All vehicles are potentially usable. We want vehicles to really have a meaning. They won't be hard to come by, but you might have a problem getting any of them to run. We have planned and implemented an extensive parts list for anything on wheels. Vehicles can also be used as mobile camps carrying all of your goods in their trunks or truck beds. Leaving your fully-stocked car in the wild, unlocked, would be a terrible idea. Removing a part or two should keep it pretty safe. So you found a nice pile of old barn wood? That'd be great to use when boarding up all those doors and windows back home. You can't stick ten planks into a backpack, right? But you can fit plenty into the bed of a truck or the trunk of a car. Vehicles will be worth their weight in gold in our world so make sure that you take care of yours.
Another aspect of the game that we have included is extensive item combining and crafting.
[h=1]During the day[/h]
We would like realism to be maintained here. If a player doesn't eat for a few hours, he won't die, but will become sluggish. Death from starvation should take a number of days at minimum. We want hunting/trapping and foraging to not just be a chore but a real benefit to the player. A weak under fed traveller will be sluggish slow to action unable to carry a decent amount of weight. The opposite being true also, a traveller with a high calorie diet will move faster, aim better, carry more weight etc.
Our island is set in a colder climate and the game features a fully dynamic weather system. The summer months are warmer and stormy while the winter months are harsh and much colder. Keeping your body temperature up will be necessary.
An important aspect of any multiplayer game is leader boards, achievements and leveling your character in order to move up in rank. Survive the most nights to gain server wide rep. Level your character to better your skills.
Weapons will be found and made. Finding weapons shouldn't be an impossible task you're in the middle of the country side where everyone owns a gun. Something we've already had some success working with is using most items as weapons. You'll be hard pressed to find yourself in a situation where you can't defend your life with a weapon of some type.
Tools and machinery can be used for many things. You'll need certain tools to fortify homes and buildings, certain machinery to power homes or access water supplies. Being able to place window fortifications and securing buildings quickly could be the difference between life and a very bloody death.
