Why has the terrain east of the safe house, Stora Drybo (Farmlands) change? The whole hillside by the barn and all the way to the huge crater in Dyrboslatten is different. Why has this been changed? Just seems so weird after playing it 3 years.
What is different?
Do you mean the devastation around the Crater that was created by a small tactical nuke?
No. The hills were changed. Big boulders were changed. The hill to the north of the crater did not run down to the crater before
Because of the random distribution of the devastation, it’s, at least for me, hard to remember if, and how, something changed. But I do know that over time some of the large boulders all over the island were changed into more structured shapes. As for the reason the dev’s did that, we can only guess. It might have been just topographic revamping, improving the looks of the game world.
I can’t remember when exactly, but after a certain update I noticed trees had been strategically moved and/or new ones had appeared. Like for instance in Garphammar : in the south of the town on the same latitide as the Soviet tent there’s a house I like to use as a sniper’s nest. From the first floor you had a perfect view on the gas station and the houses around it. Apparently devs thought that was a bit too easy and suddenly view on the town was obscured by new extra trees. Unless the game thinks for itself and decided to grow some more trees.
There’s more of my favourite hide outs around which surroundings changed to complicate things, it seems. I can’t give you names now. I don’t remember them. When I open the map I know where to go.
I start playing about 2022~>2023 untill i hav a little muscle-ache problem with my right palm, n halted, then just came back almost 1 month before final showdown update. I can’t tell detail of terrain’s changes, but i definitely found some existing buildings disappeared, n a few more spot which you can see it’s different on world map but now left only a barren land.
As for trees n snipings, tbh, i use pvg90 a lots in the old days. but now, due to scope bugs n hit box trouble, my top long range weapon is m/49.
