No warning of crime penalty?

[Darwoth]

dont think anyone disagrees that things could be more intuitive for new players but unfotunately they are not.

you need to start thinking of this game as a giant toilet that all of us players are constantly circling the drain in trying to stay afloat, with that you will soon come to the realization that it exists solely for the developers to periodically come in and take a giant **** on all of us. then and only then you can begin to enjoy the game.


just make a new character an hour lost is nothing, you can be as far along in ten minutes now that you have your bearings, you will also probably die numerous times in the first few months of playing so get used to the idea now.

this is not a carebear type of game you do your own research
@DW oh god lawl thats entirely how it works

[DarkNacht]

Be careful, and research everything you do before you do it. If you think you're going to be able to just guess how things work in the game then its going to be extremely difficult and you will KO a lot and die often.

Honestly, it would just be a mess of annoying pop ups if we had the game warn us of all the things that could go wrong while we play the game.

The first time you find a snake there should be a big pop up in the middle of the screen:
WARNING!
The Timber Rattler is an aggressive creature that applies the Poisoned effect when it attacks.
When a character is poisoned, their Phlegm gradually drains until it inevitably reaches zero. When the Phlegm is completely drained, the character will be knocked out. The effects of poison can be cured by using Rattler Serum.

Oh, and while you where reading this it bit you and because you are new you probably can't get any Rattler Serum, so now your dead.

See i understand that this is a hardcore game at point with the perm death... But i mean, i'm not asking for someone to hold my hand, i'm simply asking that game tells me the mechanics it's using when it comes to things that i would never guess

Why would someone assume that u randomly get KO for breaking the law

*Hey no 1 can see me, no 1 is near me so lets take a shortcut* - Bam KO <--- How is that fun?

Leave the learning curve, it's fun but with things like magic KO from nowhere... just at least give a tip when it's 1st activated
===============
This is a legit post, it's kind of annoying and trying to keep my GF motivated to play it is hard.. i learnt from my mistake and i will improve on it but i just feel this is an important thing they should think about adding

Guess you do have a point here, but the thought, that someone would go as far as doing crimes without expecting some sort of system preventing that (look you even have to toggle crimes, that alone should ring a bell) is somewhat disturbing for me.
Well for better or worse you are aware of that mechanic now. Also, like mr. Darwoth said - it's borderline impossible to find a seasoned player who haven't died at least once.

[Viackura]

everything you say should be a pop up is explained on the status icons when you hold your mouse on it
that should be a pop up instead

Not to point out the obvious but I started out this game afraid to leave the buildings of Boston for fear of some of the things I'd read on the forums. But then I just read the guides in the help section.

Haven't had a single issue since.

Apart from a 25 humoured alt (if that's worth mentioning) I never died in Salem

Well I guess people have their opinions and well yeh... you had to active it but it was a lot easier walking through it than around it, I mean of course I don't mind, i'm doing quite well been alive since I posted this, just yano... my gf was rather annoyed that I walked like 30min to pass out

Look another thing is... I know that I enjoy this game and I had to convince my gf it had opportunity because she wanted to quit, for the sake of every person that wants to play with a friend... couldn't you make it easier for 2 people to start a place together? Right now it's basically impossible... me and my gf walked for like an hour to just give up on getting to the original place and making a new one where we were And i did try the guide but he said something about me not having something... which I believe is something You have to buy in the shop for a decent amount of money... So you can't just join this with a friend and have a good time, you have to go through a few hours of frustration before you can even start :l

Of Course I like the game and I don't mind the annoying parts because I see the potential in the game but I just... I don't get why it was made like that? it could be soo less annoying and still be just as fun for everyone?

I think I speak for everybody when I say that the quality of this thread would go up 300% if you would post a pic of your G/F's reaction to you KOing.
