Downfall of DST


Recommended Posts

I would like to talk to someone that cares. I am loosing interest in this game because of players that ruin the experience. From people dyeing and staying in the game until they kill off everyone else, do to their sanity. To people breaking/burning/stealing the stuff you just spent hours to build. This is ridiculous, and that is putting it lightly. I want to hit somebody. Not sure if it is the player that messed up my stuff or the developer whom is not allowing a vote to kick(no, no. Vote to ban). It is that simple. I will continue to downgrade this game, write horrible reviews, and not recommend to anyone until this problem is solved. I enjoy this game and would recommend to anyone but not with these ignorant sheep running around ruining it for the rest of us working hard to survive.

90% of the online gaming community are complete idiots. I dont catagorise new people who are willing to learn under that, but the behaviour and social skills of the vast majority of people who I have crossed paths with has been shocking.

I rarely play a world open to the public, but when I do I don't base near portal, and rely on Simple Protection to secure my world.

Dont blame the game, blame the players. If you want good people to play with ask on these forums. The only people I still have on friends list are people I met here.

I think you need to play more online games.

I recommend Day-Z.

 

 

man, you would HATE Dayz, OP xD This is just the nature of online games. Any of them. Go try TF2, it's free. The community is trash, but the game is fine :p Dayz, literally everyone will shoot you on sight, still an awesome game. You either gotta figure out a way to avoid these players (play with friends/people you trust), or figure out how to outsmart the dummies :p

First or all the default survival where the ghost takes down sanity is next to .. no no .. it is impossible with a server of 16+ players.. just no way.  I set my server to endless so no sanity penalty and yes it is still hard.   I think the best option is a far away base or the teleporter wand thingy (lol) just zap the sob away...In the winter that will take care of them good. 

   Kick should not be an option because as soon as you kick someone they are mad and will come back and destroy everything.

   I understand where the reply's are coming from .  Trolls that destroy the game or grievers or whatever we are calling them are just part of life on the internet, but there does need to be some mechanics in place to at least try to minimize them. So understand both sides.  Getting mad at trolls is pointless because that is what they are after.

I wanted to reply to this thread because I feel the same: Im losing interest in the game.

Not because of trolls, but rather because of the lack of new content and how boring the whole thing is getting.

It has been a month or more since the last time I played.

Lack of new content?  Can you imagine when hot summers are put into this game.  My server goes for 14 player to 1-2 when winter hits ... Add summer (ice, shade, cooling) its going to get real hard real soon.  They are going to add in ROG soon so not sure what you are even talking about. Its beta!

  Yikes this thread is becoming  a bash Kliei thread.  Well everyone get it off your chest then :listening_headphone

One: thats not new content. It has been in SP for a while, and Ive enjoyed it as much as I could.

Two: I know its Beta and I know its difficult to turn a SP game in a MP one, and it takes time to put features in. But I can't enjoy it. When the original DS was in Beta, updates had a countdown of a month. That was interesting, we could talk about it and share our predictions on what new stuff would be released and discuss of said added features.

But with this Beta nothing is happening, and the community is dying.

whats new is you can play with others and that is what keeps it interesting. Trying to get everyone to work together and not just sit around eating food. Teaching the newbies new things. I know exactly what mctusk is going to do. Heck people post the formulas for what everything does. whats its agro distance,  how many hits with each weapon, and on and on but where is the formula for what another human playing is going to do?  

Well Don't Starve Together is much more difficult to add content to. It's like double the effort.

You have to think about something for DS, then think about how to translate it into DST.

 

Putting caves, adventure mode or RoG (especially RoG) is a huge amount of work.

I encourage you to mod, to see what Klei has to deal with.

 

I have spent more time coding than playing. :razz:

I grant freezing damage immunity to all players on my server and they still disconnect when winter hits. It's hopeless. Other than DS veterans, who's going to stay and play through the RoG summer?

 

There are more problems than lack of contents.

Don't do that.

 

These people would just stop playing DS if they were playing the single player.

This is no issue, get other people to play with you.

isn't this the nature of video games, that eventually you have seen everything?

Although I haven't been playing much for the past couple of months(mostly because of time constraints and dull knives), I can say that DST is actually one of the games that caught my attention for the longest, as it's both dictated by many random events that can screw you up a force you to endure the next radom event, but it's also dictated by the randomness of the idiocy of people, as a person can screw stuff up pretty badly, aswell as the randomness of their brilliance(which is pretty rare) when they have great ideas on how to save the game(or just themselves).

The community is NOT dying xD There are more server than there has ever been, more people playing than ever. Klei is working day and night to try and finish up DST. The reason there is no "new" content, is because they are trying to integrate RoG in right now. If they added a bunch of "new" stuff, then it would just create more bugs, more problems, and therefore a longer development time. 

 

Sounds like you just need a break from this game, buddy xP

^^^^^

Even though I listed "Skyrim" as my favorite game in my forum profile, I've been playing Don't Starve like everyday... seriously... since DS came out in 2013... everyday... O__O It's vagueness and randomness and creativeness-es-es-es keeps me coming back... but I do agree that if you don't have motivation to play... I think what you need is a bunch of good players to play with, and a host that can spawn stuff for your enjoyments... dedicated servers that have an actual host player to keep the peace... maybe you could be that one...

 

Imagine: A world you created, a gaggle of strangers wreaking havoc in it... forests burned down, not a sapling or grass tuft in sight... then you come along and spawn/plant one... they chase you... you use your orange staff to transport you to your inaccessible base off shore... you are the protector/destroyer of that world... that should keep you occupied

 

IDK

 

O__O

 

The community is NOT dying xD
I mean the forums community.

 

O__O

Revive it...

This is no issue, get other people to play with you.

 

You are wrong. Firstly, people learn quickly when playing solo because that's the only way to survive.

 

Secondly, freezing damage immunity is implemented to address an issue that never exists in DT: wilderness winter. Cheat death and skip event using the disconnect button is also a thing that does not exist in DS.

 

Thirdly, get new people to play with me is not a problem, get them to stay is.

1) If people can survive in multiplayer because others carry them, then the issue is with the enablers. Let noobs die. If others won't let them die, then let them go with the enablers. You can survive by not playing, which is what these people are doing: they wouldn't play single player, they would die at winter, ***** about it, then either get good or not play, or cheat.

 

2) There are mods and a console in DS: if people want to cheat death and skip events they can do it. If you hate it when they do it at your server, ban them.

 

3) Why do you think they leave?

 

What is the problem? People don't play how it's intended?
