Game isn’t as good as it once was

[Kuriak]

Luckily when I got my butt took by a 'hat-or-die' fella, all he did was change my claim's name to n****r. Took me a good minute when I saw it a few days later to figure out how it got there.

I'm training in my hermit retreat, bench pressing and slurping down bear bangers, to some day get my revenge

I’m not trying to sound nostalgic, but back in the day, there was no protection for being knocked out—you’d definitely be killed, and even palisades could be destroyed. Bows dealt four times the damage they do now and could shoot through walls to hit targets. It was far more dangerous back then.

I have not died from PVP since world 7, everyone that's complaining about getting ganked, what are you doing that I'm not doing? What am I doing that you're not doing? Are you scouting the area before you decide to settle there? Day 1-2, you should be running around with a dugout looking for a nice spot with few neighbors, or friendly neighbors. Are you settled too close to a swamp? That fucks with curio spawning, it pisses people off, so you're likely to get targeted. Are you settling right on the coast, or on a river because you think it's convenient? That drastically increases the risk of you being seen, and targeted. Did you block off a mine entrance or natural resource? Targeted. Do you greet every single player you see, with reckless abandon? There's a 1/10 chance they want to kill you. If you want a community of friendly players to keep each other safe, look for one, don't expect every stranger to be friendly with you unless you're confident that you can beat them in a fight. Don't run circles around giant walled bases thinking they're a public hangout spot for friendly new players. Take a wide berth from absolutely any player that seems like they know what they're doing better than you do

I'm loving how some guys calling people sprucecaps without knowing them just because they don't agree.
Many big boyz like they like to call themselves are nothing more than hermit sprucecaps if left alone.
Even more, they certainly never done 1 FEP research by themselves and barely know how minesweeper is working.

Map isn’t big enough for the amount of players that play daily. Every corner there’s like a pvp group just ready to attack anyone. I get pvp is the game, but the fact that you can’t even walk without getting jumped is ridiculous. And now people can drop your claims from your inventory ? Like wtf? Seeing people going around shouting racist slurs , and having nazi symbols as a troll effect? Game just released on steam and already feel it won’t be on there long with players destroying it for laughs and giggles . Some people can’t even play the game to enjoy it and actually have fun , without those who play 25/7 coming to troll

So the game haven't changed since W1? Good

This.... when I first started playing in W7 i got a boar aggro'd on me day 1 and lost my character. After i got my first palisade up, someone bashed it and I had to move... I died like a dozens times learning the old game... I haven't died since like... w9 now because the game does a good job keeping people safe. No idea why people who aren't no life basement rats want a return to past.
