OzHawkeye Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Another thing I wouldn't mind is instead of 4 borders of Rad zone, they make one an "Ocean" with a port city, docks and ships they can POI. Investigating huge cargo ships, navy frigates, hospital ships, dock warehouses, rows upon rows of shipping containers and maybe a submerged Sub to swim down to and work through would be a lot of fun. That would be fun. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pahbi Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Voxels without blocky graphics is what makes this game unique. Larger hordes would be nice, but if that is your primary desire, and you'd be willing to go without 7 Days to Die's amazing voxels, then I'd suggest these 2 upcoming games instead: 'The Black Masses' or 'World War Z' Its probably to late to shift no voxels, but I'm leaning towards the non voxel camp. Maybe its just me, but I'm really not seeing what huge advantage voxels bring to justify the performance hit. - P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my husband's favourite past time. I don't think he cares that there's nothing to find underground, but it would be cool if there was more ore (quantity and types).

In the A15 I spent several weeks to excavate a mountain top to build a fortress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sprite Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 I'd prefer optimization the most All the ideas sound great, but optimization is the most important I believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaxTunnerX Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Significant performance boost (optimization) Further gameplay customization (turn on/off horde nights, gamestage, zombie stun; make dogs walk etc.) The walking dead style zombies - slow, dumb, weak, but a ton of them Skills never gate locked, learn anything if you have skill points for it Bandits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dregonazure Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 if this game had an underground like minecraft then i could see the reason for voxels, as it stands though maybe they should bring in abunch more small minable surface rocks and just make it so you cant dig up the ground at all, perhaps have surface rocks respawn like in other survival games too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manos2864 Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 The below list is not only for Alpha 18: - NPC (Hostile and Friendly) with animations and moves - NPC Colonies - Backpack customization - Better player animations and model - Make the map more realistic (better roads, add more props, buildings align to the ground) - A modern UI (Hide the unlearned recipes or the recipes that needs a crafting station from the main recipe list, Split some things in different windows and not everything in one, bring back the right click option menu to make some actions on our items, make the inventory tab more modern) - Player Guilds and Trade action - Player Emotes - High resolution textures everywhere (maybe make some blocks embossed? For example, cobblestone block make the stones to be embossed) - More clothes - Weapon and Armor modifications with visual appear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roland Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Why is voxel worth it? Read this from a new player. Boy what a fun game. What I like about it the most is how simple and robust its core is: you can scrap almost everything that you find to its core resources and you can break anything (any block) you see on the map. I get such a hard-on when I'm looting an abandoned house and that fortified iron door can be simply circumvented by chopping down the wall next to it. I also find amazing how easily you can interact and mutate the environment around you: build stairs to climb buildings or climb out of holes; dig to your heart's content; readily replace the door to your newfound shelter. My previous survival game was Rust, and building and crafting are certainly more strict there than here. Some of you who are veteran players may have lost the thrill of playing with voxels but for new players they make for a unique and amazing experience.

I know most of the people I game with would abandon this game if voxels were removed. Myself included, voxel make this game top tier great imo.

Oh please not that guy who gets a hard-on from destroying blocks again. I was unfortunate enough to read it once, no need to remind me of it. Not judging tho, whatever floats his boat... Anyway, why would anyone complain about voxels in the first place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fragtzack Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Random horde nights. No more every 7 days. Every 7 days is too easy to deal with. Make the horde nights randomly -/+ 3 days from 7. The player won't know if horde night or not until the sun starts to set. Oh my, panic and screams of unfair will ensue! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtomicUs5000 Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 There's a whole side of enjoying this game that involves PreFab building that would be lost without voxels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zombo Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Hey, i love the voxel thing too, don't get me wrong... Just understand folks that it has a really high cost, and it's why we cant have zombies dying to 1 headshot from the start, and why greens have to be spammed around later on. How else is the game supposed to be hard if you can only have 10 zombies on screen before the FPS takes a big dump? So yeah, at this point- keep the voxels and go MORE into fallout like direction with super mutants to do battle with. Get more interesting with it, have really freaky mutated zombies with all sorts of cool powers. We'll call it the Z-MEN Starring MOLEVERINE.

RipClaw Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 How else is the game supposed to be hard if you can only have 10 zombies on screen before the FPS takes a big dump? A game must be fun and not necessarily difficult. You can make a game extremely hard but it doesn't necessarily make it fun. On the other hand you can make a game that is a lot of fun but not hard at all. You can add a certain challenge but it has to be balanced. Some games use methods to adjust the difficulty to the player so it's not too easy but not too hard. Players who always want everything to be extremely hard often don't understand that others also want to have their fun but maybe are not so good fighters.

zombo Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Yeah I do agree there should be weaker zombies and poi's here n there. Not everyplace should be a green spam. But most of it probably should be difficult later on, at least for those of us who play on insane. Just ya know, different kind of mutants instead of just recolors in the future hopefully. speaking of which... Someday I'll mutate in a glowing zombie myself! And then you forum people are REALLY in trouble, I'm crazy enough just as a regular cop zombie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CamouflageUK Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Not just 18 but into the future. A port area on the edge of a wide river/lake/sea/ocean with port industry, containers, cranes, docks, container ships, possible passenger liner/dock. Skin diving equipment for water exploration. Larger military base army/navy/airforce, random choice per map. Small/medium/large air terminal, random choice per map. Train terminals/stations, goods yards, maintenence yards, tracks.

Lexicroft Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 How about an airdrop directly at your base after survived the 7th day or stay within like quest when 7th day, kill 10 zombies minimum reward, 30 zombies medium reward, clear horde maximum reward and after clearing it, an npc will show up and give reward, feral count as 2 point, radiated count as 3 point Defend a POI quest, must defend 3 NPC from horde (30-ish zombie), NPC can follow you like hostage in Counter Strike Rescue NPC from inside POI to outside, Zombie have maximum spawn limit so no farming, you can give up the quest, NPC & zombies will be disappeared Zombie Boss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stasis78 Posted January 29, 2019 Author Share Posted January 29, 2019 To expand upon your ideas. I think having 7 day (or whatever the setting is) quests to simply live would add to the game. So. I spawn in. Do all my newb quests. I get a quest that is survive 7 day horde. Get a small or big bonus based on how many of the horde I directly killed \ did damage. Probably not an original idea and take no credit for it. Just an idea to keep the 7 day horde on players minds. Right now there is no reminder or mention in the game. At all. Ok FINE it’s in the name of the game. That doesn’t mean there should not be a newb reminder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Limdood Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Bandits Customizable RWG - several map settings More tiers of stuff...scrap tools, wood tools, top tier pistols, auto shotguns....just more stuff This game suffers from tedium at lower tiers and boredom at high tiers. More tiers of stuff gives us clearer and narrower progression...less wait between tiers means less time just "trying to get to the next level milestone" and allows even skipping tiers...more playstyles. Higher tiers suffer from the "only real option" syndrome, where there is only 1, go-to playstyle to survive...more options (like superior pistols, shotguns, workable VERY high damage rifles) at the top end would give more options for survival. Bandits are a WAY TOO LONG AWAITED feature to change the game from "how can we murder this one type of enemy most efficiently" to something resembling strategic play. RWG needs fine tuning, and needs player input....city size, city density, trader numbers, temperature tendency, sleeper density, etc. So that we can make diverse maps that we want to play....Want to play a true desert wasteland? city size and density at minimum, high temperature! Want to play an abandoned metropolis utopia? goldilocks temperature, very high city size and density, turn zombie count as high as it'll go. This feature alone would VASTLY increase the replay value of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
