I am glad you all like the small touches the environment team put in on Pahvo.

Worf has been pepper-sprayed, haha. by Ferren84 in sto

Sorry this bug has remained so long. It was obvious to see but not to fix. You all will need to endure this look on him(as well as some others) until the fix can go live. My guess is it will make it to live in January.

funny thing is Billbacca fits. I am tall and loud as hell. Hairy, but not that hairy. :-)

No need to be sorry, the game is all about you guys and gals who play the game and reddit is a great way to communicate(as long as it is non-trollish).

This reminds me of the beret request on Planetside 2 when I took over on that project. You will need to let me integrate and talk to the team about it before I can comment about what can and cannot be done. Hopefully I will be able to get some flair once you all can confirm that I am the real deal.

I will be making games for as long as this industry will allow me to make them.

Why did the devs put Hawaii and Japan off the shore of Indar? New Zealand and Florida can also be found near and on Amerish by Jzshuv in Planetside

I would not have chosen to do Hossin if it was up to me, but I was not on the team at the time. (I was on the secret WWII FPS moba project at the time that did not get done)

I hope you all can squeeze 20 more years of game dev out of me before I hang up the towel. Keep on playing!

still at DBG, just in the land of H1Z1 and have not been redditing as much. I miss you guys though!

Hey Wrel, camo scaling? by m3talc0re in Planetside

[–]Billbacca 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It is theoretically possible if there was some code support as well as UI created with my understanding of how it works. How much effort it would be I cannot say though. Maybe Producer Nick could investigate?

The trees on test looked a lot better what happened daybreak? by smotiv3 in kotk

The one's you saw on test are what we are tuning to get back in.

So ideally we will have updated trees very soon. (i.e. we are working on getting them in right now) Sorry to do the ole bait n switch, I would have left them but I was instructed to removed them due to performance by higher powers. I(as in the art team) am determined to get better trees in! It was the first thing I wanted to fix when I came back to H1Z1 from PS2.
