Sons of the Forest is constantly expanding. What changes are likely to appear in the next update? Players have high expectations.
The creators of Sons of the Forest still have a lot of work to do if they want their popular game to come out of Early Access in the best possible condition. Recently, the game received an update, which not only fixed some bugs, but also introduced additional elements. However, the community around the title wants more and spams Reddit with ideas for what Endnight Games should feature in the future. It’s quite possible that some of these ideas will find their way into the game, as it turns out the developers are eager to hear the voices of players.
Remove armor from cannibals
Welcome to the Forest Fashion Show!
In Sons of the Forest we can make armor using, among other things, leaves, bones or fabrics extracted from mutants. This last type of protection is also prized by some of the cannibals that inhabit the island. Unfortunately, after defeating them his armor cannot be removed, which is strongly explained by the fact that our character is slightly disgusted, although this does not prevent us from eating the raw limbs of defeated opponents. The same goes for some weapons, which also cannot be recovered after a victorious battle.
“Taking armor from opponents would be stealing, and stealing is wrong,” user diggsfan14 commented.
We require stairs!
In some places you can find functional stairs.
In the game, with a little creativity and using lots of wooden beams, you can build some pretty impressive structures. The upper floors are accessible by taking stairs or climbing a rope. However, players lack stairs, which would certainly provide a more comfortable climb to the upper floors of the house. than the rope mentioned above. It is quite possible that a ladder will be added to it in the future, since several of them are already in play and allow us to descend into the bunkers scattered around the map.

Virginia comes home
With someone like that, burglaries don’t scare us.
During the first hours in the game world, one can meet Virginia, a shy woman with three arms and three legs. Over time, however, the character gets used to us, gives us small gifts and can help us in battle if we give him a weapon. If, in addition to the usual weapon, we also equip it with a shotgun, it becomes a great help when defending against cannibal attacks.
Desafortunadamente, a Virginia, como a un gato, le gusta caminar por sus propios caminos y, a veces, se aleja significantly de la base, y luego tenemos que lidiar solos con los enemigos, porque Kelvin, nuestro compañero, no tiene muchas ganas de to fight. True, it is possible to increase the chances of the female remaining at or near the base by placing pots with berries near the house, but it would be useful to be able to give orders to Virginia and ask her to stay at home..
“Virginia usually stays close to home, but after the last update it’s going somewhere far and coming back very slowly,” says mralmostknowitall.
Break the ice
I’m cold just looking at it.
Four seasons are implemented in the game, and the most unfavorable for the player is, of course, winter. During this season there is a scarcity of game in the forests, and water can only be obtained from rivers, as lakes and small bodies of water are frozen. However, in Sons of the Forest we have an ax, with which it would certainly be possible to break the ice. The developers could also take inspiration from The Long Dark, in which you can melt and then boil snow, thus obtaining drinking water.
uninvited guests
Get off my lawn!
As I mentioned earlier, from time to time our base is attacked by cannibals. It is possible to erect wooden defensive walls and install sharp sticks in the ground, which makes it easier to repel the attack. Unfortunately, it’s not so much the cannibals that are the problem, but the places where they breed.
I myself noticed more than once that looking towards the beach I saw only an empty space. However, when I turned around for a few seconds and looked at the same spot again, several cannibals suddenly appeared on the beach out of nowhere, just like the NCPD in Cyberpunk 2077.
The biggest problem, however, is when enemies suddenly appear inside our base, and unfortunately it can happen. This issue should be resolved as soon as possible.
Finally, it should be remembered that next update will be released in 9 days and 12 hours (at the time of this writing), which is March 24.
