I actually asked about the repairs as well myself, didn't get a reply from anyone in the know though so I guess we'll find out when a17-e comes out if they don't talk about it before hand. As for combining there are a few things that they could do, maybe a bonus to the items entity/block damage by a % based on how many times it was combined? Maybe make it restricted to having have to be combined with the same quality tier. Or combining 2 of the same quality tier will result in the tier above, but you can only do this once, kinda like now u can only go up to +100 quality.
Just some ideas I had in my head, we won't know till they say something about it or a17-e is out.

P.s. the shotgun better have a silencer mod!

The repairing and combining mechanic is something I am very curious about also.

I hope for combining there is a cap on it, like you said. And that it can only be done once.

So you combine X and Y and get Z as a result. Z can not be combined with anything.

In my opinion that would balance it nicely.

There was an australian movie with zombie sheeps that drive a pickup truck over a hillcliff. I don`t want to run in front of my own Jeepie..

Btw what movie are you talking about is in the making ?

Zombie sheep huh? Yea I think ill skip that one lol.

To say 'That is a movie in the making' is like saying 'Someone should take that idea and make it into a movie'. Not that it IS being made into one. It is slang.

 
Offtopic: will vehicles get damage from smashing them, or from being shot or hit by angry zombie girl, because you rejected her ?

 
Passengers will probably not be in A17. It is still buggy and Pathing/AI and other bug fixing is higher priority.

@Gamida: faatal posted a few posts before the one you quoted and said that there wouldn’t be passenger support in A17.

ok, got it. my ketchup is not strong....

but my onions really seem to be by all these tears...

 
Anyone analyzed the red hp bar and figured out how much in % is left? Seems like the blue bar dings about once in 10 days intervals ish. if im estimating around september/october release that wouldnt been to far off i guess.

Seems reasonable barring any last minute super dramatic critical hit that may or may not be planned if the release somehow comes earlier than September/October....

 
Im hoping that it dosnt come sooner. id rather them spend longer and making sure everything is perfect first :p

Dont want jeeps to be the new minibike problem on the servers

There is usually first a experimental phase, where you can opt in to play the unstable wonky version and help squish some bugs, before the official stable version is released.

@Roland Now I just wonder if the Red Bar show progress towards stable release, or the experimental release ?

 
Doesn't seem like much. At least the blue bar is growing again.

So you went from ' didn't move' to ' Doesn't seem like much'.

It is all down to expectations. If your expectations are not in line with what is really happening you will constantly be disappointed.

It is moving quite well and they said it would not be out this summer unless there was a break through and yet people still want the bar to move 2 inches every time it moves.

If you set your expectation for a fall release, like Roland just eluded to, then you should have a much better time with how much the bar is moving.
