Console [07/11] - Message from the Team - Progress update

Will they say anything yet on what new content is being added, if any? I'm really really curious to be able to have some things on the console that we don't yet.
This!!

I would love to know what sort of features are being worked on, or even not being worked on! Just a “we’re looking to see if we can implement x but don’t get your hopes up, there’s no way we can implement y feature” type of update.

I guess though that no matter how much we’re told that there’s no guarantees and that working on a feature is not the same as it being confirmed as a future thing there will be some that will get their hopes up and complain if it doesn’t come to light.

 
a18 will likely be the last Alpha for the PC version, and I expect we will see it arrive about 6 months after a17 goes to the stable branch. After that it's Beta, and the devs will focus more on optimizing the client and fixing any remaining bugs. I don't think we're going to see a lot of new content added after a17 personally, because I get the feeling they've just about got the game where they want it. The only real missing component after a17 is the bandit and survivor NPC's and the settlement system.
We

Now back to the show......

We’re only missing 2-3 things out of alpha 15 and that’s the machete perk,zombies and old cash

I really hope they don’t bring out sleeper zombies because how many bugs that came with on alpha 16 (pc) but the new unity might help with the big pois because at the moment the big pois crash my game

You might want to try reading through the thread.

 
Should be anytime soon. They did say they were shooting for July and we're barreling toward the end of this month already.

I want OUR update for console though. I'm a poor mofo, cant afford to buy a high end pc just for a game, even one as badass as 7 Days to Die.

Responsibility and bills suck!!

 
Gmad03 is it really out next week how you know bro
Someone went to PC section asking about console updates. Because it isn't the first time and it happens often they jumped over here to try and be funny.

For us that have both it might be funny. But for those that only play console are not going to find it funny and just make things turn into something that isn't worth the time all because someone new to the forums didn't take time to see the different sections or didn't take time to read that TFP are not over the console.

Anyway console update has not been given a release date yet but it shouldn't be to much longer before they give more information on it. I would say more info will come next month and shortly after that Sony and Microsoft have to approve the update then the team will release it the normally on a Tuesday so probably the Tuesday or two after Sony and Microsoft approves the update.

My guess we are looking at around maybe September but most likely October/November before we see a update on console. Again this is my guess so not confirmed.

Don’t take this harsh bro (not on about you) but pc players are big headed coming in to a console form talking about there stuff it’s stupid ...how I see it it’s good that pc gets it first then we get it when it’s complete..... I have a feeling it’s a week after there full alpha17 release like it was last year

shows pc are be test rabbits 😂😂

I’d be fine waiting until oct/nov for as I am using a lot of water in my current build, so much I think I am a glutton for punishment, plus it gives IG extra time with the new Unity.

Think I might finally break down and buy game for PC as well, laptop does have 8gb of memory, so maybe with the engine upgrade on PC as well it’ll run okay. Plus then I’ll have it when I build gaming PC.

I was a little disappointed when faatal got involved with whole console posting on PC side but if his AI improvements are as good as what he’s talked about in his thread I’ll forgive him 😊.

Yeah, like I said going into it just makes more than it actually is.

What he improved could make it to this console update if it is ready and they sent what they need to IG. But for now we have to assume because it hasn't even been released yet that console might not see that right away at least this coming update.

That would be amazing if it makes it in but if it doesn’t I’m okay with it and totally understand. I was more talking about when I grab the PC version seeing it in action.

All I really want for this update would be more pois if possible and the new skill system. I’m gettin real tired of spam crafting 😂

 
Tougher enemies

Is there a chance we can find out if irradiated zombies will be coming? By the time ferals and cops finally show up they literally have no chance of getting in. Takes all the fear out of horde night.

Man i hope so. Everything is simply speculation from here. Only IG knows what we are gettimg for sure. Im hoping for new poi's & new zombies myself. Everything else will just be icing on the cake!

 
Yeah just speculations at this point. But hopefully in another week or two we will get another update and it will at least have a few things listed in it. Crossing fingers at least lol

 
In my opinion it is the most important thing to get new zombies because most players need a new challenge. The dynamic horde made the game way to easy and everyone quickly got used to the standard zombies which are not not hard to fight as long as they can't destroy blocks as quick as they do in Alpha 16.4.

All in all it totally took the strategy out of the game, you can hide behind your walls before ferals and cops start to spawn and even as soon as they appear they are still too weak or don't find a way in.

Of course an AI overhaul is a very big thing which takes very much time to get everything running well but for now it by far would be enough to have enemies which can break through barriers instead of passing them.

 
getting rid of the invisible. 1 hit hill landmines. it's the only reason i stopped playing. even with maxed out raider armour,maxed heavy armour skill and 150 health there still one hit kills. the fact there invisible is verry unfair. seems lkke every map is half wasteland
