Nah it experimental, they'll probably just need to fix a few things for the first of many experimental releases, I think it'll still come out Monday.

Depends on their standards.
Falling through the earth on mini ike use to be in the release of alpha. Along with duping seeing through the earth and bad hitboxes.
But I'm a17 experimental looks more polished than earlier alpha.
The onlything I'm worried about is if they have fixed a bug that was reported during streaming event. And that fix creates a game breaking bug.

It might just be ´shortage of memory´ instead of leak, though leak would exarcebate the problem.
You have assets loaded and travelling - not all assets get unloaded as they are still necessary, but new ones vie for a place (like for instance moving into an area with (larger) buildings. Then your computer starts using disk space to swap out, but ofcourse that can't keep up all the time and you get these 'slowdown ripples' untill it catches up - it will run smoothly again till it tries to load more assets then it can and it will happen again. Travelling fast, like on a minibike, will increase the %age of time that happens.
At least thats what I'm experiencing though I'm currently (sorta)( playing a mod - which uses more ram (but i got 8 to start with - modded 7d2d takes up 6.5).
Best quick fix, apart from getting more memory, is to boot up, dont start any unnecessary or background programs and run that way. Lotsa mem gets used by that (got a fancy rgb keyboard for instance - the profile and lighting softwar emight take up as much as 100 mb RAM, many more such programs - especially leaving lots tabs open in browser eats mem like crazy too)
Maybe quiting and restarting game every night when safe in base will help if it is indeed a leaky issue.
trying to help - if they is no new info for you, please ignore

never knew that! thanks. Might be something to experiment with. I'm ok looking at a screen but VR makes me almost puke oftentimes (not that that bears relevance to 7d2d for now
), but I also think VR is cool - so It would be cool if that would help reduce my issues in that area.- - - Updated - - -
Apart from FOV - a friend of mine used to get migraine/nausea when gaming to long. He said that upgrading to a 144mhz screen seriously reduced his issues - it was the 'jitteryness' of the image that messed his brain up apparently.
(I must agree that its a big difference, just dont want to get used to his 144mhz screen - then I have to spend more money again
)Lol, thats a different kinda stream. Call it camming insteadAh.. The usual pre-release rush of posts. Where there are new posts every time you refresh the page. How I've missed it!
PS. Pimps, you can ~12 hours more if you need to, I can't play until Tuesday evening anyway

You are watching streamers, in bed? Or are you watching streamers in bed?
The one might be okay, the other one, creepy
I am not ok with that. They have promised update many times and haven't done that. Now is 1 year and 1 month without any updates. Also programmers don't play with deadlines. If it's deadline, work should be done.
Imagine if programmer programs a website. Customer does a campaign that website will be done at that and that date and discount for products will be x percent big. When the date comes, programmer says, that work isn't done and website will be done, when it will be done.. It is what Fun Pimps are doing! If it was told this time, that plan is monday, than it should be like that. And you need to do everything, that worldwide people receive what they have bought on monday!
Gamer communities are strict on deadlines. If you don't do promised things, you loose trust! If you can't do your work in time, say early, that deadline should be expanded, but not on a day, when is deadline!!!
And yes, i am programmer myself!

Ive always suffered from this, Dying Light was the worst game as that actually made me Puke... Just upgraded from a standard 60hz HD monitor to an Acer 27" QuadHD monitor & noticed the current FOV settings were making me feel a little sick in both 7 days & ARK so maxed out the FOV in settings & it stopped....
Ive only got the monitor set at 75hz which I know is above eye detection of 72hz.... But always suffered from it...

+1 vote for the return of an FOV slider. I have a migraine condition, and while I have the technical knowledge to fix it manually if I have to, it would be a pain in the butt. Plus, not everyone who has similar issues has that kind of knowledge, so the lack of ease in changing the setting would cause accessibility issues you didn't have before.
If taking out the slider is only for bug-testing purposes in the experimental stage, that can be dealt with, but for the stable release it would be a deal-breaker to me. And the growing group of friends and acquantances I've developed into a 7DTD gaming group would probably switch to something we can all play, detracting from future sales for you and your products. Please, remember one of the most important rules in business: take care of your clients, and they'll take care of you.

any clue on when exactly is it coming out for public?

Guys, there is a workaround for FOV so you'll be able to play it at whatever you want - there will be no slider in the near term.
No one knows when it'll be released exactly should be in the next 12-15 hours if nothing catastrophic happens.
