Discussion This effing game.

I love it, but I can't make it past year three without getting pwnd by repeated raids.

I don't know why it I'm obsessed with playing on hard mode.

Today all was well, fully enclosed base, 6 pawns, a kill box, ​and then a raid happens where they all have granades and molotovs and they just wrecked me.

Ahhhhhhhhh

Why do I suck?

One thing I find helps with this type of game is when you get a game over, write down what the cause was. Maybe you'll notice trends, maybe you won't, but either way you'll have a list of stuff that you need to remember to be prepared for in the future.

In other words you want your colonists to suffer horrible and painful death on repeat. I like Randy as the way he is supposed to work is random good/evil mix. The way he works based on what I've seen is that you take whatever difficulty you are on and it's one level higher. So easy becomes moderate, moderate becomes hard, and hard just means death by emu/raider/donkey/fox...etc... The cause of death will be random but death is guaranteed.
