Back in 2.0 the Sledgehammer was a powerful melee weapon which was probably one of the strongest to find below Katana.
At the moment it’s a weak and slow weapon. If you didn’t know, it is statistically identical to the bloody Canadian tool called a hockey stick but the thing is that the Sledgehammer has worse durability and object damage, nothing else. Maybe there’s some Canadian bias going on
I didn’t put this post in suggestion cause it’s just sad, and no one cares about filler weapons (or anything that isn’t a military knife or similar).
Supposed tools and items you’d think would have additional utility like Hammers, Pocketknives, Kitchen Knives, Butcher Knives, and Frying Pans do not whatsoever
Adrenaline, and Morphine to a degree
Canteens and the entire clean/dirty water mechanic to begin with
In addition to this, Rain Barrels being empty and only full when storms end, not to mention how little hydration it actually provides and the fact that you can’t drink straight out of it
Blindfolds, though this isn’t as much of an issue ever since the crafting UI update
A majority of food items are straight one-ups over each other
The Hockey Mask is one of the only clothing items in the game that has absolutely zero armor rating despite being designed to protect your face. Why? Because it was added before armor was properly implemented during the Canada days.
On top of this it’s still in the game but an item that no longer spawns to my knowledge (unless it’s still findable in Montague).
Make the Hockey Mask great again Nelson pls
(On a bonus note, I can’t believe I forgot to bring up the single most forgotten item in Unturned. No, not the Stereo, or the Wall Clock - but Frames. Large or small, birch or maple or pine, they are literally useless)
Frames have their uses if you want to have a Natural location (Like a cave) all to yourself. But besides that they are pretty useless. Especially now that Hawaii is gone, and soon Germany, the only maps with caves.
You’re thinking of Doorframes and Garageframes, which are actually quite useful in freeform building.
That, however, is not the same as this. Literally a freeform square large enough for players to pass through, and only existing in wood, therefore vulnerable to all attacks. Windows and doors cannot be placed in them, so essentially, they are literally wooden plates with holes where the middle part is. In other words, useful for absolutely nothing.
It’s so useless that despite being one of the earliest types of freeform buildables, it is hands down the most forgotten set of items in the game.
What were they originally for? I’ve crafted them before thinking windows would work in them but the only reason I saw to have them afterwards was for areas where you could quickly drop through.
I remember placing some arrangement of frames and sandbags that completely concealed a player standing on the ground inside, and provided just enough of an opening to shoot through when standing atop the inner layer of sandbags, but I don’t remember exactly how I placed them.
