7 Days To Die Dev Tracker

More than 8 is not technically officially supported, But there is an ingame option to host for as many as 16 players via ingame hosting.

If you have a super tanky top of the line Server PC, you could probably swing as many as 64 by disabling horde nights. Maybe. But I wouldn't recommend it, as it would likely have a lot of issues.

And to note, The maps are at most 10km squared, and even 16 can start feeling very crowded very quickly.

And also to note, every additional player is an additional number of zombies active at one time, but the server has a built in limit (that is adjustable) of 80 by default; So with a default horde night setting of 8 zombies per person, no more than 10 people would have zombies- This also is a problem just when a lot of people are wandering around, if one player has 20 zombies loaded around them, maybe some guy across the map has less than he should or even none. So definitely tune this value to your use case. (I'd suggest a... Read more

I have brought this up with the developers a number of times. There is no plan for one.

What is the difference between a Voxel game, and all the other games I play?[community.7daystodie.com]
Why do I get such low FPS on this when I can play _______ just fine at full settings?[community.7daystodie.com]

his response was horde mode. while it may not happen, it is at least on their radar to bring it back.

I believe the current plan is to bring it back. Probably won't see it until closer to Beta though.

Basically, they can't spawn too far away from you for technical reasons. So the best solution is to opt for a base with a smaller footprint, and/or locating the position where you'll spend the night in the middle, equidistant from your outer walls.

For every seed that weighs nothing, you also carry around things that weigh tons.

To be quite frank: Deal with it. It's a reasonable tradeoff to be able to carry hundreds of tons in a slot based system in return for occasionally some super light item you picked up slowing you down a bit.

Also, I would find falling to my death to be a MUCH bigger slowdown and massively tedious game mechanic as compared to spraining or breaking my leg. Vehicles exist and aren't terribly hard to get and they largely negate the movespeed penalties of those injuries. By contrast, A death costs me a significant margin of time, forces me to run back out to where I died, possibly fails the quest I was on, etc, etc, etc.

Inventory management is part of the intended challenge. It's part of the risk you take when filling up. There are a number of ways to alleviate this as well.

As for falling, it's a game. Go see what they do in Assassin's Creed.

Why post a duplicate thread? Post in the current one!

Come on! Get your act together!


Seriously though, we don't need yet another thread.

Some would lament that they play an apocalypse game to get away from real life unfun stuff like taxes. But the idea could be framed differently. If it’s more like protection money you pay the Duke every week, so that he doesn’t send a band of bandits out to break your legs, then that’s exactly the kind of strong-arm lawlessness I expect in a post-societal-collapse world.

In terms of the practical effects on the game though, we already have this in my view. You pay a ‘tax’ in resources and effort every week to maintain the horde defenses that keep your character alive. And that ‘tax’ goes up every week, as measured by your gamestage.

For the record, I’m not saying this out of some fanboy sentiment that the game’s current systems already satisfy everything. I’ve always thought about the Blood Moon this way. I know there are still exploits, but that’s how it should work: the level of safety you enjoy is proportional to the amount of effort you p... Read more

That would not affect anything other than POI sleeper spawns.

I believe the burning barrel has a reduced heatmap compared to previously, but I don't have any older installations to compare with atm.

Vehicles are and always have been that way though?

Originally posted by DerFinneAT: I agree on the lack of challenge (I don't like the term endgame, as I object endgame in survival-based games in general).

But in which current scenario would weapons on vehicle be overpowered?

Outside of POIs there are no threats (except for boars for some of us).
Inside of POIs vehicles alone don't help you anyways.

Leaves blood moons.
And here the super-vultures could still be modeled to be a threat, by...
