    PC A17 and Random Gen maps

    Agreed, the more than half the big shops - SGM, P&P, Hardware seem to collapse on sight, or when you move into them, which is a huge loss of loot, not to mention chance of dying if you get inside before the physics kicks in to destroy the building. Mostly it's the big buildings being built on...

    PC Mining.... like some of it, don't like some of it

    I haven't tried mining yet in A17 but I agree with part of your comment. Just how a pile of soil, sand or rocks evaporate after falling a meter or two always struck me as both a waste and unrealistic. For the other part though, I'm in favor of sand and gravel being unstable. Mining should...

    PC Out of Stamina... Out of Stamina... Out of Stamina...

    I guess it's been a while since you had a starter toon in A15 or 16? Seems to me that was pretty much my life for at least the first week. :D But overall I'd have to say it is a bit worse. Doing regular attacks seems to wear you out about the same in 17 as attacks in 16, but the power...

    PC A17 - Great job on the vulture AI, TFP

    I'm seeing some improvements overall in the general zombie pathing and AI, and I'm having to relearn cautious strategies I'd long since dropped in earlier iterations of 7d2d. But wow, I'm really both loving and hating the new vultures. I love the way they seem to follow you around, the circling...

    PC Death Penalty Poll

    To my mind losing your gear, or at the least having to run out to find the bag and reclaim it is enough of a penalty in my mind. Given usually all your best gear, or early on possibly ALL your gear is out there means major inconvenience, loss of time and increased chance of dying again. It quite...

    PC Zombie loot - negative economic review

    Agreed! While I think that the amount and type of loot zombies were dropping in A16 was both generous and unlikely, I do have a problem with 98% dropping nothing. I've never been wearing fiber clothes much past noon of day one before, and now it's day four before I had a coat, shirt, pants and...

    PC Very bad Random Gen

    And that's great right up to point where you pull one corn plant and the half the field collapses because it's hanging off a hillside and unsupported. Or until you step into the front porch of a house and it slowly collapses into a ruin, tanking your FPS and leaving you to deal with all the...

    PC A17's good and bads

    Shadowmoses - don't waste time arguing with the trolls who have the attention spans of goldfish, they'd have already swum on and forgotten if you didn't remind them by replying. I found your "good and bad" format useful and I largely agree with everything. Personally, I'm on day 9 and getting...

    PC Max Stamina - suggestion

    I always wondered who was putting new poops in the toilets, well that and why there was never in the toilet in my house. :D I figured I was constipated from all the antibiotics I'd been taking. I'd go round a month after the first looting run and the toilets would be restocked. Now no...

    PC Max Stamina - suggestion

    Personally I'd prefer there to be no stamina loss until you go below 50%, and realistically it should probably be lower. You should be able to eat a big breakfast and just pack a light lunch and some liquids and be good for a day's worth of exploring. That's would close reflect how our bodies...

    PC please don't cater to the HC crowd

    Obviously hard core vs. casual players' desires are always hard to reconcile. The only thing I think they can do that won't alienate anyone is to increase the range of the scale so the bottom is easier and the top is even more challenging. Arguing over the "right way" to play the game is...

    PC What's with the barbed and spiked clubs?

    You mentioned attachments as rare drops in the context of club spikes. So yes stupid. Needing a schematic is also stupid but at least once you find one you can craft multiples, so better overall. But if you can craft spikes and not have to just find them as rare drops that would be great. And...

    PC Scary Cities

    Me too. I also miss the little crossroads building clusters - they made decent based. But I also like the new, variably sized villages and towns. Really, I want both!

    PC Alchemy

    Some would say it is a bug when recipes like the ones mentioned create new resources. You make windows with just wood, but you can harvest glass from them. Then melt the glass to make jars or whatever. *magic* or *exploit* or *bug* I would say. Ditto for anything that yields more than it takes...

    PC What's with the barbed and spiked clubs?

    Ok, if that's how it's going to work that is just plain stupid, and even worse than the current situation. Where on earth would "spiked club kits" come from? Before the zombie apocalypse who'd have made them? After the apocalypse, who is making them and putting them in crates in abandoned...
