Two things that annoy me the most

[chodeofwar 145]

1. The random and glitched sounds RUIN the game.

 

2. The glitched/flickering weapon attachments in 3rd person.

 

I realise these two issues are superficial and don't really affect core gameplay but they make the game feel so cheap and glitchy.

 

Who else thinks this should be on the top of the devs 'to do' list?

[Judopunch 523]

How about this is the alpha. Your vision is short sighted and ill informed. 

 

The top of the 'to do' list would make your brain bleed out of your ears because it involves heavy networking/infer-structure for the servers. Rebuilding the graphics engine. Integrating the new physics engine. Rebuilding the audio engine (the one your complaining about cant be fixed until this). Fixing collision and model interaction. Creating AI and balancing it with networking between server, player, hive. Adding vehicle maintenance interaction and pieces. Adding the ability for players to keep gear on a server through restarts with 'tents' or something similar. Fixing the systems that allow servers to manage loot and zombie respawns without server restarts. 

 

your 'top of the to do list' is actually at the bottom of the list until the core game systems are running. After that polishing how sounds work and interact, graphical optimization, ect will come in due time. Probably more than 6 months from now, being generous. You said it yourself, your issues are superficial. Thanks for wasting our time.

 

Read the disclaimer you agree to every time you boot up the game.

I don't know about the top, but definitely up there.

 

I have those moments where I hear the zombies and thinks its the audio glitch... Then i get beat up...

 

I agree that there is partial ruining of gameplay because zombies indicate danger.  Whether it be Aggro on you or someone else. Its nice to know.

He didn't post that to have a know-it-all tear him a new one.

He simply wanted to see who else doesn't like it.  Chill out man...

1.  Sock Monkeys

 

2.  MOTHERFUCKING SOCK MONKEYS!

 

But to get back on track, there's many other things that should be at the top of the to do list, I don't belive these are two of them.  They'll get to them in time.

Everyone complains about every little thing they dont like every day on this forum. They are always telling the devs how to develop the game and what their priority are. The developers know how to build a game, the ignorant masses complain way to much. This is an ALPHA. Telling the developers what their priority should be without the faintest fucking clue how games are even built is presumptuous at best. The issues he is bringing up are closely related to networking among other things, and can not be 'fixed' until the other core pieces of the game are in place. The flickering is part of the graphics engine that they are in the middle of overhauling. The game will not be ready for AT LEAST ONE YEAR. Shit is going to be broken for a long time. And it could get much much worse than it is now before it gets to that point.

 

Hell he even the op says the issues are superficial!

Its almost like they are polish issues addressed in late stages of development instead of an alpha version where the focus is getting the main features and structures fleshed out.

I'd hardly call that tearing him a new one, society has made you soft.

Its so hard, when society is so fraking dumb and entitled. I remember when you could go to a forum like this and have good discussion, now its a bunch of whiny brats telling the developers how to do their job when the brats dont even have a clue how the dev's job works on even the most basic level. Such as what you said 'polish... late stages of development instead of an alpha", half the posters in GD dont get that!

 

The quality of this game, for what stage its in, is quite frankly amazing.

 

Im glad im not the only one around here not suffering from the dumb. Beans to you sir.

[ntmmonster 0]

i seriously think the game is missing a certain compitition feel, there is nothing to aim for, no benifit of hours and hours of running.

 

i want to be able to win!!!!

 

what is my score per minute?

 

what is my KD?

 

why cant we have level upgrades?

 

game times are too long

 

how do i unlock new weapons?

 

im sure you all agree, i just wanted to vent. hopefully over the future updates these things will be fixed.

 

fingers crossed

Visual bugs like this should be the very last imho

[DarkMario616 0]

How about hitting a wall with a tool and it makes a gun shot sound?

 

I swear I think I'm getting shot half the damn time...

You're not, but I fear we're in the minority.
