    PC 1.0. No, this is still alpha.

    The only items I have ever lost are vehicles, and I haven't seen that happen for many major versions... I also have nearly 2000 hours in the game. Are you playing with mods?

    Dedicated Server Question

    I am trying to run the 7 Days to Die Dedicated Server and use it crossplay with my son on xbox. I have it running, works well for other people (on PC) outside my house. But, my son can't see it from xbox. It is a vanilla server, and I even have the ServerAllowCrossplay value set to true...

    Boats?

    Nothing crazy, but wondering what the chances are of us getting boats in the game? I'd roughly estimate you could reuse the existing vehicle code, give it a new model and then give it some sort of "only works ON water" and doesn't sink.

    PC Split screen

    There isn't any reason it couldn't function the same - player 2 just uses a controller, same as a console player would. And yeah - TV screens typically bigger, but I could see it on my PC with a 32" monitor. I sit close to it since it is a desk.

    PC Split screen

    I don't want to be a nay-sayer, but my guess is if the PC build doesn't support it - it is unlikely that the console version would. I could be wrong and I hope I am wrong.

    Working shipping containers?

    Not sure if this has been brought up before, but any chance we’d ever see shipping containers with working doors?      i want to build something like this in game!

    PC What was the point of the water change?

    First, I will admit I didn't read all 7 pages of comments. But, the whole 'realism' thing is thrown on so many fronts, I don't think it is that strange that they did away with the containers. Like, my guy can run around with 17 tons of concrete in his backpack...  Yes, I do see the OPs point...

    PC Will crafting balance come in alpha 22 or is crafting dead?

    Long thread here, tried to read a lot of it.  I personally play the game for the mood I am in. Sometimes, I play where I just do trader quests for my progression. Other times, I make a conscious decision to just live off my own gains and crafting. No trader quests, just work through the world...

    PC Alpha 21 Dev Diary

    Ooh, that would be cool - I hope it happens. And in real time, like you can ride in the helicopter and survey the land from the air.

    PC Alpha 21 Dev Diary

    Do we have any idea if the helicopter pads in new trader locations have an intended usage in future versions? Having an unlockable (or purchasable) ticket to ride from trader to trader would be kind of neat (i.e. fast travel).

    PC Traders and quests need to be nerfed

    True. It would need some nuance to not be completely annoying. Funny thing is I am pretty sure an older version of the game did this, lost quality levels on repair (or something like that).  Ultimately, I don't think this is the path at all - better to balance the loot availability (both from...

    PC Traders and quests need to be nerfed

    The other road to take this down for balance would be to go BOTW and break gear with no option to repair. I really don't support this idea, but it would help balance out the fact that you can get 'end'-ish game gear from trader in the first week or two in game. Sure, you may get lucky and got a...

    PC Traders and quests need to be nerfed

    I totally hear you, but I think people like variable levels of challenge. Perhaps these options need to be game settings to account for everyone. Like "Max Item Level from Traders" or something.

    PC Traders and quests need to be nerfed

    I am still getting my feel for A21, so please take this with that in mind. But, I do like Roland's idea of only level 1 stuff. Or a modification on that being maybe max level is half of the tier of quest you are on. So, if you are on a tier 1 or 2, the best you will see is level 1. Tier 3/4...

    PC Alpha 21 Dev Diary

    Oh yeah, I know you can deal with it - played plenty. Generally a few days into any game I play I am set on food/water (pre A21, that is). So far A21 is no different. BUT, I do think with all the gameplay sliders they give you - one that modifies the consumption rate would be nice. That way you...
