure on another iron run I was unfortunately just following the spiral, but it's hard to tell what's an Eve vs a runaway and also if anyone ran there from another direction. It seemed as if I passed a few Eve camps.

Like i said though, it's not so uncommon to find an abandoned small camp, but that iron run was the only time I've found a legit ruin in a long time, that wasn't just like a nearby city my mom had fled or something.

I only starve as old if its a food crisis. Usually I pass on knowledge and encourage my descendants etc. Other times I'm tending berries or making pies till the last second.

For statistical purposes, deaths over 55 should count as old age.

Sudden infant death is a disconnect right?

Wait, what are animal deaths? that's a major form of death.

i loved that they added redheads, i'm from a ginger family

So way back in like, March or April of last year, there wasn't the "eve spiral", Eve's were spawned near the center of all manmade objects, and there wasn't decay yet, so there was just like this cluttered world of excess with no reason to do anything.

So if those videos are that old that's what you're seeing.

I have found a ruin on an iron expedition a while ago, that was a mostly decayed city with tons of wrought iron, and the baskets were broken but still there, which I believe means died like 7 hours before or something.  If you're out on a horse and cart and see signs of life far away from your city you can run around the area and maybe find a ruin, but the game isn't as such that you just come upon dead cities all the time anymore.

Also, note: this noob's question is about finding ruins, not "ermahgahd, I died in the cold, I want a refund!"

Like a few different new players I have played with since the update and helped to teach etc, this is a new player who is clearly playing and learning the game and enjoying it, post update.

I assume when he heard about this game his first thought wasn't "nice, i've always wanted to simulate standing in the desert naked"

I love One Hour One Life, but I'm 100% confident it's legal to charge people for server access to play shitty games, as long as the game works basically works. Check out the Google Play store sometime. Even so, OHOL has 94% positive reviews.

You raise kids in it and you build civilizations. There are an endless supply of lives where children lived to adulthood as well as an incredible amount of pictures of civilizations which have been built.

You realize that the sheer number of people who have died as adults presents a massive amount of data demonstrating it's possible to raise kids to adulthood.

I can't believe how ridiculous this claim is. It makes the people who constantly caused problems to demonstrate they needed to be fixed seem rational by comparison. [and actually, the previous ease of murder massively needed to be fixed, the people who mass murdered to force Jason's hand kind of had a point.]

"The Sims", the game "The Sims", obviously you knew my meaning.

LMAO, the "Misleading" advertising shows a person dropping dead and it saying "Don't forget to eat"

Well, game, set, and match, the update didn't make the advertising misleading.

I was born into a functioning village with like 15 people in one place since the update, and the village did great my whole 60 year life.

Talented kids can get an axe way before 41 kindling uses. I've made it there without clothing my children. My last Eve camp seriously had an axe within 35 years.

Rabbit hunting should be a major early task, crucial to survival, as is milkweed gathering. Make a basket, carry food, gather things. This is crucially important in early game.

I've been telling my wife, who hasn't played the game since April, about this ridiculous dispute [and she was never there for the "naked in the desert" meta] and her comment is, "It's a survival game, it isn't the Sims"

Exactly.

I run away quite a bit, but I also care more about the family lines surviving.

I usually make a point of only taking a bowl, often of stew. It is a massive advantage in getting started. Plates are a bit more important now, with the eggs, so that's also a decent thing to take. But, at the same time, once you get some basic agriculture going its pretty easy to make more plates and bowls

if there are some available i'll take a backpack. Its funny in one game i ran off with a pie and only took 2 bites of it in my life, and it was funny when i gave my backpack to my granddaughter I said, "take this, backpack, I've had this pie my whole life, i pass it on to you"

But, I've mostly been trying to make camps work, unless there is something I really don't like there. If a camp is overpopulated and there's nothing to do i'll run, but that hasn't been the case so much since the update.

Back before curses and the murder cooldown the murder problem was _really_ bad, and i kind of got in the habit of fleeing the violence of cities to live a peaceful life.

It's worth pointing out, when the official trailer video was made deserts didnt exist and temp worked close to how it does now, in terms of food consumption.

So, were your frivolous suit to even make it that far, nothing about the advertising of the game demonstrates that you can live naked in the desert. In fact, it shows the people wearing clothes.

And that's my bad not realizing hatchets break, i don't think they used to and was gone for like 6 months. I use the wiki instead of onetech and it didn't say. I've played like 20 hours since getting back and havn't seen a hatchet break, because you usually have an ax by gen 3, so this is not a major problem, it costs 4 damn milkweed to make, for 41 uses. You should have a steel axe by the time you've chopped wood 41 times. My last Eve camp had a steel ax well before I died and i don't even smith.
