I'm sorry, but if the game is going to continue down the path of build 42, I'm staying on 41.78 for life.
Someday people will talk about how lazy and bastard the devs are.

Idiocy aside, the eternal threat of zombies is what I love, and how they can always fuck you the second you get complacent

That said, fuck B42 and the inane bullshit they added. Fun and comfy zombie survival game has become a headache from start to finish. If there are some that enjoy the changes, good on them.
But I fucking hate b42

This screenshot >>714935648 was my pre B42 final run before release. I mistakenly had the idea of doing one last big run before the unstable release because surely B42 wouldnt be an unfun piece of rotten dog shit? Why would they make their game worse right lmao

Altering the settings is the same as choosing easy mode in my mind. Sure, you can make apocalypse mode easier, but there is what the devs intend (in any game) and what you can do to make the game easier.
>Zomboid devs have made it clear what they want the base game difficulty to be with B42
and I fucking hate it.
RV interiors is the only way I can see myself having fun in B42
and B42 was such a downer I dont even want to go back to B41 for RV interiors.

Honestly no

This game had its big update months ago and has shit the bed every small update since.
Maybe for 10 bucks I'd say yes, but I'm a cheap asshole who gives a second glance to anything more than that.

Unless you are really aching to play this game and know you'll enjoy it, wait for it to go cheaper

again, if you want to play it then the price is fine
If you don't care than just skip it
Build 41 (current and stable version) is good
Build 42 (unstable and future version) is dogshit and the game is going the way of devs getting mad at players for "playing the wrong way"

I was really big into the MP with the /vg/ lads, but honestly I think I'm gonna skip out on B42 MP (whenever it comes out) out of spite for the fact the devs think they can milk a "big" MP update with a huge spike of players. Every day I'm learning new reasons to hate Lemmy more than I already do.

It's the nature of these simulation survival style games where at some point the game stops being fun in the service of more busy work systems and more "realistic" combat.

Happened to cdda, now it's happening to zomboid.

All shitty games are fun with friends, or fellow anons shitting on the game.
I'd give it a try if another /vg/ thread popped up, but I would bet all the fun comes from anons and not the game itself.

You're right, and like I said earlier B42 killed any desire to even go back to B41

Indie stone is a mildly successful dev that had a break out hit release.
That means they will never admit they made a bad choice with their game and will run it into the ground.
I'd put money down that youtubers will kill the game once B42 multiplayer comes out, unlike B41 multiplayer, where they instead shit all over the game.
god I wish I still had all my comfy base screenshots

I love how the devs just keep on finding new ways to make the game so grindy and boring so that the player will never stick past the first 3-weeks of the game because even the devs know that the only good part of the game is the very early game. Mid to late game of project zomboid is so empty and boring that the only thing you can do is just farm and build random shit but with the carpenter nerf that option is gone. I don't understand how the devs are so out of touch and lazy. The only good thing to come out of build 42 is the lighting and increased floors. Even thing else has been a fucking downgrade and they spent 3 years on a fucking blacksmithing/pottery skill for people who play multiplayer only to no include it in multiplayer. Some fucking Russian sperg managed to get working dynamic AI in one year yet these fags can't even get some basic AI working in a span of 11 years.

Needs more ways to get jacked. Unironically this game needs to level up your STR everytime you vault over a tall fence the most because thats like a full muscle up. whcih train the whole upperbody.

Also it needs steroids, in pills or even injections to get a bonus to STR experience gains.

I always play the endgame as something like this post >>714935648 where you get to enjoy the "fun" parts of the zombie apocalypse.
You have water, food, and safety sorted out, why not get selfish? Loot stores for the stuff you want, but not need. find the counters and furniture you like, or go find some fun guns. Shit, you cleared the zombies in a several block radius, why not go house hunting in those cleared buildings?
That should be the endgame, adding more crazy, cool, or fun locations filled with zombies to overcome and loot.
Not adding muscle strain or more zombies in starting areas to add to the grind.

The problem is that there isn't any reason to continue once you get to that point in the game you have seen everything that the game has to offer. I have spent making different bases, collecting random shit to pimp them out but the game is still dull. They should add more events that drives the player to actually leave their base. Adding more items won't help since majority of those items are just for decoration. Louisville seemed like a good addition but then you realize that all the loot you can find in Louisville can be found in any other town, expect for the paintings but even then its just a complete waste of time. The player doesn't have anything to strive for. Mount & Blade has the same style where the player is allowed to do pretty much what they want. If they want to be a merc for hire, go for it. If they want to spend the whole game becoming a trade baron, no problem, want to become the king/queen? go for it. Unlike Zomboid the player is rewarded for that and there is a progression that the player goes through to achieve those goals, for Zomboid there is nothing. Sure you can go clear a town or visit Louisville but there is no point. Zombies don't go away, none of the loot that you find in Louisville is anything special that you can't find in the other towns. Grind your skills(Which takes fucking forever, enjoy watching a green bar fill up) but for what? The game is great for the first 2-3 in game weeks then you realize that is all the game has to offer. You can try to drag on by finding some interesting bases and fixing them up but at that point you aren't playing a zombie game, just the sims.

NTA, but you're spot on. After the initial scramble for survival and sustain, that's when shit goes downhill, hence why early game tends to be people's favorite phase.

I think having NPCs and events based around them would've helped alleviate this (hell, you could introduce stereotypical zombie-movie moral questions, such as when it's right to mercy kill and when it's right to hand them the pain meds and tell them to sucker it up, they're going to be fine), but who knows.

You're right, even if I don't entirely agree with you on how important some of that is.

Zomboid is one of those "make your own fun" sandbox games, and it doesnt give everyone the tools to make their own fun.
I might enjoy the base building and decorating, where as you prefer something more like fighting off the helicopter horde.
The thing is, add to both of those (should) be an easy update as they add more stuff to the game. instead indie stone decided to add migrating deer and knapping to the game, two entirely new systems no one wanted.

The devs have a clear idea for what they want the game to be, and it is wholly different to why people enjoy the current game.
Neither of us will get what we want, hope you enjoy more zombies clogging the cities and your 10/10 fitness character tired after 4 swings of a baseball bat

I agree, don't worry about it. I too enjoy collecting and making my base look amazing. It's great for role play but that only can carry a "zombie" game for so long especially now that they nerfed the crafting skills to the ground. I enjoyed finding cool looking areas and fortifying it but there isn't a real point when the game only rewards you for sitting at one base and turning into a cabbage farmer. I 100% agree with you. They should add more to the base building and the combat but like you said, the new 42 build decided to add 1 million zombies to clog up the towns and no way to fight back since your character gets tired after swinging a fucking bat 3 times(Also good luck finding a weapon because for some reason build 42 makes any weapon that isn't a kitchen knife non-existent).
Nice pic.

Mount & Blade has the same idea of gameplay where its a pure sandbox but it still has some form of progress. Zomboid has no sense of progress because you don't see any progress for the work you put in with the expectation of clearing a town(depends if you put respawning zombies). The devs keep on wasting time adding random shit that forces the players to sit and grind but there is no result for that grinding.

Yeah this game is "realistic", unless realism would benefit the player in some way, in which case it's nerfed or mysteriously worked around. If I wanted a crushing masochistic experience I'd play UnderRail where at least the devs are honest about what it's about.

It's obvious the devs have never done any exercise since they were made to do some in school. The ridiculous "muscle strain" nonsense and the fact you have to grind harder than an Olympic athlete to see marginal benefits.

This update is great though if your Zombie Apocalypse dream is to run into the woods to become a medieval blacksmith, and you're inured against grinding because you played MMOs until your brain broke. Everyone else can get fucked.

There's a mod that let's you be a woman that gets raped and impregnated by zombies and it has a full simulation for stuff like periods, actual pregnancies, etc. You can open up a window to see the state of your womb, how much sense is in it, see the way your fetus evolves over time and keeps on growing until you eventually have to carry it to term then you get and item named "Baby" that you can decorate your room with and acts like an alarm clock every once in a while to attract zombies to it when it cries because that's the best way they were able to code the baby to work within the game's framework that doesn't actually allow for NPC humanoid characters.

At this point I'm fully convinced anyone still playing this shit is deep in the delusions of sunk costs and nothing will bring them out of it. They'll just keep torturing themselves because it's all they know.

Solo gets boring after you conquer your starting town, the game doesn't feel that empty but it sure as feels as dead with only your character and zombies

I wish kevin didn't surround himself with a bunch of retarded dick rider yesmen and actively out people who called him out on his bullshit.
I wish bright nights didnt have its own slew of problems being lightyears behind, but at least the BN team remembers CDDA is supposed to be fun.
I wish zomboid devs weren't the most lazy fucking niggers in existence, I don't even care about all of the changes to gameplay, I just want more actual fucking content to be added. With this absurd devtime and how many people they supposedly have, they should have had a full game 5 years ago but the game still feels like it's in alpha with the depth of a puddle once you get past the first day of survival and actually root yourself.
There's just no fucking winning with this specific niche game.

all of these probably can be solved, but you have to
#1 mod the game extensively
#2 play on an active, moderated mutliplayer server
#3 have admins that organize events and zone areas

I've played on MP servers where we had to work together to gather stuff and clear the power plant to temporarily restore power for all of Knox County
I've seen MP servers with free for all PVP, but modded so it's disabled outside of LV (and LV has better loot spawns and more zombies, so there's reason to risk a visit)
I've played servers with extensive economies and mods that allow completely automatic player shops that work like vending machines, where a whole town and shopping district formed
I've done huge megaprojects with half the server building towers and bridges
I've disarmed nukes that would have wiped the whole server
I've failed to defend missile defense systems that got all of LV flattened by airstrikes

And yeah I've played on terrible pay to win servers and seen friendships go bad over server drama and watched more power tripping admins and mods than I can count
But if you can find a great modded server it's a totally different game

I thought it would be cool to be a construction worker and build additions to a house for a cool base but this game just doesn't want you to have nails.
The persistent world is a cool idea.
I've seen people use the oven to start fires but it never works on mine.

All I want at this point is the ability to mod in unique creature types. I just want to add lickers, hunters, Nemesis, Mr. X, etc... for a true Resident Evil experience.

mod it. zombie jewelry -> metal scrap -> nails is the most balanced, since it give you a relatively mild but unlimited supply of scrap just like regrowing trees gives you unlimited wood.

Nails and ribbons are one of the more easy beginner projects for using up scrap metal as a home hobbyist

maybe the nails you can make are just too shit to use
better question might be why not jerry rig the survival crafting with wooden dowels and duct tape
