qwertyxavier904 Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 I suggest that character should have a quote whenever a item/structure is currently smoldering or burning during Summer. Why should we add this? Well.... currently they say NOTHING to warn the player that something is burning/smoldering currently in their area, and there is only a audio cue that smolder has that is hard to hear with stuff possibly going on in an area. (Fire you can really hear, but at that point its too late.) Adding this will really help hearing impaired players also! They will at least have a visual cue that can help them through wildfires trying to burn their base down if this is added. So, who's with me? Who wants to add this little change, that can improve the quality of the game? ( I would like to also hear suggestions to add on to this!!!!)- Voidwalking Hater.

Extimous Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 I think this is a really good idea, it would be a very minor change to the effect of a character simply saying "Is something burning?", but it would have huge positive ramifications to the game experience. Wildfires are an extremely contentious topic, and it would effectively put an end to the common discourse like "if you don't like it turn it off/base in oasis/stay in caves" which can be unattractive options to a lot of players. There is a limit to how effective your diligence is at catching wildfires before they happen currently, and having these quotes gives all the control to the player and removes the surprise element. More players would be willing to deal with wildfires making it a more unilateral experience. I also believe this would be technically feasible since from my understanding, smolder is tied to a player and happens somewhere nearby that player.

ShadowbirdRH Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 I'd be for it. Wildfires generally keep me underground for most of summers, and if I'm to surface during summer, I try to keep it during the evening/night, and keep water balloons on hand. The extreme destructive potential of wildfires could well warrant some additional warning, especially without an in-depth options menu for adjusting the volume of specific sounds.

lenship2 Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 there's already in-game quotes for when something is smoldering, they just haven't been implemented for anything... yet you can see them if a generic item like a sign/recipe card is smoldering!

qwertyxavier904 Posted October 31, 2023 Author Share Posted October 31, 2023 Odd why they haven't added it. Were these in-game quote added recently?
