PC Developer Discussions: Alpha 17

[archergod]

So how long does reworking the art in the game take, you guys think?

I interpret your question in difference sense, and try to use some math, suppose they have 1000 items and if they do like 10 items per day in reworking and testing, using 1 dev, and then using 2 dev they can finish it in 50 days.. .

Just kidding, I have no idea how long does it take .

I saw the gamestage calculation was simplified, how will it calculate for multiplayer? Just add them together?

I was thinking the same thing after my original post and then a friend of mine pops on and asks me when A17 is gonna drop so of course I went on a 30 minute explanation about everything that has happened recently haha and didn't edit my post to include that thought, I did tell him exactly what you said though so yeah we are on the same page.

You must be a very slow speaker

My system:

CPU: intel core i7 8700k 3.70GHz Water Cooled

GPU: AORUS GTX 1080 Ti 11GB

RAM: 32GB DDR4 3200MHz

SSD: Samsung 970 EVO M.2 250GB 3500/2300MBps R/W

I still can't max graphics with this, and even with low settings I can't get 60fps@1080p

Not to mention those times when the game drops to 10fps....

Can't wait for the optimizations of A17!!!

In regards to the derivable vehicles changes for A17:

Vehicles, Manufactured VS Jury-rigged
Note:

I am aware that devs have confirmed A17 drivable vehicles are crafted and assembled in a work bench then the complete vehicle is placed like a block.

I am not sure if this is TFPs intend this to be permanent.

I think TFP was onto a good thing with the way a minibike was assembled in A16.

I think that TFP should bring back A16 style vehicle assembly in a later alpha perhaps with some changes or expansions.

I think TFP are doing a great job with the jury-rigged vehicles.

Currently in 7DTD, manufactured vehicles cannot be driven and I think it’s been stated by devs that they never will be.

I think all manufactured vehicles should be drivable.

This is how I imagine that:

There is more to read from the above quote, but if you want to read on, it's best if you read my post before it for more context.

I think they said it was an alien virus that caused the outbreak, but I only think I remember that. It's been a good while, and I think story is likely on hold until they get the systems they want.Well, not totally on hold; in one of MM's gameplay videos he went through a house that belonged to a cult leader and said that some of the poi's will have backstory to them, so I dunno.

If it turns out to be a cult that summoned something wicked and vile, that would be awesome too

maybe he was doing his best to get the message across. You know, being very thorough that it'll be done when its done. Some people dont understand so they need it explained thoroughly

 

[art1336]

You're kidding right? We'll clear 300 pages between the streamers and release day alone. The posts get fast, furious and nonsensical as the release approaches.

I dun' know about fast, but they're already furious and nonsensical!

- - - Updated - - -

date is wrong is day first then month and then the year

Welcome to the forums.

Now get back to work!

mericans doesnt good at numbers. maybe this is the reason they cannot predict a release

I think the Allied Forces on D-Day would beg to differ.

But, meh, dogs are usually pretty poor at history, right?

and some still refuse to understand after the explanations... it doesnt matter... there will always be those that point to this and that and so forths... yet patience is a concept that very few practice.

doctors are good tho, they have lots of patience... ooops

Okay, so the Cult of C'thulu attempted to summon their extraplanar deity. What they got instead, however, was a parasitic alien race that seeks to encapsulate the known universe.

Our only hope is C'thulu.

Sorry if this has already been explained, been a while since I was able to go through all the posts.

One of the updates shows RGW are now 8000x8000. What is the current size?

10000x10000

Sad face. Why smaller?

Nah, that would not. I'am ok with tech/scientistic stuff, I'am not ok with magic. Not for 7DTD. If I'd want that, I'd play Minecraft. 7DTD should remain somewhat realistic, else, it would break immersion. If there were some stupid cult, next thing I'd expect is a magic wand. Goes bad with an AK.

Did someone miss the memo where, "Bigger is always better."

 

[unholyjoe]

noted.... Bigger Performance drops j/k of course or was i

 

[Ouch Quit It]

The smaller size allows the entire map to be rendered at the beginning of the game ...allowing better performance and less stutter the farther you are from 0,0 center

[NBornkilla]

wonder who in here have traveled the entire map ? or have used the entire map we have now ? , yeah alpha 17 will be smaller but will be better.
