Totem poles are now installed at Morion Outpost. Mobs that cross between them die. Its something but the range is limited to the circumference of the TP. Im also assuming this is a new feature.
I happen to like where the animals seem to wonder into the towns, makes it more realistic. But there are some cases where a turret is definitely needed. Just hope it doesn't go overboard.
I agree Softhart, as irritating as they can be at times, the puny little monkies and boars make it feel more 'real', and they aren't much danger to any newcomers either really. It is all other areas around revives where they get a bit bigger and can kill some folks in one shot and set off the die/revive/die/revive cycle for them, which isn't a good first impression. I hope too it is balanced.
