A14 Dev remarks

[QUOTE=Skipio;381043]Hey Madmole
I have a suggestion re experience for 13.7 (or 14)
I have been spending a lot of time "grinding" in alpha 13. By
which I mean, making 100 wood clubs in a night to boost my
weapon crafting skill etc. And it's not just me, this thread
has loads of people saying the same. I'm level 60(?) at day 42
and can make green weapons and yellow tools. That's not great,
it basically means anything I find is way better than anything I
can make. Maybe I should grind some more, but honestly...
where's the fun in that?
Here's my suggestion: Why don't you put in a cool down on
experience from each recipe and raise the experience granted
from it. That way we could raise experience simply through
using the skill and not have to do this game-y and dull
grinding?
And grinding isn't an option for all skills anyway. There are
some skills like (leather and metal) armor crafting which you
never get enough materials to grind (much) overnight and that
means at level 60 I'm still wearing faulty bits of armour plus
drops.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=madmole;381504]Leveling was too fast, so you were getting
good equipment too soon compared to how fast your skills go up.
I might make armor crafting perk based and level gated since
you'll never make enough armor to level it to a decent
level.[/QUOTE]

So he is saying that it will become even more grind-y?

No, less ez-mode where you up qualityjoe, loot all purple stuff
and then be crafting 600 quality within a week.
I look at it as making it more sustainable otherwise people
would be bored quickly and the game needs to stretch it out more
so people get more out of it.
If things don't feel like an accomplishment then it isn't
fun...for me anyways.

New player deaths! Its not done or polished but a proof of
concept. When players die zombies now eat their corpses for a
little while. The corpse becomes a backpack after the zombies
are done eating the corpse and then resume chasing other
players.

I don't suppose there is any way to make a light or medium
weapon mount turret, is there? Maybe a 240B with a 10-2 swivel
range. Maybe an M2 or Mk19. Maybe when we get to crewed
vehicles. An ultralight would be amazing. I guess I would be
happy if we had working NVGs, and an ACOG. I must say that this
game has evolved way beyond what I expected it to become from
the roots of A1. Keep up the good work h0tr0d. By the way, I
added a TS avatar for you.

you guys playing 13. We are working on one last patch, no map
resets will be required either.

This is why I waited. A14.

Ok here we are again ready for another kickass alpha. FYI we
aren't abandoning 13, we will release a patch for the last
remaining issues, but lets talk about 14 here. Any troll remarks
about 13 bugs in this thread will not be tolerated.
That said so far we have a new hide poncho, full kevlar and army
fatigues, unified sunsets, new death and spawning, animation
drive sound events (footsteps are perfectly in sync as well as
body thuds hitting the ground), hundreds of xml fixes from the
community (I'm working with Gazz on this), and a lot more to
come. Discuss! Our main goal for 14 however, is bug fixing and
optimizations.[/QUOTE]
How long have we had kevlar? pffft they do this every update and
use my mods ;)
