Hello! It's Early Access! Have you heard about it? If you complain for lack of content, then do not buy early access game... Simple.

Inclined :)

Declined :D

Its fine solo. The only thing that really benefits from a team is still doable solo and a minor part of the game, and that is cart/boat efforts work better with friends.

I played 250hrs on a server with 2 other solo players. Occasionally we met up to boss fight. One of the players and I teamed up a bit to share farmed resources, but for the most part I've played about..

Solo is great an relaxing, but I find it gets a bit lonely so i like to have tv/a podcast going on in the background. otherwise I absolutely love it.

It's totally doable solo, that's what I did and had a great time, but after 200 hours and no updates I fell off months ago.

Don't know how far I'll get, but I'm soloing it'. Taking my time and enjoying the trip. Currently just defeated the elder and am starting in attacking the swamp. Only a very small swamp on this island..

Jump more. Seriously.

did you type in the -console before you started the game?Is steam being used to launch the game?

does it have an actual roof? floors are not roofs, floors do not protect from weather damage or count as roofs for shelter.

Does your house have a roof? Look up... I don't think floors work as roofs, you have to use the "roof" build items and place them above the workstation

You can totally play it by yourself but everything takes tremendously longer with only a single person.Enemies do have less HP when solo (+40% per additional player) but you will also not be able to p..

BTW, don't waste time on bronze on armor. Troll armor offers almost the same protection without slowing you down and doesn't require the copper/tin heavy grind. It makes the early game a lot less of a..

Jump on a tall boulder and shoot them with your bow. Use terrain to your advantage.

Thanks for the help everyone.

You gear up and kill them in 2-3 hits with level appropriate weapons. Brute should be dodged, shaman focused down first. Start in with the bow if possible, fire arrows do wonders against tree people.M..

Sounds to me like Odin was watching you try and ham his afterlife and punished you for the insult RIP Pro Tip: Don't use exploits and expect your game to not screw out in other ways.

to prevent this just store all iron in the ship box and transport everything else by portals. a longship has more than enough space to offset the travel time if you completly fill it

No, solo is a miserable hell, hence why I have nearly 200 hours solo. Self loathing.Solo is completely fine. I find it relaxing because I can go at my own pace and have no ones terrible eyesores excus..

Game difficulty is balanced well for solo play. No worries, you may need to play a bit more carefully because no one is there to cover for you, but it isn't like Remnant where things like the boss agr..

All my friends suck a$$ so I've only played solo. It's great fun, but I'd imagine it gets way better in a group

I'm sorry that happened to you. I'm surprised that you were already off to fight Bonemass but hadn't built a Longboat yet. Did you unlock it? You need to craft iron nails and then it will unlock for y..

this is why i dont mod. Ill always be vanilla, mods are just an accident waiting to happen. No offense.

Originally posted by F*cky The Drunk-Clown:Gaming 101, disable mods when problems arise. especially after a patch. With the sole exception of the VR mod, I actually did do that.

Parry everything you can

Definitely, after more than 1k hours put into it, I'd estimate maybe 35-40% of those hours were with a friend or two, and most of my 'wow' moments happened on my own when I was free to build and explo..

played it completely solo your all good

Anyway, if something get's destroyed all the resources spent on that will remain nearby. So it's no such a big problem.
