Hey, I too have been having a blast wandering around fighting the machine overlords.I really like how oppressive the solitude is playing as a solo. Here are some of my thoughts:
Is the Island where you’re from? If so wouldn’t one of the homes be yours? I thought it would be neat if there was like a random house on the map that was yours and in it there was a high level version of whatever your most used weapon up to that point was. Unless this was just where you were visiting in which case, bad luck.
The acog sight should have similar aim movement speed as Iron sights and slightly more vision than it has now, but not full vision. When you are using CCO’s you don’t totally close your non-dominant eye. You leave it open to help you identify targets. I figured 30% increase from where it is now would be more natural.
If you are wearing a watch you should know what time it is.
World building through newspapers or magazines. I was a baby when the Berlin Wall fell, I don’t remember the tension. I am also an American and I feel like the cultural impact was pretty different. If you can maybe throw in old out of print, public domain newspaper clips in random homes that would really help.
Map names stay on map or regional map books in gas stations. As much as I love running around looking for convoys and crashed things; It really slows me down when the map names are removed when I quit out and go to sleep. Please leave the names, the gear and loot info can disappear, but please leave the names.
Maybe a walkman to play the tapes? But it would have to ruin your ability to hear/detect.
I would also love it if the boombox delay was like .5 seconds longer. It feels just too short for me to get away from it and I usually now throw them off cliffs.
I also think it’s a little strange the machines can hear me through the mountain inside the bunker. I’m not mad, more impressed.
I’ve seen it on here but I’d like to see more Ticks. In homes waiting to ambush people returning. Their hitbox and the runners melee hit box should be reduced slightly and the ticks shouldn’t explode if they can’t find you, they should run and hide somewhere or explode with gas. I got my kill a robot from 300m by running away from a tick I think.
If you read this far thank you, again im having a blast.
