joe... the bigger one has red eyes and in the dark you can see them from a distance as if glowing
and yes, you can compare them to the size of bears in the snow biome. especially when you can see them both during the day at the same time. well being color blind may be helping me out on the whole eye color. see the little wolf has dark eyes

So, stealth seems broken. All padded armor, moving around crouched at night with all the books and a point in From The Shadows but I can't through a single room in a tier 2 POI without disturbing zombies. Even wrenching inconvenient lights beforehand. I'll take it for granted that this will be looked into but meanwhile...
Can we get rid of the need for a person to be crouched to get the sneak attack bonus? Crouching helps avoid detection, but if the zombie has not detected you then you shouldn't be penalized for not being crouched. It's not like there's any bonus to hitting an aware zombie while crouched. Reward the act of sneaking, not the mechanic of crouching.

Have the Dobermans (dogs) been replaced by Poodles ?, they do not seem to be as ruthless now. There animation attack sequence seems to have a pause for a good 1.5 seconds before they bite again which is odd.
They should be friggin tearing a new one into us none stop bite bite bite chomp bite bite bite etc etc etc

Intellect / junk turrets falling through floors rants aside, a20 is great! The world generation alone makes it one of the best alpha's we've had of all time imo
They seem a bit weaker which imo is fine because dogs were the freaking deadliest enemy in the game bar none before. You would just hear "DOOOOOG" being shrieked from across a PoI when someone encountered one, followed by the person dying or "anyone have two splints, three antibotics, a vitamin, and a painkiller?"
Dog weaker, boar aggro on sight, it all balances out. Madmole has been stealth buffing the bear as well, and that thing is a holy terror, I got absolutely shredded by one while wearing almost full steel armor with an autoshotgun. I *did* die one of my only deaths to a stupid dire wolf too

There is a check against loading old saves in the newer versions. Like A20 should theoretically not allow loading A19 saves (didn't test it myself, but have seen reports of it).
As for RWG generating world only into Empty folders, UGH. It would make testing RWG a pain. Example I find a map where the seed produces a good biome layout, so then I play around with the other settings. I would hate to have to also manually go and delete each time after generation before I could try a new set of settings.
However, perhaps it would be nice if the game appended a version to the name of the Generated World when it saved (which I do manually once I have decided to keep a world so the name looks like 'Nevosejo County.A20b218'

Yeah, I can confirm that, I wanted to take a look at my old world, but I guess it is best to let the past go.

They seems to spawn in packs more consistently now though and big packs, bigger packs than ever before and they sneak up on you, silent, silently crouching stealthily through the tall grass like a pack of ravenous dingos, Hyenas with an unsatiable appetite for your flesh.
Face your death like a brave lamb facing slaughter, for to run is to die a$$ first

Hey guys I wanted to mention that I'm really glad feral zombies now spawn in the snow biome cities not just in the night but the day and im really glad for this change because to me before the cities where boring and not dangerous but now the ferals really ramp up the difficulty I'm doing s survivalist difficult playthrough and I felt that sense of urgency to get to safety in which I haven't felt that in 7 days to die for a long time maybe eventually the wasteland will periodically spawn radiated zombies eventually I think that would be the perfect thing for that biome

Heads up to QA: I reported a KeyNotFoundException. I saw that mentioned on the Known Issues list but there it said it happens when you generate a second world after generating a first. My report happens generating a world with an empty GeneratedWorlds as the first thing from starting 7 Days to Die.

Yep.
AFAIK, same animations, same timing. There are random delays in AI tasks when created, so maybe a slow dog?

They have the mutated guy at least right now but he is relatively easy to kill.

In my 4 games of A20B238 thus far I have had all padded and 1 point Shadows and 0-2 book perks and have been able to complete many poi's (day and night not questing, and day and night quests) without waking ANY z's. Even axing any trash piles before I step on them. Have even removed doors with axe or pickaxe. Most of the time weapon is primitive bow, or if lucky, a suppressed rifle. Although there does seem to be a few poi's that have 'trip' points that wake up all remaining z's. (Spoiler: Roof mid point of cabinet maker could be one.)
Have also had regular wolves and DIRE wolves not see me from 2 blocks away at night. (The first time with a dire I almost... - cuz I only had bow and club. Just kept backing up and 7 headshots later, 35 meat.)
Have also started very near towns and been attacked by dog(s). Always seemed to be a doghouse nearby. Also have been attacked by a regular wolf late in the first day.
Still nothing is a s scary (for me) when I am out and about (with no vehicle - and almost no buildings nearby) when 2 bears (could swear once was non-z versions of bears) and a pack of dogs shows up...
