VERY bad move here. MANY streamers love tier 5's and do them as groups. Its almost the ONLY thing you have that is considered end game content. People literally GEAR UP to do these, and look forward to them. I know things grow boring for you around Day 80-ish but you DO have a large audience even outside of this forum that continues well past that day.
I get its not your bag of tricks. Turrets arent mine. But Streamers, Modders, Multiplayer everyone loves these. I dont see the benefit at all to just abandon them.
I thought we were getting T6 quests eventually? Is that no longer on the table?
Um... where does it say that? I read the updates pages.I guess real men don't read the instructions to start a new game either
But I guess that's a given with experimental.
Speaking of institutions. When were you (or somebody) going to update the STEAM page?
It could use an update or three.

Maybe you could add a 300% speed boost to crawlers?I don't really know if a 5% boost is enough for the average fast ones to catch you. I just guessed and moved on, so might need another 5% or 10%. You will find out.
Trust me, it would be hilarious. /jk

I was testing a new build today on my HD 5770 1 GB VRAM relic from 10 years ago and it looks fine at Half texture quality. It can manage 22+ FPS outside if I turn off distant terrain (gfx dt 0).Cool I knew i wasn't going crazy. so glad it got fixed all those affected will be happy.. thank you!!! :cocksure: I started doubting myself for a while after reading how you explained the change, I even deleted the report I made doubting so much lol.
I made this comment early on in that thread "Cool. glad I could help, lets see how long until someone reports it and the TFP figures out its streaming." Took less than 24 hours
I agree with this. T5 are not neccssarily for single players, but 4 co-op players (and I assume with 8 players it is even worse) need breathing room. And there needs to be some more variety in that class.

The bicycle, the good and bad
I really like the bicycle in the game. I have been using it for awhile now and it's a lot of fun. Plus it's great for getting around.
But in Alpha 18, both the horn and basket have been removed. While the horn didn't really do anything (sadly). You can't carry any additional loot other than what's on your person.
I have been told that it will be added to mods latter, (hopefully soon).
Hunting with the bicycle hasn't changed much. You can damage enemy's again but now predators attack you, if they can.
The one thing that I learned is that when playing chicken with them, the bicycle wins every time. But that doesn't mean that you don't get hurt, it happens, sometimes. This occurs with both predators and zombies
But the bad thing about running over target is that you won't get any experience points when you kill it. So it's best to dismount and finish it off.
It can be a great help with really tough things like boars. It's hilarious watching the rag-doll animation to. But try not to get too fixed on it or you might just run into something. A good tactic is to hit the zombie with the bicycle. Then quickly dismount and attack it when it's down.
Also the bicycle is still much faster than on foot especially if you are carrying a full load of gear and loot.
Again the bicycle is surprisingly durable, even when off road and can handle really rough terrain.
I would really like to see the horn make a comeback and to have a use in the game. Please! I want to use it to annoy zombies.
