Of course! Should've known the hounds would be colored the same as other monsters!

Sept. 27... is it just me, or is something odd about that threads headline? ;D

edit: ... and it seems the video does not want to play for me. nothing happens when hitting the button to start it.

edit2: ok, I just watched it on your homepage, works there, must be something odd with the linked video in the forum here.

Not sure why it won't play for you here, I can't reproduce that problem in any of my browsers. But in case anyone else has that problem here's the blog url: http://www.dontstarvegame.com/blog/update-teaser-trailer-birds-and-the-bees-and-the-dogs-that-want-to-kill-you/

Also, I fixed that title Thanks!

Very nice... the football helmet, bee mines, blowgun, hounds, and the amulet in action. Also, what was up with all those tallbirds? Maybe it's just the map that was used for the video...? I assume the your character cannot set-off a landmine they placed? If so, then that would allow you to secure your base camp, while allow you to enter/leave with relative ease. Otherwise, not as much.

[Fiendish]

Wow this looks really cool. Can't wait to try out the blowgun and fight then hounds

we didn't see any hounds die, so there's no clear indicator what they will drop when they do. I assume monster meat... but something else as well maybe. Teeth?

[icemoo]

disapointed the hounds look like werepigs on 4 legs instead of 2

[Bogpad]

actually, after I checked it on your homepage, it would also play here in the forum, hence I edited the stuff out again, propably just firefox beeing a bit crazy on me.

what are you talking of? they look like dogs, werepigs don't, they are greyish black, werepigs are not, they have a giant mouth with mean sharp teeth, werepigs don't...

I think you mix up "having the same artstyle" with "looking alike".

On second look of the trailer, i must of seen something wrong because they do look different maybe its just the teeth. Though your probably right

[Chocolate Tree]

I won't until I pet one of those creepy things

Awesome job guys... looking forward to try some of that fresh staff...

[Excess]

Wow, reviving right away, on the same spot... that's gonna get though. What if the cause of death is still around?

I'm gonna keep making effigies, just in case... O_O

[A Bad Feeling]

I just can't wait to play! It looks beautiful!

[Toaster Fu]

It looks awesome! And I was spot on with that football helmet pic.

[mobius187]

That reminds me... where did I leave my amulet? I better find out where I left it before Tuesday.

[prfella]

WOW. Simply amazing. Everything.

[LadyD]

looking forward to this.

Bee mines. Hounds... Its going to be great. And was that waffles i saw in the background!

OO I think I saw the taco too?

Kevin likes to tease!

Wow those hounds have BIG mouths.

[NeedPants]

With my infinite wisdom ive deduced out of the video material that dog is NOT mans best friend.

Thought ud want to know.

Well im back to cats

[Sharlow]

Hmm.. it looked like the backpack went into the armor slot. So, can we not have a backpack and a logsuit at the same time? That sort of worries me.

[501105]

Damn, now I cant wait until it is tuesday and I was just trying to learn how to have some patience:p. Very nice stuff indeed.

[Jade]

Wow! You have me in so much anticipation for the next update! ^_^

[TheCelloPony]

Patch looks brilliant, the makeshift unconventional weaponry really fits the setting of the game! Looking forwards to playing with the changes and experimenting with what I can do with them!

[DFox]

Dogs may be domesticated?

[pisio]

I see Research Points up there, but Kevin stated that they would be eliminated. What happened?

[Chocolate Tree]

Dogs may be domesticated?

not for now.... but if you see one go hug it.... i'm sure he will give the hug back ;P

They definitely have to come up with a way to "summon" a pet....wait....that's it

cheers
