XD their "own" town is a hell hole of clutter. Nothing done. Shame on you all.

Ye deffo was yum chaining. Even bowl trick with berries helps a lot(eat one from bowl). Occasional hardcore berry munch to full hunger from a bush. Surviving doesnt take much, but famine strikes guick if you neglect the berries. Spam too much sheep food for clothes and dont make any soil-->huge time cap till more soil transforms-->languishing berry bushes for ages...

The bowl chain was so freaking good XD.

Well english aint my native. My own language is much more blunt, straight forwards and plain, with little nyances. Maybe thats  part of the reason why its losing these "irrelgular verbs" so fast as its spoken/written by people who dont speak it by native. So everything irregular just drops off.  Ain't a spelling contestant, but still can prolly spell better than most muricans.

Not saying its rift fault that the berries got neglected, but somehow this seems to be more common than the fields actually blooming.

Also i have almost 800 hours in this game and if the life is that hard for me you can imagine what it is for people who arent that experienced.

Guess the berry fields of doom is mainly cause people run out of water and most people cant take a bucket out of town and fill it from pond. Also thing that i noticed is that we have so freaking many bears that it would be sweet if there was some other way around them too. Like lets say bear traps. You could put those on the town entrances. Would make bear grieffing harder, also new ways to kill bears would encourage people to venture off and kill wild roaming bears for their skin.

Having arrows to kill the constant bear attacks also comes with the downside that the arrows are easily used on people too.

Also new ways to transport water would help a lot too. Like lets say you could make a huge water skin backbag out of leather, which would hold one bucketfull of water. This would encourage people to haul more water to the town from outskirts and that way prevent the withering that tends to happen.

So basically i took as my objective to live 3 lifes(bb starwation doesn't count) and try my best to make the village prosper and take the rift experience open hearted with no grit. I won't take part in any war or that kinda shenannigans, just passive dalai lama lifestyle trying to make good things hapen for the society. This is what happened.

First life.

Was born outside of village to a mom munching bananas. She took me back to the town. People were spamming sad faces and literally everything was in scrambles, the fire wore out, the town was out of water, every berry bush, pie and all edible you can think of had been eaten out.

There was some light at the end of the tunnel tho, the town had a diesel engine ready to set go as soon as there were oil and the town was fenced out with property fence. So as my first action i had to run out of town fast and get some food, luckily the property fence was open as people didn't pass on the ownership. I found a berry bush just in time to not starve, found few more berries near swamp area. So now that i had found water and a source of food i would deliver all those goodies back to town. Went to town, grabbed bowl and headed back to berrybushes got some food next to ponds. Went back to town and grabbed empty bucket.  Filled the bucket and tryed to get back to town, but the fence was closed and i could not get in. My sis came to the gate aswell with berries in bowl. Now we both were fenced out of the town with water and food, literally what the town needed desperately. In time a lady let us in and i rushed to the languishing berries and watered them, back to pond and a new bucket. Hauled that to the "bakery" and made dozens of pies.

Now that the most critical point was secured i could breathe. Saw there was all stew ingredients ready to be made and made a pot of stew. By that time some people had broken the property fence some how. Well i couldn't care less as long as i can get out of town and haul some goodies in. Hauled many baskets of soil back to town and some skewers, tilled some soil and planted carrots wheat and some milkweed.

Then group of foreigners rushed to town and started to swing their swords, i only knew location of one bow and shot one invader, but as you get slowed with the bow hit the other people with swords got me before i could hide behind a tree and continue my revenge spree.

TLDR Borned to town with no food or water, made food and got water and resourses--->murdering foreigners killed everyone cause people broke the fence somehow.




Second life

Borned into a village that had everything ready for starting to boom big. Sheep pen, berry field, bakery, the forge and foods. Everything was set to go.

As a first task i breeded some more sheeps out of wild berries. Found a knife and made sheeps skins for all the towns people as we already had medical supplies. Now the girls wouldn't have to run dem tiddies open.  Got some mutton made on the go also. Then a fully clothed man with a pie in a backbag came to the pen and died infront of me out of starvation. Well thanks for the bag i guess. Pie was handy too.

Roamed the nearby surroundings. Catched some bunnies, found a lazy backbag makers den (five skinned rabbits and a twopieces of cut rabbit fur) and hauled that to town. There were lots of bunnies in the town and i lit a fire and cooked some with a lady. Made few omelets also on the go. Made few pies and cooked a turkey. Well everything seemed good now. Smith was working and someone was already building up a property fence to protect us.

There was a free cart laying around so i thought id get some baskets and clay for the town as it seemed we lacked some good old pottery. Hauled some wheat to the village as i was making the baskets. Then headed south out of the town. There were 2 bears on the loose. The first ones didnt get me and i continued my way to find a some clay and munched some bananas on the road. Then out of a sudden another freaking bear and this time it got me. RIP. Shame i didnt get in time to the town to tell about the cart.

TLDR made some sheepskins for dem ladies and headed out of town to scavenge, died to bears

Third life.

Borned to the family line that killed me at my first birth. Well no grit so im just gonna work my ass off. As usual as a kiddo i munched some berries and checked out the outlay of the city. Everything seemed good, berreis were doing nice and dem bautiful ladies were baking sweet sweet pies and cooking stew/broth. Went to say "wasup" to the smith and asked if he needs anything. Well iron of course and rubber. Iron is gonna only happen by accident when you roam out of the town and encounter it and rubber didn't feel doable at the moment as i didnt have a knife and the town needed desperately more buckets.

Well again a man dies infront of me in full gear, sweet thanks i guess. I think to myself that the town needs more buckets to ever make that rubber happen. So i decide to roam into the wildernes. Armed with the good old sharpie i start to venture forwards. The landscape is filled with bears. Its freaking dangerous to roam out there. Now that i know better i would prefer a cart with bearkill kit when roaming, but that was not doable at the moment and i was too little anyways to do any of that cart stuff. So i roam the landscape. No milkweed in sight. Then all of a sudden i encounter a small temporary camp.

Theres another man from my family line there too and he has begun to farm milkweed. I decide to tag along and help him on his task as roaming the lands didnt seem to profit any rope for the incoming bondage parties.  So we haul tons of soil and tag team water with bowls and make a huuuge milkweed field. I make some pottery on the go and eat some shroomies. We let all the milkweed grow up and  hang in the rare miracle of milkweed field. We both are getting super old now and decide we must venture back to the town with all dem sweet ropes. All dem ladys gonna go crazy over the bondage parties we can have now!

So we get back to the town and meanwhile we been farming tons of rope the town has cycled into the withering berryfields of doom. No one is taking care of the berries, making any pies and everything has been eaten. So there we both stand as old dudes in middle of huge amounts of rope and starve to death.

This life was actually pretty sweet and i liked it, but THE RIFT delivers at the end with its missery, depression and purposlessnes.

TLDR Made ton of milkweed, came back to town and starwed

For brieff glimpses life was actually sweet, but all in all the rift makes you wonder if you could do something else with that rope and a sturdy treebranch.

Maybe make different difficulty servers, make em easier to pick than ultimate matrix level server typing, label them correctly and so on. Like some could be more casual berry muncher heavens and some the rift...

#257 Re: Main Forum » Feedback Regarding Trading » 2019-07-31 17:24:32

Yes maybe so, but the ones who dictate who gets to go and who stay should be the 99% not the 1%. Can deffo stand behind putting bad people into the donkey town. It just needs to be the majority to make the decision not one person.

#258 Re: Main Forum » Huge Flaws that need to be fixed » 2019-07-31 17:20:34

Dont need to remove the rift, just make it much bigger, so its effects arent so hard hitting.

#259 Re: Main Forum » What was your first post on OHOL? » 2019-07-31 15:02:32

"This anti-spider god is super cringy facepalm for me. It doesnt have anything to do with ingame things. Just a cheap copy of carotism, berrybushism, cactiteism and pielover society. Please dont invent things off game and stick to something "real". There´s plenty of things to build a religion up from that are actually in the game.

All hail the snake god. Sacrifice your first born to snake.(this can be applyed to bears and wolfs too but needs some skill to commit)"

I still facepalm for roleplayers trying to force their BAD roleplay on others XD

My 2nd post is more like i actually am


"So our fine generations of carrot farmers and cactite lovers are none able to speak out numerals. I suggest we should adopt the roman way of numerals as in there is not enough ingame time(you die of hunger if you try to say 10245) to spell out the western option.

If people adopt this policy then it will in time come a new standard and easily readable. Also people get to learn something of our history.

Just for you reminder...

I = 1
II = 2
III = 3
IV = 4
V = 5

C = 100

D = 500"

#260 Re: Main Forum » WAAAAY to many bears » 2019-07-31 14:29:59

The problem is not with bear caves, its the problem of people triggering them.

#261 Re: Main Forum » Use your poll system Please » 2019-07-31 14:23:14

Major problem with rift is that people dislike it so much that they rather grieff than live in it. You dont really even get a true feedback from the runs now as grieffing is so common. Also many of the experienced players have given up and on a break, so working towards blossoming town is twice as hard, especially when some of them have turned into grieffing. So actually you lost some good players from your side and are now playing against them and you are left to take care of the 20 berry munchers and fire side roleplayers.

lmao are people actually trying to justify communism wtf

You must be MURICAN, to not have a single clue on benefits of communism. You are brainwashed to think that its the purest form of evil not even knowing the whole ideology. Its always demonized by WW2/china and other lousy attempts at it...

Yes its a double edged sword and can be missused easily. Its more like an utopia of what mankind can achieve when they work together and share everything. As an ideology its really something to work towards to. Major problem with it is human greed. So far in every attempt, there has been some kind of leader figure that hoardes everything to himself and executes all who are against him. That really stands against the whole point of the communism and is actually totalitarism/fascism .

If it could be implemented the way its expressed by Marx it would actually benefit the whole world, but as long as we have materialistic selfcentered people, they always gonna ruin it. Main problem with communism is grieffing.

Mao was just super good at grieffing and no one got him to answer for his deeds. All hail the grieff god.

#264 Re: Main Forum » Trade possible? » 2019-07-31 13:18:19

Why would you ever trade? When resources are scarse you hold on tight to what you got and try to get more by anymeans nessecary, at this point trading isnt even an option. For trading to happen both parties need to produce excessive ammounts of hard to make objects that serve no value for them as they are produced in so high numbers, but will be useful tool of trade for some other hard to make objects.

I can only see few items that are so hard/tedious to make at the moment:
-diesel engine(cars, planes, pump)
-radio
-pork tacos
-dyed clothes.

Objects of medium value:
-Rope
-Iron ingot
-Horse carts, carts, horses

The rift would be a nice thing if it would only trigger from pulling off succesful apocalypse. So instead of everything wiped off, we would get huge rifts spawning and grid locking people. Then the mayhem begins and eventually full wipe. Right now living in rift is like living in post apocalyptic world. Everything is in ruins, you lack basic means of survival and people have gone mental.

#266 Re: Main Forum » The game is not fun right now. » 2019-07-30 21:43:51

XD, Probably, so. Dunno since i dropped my game hours a lot cause the current state is just too much work and just escaping the current state to the outside world doesnt feel right. I've always enjoyed the resets, when they are not too often. Building up from scratch is one of the best parts.

#267 Re: Main Forum » The game is not fun right now. » 2019-07-30 21:32:36

Yes i get that you are working on it. Thats why i try to give some feedback. Maybe it always doesnt hit the point and goess over the top like everything in life.

The thing is that by making it harder you actually make it too hardcore grind for experienced players. Usually in village a good player support like 10 or more people. By tweaking the stats the burden on the more capable players reaches its cap where its not even fun to provide for the people, just insane labour trying to keep everyone aliwe and still see them die an wither. Theres a thin line when providing prosperity transforms into slave labour.

#269 Re: Main Forum » The real problem with the game right now is not what you might think » 2019-07-30 19:46:28

Maybe you can adjust the resourse drops in some way, so they spawn in some kinda clusters and that way would be far from each other. That map just looks so good. I can imagine you could actually learn your way trough the surroundins as in now its just big plain areas and you just follow the edges to even have some clue of your surroundings. Actually you are moving between biome lines (atleast thats how i travel) even now cause the midle parts of the biomes are unrecodnizeable and you get easily lost without homemark.

#270 Re: Main Forum » The game is not fun right now. » 2019-07-30 19:37:25

Yap i found the current state unejoyable too. You have to work twice as hard than before to make village prosper. Thats a huge burden on more experienced players. Also found myself just going nuts and grieffing stuff after a while of trying to actually benefit the society. Its like "well f*** this, this aint never gonna work". You dont see any progress, everything is in scrambles, you are surrounded with munchers that cant support themselfs. People are forging knifes and making arrows cause theres so much grieffers around instead of making tools or advanced water tech.

So instead of playing and going mental i just choose not to and take a peak once in a while. Actually had a really nice life yesterday outside the rift.
