yes, I genuinely feel sympathy for you as in the upcoming months, you will begin to encounter numerous x-millions of "legacy" and "modern" console accounts eager to engage in PvP as console continues its path towards dedicated.
It is now your responsibility to review all the post, reports, requests, and various matters that these PvP players will soon be submitting on this forum.
With the work you have to do on this forum and steam forum- oh my, how will you ever have time to eat?:)

If 1% of your "millions of PvP'ers" are already posting, I'm not that worried. Currently It's basically you and three other people.
Besides, you said yourself that they don't bother with the forums, so I don't understand why you think there is going to be some magical flood of people that don't exist.

Now that you mention it, I have dreams for my next play through of doing a 4x12 km map using line that goes from forest on south to wasteland in the north. That would require me to travel through each biome to get to the next instead of just staying in the forest and dipping into each biome to unlock one at a time. I am curious to see what breaks when the map is not square.

That sounds like an amazing idea. Maybe simply just water around it on a 12x12 to simulate a rectangle?
 
I gotta ask. Is it really necessary to make update V1.4 gamesaves to not work after V2.0 releases? I mean, all the work people put into building their bases and the hours they spent playing the game, from V1.4 launch to June 30th will all be for nothing. I'm sure a lot of people will be pissed about it, cept me, since I stopped playing cause i've been wanting dynamic weather since last December when I saw it on the game's road map.

Yes. There are changes to many aspects of code that invalidate previous saves.

This is the nature of getting software that isn't finished yet. It is normal, and expected that major updates will invalidate saves.

In Steam you are able to stay on the older client version if you want. For the other three stores, it is very clearly labeled as pre-release software, so this kind of expectation should be set already.

So, what happens after 7 Days isn't a beta anymore? Will TFP still add free content through game updates no matter what, like GTA5 and NMS, or will they sell the new content as DLCs like The Sims 4 and Ark: Survival Evolved from then on? Either way, i'll still support TFP. 7 Days is the best zombie survival horror RPG i've ever played, even better than DayZ.

Bring all four of them.

You don`t feel sympathy, you bring PvP way of thinking in this forum ;)

There will be no numerous x-millions players who will post here, even if they approach, we have Snowdog.

And yeah I'll use some .Marauder parts but I really like the Hoarder hat and chest without the bag.

Nice DLC trailers on Steam; the Marauder and Desert Armor sets. Very well done!

Where are these mythological trailers? I've checked the store page, teh soundtrack page, even clicked DLC on the main menu after updating and there's nothing. Anyone got a link?

EDIT: Nevermind, I found them after some digging. No trailer for the desert set, but the other two are funny. Well, funny but disgusting in the case of the Hoarder one.

On the Steam 7 Days to Die store page, just below where you click to buy the game, there's a list :

CONTENT FOR THIS GAME:

7 Days to Die - Soundtrack
The Hoarder Armor Set
The Marauder Armor Set
The Desert Armor Set

Click on one to see the trailer. One trailer for each one.

They may do some free updates, but most things are probably going to be DLC. But they haven't said anything about that yet. Those should NOT require new saves, in case you are wondering.

@Laz Man
Will this ever be available again, or is it available now.
I mean the logs and log texture to build a cabin?

The logs are just block shapes and painted using the log paint.

No, those are actual log-shaped blocks in that screenshot. You can find them in the spherical section of editor.
