Sure... It's scheduled to hit Alpha1 in the 4th quarter of 2018 (was planned for Q1).

It's success is by no means guaranteed.

You could also say Survive the Nights was also competition...

Lots of work will be required in both titles to even come close.

 
In response to 10716 : This forum could really use a quote mechanic ;)

In response to 10724 : Maybe, but Dead Matter is potentially way behind 7 Days to Die in terms of development; at the least it's too early to say. To be fair I haven't really looked into it yet.

 
Little do you know, but the spinning in circles thing actually causes gravitational vortexes that strengthen the blood moon. You'd know that if they had a story mode. =)

I told TFP they needed to move fast because their idea was just too good and competition would be coming.

Here's my Review from 2015

EARLY ACCESS REVIEW

Will be cloned because it's just too good of a game. Has everything I wanted in a game and they keep adding more content and improvements. Highly recommended!

In response to 12345: Woot! Lov'n A17 too man! The Airships really do make the game great and I thought I was just kidding!!

 
Can you make a sculpture from the concept? That's the true testament of story success...

I'm sure it could be done but the lead time on sculptures is worse than EA games. I could show you an "A1" version but it would just be a ball of clay. :) . I have, though, thought about doing Zombie miniatures and a version of my character all geared up with my favorite "go to" stuff.

That sounds sweet - I bet you could make some nice bank on the side doing something like this for streamers, forum members, etc. etc. Maybe even convince TFP to contract you to make official swag for them to sell...

All I have to say about the Gyrocopter is I'm glad the "Fun" in Fun Pimps is not dead!

Don't forget the full texture sculpture is a DLC that you have to buy... I mean since we're comparing it to EA games.

Not really, its not going to release for months, and then its going to be looking at years and years of development time just like every game. So it will be a rough state for the next 4-6 years.

It's also not voxel based so creative building is limited to reinforcing existing structures, you can't build your own, etc. So its not really that similar at all. Its more like H1Z1 or Survive the nights which are both bleh atm.

 
This escalate quickly from When A17 got release to what FunPimps do after Beta release. Those who are worried, it take at least 2-3 yrs to get out of Beta, not that funpimps are slow, but it is complex software to build with all ears to public criticism.

Also, I love to see another game from them, it is what they do, why stop on one. Just love this game,

 
I assume this was discussed already but is the gyro copter is 100% not going to make A17 or is it just not going to make the launch update of A17?

 
Yeah, usually because players think of TFP as an entity.TFP is like one person and can only effectively work on one thing.

It's just that it doesn't work like that...

TFP consists of multiple people and not all of them can even work on 7DTD at all times. I mean what would a concept artist do when the game is approaching beta? Think about it...

I think of you folks as a behemoth comprised of several bodies grafted into one. Like a fleshy Voltron.

Which is the reason the behemoth isn't going into 7DTD... it would expose your weaknesses.

Amirite??!?

I think they tried to make it tooooo big. Should have settled for 1 more block in height.
