    PC How is your experience with the new armor pieces / sets

    Do dyes work on the new armors?  I've tried a few and they only seem to effect the icon but not the actual armor.  I'd say overall though I like the look of the new armors, but I miss the mix n match of the old system with clothes.  Personally I would have added a class mod slot and have these...

    PC Tier 6 Weapons Worse than Tier 5?

    Ah, ok it was probably the ammo, thanks!  I for sure had iron arrows in the T5 and stone arrows in the T6, didn't realize the stats reflected that

    a21 Controller Scheme Mod for v1.0?

    I was wondering how feasible you guys think this would be.  I know you could set up a steam controller profile and get like 70% of the way there, but I like having the buttons reflected in the GUI in case I forget anything in a panic.  The new control scheme has it's benefits but overall I much...

    PC Tier 6 Weapons Worse than Tier 5?

    I just spent my first legendary part to make a Tier 6 primitive bow and it had worse stats than my Tier 5 bow.  Is there a reason for this or is it a bug?   I took all the mods off of the Tier 5 bow and unmodded the Tier 5 did a few points more damage and velocity.

    PC Alpha 18 Dev Diary!!

    You should try hanging from the pullup bar for a couple of minutes each day to help heal your shoulders. Might need to work your way up to it, but from what I've heard it's supposed to be a good way to restore mobility and strength. Also, something to possibly try as an alternative to working...

    PC Development Opportunity - Hoard Reward

    I want to see a special "Loot Zombie" during horde nights that only shows up if you kill a certain % of the horde. He he'd be wearing a backpack with ♥♥♥♥ dangling from it making clanging noises so the players know when he arrives and where he is. He'd waddle up to a player and at about 50...

    PC Eliminate Attributes Entirely?

    What if we just got rid of the attributes (Strength, Agility, Fortitude, etc) and just had perks to buy? Personally, I think it would greatly improve the perk system by not requiring you to put points into attributes in cases where you really only want one or two perks in the entire section...

    PC What mods are you using in A18? No melee perk build viable?

    In my testing it generally takes 2 unless you land a headshot or are top tier with your weapon quality / perks. And even then you've lost your weapon and have to get it back, which isn't likely to be easy in the middle of a horde. It's a whole lot easier to unload on them with just about any...

    PC What mods are you using in A18? No melee perk build viable?

    Mods: 60 slot backpack mod backpack transfer buttons double-barrel shotgun /w melee attack SMX Hud (I modified it though to remove some icons \ logos) From there, I did a bunch of my own modifications: Rebalanced all Melee to do 2x dmg, thrown spear does 10x, knives have 2x fire rate...

    PC Zombies Take Too Much Damage To Kill?

    Well that sucks. I generally prefer melee \ bows and only use guns for horde nights when there's just too many zombies for anything else.

    PC Loving A18 but seed schematics!?!?!

    Yeah I like it too, but generally you can craft just about every type of thing from the start, but they're all kinda ♥♥♥♥ty versions of the things you unlock from looting. With farming it's just flat out locked out it seems like until you get lucky from looting. Seems like it would be better...

    PC Zombies Take Too Much Damage To Kill?

    Is it just me or are Zombies kind of damage sponges in a18? This is on the lowest difficulty btw. I can't seem to kill them without pummeling each one in the head over and over. So far I've tried the bow, spear, club, and hand wraps. Is there a point where headshots will reliably kill in 1...

    PC Loving A18 but seed schematics!?!?!

    I would think you should be able to craft poor quality seeds from the start that have a very low chance of yielding anything (like 20% chance per harvest). I'd assumed this would be the case, is it not?

    PC Un-craftable wooden bow parts...

    I actually like this aspect of the game, I prefer being "stuck" without something due to randomness, it adds flavor to each playthrough. Now that being said, in older builds I used modded settings where I had like 4x XP gain, 4x resource and loot gain, 1/4 dmg from zombies, 3x zombie numbers...
