    Hey - this is all friendly criticism. Like I've said numerous times, I love the game. But if working toward their vision means catering to one play style or penalizing another, they are in fact targeting specific play styles they don't want to see. There are other ways to encourage particular...

    Lol. I don't think that means what you think it means. 😛 A zombie shouldn't walk through a corn maze  to attack a piece of wall with 2% less HP then the wall directly in front of them. Which the player is standing directly behind.  A zombie also shouldn't be able to dig 50 feet below the...

    ^ So yeah.. strategically creating core mechanic modifications that actively defeat certain play styles. Working against the player. 😛

    Then we have to disagree on that last point. The description sounded to me like it was meant to be a zombie survival building game. The dev even seemed to agree with that description in my earlier post. What it has turned into is a run and gun shooter with some (really unnecessarily) building...

    Lol. News flash...its still unfinished. 😛 And people have that idea because that's how the game was billed. And yeah - the percentage of users with that mindset does kind of matter.   And I don't want to turn the zombies off. That skates around the entire point. Myself and a lot of other people...

    Lol. How does that invalidate any of the other criticisms in that post?

    More to my point, recent Reddit quote from someone returning to the game after the current patch: "Are zombies still omniscient with PhDs in Civil Engineering and Physics?" Edited to add a few more quoted criticisms: "It used to be a fun crafting/survival game with zombies. Now it's a...

    A lot of the folks who funded the kickstarter seem to disagree with you. Google it. They're kinda all over the place.  I  haven't been asking for polygon coffee makers. I ask devs to not make sweeping changes that break the reason I bought the game. And if that's where it's going, I'm fine with...

    On a fundamental level are they, though? I'm not talking about a replica of the Sistine Chapel or anything, but I don't think wanting a functional and at the same time attractive/well decorated base should be mutually exclusive? And that is kind of missing the point.  At the end of the day...

    I have to ask then - and honest question... sincerely not trying to be confrontational.. What was the deal with the digging zombies? It seems like that aspect was custom designed to throw a big wrench in the gears of people with underground bases that had effectively neutralized the horde threat.

    Lol - and here comes the fanboy.  Console or PC, my money is just as green. And yes - I'm speaking on the PC. You're assuming because I refuse to purchase it on PC in it's current state that I haven't played the PC version? Sounds like a fanboy assumption. 😉

    Thanks for the polite response. I honestly expected less cordiality.  I love the game. As does my wife. When we were looking for a co-op survival game that checked all the boxes, there was 7 Days. Literally nothing else had everything we wanted in that genre.  But make no mistake - the big...

    Alright. I had to say something at this point.  I game on PC and console. I own and enjoy the game on console. I will not be purchasing it on PC until TFP becomes a little more responsive to the community that supports their work. To create a game that is obviously centered around building and...
