    PC Gyrocopter tutorial

    My mind was blown by the THREE gauges!  Imagine knowing RPM, air speed, altitude, attitude (allow for zero stick) ... which are actually arguably more situationally important than fuel gauge and% damage.  Bonus points if the gyro actually behaved like a gyro and maintained auto-rotation when you...

    PC Alpha 21 Dev Diary

    I've had the problem when a part of the building collapses before the zombies spawn in in a zone.  It's just inconvenient to fail a quest.

    PC Alpha 21 Dev Diary

    If level 6 items were always better than level 5.  I feel the RNG min/max on item stats s/b more of a gaussian curve (e.g. instead of linear random from min to max.  I would add 3 random numbers (R1+R2+R3 from min to max) divided by 3.)  which moves the stats probability closer to the mean. It...

    PC Are there good reasons to use high block damage explosives?

    I play on a map with freeways.  So, if I need to blast tunnels, and remove terrain to create off ramps I would consider it.  If I don't need the stone for more concrete for more freeway...

    PC Hidden Stashes Needs a buff

    My mom told me the stories of when as a teen she would detassle corn and work at the processing plants.   which parts of the corn do you think go into the creamed, as opposed to the whole kernel canned corn? But maybe Shamway has better quality standards.

    PC Deaths expected in first week?

    Evem at higher levels, depending on the mix, wandering horde of zombie dogs or multiple vultures or a zombear can quickly ruin your day if you cannot escape.

    PC please make an invisible block around farm plants.. right now i have to swing 50 or so times to harvest a plant each one different it makes farming n

    I find I'm more successful looking straight down on the X of the plant.  But, yeah, I end up hitting the ground or ripping up seeds if I'm in a hurry.

    PC Hidden Stashes Needs a buff

    In the D&D vernacular dungeon dressing enough loot to repair the armor.  There are some issues with "Trash" loot. in fact, I fined the actual trash is one of the best loot sources, while POI leveled loot is some of the worst.  I'd like a bit more diversity in leveled loot items, but maybe just...

    PC Hidden Stashes Needs a buff

    If they made the hidden painting, floor, cupboard block loot helper optionally just be a copy of an adjacent solid block 90% of the time, and then placed more of them it would serve the same purpose.  90% of the time you'd be wrong even if you knew where to look.

    PC Hidden Stashes Needs a buff

    Bullets ARE treasure, but... I do think leveled loot tables could use some attention. When I loot houses have so many questions; who carries 2 cans of Miso in their purse? why was that white clutch purse so popular? why does almost every cupboard hold empty cans or jars and /or boiled...

    PC Why are the devs screwing over agi/stealth in their POI design?

    I recall the wanderers were all alert prior to 19.3, but they are changing them in 19.3  to "sleep walkers".  Wandering horde zombies are not alert, so stealth attacks work on them I would guess this will be more adjustable with the A20 user scalable zombie sensitivity mechanics.  If they...

    PC A19.3 changed wedge tips so zombies do not see them as a path

    My Blood moon kill cage behavior changed in 19.3.  I replaced my balance beam of pointy side up wedge tips with 1/2 slabs and the zombies regained ability to path to me.

    PC Why are the devs screwing over agi/stealth in their POI design?

    Why would you fail?  Maybe because being in frail cloth armor and relying on 100% stealth as your only tool is a losing strategy in SP.   In the rock-paper-scissors of game theory, you need to be able to deal with more than rocks.  Or, be prepared to fail 2/3rds of the time.

    PC Why are the devs screwing over agi/stealth in their POI design?

    I do my blood moons multiplayer.  I do see that if I am crouched and shoot at a zombie aggro'd on someone else I will get stealth bonus damage.
