There are other reasons to want a release. Many people, myself included, have worked on other features. They want their work out there too and we also want feedback on those changes. Waiting on features often leads to a feedback loop of, while other devs waited, they did stuff, so you now need to wait for that to be done, so others do stuff and you wait. Where does it end??? I'd rather make dates and get new things out on some regular basis. If not done, then feature skips to next release.
It truly was edge of your seat stuff. The bugs, the raid, the splatter, the cleanup. High fives all around.
As I was saying.......
Nothing with bandits is confirmed. They need to reach a certain functionality and quality level before initial release and we are short on time for A21.
1 I have done AI, anim controller and weapon work for them, and have them spawning as wandering bandits, but there is a lot more work to be done.
2 General bugs.
3 Fixing bugs does not make for cool screenshots.
Yes, since we will want bandits doing some idle movements, but it will probably be confined to their volume or part of the volume. Zombies would just use it too.

I agree RasaNova it was one of the first EA games to show up. I also purchased abpout the same time, Starforge and The Dead Linger, both games failed EA never to be finished due to inept management and development.
Early Access title have been both good and bad. You, the consumer are really banking/betting on individuals that may or maynot "show-up" so to speak. They may or may not have the talent, responsibility or ambition to see the project through.
Originally posted by Johnman: Are you sure its been ONLY 9yrs for 7dtd? I bought my copy in 2013 and it was version 7 it was going for about a year before that I think... Isn't 10yrs more accurate now?Yes, Alpha 1-5 were pre-Steam but also in 2013. Nope, in 2013 it was still A5. No, it has not been 10 years, yet.
Originally posted by Kathla: too late for this advice, also it is a regular tool in the options of the developer mode.It is a 'regular' tool in the Debug mode; Not the user mode. The debug mode is not..hm.. 'Babyproofed'? That might be a bit of an insulting way to put it, but I do not mean any insult by it.
I thought I could manually change the day (not the date in game), so I could simulate a bloodmoon. I just should have let the time go by faster...

Intentionally posting to disrupt, evoke negative reactions, or spread misinformation. Provoking others into arguments for the sake of starting a flame war (including as a response to someone else breaking the rules).
