PC V2.0 Storms Brewing Dev Diary

Hello @faatal

Time for, yet again, more questions that I'm asking for a friend (of course I am). 😁

- Will 3rd person definitely be in a 2.X update (2.5, 2.6...) or do you have a feeling that it might end up in version 3.0?
I remember you mentioning that it was something like 50% done?
- Is the ladder climbing being redone (because of the 3rd person option)?

Keep up the good work and thank you.

3rd person should be in some 2.x release, but I doubt 2.5.
I don't think so. We/I want players being able to turn, aim, shoot and use stuff in all directions on ladders and not be stuck on them.

I think MM said once it's in containers it no longer produces a smell, but it would be nice if you put it in non-player-made containers it would still attract them. Or even make it so you need a fridge to safely store it. Wishful thinking, I know. Haha.

Smell comes from you, not items. It is a part of player stealth code. Items do not have stealth.

I hope that third-person perspective is optional, for me it would take away all the charm and immersion that the first-person camera gives you.

It will certainly be. You will not find me playing in 3rd person. 3rd person is quite a different feel from 1st, so taking it away would not be wise.

it's been a couple weeks...is it going to be a couple more before we see 2.5 in experimental? there have been a lot of things implied to be coming soon or before Christmas...what will be in 2.5?

We hope for next week and have a short list of features we want functional in it. Smell and some other features will not be in the first exp, but will roll out as we feel they are solid.
 
@faatal In the future, can you convince them to add some unreported easter eggs.
Not actual eggs, but either subtle or overt things, added that must be discovered
through gameplay. example: when timids in the brush was added.
 
From what has been announced, raw meat out in the open and eating results in a scent that spreads to quite a good distance. Faatal will have to give details on whatever hasn't been revealed yet. I will say that I really like the lingering scent from eating as it isn't immediately able to be solved like putting open meat into a container. It has created some pretty spicy moments already. Zombies don't exactly meander over to the source of what they smell.

I will say that the smell feature we have coming truly is brand new. It is nothing like the smell we used to have. This is not a case of bringing back a previous feature. What we had was a moldy sham sandwich feature compared to the Shepherd's Pie feature you guys are going to be getting soon.
 
Are vehicle and zombie weapons planned for 3.0 and 4.0? Will the AI be modified? The number of AI bugs is quite high, not to mention the drone's behavior, which now has a rather old system, if I may say so. Will we have updated models of the oldest zombies in the game? The two or three oldest models aren't too many, just a happy medium, and a fresh look would do our eyes and hearts so much good :p Are new POIs in the works?(Not the bandit poi) A zip line, haha. Will the pixel art bug be fixed? (buildings not updating at long distances) Please add moonlight that doesn't penetrate buildings, house and under the floor!(Beta tester dont see the actual mains bug?)love.(Thèse bug are not making us happy for long player)
