  1. Fantastic! It's now the only game I play and stream so is AMAZING! My only problem is I have no idea how to use this at all in OBS or Twitch Studio. All the how to YT vids are confusing.
  2. Hinterlands YouTube channel has added a 27th (unavailable) for now video to their Game Update Playlist. The 26th video was for Frontier Comforts. Brace for an incoming update!
  3. There is always a December Update. It can happen anytime in the first 2 weeks of the month...after that it means that a potential hotfix will have to be rushed in order to get it out before Hinterland's winter break.
  4. I believe it's the obvious...follow the sign...the sign points to Immutable Hesitation...opening that will be no different than when they opened the tunnel collapse in ML when they added Forlorn Muskeg. Also that video from Zak, (unless I misread), it doesn't show anything about a shortcut in Forsaken Airfield...I thought you were meaning there was a way to actually Goat up the Tree on the right in FA...if you're very lucky you can do it by the way.
  5. Just a thing to keep checking RE the Upcoming update. Before the last update the Hinterland youtube channel in the Game Update video list had 25 videos with one hidden (the hidden one appeared a day or 2 before the update release). So I've been checking the same video list for 26 videos (with one hidden) but that hasn't happened yet.
  6. They are absolutely including the Cougar. Raphael has been talking about adding one for years, excitedly, and he's not about to not add it now.
  7. Oh I can understand that loud and clear. But this is Hinterland's story to tell. And I have learned to trust them with that story. Signal Void had me hooked and I can't wait for it to continue. Just to be even clearer, I don't think anyone foresaw this when an Industrial Mine region was announced as one of the three. However I don't write things off just because they don't fit my pre-conceived ideas, I play them first to get a feel for them. Glimmer fog is not even truly difficult once you're good with navigation, but I love how the world looks in the glimmer fog around the airfield. To be honest, this new region will probably take more getting used to for me, but I'm excited to got there, survive there and see how it shakes out.
  8. I spent my first 100 hours on Pilgrim mastering landmark based navigation which is how Hinterland directs us around regions and how to navigate the menus and other things to survive like how to boil water. I spent my next 160 hours playing Voyageur (Normal) exclusively. To get used to wildlife, hunting, meat smell, fire management and other things like finding safe routes to avoid wildlife. I also learned how to hunt. Eventually Voyageur became too easy for me...and so I moved up to Stalker, which plenty consider to be more difficult than Interloper because of the approximately 17 Quintillion wolves that straight away eat your face. Because of learning safe travel routes free of predators...I found these wolves easy to avoid. Within a couple of hundred hours of Stalker I hade it down to an art form (that I often still enjoy). I play on any level from Pilgrim through Interloper to unlock achievements. But for the most part, since I have unlocked all the achievements I care about I now play CUSTOM. I have two codes One Set between Stalker and Interloper (that I used to train to play on Interloper difficulty. And the other between Interloper and Codes like Deadman and NOGOA (No One Gets Out Alive). My biggest advice to you, with near 6,000 hours played...is to continue trying, ask questions like this, and learn from all of your sandbox deaths. That is how each of us learned.
  9. Erm...I'm a 2015 player...and I'm all in thank you very much. 2015-16 is when I started playing...and I'm loving the new elements just as much as the old. Can't wait to explore the Zone of Contamination. However I also understand your position and can see why you're disappointed in the upcoming Tales December Release Direction. I hope you give it a fair shake.
  10. Oh my God! This is utterly unexpected and amazing! WOW! Closing in on 6,000 hours on steam and still new stuff being added to make the survival even more amazing! Thank you Hinterland!
  11. I used the Godrays from Extra Graphis Settings mod in Orange to make my screenshots extra spicy!
  12. This is great! A number of the squashed bugs I recognize as many I contacted the team about! Fantastic work! Thank You!
  13. We have two new regions coming up that both connect to Transfer Pass in the Far Territory. Industrial Mine Region and Mountain Pass Region. The previously mentioned rope anchor could lead down to Mountain Pass. According to a sign near the Vacant Depot...the way to Langston Mine is to the right...if you go all the way in that direction it is blocked off by some impassible rocks. But that way will open next. Don't forget that in Episode 5 we will at the very least be getting Perseverance Mills...and other unknown areas to pass through to get their.
  14. Recently they split the team into a group working solely on Episode 5 and one working Solely on the Tales expansion. They are working hard on Episode 5 and the plan is last we heard that it will be releasing sometime next year. The idea is that while the Episode 5 branch of the team works hard on completing it in the meantime we still get tons of new content as we wait. Once TFTFT is completed, I feel as if we won't have long to wait for Episode 5 to finally hit as well. However we as fans and players must understand that Episode 5 is likely going to be the longest Episode yet as it has a lot of plot points to tie together to give Hinterland and Us a satisfactory ending.
  15. My go to is a pot and a can...has been for awhile. Adding a skillet to that...sure, why not. Not really a big deal for me.
