Game gets better every update. Alpha, Beta or Gold means nothing..... NPCs arent going to change the game too much... This is a survival game not an quest driven adventure game.... I love PZ....I cant wait for the cars to be tweaked and go live.

If your only going to play the game for the NPCs your going to get bored very fast once you have seen them and what they can go then your be gone again and find the game boring. People nowadays don't have any respect for games.

The main problem for me is that its way too easy to get a huge stock of food and seeds and supplys and then you don't even need to leave your home and then there's no challenge left only takes like 2 weeks of game time and you are set but NPCs would solve this problem say you have a group you need to feed each one of them maybe hostile ones would try to break in meaning that massive pile of guns and ammo are actually useful NPCs would add actual challenge to the game

I want to love this game, but I feel the same way that Ogre2008 does. I usually start a game, spend time getting fully stocked up, and then I feel like I have nothing to do. I am hoping NPCs will help add some dynamism to the game, but Yuna might be right: it might not help at all if I'm already feeling dissatisfied with the experience.

Don't get me wrong I would love NPCs just as the next person but I do feel people expect them to be the reason to play the game and expect a big thing. I don't think the NPCs will do much as lot of people want them too I heard from a dev that they only do something when a player is near them they are not making them a completely indeoendent NPC or something along these lines.

Thats not true. Not every game has it so you can join up with npc's and be in a bandit gang. Although there is an NPC mod its not refined so they will get cars in then some bugs and other things then work on survivors by 2020 we should have em and I'll wait because they havent abandoded the game.

What exactly will the animations look like?

To be fair, it's hard to blame someone for bashing this game. It's been in development for how many years now?

Which will always happen. Even if they make a sequel with thing like autogenerated and/or borderless maps, quests,additional multi-player modes, new settings, new extreme modding, tuirng test quality npc's, the game will still only get so much play.

I feel like the retro style of the game makes it art, and you got to give the artists some room. Think the toxicity of the internet mixed with the immaurity of the audience makes for a kind of "love it to death" scenario which must be rough on those involved. Glad the devs are patient and conciliatory, wish them the best since this game shas been so enriching for me. Evenif the whole project crashes and burns it will have been worth it for what I already got. On that note they offer both a decent demo and a low price.

So has many other games but no one has complained. Fallout 4 has been in development for 7 years and even when it was released everyone was patient. This is most likley an Indie game with not alot of people so calm down.

Next year ?, it is very soon.
