Is there any reason to take veteran over police officer + brave? Officer gives you nimble multipliers which is a super important stat that's aids to level and it gives you more aiming than veteran. Literally the only reason I take veteran is because it's cooler and you get an eyepatch. I think veteran/desensitised needs a buff or something because I feel like it's meant to be police officer but more expensive so it should be better at least in some way or offer something.

I feel like Veteran should be the shooting focused occupation, police officer having nimble bonuses alone makes it still very good. Maybe desensitised could offer some unique stuff for when(lol) NPCs are added

Panic is such a non issue after December when your panic reduction stat maximizes out. Even before then it really only impacts you when you're at your weakest and can be completely negated with pills or even beer if you're playing a server where you don't have to worry about booze making you sleepy.

this is the problem with this update. all these things are more bloat for what is the worst part of the game, standing around and looking at progress bars fill up in your base. base building is so boring and the devs decide to spend the next five years having the patch be a major focus for that. something like melee combat and shooting NEEDS to be fixed before NPCs come in otherwise combat with NPCs will be a shit show.

>>
>>915561
The longer you stay in one chunk the more zombies should migrate to raid that chunk. Player made wooden and metal constructions should degrade and rust over time. Zombies should be able to break non-player fences and walls but just take longer. Siren like zombies that alert a horde if you don't stealth/1 shot it. Your character get depressed faster if staying in one place, regardless of activity.

Yes, if you are facing a horde of hundreds or thousands, brave will not do a thing to keep the panic down. That is pretty much the only situation though, mass wiping out a town with guns.

I really don't know when to use guns? I feel like using a gun is just gonna expend so much ammo because it attracts half the town to your location. So I only use the quietest guns. I always make gun builds but I seldom use guns because it's easier to down 20 zombies with a fire axe than attract 70. If ammo came in bigger amounts maybe I'd use them more but the zombie to ammo ratio is pathetic if you want to use guns at all (maybe I just don't go to the right places)
>>916007
>mass wiping out a town with guns
Should I even attempt this with insane pop? What's the current sound radiuses for guns?
>>
>>916023
Unless you are willing and able to wipe out half the town, guns should be used situationally, in emergencies and such. Handguns though have a pretty small sound range, they are easy to use, and ammo is plentiful. So, I imagine they would be more viable with insane pop; you could use one on a loot run gone wrong without it being suicide.
No, you probably should not try to wipe towns with insane pop, unless you increased ammo spawns. Guns, shotguns in particular, are very good for clearing out an entire area, but if you don't have the ammo to face an entire horde, you will die. I had a lack of ammo when I was clearing out towns on normal pop. Sound radius varies by gun, values are on the wiki.

Sizable, but that's beneficial if you plan on wiping out an area
When I need some place 100% clear, I roll out with a pump action and an m9
Fire off a quick shot to get the horde started and kite the hell out of em
Shotgun can clear around 3-4 zombs per blast and pistol for dispatching the lone stragglers

Alternatively, you could use a few of molotovs, but you risk burning down buildings with the loot inside

They literally already coordinate a drag down kill ingame.
You think you can curl up enough to outpower literal dozen plus zombies yanking at your limbs? Good luck.
Hopefully they would just yank your helmet off and not your whole head, day of the dead style.

So do you guys typically play permadeath or use some kind of mod to circumvent skill loss? Leveling up some skills seems like a complete shitshow while others I can max out easily.
>>
>>918401
that's not coordination, that's a bunch of individualistic behavior that merely looks like coordination
how are they gonna grab your arms and legs if you're in a ball anon, they can't even see what they're grabbing since there's like 20 of them tangled like spaghetti on top of you
if anything you'd died from getting crushed like giles corey

>>
>>918429
I think people forget how strong zombies are. They're basically people who have no fear, no pain and no hesitancy. Imagine a human being trying to grab at you and hold you down with their entire might, and then multiple. On top of that, even if you think they couldn't pry you out of your ball curl, do you expect to just lay there as they pound on you for days?
>>
>>920057
The prebuilt fences are the reason, not the house
>BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG
>>
>>920065
>They're basically people who have no fear, no pain and no hesitancy
all of these things prevent you from hurting yourself
zombies are dead and decaying, if they rip or tear a muscle, it's fucked forever and it's only going to get worse
that isn't even on the high end of debilitating injuries, if they break a bone that limb might as well be a pool noodle from that point forward
>do you expect to just lay there as they pound on you for days?
you're in armor in this scenario, so yes
all you have to do is lay there until they get tired, then fuck off
they're not supernatural voodoo zombies, they're people, they're burning more calories and losing more water than you
>>
>>920139
No shit, but prebuilt fences arent that big of a deal after the initial few days once you've cleared a town out.
>>
>>920176
That depends entirely on the setting. Zombies in Zomboid dont die over time due to lack of calories or water.
>>
>>915252
Insane population is a blast. Just an absolute nightmare traveling. You have to slowly carve a path where you want to go, and if you think for a second you can lure a big group to your spot for easy kills, it's simply not feasible. You will get overrun. You can not kill them all, and you will more than likely die simply becuase you are now being chased towards areas you have not cleared, and are in a now constant state of fleeing just about. But, it's a blast when you carve a few blocks out with no respawning. Just don't get over confident, ever.

>Full clip, do you guys mark your map like I do?
Sort of. I don't respawn loot, and destroy/harvest everything I can from each home. Even furniture/appliances to break them down. Houses I loot are dismantled so no front doors, and my maps are crossed out where I've picked it clean. Then I label my other resources/spots accordingly. All my loot gets brought back to the safehouse.

Skill journal is a compromise for multiplayer, it's too easy for people to just lose interest after dying and contemplating the fresh grind. Also too easy to die in MP from really stupid things like lag and disconnects.

>But those people are faggots don't play with them

Yeah, but then I might as well play single player with no journal. If you're playing MP and don't like the skill journal because you want more difficulty... just don't use it. Maybe take the illiterate trait to avoid the temptation later.

I dont get it how devs can constantly repeat that this is the most deep complex and advanced zombie survival sim when theres no point in continuing your run after estabilishing a base and stockpile of food.
I dont get how they can work on turboautistic representation of wildlife when theres no content for mid/late game
Theres no point in driving and experiencing the whole world map, theres no danger in staying in one place
How can the devs be so retarded?
Without mods like horde nights, random sprinters and other random events the midgame is dead

Goodbye /vm/. I don't think I'll make it.

So I went to do some quick testing inspired by >>933250
Hopefully my mods didn't cause any interference
>Dropping one storey down (1st floor in Europe or 2nd floor in N-America) seemed to never cause any injury, even if I had lvl 4 heavy load
>Dropping two storeys down caused approx. every other drop some kind of injury (fracture/scratch/deep wound), having heavier load increased the chance significantly
>Dropping three+ storeys down kills always

Some skills or traits affect how much fall damage you take, didn't test what exactly but my bet is on fitness and/or strength. Also heavy load moodle obviously. Some findings

>All negative traits, no skill levels and lvl 4 heavy load made dropping one storey down lethal or leaft me with a tiny sliver of health but I still didn't get any treatable injuries
>Same character but no heavy load cause about 10% damage when dropping one storey down, no treatable injuries

>All positive traits (that might be relevant) and all skills maxed caused almost no damage when dropping two storeys down but I don't think it affected the chance of getting a treatable injury, still got fractures while health was almost full
>Aforementioned superhuman still died when he fell three storeys down

Weird that falling from the 3rd floor (EU) / 4th floor (NA) always kills, you would think there's a chance to survive with heavy injuries if you aren't a complete weakling. Need to test some day if falling from the middle of the stairs makes any difference in damage.
Also why can't we agree on how to number storeys https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Storey#Numbering

Maybe stories simply give a fixed damage and the base damage for falling 3 stories simply exceeds max hp. How much damage does falling one or two stories inflict (which no carry load)?

Also it's likely strength has high strength, even at 0 load, would mean you're lighter so thus you would take less fall damage. So with that, if strength could go above 10 you might be able to survive any height of falls
>>
>>933835
Autist who spent some time testing this here. Damage scales based off of 4 things, fitness level, if you got a fat/skinny trait, how far you fall, and the weight carried. When I say weight carried I mean total weight carried not how over encumbered you are, IE someone carrying 16/20 weight takes the same damage as someone carrying 16/12 weight which feels dumb but that's to be expected with this fucking game.

>>
>>934045
Thanks for your contribution, didnt even think about character weight affecting fall damage nor that encumbrance moodle isnt the affecting factor
I let my autism loose and did some more testing as well with two subjects >>933856
>Max skills, normal weight, empty inventory
>0 skills, obese, empty inv
This made it so that I never took damage when falling 1 storey down. Merely having shoes in feet made me take some damage, weaker character a bit more
Falling 2 storeys down did no damage as well but there was a chance of getting a treatable injury which obviously starts to take away your health but the initial fall still did no damage (checked in debug mode). Weaker character got almost always a treatable injury whereas the stronger character survived the fall without any treatable injuries more than half the time
Falling 3 storeys down was still always lethal even with empty inventory and I always got a treatable injury after the fall. Interestingly, while all other body parts were instantly at 0 health, head had 1.9608 health and neck had 15.9664 health when I was deceased. I wonder if you could survive the fall with extra health or is it coded to kill you always. I'm not savvy enough to test that out

I also learned that you can't run off the side of stairs or vault away from stairs unless there's another platform next to the stairs on the top (tested at 11976x6953). Also you actually don't take any fall damage if you fall on stairs, tested this well beyond lethal heights. I guess if you want to make a very quick escape route from a high building, you can build stairs on the side of the building and drop down on them lol

Also also since I was in debug mode already, I tried to find out if zombies punch you while they are on the ground under your feet because I could've sworn I sometimes took damage while a zombie was struggling under me. Conclusion: You wont take damage while zombie is on the ground under you, you are safe to do whatever you want with them

biggest problem with this game is that it doesn't feel satisfying to grind
hours upon hours to level up a skill just to get a tiny percent reduction in an action
>>
>>934679
the character and traits are all busted and boring but hey bull balls
>>
>>934679
skill grinding is a trap, with a few exceptions it's almost entirely pointless. the point of the game is surviving and once you have secured your survival the game is over
>>
>>934729
they just gotta add some incentives
like damaged motorboats you can repair with a high enough mechanic level, gives you speedy transportation on the kentucky river
or elevators that need the electrical skill to repair, access to higher levels or basements with rare loot
>>

>on the kentucky river
i know i'm being pedantic but it's the ohio river
>access to higher levels or basements with rare loot
i hope to fuckin god they make underground bunkers that you have to use crafting skills to break into
as for incentives.. i mean honestly the whole skill system should be scrapped and turned into a skill tree that's unlocked purely through recipe crafting if you ask me. this shit where you grind for the sake of grinding is just tiresome

my server has this stuff but RP is just accepted, we (the admins) don't go out of our way to enforce it by any means and most people aren't RPers (i don't want to say too much because i don't want to say which server)
>I just wanted to build "smash club" and invite people into an arena that has zombies and players with basic weapons bitch weapons, colloseaum style.
unless you come up with a foolproof method for baiting zombies into a boxed in area that they somehow can't get out of, you're probably going to need admin access/involvement to do something like this

Streamers absolutely pretend to be retarded for views.

>>937457
Because you'll naturally gain tons of strength exp over time fighting/hauling shit in addition to regular exercise. Whereas you can run all day every day and gain basically nothing in fitness. Also fitness exercises have trash returns.

On top of all that shit, if you try to exercise as high str low fit you'll run out of stamina instantly. You'll also need to sleep way more often, resulting in crippling exp gains. On the flip side having high fitness means you can do literally anything all day every day and never get tired. Fatigue/stamina loss is the number one killer in this game, either causing death or boredom.

It's always in my mind to decorate my base. Keeping an eye out on cool shit, testing what I cant and cannot take in the world. Sometimes unnecessarily prioritizing grabbing furniture over essentials.
It often reaches a point where I bring a lot of neat stuff to my base but forget to properly decorate and the place ends up looking like some hoarder's house. Then one day I find the motivation to put things into their places, do some renovation, put half of the placed items in containers etc.
My roof ends up always looking like ass but that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make for easy clean water

Btw I learned that flowers apparently die during winter unless you pick them up and place them. I started living in a house with flowerbeds on the side of the road and I brought some more flowers from the neighborhood. Original flowers ended up dying one day to what I assume was snow or cold but the new flowers lived

Fellas, how come I can't plumb my sinks? The sinks are in a room walled off on 4 sides with a full roof.

I have a pipe wrench and there are water collectors above within the 3x3 range. Do log walls not count as a wall?

I've been told that the sink on the left can't be plumbed but it looks nice.
>>
>>938432
The sink has to be in a space that counts as "inside".
Judging by the bright light, your house doesn't count as being "inside". Does the temperature change when you go "outside" or back "inside". I can't check in-game myself right now but my guess would be that log walls can't create space that counts as "inside".
>>

Here you can see some things that should happen, when you enter an area that is considered to be "inside"
>your character turns darker, if there's no light source inside
>temperature rises
>the sounds of nature and wind are muffled
worth noting that i'm pretty sure the video is incorrect about the water collector having to be adjacent of the tile above the sink, i have water collectors directly above the sink as well
i don't know if the sink on the left can't be plumbed but it's worth trying

No sign of Trey anywhere. All that is left is his journal. Sebastian the lost friend has made a return, albeit worst for wear but not infected. With his return he brought with him a surviving army soldier sent on a SPEC Ops mission to scout the mall for potential CEDA equipment. His heli and the crew with it are dead but hes determined to complete his mission and to ally himself with his saviour.

p.s also thanks man I try to be chill and have fun with the game. If you wanna tag along and get involved you can always add me :)
>>
>>938578
yes of course, only issue would be performance. as shit as zomboid runs, i find it hard to imagine a first person game being able to have dozens, let alone a hundred zombies on screen at once. maybe if the game had low graphics or something. otherwise it would work, sandbox survival game, not exactly a groundbreaking idea.

>>938779
you can do it especially if you are willing to make sacrifices in terms of fidelity. Specifically having shittier animations and more basic navigation (so simpler environments)
I don't think any first person survival game has gotten it right yet. DayZ came close in the early 2010s and then nosedived into obscurity. you need dangerous zombies and you need hoards. not to mention the low-to-the-ground simulation aspects and rpg elements of pz don't really have a competitor in 3d

Because those "big ass AI battles" are not big enough for 1 single horde, and also the arma engine is a complete clusterfuck from a performance prospective.
Try making a mod for it, you'll quickly understand why.

You know, Anon, zombies are humans too. You boasting with your 500 kills - no, not "zombie" kills, just kills - you got during the first week doesn't impress me. Quite the contrary, actually. What is wrong with you? Celebrating the death of hundreds of souls at your hands? And not a single shower during the past week, do you enjoy being covered in the blood of others? Not only that but you SLEEP in the same clothes as well. No wonder you cover your windows. Your sheets must look and smell awful. Do you have no shame?

I don't know if the mod does this but I think without something that gave other clothing items like hoodies/cargo pants/chest rigs/etc inventory and it only had vanilla storage items and base inventory this would be awful.

This is actually unfair, what the fuck was I even supposed to do? Just run away and hide until I'm magically not sick anymore? Fuck that, I'm turning this shit off.

Just kill all the zombies near you and then go up stairs, corpse sickness doesnt go up levels.

Or remove any bodies from your building. Even if there's 6 gorillion corpses rotting outside your door you won't be affected.

If you're dumb enough to kill 500 zombies in one spot and sit there for a full day to die of corpse sickness you might want to switch to call of duty or something my dude.

corpse sickness only hurts you when you're in stage 4, if you start making moves to not be near corpses once you're at stage 2 you have ample amount of time to make a spot safe by multiple means. Basically a skill issue if you die to corpse sickness.

Why are you killing them in the same exact spot for entire days? Literally just walk a few tiles away and kill them somewhere else.
