** The longer you survive and the higher you level up, the bigger and tougher the Blood Moon Hordes will get.
** The more activity performed in one area, the "hotter" it gets for zombie spawns. So if you have a centralized base where you do most of your crafting and don't make the effort to hide from Screamers, be prepared to fight off hordes constantly.

* TaintedByThePreview: Due to the game being Early Access on Steam, it's probably easy to see this happen, as this is the case with a lot of Early Access games. The very first recommendation for the game is negative, but the review was based around the game prior to Alpha 7 which overhauled the game. Doesn't help that the review is the first one you see and that the reviewer changes his opinion based on each update now, which seems to be nitpicking on several aspects rather than the lack of promises that was the core reason behind the negative review.

* ThatOneComponent: Getting mechanical parts is difficult in the early game due to a ChickenAndEggParadox. The primary source of mechanical parts is disassembling machinery using a wrench. However, wrenches themselves [[{{Irony}} require Mechanical Parts to craft]]. This means the player is likely to [[RandomDrop randomly loot an entire wrench]] before finding enough mechanical parts to craft one. Once the player has a wrench though, the plentiful number of things to disassemble means they'll [[DownplayedTrope never want for mechanical parts again]].

** Hornets, on top of claiming the title for MostAnnoyingSound below, are capable of flight. They like to divebomb unsuspecting players, usually during hordes. What's especially egregious about these guys is that there's zero indicator of them even being related to the zombies, sans for their honey curing the early stages of infection.

* MostAnnoyingSound: The buzzing sound that the hornets make is incredibly loud and grating. If one senses you at nightfall and you're locked up in your house, chances are, unless you mute the game, you'll hold up a few minutes before running outside just to kill it despite the zombies.

*** The Hornet's replacement, Zombie Vultures, are even worse. They will follow you ''relentlessly'' across the map, hovering high overhead and circling, so they are extremely hard to hit, even with scoped weapons.

Misaimed Realism is now YMMV.
Added DiffLines:
* MisaimedRealism: The body temperature system used to be this. If you get too hot, wearing heavy clothes, you get heatstroke, which can kill you. If you get too cold, such as being bare in the arctic, you will freeze and die. Great concept, right? Only problem is that in alphas before 15, the system was ludicrously spontaneous and uneven: you could find yourself somehow getting heatstroke while swimming naked in an arctic pool, or find yourself sweltering at 110 degrees wearing only a shirt and pants in a temperate zone rainstorm. The algorithm was later completely reworked so that temperature management is more plausible, and in the recent build, the system was changed entirely, with clothing providing a set amount of cold and hot resist rather than increasing or decreasing a general insulation.
