Purpose of 4.0

Unturned II U4 Discussion

What exactly is the main purpose of 4.0?
Last thing I heard was animation, making the game feel less Poly or whatever.

What’s so relevant of 4.0?
Got a link or something?

if i recall correctly it’s because 3.0’s code is such complete trash that the only way for nelson to optimize it would be to completely rewrite it, so instead he’s just making a whole new version because frankly it makes more sense

And all the Mods? Gotta be completely redone too? (Would blow if so)

it’s a new game on a new engine. it’s not just a remake of 3.0 at this point. it’s more of a sequel of sorts. and i don’t know why people don’t understand that yet.

Well the way you put it, I KIND OF understand it.
Is he making a literal new game or is he just rehashing the entire game from scratch.

It is a new game. I just stated that. It will be separate from 3.0 in the Steam Library. All mods and inventory items in 3.0 will remain untampered. 4.0 will get its own Workshop. It will be its own game.

And will Nelson abandon 3.0?

It will still be developed until curated teams are no longer willing to make or fix their stuff for that version.

your next line is:
‘What will happen to my inventory?’

Actually I already asked about what’d happen to Mod created for 3.0, it was explained nicely by someone who isn’t a smug jerk.
That my Inventory, purchased goods, and mods are untouched. (Until the game gets abandoned) xD

Actually, my next line is: Is there an Estimated date for completion.

Next year, don’t rush him though.

Then my most recent post about updates, stands in full. He’ll need to update out the bugs and all that for his map as things go along until 4.0 is created.

I believe since 3.0 was purposely made for Survival, but the community kept asking for PvP and a lot of things went that way. Since it is going to be completely difficult to rewrite the game and change everything to an actual PvE, it would be much better to make a different game that would focus more on the actual Survival rather than a shooter. That way, for those seeking a PvP survival, there’s 3.x, and those seeking an actual PvE survival, there’s 4.x

I still expect friday updates, but I understand Nelson’s developing 4.0 or whatever
But am I the only one who thinks Nelson spontaneously disappeared for life reasons, and all that?

16

I’m afraid he already did. We don’t know specifics, but we haven’t had an update for like 3 weeks.

17

I think it was 4, but I haven’t been keeping count.
No matter what he’s doing, there is always a why. Its a pretty good why as far as I know.

There is a major update for Greece being worked on if you haven’t checked his Twitter…

I found it :3

even without that tweet, a quick glimpse at the 4.0 github quickly proves that nelson is alive and well
