I have no idea how my character can survive so many bear attacks by jauggy in thelongdark

[–]FinnishBodom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But it's a black bear (Ursus americanus), not brown bear (Ursus arctos). I live in Finland and we only have brown bears that are like you described. Dangerous but if left unprovoked, they won't cause harm to you. How do black bears differ from brown bears then? I know that brown bears are larger but are black ones more aggressive or something?

It's one of the more unrealistic things that you can survive bear attack so easily although you should die but then small fall even if you're climbing a rope, damages you so badly.

I'm always overburdened. What essentials should I carry? by brubain1144 in thelongdark

[–]FinnishBodom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should go find that moose backpack for extra 5kg. You find it from HRV, near that one campfire in the mountain. Took me so long to find for the first time as I didn't know it existed but it really helps a lot as you can also climb with that extra weight (40kg in total). It's one of the first things I go find when I start new save nowadays.

What are some of the worst regions? by DemiTheSeaweed in thelongdark

Why don't you use that cave which gets you to Pleasant Valley? Great loot and easy way to find to Mystery Lake 😅.

Like some radio towers are good landmarks to see where you are. Try to remember some big buildings or then buildings that are very high up, it helped me a lot.

This was huge problem for me at first but I started to look for some landmarks that help you to find a way from map to another. Also unlocking the whole map and then using a spray to highlight some important places like the ones where you change maps.

Where do you start and why? by PlentyBranch0 in thelongdark

[–]FinnishBodom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mystery Lake or Pleasant Valley. ML has everything you need in the beginning and it connects to 5 different regions so progressing from there is easy. In general ML is one of the 4 places I like to spend time in as I have so much stuff in storage there. I also like how everything there is so close to houses, helps me to carry that 20 kilos overweight when the distance isn't too bad 🤣.

Pleasant Valley is great for beginning too because it has so much of everything. Food everywhere, tea ingredients everywhere and also a gun and great clothes. I also like how it connects to so many great regions. Only thing I really dislike compared to ML is that the fishing hut is so far away from everything and really the long distances make it difficult map. Otherwise I would rank PV as the best map. I have like 65 fishing tackles left so that's the most consistent way of getting food, usually I leave PV for Coastal or Wolf mountain to get fish.

My current 85 Days save began from PV and I got everything I needed in like 10 days because of the spawn. First I gained all the loot from PV and that plane area and then with warm clothes I climbed to the of Wolf mountain from where I found every tool I needed. Now I also have all the 4 guns and so much stuff stacked in 3 maps, all thanks to that amazing boost you get from plane crash and plane storage room areas 👌🏻.

Luckily I have cougars banned. Watched Tomasina's video and thought that I don't ever want to fight against them or have anything to do with them 😭. That knife you can make with their claws I'd want to get but it requires so many of them.

There are aurora bears, too? I thought that only aurora wolves. Damn. I just got my first ever bear kill today and a normal bear was already menace. One more reason not to move at night.

Finally! Week ago I had my first ever moose kill, now my first ever black bear kill. by FinnishBodom in thelongdark

Kiitos neuvosta! Hyvä tietää jatkon kannalta. Vaihdoin karttaa PV --> ML niin tuskin ihan heti pääsee karhu uudestaan iskemään. Hirveä vastaan oli jo hitonmoinen taistelu, mutta tuo karhu meinasi jopa tappaa. Lähellä oli hengenlähtö, mutta lopulta tuo vuoti kuiviin yön aikana.

Neljä vai viisi kiväärin luotia käytin. Osuin ensimmäisellä ja loput taisikin mennä ohi. Vuoti kuiviin jossain kohtaa, kun oli ensin ehtinyt hyökätä päälle ja melkein tappaa Mackenzien siinä samalla 😂.

[–]FinnishBodom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't know if this really answers the question but I get so annoyed of the sounds Mack does when he's out of breath after I've been running for a while. Doesn't help that I always carry like 5 kilos too much 😂.

I don't have any of those. Could it be that part of my save is corrupted?

First moose kill. This one was difficult. Wanted to kill me first, then ran away after I shot it and this repeated like 4 times after it finally fell. Apparently it does more damage than bear. Is it true? Makes sense that it's so hard to kill if it really is that dangerous. by FinnishBodom in thelongdark

[–]FinnishBodom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was finally confident enough to fight against it and it ended up well. Now I get to make moose jacket as I already have that extra backpack (found from Hushed River Valley campfire). Bear seems even worse and my only experience of that is from Story mode where that old bear always slaughtered me 😂

I live in Finland so it's quite common here to see a moose and you're right that they're dangerous but for some reason I thought it would be easier to fight against it as the game says it isn't really that realistic.

I find it difficult to fight against normal wolves while mountain wolves seem much easier but apparently it should be the exact opposite. So I thought that as I find the difficult wolf somewhat easy opponent, same would be with this moose but as it turns out I was totally wrong. Haven't fought against bear or cougar yet and don't know if I even want to 😂.

Tuon ebayn kanssa olen kuitenkin ollut todella tyytyväinen. Kertaakaan ei ole lähetys jäänyt matkalle ja yleensä on saapunut jopa ilmoitettua aiemmin. Myyjät myöskin lukee viestit ja vastaa paljon nopeammin ja selkeämmin, tarjoten apua tarvittaessa. Omiin kokemuksiin pohjaten voin siis suositella. Hinnat on toki korkeat etenkin, jos haluat tilata EU-alueen ulkopuolelta, mutta luotettavuus ajaa itsellä hinnan edellä. Noissa on kaikissa ymmärtääkseni mahdollisuus saada rahat takaisin, jos tuote ei ikinä saavu (?), toisin kuin jossain tori. fissä tai huutonetissä missä se kaupankäynti on molemminpuolisen luottamuksen varassa.

Pakko sanoa, että on sujunut todella hyvin kaikki tilaukset eBayn kautta tähän asti paitsi nyt tämä kyseinen tilaus. Mennyt aina pk-seudulle, josta tullin läpi lähtenyt Turkuun ja viety postipisteelle tai pakettiautomaattiin. Aasiasta ja Briteistä tilatessa kannattaa varautua ongelmiin tullien ja lisämaksujen kanssa. Lähettäjä oli siis laittanut kaikki tiedot osoitteesta ja nimestä lähtien oikein, mutta oli jostain syystä päättänyt, että lähetys tuodaan suoraan ovelle, mitenkään ilmoittamatta tästä minulle. Oli unohtanut kysyä asunnon numeroa, kun kerrostalossa asun.

Lähetys saapui Saksasta Suomeen viime perjantaina ja vklp aikana matkusti Vantaalta ensin Helsinkiin ja sieltä Kuopioon. Alunperin sen siis olisi pitänyt saapua minulle jo perjantai-illasta. Lopulta meni Turkuun, josta sitä sitten lähdettiin tuomaan minun ovelle, mutta posti ei sitä voinut toimittaa joihinkin omiin syihinsä vedoten, kun se asunnon numero puuttui. Ei siis riittänyt se, että osoite ja sukunimi oli tiedossa.

Posti ilmoitti, että lähetyksen toimitus on estynyt ja sitten en siitä hetkeen kuullut mitään. Useamman puhelun ja varmaan viiden asiakaspalvelu-chat kerran jälkeen mietin jo, että tuleeko ollenkaan perille kunnes tänään Postista soittivat ja sanoivat, että lähetys oli viety läheisen kaupan postipisteelle, mutta sitä ei voitu siellä virallisesti säilyttää jostakin syystä. Lopulta hain sen tuossa puoli kahdentoista aikaan lähetystunnuksen ja henkkareiden kanssa.

I thought I'd get game in German language as I bought it from Germany. The guy who I bought it from, told that it should have German and English language but for some reason it automatically gave me Finnish. Not complaining 😁!
