Had this happen once so far since the latest build released. Is the world you're playing on generated on one of the older builds? I kinda figured that's why mine acted up

Not sure, I will ask my buddy who set it up. I think it was on this build…

Has anyone run into issues with all Clear portions of any quests not working? We are playing on a server and none of them ever complete, and we have thoroughly searched the POIs. Even the new restore power quests.

For information, I had terrible FPS looking at the cities, even from afar, or in a POI when looking outside a window.

Setting dynamic mesh to off fixed it. (At least regarding the cities part.)

ooh, I need to test this. My performance out of cities is mostly better, but in cities it is trash.

As of now Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, etc don't count. Sorry. Basically Twitch or YouTube is predominately what we are looking for. Some countries have alternative services and YouTube and Twitch are not allowed so in those cases we allow it since those are comparable services.

Fair enough!

no. the variations of the same type of zombie has been done before in like 30000 Alphas ago and it didn't really work/run well. i wish it was not the case.

I think it would be nice if the zombies just had a "Random walk style" so they would cycle through the types of movement zombies have (not the spider zombie though)

and when its done. thats when A20 will come out   

Different walk styles would be cool too.

 

Maybe the changes can be somewhat subtle too, they are bringing color shading to vehicles, could maybe be a similar method. 
 

anyways, I get why it is probably tricky.

Hey, this is kind of a random question - but I have been scrolling through posts and I don't see anything related. (I apologize if it has been answered, though).

Is there ever any plans to visually add variations to the same zombie type? Like, we have the business man zombie - but, what if there was a way to change the color of his hair/skin, change suit type (or just color), variations in skin damage? It gets kind of odd when you have a bunch of the exact same looking zombie in front of you (like immersion breaking type odd).

Of course, I don't know how to technically achieve this - but I think it would vastly improve the game if this was possible. Thanks in advance!

 

P.S. When is A20 coming out? Release the kracken...
