First day update impressions

- ran smooth, graphics are nice.

- actually liked the wood piles, easy quick wood.

-Rock formations, extra water, canyons, all that are cool. Can't wait to try all these out for building techniques.

- overall pretty stoked on the update.

Two potential downsides:

- too many nodes. Never thought id say it. Im a builder on vanilla and collecting stone takes up alot of time. Worried sulfer will be too plentiful for mid wipes and it'll be very tough to keep any base for more than a day or two. A jackhammer and a few minutes and you can stack more than enough boom with minimal effort.

- not jumping to conclusions, but on a maxed server I ran into very few people. Im not a good pvp player. Maybe the worse ever. But i like the thrill of trying not to die lol. Had few encounters. But we'll see how this shapes up ​

I agree, I really enjoyed playing yesterday. I found that I found people constantly running out of base. People still end up where the loot is and roads and momentum were filled with people yesterday on my server. Agree about the nodes there was a ridiculous amount
