PC Anyone else feel 1.0 is a major downgrade to the game?

My biggest issue is with the removal of clothes. The starter armor looks SO BAD. I was previously excited to find a tshirt & jeans. I wish they brought clothes in as mods so we wouldn't look so goofy. Some of the armor sets are great, but the intial one is pretty terrible looking.

You move away from that pretty quickly.  There's a lot of armor to be found.  And crafting it is easy if you're getting the magazines and have a workbench.

 
So far my opnion of A22/1.0 is it feels like a update that has no purpose other than to make a already slow game, even more mind numbingly slow. Everything I do just feels way slower now, and it already was kinda bad for this before, but now its even worse. I doubt i'll get very far, as I am pretty bored already of 1.0 and it just came out, this has never happened with any other alpha.


Already slow? If you min/maxed the game or even just spammed quests nothing could touch you anymore at day 28 before you even get fully lasting blood moons. And yes, that´s with difficulty turned way up and max zombies hordenight.

Now i don´t have the time to play for another 10 days, but if it is slower that is good.

One thing i can already say it that the shared quest progression is kinda meh. But not for vanilla, i don´t mind it there i think. Just depends on how the overhaul mods will handle it. With challenging difficulty settings in DF or War3zUK you don´t wanna be stuck in T1 for ages in MP for example.

The stupid zombie rage is also causing me some grief, especially when a biker suddendly just sprints at me, not much I can do but run early game. Pretty much EVERYTIME I get hit its always a cheapshot from the rage mechanic, and it is a cheapshot as its BS how they can suddendly just speed up out of no where. Pretty much every overhaul I played in a21 has removed it as they all feel its a stupid unneeded mechanic. I'd really love options to toggle stuff like this on/off in the game maybe in the advanced settings section. I'd deff be shutting the rage off, as I am tired of all the cheapshots. Bikers, Big Momma and Bowlers (aka tourists) usually have 500-600 hp minimum. They take forever to kill, hit like trucks too even on warrior with about 40 armor rating.

+1 feels like downgrade with ruined coop experience with this new traiders and armor system. Each character will look like the clown from Cyberpunk 2077 before the changes. Now everyone will run around with mixed medium/heavy armor and a propeller cap on their head for exp.

 
Downgrade not really. Improvement? Definitely not. 

I like that we are getting tougher zombies sooner and they pop up more often in the infested quests. Folks need to actually put points into damage boosting stats or lower difficulty to nomad. Mind you I'm on warrior and while they do feel a bit tanky it isn't a massive difference but I do got strength 7 and pummel Pete 3, along with a tier 5 club and some mods added.  Upgrade your gear and add mods folks.

Infested caches still feel OP as with how much ammo you get.

Food and water is still ridiculously easy to obtain.

The armor system needs a overhaul with the stats and set bonuses they give.

Trader feel more balanced but having them selling crucibles is dumb. Anvil and bellows is fine crucible to make steel which is a big game changer no.

Challenge descriptions need to be fixed to actually specify what will count as progress towards the challenge. I heard that's being fixed though when they push the update out.

I'm enjoying the update so far but honestly they should have just called this alpha 22 instead of the full release version 1.0 because this still feels like it's in early access.  Especially when you consider how much balance and work the game still needs but I guess thats how games get released these days 

 
I dunno what all yall be smokin, but this update feels fresh af. Just got through day 7 horde and it was a hoot! Games running smooth as butter.
