Cardzy Posted December 12, 2023 Report Posted December 12, 2023 Ok, have like 150 hours in and loved my time in the game, but I think I am done. Created a new world found an open, what appears to be a plains area near water to build a home, get half way done building a decently nice house and I guess I am too close to a forest behind the house as wolves are constantly howling. Ok, np, I go kill them. More howling.... go kill them... more howling... go search for an hour real time and finally find them and kill them. ahh, finally silence. go back to building my home. Howling.... GRRR Spend the next 3 hours real time searching for the damned wolves howling. Of course when I am hunting them they only howl every 3-5 minutes to give me some kind of indication of their direction, but the second I start building they howl every damned 30 seconds. I cannot find the damned wolves and I'm ready to pull my hair out and put my fist through the monitor. I don't care that they are aggressive, I don't care that there are a billion of them it seems, and I don't care that they are near my home. BUT they need to SHUT THE F*** UP! The G** Damned howling has drove me mad and I am now ready to murder someone or something at this point. I am SO over it. Seriously, give us more sound options, they are very limited. Let us adjust animal sounds or something. Or at least let the commands I can find to kill everything except players actually work instead of telling me to pick a subcommand that doesn't work. Give me anything to shut those damned wolves the hell up already. OMG someone shoot me and put me out of my damned misery. 1 2

Thank you so much for this recommendation and not just going off on me for my bad attitude. LOL You are truly appreciated. You have saved my sanity and saved my world.

Big Shasta Posted December 13, 2023 Report Posted December 13, 2023 I want to just agree with ya Cardzy, I mentioned the need for "voice volume" Audio Settings in a previous thread, for creatures and players alike - specifically for these types of reasons. The sounds of the aggressive mobs in this game can be overwhelming at times. AND ... Very frustrating!
Michael Gates Posted December 18, 2023 Report Posted December 18, 2023 Been there, done that. I once had a house where I killed about 200 wolves over the course of about a game year. Had about fifteen pit traps in the woods, every day I'd go and kill two or three more wolves that had fallen in. Also a bear spawn point, luckily that was a build from before bears could climb out of deep holes. It's funny, but it got old after a while. In that case, the wolves were very much bound to that particular area. I went south about a thousand squares, and they did not follow. It's almost a shame, I got very good at digging the pit traps.
Rhyagelle Posted December 18, 2023 Report Posted December 18, 2023 I can understand the frustration. Not only is the constant barage of wolf and bear sounds absolutely aggravating, but the spawn rate for them is absolutely ridiculous, too! I have had packs of 30 wolves appear 7 in game days after eradicating the last. The same with bears, but obviously like 7-10 at a time. They need to give us volume control for creatures/mobs as well as adjust the damn spawn rate!
