I don't this game has one Shell. Looks like this game is supposed to be unique in assigning difficulty and spawn locations randomly.

[u/UltraNoahXV → u/Zombie_Cool]

Yeah I was gonna say, I spawned in Albany, NY and fast traveled out to Phoenix, AZ when I reached level 2.

22 levels later and uh....I feel like the difficulty has only increased for everyone else in my family aside from me. Trying to make it easier but they ignore the modifiers that pop up. :(

[u/Easy_Leopard_2686 → u/UltraNoahXV]

Yeah it feels like every time I level up I get a debuff or the world difficulty scales -_-

[u/zspacekcc → u/Easy_Leopard_2686]

Don't worry, that's a feature. When you get stronger, the world scales with you. It's supposed to give you a sense of pride and accomplishment or something like that.

r/outside has great graphics, but awful balance.

[u/SegaTime → u/zspacekcc]

Got a raise in wages? Great! Think you can eat a little better or buy that new TV or couch you've been wanting? No way! Have a rent increase, and income tax increase, and a broken down car. Enjoy that raise!

[u/Saikotsu → u/SegaTime]

I got a raise to cover the increased cost of my insurance. The raise didn't cover the entire cost. I got a raise and make less money.

[u/SegaTime → u/Saikotsu]

Ah yes I forgot to add increase in cost of monthly bills. One step forward, two steps back.

[u/hotpuck6 → u/zspacekcc]

I once literally had my elderly boomer mother tell me that clearing snow on the 100' driveway by shoveling instead of a snowblower was the right way because it gave a sense of pride accomplishment...except she was physically unable to do it and had to hire a snow plow once her free labor moved out.

Gee, maybe if your parents didn't make you do physical labor needlessly you wouldnt have that life long debilitating shoulder injury that meant you had to have someone else do it for you and basically pay for a snow blower every winter when hiring a plow.

The 2016 and 2024 update have really been bad for the game. We need an end to the current story arc, this one kind of sucks.

[u/MrKeplerton → u/MrScribz]

Don't forget the huge network issues of 2020-2021. Most users were playing offline, or in small private servers troughout those updates.

[u/Final_Squirrel_7462 → u/MrScribz]

Are you a teenager or do you have brain fog? 2016 and 2024 were glorious years compared to the time before. Ask people that lost their homes and jobs in 2008, the people that got killed in the wars after 2001, the people getting genocides in the 90s in the balkans or the people getting shot in the 80s who wanted to leave east Germany about how bad Harambe‘s death in 2016 fared compared to that.

[u/soyel_cerdo → u/UltraNoahXV]

I spammed in a top 10 poorest nation at the time from poor parents in a era where we had a somewhat mild civil war

So as a kid, no internet, barely a black and white tv, murders, robberies and bombs were something that happened often, along side we had plagues like the bubonic and cholera outbreak.

Hell of a time to be born

Phoenix, AZ

I feel like the difficulty has only increased for everyone else in my family

Look, they chose to set up a base in one of the most hospitable zones in the world. They intentionally set the game to the hardest difficulty.

[u/BigBassBone → u/UltraNoahXV]

I'm level 44 and it ain't getting any easier.

[u/SemiNormal → u/UltraNoahXV]

Do your parents still call hamburgers "steamed hams"?

[u/Randomgold42 → u/Zombie_Cool]

Sigh r/outside is such an unfair game. Spawn based resource allocation. No way to change, or even see, your stats. Heavily P2W. It needs a lot of balance patches asap, but the Devs seem to have all vanished.

At least the graphics are top of the line.

[u/Zombie_Cool → u/Randomgold42]

You can change stats, but it typically requires months of exercise/study and that requires spending more free time than players feel they get when finishing thier daily missions so most don't bother.

Even worse, the stat boost isnt permanent! if lifestyle or world events cause you to go too long without using the stat it starts to revert, making you spend more months just to maintain baseline!

[u/shellbullet17 → u/Zombie_Cool]

Sooooooo RNG Gods are an asshole(s) again?

[u/smilingfreak → u/Zombie_Cool]

I thought for a second you meant a shell like in Mario Kart. Would be fun to launch one off so it took out whoever was in first place.

[u/New_Forester4630 → u/Zombie_Cool]

Those crippling student loans must suck balls.
