PC Developer Discussions: Alpha 17

[69WithAzombie]

We actually added a function to save your base or selected area as a POI. I'm not sure how to use it and stuff yet, but if someone made a cool POI in a real game, you could save it as a POI and share with others, restore your base because of an update breaking stuff, etc.

Can one of the Devs or Mods talks about this further? Im sure Slann and his Slannhaten mod would be very happy about this!

Nice to know, thanks! Ok, back to good ol' A16.4 for me until next week.

I actually declined playing with one of the streamers; I want to experience A17e on my own, with no distractions. Alright, I'll tell her that I'm a backup in case the other player can't make it.

Monday?! but but but, I am supposed to kill Sean Bean on Monday! there is a live event for it and everything on hitman 2!

I will have to somehow squeeze that in while downloading the new 7dtd. Someone quick, put in a mod with a sean bean zombie!

I think it would be nice to already have your own house when starting. Have the house simble so we know where it is and the house should be broken down and small and full of zombies so we have a reason to repair it and expand it. This way at least it can create a back story of why you start in the open. Zombies invaded over night and you ran. Simple

Had in mind that while watching the clock, not the calendar.

And be ready for the horde of feedbackers man, are you ?

 

[beerfly]

Well.. Monday will probably be a Tuesday here in Europe.. And guess who's on a business-trip then? xD

I know, and I am a monitor away to play it when released, but job is job. Be brave

I don't know about a17, but in a16 if you play the Navezgane map then you spawn in front of a house. It would be cool if they did that in Random Gen too.

Found the PS4 gameplay trailer: https://youtu.be/Hki0qBIgPiA. Don't you guys think it would be pretty cool to have this music as an alternate main menu theme if possible? :smile-new:

Preferably through RAM and RAM and RAM. Watch out for memory dumps.

Then if you don't watch out there's a 9-month development for a new alpha.

Super excited about this! Thank you for adding this function to the base game:hug: I can't wait to see how it's actually done:cheerful:

I have one question, that might seem silly to some given all that's been added to Navezgane. Will I be able to make my saved map load in A17. I realize that with the changes in the leveling system my character file is probably corrupt, I just want to save some of the stuff I built in Navezgane. I spent a huge amount of time collecting stuff to build a castle in the Desert across the bridges to Departure, and it took FOREVER to build in Survival. I realize that if it loads then I won't get the new POIs, but I don't really mind starting a new CHARACTER with an old map.

I doubt it will load. A lot of blocks have changed and how blocks are referenced by maps has changed.

 

[Burakin]

Wait.. I did pre-order.. on PC. We can play tonight?????????? Their release schedule is so complicated..

lol....now you just taking the piss.

 

[faatal]

I'd much rather get as many bugs squashed as possible and get it out there than get a list of what in the update. They can save that for next week when the general public gets it.

We are fixing bugs and working on release notes.

Notes? More like a novel, I'm thinking war and peace.
