Now that we have set a date for the release. I wonder if we are any clearer on the time. Living in Europe, so im mostly wondering if its a Monday or Tuesday release for us in the old world

Probably a Tuesday I reckon. Last time they released at Monday over there, it was Tuesday night over here.

They said they will release Monday noon (they follow CST /USA time) so calculate based on it, that is tuesday for me as I live in India.

If they release at 12 local that will be 18-20 here in europe so thatd be good news!

That depends on whether they will find some issues with the streamer version. I think it's safer to assume that you'll be able to play on Tuesday.

 
12 local is for streamers today isn't it? When it is released to the public on Monday won't it be at a later time of the day. I thought it was last experimental.

I don't really expect bug reports from streamers.

They have a completely different job: Being entertaining and interacting with chat.

I agree, SnowDog doesn't need to put in his tongue anywhere.

 
From the release notes: "We have removed the perk books and ingredient based schematics from the game."

Hang on, weren't they just added? Or am I thinking of different perk books?

Thanks for leaving some option for those of us who love the game but suffer vertigo from the default FOV. In my case it only started happened to me about 18 months ago, until then I was fine. Anything less than 90 makes me ill now.

Also, I can only watch your videos in short bursts (or in a tiny screen) because of that issue (motion blur makes it worse, if you play with that on). Nonetheless, thanks for making them, they provide great conversation topics and information. Though watching you do horde nights next to and in your crafting area is just crazy to me :-)

I do hope we can get a slider back at some point though.

Also, the INT build might get me back to building bases with traps instead of doing blood moons on foot. The thrill of being chased all night while smacking Z's around might be something I can skip for a fun trap setup now that I won't miss any XP or loot.

I found turning off reflection and sunshafts really helped with my motion sickness. Also I now cast youtubes to tv to watch play throughs which happens.

 
Day 4

iv built a shelter and found me a Pistol

iv found no food still but i have water! but is dirty

and iv found a steel pick

i only have 3 days before the horde called A18

 
Spawn probability of radiated zombies is not scaling - what does it mean really? It is in fixed issues. I have always face more radiated zombies with higher gs, so it is fixed for other payers who had different situation?

 
Fair enough. I play always walk, myself, but thought I'd ask out of interest.

@faatal, how does the new rage function work in relation to the always walk zeds settings?

In my mind, it might be fun to try the following config.

Zeds always walk except on BM and ferals (Rage enabled)

You're thinking of the magazines that gave the player 30 minute buffs, and that mod schematics. (Mod schematics are readable in A18, and the mod schematics (since there aren't any) aren't part of the ingredient list for creating said mods.)
