Wild Life.

So, while we are working on the next build, I thought it would be nice to share certain aspects of the upcoming update.

Wildlife.

Yep. here is the list.

1. goat/sheep

2. feral chicken - for KFC

3. wolf - predators that will track you and hunt you at night.

4. crow/ravens

As of yet, I am still coding wildlife behavior and group related behaviors so it might take us a while until we see something (few days perhaps? -but hey last time we had a deadline, we kept it by 2 weeks)
  

Nonetheless, it would be very nice to hear what you guys expect/want from wildlife. Here is a brief break down of the four animals.

1. goat/sheep - they move in groups, outside of the town areas away from zombies. They graze grass together and sleep in a tight group at night. The slightest noise can startle them.
They provide milk and meat.

2. feral chicken - they move in groups. 1 cockerel with many chicks and hens following it. Feral chicken can be vicious but not brutal. They provide egg and meat.

3. wolf - they are predators, like to take high ground. They are difficult to spot during the day but one should hear their howls at night. Have a steady fire to keep them from attacking you during your sleep.

4. crow/ravens - they gather around corpse and usually is a good sign of easy loot.

Let me know what you guys think
 

I like your idea of your wild life system. The wolfs at night gives it challenge to the game. zombies, and dangerous wild life.

With regards to wild life. Here is a WIP chicken. I am still working on the walk animation.

PIgs.
We need pigs.

Revive thread. The richest of settlements would have a few pigs and cows. The rest should have none, since cows are so domesticated that most would die without human care.

Iosif,

Here is something that you will...or I hope. Full documentation will be included with the release but let's just say that stuff has changed quite a bit since the last build. We are pretty confident in replacing zombies with dinosaurs...and the dino ecology should really provide some dynamic game play...

I've been cooking triceratops meat all night yesterday. It was awesome.

Bacon made out of dinosaurs.
Yeah and there's also dino BF4.
