St. Jimmy 1631 Posted December 2, 2013 Rocket posted on reddit. I don't know how to link it but I will summarize:Vague optimism.OK I can do it :) http://www.reddit.com/r/dayz/comments/1rvcm3/mr_rocket_where_we_at_old_chap/cds188p I'm still here :) We've been very busy. New hires each week, in fact a new designer just started today and we're borrowing a skilled audio person from A3 for a few days to help set things up for our new Audio hire(s) when they arrive. We also have another new programmer starting any day now.Our overall goal is still server performance, security, and stability. In the meantime content continues to roll in, so that's a good thing. All in all i'm feeling pretty good about our plans. But things are very busy, we've been working nights and weekends but mostly everyone took the weekend off (I spent most of it sleeping!). 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soapmak3r 677 Posted December 2, 2013 I am starting to think that the Rocket is far too attached to the 'fast zombies' idea...Slower zombies, in greater numbers, with more lethality might be preferable. I don't want to seem harsh, but I have kind of lost faith in them being able to make the fast moving zombies any good... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Was much better because of that already to my eyes. And zombies can be slowered if they implement fatigue ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TIC 1050 Posted December 3, 2013 Fast zombies would only be good as long as they don't zig-zag when you aim your weapon at them as if they know they're being aimed at. Personally, I'd like to see a combination of the two. Especially when it comes to seeing a random horde, some will run, some will walk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kingochaos 131 Posted December 3, 2013 there is absolutly nothing scary about slow ambling Z's... you could lead em all where you wanted duck back around and loot unimpeded. (like in breaking point for A3, kewl mod, but the Z's are just tooo easy) The movies/tv shows with em, rely on the survivors being retarded, to create the danger/suspense. I cant see a way o making slow Z's anything other than mind numbingly easy to manipulate. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't want to seem harsh, but I have kind of lost faith in them being able to make the fast moving zombies any good... I have become doubtful of their execution of "fast zombies", but I'd much rather have them than shamblers regardless of the quality. I have no patience for Romero zombies. To me, it's just a wholly outdated depiction. It's like having the traditional "Count Dracula" in Twilight (which I hate). That said, I'd support some shamblers, as variety would be great and it could be explained pseudo-scientifically. But sprinters all the way.

☣BioHaze☣ 7337 Posted December 3, 2013 Hicks sounds like he is having far too much fun. All you pre-alpha testers with your silly knees-bent running around behavior. I'm finding it difficult to post here without degenerating into a desperate rant. /in robotic voice *I look forward to enjoying this game when it's ready.* 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Private Evans 1303 Posted December 3, 2013 I am starting to think that the Rocket is far too attached to the 'fast zombies' idea...Slower zombies, in greater numbers, with more lethality might be preferable. I don't want to seem harsh, but I have kind of lost faith in them being able to make the fast moving zombies any good... To me it seemed, after watching the live stream, that they have slowed them down by using more the crippled run animations instead of full sprint anims. Probably the old sprint animation was just a placeholder ?A good mix of all kind of zombies would be perfect..You should never know what to expect. just my two cents Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Private Evans 1303 Posted December 3, 2013 Oh and honestly....since I never was a fan of the open alpha idea. I am more than happy about the delayed release....I still would prefer to see an extended closed alpha test and then a beta release including most of the new content... but that's just me 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Where's SmashT ?It's December already and no new Topic !goingtotehdogZthe funny thing is we go on what rocket says then the period he suggests it should be available comes and goes and people get aggitated. you cant be annoyed at people who go on what the head dev has said at some point. thing is it does need to be out before end of this year ! go on any forums people dont want to wait anymore the patience is stretched. you cant just keep making haystacks and prolonging it ! other companies are doing similar and this game needs to be released before someone does get the right game out that people want then its too late and people wont care what you added. we have played the mod when its been buggy, its been buggy since the start ! so releasing a buggy alpha isnt new to dayz core players just get it out ! we love dayz but just get it out now . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
