achy90 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Scene: Here I am day 79 adventuring off looking for more tallbird eggs and rocks to mine. I walk 3 islands to get to the rocks and i hear hounds. I have never had a problem with hounds but i have never stood in one position while a fire hound comes to attack me. I kill the fire hound kill the other 3 normal hounds and i see the fire. I was standing near the fire even though it was at the bottom of my screen telling me I was on fire than i die. I think fire should make your screen red like you are getting hit by a spider without a log suit or something because my 79 day game is gone because i didnt realize i was on fire. I was trying to grow another beard to make a effigie but i ran into the fire hound and died. I didnt even realize i was on fire. Make fire more noticable when you are lit on fire.

BarovSoap Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 For this reason I use Willow. I feel her fire resistance is better than the other abilities but that is my opinion.

McMatthew Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 I think the graphic is fine, but I think there should be a louder sound of fire roaring. Or, at least the sound of your character taking damage that you get when being hit by aggressive mobs.

ManagerOfWar Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 I think the character should make the "taking damage sound" while on fire, I never even knew that if the fire is shown on your screen you're taking damage. It always seemed to me like a "Theres fire nearby!" kind of thing.

Ran Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 I agree. While I never died to it (just out of chance, really), it took several times to even realize that fire on the bottom of the screen meant I was taking damage from it. I thought it just mean something like "Whoops, you caused a forest fire, you big dummy!", lol. It definitely needs to have a "taking damage" sound. Maybe even the red flashing too.

BarovSoap Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 I realized it takes damage when I set the world on fire to kill spider nests. Trees everywhere + spider nests within the trees = FIRE!! Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/5792-flames/#findComment-46115 Share on other sites More sharing options...
