Then you must have started playing with Alpha 15 because they had bandits on the load screen as a next feature as early as Alpha 7 or 8 and even semi-implemented them in Alpha 11 but then quickly withdrew until they could do them the way they envisioned. 
 

Bandits have been pushed to the next alpha for about 11 alphas now. I bet if someone returned to the game after not playing for the last 5-6 years their first question would be “So where are the bandits?” because that’s how long fans have been looking forward to them hopefully arriving in the next couple alphas….lol

 But to anyone paying attention you can see many implemented features that will directly lead to bandits. So they are not just vapor. And when they do arrive it will be a whole new game. For free. 😀

well if i good  remember that near 16 or 17 madmole (probably?) posted some bandit models. well i don't thinks so - they will just be another types of mobs because don't have anything unique - we have zombies and animals now and bandits probably will be passive to animals and aggresive againt zombie. well  more change would be something like  big titan zombie in snk way ,variation about tank - you now it charging have big dmg and destroy everything or something like witch or lost girl from terraria - we have range zombie - fat cop and rest of zombie have melee like bandits.  game changer could be - bandit armored truck , bandit gyrocopter with m60 or granade thower. that's why we get human enemies only one time in cod zombie history (advance warfare- map carrier - atlas strike team).  honestly i know bandits were in kickstarter promise but i don't get it XD . dead rising people enemies were annoing this same in days gone or in dying light melee version. only zombie game not focused on story which need human enemies is nza 4 dead war - cult soldiers. ofc in eMotIonAL games like the last of us need them but these games are focused on people and zombie is small addon

You don't understand, probably because you joined in 2020, that's fine, you will eventually find out what does "it feels like a whole new game" mean around these parts. :classic_laugh:

well i bought this game i maybe 2014 or 2015 - before achievments - i remember when worlds looks like minecraft and we respawning near body and sometimes this body get a gun.  ofc few changes - graphic  food system or rotting of  corpses were wow but  number of zombie types are similiar we lost miner , nude walker etc so number of zombies is almost this same. if we get dunno 40 new zombie variants it could be totaly new game- even in l4d2 if you install hd mods and new zombie variants, guns models  ,better corpses give diffrents feelings. in l4d2 charger splliter wandering witches or jockey make something like " wow this rly good and change everything" but in nza3 you get zombies with guns and it was " this zombie shooting with gun? ok " but  panzer zombies were so good. i think melee bandits will be kinda well " speaking zombies". range bandits? it would depends on ai if they will be something new or human fat cop. i just don't undestand this hype

Also, the game will go gold in December 14 2015.

Omg, I can't believe this is our game xD.

Jokes aside, this time though. THIS time is better than the last one...

... and worse than the next 😛

"We'll probably just do an alpha release every two hours, that way I will have time for a couple of 30 squats series  between gameplays".

They say otherwise but I agree. Simply a normal early access thing. Majority of interested buyer have bought.

However I want to state what I have said before. Even if the game went gold and released next week it is totally worth the $7.50 sale price it currently sells for and have totally been worth the $20 or so I spent on it.

I agree as well. I bought it on PS4 back when it released, paid like $23 or so, totally worth it. Hell I'll buy it again on console if it ever re-releases to it's "final state" or "gold"...whenever that happens.

Then when I moved to PC, I didn't catch it on sale, but still well worth the $25 price tag. 

I'll be honest, I'm ok if it stays in Alpha forever. It's like we get a new game every time. 

 
Man I totally get the fact that the football player & cheerleader have limited areas of where they "belong" but I really hope they are replaced by other zombies of some type.

I mean the more variety the better in my opinion. Hell bring the Hawaiian dude back since he changed to the fat blob dude & he's gonna eventually be the gasser if I remember correctly. 

Not trying to be a complainer, I f'ing love this game. Just want as many zombies to kill as possible. I'm not even super excited about bandits to be honest. That's what we kill our friends for on pvp!

Of course this is the day I found a total of 16 football players in POI's, which is 16 more than I have found in the entirety of A19. It's as if the game is giving them to me as a fond farewell or something. 😜

Calling it, 7 Days To Die will become the chess of video games, except 7 Days is infinitely more fun. Lol

well chess have some spin off XD atomic chess , 960 , Gliński's chess , capablanka etc XD so 7dtd need them too !  I have even few propositions :

 cartoon 7dtd - 7dtd with funny skins like fortnite , dances , funny weapons etc 

7htd - darker setting - zombie children , rotting corpses everywhere , you must keep you clean or you will get infection , it almost always creepy dark, whispers everywhere - more edgy  means better

7 days in normandy - 7 days in ww2 setting - take your good thompson and fight with undead on omaha beach !

7 years to die - yo play as 7 yo boy and you try to survive zombie outbrake - so be sneaky and craft sligshot to surviva another day with mr teddy! 

70 years to die - you think you old years will be quiet and boring, but zombie outbreak happens so now you can get flashback from vietnam. no running , you hit weak but you have big arsenal in you starting home so let's roll!

17 years to die - yo play as emo 17 yo girl - try to keep your character focused on cutting zombie not herself. well you are so pale and slim so zombie sometimes mistake you with another zombie so it will allow you to survive for.. whatevere this not have sense... just like life... 💀

7 darkest day to die - 7dtd but in medieval- well halabards at least are better that sledgehammer but everything is expensive 

7000 days to die - 7dtd but on alien  planet - aliens, zombie colonists and man eating plants!

crossovers - payday 2 : 7 dtd - 7 days of heist - your team are going to rob the duke - famouse criminal boss but zombie outbrake beggins and everything going wrong

dying light and 7dtd : typical 7dtd buut in haram - and night are more dangerouse !

So options are endless . you don't need to pay me for this  ideas i done this volunteary . just add me to credits in spin off . you are welcome XD

i will write this same thing as always : there is not enough zombie variants so i can spend a day making descriptions how they could looks like , how to work where can they suit etc if it can help   😭😭

I know we aren't supposed to talk about the "m" word on here but I gotta say I've been experimenting with them, war of the walkers, gna, etc...and I gotta say, I much prefer vanilla.

Once 7 Days goes gold and the Fun Pimps abandon it, I expect some really fantastic mods to come out and keep this game alive for another decade. But right now it's hard for modders to deal with a game that isn't feature locked and has constantly changing code with every update. I think Steam Workshop support when it comes will be huge too, making it easy for players to just subscribe to new POIs, vehicles, enemies, etc.
