7 Days to Die Server (alpha 16)

We will be starting the alpha 16 game on Saturday 22nd July at around 8pm BST (7pm UTC, 9pm CET, 3pm EDT, 12pm PDT). We'll announce the actual start time on Discord. 

The server address is 108.61.116.84 Port 25070

The server password will be announced when the game begins.

Special rules for the Alpha 16 game are as follows:

- Players will be capped to level 70 at maximum. This should encourage players to specialise in their abilities and make skilled crafters, hunters and fighters more in demand.

- Days will be 90 minutes in length

- At the start of the new world we will meet in a central location then split into 4 groups. Those groups will then start 4 settlements in new locations. The central area will provide a location for newcomers to get started, the 4 settlements will offer larger builds for long term play. The goal is that the central area will be turned into an arena for various competitive activities between the 4 settlements.Teams for the settlements will be decided within the game. New players can pick from any of the teams except the one with the most players. So if one teams have 5, 4, 4, 3 players on them a new player can join the teams with 4 or 3 on them. This will hopefully keep the teams balanced.

- Full PVP will be turned on. Players should not hunt down others except during a PVP event, however PVP is on in order to make accidental friendly fire a possibility. Anyone killing other players deliberately may find themselves ejected from the server. You have been warned.

- We will restart the world once interest dies off in order to try out new rules and ideas.
