I watched your horde night video madmole and I agree that the hunting rifle is much better at long range. My thoughts is to instead of making some metal spikes. Make a bunch of wood spikes or barbed wire. With more traps spread out it can slow down the zombies making it easier to hit them with the hunting rifle. That what I usually do.

 
leave his nuts out of this. unless those are your sweets

Ah lol awesome man :)

As a kid we had the Mad Magazine boardgame..

 
I think you did several times and each time it has been discussed a few pages later. Helper blocks was one of em, likely the largest. The last one had to do with difficulty that started another ____gate :D

I think all the cats are out of the bag already tbh.

 
off topic but I really liked the og theme for 7dtd it was quite cool my fav but the current one is my second best

that theme sounded real kickass but this one feels really horror based but never the less I like them both

no problem ;) it was always weird to build on top of spikes, however, then I can place wood frame to a wall and have a walkway 5-6 blocks long in any direction, same deal, unless you consider sticking wood frames to cobblestone as a bug too ;p

That can also be fixed (below allows two overhanging only) :

&lt;property name="stability_glue" value="12"/&gt;

&lt;property name="Mass" type="int" value="5"/&gt;

 
Stipe already beat Naganuu.
If DC wrestled Stipe more instead trading shots I think DC would have won again.

I think Cain injured his knee going for a takedown on Naganuu… disappointing fight. I'm not saying Cain would have won.. im just saying I wish it didn't play out the way it did -- I would have liked to have actually seen a fight.

But since then, Predator has been on a terror and cleaned out the division. I think he's fixed whatever went wrong in that first fight with Stipe. Stipe beat DC already too, so how is DC on a loss more deserving of a title fight than Predator who's cleaned out both former HW champs, and wrecked Blaydes, a guy who's been on an absolute terror except when fighting Predator. IMO Predator deserves the rematch title fight way more than DC does. If there is any doubt make Predator fight DC then, but UFC doesn't want another snore match like last time and Stipe DC is a guaranteed money maker.

Cains knee gave out because he was unconscious, Predator caught him and he got wobbly for a second and hurt his knee in that process. Nobody just falls over for no reason, I watched it in slow mo a bunch of times and he got caught, then his knee gave out.

 
@Madmole i have a question about the Gun that was on your twitter (the Gun that looks like a m16) is that planed on being added to A18 and what role will it take

 
I think you're joking, but I don't think it would matter much. Most of the time, you are placing your spikes near some wall and the frames would just be supported horizontally (minimally, but still supported) over the spikes.

I was just seeing if we'd get a spike gate :)

it will be added to alpha 18 yes (: and will be governed under endurance and then under machine gunner

 
Just watched Joel fighting the 21st day horde and I can see the cool noises that zombies used to make when alerted are back.

My most sincere thank you, madmole.

 
Nice, can't wait to play A18 but will say this....
You made a exit strategy but what if it got worse then it did for you? The exit to the tunnels would of been blocked off. Maybe dig into the ground a little more then make your tunnel. Also have it walled off so when they break into the lower half they can't just start climbing the ladder. This will give you time to get below them and run through the tunnel for a nice clean exit.

It was pretty shoddy that is why they got in. I'll buff the walls and entrance to the tunnel.

 
That was intense! I know this fact has been known for a while, but I'm just loving the fact that the zombies don't focus on just one block the entire time like they do in A17. ^^ The pipe bombs do seem a little too bouncy in my opinion, but I'll reserve that judgement for when I actually use them, plus they are supposed to be the poor man's grenade anyway. Overall, fantastic video as always. ^^

Yes IMO A18 never has a boring moment, they really surprised me how many there were already. I'll have R concrete up to the bars by the next horde, so that should slow them down. I have a pretty cool idea for a blade gauntlet (much more efficient than my last) but that might be 4 or 5 blood moons away.

 
hmm, for the pipe bombs, I think I will have a slant coming down to my base so the pipe bombs bounce and roll towards the zeds on the spikes.

Yeah a ramp design so they settle in the bottom of the V could work well. At least until you get contact nades.

 
No none of that. We're not interested in complicating the game right now. I was able to find time and remove the punishing effects of weather for now, we can add a more hardcore version in the future, at least now its reasonable.
In the cold you will burn more calories, so take lots of food with you.

In the heat you will burn more water, so take lots of fluids.

No more attribute debuffs or nasty things until we can do a full rewrite, but this new lite version might be good enough tbh. Starvation or dehydration can kill you so it might be fine as is.
Click to expand...
This is a great new change. So we will still experience temperature effects, but it can be dealt with more reasonably now. Those debuffs were too much, it took too much time/effort/levels/mods to finally get around them. This is more organic, but still comes at a cost, a rework I look forward to playing with once the Kraken gets here. Kudos.

I guess one can argue that DC is more deserving because he won the 1st fight, but I see your point. I'd love to see DC fight Naganuu, just because of the size difference.. it would be hilarious lol. I do like Naganou -- its always cool to have a massive scary heavyweight that can knock people out cold. DC is a good guy but he is kind of whiny for my taste.

I just watched the slo-mo. I think Im convinced it was the uppercut, not the knee. Though I don't hold Cain on as high a pedestal as DC does. I think they secretly make out after training :)
