Really? My father only has one leg, something he has a fantastic sense of humour about, should we remove dismemberment?
True story. Visited him in the hospital after a major operation, the man damn near died. We get to the ward and he's sat in a chair rigged up to a ton of machinery that's making sounds like an eighties arcade. The conversation went like this...
Me: Are you alright? You look like you've been drinking for three days straight!
Dad: We are Borg, resistance is futile.

Do you ever plan to do some changes to first person animations? You mention Fallout 4 and it made me think of little things like the way guns swayed when you turn and your weapon lowered when you ran. Relatively minor things that really add to the immersion and make you feel connected with your character as well as make combat feel more fluid and organic.
The power of animations is something that quite often gets overlooked, even in Fallout 4. I'm not sure if you ever modded it but this one hunting rifle animation changed the whole experience and made it my go too weapon (I never liked it before). I couldn't play without it once I tried it for the first time and it made me realise how bad some of the animations in Fallout 4 were as well as how much of a different good animations added to the experience.
If you guys truly are making combat the main source of XP and levelling then everything that can be done to make combat more dynamic and satisfying should take priority.

Will we be able to use C4 like a raiding tool? This got me a bit excited because I played quite heavily on PVP servers but one of the things that put me off was raiding. No kidding one night me and the team that I was playing with spent 8 hours augering steel and concrete blocks to get in somebodies base. It would be good if C4 was balanced into the game so that it was rare and hard to craft but could be used to penetrate walls more effectively than the current tool set. Also we'd need to be able to place it within somebodies LCB :-D

There it is... rage of the day... it's a pity I'll be at work for this one.
I'll start...
<clears throat>
Killing zombies is not meant to be the main source of XP, that's an imbalance. Mining with perks is faster and safer than getting xp from zombies in later levels.
That said, I did find myself farming zombie heads to level up during the early stages of 17.3 but once I had a few perks and some decent tools I switched to mining as the main source.
Anyone else finding progression a little fast in 17.3? I'm on day 12, not even the second horde night, and I'm on level 23. Is that just me accidentally power-gaming or does anyone else think this?

Why does it seem that we have gone backwards with AI...I have been playing 17.3 and find random hordes just staying in an area jumping next to obstacles that arent even in front of them. 2 years of waiting ...When will temperature get fixed? Its so annoying playing have your toon be heat stroking out with nothing on.

You're fine, Before day 7 in A17.2 I would be level 30-40 cause I love to go out and rampage every POI I saw. Thus resulting in me fighting wayyyy harder hordes early on.

Anyone else happy that dismemberment works in A17.3? I chopped 3 heads off on the first day. I just need A18 in my life though, Haven't ran into a single bug in A17.3 yet, it's only a matter of time.

Good morning people, yesterday remained in the inkwell some more questions for developers
-New Systems-
* Can we domestic Wolves? (use them as friends and cargo donkey)
* We can put Tipoy to the M60 Heavy Machine Gun and put it on a block and leave it there and the horde night to be able to shoot it (it would be super great to be able to do that) (you can put it as the turret but not automatic)
* The fishing is something discarded for Alfas fusturas? (I would add more variety of meals salmon fillet, trout, etc. and be able to prepare positions caceras for some Buff)
-Decoration, aesthetics, decoration and interaction-
* Wall support for weapons (decoration type skyrim)
* We can sit on the chair by pressing the letter "E" (enjoy the destroyed world from the security of your base)
* Double doors (2 blocks wide)
* Can manufacture flashlights, moving lights, and light elements that were added to the game
-New vehicles-
* We could add the Air Balloon to the A18
* Could a quasi be added?
* Could a helicopter be added? (I know there are mods for this, but it's better if it's original from the game)
-Receives, new things and additions-
* Can you add more variety to the crops? (Carrot, Onion, Wheat) (wheat to make flour and make cakes, etc.)
* Make liquors and new Te (new buff)
* Mom's cookies? (legendary buff)
-The boy's dream-
* Add in all the vines the most abundant gold and silver ore?
* Add to the radio the crafteo, which passes music add and to which we can add from the folder of installation, and that warns attacks of hordes or missions of the trader? (wow that would be great)
* Radio station for the 4x4 (it would transmit the same radio signal)
* Force lock with ganzua (system similar to that of Skyrim)
Excuse the amount of questions is my instinct for future journalist

Speaking of the turret for the intellect build, I wonder if that might be the new meta for horde night? Have at least one other person specializing in int, to have turret support.
Hm, I guess it depends on the fire rate and how much the int's turret will have. Because now I imagine, why use a gun and horde ammo for horde night, when you could instead specialize into intellect. Horde scrap iron which can be found quite abundantly by wrenching cars or hitting the small boulders and scrapping the iron. Then using the turret for horde night.
@madmole, I would suggest glass and nails as being alternative ammo types for the turret. With scrap iron being the normal ammo. Glass would add bleeding debuff. Nails would add stagger debuff.
Also, would you consider adding in scrap iron tools? Especially since scrap iron in general is an abundant resource. I see as a way to have an alternative to the stone axe when you first start, with the downside being that it would use more stamina. I would have the tech go from primitive tools (stone and wood) > primitive+ tools (scrap tools and iron club) > modern tools (iron and steel) > industrial tools (auger and chainsaw).
