honestly kinetic traps could be problematic for cpu . and well you have them in orcs must die at least XD

Trap floors and robotic sledges are kinetic traps already. And they don't get close to what a stun baton with repulsor mod and nerd tats will do.

Well trap floors are only in half traps- ofc they are traps but works like hm it is broken so you fall because you weight to much. Robotic sledge hammers are quiet "turret" type. kinetic traps in more "psychic way" it will be push trap from orcs must die - you make a rangdoll

 
Hoping one of the games they're working on is 7DtD 2 and that they use this awesome UE5 tech. Amazing visuals AND terrain deformation. Not to mention just getting away from Unity in general would be great.



 
As far as i can tell, the only real difference between the robo-sledge and the pusher trap in Orcs Must Die is area of effect and the fact the robo-sledge is easier to place and replace. So I don’t necessarily see more kinetic traps overburdening CPUs more so than what’s already been implemented. I’d love more variety in traps and defenses, maybe even more utility focused traps that do little or no damage but provide strong crowd control to help setup killzones for your damage traps. Leaning more into the Base defense/Tower defense aspects would be fantastic and i hope TFP is planning on doing that in a later alpha.

well  problem with traps it that they need to suit to 7dtd - so could works in vietnam style - cartrige bombs , bambo whip  , punij bear trap , mace trap etc

I completely disagree with that crap... maybe it's good for a mod, but 7D2D theme doesn't fit IMO.

I like the ragtag look and feel of everything we use to survive. NotD devs just add stuff because they can, it's becoming a high-tech sci-fi game instead of a survival struggle.

It seems to me, or did you not so long ago advocate for a self-made flying intelligent robot? 😂

Honestly you could do the wall-axe trap in 7D2D, just make it out of scrap metal and obvious mechanical parts.

it’s basically the mixture of the blade trap and robo-sledge.

I just want to play A20. I think we have to wait like 2 months to the release. It's really hard to wait but at least the patch will be at the finest. GIVE MORE LEAKS PLS... So curious about the spider and screamer update

im not sure A20 will be as different or such a big deal since all major changes seems to be in A21 ..

so i'd say 1 more year lol

🤨 A20 is "only" getting more POIs, adjusted building system (included expanded shape menu), Vehicle mods, new starting weapons, Map gen (Random Generation as the Devs call it) changes including the ability to adjust POI density, being able to see changes you made to the world while playing from a greater distance,... Ya, all the "major" changes got pushed to A21... 😒

Exactly. Have to try darkness falls mod before the patch 😕 Hope it won't be to easy in A20 after it xD I really hope the feral sense will give a major boost to the Zombies. Will probably play on "all" mode and set the hardest difficulty

I feel there isnt much zombies, NEED MORE ZOMBIES!!! when you are in a building i want zombies coming at you from all directions!

Never did. I just copy-pasted questions about the drone from the Steam forums, as I often do.

I guess you assumed that because you can't imagine anyone willing to help a fellow player finding answers.

Also, a flying drone is much more doable than whatever those other guys were asking... at present there are already drones you can buy on-line which can fly and follow you with an integrated camera. So, it's not difficult to imagine that after the apocalypse you could find parts and put them back together to build a ragtag drone.

Play A17. POIs were packed with zombies.

This will be the biggest update ever for builders. The shape menu is….comprehensive. They have been working on it solidly this entire past year which also includes having to go in and adjust existing POIs that used legacy blocks.

Logic elements AND and OR are the basis of electrical circuits, these are common, very common things called "relays". By the way, there is a relay in the game, but this is not a relay in its function.

Sorry, but in fact, this device is much simpler and much more common than a drone and is often made on exclusively analog components.

If they can add it without looking like Electrical Engineering stuff, then I'm ok.
