Farming:
My experience with it was the best one ever. Prior to the change I would use zero perks and have a chest super stacked full of food by day 30-35. I could make pretty much unlimited stews and forget about food.
With the change I found myself looking at a frugal little farm that sometimes felt like I had something going on, then all my seeds would die and I only had a couple of plants growing. I often found myself rummaging the cupboards for something I could make. It felt like I was a starving trade school student with limited resources/food and you make whatever you can scrounge up. And to me, that felt right in an apocalypse.
Late game I could make maybe 3-4 tacos, or 5 stews once. I made some sham chowder here and there. You make whatever you can cook up. I like to save a dish until I have at least 3-4 of them then that is my food I take with me for the day or a few days until it is gone. That way I only use one slot for food when I'm adventuring. ...

Dude, it's so much better than A19. 1000's of new building shapes, vehicle mods, new primitive pipe guns, massive balancing changes, zombies spawn, biome difficulty and improved loot/game stage in harder biomes. Cities have more zombies. I could go on and on about how you can just get lost in random gen now. I could tell you how immersive it is, but that is something you will just experience for yourself. I could argue about all kinds of things, but at the end of the day the build just feels amazing in ways that release notes can't describe.
Of course you would and so did everyone else years ago. Those vehicles are now trashed and gone, leaving you with roadside junk and stuff you build yourself.
In any event, it is a game and it is designed for fun, not realism. I can pick apart this or any other game, but I'd rather ignore the nonsense of, in this case, zombies and just play the games or watch the movies they are in.
Sure we do, if it is a major bug. It may not get released that same day, since it needs testing by others, but it would get worked on. Just like I saw performance issues today in downtown areas and debugged it and made some improvements. Needs more work, so I'll continue tomorrow, to hopefully go in a Sunday build to be ready for Monday.

Pretty sure your 980 will perform better than my entry-level card.

Yes! I edited the top post to make this more visible. Thank you for mentioning it.
Thanks they are now on my - dont watch list. So they wouldnt have been able to stream the game if you didnt lock out your paying customers?
Originally posted by Woodie_Macnutt: I'll comment first on this, i think its stupid that streamers get to play it first, we are all excited to start new worlds and play this update, they don't need a hype weekend to get excited. we already are and just want to enjoy what the funpimps made.
