It's very replayable and very fun. Personally I think it's ok in single player but infinitely better in multiplayer or in a village. Not even in a "it's better better with friends" way. To me vintage story is very "cottage core" and it really shines the most as a village survivor simulator with voxel graphics. Like having a local butcher and lumberjack and hunter is just cool. Especially when an economy forms and people naturally take up village roles. I really like mods that play into this and define those rolls or functions for society building more.

Class mods, mods that add depth to certain mechanics like animal harvesting or wood gathering to better flesh out that role for the village. Like I wouldn't want to use "in dappled groves" if someone couldn't play a lumberjack or carpenter.

Economy mods and coin mods, mods that allow for better multiplayer communication. That's the kind of thing I find most appealing.
Does multiplayer have the same lore?
Insanity? Chronostorms (or w/e they are called) ? And the waves of baddies?

Yes, in fact I believe some of those things become more intense because they ramp up with population.

There's a YouTuber named RubixRaptor who makes primarily arma videos with his clan. They're silly but I like them, he ran a server and did modded multiplayer vintage story with that same clan and he made 4 videos on it. I'm very fond of them and they probably show some of the stuff you can get up to in the game.
 
My Opinion:
It's Good.

I'm gonna buy it - but I want to try multiplayer with my fellow Kiwis.
Is this possible with a liberated copy?
Asking for a friend.
I remember seeing a setting that implied letting pirated copies join. Didn't touch it at the time, will check it out today.

Goddamn, bravo on all the work! I really do need to get on the server one of these days.

Reached a personal milestone in my single player game. Full set of meteoric plate mail with a matching longsword. Love the sense of progression you get from this game, it took so many steps to make it to this point.

Still can't find the time to hop on again, anything major happen recently?
 
Nothing major, everyone's just focused on building cool stuff now that we're at endgame tech.

Forgot that most focus on leveling up and or exploring the world more.

We'll most likely expand the roads to connect to translocators and build outposts near them.

Everyone got splitter plugs and food is abundant nowadays.

Archive Raid is most likely something that needs to be forced since there is just so much other crap to do.
 
Damn, last I was on I was barely making copper and then dying of starvation because even with the foraging perk my class is garbage.
You need to start up a farm with fruits ,drifters can be captured & tamed so they pick the cotton fruits of the plants.

Fruit Bread gives alot of satiety back and lasts for 3-4 months inside a storage vessel + cellar combo.

Butchering animals for Offals/Blood Sausages only gives you a really quickly pershable single food.

What?! Drifters can be tamed?! What mod is this? I can have a plantation?! Why did no one say anything?

I'm gonna make those little niggas make me a mint julip. I need the mod name.
 
Is anyone running a tailor on the server? Wouldn't mind setting up a flax farm and running a little clothing repair shop if no one else is doing it.

I do not think we got one and ngl having different clothes would be nice.

You don't need to worry much about flax farms since quite a few have their plantations set up and it's November ingame i think.

I have the tailor skill. Name is Richard, if you want something tailored tell me on the server. I'm a bit far off from spawn but shouldn't be too far.
 
Neat, I'll log in this weekend and see how the server is. Is there a shared map? Never done multiplayer VS before.
