Interior Release

My plan was to release a handful of basic interiors sometime tomorrow, which I could still do. However, these interiors really are very simple (only one floor, very sparse design-wise etc) and there are still a fair few bugs I need to work out. Honestly I think you guys would be very disappointed if you saw these. Therefore, I've decided to delay things another week so that I can least get most of the bugs figured out, get the multiple floor system finalized and make them look a bit more interesting.

Here is my release plan:
1. Some interiors towards the end of next week. I'm aiming to have about 5 different building designs complete. This will be a GM only release.

2. Approximately 1 week later, I will release the barricading and personal outpost system for GMs.

3. Another 1-2 weeks later, I will release the full interior and barricading system for everyone. We should have about 35 building designs, each with a lot of random variations. And of course, all bugs should be completely ironed out by then, based on GM feedback.

  1. OMG I LOVE YOU ADMIN,
    Or at least the rough framework of what you hope to achieve.
    I find that this is like something that you are working to and that we as players can see on the horizon.
    Although waiting is great and all for suspense, nobody likes a Duke Nukem Forever :P

  4. This is wonderfl, I'm so excited. But for some reason my game isn't working. I did everthing as suggested and still nothing. It can't be my computer because Assasians Creed and LOTR works fine. I'll give it some time nd see oif it clears up.

  6. Admin please implement paysafecard payment system and you will have more people who will want to buy GM because is more easy. We will bought a code from market with cash and we will insert it in site. If you doing that people under 18 year old will be able to buy GM.

  9. I'll be honest, I just activated an account here to post this message. Thanks, Neil, for letting us know what you're up to. Communication with the players is a large part of what keeps a niche game like yours alive, and until recently that was lacking in a tangible way.

    The forums have largely made a joke out of your lack of desire in keeping us up-to-date, and I'm really hoping your recent burst of activity is an indicator of things to come. I'm much more inclined to spend my money on a game that I know is still in development rather than a game where the players make a joke out of the developers' work habits.

    On-topic, this is pretty much exactly what I've been waiting for. The masses are clamoring for multiple things to get done at the same time, and anyone with a shred of common sense understands that's not exactly doable with your manpower of one. Take your time, I say, and get the updates out functional (using, of course, GMs to iron out the bugs). Take your time, but keep us in the loop while you do so. Ignore the idiots that flame you for "missed deadlines." Just keep us up-to-date, that's all I ask, and your loyal players will, as they always have, remain loyal.

    As of yesterday my GM ran out. Tomorrow night I will renew it. Thanks for the update, Neil!

  10. Oh man. Another week for multiple floors is so worth it. Time to buy out the market for all barricading tools, lmfao.

    I'm so excited! I'll finally be able to live in the endzone! Who's going to help me take over the biggest building we can find? I wonder if they'll be a building or room in a building you'll need that necroaccess card to enter. Or one of those severed hands for a identification scan. Possible mission plots? Don't wanna get ahead of myself, but some of those random lootable items may finally get a use. XP

    Thanks again for keeping us in the loop, Admin!! i didn't expect barricades so soon. Awesome! =D

    Valve time. heheh

    @Cristin. Gm's will get first access. Once everything is smoothed out, non-gms will have their time. That is, after Gms have their lulz with bugs and other strangeness. XD

    @Lancestrike. Duke Nukem Forever. i lol'd.

  16. I like how most people don't read "Nice only for GM's!!" No it's a pre-release for Gm's. This is not just for GM's.

    People don't read anymore such a shame.

  22. Wow, who could have guessed.

    Oh wait, me.
    Real shame, Dead Frontier had a lot of potential. At this rate I wish it would have just stayed 2d.
    I'm done waiting on you: done hearing your excuses.

    As for the Jonny-come-lately's who are complaining about people complaining... well I hope you have fun finding out the hard way, like we did.

    This was to be expected. Large content is always released to GMs first, THEN us Free to players. You shouldn't see this as an excuse, AND he's telling us whats going on. Something he hasn't done for months.
    What to do you want man? You make it impossible for him to please you. "Admin isn't speaking, he's dead!!!1" Then admin tells us whats going on. "Its an excuse on why it hasn't been released yet!"
    This is how he released 3D, This is how he released Missions, This is how he's gonna release Interiors and Barricading.

    Grow up. This is the way it works. Can't handle it? Get out.

    1. Well... You'll be able to loot them, too, so, while I agree that the prices will rise within the first hours, they will probably drop very quickly.

    1. You might want to fix your spelling errors before trying to say that I'm not smart enough.
      Developing a game doesn't take a lot of intelligence. Also it's amusing how you call me jealous and not smart enough yet you don't know me in real life. If I'm not "smart enough" to make a game then why am I "smart enough" to study becoming a surgeon?
