r/SonsOfTheForest

I’ve built a ton of bases this is by far my favorite so far.

I'm done with this game.

Started my save on hard survival, parried my way through mutants and cannibals, really satisfying combat. Explored every bunker/cave and finished the game around day 25-30 while still sleeping in a tarp.

This is the way I would start a new save in The Forest. Getting everything, finishing the game, and starting to take over the island.

I was like, I'm going to make a 3 floor 6 by 5 raid base and cover the surroundings with traps. Then make a main base somewhere else, a storage base, a fishing hut, trying different designs. This was my plan until I was done with the raid base. Not even completing the traps, just finishing the raid base took all the joy I had. Everything that could go wrong went wrong. Kelvin would get stuck inside because his pathfinding could not see the stairs, so I had to change it. I had to demolish half the house to do that and before that, the roof design I wanted to do was not possible, so I had to make something else. After all that work I still had to do the traps and live with an ugly base.

I've paid 15 dollars for the game and played it for 70 hours, I've had a blast with it until I started building, so I've got my money's worth. Still, it's not going to be like The Forest where I played for over 1000+ hours across years. Won't be touching this pile of shit again.

People who loved The Forest, what do you think about Sons of the Forest?

End night, why does the game have the same bugs The Forest has, are you guys lazy or incompetent? Did The Forest not sell millions? Why did you hire the cheapest voice actors you could find on Fiverr for a couple lines of dialogue? What's with the animations?

i was hoping for some tips from some of the diehards specifically from the sequel that will give me a little boost here and there throughout my play through, nothing crazy, but little tricks that will make me say “damn, thank you random redditor”

i have 150ish hours in the first forest so i have good base knowledge of the “the forest”, the sequel has just been on a long awaited bucket list of mine.

(just in case someone says “just explore it on your own!”, i will here and there, but i know what im asking for, this will make it more fun for me haha.)

Guys i guess i found a new bug! If you pick up the bow and either spam it or half-hold it (I'm not sure which) and then fully draw and shoot the arrow it fires multiple arrows. Maybe it's just a bug in my game.(It can be more than 2 but i couldnt do it on camera)

I lost a bunch of progress on what I think is a bug, what do y'all think?

One with the vertical support logs, one without. Just curious if it changed integrity, building opportunities, etc.

What is this weird machinery sound underground in my base? I searched everywhere online for answers but nothing.. maybe its a bug? Its been days tho.

my different kind of fun lol

Was exploring some ideas for my game and accidentally (or not?) Gemini created this.

PS: Mods please allow as the intention is not to post an AI generated image but rather to show how AI accidentally created something beautiful and it reminded me of SOTF

I'm also not sure if there is supposed to be two of them

I thought I'd share some funny moments from my friends and I's recent playthrough of Sons of the Forest. This game can be inadvertently hilarious at times.
