In H1Z1 , the developers introduce themselves in so-called Dev Spotlights. This time, an auto specialist was in charge.
In the last Dev Blog before Early Access, Dave Avram, one of the minds behind the car system of H1Z1, was in front of the camera and the questions mainly revolved around the motorized zombie extermination machines.
The video showcases impressive footage: For instance, when a survivor shoots from the bed of a pickup truck. Redneck style.
Also in the spotlight: An amusing bug. The vehicle takes off, but the character model remains suspended in mid-air, so to speak, a ghost driver.
Also interesting: The developer’s announcement that after Early Access, they will likely work on making the cars behave differently in bad weather. This could lead to aquaplaning in the rain or even a slippery situation on icy surfaces.
As if surviving wasn’t already difficult enough.
