On 3rd person gameplay chatter...
Switching to vehicles its fine and needed, but for regular game play I think its a waste of development time. The game is just way more scary and more immersive in first person.
Maybe just push 3rd person play to after gold if you guys have a NEED to put it in?

We’re talking about a situation that happens exclusively during horde night when the zombies are feral and gps to you—about 20 minutes out of 7 hours of gameplay.
What do you do now when you have to pee during the blood moon event? Whatever that is you could still do that and just choose not to crouch in the shadow of a tree out in the open during hordenight when you feel the pressure on your bladder.

This^^ My main language is Spanish and I post in english anyways, you're prioritizing yourself over anyone that doesn't speak Russian. (If you read the forum's rules it says you can't post in any other language that isn't english. And if you do, you must post it under the "spoiler tag")

"Heat" isn't heat. It is a game mechanic to simulate many things. The randomness of lots of zombies in the world without having to spawn them all, etc.
The chances of detection by zombies overtime because of the small random noises and movement any living person makes could be simulated the same way.
Well, ok. This would be a first: A mildly complex mechanism that only works on horde night. Not impossible per se, it can be explained in the description of the perk, but a little hockey.
And why should I take the perk, if it only works about 20 minutes out of 7 hours? As a book type power or additional bonus to the perk ok, but the final stealth perk better have something compelling that works the rest of the time.
Note, I AM very often stealth player and don't feel particularily handicapped on horde night (but also not playing on insane, maybe that would be different then. Also I naturally have enough points in middle game to also spend them on weapon(s) of choice).
Sure, a method to get stealth boni in horde night might be nice. But:
1) if I have to do a 5 second mini-game before I get such a bonus while my compatriots get 20 headshots in, I won't really be contributing to the defense effort, right? Horrible dps for the satisfaction to have roleplayed stealth a little. It could work if shooting (at least with silent or silenced weapons) does have a big change to keep you in stealth.
2) it would totally ignore that I'm the one who saved lots of ammo throughout the week to spend it on horde night.
Naturally this is just my personal impression of it, I see some potential, but as is I wouldn't take that perk

It's impossible to sense scent though meters of dirt and stone.
Moreover why would zombies have better sense of smell than what they were, humans?
And why would it be better than dogs?
Maybe ask the zombie that claws through cement and steel why he has better claws than what he had as human?
Normally he would answer you that he is infused with BLARGH, a cosmic force that will make earth a living hell. Luckily for your sanity he is not used to talking to his food.

Madmole, thanks for your video.
I have a question about C4.
Is it planned to enable players to activate C4 after installation and before that set the different delay time (C4 has a screen and buttons, this would be logical)?
And the second question: will we have the opportunity to pick up our C4 after installation?

Fear not. By using a double negative you firmly present yourself as one of the foremost critical thinkers of your generation. :cocksure:

How did you get the idea that balance means that everything should be able to be utilized for every situation? This is anything but balance. Also that "very specific way" of playing involves engaging in one of the game's core aspects and, without exaggeration, half of the game's content, so the player shouldn't just be able to ignore it if he doesn't opt out of it via the menu options.
Depends - do you want to completely dumb down any need for TD in the game?
