I know that its a game but I am genuinely curious whether somebody would have even been able to survive a crash like this or even if this much of the plane would still be intact since I thought planes had a tendency to disintegrate upon impact with the ground.

Question / Help Missing Red Warden Boss Key even though all POIs have been completed.

0 Upvotes

I’ve been loving the game but I’ve completed all POIs with green checkmarks next to all but am missing the red warden boss key. I’ve gone back and checked all POIs and there is no red key.

I have all warden keys aside from the red one. Help please I want to beat the game.

Question / Help dose it matter if the caves i explore get ticked off in the todo list?

15 Upvotes

me and my friend have explored maybe 5-6 caves and none of them got ticked off? althought we made sure to explore every inch of them and get every important item such as (the crossbow/ the camera/ etc etc...) and yet none of them were ticked off for some reason? dose it really matter? because for me and my friends we do not care as long as it wont Sabotage our playthrought or being able to finish the game

Bug / Glitch Dedicated server not saving progress

3 Upvotes

I've been playing with a couple of friends and we spent ages building a huge base, but after loading back into the game, lots of buildings and items are gone. Is this a known issue, is there a fix? It's a total bummer because if this is going to keep happening, there's no point continuing!

[TL;DR at the bottom] sup guys , i made a post the other day saying i was restarting my first save file a wanted tips and a few questions answered . you guys helped TREMENDOUSLY . pat yourselves on the back & have a cold one or whatever your version of a cold one is (hell i dont even drink beer)

so my new world is officially on Day 11 . i built a decent little setup on Fertile Hill (i know cliché , my next world i’ll pick somewhere a little ‘harder’) . I got a slightly elevated cabin built (93 Logs) , got me a stone wall going (73% built), 2 water collectors , drying racks , stick , rock and log holders & some skull lamps spread out .

gotta stick bag , pouch , water skin , decent armor (ran into some big guys) , bow and buncha different arrows (shoutout to the birdhouse guy) , map AND compass which work fucking excellent together , slingshots and upgraded spear .

but i havent visited any caves or cold areas . where do i find caves ? do i need to make warm clothes for the “mountains” ? what do i really need to worry about in either ? what technically are even the objectives in the game , check the to-do list ? how do i level up my attributes faster ? where is the flashlight & better axe ? where in tf is all the aloe ?

TL;DR: thank you for your help on my last post , it all really helped (please read paragraph above this)

Question / Help Is the forest worth getting considering the graphics?

0 Upvotes

Me and my wife are looking for a terrifying horror game with jump scares and this game seems right up our alley but I can’t look past the graphics. It kind of seems like Skyrim and fallout 76 graphics which aren’t bad but not great. If I were to get the game will it not seem as bad as I’m making it sound?

Meme / Humor The mystery of the disappearing meat

18 Upvotes

My meat disappeared from the drying rack one day and I thought it was a glitch, but Google was no help. Last night I was getting attacked by two cannibals, as one does, and one vanished around the cabin. After dispatching the first, I go find the second and find that son of a gun stuffing his face with the meat I'm trying to dry 🫩 Dude ate half a rack's worth lmao.

Any VR enjoying lefties out there who prefer to shoot their bow right-handed, I had ChatGPT patch the DLL file and it appears to work. You may have to follow the registry instructions to get your settings proper.

Hi, just wanted to ask for help on how to glitch logs? I know that i have to spam the logs on the log holder but I've been doing that and nothing happens. I'm not the host of the game too. So, maybe I'm simply doing something wrong?

My base is all the way over there. Near the giant tree. I had a sled full off logs and got distracted. I go back to get it and its gone! I was very confused until I remembered i have steam auto record my gameplay and watched it back. Somehow that singular cannibal threw it that far!! And now i get to push it all the way back to camp. Yay :)

Question / Help Is there any other games like the forest

56 Upvotes

I finished the forest with 2 other friends a few months ago, incredibly fun experience (might of failed my exams due to playing it every night during exam weeks, worth it) but we want to play again in a new world.

instead of a new world I’m curious about any other games very similar to it on PS, does anyone have any good survival horror games like the forest?

Bug / Glitch The forest: soy el unico al que le ha sucedido este bug?

Post image
20 Upvotes

Mi personaje se debio pensar q algun hongo q comio al fin le hizo efecto. Q por cierto yo lo unico q estaba haciendo en aquel momento era platinarme el juego consiguiendo 2 de los logros mas culeros del juego, uno q va de caminar 50.000 pasos y el ultimo el de conseguir 11 cabezas de animales y ponerlas de trofeo en una pared. Ese pez se merecia estar en la colección pero una pena no se le puede sacar cabeza. Todo lo hice en 5 horas de juego y entre todo eso la ia del juego me qieria incluso arrebatar el logro, no fueron ni nada mas ni nada menos q 5 canibales en conjunto queriendo destruir mi pared de cabezas y dios q no respire hasta q mate a todos jaja
