As usual, a portion of these players remains dissatisfied, believing that previous versions were more balanced.

These players, who are not happy with what is happening with this new version, are quite vocal on social media and have no problem expressing their frustrations.

That’s why on the game’s official X account, a user responded, saying that the studio should focus on fixing the game because it worked better in a previous Alpha version than it does now. This is neither the first nor the last user to complain.

The Fun Pimps, the development team behind 7 Days to Die, have no other active projects and are completely focused on this title. In a post on X, several players took the opportunity to make various criticisms about its rather poor performance, anticipating the release of version 1.0.

One of the users who complained talked about the game’s poor performance as well as the poorly developed character editor.

The game’s official account did not hesitate to respond to this user, saying that his claim makes no sense because the version he says works better cannot possibly do so.

The user replied by providing the technical details of his computer. Then the studio stopped responding and simply ignored the user’s comments. Many users contradicted this statement, saying it is false and that version 1.0 works better.

The 7 Days to Die community is huge; the title has managed to sell more than 18 million copies since its release in 2013. Players now expect the studio to finally update the game’s graphical quality, as its visual aspect is quite outdated compared to today’s games.

Whether this will happen is unknown, but users are hopeful to see it happen in a couple of months, especially to take advantage of the current generation of consoles.

I'm a big fan of movies and videogames in general. I really love Pokémon and Godzilla. One of my favorite games is The Last of Us, Part II. A compelling and well-written story is always welcome.
