I think you missed the title bud.

I dig that perspective. What's the point of surviving if you're the only one

A lot of the veterans are just struggling to adjust. By the time build 42 is in the main branch people will have figured themselves out.

Thanks man. I really appreciate it. We did have a shopping point to switch to jump into build 42 but we were safe and thriving by the end

Classic. The squirrel always gets me

So the honest answer is you're not. CDDA starting in winter is rough and you should expect to go underweight and possibly lower. Your build and occupation affects this but if you have setup for fishing I would probably go for chum. Find a sack and a shovel, create sack of sand and then make chum. I believe there are recipes that let you turn any meat to chum too so if you find that then you can go to the farm and butcher the animals since the game loads them dead in CDDA. Finally I think maggots can be used as bait in place of worms but I'm not 100 on that. For me during the winter I still forage. Acorns can be found which are high fat, along with rosehip which doesn't spoil and has a good fat content. Keeps my calories up and I tend to say in the mid 70s

I've heard that. I'll have to give it a go some time.

@@Bv_gan id start with learning CDDA's controls first the game has a notorious learning curve and that is what most people find the defining factor for even playing the game at all :) Good luck on your venture brave adventures :D

We all suck until it clicks. A few of the bigger Zomboid tubers have run videos on "how many play hours of zomboid until you're good". I have 700+ hours in game man and there are still things I'm learning. I'm just good at my play style if that makes sense.

Its all about practise what BV said, i have over 3000hours in the game and this update has messed my play style something fierce showing you that even a minor change can turn you back into a noob again. At-least i have the hours to understand on when to back off and also map knowledge is very important.

My man, I play a vegan character in game intentionally. I do not know what you are doing but I have no trouble staying between 76 and 80 kilos. Add that we're clearing Muldraugh in our current running series and I've killed 600+ zombies in under a month. Full permission to advert your stream or links so I can give you some feedback.

@@Bv_gan build 42? i ve eaten 3 kg of berries salads per day = - 1 kg per 2-3 days)

Okay, so hunger and calories are different in game. Calories are a hidden value without mods or the nutritionist trait. Generally speaking berries are not high in calories and are actually one of the lowest calorie items in game. Between mushrooms and berries when foraging, use mushrooms if your weight is an issue. Berries are a good way to manage thirst and conserve water. However, crops veggies and fruits (as categories for foraging) are way better to get once you have the foraging level. Stay away from radishes as they are the lowest all around. Avocados I believe are the highest fat plant food in game in build 41 but I'm not sure for build 42. Eat more fat, gain boost to weight gain.

@@Bv_gan i ve ate full cow per day - still losing weight, i ve ate fruits non stop - still losing weight. Seems like now only fat in food works to weight, not callories, as before.

Eating a full cow isn't contextually accurate here. Example, build 41 beef patty gives 400 calories roughly. Assuming that the butchery skill was implemented similar to foraging which would mean your level impacts the quality of the time and number of items produce. So even assuming a single cow gives 2K calories when you eat all that it has to offer we still have to have the calories in vs calories out conversation. I do not know how many calories you burn in a day. The range of calories the body can manage in game are -2200 to positive 4000. So if you were already in the negative range a single cow won't reset your weight loss. Add that you'll be full when you're done eating so if you go fight a horde of zombies and burn those calories then you never made it to a positive or neutral state. It's a math issue here and I can't really tell you what could be going on without seeing the variables of your gameplay.

Do it! CDDA will kill you multiple times in the first few minutes just waking up in the burning house. It's half the fun to just be hoping for a good roll on the start. Skill does come into play after you get out of the house but Zomboid is a game about repetition and experience. I've raged quit for a solid month after losing a 6 month character. It's part of the charm.

@@Bv_gan Yknow what, I'll do it

You know I've picked up a lot of glass in game, I don't recall ever cutting myself in either build. Granted I've already ensured I'm hearing gloves on my characters but here I'm not so maybe I am that luck.

@@Bv_gan Wonder if the update broke it, im pretty sure you get glass lodged in your hands when you do that usually...?

Definitely not a sure thing with the hands. When you step on glass you'll get glass lodged but it'll make no sense if picking up glass that would happen all the time. Even jumping through a broken window will scratch and something lacerate you.

@ Cheers!

Lol. I have actually. I was amused for sure. I also appreciate that well water can be tainted as well. Speaking as a person who has lived off well water and treatment is not easy

Well I'll be working on something of that effect on the main series

I appreciate the feedback. I've flipped the video list based on your recommendation. Refresh or give it a bit.

@@Bv_gan omg how fast, thank you very much, now I can look through them all in one go ^^

Heard. I didn't think of the barn at all at the time. Solid strat though

Vanilla, no mods in use here.

@@Bv_gannot even classic moodles replacement… smh.. fake zomboid fan..

​@canatack9596 how is he a fake zomboid fan? 🙃??

​@@Bv_ganthats pretty good all things considered.

Challenge accepted. I'll find a realistic way into the city in build 42 and give you a shout out when I've got it.

@@Bv_gan haha I'm telling you I cleaned 5 houses in the bottom right of Muldraugh but is imposible to go foward, zombies come from every place there is no way to progress. It seems they want us to go sneak and try to grab something and run, no more going into psycho killer mode cleaning and killing everything.

I disagree. Shameless plug, you should check out my current running survival, we've cleared about 1/3 of Muldraugh within a month as of tomorrow's video upload. I will say that they want you to roleplay your character build. If you're looking for a melee fighter try this build: Fire officer, wakeful brawler athletic strong, standard negative traits will fit. Spawn and get an axe or long blunt, you'll see a massive difference in combat.

@darion88 I'm not sure this a video bro. It took me 30mins from Westpoint vanilla spawn to get into Louisville to the main park in Louisville.

I appreciate the opinion. I've also seen what people are saying online and in other RUclips videos. This video isn't a detailed comparison between guns and axes so not really a space to debate. The only point I'll push back on is the melee noise being as loud as you say as in this video and the rest of my series that's objectively not true. I've enjoyed the new systems and we're surviving well enough without firing a shot.

@ I suppose that melee being next to useless and guns being the absolutely logical choice now for killing hordes of zombies is far more “realistic” than most of the mechanics in PZ. (I’m looking at you Cabbages!).

@@Emankind If it's a statement of "realism" them we can't offer grace in one place and not another. PZ has never been realistic for a person to clear a horde of 200-500 zombies with a bat, knife or any other melee without being overwhelmed. Gardening in general isn't realistic in game as nearly all plants of substance require months of growth time. So putting it together Zomboid is more realistic then it was prior based on this conversation and I'm gathering you do not appreciate the turn towards realism for melee combat within the game setting. That I can understand, balancing realism and enjoyment in a simulation style game is difficult. I personally really enjoy the shift and I would be open to gardening taking even more time in game with many other mechanics being tuned but overall I'm pretty satisfied. As for clearly hordes, I'm used a car to run down large groups and I'm planning a controlled burn soon to continue with that realistic play-through.

@ That’s my point. Nothing is realistic in PZ. It’s a game. So enjoyment, balance, atmosphere and re-playability are of utmost importance. Sacrificing any of these elements in favor of “realism” is just poor game design.

The "walk to" click operation queues by clicking, you can press F4 to go to speed 2 and then you'll move faster as usual. You just can't keep clicking and stay at 2x speed so each time you click walk to and then speed up time let your character get close or to the place you clicked before doing it again.

Full vanilla, muscle strain and all.

I sincerely hope I didn't ruin your run but I appreciate you enjoying having me on.

@@Bv_gan Nah man but my own idiocy did! Also I don't know if it's still a problem with the generator manual but I've found them semi regularly in work vehicles. Heavy duty ones with business names on the side. It's actually the only place I've found them actually.

I feel your pain. I gotta pause every once in a while when I'm out and about not in a safe location. Also really surprised there aren't as many viewers, easily one of the best PZ channels I've seen in a while.

@maackey that's very kind of you. Every comment, like share and subscription gets us further in front of people. I appreciate the support.

Yes lol. All the above is what you're supposed to do. If you like short playthroughs, create super crazy difficult combat challenges. Longer ones, set a goal to aim for. You can, in a single world, have many characters contribute to a single base. Die and go find your dead body or play permadeath like I do. The sandbox gives the player a lot of control of what their experience will be with a zombie theme living within the setting. At a relatively low price you have a platform that can do a lot. However the theme will always be how long can you survive doing X. I will say that if you've survived 30 days and all that comes will making it to that point on Apocalypse settings with no mods, then you've checked the box to say complete. Everything else is sandbox and storytelling after that.

have you tried bandit npc + bandit day one? I asking to know which mod is better for a better playthrough. since these mods aren't compatible with each other.

Thank you. I've become a believer thanks to this run.

This is a custom map called Raven Creek. Basically the Louisville before Louisville was officially released

I really appreciate that and I'm so glad you enjoyed our work. Just taking it one day at a time. Hope you continue to enjoy it.

Tomorrow my friend
