Hey MM,

Will animal farming be added to the vanilla game?

All i want from the apocalypse is to have more pigs than everyone else.

Also, with the new weapon attachments will there be any new guns brought into the game?

Cheers!

 
Carry char to every server

Would it be possible to have one character for every server that would be able to go from one server to another?

 
Whats the NEWS on gardens for A17..... are we finally going to see more seeds and vegetables?

Trees.... There are a verity of trees an admin can spawn, but no seeds for some of them. Fruit Trees?

Zombies..... Are we going to get NEW zombies to what is already there.. and Thus meaning not using an

existing zombie slapping a new skin on it and calling it new.

New Group spawns for zombies?????

 
4. I would like Car & Burglar Alarms for Vehicles & POI's to give more of a challenge to looting. This could also be linked with Lock Picking adding a new skill to deactivate alarms.

Omg how hasn't anyone thought of this before??

I think that car alarm idea would be a fantastic addition and viable too considering the new driveable sedans.

Absolutely 1000% yes to burglar alarms, but I do have to wonder, would they really be sensible? I mean, unless the POI was untouched. I say that because if the POI has boarded windows, and reinforced doors to boot, that means zombies have already been spotted and the residents acted to protect themselves.

In those houses having an alarm would be counter intuitive because the alarms would attract the undead and that's not good news for anyone.

Untouched POIs on the other hand that would work very well. Since the people could have been out at work when ♥♥♥♥ went down and no time to go home the alarm would be still set.

One way to remove the predictability would be to randomise the alarmed houses.

The lock picking feature would be useless here, unless they introduced another feature which would be amazing.

Double windows that can be lifted up as another means of entering houses. That way the alarms could work on doors, windows could be lock picked somehow, and it would offer an interesting alternative way in :p

Nice ideas there 'piggio ^^

Also on new fruit trees, farming, and animal husbandry, I second these questions - are we getting these things?

And whats the news on more food, are we getting more varied foods? :o

This most likely won't happen. It would cause too much imbalance between players (if it is a competitive server) and with the game itself (gamestage). Being able to join a server on its Day 1 with a character that is essentially on its 100th day of progression just would not work.

Spider modded it; it was quite interesting... a % chance to go off, then you'd hear the "alarm" (which at the time was the 'hit bedrock' noise), the heat map would increase, etc...

 
It will be fun being able to run my 2 brothers over on our private server...since I can't do it legally in real life this will have to suffice...

I don't think that is what he means. I thought that he meant that the same game was able to run on multiple servers and the load be balanced across them based on the players. I have thought about this as well except that the clients would take the load for a player that is off by themselves, or in a small group. Sort of similar to what "Dual Universe" are trying to do.

I could be wrong about what @deathless is saying.

And it is quite annoying to have a zombie spawn directly under your feet.

 
We're hooking that up now.

@madmole

Greetings you. About old sounds in biomes. Can you add to the game options the function of turning on and off the old sounds of biomes?

I mean whispers. Сrying baby in a burnt biome. After all, who will need it. They will be turned on or off. It will be to the liking of all.

In fallout 4, there are many corpses (skeletons) Do you want to add something like that?

Can we walk inside the bus and car?

I can just imagine Roland's response to this, if he took the same philosophy on wires that he took on HUD elements. Which would be...


I don't agree with this, by the way. I just like putting words in Roland's mouth. :rofl:

"You only need to see the government when you're dealing with governments. It doesn't matter what state the governments are in all the time; it only matters when you're changing that state. So I don't need to see the government taking up space cluttering things up. I can always stop what I'm doing and pull out the guillotine if I'm not sure.
If a government breaks, VFX and SFX give plenty of warning. And if they're not enough, and you don't notice that the government are gone, that just enhances the experience of being in a stressful situation. In fact, you don't need to see the government while the tool's equipped, either. If you want to know if there's a government there, you can test it any time by using the government tool on the power source to check. Then and only then do the government really need to be seen."

By the Queen's beard!

I think you've just invented a new sport :-)

You sure you didn’t time travel to the future and get this? It sounds a little too much like Roland. Haha

Now THATS ridiculous. Wires all over the place and scrap metal siding are the “bomb dot com”. If I could decorate by having piles of mechanical parts heaped up in corners I’d be even happier.
Gritty is good!

True I was just thinking about Terriara

What if it was your own server and you were just wiping it could there be a way?
