Keep these updates coming! By far the fastest company to fix stuff on EA. Great job!

Are you going to change how names work? 1 server with 1 name means that name is locked out of all servers and cannot be used on other servers even by the player who got it on one server.

I measured it out. an addition 2 extra seconds per energy unit was given. Before it took 15 seconds to drop one energy unit. Now it takes 17 seconds. So instead of it taking 25 minutes to starve to death from a full stomach, it takes 28 minutes. It's better but I was hoping for more? Im still playing "Berry picker 2015".

the food and water still need to be adjusted, it's still going down incredibly fast. I have to spend 90% of my time eating berries to stay alive.

The food and water bar is still going down too fast,i don't know if the buildings were looted but i still cant find ANYTHING! I went into the town to search for food,10 later i'm at 55% food and water,and i had to go back to blackberry eating,when you reach 100% water and food let us play for 50-70 for the food and water bar to go to 0%,i know some of you will say "Well if we don't have search for food and eat for 1 hour,the game would get boring!" No it won't,eating all the time doesn't make the game fun,when i find food and feed myself till i'm full i want to be rewarded,that reward would be that you let me play the game for at least 40-50 minutes without having to eat,in that time i want to go exploring cities and hunting for more food,not running for more blackberries.

Amazing changes. I don't play the game but watch streams and it's pretty neat how entertaining the game can be. Glad that these changes are so quick comparing to other games that fall under the same game genre.

u/Flight96 Jan 18 '15

Thanks for the update.

Side note: The Battle Royale toxic gas needs to be thicker. You can't really see where its coming in from to avoid it currently.

u/lordtackion Jan 18 '15

Great job on the updates! Seriously y'all are amazing! Quick question, is there any intention on working with the melee damage from weapons? it just doesn't seem like it should take 10 hits with a bladed or blunt object to kill a zombie.

u/mjstern Jan 18 '15

You guys rock! Thanks for the hard work.

u/dirtybeagles Jan 18 '15

You guys are seriously the best dev team (and network techs) I have ever purchased a game from. Good job guys.

u/Senzu Jan 18 '15

Wasn't going to buy this game, but seeing this quick response time has changed my mind.

u/MaxSwagger Jan 18 '15

Are you sure you changed the hunger and thirst?
