I would much prefer to have additional content (for winter, for example), or a purposeful change made to make an element of gameplay more interactive and enjoyable.

Rarely used combat bow... But Reloading kills its use even more. Please return as it was... Thanks for your attention. ☮️

@devs
Please consider further range combat tweaks:

Gear switch cooldown seems alright. Equiping/switching bow in combat works as one could expect.

Issue is each shot gives a cooldown that is too long, which makes range combat completely useless in some cases:
in PvE range attacks still makes things too easy when you target can be one-shot'd. And they're more or less useless if a target can withstand at least one hit.

Probably it is worth considering removing/decreasing shoot cooldown 2-5 times (e.g. make slings have fastest cooldown and so on). We already have pre-shot delay (timer between click is made and shot is executed). Having two delays feels quite wrong

I member.


This is true. The game is now a clusterfuck of features, rules and constraints. Keeping things simple is key, but Loftar and Jorb are not good at it. It is easy to make bloated clusterfuck. Revert the development branch back to 2015 back to its fundamentals when the game was in its simplest state and try to not fuck up this time bruhs.

i believe that cooldown after each shot is a bug

Not sure it was considered to benefit big groups, but wanted to say that I'm happy that game will now have some mechanic that benefits big villages.
We have ~10 people living on ~7 personal plots, so everyone who will build crop circles will buff other villagers.
Despite the fact that crop circle is band aid for bad band aid farming mechanic, I would say that more mechanics like that would be great!
