TheKingofSquirrels Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Is nobody else gonna question the stupidity of having hounds on a tropical island? Can you please at least skin them to look like hyenas, something that fits the theme of Shipwrecked, cause at the moment I can only picture that this is what's attacking me...

Hounds ensure the player is always on their toes, so I think its nice that they're still in Shipwrecked. Also, maybe hounds wanted to sun bathe? (The Red hounds anyway...)

However, they should be replaced with something that fits the Shipwrecked theme. Really at the moment, it feels like Klei is being cheap and just recycling its content.

Also Red and blue Hyenas sounds complicated or maybe...THEY DOG PADDLED TO SHIPWRECKED. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKingofSquirrels Posted February 26, 2016 Author Share Posted February 26, 2016 It kills the immersion for me tbh. Also, I wasn't aware they had seasonal hounds in SW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldruthlace Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 I think they're fine as they are now, but I get what you're saying. Though having them as hyenas wouldn't be much better; hyenas are only in Africa that I'm aware of, so a large land mass safari, not tropical islands. Maybe they could have some kind of really excited large iguanas or something. Personally I think it'd be great if the hounds were turned into actual bloodhounds in sunglasses, though I feel I might die of laughter while trying to fight them...

JimmyJam Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 I would like to see this and also reskins for the crab den saplings and grass tuffs but that's just me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about the fact that the hounds can magically appear on islands small enough to traverse in less than a day...? >.> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I know, but at least it's closer-ish. Maybe jungle wolves? Those are actually a thing. 3 hours ago, Zeklo said: What about the fact that the hounds can magically appear on islands small enough to traverse in less than a day...? >.> Yeah, but at least if they were Hyenas, I would get the feeling that they were living there and not just a "copy and paste" from Vanilla.

voyager156 Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Hmm I really like this idea. Mechanics could be just the same as with hounds - just re-skin them. My proposition would be: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
