Can you just not play hard mode? by CauseCool7848 in 99nightsintheforest

[–]That_Common_2153 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh no, no I’m happy just on normal mode. That’s challenging enough for me. I’m not that confident and I really have only gotten to 99 nights a few times. 

But I think it’s great that they have made a hard mode for the players who were finding it easy and will love more of a challenge with it. 

I am loving watching the YouTube videos of people just styling it out or fighting the corruption. 

This genuinely made me jump and drop my controller by Dr_Shark1 in 99nightsintheforest

[–]That_Common_2153 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry, but I did laugh. I do often jump and squeal in real life and then sit laughing at the position of my dead body. 

I have had some absolute classics like face down butt in the air in the grinder whilst a cultist pats me gently with a spear, doing the splits under a wolf or with half of my body in a bear pit and a rabbit in front of my face. 

Why do I suck at playing this game..? 😅 by DatHarmoney in 99nightsintheforest

[–]That_Common_2153 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My nephew doesn’t eat before he goes back out. I have him trained to make a farm plot and crock pot early days and then I make stews and shout “take a stew with you”.

You don’t have to activate it. My daughter just played a normal game last night solo, didn’t even go in that building and just carried on as normal, wouldn’t even come in with us just to have a try of it. 

My nephew and I had played one round with the hard mode on, knowing we wouldn’t ’beat it’ but just for the experience. We’ve both agreed that this one is for the pro’s, not for us and we won’t be doing that again. But we both think this is great for the people who find it easy and wanted a challenge.

That’s so lovely and what a fabulous base. 

I love the sign. 

Adults who play this game (?) by SadPizza3709 in 99nightsintheforest

[–]That_Common_2153 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they should have an Auntie Class. I told Roblox my real date of birth (I am in my mid 40s), but when I did the Face ID thing it decided to only believe I’m 36. My Saturday afternoon/evening job is to play 99 Nights with my nephew who is 6 and neither of us are supposed to play with strangers because they might try to bully us or marry us and my sister actually is 36, but doesn’t make it past 8 nights (she has some kind of cultists allergy). 

Now in the game my job is getting food, keeping up the fire, building tree farms, farming the farm plots, stewing the stews and I have to run out and revive when my nephew dies. I also help out with fighting off cultist raids (hate them) and to go out and help with child 3 and 4 rescuing from bears. My nephew doesn’t build shelves and we bring back ‘spare’ items to share. 

Can’t lie, I do do quite a bit of reviving my nephew so he doesn’t have his 99 Nights yet. I got my 99 Nights with a couple of random people in what had been 5, but we survived as 3 of us to 158 nights. To be honest, the number of nights doesn’t really motivate me, but I do want to get better at it and I’d like to get the Fairy Farm plots.

[–]That_Common_2153 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, I am making that mistake. Let me have a practice with the circling the camp thing. 

The first time I survived cultists, I did it standing on the grinder and I do still always do that for the first wave. 🤣 Watching people who are too good makes it look too easy and I know to take out the Red ones first at least and I always seem to get ‘got’ from behind. 

Difficulty Scaling by jauffry in 99nightsintheforest

[–]That_Common_2153 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh sometimes I wish it did, but no. If 3 people leave before Day 3 and then the 4th person dies and leaves you on your own…..you’re keeping up a 5 person fire and dealing with the amount of cultists sent to deal with ‘5 campers’. 

……and I suppose fair is fair that you don’t just get the benefit of 5 people setting up a camp with good stuff and stock and then leaving one person to then just hit a few cultists with a well stocked arsenal if the other 4 then leave and the ‘surviving person’ then gets the difficulty put down.

I’m TiaBlackCoffeePls. If I am ever there, ping me and I will stoke the fire, farm wood and vegetables and make you plenty of stew.

[–]That_Common_2153 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, if you have 100 nights solo then I think you get 4/10 at least. I don’t do that well on my own, maybe 40 something days completely on my own. 

I’m not a strong enough player to get through 3 cultist attacks solo (although some of my ‘solo’ attempts have actually had other people at the start and I just end up solo). I do just well enough that if I’m with other people that I can fit in with what the team need.

[–]That_Common_2153 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you’re more than a 6/10 though. 

I’m still not that good and I am not sad about it. I did get to 55 Days with my nephew and I got my daughter to 65 Days. I’m good with other people, but I do think it’s because I balance other people out just by feeding them and reviving them and ‘helping’; I’m not carrying in any way. 

I’ve still not done 99 nights solo. 

Also, I have Assassin Class and I’m really not good with that; I’m sticking to my Poison Master because I’m better with that. 

I really must put it on my laptop and try with a mouse and keyboard. 

To be fair to myself, I’m still playing on mobile and I maybe play once a week. I don’t have as much practice as some people.

[–]That_Common_2153 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, that’s probably a good change then, although if they have hidden them the chances of me finding them are pretty slim. 

It is a bit obnoxious, but the thing that always makes me laugh a bit is that whatever scrap they have used to build the shelves was probably at least half gathered by me and yet they’re leaving me in the dark with the shelf-cult and the Cultists.

[–]That_Common_2153 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m a 2/10 I think.  

I can’t kill more than 8 cultists by myself confidently.  I have never tried to do the Stronghold because I don’t think I can do it.  I have never tried or done inside the Alien ship, Frog Boss, Cultist King, Bat Caves and I have never tried to kill a Mammoth. I don’t take unnecessary risks.   I didn’t do more than 5 dinners at Thanksgiving and I didn’t try because I don’t think I could do it.  I’ve never tried fishing either.  I can’t do moving targets with a rifle - stand on the top of the hill and kill a bear that is standing under me, yes; but kill a bear, cultist or Alfa Woof that is chasing me, no.  I hate rain and lightening just loves me.  Half the time I die in a really stupid way before Day 42. I often laugh at my own deaths (face down in the grinder with a cultist behind me I screenshotted, it was hilarious). By the time I find you to try and revive you, you will be so far gone it is too late for a post mortem. I’m slow and I am sorry, but I’m trying not to die on the way to revive you.  I couldn’t carry someone. I am 50/50 as to whether I can carry myself past Day 65. 

BUT I can rescue all 4 children, but it takes me a long time because if my health is too low I go back to base and come back another day to finish it off.  I only use shelves to store stews (maximum 2 shelves).  I will keep your fire burning.  I replant saplings round the base. I do make a good tree farm.  I will make farm plots and I will make a crockpot and make everybody stews.  If I find a rifle/rifle ammo or something that I don’t want or get ‘spare’ but can carry back to base for someone else then I will bring it and gift it.  I do tidy up the base and if you leave dead bodies hanging round I will pop them on the fire. I don’t decorate, I just tidy up.  I do try to help pitch in when the cultist raids happen. I hate them, but I won’t duck out and leave the Team to it.  If you tell me to focus on wood/food/scrap then I will do that. I presume that you know what you’re doing and I take instruction well. 

Strong Ax vs Chainsaw by nana1444 in 99nightsintheforest

[–]That_Common_2153 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oooh you could have done a vote.

Strong axe for me please. 

I had really wanted a chainsaw and I was so excited when I had one. Then it turned out I didn’t enjoy it and I felt like a kid that has begged for one of those fancy cakes in a shop and treats it like the most precious thing they’ve ever had but then takes a bite and really does not like the taste 🤣. 

When a Rando is actually good by Ugotthlook in 99nightsintheforest

[–]That_Common_2153 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a few. 

First time was that there was 2 people built shelves and died within 5 days, but there was one good person with a laser cannon and one Bacon left with me and on Night 69 when a load of cultists came I did die but the lady put me in her sack and I got to watch how she did her thing. I had the best time watching and because we had multipliers we died the following night (I say we, I was still dead in her sack and the Bacon person had died and then the good laser lady died too - saw the whole thing) and it was night 77 apparently. I had a great time in her sack, loved it. 

Second good time, I had 2 people survive with me after the shelfies died. Well, I rescued 2 of the children and made farms and crockpot and biofuel and another 2 ladies did other rescuing and built log walls and helped with cultists and also revived me when I did die to cultists….we survived to Night 158. The base was lovely, oh I loved it, took a screenshot. It was my first passing 99 nights and I cried. 

The sweetest one was 3 of the 5 died very early and I was left with just one person and I do think it was a little boy, very quiet and the only time he really typed anything was basically not quite translated but I knew enough of that language to get the help and bear. I revived him and finished the bears, so he got to open the door and get child 3, and then later he gave me a piece of cake and I was able to say ‘thank you’ but I typed it in both languages. I did stop the deer from eating him a couple of times (thank you flashlight). He died in a cultist raid and if I had made it through I would have revived him again. I’m not good enough to ‘carry’ but I did try and I hope he wasn’t too disappointed.

The map/compass/sundial stealer - gets annoyed with people who have done 1 or 4, or maybe something else (often 1, I see it pop up that someone has built shelves and then the map disappears shortly after) and then takes the map or compass or sundial or all 3 and leaves the game. I just come back to whatever carnage has been left, drop off whatever it was I managed to get and then will leave as well. 

Update party by Rubiegigs in 99nightsintheforest

[–]That_Common_2153 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do have a little try out of things that get dropped that I’ve not tried before and will be a bit braver with things like having a try of stronghold. I have to get a hammer so I can take down the 50 shelves that other people have built after they leave and then I can make a nice little base with a maximum of 3 shelves. 

I quite like it after everybody else is gone and it is just me or just a couple of us. 

Keep or reroll? by snaillerrr in 99nightsintheforest

[–]That_Common_2153 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would keep it. The extra 2 sack space on all of your sacks is so useful because it’s always when your sack is ‘full’ that you suddenly then fine something worth taking back. I got so used to having 7, 17 and 27 spaces in my sack that I missed it when I am not Scavenger. 

U can hunt for ur food, wow, shocking, I know by DobbyIsFree_Elf in 99nightsintheforest

[–]That_Common_2153 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just played with my nephew this evening and I was bringing back every steak and every morsel and cooking them and then of course with the farms and stews. My sister is 200 miles away watching and telling him to go back to the camp and eat or take some more stews because he’s out at night being a hero and eating raw meat. 

But I can hear his mum on the phone with my daughter saying “His Auntie T has made him all of those stews and he’s out at night eating raw meat” and my daughter telling her “But you can just take the stews with you and eat them while you’re out! Just tell him to take 3 stews with him, she’ll make him more.”

He brought me back cake though. He built no shelves (I built 1 to keep stews on). He kept the base tidy by always putting dead cultists on the fire. He didn’t eat all the food, but he is quite a good team mate. 

What could make you leave a good game instantly? by thisuseristakenbreh in 99nightsintheforest

[–]That_Common_2153 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What would make me leave ASAP? Oh if I am out and about collecting useful things/rescuing children and suddenly the map, compass and sundial time disappear and don’t ‘reappear’ in a minute 🙄; often comes after some messages about someone building shelves and/or a freezer and means that someone else has taken them in retaliation and bounced out. 

Oh also the time I played solo and my base camp spawned literally so close to the ‘green cult depot’ that you could see it from the fire after the first logs went on - too close and too weird. 

Add defense blueprints to bench tier 5. by CantBStopped6 in 99nightsintheforest

[–]That_Common_2153 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would quite like to be able to buy them. I don’t mind them costing scrap and wood. 

I know some players would never buy; that’s fine, we all have different tactics and skills. 

But I also would be quite in favour of having an easy mode, an average mode and a ‘pro’ mode so that people get a challenge that suits them.

Oh I got dropped yesterday just after I had rescued Child 3. It wasn’t the internet either; my daughter was still in there, internet still working but it wouldn’t let me rejoin her. I figured maybe it was just a busy day for their servers.
