I know that, but I already have a drill and a gyrocopter, I have automatic shotguns and grenade launchers. I'm already tired of 5th tier quests. At the same time, my blood moon ends at 02:00 and there are no demolishers in it, haha, balance (I remind that I set the highest difficulty level)
I'm already starting to get bored
UPD
Btw, we have still not died during BM in whole life of this world
Do a crafting challenge then. Only things you can use or sell are items you crafted. Loot and trader purchases can only be used for parts and raw materials.

It's been an issue since Distant POI was introduced in a16.0.
It's also been really hard to get people having the issue to submit proper bug reports containing useful information to try to replicate it. I've only been able to get the issue to occur by either using obsolete hardware (and even then I had to over-stress it), or by using mods or other things that would invalidate most of the testing.
I can support this. My previos computer (>10 years old) had this issue all the time; my new computer haven’t had this issue at all.

Actually, you can setup a garage door to open by switches or cameras on both sides. You have to wire it like this: Power Source - Switch 1 - Switch 2 - Door.
I did it on my last playthrough (Power source - Trigger plate - Camera - Door).

I don't think it does. It may have been this way around alpha 15, but deaths just substract from total days. See the comment near the start of gamestages.xml:
Hmmm, I must be confusing this with another game then. Now I am curious what game has this mechanic I am thinking of. Ahh, the joy of getting older. 😆

Also every time you die, it affects your game stage level. The game stage is calculated based on the max number of days alive since your last death. If you had zero deaths, you would have a higher game stage at Day 25.

So, you could clarify this right away
How do you do it? Let me guess
Are you building some weird structures with zombies stuck in or something like that?
Are you jumping from pole to pole trying to play for time?
In any case, i bet it looks something like this. Thus, you "survive" not thanks to melee weapons, but in spite of them. It's like saying that a kettlebell tied to your leg helps you swim, because there are several people who have learned to swim with a kettlebell all their lives and they succeeded
Again, who is the one attacking whom? You started out fine but then instantly claimed that I am only "surviving" by building some weird structures.
Do I just stand there and let zombies pound on me while I poke them with my knife? No, I don't (and why would someone do that anyways?). What do I do? Let me give you a recent example of what I did. I had a wandering horde come across me (I believe it was about 8 zombies). Some were in the front, none of them were ferals so I quickly took stock of my surroundings. I was in an open area, outside. There was a large rock behind me. I engaged the zombies. First two in front, I power attack both of them once each. This caused them to stagger and get bleeding effects applied to them. I backed up, keeping myself aware if any other zombies are out there besides the wandering horde that is coming after me. I keep an eye on my stamina, only engaging enough to cause bleeding affects via power attack (if they are not already) or simple attacks to cause damage. The entire time I am backing up. If they are starting to get too close, I disengage. Put the rock between me and them, let my stamina recharge. And then go back into attack mode, power attacks and regular attacks. The horde numbers thin as I either take them out with my attacks or the DOT finishes them.
So how do I survive? By taking into account the weapon I am using, what I am facing, where I am at, and above all, maintaining situational awareness of everything around me.

I understand myself fine. And I think my original statement that you have an issue with is fine on its own, I don't need to add anything to it.

I hope everyone reminds themselves of the full context of that post before reading my follow-up question.
Because when they do and then see how you've behaved since then they'll think, "Gosh, that moderator has a lot of patience and even if he needs some guy to circle the back arrow for him, he's pretty okay in my book."
Thumbs up from me, you have a lot more patience that I would probably have 😁

Yes, and sometimes "Razzle Dazzle!"
No judgment from me; I caught myself saying "Poke Poke" at times when I am kiting a wandering horde with my knife 😉

The fact that some "playstyles" are only available only at low difficulty suggests that there is an imbalance in the game, so what's wrong with asking to balance them? You attack me like I'm suggesting that all melee weapons shoueld be removed
In addition, initially it was about making these abilities more interesting than 10/20/30/40/50% damage, I'm already tired of writing about this
I never attacked you, and I never stated that you suggested all melee weapons should be removed. What I been arguing against was your belief that: Melee weapons were useless at any difficulty higher than adventurer, that the perks for melee weapons are useless, and that melee weapons and bows are worthless after the first week of gameplay.
Remember when you posted "
Deep Cuts
Is someone really fighting with a bone knife instead of a club? or with a hunting knife instead of a grenade launcher?"
I replied "Yes, I do fight with a bone knife at the beginning until I can get my hands on a higher quality knife. Yes, I do perk into Deep Cuts. Combine with Flurry of blows and parkour, I can handle anything outside of a 64 Z bloodmoon horde"
And what exactly was your response? "I repeat, you can tell any stories from the Adventurer difficulty level, this will in no way change the fact that these perks are worthless"
Which I found interesting since I been playing Survivalist difficulty for some time now. Who exactly is attacking whom? The person who stated that they can play with other melee weapons than just the club and using those perks to their advantage, or the person that just assumes that the author is only playing at the lowest difficulty so their opinion doesn't count.
So please stop acting like you're a victim. I was never attacking you, just arguing against your broad comments that melee weapons and the perks for them are useless.

Do you ever say that when you are playing? Jab Jab Throw Smash? 😆

Thus, everything that you wrote does not apply to real players, it applies to people resting in a near-creative mode. Also, all this does not make these skills boring and weak, such as 10/20/30/40/50% damage from a Javelin. You still don't understand what I'm talking about
Real players are anyone that plays the game and has fun doing so. It doesn’t matter if they play at the easiest settings or turn all the settings up to the max. It doesn’t matter if they build a huge, complex base or take over a POI to defend themselves against the hordes. It doesn’t matter if they go in guns blazing all the time, or use melee weapons a majority of the time. It doesn’t matter if they spread their perks across multiple trees or specialize in one or two.
Real players are players that play the game; it is not defined by your playstyle.

It's obvious that you are trolling me. If you been paying any attention to my posts, I have clearly stated that I play survivalist which is the second highest difficulty level in the game. Throw in increasing the speed of daytime zombies above their default, maxing out zombies in BM hordes, and lowering loot levels, I am clearly not paying this game at lower difficulty levels.
But hey, believe whatever you want to believe to justify your opinion; just don't expect others to believe the same as you.

Pummel Pete
Skull Crusher
You can tell your stories as much as you like about how you can withstand BM with one baton on the easiest level of difficulty, but these perks are too boring and too weak to swing in a normal game. There are always more profitable perks, and the moment you can max out these perks you will not need to use these weapons
Archery
Same as Javelin Master, very boring and weak perk for super bad weapons
Deep Cuts
Is someone really fighting with a bone knife instead of a club? or with a hunting knife instead of a grenade launcher?
Light Armor
Same as heavy, yes bonuses are better but in absolute terms they are same
Parkour
What is it for? For those people who cannot jump over the cliffs in fifth level tasks?
Hidden Strike
From The Shadows
All stealth should be removed from the game for obvious reasons
In quests, you cannot use stealth due to trigger traps
In bloody moon, zombies always see you
Outside of quests and a blood moon, you hardly have any problems with zombies at all
Again, this is simply based on your playstyle.
For those that don't abuse the death exploit or use settings where loot is a rarity, these perks are very useful.
Yes, I do fight with a bone knife at the beginning until I can get my hands on a higher quality knife. Yes, I do perk into Deep Cuts. Combine with Flurry of blows and parkour, I can handle anything outside of a 64 Z bloodmoon horde
Late game I am still using either a compound bow or crossbow with steel arrows / bolts. With perks in both archery and Hidden strike, I can do a ton of damage to a sleeper every time I come across one. And yes, stealth still works in quests and POI for the majority of the time. (there will be cases where stealth won't work). The other times I trigger and then retreat to see if I can get the Z's to get bored trying to find me.
My last playthrough I ended at Day 123. I was still using the steel club.

Fast travel is really only necessary for games that only have walking / running to your next location as your only options (i.e. Fallout 3 / Fallout 4 - though 4 you can get smoke grenades and align yourself with the BoS to travel via flight between locations).
7D2D has vehicles that allow you to travel between locations. Since the game provides multiple modes of transport, fast travel is not necessary

Man, I understand that at the Scavenger difficulty level, you can successfully kill zombies with a torch, you don’t need to tell me that you are investing skill points in a spear playing at a high difficulty level and you don’t suffer from it. You only do this if you want perversions
Im also playing with a club / baseball bat / steel club (in the last game I found steel club at a merchant in the first week) early days. So what? Yes, I killed zombies with 2.5 power attacks to the head, spending all the stamina on Insane difficulty. It was very cool, but as soon as I got a double-barreled shotgun and after 1-2 days more a pumpshotgun I forgot about this club forever. And imagine, I didn’t spend 5-10 levels on leveling up possession of this passable weapon
You did not understand at all. I did not say that clubs are useless. I said that the club perk is useless. I said that perks for bows, spears and brass knuckles are even more useless. Perks for crafting armor are generally discarded skill points.
I think Meganoth stated it well. Just because you think a perk is useless doesn't mean it is useless overall.
I play Survivalist (2nd highest level) and I use melee until the end. Since I use melee, I spec' into the weapon I am using (clubs, sledges, knives) so that I can still use them at the end. Never once thought that putting points in those perks was a waste.
I do take guns with me, but I use those as a last option if I am getting overwhelmed. I want to save my ammo for BM night as I typically have a lot of turrets to restock and need to have a good supply on me since I play with max zombies (64).

When did more fun stop being its own reward?
I was just going to ask that myself. Reward doesn't always have to be "epic" loot. The joy of surviving a more difficult encounter is enough to satisfy going into a more difficult area

don't let your fans down! me an my gf uninstalled the game from our pc.. waiting for some new concept or update..but seems the steam train is at a long lasting station and not moving lol
This fan says differently. Keep it up TFP, really have enjoyed the ride that is 7D2D.
Most played game ever according to my Steam hours. From my perspective, you are doing something right 😉

I find it very sad that I can only play this game 1-2 times (maybe three, although I get bored before) each year (or even a year and a half depending on the Alpha) before getting bored just because updates take so long.What are you going to do when it is finished? Play twice and move on? Sounds like the issue is you, not how long since the last major update of a game in development.

Read the first part of the first sentence again. It's easy to get caught up in a POI you forget it's also a quest. There should be a more visible marker for idiots, and for people who don't want to watch a number whilst running away to regain stamina.
You do realize that every time you start a quest, a magical, invisible gnome comes to the location and cleans up the landscaping around the POI. You already have a visible marker in place to tell you where you should stay if you don't want to fail the quest. Inside the nice cleaned up area that the gnome took care of before you went inside, you are good. Step outside that area and be prepared to fail your quest.

It's coming together much faster than I thought. I'd welcome suggestions for things to include on some of the floors, keeping in mind the government theme.
Court room with supporting rooms (clerks, etc)
Licensing offices (inspectors, etc)
City utility offices, etc
Public meeting spaces
Voting clerk Offices, etc
Mayor's office with supporting staff
Not sure if you already thought of these

Hi all, I'm new to modding and I've been working on trying to make a mod that expands the turret system to involve new types. I don't want to do anything that may break the EULA when I'm working on the mod, however.
The licensing agreement in the EULA says I will agree not to: "Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, prepare derivative works based on or otherwise modify the Software, in whole or in part;"
I would breach the EULA if I were to use a program like Asset Studio to get the models and textures for the Auto Turrets and other firearms, right? Using the models to try to create a new turret model would also breach the EULA to my understanding. Would any XML I do count as modification of the software? (I wouldn't assume so since its the backbone of a lot of mods I've seen)
Am I right in what I understand? Do the models and icons count as part of the software? I really don't want to do something I'm not supposed to. I'm not too experienced in modeling, but would it be better to try to make my own or should I just keep the regular models? Thank you for any help and I'm sorry if the question seems stupid.
Roland might be best to answer your question as he has talked about this is the past. I flagged him so hopefully he sees this topic (if he hasn't already seen it).

Wow, where'd you get your "Information" is interesting, but wrong, at least with ammo in FO4.
No weight.
He didn’t say they had weight, he said that if they did have weight, the system couldn’t handle it sice it would treat each bullet (and bottle cap) as one unit and would affect performance

Can't play the game. Fedup of hunting for books.

Master Chef rank 1 unlocks a lot of basic recipes for cooking items. You don't have to max it out unless you want the higher tier food items or the special brews.
Living off the land unlocks the seeds. You can get by just 2 levels of it to unlock most seeds.
Good alternative if you don't want to track down the recipes or seeds in loot.
