bE is taking applications for a Design Director, we need the new director to be pvp focused, anyone have any recommendations?

Design Director - 7 Days to Die - Behaviour Interactive

sounds like to me @faatal needs a serious promotion.

Some people's titles were changed. I am now a Programming Technical Director.

It's time to show the patch notes

Sooner than later. I am curious to see all the stuff that landed in 3.0 as we also have many changes for 3.x and 4.0 in the works, so it starts getting hazy what little bits are landing where.

So @faatal maybe the new pig model finally makes an appearance? Sorry, couldn't resist!

Very happy to read some of your posts, thanks.

how do I say this w/o causing an uproar? I appreciate we just got some crumbs of information...but...when are we going to get something more concrete? it's been 6 months or more of "we will tell you more about our plans...in due time".

Given how "concrete" dates/info have been in the past, I much prefer the approach of info not going out until the team is sure it's about ready.

Agreed. TFP don't know, so whatever window they put out there will probably miss the mark, and people will complain anyway. I'd rather not know than "totally June!" and it releases like 3 months later. lol

You're not letting this go, are you?

Let’s put it this way. It is as likely that there is a PVP design director as it is likely that a broom closet is used as an office. So put me down as admitting to both of those things…lol.

Wow... Who would have thought our company even had a PvP design director...

I’m not sure if it’s about dates or promises it’s just that right now we have no real idea what we’re actually going to see in 3.0. I have my own little “conspiracy theories” about what might be in the update, but at the end of the day, they’re just guesses. I can wait for 3.0, that’s not a problem.

But I also consider 2.5 as major update, so I start wondering whether 3.0 will also be another big milestone like previous major updates, with things like a dev stream or a streamer weekend. We haven’t really even gotten confirmation on that kind of basic stuff.

What’s confusing is that Lathan from the Fubar Prime channel on Twitch told me, when I asked him during a live stream, that there will be a streamer weekend, so I don’t understand if this is supposed to be some kind of secret now, or why even that kind of information can’t be shared.Also, if there is going to be a streamer weekend, does that automatically mean there will also be a dev stream?

I just want to know what I’m actually waiting for even a small hint about what might be coming in the update. Nothing major, just a bit of direction so it doesn’t feel like pure guessing.

Finally, I’m not even sure if the chicken coop is supposed to be in 3.0. As far as I know, nothing has been officially confirmed, which is why I’m a bit confused, even though Joel mentioned on Reddit that it would be in 3.0. Everything feels a bit mixed up I don’t really care about dates, I just want some information but maybe I should just be more patient about it.

I'd prefer to get insight on what they're doing and think they might get some early feedback from the community, but given that many folks turn that into unreasonable expectations, or jump to bizarre conclusions, I can see why they don't.

I am not asking for dates...I agree that the OLD COMPANY was terrible at hitting self imposed dates.



***Captain Obvious Moment*** they are very behind on delivering what we paid for. (some of us twice and at a much higher price)

I am asking them to give us what THEY SAID THEY WOULD. Like what changes are coming. This acquisition is supposed to see us get more updates faster...be nice to hear approximately when that is going to kick in. Be nice to know how this is going to be monetized. Be nice to know if they plan on pursuing the "live service" model...and what that might mean for the game. If they ever plan on removing the older versions.

There are legitimate questions...and they did say that they would tell us at least something...definitely not as much as we might like to know, but, they did say they would make a ■■■■ing effort. I'm just asking WHERE IS IT?
