should I keep rocking survival mode
To be completely honest, I both love and dislike survival mode at once. The fact you can't see your *level* for dehydration, or food, or tiredeness is part of that, but also yeah it makes the game hardcore; a single randomly placed headshot from a random bot will kill you. It definitely adds more of the vibe I always wanted from fallout to the game, but it doesn't make sense that I can shoot a hooligan three times in the head with the same gun he has and then he just kills me with one shot. I think "survival" mode in games needs to not just "make it harder" but extend realism, if I shoot a hooligan in the head and they take a bit of damage and shoot me in the head right after and kill me from full health, that's not good balancing. Curious to hear what people have to say about enemy balancing here.
