Npc survivors?
Saw a video where this girl spawned some bandits and npc survivors. I was wondering if they are actually implemented to the vanilla gameplay without the need for console. If people are confused about the video I am talking about, simply go to google and type in 7 days to die npc survivors. You'll find it

They are not officially implemented yet. Purely XML editing, console spawning and slight modding.

Unbelievable, I've been here since the beginning and through the years this has been one of the most requested things. I've been putting this off for almost 2 years now to give them time to add that. Looks like ill be waiting another 2

So you refuse to play a great game because there isn't buggy NPC's roaming around? lol

The point is after years of development the NPC's shouldnt be buggy, let alone completely non-existant.

Entire games (successful, highly-rated, fully 3d-modelled, animated and published ones) have been made and released in the time it takes for 7days to release an Alpha update.

Which is absolutely no excuse given the amount of funding they received via Kickstarter and continued sales on Steam.

I adore 7days. I love the game. I thoroughly enjoy it. But I have never seen any other game been developed as slow as this one.

They need to connect good mocap animations to NPCs, they didn't want to release half baked, clunky moving, bug ridden toons. They're probably also going to add some NPC AI system that needs coding from the only AI programmer in there.

For A16 they had to dedicate that programmer to rewriting random world generation (the new Socket System), that's why NPCs skipped A16.

Exactly. There is no excuse at all. If modders can make npcs, voiced and with mild Ai then why the hell can't the devs? There has been substantial improvement including in the zombies so where the hell are the npc survivors? Unfortunately talk doesn't do much. At least there are likeminded people out there who see that there are no excuses

I'm not finding any mod called Salvation for 7d2d. Do you mean Starvation?
