Even just a place holder vehicle would be fine. A bicycle, the most basic form of transportation. Anything to help get from point A to B quicker.

 

And how long is the .50 delay going to be. Anyone have a figure or ETA?

I've just started playing Standalone again and it's great to see all the new items and buildings which weren't there previously. After reading about this update I'm excited to see the development progressing!

They aim for wednesday, as wednesday is the stable branch maintenance day.

And they gave us endless sprinting, you actually are the bicylcle you are asking for.

Can't wait for server crashing fix and weapon firing sound fixes... No mentions of those in the post but i really, REALLY wish they will be fixed.

 

Would think getting the servers stay up for more than 30mins should be a pressing matter, the sound bug ain't that big of a deal although it is a bit annoying when people shoot 2 meters away from you and you can't hear any shots

hmmm I played 1st person exp for hours with no issues. found rooms so full of loot it looked like costco, but I asumed that was persistance testing. No server crashes though.

It all sounds great! Now lets hope that the update happens today. I just logged in and all the servers were "Experimental unstable" so I'm hoping that is a good sign that they are working to get .50 up and running today as stable.

 

The new inventory looks good as long as we can customize it (I believe that is what "modular" means in the developer notes?). I just want to find me a nice MP-133 and shoot the shit out of people!!!

I am not liking the new inventory concept. One of the big advantages of the vertical inventory is that the flow is intuitive from the top to the bottom. The head is at the top, then the torso and so on until you come to the boots towards the bottom. If anything, the backpack is out of place in that it is towards the bottom.

 

I understand the idea of utilizing the horizontal space that widescreens give us, but the mock up that was provided just looks so convoluted. Also, I would think that the horizontal inventory would not work as well for smaller resolutions.

I know its just a very very rough sketch and we should complain, or the devs would be less inclined to share WIP and their thoughts with us. Still I have been a gamer for a long time and there is nothing exciting visually or functionally that I see in that sketch.

Which is a huge contrast with this idea for the inventory, that I recently stumbled upon:

You sprint as fast as a vehicle would drive offroad - but you can cross dense forests and trenches. A vehicle wont get you anywhere faster.

I own an 87' Ford Bronco, living in Texas. I don't think anyone could beat it at a full sprint over a mile, even over rough terrain. However since you're so happy with the delusion you've set to mind, when vehicles come out, you can walk! How about that?
