Jost Amman 204 Posted June 1 6 minutes ago, Khalagar said: Aw yiss. Have you guys decided if the Junk Drone is going to be in A19? I'm super stoked for it so hopefully it pans out in time Even if they put it in don't expect to have it from the get go... it's probably something for which you'll need to invest all your points on the INT tree. Unless we can find it in loot and repair it or just buy it at a steep price from the trader... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Khalagar 220 Posted June 1 Well, yeah I figure it will be late game since it's tier 3, but still super excited! Make the first videos cover the junk sledge too since we know nothing about it! Who cares about shotguns and sharp sticks when you can have automated turrets?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I did all the animations back then. Brian and team are much more talented than I am, but it takes a while to get to everything. For A19 we've added some hand movement to the off hand on one handed weapon holds, so when you run with a torch your left arm will jog instead of being completely stiff. There still might be some stiff old anims though, but we did prototype a successful fix for that particular issue. Definitely would love to see that in game...a new designed crawling corpse would be amazing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ranzera 110 Posted June 1 6 hours ago, meganoth said: Because bandits like to plunder, kill and rape, they are not good at scavenging and they prefer raiding to scavenging by a long shot. Why search for that stuff in rubble for hours if you can just take it away from the scavenger? It actually would take hours and days of hard work to search a half-collapsed building, just look at news reels after an earthquake. Not the minutes it seems to take in the game. There never will be an ultra-realistic AND fun environment in 7D2D whatever you do, somewhere you have to apply doses of suspension of disbelief. I can easily find realism problems in your scenario as well as TFP's. And always there is an explanation that works if you don't scrutinize it too much. You think an armed group of people aren't going to go looting? Lol. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Survager 136 Posted June 1 Now there is a variant of refuge, which is based on the invulnerability of the territory of the merchant. To do this, you need to make a moat around the territory of the merchant, depth to the base of the world and a width of 3-5 blocks, and then build a base on the walls of the protected blocks of the territory of the merchant. In this case, the zombies will fall into the moat and can not inflict any damage to the base and character. In order to solve this problem, it would be possible to make an additional area around the protected territory of the trader, which could be destroyed, but to ban construction on this territory. Something like a partial merchant claim block. MM, what do you think about it? Or is it impossible? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Their movements and posture were like those of a zombie... not just twitching of a mockup actor. 4 hours ago, Damocles said: How about cutting the texture resolution of all zombies by half, and adding 4 times as many (including old models) zombies into the game. The enemy variety is really repetitive. And if you have the old artwork, why not use it. Its not that players observe zombies up close anyways. (my grammar is lacking) I think it's a bad idea to use the previous versions of zombies along with the new ones - they will look like they are from different worlds.... but the quintessence of your thought - i like it.

How about a moat that is 10 blocks deep and then your base attached above that beyond their reach? Also seems like you could just dig it along a single side of the merchant..maybe just barely around that side's corners. You are way over-producing your exploit.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tin 321 Posted June 1 The question: "Why do Trader, and Trader outposts, even need to be made invulnerable anymore?" They have the mechanics that can "Respawn" whole Prefabs, with Spawn, and Loot points included. Just wondering is all. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bandits aren't going to wait for people walk by in an apocalypse. You can't keep a crew of bandits fed that way. Y'all are silly. "Well gosh, no saps have walked by the last few days. I guess we'll just sit here and starve. *pout*" - TFP Forum posters, attempting to be bandits. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It would be kind of cool that if a trader got destroyed you could get a quest from another trader to re-establish the trader. It would re-spawn just like POI's do when you activate the quest marker. Maybe a double respawn deal where when you take the quest and travel to destroyed Trader POI and activate the quest marker it respawns as a destroyed trader compound with sleepers and a boss of some kind within the walls that you must battle and defeat. Then when you return to the trader that gave the quest it respawns the fully functioning trader again so the next time you go there it's back. 6 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
