Do you not think this is the sort of information that should be available to new players? I Have a large compound with metal working equipment, Plant pots with trees growing, Thousands in silver yet no information in how to remove a bat from your neck.

I tried stamping, other combat moves yet something as simple as Ctrl + click gets it off is nowhere in any information!

God Damn

The information is all over the forums. I believe there is a town crier telling you to read the forums.

Salem is a game with many surprises. There are MANY things still unknown and unlocked. Thats a large part of the fun with Salem. It won't hand you ALL the information.

Also if you have a mine and all the infrastructure to go with it then you are NOT a new player.

Yeah, that info isn't only for new players, it's on this forum just read the announcements if you don't want to get into the drama of the game

New players get to see this, an npc shouts it in the main town.

I'm 100% positive there are things we both know that the other doesn't along with everyone else. JC has said on multiple occasions that there are things not found yet.

Stop trolling help.

You're not new if you see bats. And have the stuff you just said. I know it's hard but what if you are killed and your base destroyed? Will you quit?

I doubt that's a question one would ask to a newb

What a retarded mechanic to put in.
Fine you get a chance to spawn some bats when you mine that can kill you, but letting the bats put you in a death loop with no warning that they are attacking you or anything that is just stupid

Personaly i had forgotten that they would latch onto your troat so i had to come to the forums to find out that this was the reason for my character being stuck in a deathloop.... lost all the stuff i had just spent hours collecting because of this stupid mechanic and alot of influence.

it is fine you are punished for dying but give a man a chance to find out what is killing him please....

You had many chances to read about it.

The graphical representation of a bat sticking out of your neck isn't enough? Combined with the fun fact that in your neck equipment slot is a foreign object? The inability of the player base to draw simple conclusions such as this simply means that I have been too generous in the Pre-Mining phases of the game. I fully expected players who lack the ability to derive this should have been killed off and quit long before they got to mining. I'll consider putting in a better filter for such a thing in the future.

I do think they have a point. Open up my character window is not the thing i'll do when i'm stuck in a deathloop with second in between.
