A Reddit user described how they were having trouble climbing a ladder, something that hadn’t happened before this new version. Immediately, a multitude of users began offering advice, including the suggestion to install a mod to enhance this issue.

Conversely, they recommended releasing the button prior to reaching the ladder to guarantee a successful climb. This user also mentioned that it is parkour level 2.

Much of the 7 Days to Die community agreed with this user, saying that the new way of jumping and propelling in general is not as well achieved as it was in previous versions of the title.

This type of feedback will continue to reach the studio as players get used to the new mechanics. One of the issues for this particular user could be that the models changed in size, affecting their movements.

According to the studio, once July ends, all platforms will be playing version 1.0 of 7 Days to Die. Finally, the game will have early access to other types of content in the future.

Additionally, the studio anticipated that the servers and the game in general would be much more stable with this official release. Despite all this, players will continue to complain because the changes will become more noticeable as they play.
