Project Zomboid

Genuinely not having fun.
Okay starting off, I know everything I am about to say is either changing or liable to change. It's an unstable build, it will get better, I know it will get better. But right now I am just not vibing with the gameplay. I tried playing Apocalypse, and it was an annoying slog. I tried to play survivor, and it was an annoying slog. Then I went into sandbox, and tuned the game to my liking. And although it wasn't a slog anymore, it was still annoying.

I can't do ♥♥♥♥ in any of the starter spawns except Echo Creek because every single citizen in Kentucky decided they was finna live in Rosewood. I can't even kill the bare minimum amount I need to because of either muscle strain or my character getting tired. I can't even clear them with guns because every town in the game got the population of Louisville now.

One time I actually tried to just clear the pd in rosewood with 170+ rounds of shotgun ammo (on low starting pop, fast shamblers). I was there for 3 ingame days just shooting, and they were still coming out of nowhere. WHERE ARE THEY COMING FROM. I only play with shamblers now because playing with fast shamblers feels like playing with sprinters. I would forgive all of this if the loot was still good, but it's just not.

I busted my ass for the better part of 3 ingame days to get most of the zombies of the rosewood prison to be distracted. Then I fight my way to the armory in the building to the left, and there's no guns or ammo there. Apparently the actual armory is somewhere in the prison, so now if I want 2 extra shotguns I have to clear out the whole thing. Why. Why was this a decision that was made. I didn't go in like Rambo, I planned my approach accordingly, I adapted to the harder playstyle. Why would you change the loot location, why would you do this to me.

And I really don't like the new moodles. Not the artstyle, the actual new moodles. My character started getting sad because he wore swat armor and knee pads for longer than 5 seconds. If I was in the zombie apocalypse, and I had swat armor, I wouldn't be sad. I kill more than 5 zombies and my character starts coughing and pissing and crying because it smells bad. That smell one isn't a big deal but it is annoying ahh hell.

And some of the gameplay changes don't make no sense. I can't make a molotov, I can't hammer nails into a baseball without level 1 carpentry, I cant siphon gasoline without a hose, I can't open doors while eating, I can't use furniture to barricade a doorway, and I somehow keep getting cut and scratched near everytime I go through a bush/tree. The ♥♥♥♥ is not made of razor wire.

I don't understand. I know it's supposed to be realistic, but it's not fun. Spending 2-3 business days to clear out a fire department in a small town is not fun. Not being able to swing an axe for more than 6 zombies is not fun. Getting 2 bullets and a bag of chips from a fire department is not fun. Having to manually place bread on the counter to slice it is not fun. It didn't even say I needed to do that, I had to look it up cuz I wanted to make a pb and j sandwich.

Yeah the endurance nerf for melee weapons really sucks. You just end up resting all the time. I hope they tone it down or change it back to how it was in B41

I found out from testing that it's all tied to the weight of the weapon, if it weights more, then it will use more endurance. One swing from the Firefighter Axe uses 1 endurance and sometimes even 2!! Absolute crazy

Im killing stuff ok with a dedicated str and fitness build but i just started a run and cleared the fireouse and the police station including locked door not one gun , not one axe , not one knightstick.

Im ok with the game being hard i had to play smart kill like 30 zombies sit take breaks but there was nothing worth it for my effort. Now its unstable build maybe loot is bugged but its bad right now and the fact my person is too stupid to easily find long sticks to make spears mankinds oldest most useful tool is absurd.

Chalk it up to early access to an unstable build but its not fun in its current state , Its not like i want easy either but if i clear the police station including dozens of police zombies i should be able to find one knightstick so im not having to stomp every zombie head.
I believe theyre aware of some locations like rosewood not having good loot , itll be fixed. Someone on the discord cleared it and found a bucket lol so yeah.

You can download a mod for moodles I dont think they have any intention on changing them. Most of the other things you have mentioned have been fixed in the hotfix that is upcoming.

Regarding muscle strain have you tried playing with strength trait, because I find myself having to put muscle strain up to 1.6 because I can just clear and clear. And I play strictly melee. I think on this last save i killed 640 in 24 days just fine.

Excellent, can't wait for the hotfix. No I haven't tried playing with strength, I usually don't have enough points to get anything above the 6pt traits (without taking a lot of negative ones that is).
I dont like 42 either. Sticking to 41 until they fix all the crap that they made worse

Hrmm.... the Rosewood Fire Department station has been nerfed for loot. In b42 you'd be lucky to get 2 good axes and a jacket and pants out of it. Getting more than that is super rare and getting less is quite likely.

However there are not one but two basements in Rosewood in B42 residential that have a TON of ammo in them. B41 you got a bit form the Police Station however now between the Police Station and the two basements you get a LOT more in my experience. Less guns much more ammo.

Yeah I play with high loot spawn in sandbox, so I was surprised when I got 2 fire axes instead of 5. I don't usually go basement hunting so I didn't know about the ammo ones. I'll definitely have to check that out.

At least you still get the usual fire station loot. Mine got turned into metalheads' den. There's nothing but musical instruments there. LMAO.
I dont know its my luck or not but i can never even survive a day especially in multiplayer. I just attract zombies so early theres just no point but to restart. I see people have fun and use the tactics but i just have the bad luck turning a corner and theres a horde waiting for me and its the amount you just cant shake.

A huge horde isn't really harder to shake than one zombie, just jog your way to some trees or another building, break their line of sight and change direction, they will just keep going the way they last saw you.
I used to play low strenght low fitness character, it's honestly a non-issue for me, though endless stragglers is actually dangerous now due to varying zombie speed.

Some Westpoint or Riverside spawns are honestly aids you have to run to the forest because you attracted an horde early and had no way to avoid it, if you don't know the map you are kinda cooked. So it's understandable especially with the buggy aggro range of multiplayer.

But really just run to the next forest or find a car that somehow works with the key on.
hell yeah for the post from me man i am with you all the way.
Sumn sucked the fun out of b42 and you cover many aspects of the rage it induces.

1. The risk reward is not paying off
2. the craft has been altered.
3. the defence has been altered
(also cubicles are no longer valid walls when combined with objects for player or zombies)

muscle strain prevents any progress(though it shouldn't go it should just be tuned up the high end of endurance) high starting populations seems mental.
the gas station in WP on a bad spawn (pretty sure the numbre of zombies is random) if you spawn in WP in the residence then the gas station and town is ♥♥♥♥♥♥.
if you spawn in town at the hotel, or bank, or otherwise a bakery perhaps, then the gas station is fine otherwise it is literally insane 16x population. some population is so badly designed that the engine cannot process that many zombies on CPU without stutter.

I feel zooming out too far aswell screwing the game.

anyways

on point what you say. and we pray that the next version reveals that it was all abit of a joke. that there really isn't somebody working on the team who actually enjoys this :)
lol

i mean its not evil to say it had decreased, tonnes of work on the map and all that is absolutely great. but its just there ain't no game imo. I probably tried it for like 8-12 hours since december. nothing too exciting about it to want it ruined. once animals had beeen visited (which i didn't visit them all all species) once a few common species had been seen, it was just impossible to base up anywhere except 1 completely isolated echo location and another north farm escape of Riverside.


I had noticed i wasn't getting any tree scratches, but tonnes from farm crops.

anyway
was reading on phone i had to switch my cpu on come reply to this because yeah man
its on point the perfect kind of review reflects the felt reality.
Yeah tried the forest it calms the horde but also leaves me tired out. Almost held out but alas a different horde from behind a fence i couldnt see behind has surrounded me. I just have the worst luck in this game.
