Anarchosyn Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Just curious if the developers have said whether Reign of Giants would include anything related to the Adventure mode, or caves? I haven't been following all the posts as closely as I'd like, but additions to these modes (ok, the latter is just a biome) would be a delight. I bring up Adventure mode as I spend most of my time in there. However, "caves" I reference due to an off handed line of text I read that specified only above ground content for this DLC.

MycoLogical Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 That is a good question I think has been a little overlooked @JoeWAny weigh in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximum124 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 I'm also curious, I wouldn't think the biomes would be added, since the adventure mode worlds are generated differently then the main world is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuGonce Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Well, the adventure mode don't include caves as well so i think it's more likely that the adventure mode will stay how it is now. Also, not everyone will buy the DLC so the experiences on adventure mode could be different for those who bought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I swear I remember someone saying about having an underground camp in adventure mode at one point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anarchosyn Posted February 23, 2014 Author Share Posted February 23, 2014 I've never seen a cave in the Adventure mode, but I keep coming across sandbox-mode features I never expected to find (like touch stones). Perhaps they're out there, somewhere. Anyhoo, especially with the inclusion of the new biomes, it seems like a perfect opportunity to add a new mode or two to compete with Archipelago, Cold Reception and the rest.

I think also if you have caves off in the sandbox save the adventure mode on that save also doesn't have caves?? I dunno Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmaLee Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 I think also if you have caves off in the sandbox save the adventure mode on that save also doesn't have caves?? I dunnoWell, by the same reasoning that would mean having tallbirds, hounds and what have you off in your sandbox save would also translate to adventure mode, which isn't true. I think caves were just disabled for spawning all together in adventure mode. You can trust me, after playing nothing but adventure mode for months now, I can tell you there's never been an opportunity to visit the caves.

Plus they intentionally said they would only be working on the overworld for the DLC, so that leaves me to believe the optional side paths such as caves and adventure mode won't be touched.

XirmiX Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 I don't think anything in DLC will have anything added to the adventure mode (except the game's existing creatures, items etc. will most likely from the DLC) because when you finish the adventure mode you it puts up a poster after your character gets captured or whatever which says that there might be something more to the adventure mode someday, but I doubt it will be the DLC but rather the future updates that'll change the adventure mode forever. I'm thinking one day you'll be able to rescue Maxxwell's assistant, Charlie was it? I allways wonder if she and the night monster are called Charlie, is it that she got captured too and has something to do with all this or something? I mean even All's well that maxwell puzzle didn't explain what happened further... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeW Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 That's correct. The DLC will be focused only on the overworld. So the caves and adventure mode will not be changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Letter W Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 It would be neat if there was another chapter added into the shuffle if you had the DLC though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, not everyone will buy the DLC so the experiences on adventure mode could be different for those who bought. They wouldn't have to change adventure mode. They could add a separate adventure mode which consists of new worlds. But yeah, I agree that they shouldn't alter the current adventure mode. Of course, I realize sayin' this is kinda pointless, since they are not adding this in the DLC either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silentdarkness1 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 No adventure mode expansion? My interest in the DLC just tanked by 65%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anarchosyn Posted February 24, 2014 Author Share Posted February 24, 2014 Of course, I realize sayin' this is kinda pointless, since they are not adding this in the DLC either way. Not pointless. It helps illustrate the desire and demand. Even if they don't feed it with this DLC, perhaps it'll help highlight it as a priority in the future. Anyhoo, thanks one and all for chiming in. It's good to know I wasn't hallucinating the over-world emphasis of Reign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadpanQuinkan Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Could there even be a new/separate adventure mode? It would be very interesting, but I don't know where it would even go. Perhaps that's a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spinorex Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I don't remember where but i have seen somebody mentioning about nightmare mode, or some place (dimension) I believe this was during a live stream for one of the updates for Don't Starve. I don't quite remember which one, but all Kevin said was that he'd write a note down about it saying that it's a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
