Never said that, either. I guess we both gave our subjective impressions... that was my point. And that's certainly a wider base of data than yourself only, BUT it's still a very narrow data pool for having a reliable impression of what the real trend is. On top of that, I'd say that base building is boring, and most Streamers and YouTubers will probably avoid doing that during their shows. Edit: Riamus beat me to it, lol

Based on what? How big is your statistical data pool? My impression, based on me playing the game, is the opposite of yours then. How curious!

Why are you so worried about how and why other players will play? Relax, enjoy your own game, and let other people play as they like.

Most of those complaints can be resolved with mods, which TFP have fully supported from day 1. So, what's the prob?

I never understood people saying this... what would be "difficult" for you, then? Having your ass blasted as soon as you enter the area? I sincerely don't understand what difficulty is for some people.

Someone on Steam (FT) who can't access the official forums asked me to relay this post here. I think this would be interesting to know to @faatal for some A21.x patch (if it's not been solved already). Please, don't make me create a bug report, since it's not even my find. Tks

Hey, KOLAND! Are you a long-lost relative of ROLAND by any chance? Anyway, maybe you forgot, but zombies can swim!

Tell that to @Morloc!

Actually, cooking and strength make sense... @madmole explained it, the first time it was introduced. Whoever does fitness and training with weights will need to know exactly what type of diet and recipes to use to have better performance. If I recall correctly, that's the reason Master Chef was put in the STR tree.

Have a look over here and over here.

You misunderstood. I wasn't talking about the type of play style (and by the way, mine is more similar to yours than you think), I was talking about metagaming. But if metagaming is your poison, by any means, go for it!

That's a bit derogatory... Most streamers, however, also make mistakes for the sake of entertainment. Also, not everyone plays just for efficiency and effectiveness. It's a game, and games are supposed to be for having fun.

Yes, please! This would be a great addition!

I don't know about bats... but there were hornets in an old alpha. They were removed, though, and we now have vultures. As for horses, they already said multiple times that it's a hard pass.

Actually, knowing nothing was extremely frustrating. It was building that brought me to the game. Not killing zombies or looting. I do it anyway because it's part of the game but actually I enjoy working on bases the most and then being able to test them on horde night. I never said that "discovering the game by yourself" was about fighting zombies. You can still learn the ropes by yourself on building, if that's your cup of tea. But I understand now, if you like metagaming, it's your choice. My approach is the exact opposite... I don't want anyone to explain to me anything about a computer game if I can learn that by myself in-game. That's why it's hard for me to understand where you're coming from. I think he's talking about Tracer Rounds, maybe?

I think your interest in numbers won't help you enjoy the game, in my opinion. Why would any player want to know every single numeric and detail about the game before playing it, instead of having fun discovering everything by himself in the actual game while playing? I mean, you're free to ask any number of details if you so like, but my suggestion is to try it yourself when A21 is out, so that you can experience at least a bit of the thrill that you had when you first started playing 7D2D and you knew nothing.

Try that in real life with your car, and then come back and tell me how much you spent on repairs... Those are like tree chunks for all intents and purposes. You should get collision damage!

They never mentioned changing those values for the Dev Stream, so I don't expect they did. Unless... Note: when you drive in the desert, you can drive through smaller "obstacles" (like e.g. trash, small rocks, small plants and such...) without any consequence.

No, it means that if you don't normally ram into obstacles while you drive, you will have to repair your vehicles much, much less.

Typo! Thanks for pointing that out, lol

I wanted to say "gives" lol

Guys, FYI, I posted on Steam a short summary of the last Dev Stream. If you notice anything that is not accurate (or even simply wrong!), please feel free to correct me, and I will fix it, thanks.

Very good job done to the programmers there! It would have been cool if you also talked a bit about what optimizations you have done... like, stuff you can't "see" by showing it in the game.

I know, I wasn't saying that... I'm saying that you can't have beautiful pictures and videos to show how you optimized the game to get +3.5 FPS on the main thread...

@faatal : good luck for tonight's dev stream, I know it's hard from programmers to stand out!
