1:19:00 Does West low mean the wind is coming from the west and it is low strength?
@FlailyMcFlailerson
@FlailyMcFlailerson 5 дней назад
Is it coming from the West or blowing to the West? And how low strength? Is "low" anywhere from 1-5 on your windage adjustment, since it goes to 15? Is it like if you're facing North or South (so the wind is 100% going side to side), Low West would mean adjust your windage to +/- 5, whereas if you're facing NE/NW/SE/SW (so the wind is partly toward/away and partly side to side) you only adjust to +/- 3? I really would like to see the devs add a findable book explaining things like that, because the windage thing is all trial and error right now, and isn't usually consistent enough to fiddle with, in my (admittedly limited) experience. Maybe it's more practical in PVP, I don't know.

That’s a shame you’re leaving it, but I get the frustration. You were doing pretty well against the bloater too. I think you had no armour on so that meant that every acid spit was full force. Plus the save issue was a nightmare. If you do try again, I noticed you had a helmet in the truck. I also suggest you run into the gym, grab the key card and then run out, leaving the bloater shut in the gym. Then you can loot that locked room at leisure and leave the bloater for another day. I don’t play the games you mentioned, but I have seen others play them. For a complete change of scenery, I really enjoy Planet Crafter and Medieval Dynasty - both much more relaxed games. They both have co-op mode although I only play single player. Look at a couple of videos to get a feel for each and see if you want that change from the zombie genre.

Like I said, it CAN BE a fun game, but when everything you've worked for the whole time gets ruined by a bug and you have to start over again, just to probably encounter another game-breaking bug, it makes it very hard to keep coming back. I will look into the other games you mentioned. I like games with a combination of peaceful base building and tense action. It keeps things interesting.

I played SOTF briefly after recording Mist, just to get a feel for the basics. It seems very interesting. It looks like you can do a lot with building and I'm fascinated by the inventory system. It's all very hands-on. You physically combine things when crafting, and with building, you're manually placing the different components. Still getting used to the combat, but all I had was the starter axe and a crafted spear, so not very effective...

OK, I don’t do much building so I’m not sure if this would work. At 19:30 you’re trying to put up a full height foundation but you can only do a half height. This idea will waist the materials for one foundation. Put in the half height foundation, which you will destroy after the next step, then further up the hill behind the foundation you just installed put another half up foundation. Then destroy the first, lower one and then you can snap to the higher foundation giving you what you wanted. I’m only at the 20 min mark in your video, so you may have figured this out by the end, but food for thought I guess. 😊
@FlailyMcFlailerson
@FlailyMcFlailerson 8 дней назад
That could work. but it might be more effective (maybe, I dont know) to leave it as is, and just build a half wall on the half height foundation and build a floor ontop of that, level with the full height foundation. Your way would be cleaner in the end, for sure. It just seems a shame to build a foundation just to destroy it and replace it with a different one. Then again, that's what half of basebuilding in Scum is. Build something, it doesn't work, tear it down, build something better 😅

@@FlailyMcFlailerson Can you place a foundation on top of another foundation? I’ve been playing this game since 2020 and I don’t think I’ve ever tried that. As I said, I don’t do a lot of base building and what I do build is usually very efficient and utilitarian. It would be nice if you could lay more than 10 blueprints and if they could snap together. That way one could build their base with blueprints and modify it BEFORE committing a whole bunch of materials to it. I have built some bases where I tear a bunch of it down and rebuild it because something was out of alignment. Gotta love OCD.😉

I agree completely. Blueprints absolutely should snap together. Because of the way I like to build, and my OCD, I almost always end up tearing down and rebuilding numerous times. It is extremely frustrating. As far as stacking foundations, I'm fairly certain you cannot, unfortunately. As far as I know, you have to build foundations, then add the support beams ontop of that, then floor ontop of those.

I was thinking the bow might be more useful against human opponents for trying to stay stealthy. I don't know if it would work for that or not, but I figured I'd give it a try. I'd really like to see the zombie speed adjusted. They're abnormally fast. Then again, they're supernatural and almost like a zombie-vampire hybrid or the infected from "I Am Legend" given that they start to burn in sunlight, so perhaps their speed is fairly accurate for what they're supposed to be. I'd still like to see them slowed down a little, or at least smoothed out a bit.

I would say school next. Just remember to clear the floors of zombies before going into the gym. It’s almost instant kill for the zombies when you’ve got the flamethrower. Not the bloater though - he’s tough! There are benches to hide behind when the bloater spits at you, but it’s still a tough job. Fire and hide, fire and hide, fire and hide. Eventually he will fall. Save before you start!! An FYI for you, the bloater spits acid which hurts you when you stand on it. However if you wear the gas mask, for some reason you can walk on the mess he leaves on the floor. Or back to that bandit camp and roast the armoured bandit. I think that will work for you. You can roast the normal bandits too of course.
@FlailyMcFlailerson
@FlailyMcFlailerson 9 дней назад
Would you recommend the flamethrower for the bloater, given its relatively short range, or would you suggest a more ranged approach (until I run out of ammo on all my guns, then switch to the flamethrower)? Also, is there a way to unload ammo from weapons so I can use it in other weapons. Specifically looking at unloading the M4 so I can use the ammo in the AK47 with the drum magazine so I'm not having to reload as often. And do you know where I might find the better shotgun?
@gavinhalliday5231
@gavinhalliday5231 9 дней назад
@@FlailyMcFlailerson I think it takes about 50 bullets I’d say to kill the bloater, so personally I used the flamethrower against him. I blasted him for a second, then hid behind the benches, then blasted him again, then hid, etc etc. I think I used a full bottle of propane in maybe 10 or 12 blasts. Use sporadic shotgun attacks as a back up I reckon. In terms of the better shotgun, I found it in a gun cabinet in the military camp outside the White House. But the game has changed a lot with the last update and has got a lot more difficult. The key card to open the locked units used to be on top of the generator outside of one of them, but now to gain access to those units I think you now need to kill two bloaters in the research facility! It may have been inside the unit you can get in to at that checkpoint - the one that has one zombie shut in it. I’m afraid I can’t remember exactly where in that checkpoint area I found it - but it was there somewhere.

That's unfortunate if he did. I may end up using the cheat menu to spawn a few things in just to make things more interesting (ammo being a big one). I know there's still a lot I can do, but I'm having trouble finding motivation to actually do any of it because of how incomplete the game feels. Such as, I know there's farming in the game, and I can tame the chickens, but there doesn't really seem to be a reason to do it in the current build, other than just to do it because you can. I believe it was you (I could be remembering wrong, and if so, I apologize) who said the farming is basically useful for getting seeds/food to trade, but the actual food isn't really worth it for eating right now. But the trader doesn't have anything I want, so I don't see the point in collecting stuff for trade. And I can find wild chickens to hunt all over the place, so why bother taming them if they don't lay eggs currently? Same with base building. Why bother building all the cool stuff, when the White House already has a lot of what I need? And why bother building the big cabins? It just seems like there's not enough in the game currently to bother doing all the "long term" stuff. But maybe I'm just missing something, I dunno. I'm finding it harder and harder to keep doing the Mist series right now because it doesn't feel like there's really enough reason to stick with the game long term right now, not to mention how many bugs are still in the game, which makes me not look forward to playing it as much as I would like.

It’s a survival game- at least I think it is and want to play it as such - but the developer is making it more of a combat and task oriented game.

The down side is it’s harder to make replacements if you don’t have any feathers on you and making plain ones will require a separate stack. 2. When running from a puppet horde, jump over rocks or fences etc. they will take damage when they also jump over. 3. There were other comments but the jokes I made would no longer be in context and would probably fall flat now. Oh, well, your loss.😅 Now the new… I’m writing these comments as I’m watching the video, so you may have already discovered some of these. 1.

Ok you were badly cheated there so I am going to give you full info on how to get another flamethrower. So the flamethrower in the school is the next target. Again about 6 or 7 so zombies inside - two of them are shut in the library on the second floor, but the rest roam free over the two floors. So take them out first, then find the gym on the ground floor. Open the gym door, run to the centre of the gym and you will see a body with a key card in front of it. Pick the card up and then get out the gym, closing the door behind you. Don’t panic - but as you approach the body a door in the corner will open and the bloater will come out and run at you. But you can outrun him. If you stay and try to fight him, after a few seconds another door will open and two zombies will rush at you. So best just to get the card and leg it, closing them all in the gym behind you. Then just along the gym corridor is a locked room which the key card opens, and inside that room is a flamethrower. Least there’d better be!! Lost of other items too. You can leave the bloater and the two zombies in the gym for another day. In the room he came out of is a heart and about 20 lockers! Use the flamethrower on the heart and the bloater and his two zombie buddies will not come back again when you next visit. The free roaming zombies in the other pasty’s of the school will be back every time you log back in.

Is it just blurry occasionally or the whole video? I've noticed RU-vid will auto-adjust the resolution randomly, so maybe that's the cause? I haven't noticed the blurriness when I watch the videos, but I have had that happen before, and as far as I can tell, it's RU-vid adjusting the resolution. I upload everything in HD, so it SHOULD be nice and clear, but I will keep an eye on things. Please let me know if it keeps happening and if it's just occasionally or constant throughout the whole video.

I watched one well known Canadian creator tackle that bandit base. He towed a caravan there, then hid inside the caravan and fired out the windows. The bandits all came over but couldn’t see him inside so he killed them off one by one. They were “bleeding” through the caravan door a bit but not firing their weapons, so it looked pretty easy. Even that boss bandit with the shield was quite easy to despatch. There’s the dog in that camp by the way - not an NPC. But there is also a sniper who is very accurate, but again has trouble shooting you in the caravan. Once you reach the base of his tower you can just walk up the stairs and despatch him at the top.
@FlailyMcFlailerson
@FlailyMcFlailerson 16 дней назад
THAT sounds like a great way to tackle bandit camps! I never thought about using the caravan as mobile cover. I'm assuming the boss bandit was bugged when I fought him. 70+ rounds to the head at point blank range should've been enough to kill him, I would've thought. If that's just his normal health, then that needs a MAJOR rework.

@@FlailyMcFlailerson The boss bandit wasn’t fazed by most of your shots, but some did stagger him. Those shots were in the shoulder I think. You may need to check your video and experiment with shooting him in different spots. He’s wearing head to toe armor so it’s just a matter of finding his vulnerable spot. It seems to me the boss in the new mine has a similar sweet spot but I haven’t played since 2022 so I’m not sure. You could also use the bow and arrows, cheaper to make arrows then bullets.

@@FlailyMcFlailerson most of your shots just bounced off his shield or his helmet - so all these shots to the face did nothing, but I think shorting his feet was working. Once or twice he stumbled, and that essentially was him losing a little health. But he may need to stumble 8 times or whatever before he has actually lost all his health. He also drops his shield after a few injuries. Same approach with the zombie boss in the tunnel - he has almost impenetrable skin on all of his body apart from an area on his arm and shoulder which is all puss filled boils. Lovely! He sometimes tries to hide that area, but you need to keep shooting there and he stumbles and loses a little health each time you do so.

I absolutely hate boss fights like that. It's VERY unrealistic. No armor is impenetrable, especially after THAT MANY hits to the same spot. Face armor especially. His armor should get damaged/destroyed after several direct hits. But ok I guess. I'll shoot him in the foot 37 times or roast him like a marshmallow once I find the flamethrower. With the boss in the mine, I can sort of understand it more. It's some mutated variation of the infected, if memory serves. But ordinary humans like the bandits should not be that bulletproof.
@gavinhalliday5231
@gavinhalliday5231 16 дней назад
Keep going I would say, but leave the bandit camps and the more difficult POIs until you have better weapons - especially the flame thrower. I can’t remember where you’ve been, but there is a three floored green house on a hill near the church. Five zombies inside, but they are beatable one at a time with a shotgun. Shoot and run - shoot and run!! Flame thrower should be on the third floor lying on a cabinet. Also a backpack upgrade on second floor. Once you have the flame thrower take out the seekers at the church, then roast the “heart” inside the church and the seekers won’t come back, and get two more backpacks inside church. Visit the far away hunting area for another backpack on top of radio tower, visit the limber mill for two more upgrades, visit the bandit camp near your house next to the coffee shop - a survivor there and a backpack (I think) - and it has no boss bandit types or snipers. I am not 100% sure that you have cleared that military camp right at the White House? Backpack on top of radio tower there. Lots to do before tackling the “hard” stuff.
@FlailyMcFlailerson
@FlailyMcFlailerson 16 дней назад
I have cleared the military checkpoint across the road from my base, if that's the one you're referring too. Pretty sure I got the backpack upgrade from there, but it's possible that that was yet another thing that didn't get saved. What ammo does the flamethrower use? Can I just fill it with gasoline, or does it take specific ammunition? I think I've also gotten the backpack from the far away hunting area, as I think that's the one I was going to make a base in originally, but again, it may not have gotten saved. I've lost track of what all I have and haven't done because half the time I don't remember to manually save, and the game doesn't autosave when you log out, nor does it remind you to save before letting you log out. A simple autosave feature would save a whole lot of frustration, and it's a concept that's been in virtually all games made in the last 10-15 years or more, so I don't know why the dev didn't implement that here.

@gavinhalliday5231 16 дней назад
@@FlailyMcFlailerson I can’t remember where you’ve been either!! But judging by how many backpack slots you still need to open, I think there is quite a lot still to do. The flamethrower uses the little red propane canisters you will find lying around, and they themselves are filled from the larger propane tanks you will also see dotted around. In this latest update, propane tanks have become more difficult to find and do not refill themselves, which they used to. It’s a bit fiddly to refill - kind of like getting fuel from vehicles. Have a canister in your inventory, look for the prompt to attach the canister, then look very slightly away from canister and look for a different prompt to fill it, then look back at it and look for a prompt to collect it. Once you do it once you’ll find it easy, but the looking slightly away bit caught me out.
@FlailyMcFlailerson
@FlailyMcFlailerson 16 дней назад
That seems awkward, but ok. Also, propane is a terrible fuel for flamethrowers. In those tanks, propane is a gas, meaning it won't shoot forward in a long stream like a flamethrower requires. The gas would simply ignite at the pilot light and become nothing more than a very large cutting torch. Flamethrowers require liquid fuel as they simply shoot a stream of flammable liquid through a small flame, igniting the fuel on its way to its intended (or unintended) target. Sorry, I know it's a game and the dev is not particularly knowledgeable about a lot of this stuff, but my brain still nitpicks at these kinds of things...

I never “revive” - especially if I have recently saved. Too painful to lose so many items. Cheating? Maybe.
@FlailyMcFlailerson
@FlailyMcFlailerson 16 дней назад
Considering the game has no autosave feature, I don't view it as cheating, especially as buggy as the game is. The whole "revive" thing itself is kind of awkward anyway. How did I "get knocked unconscious" during a firefight, but the bandits or zombies were kind enough to give me a ride home and dump me out on my front porch, but as payment for the ride, they take some of my stuff? It really doesn't make sense. So honestly, reverting back to your most recent save makes MORE sense, so I don't view it as cheating at all. It's the more sensible way to do it, and in my opinion, it's how it should've been done in the first place. But the game also needs an autosave feature!!!

@@FlailyMcFlailerson I believe that the game didn’t originally have a SAVE option. When you died, you could revive back at your base as you were before leaving it, minus a bunch of stuff you’d loose. Or you could quit your current game and start anew, sort of a Perma-Death situation. The manual SAVE option was added some time after I started playing in 2018. So it does have an auto save feature as described here.
@FlailyMcFlailerson
@FlailyMcFlailerson 16 дней назад
My wish for autosave is more along the lines of saving when you log off the game. Numerous times I've forgotten to manually save before exiting the game, and then ALL my progress from that session is lost. I still think the current "revive" system doesn't make sense, though. It's not so much an autosave in the sense that ONLY YOU respawn back at your base. Your vehicle and whatever stuff you lost is still wherever you died. Losing the stuff I can understand. It's meant to be a sort of punishment and an incentive to not die. But the idea that your vehicle is still on the other side of the map means it's not an autosave feature, it's an awkward respawn feature. I'm still trying to figure out how I got back to my base. Who took me home? Why did they leave my vehicle out there? And why did I lose some random stuff, but it's probably laying on the ground (or floating in the air) where I died? It's just a bit confusing to me. Then again, it doesn't take much to confuse me...
