7 Days To Die Dev Tracker

You might want to take a stab at reading the Pinned posts and news announcements for 1.0.
You might also want to get some education on the difference between a fully 3D Voxel game with structural integrity calculations and advanced zombie AI dealing with an ever-changing environment, and all of the other games you are using to set unreal expectations.

My understanding is that it depends on if the server has the "Persistent Profiles" setting enabled.

There is already a thread that details exactly what's changing in 1.0, that we know of. It's open to posting and it's pinned so people can see it. Please don't clutter the forum by creating... Read more

Either there are some sever difficulties in language, or some just aren't able to make a point when criticizing something, and have to resort to parroting some phrases to sound like they have a point.

Thats the problem most likely, the lack of funding. Only that "one time purchase" and thats it. Nothing more was added that could ...

Originally posted by Socipat: There was suppose to be an actual story to progress through.
My two cents, there is no story. The developers never knew where they were going with the game. Now they need an excuse to drop this game so they can work on their new game.

Even when there is a story, That's not going to be the be-all-end-all.

The story will be a goal to accomplish.. But not THE goal. It's still a sandbox game- Like Minecraft, the game won't 'end' when you complete the story, It just goes on.

At the end of the day, It's not a realistic survival game. It's a Survival Sandbox game. That means that You have some pretty hefty responsibility to define the rules of play that you engage with in order to have a good time- If you just sit in the sandbox and expect the sand to jump into the shape of a castle, or a dragon, or whatever, You're gonna have a bad time.

Death is meaningless- Unless you enforce a play rule of total loss or permadeath as Mithrandir says. Trader quests are repetetive IF you allow yourself to just run them over and over repetitiously; Some users simply never speak to a trader at all, others like myself limit them to one a day at most.

It's your sandbox. You wield a great deal of power to align the rules in a way that you have fun with. They won't just align themselves for you, it's not a linear story game where all the rules are spelled out and set up ahead of time and you just walk down the linear path to glory.

There's your problem right there. You should only have at most one of them installed on your smart fridge at a time.

Q: Is the current A21 version of the game as well as recollections of A20 and A19 a good representation of the 1.0 update?

A: No. Listing off features and characteristics of current and past versions that are outdated since the dev team has been working towards 1.0 this past year is inaccurate. The best time to judge whether 1.0 meets your own personal expectations is once you've been able to play the experimental build and see what progress has been made.

Q: Is the UI considered to be in final form?
A: No. Despite the 1.0 tag there are plans to overhaul the UI post launch. There has been no communication from TFP claiming that they believe the current UI is consdered finished. Therefore, the 1.0 tag isn't a statement that it is.

Q: Is the game being released as 1.0 their idea of a finished game?
A: No. They have not tried in any way to pass off the game as a finished product. They have clearly stated that it needs more work but that they are a... Read more

For existing PC owners it means literally nothing, You already own the game, You don't have to spend more, you don't have to rebuy it, there's no additional payment, and it's not pay to win.

Anyone who doesn't already own 7DTD after that date will have to buy it at the new price point.

You might look into modding the spectrum of different biomes. As I recall that’s how the game does post processing color correction, so the desert looks ‘hot’, the wasteland looks bleak, etc. The last time I looked into it, I was only able to choose a different spectrum rather than adjust the colors within a predefined spectrum.

Originally posted by Mithrandir: I may be wrong too, but I think he meant to drop building blocks like frames. They can turn into rubble. If I'm right, it's no waiting, just dropping and wasting some frames.

Oh yeah, if you can just toss them one at a time out of your inventory then that would be even faster than hoping a tower topples in. Try both of these OP and see which works well to fill the gaps.

Originally posted by James: I'm just gonna go on record and say that this is a terrible workaround. So what, people are supposed to hang around the 3 wide ditch for hours and hope zombies appear and then hope they drop a loot bag (with very little chance) and then wait even longer for the bag to turn and create rubble block. All of this just to be able to get to a trader? Edit: Maybe I'm just understanding this wrong?

I think it is more like you make towers of blocks at the edge and then remove the bottom block so that a bunch of blocks tumble and fall into the pit and turn into rubble. I don't think that loot bags even turn into rubble. I think they just despawn.

This isn't TFP's "official workaround". It's just s... Read more

I asked the QA guys about this and they said it has been necessary in order allow the trader compound to be near other POIs. They hope to create a better solution but in the meantime if you use the drop chance for blocks to turn to rubble you might be able to fill the hole that way.

I'd argue that those are two different things though. One is a skill system, one is a crafting progression system. One boosts your overall character capabilities as you do a variety of tasks, the other only unlocks crafting recipes.

On the topic... Hmm. I'd remove crafted vehicles. Ditch the crafted vehicles and Make it possible to select the ones on the road and swap parts between them to get a working roadster in a way similar to the old weapon crafting system; Stats vary from vehicle to vehicle, a sedan might carry more, a sportsy-car would be faster, etc.

I think vehicles would be a bit more interesting that way, and you could swap and tune up y... Read more
