Reign of Giants: Your Discoveries

Is this intended? One of my Moleworms is named "Raised dirt" in inventory (whacked).

Its not intended, and if you drop the bugged one while he is hungry, it will continue to say Hungry/Starving Raised Dirt.

Acorns - I don't know about OP. You only get one per tree so there is a  very limited amount.

 

Tumbleweeds - Awesome, and yes, OP.

 

I love the deciduous forest biome, it's gorgeous. Sort of get confused though, as its so brown, I always think its Fall. Maybe the ground should change to mostly green in the Spring?

 

My main complaint is the heat. The heat in the summer is a PAIN IN THE PATOOT! I now have to spend two whole seasons hanging around camp so I don't die. The ice hat is okay, but get into a fight, change your hat, and you'll be dead of heatstroke before you win/lose the fight. It gets boring.

 

This is my absolute biggest pet peeve: Food rots in the crockpots and drying racks. REALLY? What's the point of building the &$#@*! things if they don't keep food! Look, I can understand the crockpots, FINE, I hated building them anyway, but the drying racks! The only thing left is a fridge. If I can't keep food in the pots or racks, then by gory, I should get more shelflife from the )^%#*%* fridge! ARRGGHHH!

 

Okay. Okay. Sorry. Didn't mean to go all Crazy Dave on you, Klei. I'm really sorry. Especially about the langauge. But, I mean, REALLY! THE DRYING RACKS! *%(#^$# $%^(#@  &@^(@&^* (@%@$(%&!

 

Oops. Okay, moving on.

 

I am dying to see the giants! I need challenge! On that note, I was really hoping for more quest-like content. I have this super-base and I've finished the main quest. Please give me more to do. I can't seem to justify sitting around and doing nothing but "surviving". My girlfriend is complaining about "bills" or something.

Well if you revisit your base every three days and stuff the jerky in the fridge, its hard to make them rot. Crock pot cooks fast; cook and wait then stuff things in fridge.

 

I can manage the heat thing, but its hard to get my sanity to go when I can't wear my Mactusk hat. I am willow and my base is a tinderbox. I need 90 sanity to go to it,  because its a island base. It would be awesome to have a shirt of sorts that gives me lots of sanity. However, I made lots of bad choices in my set up. I should have flipped my base around from what it is now, planted lots of flowers before spring, and done some other set up things.

 

The ground is brown there from the fallen leaves. Nothing cleans them up I suppose.

My main complaint is the heat. The heat in the summer is a PAIN IN THE PATOOT! I now have to spend two whole seasons hanging around camp so I don't die. The ice hat is okay, but get into a fight, change your hat, and you'll be dead of heatstroke before you win/lose the fight. It gets boring.

I think the solution in your case is to use body armor for fights, not head armor.  But if it's a hound wave, drop your pack far away from the battle if you don't want it to go up in flames.

 

I find the summer to be awesome actually.  The super-long days let me get so much done!  It's true that both the  practical items for dealing with the heat are spoiling items.  and in a spring start it's very possible to not find enough ice to use just the hat the whole summer.    I find myself doing some intensive farming in that case, to get enough melons. 

 

I like to spend as much of my summer away from my main camp as possible, so I don't have to worry about combusting buildings.  Sometimes I make a "summer" base that is more spartan, having only as many buildings as I can see around a moderate campfire (to douse any smoldering), and one perpetually on flinger which protects all my crops, grass, and twigs.  For now don't build your farms in fire range of anything else, because there's a bug where the flinger can't put out a growing crop that's smoldering, and neither can you.

I tend to build two siesta lean-tos and two tents for summer, turn my ice flingomatic on, leave my camp as far as is feasible with an ice hat, a fridge, enough jerky to see me through and said tents and lean-tos, set up camp in a mostly empty field and then just sleep through most of it. I'm so scared of spontaneous combustion, it's such a mean thing, I don't even dare to walk around in my world in fear of everything turning to ashes. That's my biggest problem with summer so far, all the burning. Heat I can handle, but everything burning, possibly even without me noticing... no thanks.

Sorry for double post BUT HOLY CRAP HE GROWS A BEARD (and it can indeed be shaved to get silk)

Also, he starts with Monster Meat (4 to be exact) in his inventory. ALSO HE DOESNT LOSE HEALTH FROM MONSTER MEAT, ONLY SANITY.

Someone needs to update the don't starve wiki.
