Beware of bats!

[Amanda44]

I do agree though that the bats need to be nerfed, their current form is too OP and unfair on those unexpecting of the danger. I just find it bizarre that so many are actually dying from them... what are they doing? Wandering through deep caves? I learnt right away not to mess with them too much. I guess those who already had low HHP didn't stand a chance unfortunately.

And then add to that being a brand new player which we will all probably be again at some point, lol, not really a very well thought out update .... but bats are cool, just need to be sorted out a bit, APXEOLOG had a good solution in one of the threads.

Apparently he wants a system where there's stronger bats in some areas, weaker bats in other areas. Which would be nice, but then if the weak bats are barely a threat to the well-equipped guys then it would presumably be a super-easy way to farm hides. Kinda difficult to implement new animals into this game without messing up the value of certain items...

super-easy way to farm hides

Lol hides from bats?

^^ I don't see the difference between that and nerfing them tbh ..... the difference comes into play with having different tier bats to affect stronger players ....

Anyway, as we are talking about it I ought to link it .....

Hmm I totally agree. Just logged into this blocking my only exit



6 or 7 bats.

Not really a solution, but at least something to avoid complications.... I've been doing it for bears/boars - but now for badgers and bats too...

I brought an alt (from the same account) to the place I usually log... naked, no LP, just some random alt I log before logging my main... to check if the coast is clear




-- I just realized that all the things that randomly kill us start with a 'B'. Boars, Bears, Badgers, Bats...

Can bats cross hills? With them flying and all.

Logged on earlier to discover I was under attack from a bat, I just escaped before I got KO'd. Either there is another one spawned or it is still there hours later. My suggestion would be that carrying a flaming torch or being near a fire will repel little bats but deep in caves you might come across big bats which will attack you regardless (much like current bats). IDK if bats give hides but the simple balance to making bats weaker would be to not get hides from them, just some bat meat.

Developers seems like laughing from players while adding such things that making their life hard. They know that lots of players living in caves and added this things while most of those who live there are noobs and dont have good equipment to protect themself from bats.

I dont know how devs making such decisions but it only killing players desire to play. Today 2 of my friends died in cave when they logged and stopped playing (they were going to pay and continue playing, but now dont know if they will continue playing) since death in this game means a lot and it makes players piss when those death wasnt by their fault.

My team is living in cave and now there 2-3 bats on entrance and we cant use our items.


Nice job!

Noobs don't abuse hf's to claim caves

Kill 3 bats. Go in cave after 5 minute and see 5 bats.
