Yes, we would not replace 3rd with 1st, since i prefer 3rd for the all around visibility. 1st would be an extra.
The camera blends now. Not as jarring.

Happy to hear! I think you Pimps have the best survival game ever in your creative hands! I can't wait to play A17e! Keep up the amazing work

I do not understand your complex hints. Tell me please, can I ride a jeep from the first person?

 
ok, normally id just scroll on by but this one is bothering me to no end.

So you like Paula A-ghoul. ;)

 
Fataal, is there any surprise feature in A17 that no one has spoken of? :strawberry: Sorry for bad english

Yes, in order to boost immersion, when you die in game, you also die in real life.

Immersion warriors will never be happier.

 
Don't forget, they took away 1 block ingress because it made it easier to enter pois...

I will never forget that betrayal!

Correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't that a12 same alfa they introduced leveled gear but with a chance of finding rare.

I always thought that was a early progression gate also. Since it was more soft spots in the pois back then.

Find soft spot, climb through 1m hole get gear. That was my routine before a12 at least :)

Yes. There are many changes and we don't announce every little thing. Some are small. Some big.

 
I don't know if someone responded to this already, as I'm still trying to read through the backlog...but I would LOVE the introductions of actual seasons. Though it'd kill a certain aspect of "realism," I think it'd be great to have seasons that last either 15 or 30 days. Day 1 would start Spring, and you can plant and grow, as well as through Summer and Autumn. Maybe specific plants for specific seasons, though that might be harder to track. Would make winter, where you'd only have the fewest of cold-temp plants you could grow, a serious survival push. You'd have to be using heat, you'd risk drawing hordes to your base, and food and prep would pay off if you've done it, and you'd struggle hardcore if you haven't.
I don't know how difficult that would be to implement, but man...I'd LOVE it.

This was implemented in Starvation for 16.4. Give it a try and see what you think.

@faatal

Have to agree with Trankitas tho. Immersion is one of the best elements in 7dtd. Its a very immersive game. The 3rd person breaks that. I hope you guys will add an option for using 1st person in vehicles along the road in A17+, maybe before Alpha 18 in 2020. The ragdolling of zombies on car collisions and fixing of AI running in circles are all elements to improve immersion. 3rd person is kind of... weird in that regard. Also it gives you an advantage to see yourself in 3rd person. You can hide around a corner on your minibike and see people approaching who can't see you. Thats pretty much cheating by use of game mechanics. I hope this will be a server side option. Similar to how its done in DayZ, where theres 3 options. 1st person only, 3rd person only, or both.

 
About nerdpoling; as it was stated previously, even in the event that TFP removes that "cheat", players can still climb walls by using a stair step approach along the face of the wall. Or the other option would be to, instead of nerdpoling on one single stack of blocks, simply stack 2 columns together and just keep jumping up on the alternate block as you go up. So why should TFP waste the time and manpower on removing nerdpoling when they can fix other issues? If you don't personally like nerdpoling, don't do it. You don't want others you play with to do it, create a server for non-nerdpoling players.

I don't want nerdpoling removed from the game. I just want it acknowledged for the physical feat that it is by making it a perk. That seems fair. If I have spend a point to gain the ability to jump on top of a 2 meter wall it only seems consistent to spend a point to be able to jump and place a 1meter cube beneath me and then do it several times more with it all being perfectly balanced. I've seen Cirque du Soleil and the folks who can do stuff like nerdpoling spent at least a point of something to be able to do that...
