July 31, 2025Jul 31 G1 map was more dense in landmarks and organic story pieces. You could look into the distance, see something interesting and get curious about exploring there. G2 map has much less of that and it feels much more generic, bland, gamey and uninspired. Not sure if it's fixable in EA but I'm just going to put this out there - you did something very right in G1 and failed to replicate it so far, when it comes to map design.
July 31, 2025Jul 31 I agree, but its also early access so you really can't expect all the content to be in the game and ready to go, even the first one started off bland then turned into a solid game

First, for years I'd been saying how cool a survival crafting game would be for a "Honey, I shrunk the kids" situation so I was very excited for the game. I downloaded it day one and started building my base and exploring. After a couple of bug fixes they released a slightly larger update that changed the layout of the yard slightly. I had built my base on that little rise just above the exit to the kid's carrying case tunnel and after the update, I loaded it up and found half my base had been destroyed and a large footprint was where it was. Now, from a mechanical perspective they had changed the map layout and clearly my save had loaded the new space over the old. However, gameplay wise it felt like someone had stepped on half my base and destroyed it. I was laughing more than I was disappointed. It made the game and world feel alive and it was a lucky experience to work out the way it did. One of my top ten gaming moments just for how well everything worked with each other. So, be patient and get excited to see what changes the park gets. Also if you look at the map, the border of the map is waaaaay bigger than what's currently available.
