Burdened change

[xSimrick Lvl 200 USEast2GoblinPosts: 94]

So this morning I logged on and people informed me of dev notes being released.

I read them and there is a passage about nerfing my assassin feeding and then I read about overburdened changing.
It says we will no longer drop things and just be slower based on how much weight we carry.
At first I thought it would be cool to no longer drop things. Then I figure that despite how annoying it was, it was something that would push people to proper weight management but did not make being heavy completely impossible (if annoying). Dropping stuff was the kind of genius troll that worked pretty well in the game.

I didn’t really know how to feel about the change. Which is literally what I told another player I sometimes discuss these changes with. This player and I proceeded to do business which involved some pretty heavy resources. We compromised by meeting in the middle and before we got halfway there we both knew the change was bad. Our speed was respectively 5 and 0 and we prepared by wearing humming and exploration gear. This change makes it impossible for certain quantities of some resources to be traded. I had someone push me while walking because it was actually faster that way.

Please tweak this soon.

P.S. Where the F*** are our alpacas?

No more mining until you are 4x your weight limit. Hooray! (Sarcasm)

Try buying wool with other resources… it is hell. Because of course wool is a famously heavy substance.

I dont mind if dev returns function of dropping items when burdened. But zero speed sucks. It should be capped at -50% speed at most.

I, as a miner, 100/% LOVE this change

Done any deliveries since the update? When your costumers order 15k stone I suggest you make them come pick it up. Or find someone to push you… It really is faster.

Oh I see haha. I never did any large deliveries. I see where that could be a pain haha.

Off topic but I’m fairly new here: why’s it say I’m lvl 62 when I carned earlier today?

I would much rather. Not drop any items from burden. Yeah the speed at 0 lmao does suk. Maybe we now have to do protected caravans ? Tribe mates will come in handy for sure.

yeah I definitely see some sort of market for body guard services during heavy transport 🙂 On a day to day level I find it helpful but I dread having to move any large amount of anything too, I tested it out in my base and paint dries faster than I can get around so I agree its a little TOO slow. If tweaking it isn’t considered an option, perhaps a food dish that could counteract the affects for short period of time, or Zealots suggestion of a weight reducing rune would be useful

Welp. EU has no more problems for this update. I take back my statement.
