John Smedley Talks The Future Of H1Z1


2015-01-16_00028

Daybreak’s John Smedley took to Reddit today to discuss the future of H1Z1, and while the title might have you concerned (given where this has lead in the past), it doesn’t include shutting the game down. The list of upcoming features includes the obvious, fixing bugs and improving AI while also adding in new content. Professions, set to make their way in later this month, will afford players more options to grow their characters.

Our goal remains to have a massive world. We’re doing that with Forgelight 2, which has been in development for quite a while now. We’ll be able to show stuff to you soon, but needless to say we’re super excited by what we’re seeing. It’s truly going to give us the 16,000 square kilometer world we’ve been waiting for. We want the world of H1Z1 to truly be a world. One where you can build your own cities and settlements, or take over one if you can hold it.

Developments also include adding new members to the staff, as well as continuing the fight against cheaters. Smedley claims a 100% detection against most major cheats, adding that auto-banning will speed up the process of ridding these players from the servers.
