Rolling Changelog: Stable Branch: 0.32.114557

[hard2say 27]

Im gonna go ahead and ask a question that might be a little dumb:

If i rollback my version to stable, will i have to download update again to play experimental, or does it save both versions?

(i only have 100gb/month)

 

From what I've read, it seems that if you do go back to live/stable, there will be another DL.. but I think it was pretty small... 108MB or something if memory serves.

Any idea on when the official update will hit? I didn't see it in the OP..

 

Thx.

Hi :-)

I could play on 2 Servers (one german, one swedish), both hardcore.
I`ve met a few other survivors and the most of them are "friendly".

But two guys tried to axe me on the waterpumps but i was too smart, so i could easily spot them when they ran towards me with their fireaxe.
After we ran a few metres, i speak to the guy that i`m faster than him (because of fist up and he has a weapon in his hands) and i will kill him the next time i see him.

So he got lost and i could explore the new, really beautiful city in the north of chernorus.
I fell in love with the new city. :-)

Here a few impressions.

- Players can now be revived with the defibrillator

Hope that only applies to unconscious players. I mean, If I fill a player with lead, and revive him.. yeah..

I am excited to see this "video" he doth promised about all the upcomingsness. This game is like wine, it only gets better with time!

 

I'm an drunk so I have no problem drinking early!

[joe_mcentire 2073]

please share some experiences. i wanna know if it's worth hammering those servers later on before the official update.

yeah you pretty much starve to death, all locations have been looted to death and the complete darkness doesn't much help either ;). i found a hacksaw tho. but i think melee is pretty much broken with it. noticed very very slight rubber-banding from time to time. but maybe due to stress on servers. same goes for whole responsiveness of controls

You aren't supposed to be able to find your corpse every time lol, I'm glad they made it that short because I wont be able to retrieve all my gear in time thus extending my play time.

Reclaiming your own body to get your gear back is NOT very good for the game. In the mod it  made things too easy for experienced players. It confuses the beginners, and it's unfair to them. It's classic meta-gaming. For this reason 10 mins is OK. It's too bad for you (dead) buddy but it's a tough game.

 

BUT - finding someone's body by chance is always a good part of the game. It's interesting and useful and adds a lot to the atmosphere - was the body shot, enemies still around? Did he die of something else? Does he have useful gear (even 1 bandage..?). Finding a body is great.

 

Would it be too difficult to put a 10 minute bar on reclaiming your OWN body/gear, but leaving the body quite a while for anyone else to find? - or maybe you yourself just CANT get your own gear back at all from your own body - for you it's forbidden, you blew it, but it stays there for anyone else, for quite a while?

 

Im saying, when you're dead you CANT get your own stuff back, but anyone else can have it, friend foe or stranger. Does that make good sense for the gameplay?

[Red Pyr4mid 11]

persistent items are currently a work in progress, so they are being actively worked on. The task is not complicated so we expect that resolved soon. Note this would include tents, and backpacks.

 

So we'll be able to hide both backpacks and tents for storing items?

[WilliamSurvive 6]

Maybe a little help fpr anybody:

 

1. Branch: Experimental
2. ETA: In process
3. Version: 0.31.114500
4. Description: This build is being tested on experimental branch, and contains a number of fixes and changes that have been in preparation for the last two weeks. Please note that we do not expect that this build will be quickly posted to stable branch as we anticipate at least one more update will occur to Experimental prior to being pushed to stable.

Once we have confirmed this build is functioning correctly we will announce more information about the release to stable branch.
