PC A18 Suggestions & Feedback

[meganoth]

I've heard them say all of that but that is old like A16 thinking. Why would they add a safe room kind of place you can buy when the option to turn off the horde exists? Have you heard the option to turn off horde night is a temporary thing until they sort the other stuff out?

No, talk about the hotel was sometime this summer.

Turning off the horde night completely is a choice you can make as well as turning god mode on. The first doesn't make hotels useless and the second does not make armor useless.

Because someone turning on these options knows he is making the game intentionally easy for themselves. Buying a hotel does not because you just play the balanced game where this deosn't come free.

From what I gathered endgame consists of digging every day in order to have enough ammo on bloodmoon.I did not get far enough with A18 yet, but if my endgame boils down to that, I'd rather play a straight shooter game.

It will be that, or you could exploit the AI and never fire a shot, which is probably just as tedious.

For me endgame would have been my base facing the max gamestage horde (1200 solo, right?). However they stretched levelling to such crazy extremes that I doubt anyone could last long enough before getting completely bored of their current map.

I don't think it's how it works. For example, when I am dangerously surrounded by the horde and my defenses collapse, I always keep in mind that I can jump into one of my vehicles and escape the danger.
I completely understand people who don't want this opportunity. In a survival game, if there is a way to avoid danger, I will take it, especially when you play "dead is dead." But if the vehicles were, for example, down during the blood moon, well ... I should adapt.

I doubt that the OP has played very much of Alpha 18. The blood moon hordes get insane later in the game. Riding around in your vehicle just won't cut it. Zombies RUN during horde night unless you turn that off, if that's the case, that is on you for turning it off.

Because sometimes bad things happen. Perhaps you want a game where horde night is a normal thing. At some point in late game, you might see before a horde that you just won't have enough ammo to make it through. So, you tap into your savings that you kept aside for such an emergency and spend the night in somewhere safe. They should disable a lot of those game settings once a game is started, unless it's a cheat mode game. Most sandbox games that have a campaign allow you to set tons of things before you start... but after that, you just get some basics that can be changed and nothing more. People having bad experiences trying to turn off the BM after they've already been playing with it on (or vice versa) shows how allowing things like that are problematic for games in progress.

7 Days to Die is meant to be open ended. Players can play any way they like. You can even disable zombies entirely if you want (try that and 25% loot...see how long you last without dying. )

Ok fair enough.

Are you quoting me to augment my statements or to counter them? I'm quite confused.If you are adding to them, sure, but I think we all know this. If you are countering my statements, I don't know why as I agree fully. I just don't think some changes should be available after you have made your choices before starting the game.

My blood moon hordes are set at nightmare speed and I can still distance them with a bike, while smoking a cigar.
