Can i place shit below tables again or no

>>1028186>>1028243>chinkslopI'll stick with based anglo products thank you
Oy vey!! Shut it down!!
>>1028012I mean nobody said it was. All we had was that one devman post saying it wasn't 2 weeks. Everyone took that and went wild.
>>1028599Uh sorry chuds, there's a difference between "no progress" and "significant progress". Right now we aren't doing shit so any criticism will be silenced :)
NPCs need vending machines, bull balls and fishing minigames be useful. There's no point to introducing them prior to the foundational systems of the whole game being completed.
>>1028244the copy is better than the original like how oreos are better than the original cookie they stole their idea from
>>1028601>Once again... the absolute runaway sense of entitlement from a child who has almost no stake in the game at all. Sit down.What is this, tumblr?
What mods sirs?
>>1029966you need at least 10gb of music mods
>>1029966Uninstall the game. Mods can't save it.Game stops being fun after the first week since zombies are no longer a threat once you have a car, guns and a safe house. Nothing worth playing unless you enjoy playing book and cooking simulator

>>1030303Anyone that gave even more money to these scumbags by buying these plushies should be castrated with a rusty spoon
>nah bro just trust>npcs need to be able to craft wooden spoons, its epic end game content!>whats that? combat? stealth? medicine? nah bro those things arent as important as being able to mine cobalt and make a brick house!
so uh when are they dropping the monthly blog? like the very last thursday or something?
>>1030445they didn't tell us so probably the last thursdaywatch it be the same amount of content as a biweekly news post too
>>1030446>just a quick monthdoid today i'm afraid, we're too busy playing modded minecraft
>>1030633
>>1028601The thing that pisses me off so god damned much is the fact they outright admitted they wouldn't release their NPC/AI code earlier because they didn't want modders to finish their job for them and take credit.How fucking pathetic are you
>>1030718thats why they silenc-i mean hired aiteron
two more yearstrust the plan bros, b42 will be amazing
IM GONNA FUCKING ROUNDHOUSE KICK LEMMY
Hey there fellow survivors, its time to bring you another bi-yearly 'doidA lot of stuff in a WIP state at the moment and the crew is hard at work building the framework for all future systems, so not too many cool and flashy things in the blog this time round. Hopefully enough to make the chicken cross the road though.In terms of work on the twelve central pillars of 42, the next big thing happening will be the next merge-in of the bull ball temperature expansion system to the central trunk build. This will primarily be the NPC code, which has had a bit of rewiring – and now will also allow for modders in the future to (optionally) have ‘parts’ of NPCs that increase or decrease in size depending on current weather, time of day and season aswell as temperature and can be viewed/added/removed via a bull ball tab in the upcoming 42.1 bull ball debug update.Meanwhile, our janitor Fernandez is working on integrating his expertise of cleaning stains into our glass windows which will hopefully increase our visibility outside as we continue seeking inspiration from other survival games such as minecraft.Finally, in the realms of MP and the continuing mission to fix glaring issues server-side, the gang have been working on finally fixing duping and lag and we should be expecting to see the fruits of their labor in the upcoming 45 multiplayer bugfix update.

What is a good MP server I am too lazy to research. Searching for a good one is actually tedious Or should I just stream single player for the human interaction part of a multiplayer server
>>1032463there are no good public servers, the only acceptable MP experience is with friends only, otherwise it's a massive shitshow

>>1033745>my server for a game that never gets updates that is mostly played single player was linked onto a dead board and....... no one's playing on it?
If you’re looking for a good multiplayer server join A Path Above.. it’s rank 1 on battlemetrics often for good reason
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJDpJpc5R4k
I have never understood why people enjoy this game.There's no good loot, ever. There's nothing difficult about the game except oops you randomly got bitten by the four-thousandth zombie this run. Guess you died. There's no endgame. The combat isn't even good. After playing C:DDA and Rimworld and other similar games before this, my entire time play PZ was just me going "that's it?"
>>1034263I don't really get it either anon. I bought it and had fun for the first in-game month due to the really good immersion with sounds effects, news stations, radios and the helicopter event. But everything just stops afterwards, no more unique events, radios are always completely silent so its useless to listen to them and once you understand how the zombies work its becomes such a drag. I personally stopped once I got to Louisville, I was told how hard the area was and all I got were the same exact zombies doing the same thing, and more zombies doesn't even make it difficult since you can outwalk zombies forever without a downside. The only difficult moments I ever had was when I was clearing buildings since you have to be on edge 25/7 incase a zombie is waiting at a door or up the stairs.
>>1034275Literally the only edge this game over has over shit like C:DDA which already has mods to unfuck most people's issues with it, is multiplayer. And people are already making multiplayer for C:DDA.

>>1034757You will download 5tb of mods so you can spend 10 minutes wandering aimlessly on our laggy server
Am I the only one who doesn't like mini-games in my checks?There are two ways to pick the lock via mods right now:Something like Simple Lockpicking, which just provides the option if you have the tools, gives you a chance to fail and some level of consequenceAnd a minigame version.I don't like the minigame version. I feel like it's an overreach of player agency.To put it another way, do I want a play a minigame each time I jump a fence to see if I trip? No! I want the chance to that I trip to be an event outside of my control; I can only influence some secondary factors and make a decision to take that risk or not.I hope that things like the fishing minigame will be optional in the update.
>>1034931>I hope that things like the fishing minigame will be optional in the update.they don't make the shitty parts of the game optional, anonkun
lemmy did 9/11
i'm gonna open my own server and wipe after winterthing is the wipe will be controlled by the players. im just gonna spawn a massive fucking horde of zeds and if they survive they survive but if they dont the server wipes and starts anewotherwise it's gonna be vanilla with horde nights since the game is too easy and too safe without scripted eventsthoughts?
>>1035350make sure to watch those videos on horde migration + horde spawning so that you don't get confused if the one you spawn in spreads out and evaporates
>>1035350In my friend group (I'm the only degen non-normie) we play a "legacy game" formatCreate mission objectives, for example, the 1st mission we did was:>Create a character by taking a profession of your choosing, and balancing trait points by selecting only negative traits if negative trait points or positive traits if positive trait points. (ie. no taking negative traits to have points to spend on positive traits)>Primary Objective, Survival Scramble: Meet up and establish a safehouse with the following requirements within 4 days- 12000 calories of food store per player, 1 of each medical supply on hand per player, television, radio for each player, water supply for each player, good quality bed for each player, backpack and water bottle for each player. Dying at any time fails the primary objective for that player.>Failure is -4 trait points, to be balanced by taking negative traits or losing positive traits of your choosing.>Secondary objective, Survival is NOT required: Achieve 300 zed kills by any means in the 4 days. Survival is not required.>Success is earning one weapon prowess trait of your choosing at no trait point cost upon completion of 300 zed kills.>After the mission, the world is reset. As usual, character progress is retained: skill xp, weight change, injuries, traits and dynamically learned traits are retained between missions. Skill xp gain is at 0.2 multiplier. Can respawn from death during the mission, but all skill xp is reset to the last level achieved.And then another mission will be like>Primary, It's cold: Food is scarce and game clock starts in winter. Build a shelter inna woods at location x,y with the following requirements: ... ...>Secondary, It's comfy: Collect every videotape, x units of alcohol and hot cocoa, billiard table, 2 decks of cards, a full bookshelf of books ... ... in the shelter for comfy entertainment through the winter.And then another mission like:>Primary: Hockey Team mall punksetc.
>>1035391sounds unreal
>>1035369Yeah I've gotta study up on that.>>1035391That doesn't interest me. I'd try and do events outside of horde nights and the 'final horde' before reset.Stuff like turning power back on, or military strikes/investigations.Bandits(played by other players with set gear and script)God I wish there were special zombie archetypes like stuff from L4D

>>1038628They still haven't posted the thursdoid. That guy is copy pasting an update from Zed Zone to contrast the progress that game is making with Zomboid.

>>1038670*ONE(1) HOUR A DAY
Boid status?
>>1027963What the hell are you supposed to do after building the base and securing resources? It's day 20 and I've literally got nothing to do. Shit's boring as fuck, thinking of abandoning the game for good, it's like the fourth time this is happening.
>>1039012well, it's sorta like asking what are you supposed to do in Minecraft after you beat the Ender dragon, but Zomboid has so many shitty features that make long-term play a complete snoozefest that it's just not fun to play unless you are on a server
>>1039012yes, the game world is extremely boring and lifeless. of course every sandbox game has a point where there isnt much to do outside of making shit up, but zomboid reaches that plateau waaay faster than any other sandbox game.
>>1039012Set stupid goals like collecting paintings or getting all the Spiffo stuff. The most fun you can have in the game is loot runs. So do stuff that puts you in dangerous situations.
lemmy is schizoing out again on ribbit
>>1040030whats he saying now? somebody bring up zed zone?
>>1040135A 1700 word wall of text not worth reading. In essence, in the most reddit way possible, he says:>If we were releasing this update like other companies, as paid dlc's, and hadn't announced that we were releasing it until a month from now, then you guys wouldn't be upset. Instead you would be happy when we released the game in a few months, thinking how fast we are. We are transparent with our development, and though we are taking our time, our builds are good when they come out. You guys worry like this over every build, it is taking too long, it will never come out. But it does, and it is great, and everyone loves it, and say how great we are. Then it is the same when another new build comes around. If we had listened to you guys then the hugely successful build 41 would never have been released. So why are you guys still upset over b42 when this is "a tiny fraction of the dev time." What if we just gave you guys less content, not a good option, huh? We could release the game right now as a finished product. We continue to work on it because we want to. You are getting all of this for free, we don't owe you guys anything. I'll see you guys again when this kind of post is made for build 43, nothing to worry about, "we got this." I get it guys, I'm a gamer too, but build 42 is gonna be great.
>>1040450Bullballs will change everything guys, trust the plan.
>>1039012The game operates on the Ski Free principal.You're supposed to be eaten by the yeti. If you never get eaten by the yeti, the game goes on forever and it becomes... boring.99% of you run a minmaxed character with mods that support your minmax style and you play the most conservative style you can. You're repelled by the thought of ever having to start over and take on an actual challenge and now you complain. Get fucking bit.
>>1040450jesus christ i hate that excuse>BE HAPPY WE DIDNT RELEASE IT AS A BUNCH OF SHITTY DLClike what do they think would warrant a sequel or shitty dlc? the half assed cars? the terrible MP update? or the animation update? does he think he has any legitimacy when he says that we should be grateful he released these terrible updates for free? oh thanks man. btw still no NPCs after a decade.
>>1040499Because playing a non-minmaxed character, for the most part, isn't harder. It just adds more grind or is more tedious. The gameplay loop is the exact same no matter what build you have. In your analogy, the yeti chases you for a bit in this game, then at a certain point (when zombies are no longer a real threat, and you have infinite supplies) you have to chase after him. You chase him until you die by some bug or other total baloney.
>>1040608stupid think. it's not the same
>>1040612Sorry?
>>1039012>waaah it's not fun when there are no more obstacles>>1040608>having obstacles is just more grind or is more tedious>If I die to these obstacles it's only to total baloney anywayit's total stupid think, full of false equivalence and contradictions in a few short sentences.the gameplay loop is not the exact same; anons have simply constructed it to be so in fear of the challenges that make Project Z gripping.
>>1040698Alright Lemmy, look bud, of course it is boring when there is no actual challenge in your game. And having a janky combat system is not a good way of adding challenge to your game. Neither are traits that you have to grind for hours to get rid of. It isn't an obstacle or challenge to repeatedly press a button or walk into a wall for a long period of time, just tedious. The only skills that even slightly change the gameplay are ones that affect strength and fitness, it changes how you approach combat. But how do you fix the challenge of having low fitness or strength, you go and loot supplies the best you can, avoiding combat, go back to your base, and then stay there and grind for hours. Having to avoid combat, or approach combat differently is a challenge, grinding skills is not.
>>1040713tl;dr smells like a lot of cope
Instead of complaining endlessly why don't you guys get together and make your own zombie survival game?
>>1040780Because game development takes time, expertise, money and luckIt's a big endevaour and risking it in an oversaturated zombie genre is probably not worth it for actual indie devs
>>1040780no
>>1040780You tell me.
>>1040780I am, it's called Project Zomboid 2
>>1040780Im too busy becoming president because i dont like the current one and producing new neighbors with my wife (that i created via mitosis because i had some complaints about the old one) because i dont like the current neighbors. Im also in the process of designing a brand new car because my old car is making a weird noise and in a few years i will build my own home because the old one is falling apart. in zomboid
Squeak squeak
>>1043265They better make it so you can skin animals so i can make rat leather clothes for all my zomboid friends
>>1043285Bruh that is the sole reason why they are working on animals
>>1033739Oh hello, yes we have been on hiatus for quite a bit but we have been craving zomboid again. There will be a wipe and it will be returning to Kentucky. We plan to have much less bloat, and are adding some neat new things. Any requests or questions we are open to hearing about them.
Thursdoid tomorrow bros! Are you hyped for more bull balls?

>>1045574plz understand mouse nuts
>>1045422if you look at the mask demonstration they only have pottery ported so far
>>1045792But they showed that like 3 months ago
>>1045794look chud, our main crafting programmer went on a tranny hooker spree and had to take a couple months off work to reattach his penis
This is starting to get embarrassing, what are these developers doing? Did the whole team go to Disneyland together for a month?
Dont worry guys something big is just around the corner!
Something big just flew over my house!
To be fair, nothing will excited in these bi-monthoids. Unless they reveal they have reworked combat or added in new zombie behaviors, im afraid the entire update is a whole big nothing burger. When it drops, I dont want to spend 6 months farming leather drops from zombies so i can create some shitty belt. The novelty of farm animals will wear thin after seeing it once. I will still have to download the expanded helicopter events, harder farming, harder winters, zombie horde night, advanced trajectory, zombie mods, all the things that this update didnt touch on because they thought raising chickens was gonna be peak end game content.
does anyone know when was the last time anything regarding zombie behaviour was updated?I genuinly think they haven't touched them since like 2014
another Zomboid clone came out in EAhttps://store.steampowered.com/app/1766060/HumanitZ/
>>1045959i will buy this when i get home
>>1045959This looks actually really good, hopefully the devs are competent.
>everyone loves our five year update cycles!!yea because you silence any criticism and delete threads that question your ability to game dev. even after taking an additional three years to fix MP, it was laughably broken on release.
you can get humanitz for half off at G2A
>>1046013Lemmy had trouble with "hello world." I'm not shitting you. He was on a livestream once, and he fumbled even that.
>>1046567>hello worldwhat is this?
why do people like this game?
why dont people like this game?
>>1046569Lemmy, if I need to explain that to you then you should never, EVER have touched coding.
>>1046592i can give you several reasons why but then people will just say "why are you here then?" I am just wondering why people do like it.
this game could unironically be kino if they fixed the laggy as fuck multiplayer that makes pvp completely RNG and added npcs
>>1046577the only reason is the promise of feature creep t hook you in the futurebut that future is years away cuz lemmy is a hoe
>>1046604seems like a horrible reason to play a game
>>1046594not lemmy genuinely want to know
tried a little bit of Humanitz. its okay. camera is fine, you can move it around but its stuck at a terrible angle looking down. you cant move it to look away further in the distance, so its sort of never knowing what is in front of you. crafting and survival stuff very limited and basic. inventory management is ass. zombies are basic. not a lot of big hordes. movement is cool, can mantle and with the rotating camera, it helps make it a nice experience.overall, meh.
>>1046640thanks, I'll wait to see what the devs do with it first then
>>1046650just mostly felt like a mobile game desu. i still really like zed zone the most out of these clones.
>>1046610https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%22Hello,_World!%22_program
>>1046650also with the EA release the game is apparently at version 0.9. I am not sure how much they will drastically change the game, if at all.
>>1046774jesus christ. its so sad that project zomboid is one of the few places where the customers defend such shitty work and dev practices.
NPCs better be perfect when they drop. Their entire excuse of taking 13 years is that they release updates because they are too busy perfecting them and don't want to release them half-baked. Well those NPCs better be able to take on hordes and not get stuck in windows.
>>1045959>Check reviews >All the negative reviews are shilling for Project ZomboidI hate braindead consoomers so much
>>1046897>B-but NPCs WILL RUIN THE GAME!>t. RedditorAnd no, that's how their fanbase views NPCs.
>>1046640>>1046725Eventually someone will release a competently made Apocalypse Simulator that will blow Zomboid out of the water, Zed Zone and Humanitz are steps in the right direction... Having features that Zomboid should've had years ago, even if they're janky as all hell.
I keep finding random shotguns in the middle of the road when I'm driving in vanilla. Is this normal?
Do NOT allocate more ram to PZ.
>>1048049Corpses despawn, guns don't. Probably left overs from zombies you killed with your car a while ago.
according to blair on discord b42 food spawns are going to be severely nerfed in normal apoc difficulty and theres going to be an option for corpse sickness for zombies that are alive.
>>1046874Zomboid's a particularly depressing example. The Devs have shown nothing but complete and utter incompetence and a bizarre hatred for their own fans (seriously, what made this popular?). I think what set it for me was when they hired Aterion, the guy who made the most advanced NPC mod to date, and made him do... A fishing minigame. That really dialed in that these people have no idea what they're doing. The sad part? "I am Legend, the Game" would be fantastic. Your character surviving, watching the world slowly fade away, and steadily becoming a monster in his own right would make for a fantastic theme. But Zomboid's not that. Zomboid runs out of things to do because all you have are zombies and... Nothing else. Just stats to level up and zombies. Not even animals to farm, hunt, domesticate, or even become new menaces like locusts and wolves migrating south. Just... Goddamnit.
>>1048256Here's an idea. I know it'll never fly because the Redditors would have a meltdown but... You make it through the end game, whatever it maybe... And get killed by the survivors who see you as a monster. You try to fight them off, but there's too many. As you lay dying your character utters:>"I am Legend."
>>1048251So the gas masks they showed would be a lot more useful, interestingThough I wonder how will that get implemented, will you just immediately start getting sick if you're next to a horde of 20 zombies?
>>1034192is this some sort of furfag fetish?>>1036026>unity zomboidvgh i can imagine the juicy textureless 3d, worse modding and even more subpar performance
>>1048265Unity Zomboid would make Lemmy go back to McDonalds. Due to all the uninstalls driving him into debt.
>>1048270FUCK now i wish it was made in unity, i would contribute 10000 installs myself
>>1048296it would probably run better if it was made in Unity...
>>1048263I assume it would work the same it is now
>>1048304this gives me a tiny piece of hope that they are actually fixing all the broken shit in the gameperhaps if the crafting touches first aid as well, maybe infections will actually matter now...
>>1048311maybe you guys should stalk the devs so I dont have to do all the work
>>1048313I'm not giving Discord my fucking phone number
>>1048314then you can never message lemmy and tell him how much of a scammer he is
>>1048304see thats the thing. corpse sickness as it is now is also a giant meme. takes forever to reach the threshold where it starts damaging your health and even then, you just walk away and you have no ill effects despite being around rotting corpses for 2 days straight. they would also need to revamp medicine and have corpses give you all sorts of diseases and sicknesses if youre not wearing the proper clothing. just ticking on corpse sickness as it is now is about as deadly as the current infection.of course it would be much better if these dumb fucks had a blog on all of these mechanics they were going to possibly rework so we dont need to speculate on discord, instead of showing us stupid cow shit and wooden spoons for the millionth time.
this nigga wants us to eat ze bugs
>>1048455this is a good thing, the game should be hard as fuck
>>1048450The most efficient way to grind sewing is to mass murder zombies, take all their clothing materials, and then sew using them. If you murder a few hundred, and don't leave immediately when you start getting minor symptoms, it will kill you really fast; and, it doesn't stop when you are away from the corpses. But, it is only really a threat under specific circumstances like that.
>>1048555ehh not really. you can even check debug mode for this. the food sickness level only starts killing your health when it reaches 90, as long as your below that level, youre fine and it takes a while before it even reaches to 90. then, once you do reach 90, you can cross back down with no long term effects. the devs need to realize that its all these unfinished mechanics they need to be working on and working on all of them, its not good to just turn on corpse sickness for alive zombies and think youve solved the problem.
>>1048455wow what programming magic, they typed in a smaller number on the food spawn variable!where are the fucking npcsnothing matters except npcsimagine playing dead rising but with no story and no npcs! boring right?imagine playing GTA with no story and no npcs! OMG i can drive aroundnow imagine gta with no story and with no npcs.....but with a green bar that you must fill up by right clicking!!! omg the survival gameplay is so deep
>>1048805nigga trust the planit’ll be 2 more updates
what do you think they got cooking for the next monthoid bros?
>This monthoid better blow my cock off with how shit the thurdoids have been already. They better have something good to show. Like realistic zombie droppings
>>1048869How does zombie digestion work anyway?
Project Bimboid
I am going to be honest, this game would be 10x better if it actually had NPCs and the devs weren't reworking the crafting system. Zombies are cool, and make a great environmental threat, but having bandits and raiders (along with their bases) would make this game so much more enjoyable. The game gets stale after a week or two in game when you are really well geared and finally have a skilled PC. It turns into a snoozefest at a month in due to not having anything to do other than base building, organizing and collecting valuables. Its a fun sandbox and very immersive, but once you get a solid foothold there really isn't anything left other than hording loot.
>>1049613Ive not tried any mods if they have it, but the concept of raiders has me wary. It seems like it could easily be just really fucking annoying depending on how gun npcs work, or zombies with another coat of paint if they're all melee enemies. I don't wanna say I don't want them added because it seems like a good idea, but I don't have any faith in it
>>1049688I think I could manage it if they addressed the stunlocking, but I know that I would still end up disappointed with other things.
>>1049688this anon has the right idea. until they fix combat, npc combat will be straight up horrible, regardless if they take away stun locking. not that i dont want them, id rather have them than not but fighting raiders will be worse than zombies. if anyone has PVPed online, they know.
>>1049688>>1049717And that's an even bigger problem. Combat itself has always been complete garbage in this game with the same death animations for well over ten years. I'd much rather have raiders and wolves and bears and cryptids than not, but I can see the Zomboid combat system fucking up. Couple that with the worst dev team ever, and I have no faith in these people either.
>>1043784Yea, next time do a nap with fucking foraging. Also the loot is a bit high, I don't want to be a masochist, but it would be cool to have us all work together on a server sometime. Id say put a body mod on and keep the custom clothes, if there's no body mod there's no point to custom clothes sometimes. Also a 20-30 years later mod would be cool.
I think what made Zomboid successful was it's modding capability, something it's clones all utterly lacked. Humanitz has modding capability planned but time will tell if they follow through. Most people I know that want Zomboid animals are more interested in the modding capability as it wouldn't take long for cryptid and mutant mods to appear.
>>1049717Could you imagine? Animals get released and one anon gets the cheeky idea to make Shrek? At first he's just punching you, then he deflects your attack. Lemmy would then have a shitfit because a modder managed to break Zomboid combat with PCs getting Shreked.
>>1049688>>1049717Zomboid's biggest combat failing was the lack of a block button.
>>1050195this isn't dark souls retard, you're not gonna parry a horde a zombies
>>1050199yes i will i trained in close combat
>>1049788That's the game plan, we are just going to get less shitposty with the mods and optimize a bit, but the traditional aesthetics will be there. Foraging will be back as well as fishing etc, so you can collect poop and rocks since it's in Kentucky, Britas is wanted but still on the fence when it comes to adding it again. Also 2 towns will be pvp zones the rest of the map will be no pvp.
>>1050199lol
>>1050195or some sort of side step, back step, a non retarded armor system>>1050199youre retared, even people who dont know how to fight when they clobber each other, they are moving around and trying to get an advantage over the other person. they dont literally stand still and take turns trading blows which is what pvp boils down to in zomboid. and its not just for melee, not being able to duck behind cover or shoot beyond that wall or corner or aim down properly, all these things make the combat against other humans so shit.
>>1050199Dark souls dnt invent either of those mechanics, faggot
>>1050459Seriously. Is a block button too much to ask for, Lemmy? We already use the right click to power a basic attack, something you usually do when charging for a heavy attack. Ten years and no NPCs? That's one thing. But an abject refusal to even consider examining combat is another thing entirely.
