      See I disagree. Or more accurately, GNS let me in on something I hadn't heard to this point that makes the magazine system sound worse, not better. The whole "just put points into what you need and you'll be more likely to get the related magazines" comes across to me as "you have to spread your points way out or you'll never have workstations". It sounds like this system would hurt you if you wanted to be highly specialized, not help.

    My absolute favorite points of A21 is the new learning system and the infested clear quest. Dont have to rely so heavily on RNG to get upgraded weapons armor and tools. Infested Quests gives you more zombies to kill (main point of the game yeah?) and gives you a special additional ammo box at the end of it and allows you to get Level 5 quest rewards exploring a Level 4 building. Love it.

    The thing about Learn by Reading is that I haven't been able to find any information on how this is balanced in relation to the game stage and how much looting is required to keep up with the game stage.
    I love building large bases and often take a break from looting for several weeks while I build. During this time, my level and of course the gamestage increases, but the crafting skills remain at the same level. So the concern is that eventually my gear will not keep up with the gamestage. Also I usually pushed into advanced engineering with the skill points I recieved from upgrading blocks and unlocked the traps to finish my bases.

      In my current playthrough, on day 4, I already have iron tools and miner 69er to level 4. And I've only just finished the tier 1 quests.
      In my opinion, the progression is VERY fast - perhaps too fast for some people who do a LOT of looting. But a casual raider should not have any trouble advancing quickly.
      Alternatively, with the new traderstage system. You should find iron tools at the trader starting at traderstage 21 (more on that soon) and steel tools at traderstage 35.

    My only concern for Learn by Reading is how multiplayer would work with it.
    Typically someone (or 2 people) in my 4 person group would go out looting, while the rest of us are gathering resources, building, whatever. We still go on looting trips, just the other person(people) do it more.
    They would have to bring back the recipes for the scientists/electricians/whatever, which, unless i'm wrong abt this, would take up a lot of their usually already limited space

It would be nice to see some improvements to the questing - it's hard with some POIs to figure out what you're supposed to do, the fallen over tower in particular is frustrating because you end up going all over the place trying to figure out where the last zed is. Even a perk in the perception tree that gives you the ability to sense sleeping zed's would be good.

    I think that the learn by read system is really great. In the past, the only reason you would craft a higher level item in a tech 1 tier is if you didn't have the resources to craft anything better. But now the upgraded tools are available more gradually. You end up using more of your resources crafting things multiple times until you can make something really good, but I think that that balances the game more. It also reduces the chance you'll be disappointed by constantly finding recipes that you've already read in loot when you are trying to find a recipe that you need.

    This update is really amazing it makes the game feel new, but there are some things that I've been wanting for a long time:
    - The main thing I want is some actual optimization. Because when playing with a friend and as we explore the skyscraper we both get like 40 fps and it can dip to as low as 25fps (we both have 3090's, I've got an i5 13600k (they have a 5800x) and we both have 16gb's of ram) the performance is great outside the city but in the city it's not a very enjoyable experience.
    - Animation overhaul. The animations on the zombies are great but they are very repetitive, I would love to see some unique random changing patterns on the zombies just to make the game seem more realistic and make it harder to counter the zombies. The player animations and models really do need some work as they have very unnatural movements and don't look like they have been updated for a LONG time, but you'll only notice that if you're playing with someone.
    - Maybe add some other humans other than the traders, I heard about some potential raiders that might've been in development for this alpha 21 update but obviously nothing came of that rumor but seeing some other humans maybe even other settlers would make the game more interesting (maybe even add some lore to the game like who is flying the plane that sends the airdrops and where its coming from)
    - Also some updated gun models and better animations for them for more realistic ones would be sick but that's just my preference
    Other than that this update is great and I like seeing the pimps team still working on this game.

    On the performance, FPS under relatively mundane circumstances is of less interest than that big stutter that comes when you're in a POI and a wandering horde or screamer horde generates nearby while you're fighting some soldiers. How's that "lots of entities loading in all at once" lag spike in 21?

    • @Splappa09Gaming
      @Splappa09Gaming 11 місяців тому

      I was kind of wondering the same thing. The lag spike when a screamer spawns in while you're mining or the lag spike when you walk into a trigger room in a large POI.

    I gotta say the one thing I am dreading is the water nerf, especially for groups of friends. a 3x3 is a huge dampener, especially considering I usually use my rooftops for farming massive amounts of food for my group. The water nerf isn't *huge* but not being able to go out and fill jars or having a ton of snow and jars on hand for emergency water feels just kinda wrong, especially for a survival game, I always loved that immersion aspect

      it been year for me since alpha 20. I dont like it too. I find that the game becoming more toward RPG with some weird survival zombie slap to it but since I havent play the game yet so I dont know how hard it is to find water. I even got friends that own the game and they perfer realism survival like old day of 7 Days but it become more of a chore to play. Tho my feeling toward game is mixed since they promise NPC so I hoping for ruling colony of sort. This change of how to get water is meh for me but I dont have a will to play anymore until some complex system of sort to add some favour to the game beside new shiny item

    I've still got some mixed feelings about the "learn by reading" system personally. In the maps I play with friends, I am the main looter and I'm good at it. In your video you had multiple important things unlocked by only day 7. I am concerned that this will make progression a bit too fast for players like me.
    Undead Legacy struck a pitch-perfect balance with its progression systems, and after having played on that, it seems like Alpha 21 will be a return to the breakneck pace of progression of before. The kind of progression that causes many players, including myself, to get very bored after like day 35 or 49.

    Gotta disagree with the water thing, the water filter cost 2200 dukes for us, not 1500. It makes barely any water unless you're constantly dying to save up more and it's honestly just really frustrating having a base right next to a river but the character being too stupid to boil the water from there, instead relegating himself to drinking exclusively boiled toilet water for no reason.
    I can understand making the jars rarer, something you can't craft and you don't get it back from drinking murky water (broken seal) or mineral water (plastic bottle) but not at all is terribly unrealistic and unfun.
    On a slightly unrelated note, kinda lame that the dew collector doesn't accelerate when it's raining. If it produced more water conditionally it might be less frustrating to go through all those dukes (more than I got cracking an atm at the outdoor cinema) for almost no water.

    They chose showcase week to come out with this. Not the best timing.
    I think you're misrepresenting the water controversy a bit. The problem seems to be more of a consistency problem than a water scarcity one. People don't understand how water can be gathered by hand but not by container from a water source. Just makes no sense. I think many of us who look at things strategically understood this change wasn't going to affect how much water we can get by much at all, but just ends up automating everything. So it just defeats the purpose that TFP claimed was the intent behind it. Definitely flies in the face of their reasoning for not having farm animals but insisting we risk hunting out in the wild. There is just no consistency in what they're doing with survival, and it makes no sense logically.
    And not a free update. Don't attribute free to something that was paid for already. This is early access, not some post launch content. It better NOT cost more to get the complete game.

      "It should be called learn by Rng." or at least "Learn by looting."
      I don't think I'll mind it in a solo game, but if one person is exploring/looting (and getting a bunch of magazines for their specialization) while someone else is base-building/farming... that second person is getting crapped on because the looter won't find many base-building/farming magazines without skill points allocated to that.
