But you only play this game for 8 hours in an entire year... How can you say you're enjoying any of the features? (especially angry midge swarms)

Being a developer and getting bitten by his own midges fills him with utter joy just daydreaming about the amount of people that get annoyed by this throughout the world duration.

:twisted: Beehives are still horseshit. I would like the hear from the devs, what exactly is your intent with bee larva. Should I be able to take cows before I secure bees? Because that's much easier.

What level of development do you expect players to be at before they can build a hive as opposed to scavenging? 80 unarmed and about 40 strength and agility didn't even seem close to clearing one

Currently the level of development is [One Friend]. Killing the bees fast enough is a pipe dream, and fighting 2 creatures at the same time is roughly 4-8 times harder. Bees and ants are especially bad because they attack blue and green at the same time, which squares (to the power of 2) their effectiveness.

I don't know about you guys, but after a few people mentioning how they were collecting larvae, it took me a week or so to gather up enough larvae. It was a pain in the ass, for sure, but I sure wasn't able to fight an aurochs yet.
