Guest Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 @faatal in the list of companies that work with AMD FSR there is Unity, apparently in the engine and FSR will now appear. Will 7 Days To Die support FSR in the future? And yes - I understand that you will have to update the engine again. And by the way, what version of the engine will be A20?

sillls Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Zombies can crawl through 1-meter holes? Will players also be able to go through one meter openings like they used to? Football player and cheerleader are gone? Maybe just use them for the school like in the one in Navezgane? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFT2020 Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 @faatal@madmole This may have been discussed already but I may have missed it or forgot about it, but are Critical injuries getting some tweaks in Alpha 20? I recall with the introduction of our current system it was discussed that there was going to be some fine tuning on what conditions cause the critical injury to occur rather than the current system which seems to be random (the effect is applied randomly, not how you get the injury). I love the current system where I can either choose to ignore the injury (and suffer the consequences) or seek out medical treatment for them. Thanks.

The original one that was shown a few months back is the regular burnt zombie, the glowing one is a higher tier and the ignited one is highest. It sort of aligns with normal -> Feral -> irradiated. I've played with the normal ones and although they are the weakest of the three, they are super creepy and hard to see in the dark. I've experienced more jump scares from them than any other zombie because in dark interiors they are easy to miss skeletal creepy nightmares. These new guys will be tougher to kill but hard to miss seeing in the dark. Well are we getting a new irradiated zombie??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing/hearing is in xml, but I think most zombies are the same. I don't think it is an end goal. Torque is engine power. Increases acceleration and would determine top speed. We have plans, but may not be a20. Don't know. I have more " technical question" if it possible to add option about changing number of zombies? something like - i want to have 2x-3x zombies but rest of setting like dmg ,loot etc is this same - like nightmare level in nza 4 - zombie deal this same dmg but there is just more of them. IF it can be done can be change a number of special like : i want more fat zombies but no dogs? 15 minutes ago, Adam the Waster said: Well are we getting a new irradiated zombie??? hazmat should be lol XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TFP would have to look at every POI in the game to identify potential locations where players could skip the dungeon path. There would also be clipping issues with terrain and blocks. 2. AFAIK there is a limited amount of texture space they have to work with. They don't want a zombie type to be used for one specific POI. Not only would they have to disable spawns for that zombie literally everywhere else, but one restricted zombie = one less zombie that could be used in multiple points of interest, in BM and wilderness spawns, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because this is logical - some players and cheeerleader ecaped from school and get infected before changing clothes or just run away as zombie from this places. Well this big problem with 7dtd in nza you have maybe 100 variants of zombies? diffrents camos hats , faces wounds some of them are burning some of them are "bloody" .

A20 will be on Unity 2020.3.x. We will be doing one more update for A20, hence the x. The problem with new Unity graphics features is they tend to not support the built in render pipeline and we don't plan on switching to HDRP until our next game, since it will be a large amount of work. 11 hours ago, Khalagar said: Faatal is the strongest!

Can you give us some info on the new loot progression ? What's the vision for a20 loot progression ? I played a game a while back and really enjoyed it. Loot isn't done yet, but the full line up of primitive weapons was implemented so I got to start off with a pipe shotgun and proceed to double barrel and then a pump before I quit playing and it was great being able to specialize right away. I focused mainly on PVE and turned off hordes for the first time ever in a game, mainly because I wanted to try out the new build menu. The new build menu features every block shape in the game, so I was able to go crazy with creation and I had a lot of fun even though hordes were turned off. I did quests for money and the economy is harder than before so I was walking until day 21 or 28, I can't remember when I could finally spring for a motorcycle. Even though it was an early build I had a great time with it. RWG is amazing now, especially cities they are well put together with stop signs, cross walks, sewers, and a lot more. 1 hour ago, Matt115 said: Well football player and cheerleader should be everywhere like soldiers .

dcsobral Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 3 hours ago, bloodmoth13 said: carls corn, hunting shops... yeah maybe a bit limited, but lumberjack is kind of in the same boat there. It could be nice having some wilderness zombies that make sense in the wilderness, for instance its very jarring seeing a stripper, a nurse and a junkie when your in the middle of a forest, seeing some 'hunters' who died hunting coming after you would feel much more appropriate. Currently going into the snow biome is jarring seeing a million lumberjacks running around, a fur trapper breaking up the monotomy with some other generic zeds would be great. Put him in furs, bear trap on the leg, some light mauling here and there and its perfect. I agree with @SiNiCaL about reusing the burnt zombie assets for a frostbite zombie too. that would look amazing. I think "wilderness" is overrrated. Navezgane is about 4 miles from one side to the other. I've hiked trails where just to get to the trail takes more than 4 miles, so easily within walking distance for zombies straying from the urban areas.

No. Losing 2 zombie models will not hurt the game. I would rather have the 18 planned bandits than 13 more zombies. I must be weird, but I never had an issue seeing the same zombies over and over again. It never crossed my mind - Oh hey there is Arlene, again...I wish they would add more or change her out. It has always been oh threat, low level, take her out unless there is a higher level threat closer. Then again, my odometer is just 112 hours shy of turning over 3,000 hours for 7D2D so I might not be in MM's category of 5k players 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would work great for any place where animals live out in the wilderness, hunting shops or even shanty town. Would seem just out of place as the cowboy in any place other then where you suggest. Got to remember that there is cowboy themed POIs and even a whole "old west" town in navezgane he was likely designed for. 11 minutes ago, Junuxx said: There sure are a surprising amount of newspapers on the ground, and retro cars and appliances around in 2034.

Coming from a farm country Cali boy (aka me) the only thing really "out of place" about the "cowboy" is the poncho (I haven't seen them used since the 1980's out here aside from impromptu trash bag ones during rain storms), the rest of him is dead on. Though that might be different in AZ (where the game is based) and Texas (where TFP is head quartered), as in they may still use ponchos there. And yes, you do see "cowboys" in larger towns and smaller cities out here, especially where there are allot of farms and ranches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
