PC A20 Developer Diary Discussions

you dont get a compromise with books and bonuses and other games that have set bonuses dont allow the bonus on mixed sets. :)

as i said already, i dont make the design decisions so we have to wait and see what happens :)

Someone mentioned radiation mods for resistance, does that mean the rad suit is coming back?  Its one outfit i miss cause it was such a milestone to complete the set lol, if its still in the game its damn rare, but with that will we have rad zones or would it simply help with defence against glowing zombies or cop bile?

Screen cap by @Adam the Waster from the stream on the 28th of Oct. It is the current concept for one of the outfits that are planned to make use of the new character system coming in A20.

@madmole and @Gazz both confirmed that when/if rad zones are put in, Wasteland is likely to be radiated, there will be mods for outfits similar to the current cooling mesh and thermal lining that will affect rad resistance.

I haven't gotten to watch the stream yet, lol, but that looks amazing, and seeing how different pieces give different bonuses as well as a full set bonus, im loving that detail, thank you for the screenshot, i so cannot wait to see what else is in store, even if its early stage sketches

 
With the passive radiation hazard being considered, how about if we could build a powered cleansing device to open up a practical way to build bases in the Wasteland? I'd love the idea of making maps that are mostly or entirely wasteland and you need to keep purification stations fueled and powered to survive that creeping death. Could have air purifiers that nullify the radiation effect and expensive Detox stations that cure rad sickness at an accelerated or instant rate. Requiring power would keep them limited but could create a whole new flavor of gameplay.

If scheduling is proving so hard, why not let the community help out with the baby sitting, errand running, and cleaning? Surely there is some calendar or spreadsheet that can be released, or some projected date that we can help brainstorm around.

Guys, we heard a man of his word. Roland is the first volunteer...

You mean a piece bonus, right?  Each piece would still give their own bonuses If they were mixed but the set bonus would not be awarded unless all pieces from that set were being worn.

Different games do set boni differently.

Sometimes there is only one bonus for completion, sometimes every piece you add increments the set bonus amount/type.

вы не идете на компромисс с книгами и бонусами, а другие игры, в которых есть наборы бонусов, не допускают бонусов на смешанные наборы. :)

как я уже сказал, я не принимаю дизайнерских решений, поэтому мы должны подождать и посмотреть, что произойдет :)

It could be some secret bonuses, dispatch bonuses and so on.
For example, with a certain set of clothes, a character could fall on hay from any height without taking damage 😃
It would be cool if, in addition to the existing sets with a description, there were such sets that players could open completely by accident.
This would generate a lot of discussion, speculation and legends on the forums and on Steam... but only if it was not in the clear in xml.
Just reasoning 😃

Well yeah, reading the official list of planned changes completely changed my mind on what I wrote on page 2. Alpha 20 looks amazing, moreso than A19 for my taste since A19 brought more eye candy and the loot progression was a fun killer. Hope the changes to that will be good. 

Damn I'm hyped! 😍 I know no dates, ready when it's ready etc... But earlier this year there were talks of A20 being a late 2020 update, is that still a possibility or is the A20 update way more ambitious than initially planned?

They are trying something new and will release A21 before A20. They found out backtracking is a lot easier.

Seriously, MM already said A20 would have more features and the time till end-of-year too short. Look at the feature list and you wouldn't believe him anyway if he said they were targetting December 😉

I have a little complaint about the new nurse 😃
The new zombie nurse has a movable lower jaw and hairy tail, but the stethoscope is firmly glued to the zombie.
A stethoscope, unlike a tail of hair, is constantly in front of the player's eyes, and the fact that it has no physics is very striking.
Will the stethoscope have physics like this zombie's jaw and hair?

Its all that zombie juice, A new way to get glue Confirmed! A222 

 
About the set bonus, I think ppl are asking if it will work in the way of Diablo 3.

2 pc bonus: blabla

4 pc bonus: blabla

Alot goes on where you try for bonus from 2 sets that have a good synergy. (and the ring that means you get the bonus with 1 less piece, but min is 2pcs)

So is it that style, or just 1 extra bonus for the full set only?

oh, as for the swapping outfits for short times, yeah, some are, but for mining, I tend to spend the night mining, then other stuff in daytime

swapping out just for hitting the traders, well, even that I tend to just do every 3 days. 

Of course, all this will depend on just what the set bonus actually are. (gotta wait for that)

:)

now I need moar coffee. stayed up too late watching movies again.  I'll never learn.  😛
