*snipped* 

I wrote you why. Yes it matter - Nobody  1.0 then annoucement spinoff everything would be fine.

 

Yeah cuz ASA did so well doing almost this.  This is a way to split your fanbase

At least the spin off it could bring more types of players. Maybe they don't like survival

Improved RWG road smoothing, blending and processing speed.

Changed RWG preview texture to full res at default and point filter.

 

New RWG biome generation algorithm (seed biomes around a circle and grow each in a square ring that searches out from the middle of each side but skips if not adjacent to same biome).

Playable, yes. But I wouldn't use the word "smoothly". 35fps, especially on a high refresh rate monitor, is an uncomfortable experience. 

Me as a mostly console peasant knows 30 fps very well but at least most games now are at about 60 or less

It's at Boston this year.  If any of you attend, I should be there to greet you... 😅

I played enough fallout 4 I should know my way around 

[Why do random and pre-gen worlds have so much duplication?]

I don't mind the copy paste pois. Unless one of the same is right next to each other. 

 

I like the system that they are doing with module pois with stuff like strip malls. 

 

Kinda wish we had some more post Apocalypse pois.

So the new console version is called 7 Days to Die: Apocalypse Edition

 

Not the most exciting news but it's something new all the same

 

Also both it and 7 Days Bloodmoons will have demos at Pax East at the end of March

Added to unofficial forum! I'm interested to see bloodmoons but not excited 

[Alpha 22 Fan Diary]

Updated console section, added new name for the console version

You could always just not wear the shoe "armor" part of the set and you would achieve the look you are seeking.

My main question about armor is how do the parts work

 

Is it 5 parts? 

4

3??? 

2?????

 

I hope it's 5 but from the concept art showed 

Hat, Gloves, outfit, boots

I have request to the devs : could you guys remove flip flops from it? Because... shoes for such "nature vibe" armor don't suit at all. 

 

 

Apocalypse were trash is everywhere... oops nail in My foot, glass, sharp metal. Hot sand in the desert

The electronic components in the trash are probably broken tablets. They only get the usable parts as items.

That's what I just think

In Alpha 22 are we stuck getting 35 fps on a rtx 4090 doing a city highrise quests because DEVs will not touch any optimisation away from CPU to GPU and it's GPU features because "It's alpha !" ?

 

 

 

 

I mean with the force optimization for consoles. I'm sure we will get some help

Glass Jars.

I'm 50/50 on those 

 

While I like it it wasn't done correctly.  It basically made water a second thought.  They should have made it stack too 1 rather then whatever number it was. 

 

But they should have also added more ways to get water maybe. The dew collector is the slowest but safer, while tiers like a water pump can lure zombies.

Man, I forgot about this, but the older non-POI quests like "Cable Guys Never Made It", even if they were kinda dumbly simple.

 

Right now the game has a very narrow set of missions types and we need more back in there.

 

(there's a couple mods for this at least)

That would be at least some neet little quest. Like darkness falls

You forgot "The China Virus"!  

I'll call it the florida virus 

[Alpha 21 Dev Diary]

2 hours ago, Riamus said:

I did mention that, but even if that was the intention, the virus name being wrong is really bad.  And considering it is most likely not intended to have all of those errors, it's just sloppy work.  It doesn't take much effort to proof something for the game before it's finished.  One error isn't that big of a deal.  A lot of errors, including something as important as the name of the virus, is entirely different.

Yeah, that's why I said I suppose it is intentional.  But I still have to wonder if it is actually intentional or not just due to the large number of errors.

They might update it. Those gun posters at trader Hugh the bottem said "Navezgane" Nevada..... now it's Amazon

The Duke reading the latest Navezgane Enquirer : 

 

Beerfly found another empty bottle of beer, desperate for another one. 30 empty bottles for a one full of beer, what ? Thanks god they removed the jars.

 

Matt is selling the newspaper that The Duke is reading, surrounded by skeletons that he found around some places that he refuses to disclose. Yet. All about money. 

 

DaVega is still missing.

 

Snowdog found another bigger bone. A miracle! 

 

Roland and faatal are still figuring out what Pi is. Who wants to know in apocalypse, anyway, we want A22. But Fibionacci was right, math is everything. 

 

A screamer entered another one`s poor soul base. Bless him. One less. 

Well known perv Snowdog is still on the losses. 

 

Madmole is missing

 

Laz has opened his new chicken restaurant
