(also i was just curious to be honest really) If you're talking about POI's like the Ostrich Hotel and the no-name hotel, those have loot rooms now, although not as impress as even bog standard houses. I'd imagine both POI's will be reimagined sometime in the future. If you mean the broken down buildings, no, those are staying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The player should definitely have total freedom to choose whereever and whenever he wants to get settled. It's a sandbox game. If you don't like to make your base in the middle of a city to have short ways...then just don't do it. Another thought on that: I could get along with "the players choices are limited/influenced by environment" (which is already the case considering biomes...wasteland harder than forest/green... no one would initially go there and make a base. So considering that, how about bandits would preferably have their outposts/encampments within towns/cities...so if you want to live in a city you would first have to get rid of them...and maybe then takeover/use their former base/structures. I could go with that...it even sounds somewhat "realistic"...although i hate to use that word in a game like 7D...

Decent melee and ranged bandits needs done yet and that itself is more than a handful. but how will the bandits melee work? is it more Basic where they just run at you and beat you with a stick? or is it more Complex (or at least whats the ideal melee combat you're team wants) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jost Amman Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 1 hour ago, Shado47 said: @madmole Hey, I wanted to bring up something that I have been thinking about for a long time and probably suggested once before. Seeing as people keep asking if more basic zombies will be added, its safe to say players want more variety in terms of zombies. Have you considered adding a clothing / hair color system for zombies? Basically all zombie models would be with only basic clothing and individual zombies spawn with different clothing items on, similar to how Minecraft zombies can spawn with different armor items on different slots. This way a horde of zombies of the same type would still look massively different from zombie to zombie. Add randomly tinted hair colors to that (95% natural colors) and hordes will really have all the variety anyone could ever ask for without the devs having to add more zombie types. This would also allow any zombie to become a "special infected" by giving them a gamestage dependent chance to wear special clothing like the Demolitioner zombie's bomb jacket. I mean, you'll most likely be implementing a system just like this for bandits anyway so they can have varying outfits made from different items... there isn't really a reason to not do it for zombies as well and once and for all get rid of the question of variety and making hordes look like actual hordes, not the result of a cloning accident. What you just described was called UMA, and it was a complete and utter failure due to performance reasons... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do find it a bit odd that settling in the middle of nowhere presents the same threat level to the player as settling in the middle of a city or a large town. 5 hours ago, unholyjoe said: no respect for privacy.

The old dog (a19) has correct colouring but weird shape (it's unclear if it's actually a doberman but the colour suggests so). It is also not that scary looking and its overall quality was lacking. The new one is perfect on the model part, with good sculpture and scary as hell, BUT the burned coat is weird to place in all biomes. I guess we can live with it. It's not a big deal. I mean if the "crawler" artist guy is on it, you can be sure that you will pee your pants at night with that puppy. Except he's not. A big improvement from the Fat lady model though, both in colour and Zbrushing. Excellent sculpture skills are finally noticeable. On 1/14/2021 at 7:36 PM, madmole said: That was never promised.
