It was a nearby quest. Figured I could knock it out really quick. Ran out to the marker and there was a tree right where I wanted to start digging. I chopped the tree down and the chest fell on me and I failed the quest when it was destroyed. Anyone ever have a chest spawn on top of a tree before or am I just that unlucky? I wish I had recorded it.

Upgrading Blocks

My friends will build flagstone or rebar instead of wooden frames, but doesn't starting from wood give you more XP and use less resources in the long run?

Survival Mechanics.

Posted: 26 Nov 2019 04:46 PM PST

So I haven't played since A16. I heard that you can no longer starve to death or of thirst anymore. Is that true?

Also, I'd like canned food to have a use over fresh food. Currently, fresh food has all the advantages. If there was a spoilage system though, kind of like Don't Starve with the ability to make a coolbox or fridge and power it, that would be cool. It would make canned food valuable.

Still no zombies on day 3 of Alpha 18

Posted: 26 Nov 2019 09:30 PM PST

Hi guys,

I just started playing again after a few months of taking a break.

I know Alpha 18 was changed to have less zombies. But I'm now on day 3 playing near Diersville and I still haven't encountered any Z's. I've taken on a few quests. All I've encountered are deer.

You think my game may be "bugged"?

Best Combat Perk to Defend against Hoards?

Posted: 26 Nov 2019 10:03 AM PST

Hi all,

I've been playing with a friend lately. The game is really fun, we are on day 58. It's our first time doing a gun but we've still decided to go for a harder setting. So we have bloodmoon every 3 days with 64 enemies but all of them would walk. My friend maxed out on javalin master and I maxed out on the junk turrets. We build ourselves a slaughter chamber with tons of blade traps and water to slow them down. But I tend to use about 2~3k junk turret ammo per hoard night. And all I do between the days are just mining for more iron. It's very tedious and I feel this method of def is just not sustainable as the rads started spawning now. And my friend's perk is only good for looting not so much for def either.

I am just wondering for those of you who have tried other combat perks. Which ones are the best for hoards? I saw the brawler perk makes your a tank and won't get stunned as much but will you be tanky enough to go against a hoard of zombies face to face?

Ammo is even more expensive compared to junk turret ammo, so I guess deadeye is not really worth it?

Any pearls of wisdom are much appreciated! Love this community :)

Is this game ever going to look realistic? Should it?

Posted: 26 Nov 2019 05:12 PM PST

Just saw another retweet from Joel - new textures for the tools in alpha 19...

TL;DR: No, the devs should not seek to improve the graphics any more.

I know they've made gameplay changes over the years and added new and interesting things (personally I miss the bees, gave the game a more unique feel) but they've also spent a lot of time and resources updating the graphics, namely, textures and lighting. The goal seems to be to keep the graphics relatively up to date with other modern games to a degree.

My question and qualm is: should they even bother?

I never played the early alpha's (started A14 i think) but the rag-doll zombies looked so good, cathartic for each kill. Imagine that now: sledgehammer to the face sending a zombie cartwheeling into a wall or off a ledge? Sounds fun. But that's more of a gameplay thing.

I personally think they need to find an art style and stick with it - make it clean and nice to look at. There are countless games that still hold up today because of their unique art style and gameplay. 7DTD could easily be one of those games but not if they keep spending all their time upping the graphics ever 6 months. I'm not saying "make it cartoon-y or cell shaded" just find a style that looks decent and work on the core of the game. More zombies, more ways to play, more things to interact with in the world.

There's probably some points i'm missing here but my brain has stopped working. Thanks for reading a small rant, I haven't played the game much recently (700hrs has burned me out) but I can feel the pull to try the new alpha's anyway. Maybe when A19 drops.

Do generators consume gas on a server when no one is on?

Posted: 26 Nov 2019 12:56 PM PST

I'm about to finally wire up in my base, which of course includes a generator, but I'm curious if leaving the generator on when everyone is logged out is fine or will we come back to an empty generator and a dark base if we're gone for too long?

Unique weapons and tools

Posted: 26 Nov 2019 03:12 PM PST

Hi all.

Exploration and looting is an integral part of the game. You earn XP by checking storages, by killing the enemies present and you find the occasional yummy item. It's on this last bit that I'd like to suggest something. Having played Bethesda games like Skyrim and Fallout New Vegas, I know how delicious it is to find a unique weapon, that is, a version of a weapon with some aesthetical changes, an unique name and different - often better - stats.

Below I have come up with a list of such unique weapons, as well as tools, that could be found in the game. HOWEVER, you'll see that some of them aren't necessarily better than the stock one. Some have a trade-off; I did this inspired by Team Fortress 2 weapons. They make for interesting findings, but at a cost of not being absolutely better. I think they would bring intermitent rewards to exploring players, while letting every new find be usable in its own way.

Two disclaimers: 1) this is more a pitch. Stat-wise my suggestions are choppy at best; fine-tuning would have to be a priority. 2) some of them are humourous; I don't think this is incongruous with 7dtd, as there is humour in the game (cough SEXUAL TYRANNOSAURUS cough).

and hey, leave suggestions if you have other ideas in mind.

- Bone Shiv

Fang - 50% chance a strike will stun animals;

The Neanderthal - 5% chance a hit will instantly kill a player - user will grunt and shout while it's equipped;

Putrid Bone - 25% of poisoning upon hit - 1% chance of disease to user upon use;

- Small Stone

David's bullet - a headshot will kill a tough zombie (cop, biker, tourist) - will break on hit;

Constant Crashing

Posted: 26 Nov 2019 11:06 AM PST

So me and my friends are playing a game that I'm hosting, and it crashes frequently. Nothing in particular seems to cause the crash, and I'm not worried about my computer being the problem (Ryzen 3900X, RTX 2080ti, 16GB RAM 3600 MHz, etc). I have not overclocked my CPU or GPU so stability isn't something I'm worried about either. Temps are under control, and this is the only game I play that is crashing. I am planning on updating the BIOS of my mobo and see if that solves anything, but all other drivers are up to date.
