This weirdly confirms that the knox event isnt the end of days

# terse wigeon no gas 2 go vs fossoil = bad post

Gas 2 Go gas stations have 30% less lead in their gasoline, and Gas 2 Go gas stations have on average less vending machines than Fossoil service stations.

Studies have shown that the general hostility of Gas 2 Go employees and the emphasis on reckless driving don't resonate well with children.

Fossoil has been working on a partnership with Spiffo's to offer a restaurant/service station.

Why choose Gas 2 Go when you can have a dinosaur in your gas tank? Don't cheap out on gas. Go Fossoil.

Fossoil does not support this Communist propaganda. Do your part. Fight Communism. Choose Fossoil.

frank echo
#

The same people using Gas 2 Go couldn't afford to keep their tanks full, which is why all of the Gas 2 Go customers had to leave their cars with empty tanks abandoned all over Knox County.

fossoil didnt want the knox event to get out to the public

#

fossoil wanted it to stay this way so people would continue life as normal minimising damages done to the business by people not going outside

#

are these people your friends?

frank echo
#

Gas 2 Go didn't want residents of Knox County to leave their very minor sphere of influence, as evidenced by their failure to provide free gas during emergencies.

the mod menu is vastly improved, great change.

#

Mixed feelings about the player sounds but not sure if that's just my hesitancy for change & being used to silent players boris_badger

wooden cloak
#

sound effects are amazing for both male and female characters.

acoustic lava
#

aw sweet, an aphid

wooden cloak
#

more fishing bait

dusty perch
#

Will the eventual NPCs also have sounds?

bitter zephyr
#

I think the player sounds are fun, however I'm worried that when I'm playing multiplayer everyone using the same exertion sounds will get old fast

dusty perch
#

true, good point

wooden cloak
#

just need a farting and burping sound after eating.

dusty perch
#

It's probably going to be a sound settings thing but I wouldn't mind it being toggleable elsewhere per player; that may be too much of a task but a person can dream

warm sequoia
dusty perch
#

Ah they'll be silent like the player is currently? Good to know

#

I'm specifically meaning the exertion/etc sounds, not just dialogue

winter locust
#

Tying exertion sounds to how much stamina an action takes could be a good way to space out the sfx while also adding more transparency to how much actions take as without mods you don't really know

dusty perch
#

man i wish i could react in forum threads

dire vapor
#

the male voice actor really sounds like he is doing his best quake guy impression

"We definitely need to tone things down or it’s going to get a little too ‘top tier ladies tennis match’."
combat grunts would probably feel better if they had a higher chance to appear the more tired you are
if u aren ot tired, 10% chace to grunt
tired, 30 %
very tired, 50%
or something of that nature

unique flicker
#

Maybe more voice sets in vanilla, mods will come for sure. Loving it (but agreed, don't need sound on every action)

nimble obsidian
#

I really hope that the mod incompatibility issue doesn't cause me to loose my favourite mods. There are some that do conflict but they work and being forced to chose one or the other seems odd.

atomic sigil
#

we maybe could get few people voicing male and female characters, and have the abbility to chose their voice when we create a character, just to not make it sound samey 🤔

I think the coolest part is they can just keep expanding the map anyway they want too doesn’t matter where

main herald

Dang it

#

from the knoxevent Twitter Account: "Areas within blockade include Muldraugh, West Point, Brandenburg, and Fort Knox itself."
This could mean that we'll see Fort Knox added to the map in the future

Could you guys please also mirror the @TheKnoxEvent tweets on Mastodon or on this sever? Twitter's restricting access to only registered users, and I don't want to make an account just for this.

Didn't have that channel in my list, tyvm!

#

We're just playing with the no zombies mod and population multiplier set to real world atm

On another note, I tip my hat to tis and look forward to what's coming in the future especially basements and sandbox ui

gilded skiff
#

i only hope the indie stone team will fix in patch 42 this anyoinng problem with plants or rubble that cant be removed or destroyed with a sleghammer. And yes i know there are mods for this but come on. This bug or texture failure should not exist in the first place. It makes base building in the wild such a headache. I know there are doing there best so i will wait.alarmclock tiredcherrypie

# gilded skiff

if you look closely at this image you can see some new content in the already in game map. There is a weird square next to march ridge and something just south of the rosewood prison

gilded skiff
frail depot
#

I'm very interested in what the weird square is

gilded skiff
#

i mean Crafting, Animals, Hunting and Farming, FPS - Lighting - Tiles improvent, Better Sandbox settings, More stuff like clothes - Hats, New places on the Map, Basemants, New Cars, More Stuff to read, More Lore, More TV Channels, New Jobs to pick in charakter creation and many more stuff. Thats why im so hyped for 42 build

gilded skiff
#

the square next to march ridge

frail depot
#

I'm guessing something military because there doesn't seem to be a road going there

gilded skiff
#

maybe

#

if we are lucky maybe we will see this in the end of 2023

i hope for first week december!!

seems performance portion of the update is going swimmingly

now the real question is will it drop summer or winter?

Ekron seems to be the size of the standard four towns

#

Maybe a new spawnpoint?

#

And I think this update will add Brandenburg

#

So all that's left to add.now would be Ft Knox

#

IIRC devs plan to add it alongside soldiers

Hey Devs, i'm very happy with the upcoming rendering update, One question here, would it be possible to implement a solar cycle? I mean, put in a shadow system for trees, buildings and the like? I would love to orient myself about the time of day based on the shadows of objects around me, it would be amazing and realistic.

One thing that I appreciate that most others seem not to is how natural the forested areas look now. It doesn't just hard it to different tree biomes like it does now.

being able to explore more of the country side without it being mostly forest.

sweet cloud
#

Yeah, more countryside is fun

#

Louisville is not very interesting to me

#

I like a bigger town but with some cool rural rusted junk around

pearl pike
#

idk about y’all but i feel like a little less “HRAHH” in the sounds for climbing fences and jumping through windows would help. something more like a little “hyuh” or just a short sigh or a gasp would be better unless you’re super exerted or maybe you have a lot of soreness

#

i feel like that would make the sounds a little less over-the-top, especially considering they’re making the melee sounds less prominent

#

could also tie to strength level, being weaker would make the character gasp louder when climbing things

pale cedar
#

They mentioned that they're adjusting grunts to exertion level, so that the grunts you hear right now will only be heard if you're really exhausted.

It's between Kentucky and Tennessee.

#

Very, very, very far from the game's map, though. So it's not gonna be in-game.

#

Just sit and wait for Fort Knox to drop in the future.

"My first thoughts are with the friends and families of those within the Zone."
Note that he doesn't mention thoughts for the people in the EZ, only their friends/family. Sounds like they're written off as dead already.

#

At what in-game date does the game start, again? Is that gonna be the day we stop seeing #knoxevent?

#

Or will it continue until the media blackout a few weeks after the start of the game?

I wonder about the Raleigh Outbreak

#

Like, was it the same virus but succesfully contained quickly enough that they could hide the true nature of it?

First I’ve ever heard of it

#

Ain’t that North Carolina

grave dagger
#

Yeah

toxic vector

#

There's no lore given about it besides the TV (and now the Knox Event twitter account) saying Dr. Jeff Galbraithe was fired from the CDC after the Raleigh Outbreak
Edit: There's a bit more. It's mentioned on WLBN and NNR Radio. It also might be the disease shown in a home VHS called "Shows", as they mention the "Triangle Area". And Raleigh NC is part of a place called the "Research Triangle"

Hello, devs! it's very cool that you not just working at game, but start to upgrade menu. I have a little feedback.
what you think about to place this blocks a little closer to each other?
the selecting of options will be faster and more convenient if we do not have to run your eyes left and right at each menu point 👀 😉

@grave dagger they shouldnt make the forums impossibly hard to find or they should turn their steam comments back on, and stop unlisting their youtube videos and turning the comments off there too. Its like they are actively avoiding feedback by making it as hard to give as possible. ok rant over
