PC Developer Discussions: Alpha 17

[saintones]

KingSlayer its been some time bro. I miss the Q & A but things are pretty busy. Everyone is hyper focused on finishing A17. I'm super excited. I'm working on finishing up the new perk and attribute system. A lot of perks are unique instead of boring more magnitude change at a higher tier. We now have a Master Chef perk tree! One of the coolest recipes is Sham Chowder. You can take those crappy Sham sandwiches and make a very filling nutritious meal from crappy ingredients

Awesome..I was hoping you guys were going to mess with recipes, I figured it would be a ways down the road..Any chance you are considering an Epic recipe that would be difficult to collect, sort of like top tier weapons or gear?

Yes. The new beer cooler texture is amazing.

Awesome so that means that when you decide to release a new video it should look a lot nicer than the last one. I’m really liking the visual changes so far.

Are ground textures being redone as well?

Gawd I hope so because the old ground textures are just bad.

This sounds awesome I can't wait!!!!!!!!!

 

[kamer1337]

character models will be look better too?

 

[Swiftpaw]

Wait wait, what? wolf friends? please oh please tell me how you did that, lol. Have it down to where you can have 1 follow you and help and all? maybe even heal him up by giving him food? I will definitely be looking for that mod A17, you can bet on it. Basically sounds like TFP's whole wolf pet talked about in early for A17.

Friendly Animals mod for A16 is now released! ^n.n^

The mod makes bears and wolves fight zombies too along side you. Other non-zombie animals may be added later.

Bugs in alpha 17?

I have brought this up and it was mostly met with jokes. Which is ok I was mainly joking about it.

But we have heard for well over a month that the release was delayed due to bugs and bug fixing. I understand this. I don't like it but I understand it. I know these were "game breaking" bugs. But I have to assume that not everyone was working on them so, were the other regular bugs being fixed too?

My question is how buggy of a release are we looking at?

More or less buggy than a 16 launch?

 

[Jackelmyer]

That's interesting and pretty cool. I knew you were doing some polishing, but I thought the majority of A17 was going to be guts polishing/rework. That makes A17 more interesting to see.

I'd kinda rather you guys not do videos if you're really tackling the look of the game that much to tackle the smaller textures too. So when we get it, we'll get that new game smell.

 

[KRISMA]

15.99 per build!

I would pay it for every major update like A17, i love the fact that this game is so cheap and not made just to earn money, but at the same time i think you guys could make alot more revenue if you wanted to.

this game in my opinion is amazing and one of a kind.

No way to compare something old with something new. Lots of new stuff is in and there is more than enough info in first post.

This game is a very unique animal it is done by a very small privately owned company who make boat loads of money on it and feels a type of loyalty to their fans.

It's great for the the final product and support. It's less than great for timelines.

But it's a very rare experience.

Lots of bugs. It'd be silly to expect otherwise from an experimental release, especially one in which pretty much all systems have been completely overhauled under the hood.

McGregor or Kabib?

 

[beerfly]

McGregor or Kabib?

Or Zombeer.

You know, zombeer a day, keeps the zombies away.

 

[JamsCB]

Soon.You have to adjust anyway. From what I understand switching from ignore-girlfriend-to-play-7Days is a bit different from ignore-wife-to-play-7Days.

That's the beauty of having wife-plays-7Days-with-you!

 

[Kalex]

ignore-wife-to-play-7Days2d is most dangerous adventure i ever can take. may be even life threatening.

Fortunately for my husband, I play the game too.

Sounds like Rambo stew, where the only man capable of stomaching such has killed thousands of bad guys in ever-increasingly creative ways, lol. Not even a billy goat would eat that!

 

[Pizzalicious]

Not sure how i feel about moldy soup
