To much need for energy with little way to gain it; it needs to go

[Trenith]

In my first day of playing I have learned I need energy for my NVG's and for building; my nvg's I loose energy at 5e:10seconds but my only means to gain energy is via sitting in a vehicle or a small energy pack?

 

What is the purpose of energy other then an additional fatigue system? What logic says that I need to sit in a car for awhile before I can use my NVGs or be able to put up a wall especially in servers where the spawn for vehicles is ridiculously low and without restocking merchants to just buy me a vehicle if I need something to sit in so I can "build my base".

 

Without further information on the energy system then what I have learned so far from quartz chat then I for one am defiantly willing to say the energy system should just be scrapped. Their is no need for it.

looks like what i said is coming up in a future patch lol

Hi,

 

If you followed Axles stream you should know that the fact you have to seat in a car to replenish your energy is only a proof of concept =) They are gonna to work on it

and now you can stand within 30m of a tolar tower/wind turbine and get energy in the coming soon patch

you do realize one of the features in the next patch solves this??? you will gain energy when near the solar panels and when near the windmill. Don't forget its still work in progress things are changing all the time.

The ability to store energy would be good. Batteries etc.
