You obviously do not understand the difference between art and plain construction. Could say that you're ignorant and arrogant too lol

Absolutely! Everyone has to make their own choices, 100% agree.
TFP make THEIR game any way they choose. They can listen or not to others, but if they are wise, they will build the game THEY will love and try to fit in stuff that others want as well.
If you aren't happy with that, you can play something else or try your hand at development. It really is an eye opener.

Thank you for the key, Joel, it was a nice surprise this morning. I am downloading the 3 gigas (it gives me time to read the 12 pages of NDA ^^).
Can a moderator create a topic for the bugs report?

Guppy? Can you provide any screenshot of those Voxel density settings (almost) working?
Thanks
Ah, yes. You get my point exactly. The starter and Planter boxes are the new coolness, and the crank and hoe are the old and obsolete. Your sack cloth and ashes have no effect on me. perhaps you could try self-flagellation. Might be good for a laugh.

Holy heck!!! I had to read like 80 pages! Glad that I finally caught up...
I'm really glad that ninja animals are being fixed. It was really annoying just to get destroyed by a wolf horde when there was nothing there 5 seconds ago. I hope they also won't be as aggressive to the players, it didn't really make sense that wolves would be as willing to attack as zombie dogs.
I'll miss the cans of water a bit, I used them when at my home base to preserve jars, but probably I will get used to it.
I'll trust what Madmole is saying about the biome zombie spawns, I hope you will still be able to look at the distance and see zombies walking around.
The farming debacle? First, people really, really OVERREACTED. Like damn, it was almost like The Fun Pimps decided to remove zombies from the game. Calm down people, you didn't even get to try A18 yet. I myself am 50/50 on this, while old farming had annoying hitboxes and it would suck when you would accidentally plant something on another crop, and then it would just drop to the ground and break. It would seem like it would be tedious to have a nice and big plot with the new planter boxes, however, I myself would prefer to have both methods in, but honestly, the old hoe method also allowed you to get tons of food too easily, so dunno.
I'm also a cat person MM, I love my cat.

Ha yes! I found that pretty ironic. They ended up settling just up the road from the house I first settled in when I started playing on the PS4 with my son. I run a solo game there for nostalgia purposes, so I am very familiar with the area. Looking forward to seeing how they react to all the new POI's!

Off topic: What you mentioned was a mistake of the devs of DayZ standalone for instance. What started out as a survival experience became a monotonous shooting experience. Bohemia neglected the survival part and went for hyper realistic gun simulations, weapon sway, reload animations and what not. By now they have quite realistic guns, but noone plays the game anymore, because there basically is nothing to play for. Guns are cool, but cannot make up for a lack of content.
This experience sort of always makes me cringe when I see other content simplified and in turn gun stuff added, maybe that is why I am sensitive to stuff being "streamlined"
I know I am sort of biased there, but I basically love weapon variety, I just wish it doesn't come at the cost of survival, building and crafting.
7D2D has the biggest potential of any game I ever played, so I fullheartedly hope it uses as much of this potential as it possibly can.
Sorry for heading a bit off topic and good day to you all.

Oh we are getting close, I want to say great job the fun pimp and joel for an amazing game
Quick question on A18 and future @madmole
1 will the camp fire heat you again ? why it's not doing it anymore ? this is the kind of cool details i like in a survival game, any chance to add
more features like this ?
2 You said in the past that you were not going to add more firearm weapons cause you want this to remain a survival game and not a zombie
shooter, what brought you to add an M60 to the game ?
3 Will you add back what you cut from the game for the sake of performance and tweaking after fixing the major aspects of the game ?
4 Is there ever gonna be an update introducing whole new set of items, enemies, entities, veichle etc. enlarging the entire gameplay itself ?

What has been cut from the game? Please dont go on with this Stray-Zombie Discussion. This is as dead as Zombies itself and got cleared up multiple times.

As a member of this rare mutation I must confess that messing with gingers is akin to playing with fire. We have the reputation for good reason.
Anyone who knows Scotland's history was surely amused by "The Wall" in Game of Thrones, we know where ol' George got the idea. After the Romans conquered England, and most of Europe, they sent their 9th Legion north. They made the mistake of going beyond Hadrians Wall...
The 9th Legion was never seen again.
It was an actual wall from sea to sea, just like in GoT, just much much shorter, but was still a real thing. I was extra amused that so many of the wildlings in the show were actual gingers, it's like Martin wasn't even trying to hide where he got the inspiration from. They even filmed up there quite a bit.
Also Braveheart, though that was a later attempt.
Avoiding such disaster is easy though, if a ginger draws a line: don't cross it. Simple, other than that we make good company. And ginger women, well, just ask Genosis, he knows.
And for the love of geography most of us are Scottish, I'm tired of everyone thinking I'm Irish all the time.
