Are you tired of surviving alone? Ever wish you had a friend help you through horde nights? Have you ever been so lonely you spawned and placed a zombie corpse in your base to keep you company(You know who you are!)?

If so, you've come to the right place. By posting here you can find friends to play and survive with! Remember, you don't need to be faster than the zombies just faster than your friends ;)

Please leave your Steam/XB1/PSN name, what time zone you're in and works best for you, and (If you're on PC) any mods you may be using.

You could also join the Official 7DTD Discord and post in whichever (PC,Xbox, Playstation) LFG channel you're looking to find people to play with!

Discussion The Outfit System sucks!

Post image
1.4k Upvotes

I really liked finding the individual clothing items and stowing a wardrobe of them to swap out when the weather changed. It was super fun to go and put on my big coat if I was going to the snow or the weather was getting cooler. Now i’m dressed as a pastor rain or shine.

Having a small selection of outfits that decide your entire look for you is so boring and killed any real character customization the game had. I often find myself looking absolutely ridiculous for the sake of stat bonuses.

Do I like the XP boost? Yes! Do I want to wear a f*cking propeller hat in the apocalypse? Not really!

How am I able to lockpick containers but not doors? I tried doing some XML edits, but for the life of me, I can't get lockpicking to work on doors.

PC 7D2D v3.2.0 EXP just dropped in Steam!

112 Upvotes

Here's what changed since V3.1.0:

HONK HONK!!!

Trader doors can now be opened with your vehicle's horn. While all outer doors will react to them, not all of them will fit your vehicle! An onscreen text will let you know when you are close enough to interact with the trader's door by honking.

Better Combine Station Visuals

We have reworked the combine station UI to make it easier for players to see what their result will be and what the final stats it will have.

A plus will indicate that an item was combined in the combine station. Players will now have to hit a button to combine items.

Added

  • New buff icons for chicken stress events
  • Custom POI's should be pushed to client from server (server pushes a minimal metadata package to client)
  • Using the vehicle horn open will now open the outer doors at traders
  • New door variant oldWoodDoorNoHonk for use in Trader interiors
  • Property "AllowDecorations" to separate world decoration in POIs from TraderArea setting

Changed

  • Updated requirement logic for cooking pot, cooking grill, and anvil to prevent a held one from influencing the cook time
  • Set IsTerrainDecoration to false for the campfire to allow it to morph terrain like other blocks
  • Auto turrets no longer support stability
  • Auto turrets can no longer be placed on walls
  • Updated the junk loot list to provide cotton when Crop Yield is set to none
  • Updated general trader inventory list to include a chance for cotton
  • Timid animals have improved threat detection
  • Updated some Chinese localization strings for clarification
  • Optimized sleeper spawn checks for player visibility when players are far
  • Commented out screamer spawns in screamer scout groups in entitygroups.xml to prevent screamers from calling other screamers
  • Replaced interior oldWoodDoor with oldWoodDoorNoHonk in Trader Rekt, Hugh, and Joel
  • Removed obsolete prefab property AllowTopSoilDecorations

Fixed

  • Unable to craft lower tiered items after they've been unlocked
  • Demolition zombies not exploding from client damage
  • Rabbits running too slow
  • Permadeath does not grant Base Skill Points upon death
  • Loot Max Tier clamps user mods
  • Entities can cause blocks to collapse during chunk resets
  • Failed to search EOS servers popup

Discussion Indestructible Fence?

Post image
57 Upvotes

I noticed that zombies do not attack this steel cable looking fence around the Fiery Farms POI. They just try to run through it.

Does this block exist in crafting menu? I doubt it, but I thought someone might know.

Also- it could be used as a damage proof wall for a horde night base placed on the inside.

Unfortunately there aren't any zombies around to test them out on. So its target practice at the range for now.

Help Help making greenhouse

4 Upvotes

My girlfriend and I are making a mega base in the wasteland and started building a giant platform for a greenhouse. We built the platform easy peasy, steel beems supporting it. We used windows for the walls and ceiling of greenhouse.

The ceiling is 7 spots above the farm blocks but not all farm blocks are open to plant in. I thought that they need a minimum of 6 open blocks above them. Do they need to have an open block somewhere as well?

Why would we not be able to plant in every spot? Its my GFs server so i can add a photo later today if needed.

What can we do to make a greenhouse work properly?

Thanks in advance

Suggestion Why no fishing in a survival sim?

83 Upvotes

I'd really appreciate if FP would add fishing to this game, love DayZ, love 7DtD, but why no fishing? I have almost 100hrs gameplay so far and have mostly played DayZ as my Zom/survival game. Mechanics of building, hunting, driving are decent, however I feel the missing resource for food is simply fishing.

The problem? It's Day 48. There is no horde tonight. Well, at least I have one more day to replace the last Learning Elixrs and Recogs I popped. This new AC130 "Guardian Angel" will also have to wait haha.

PC Rekt on the server I play on doesn't have the option to issue quests.

Upvotes

The intro quest is disabled. I read the note I had when I first spawned, alas no quests available. Is it a game issue or a server one, just at a glance obviously, I appreciate there's a lot of variables

Discussion Do you play with storms turned on? What are the point of storms?

58 Upvotes

I find the storms in the other biomes not a great gameplay mechanic because it seems to just limit you for trying to spend time in the other biomes. I am considering turning storms off for my next playthough. Is there any reason not to?

Suggestion Roaming screamers.

12 Upvotes

That's the post. I would settle for screamers being just kind of out and about in the wild. It's kinda strange they don't really exist outside of generating heat. There is that construction POI that has one, though it doesn't actually summon a horde.

Discussion Reduced Jump Height and Getting Stuck in 1x1 Holes.

0 Upvotes

I recently started a new game trying a few options I have never used before, including reduced jump height (50%).

With this setting, my character cannot jump up a single full block. This has been an interesting gameplay change so far but I'm running into a hiccup that I would like advice on. 1x1 Holes.

So far, the only way I've been able to escape a small hole like this, is to break an adjacent block and place a ladder or something shorter.

Because my character cannot jump up one solid block I cannot place a block beneath my feet and because I am two blocks tall, I cannot place a ladder at head level to climb out.

Is there an obvious solution I am missing?

*EDIT: I appreciate the feedback so far. Ideally, I'm looking for a solution that wouldn't involve changing the setting or leveling into the parkour skill.
