The PvE elements of Unturned have been neglected for far too long and to the detriment of the game

For what it’s worth, I do agree the game has become more PvP-focused than originally intended, but I think that’s more to do with insufficient new PvE content and features after 4.0 first began

Nelson does know of the lean towards pvp and says he wants to change that. The main thing stopping him though is lack of time/hands (Though the hands part is kinda his fault). There’s only 1 guy working on this game. The only way we’d get this much change not spread throughout 10 years of updates would be if he decided to hire devs, open source it, or commission a LOT of people.

I fully agree with everything you said, but It’s unlikely it’ll happen soon.

The Turned are in the most dire need of behavioral upgrades. Full-map navigation, climbing obstacles, hordes, players should need to fear the Turned no matter their location. Allow them to break down (some) doors & smash widows.

Iirc, Zombies have terrible ai because of two reasons:

• Navigation zones are less laggy than free-roam
• The Ai is a free or bought ai from the unity asset store

If I may overdose on hopium for a moment, this game has a lot of unrealized potential. Having this game be able to transition from a first-person Project Zomboid into a robloxified EFT with user-configurable settings would be absolutely huge, but to get there would take a lot of time.

I’ve stated for a while that Unturned needs to abandon it’s pure survival branding. It needs to be rebranded as a sandbox game with a zombie-based singleplayer. The workshop is the biggest thing of this game, yet it’s not really shown anywhere on the steam page or in the trailers (Though, these should really get redone anyways)
