I am new to the game and watched like 20 beginner guides, tips videos and they are all great and nice, but THIS is by far the one that actually helped me understand the most of the game, thanks so much for making this one. I know content creators like to make "short" videos because it works better for youtube ad revenue or something, so thanks a lot for actually doing instead this longer detailed guide that really really helps beginners.
Oh, fantastic! Thank you so much for the super thanks! ^_^ I am so glad this has been helpful! Haha, yeah, I am long-winded, so I can't do short content very well so I just try to explain as much as possible as I play to make things clear :) This is such a fun game! I hope the zombies are playing nice as you enjoy the game haha ;)
I'm in the exact same position right now, I played 2-3 runs by myself but am struggling pretty hard so looking forwards to watching this and getting better! :)
I got the raven city mod and started on the roof of a building with zombies smashing through the window to the roof. They were everywhere. Dodged until I could dodge no more.
I played jedi fallen order on the second hardest difficulty and never learned that you could upgrade your health after the first one you get, If I just Googled a simple walk through that game I would have had so much easier of a time beating it. You're never too good to not re learn the basics cause there is useually somethinh you miss lol
dude, i like you already. i was so intrigued off a youtube video of this game, that i figured i might want to buy and check it out. im looking forward to finishing your series because you're super to the point and fragile with explanation, it's so easy to listen and understand you. thanks brother, im gonna buy it. new sub to you!
YES! This is exactly what I was looking for. Step by step, nothing to small to explain! From the looks of it, I'm going to be around this playlist for a while!
Im glad that you emphasized the pause button. In early game it can be such an information overload and items have so many stats that just taking a second to read through more in depth can really help an early player.
Yes! I still pause all the time--looking at the map, looking through my stuff etc. So often I think I'm safe and a Z just pops out and bites me! haha ;)
Thank you for the kind words :) I am so glad you have found this to be helpful! This is such a great game, but there's a lot to learn haha ;) Enjoy the game!
You have no idea how much I appreciate this video. I just bought this game with the steam spring sale and I was kinda overwhelmed but you broke it down Barney style for me! Keep it up! Thanks
Thanks for the thorough introduction to the game, okay. I remember buying and playing it for a short amount of time and being overwhelmed, okay. But thanks to your detailed explanations I am going to give it another try, okay. And while I honestly believe your Guide is the best I've found so far, okay, saying okay after almost every sentence is driving me crazy, OKAY! Much love, okay.
Haha, I am so glad you are finding this series to be helpful and I hope you are enjoying the game! Yeah, that verbal tic is a relic of my teaching and I had no idea how prevalent it was, but I have certainly taken note of it based on the comments here and made a concsious effort to reduce its frequency when creating guides haha ;D
Glad to hear that! I just jumped into a game and was shocked at how many zombies there were, way more than in your guide. And they seem to always instinctively run in my direction before even seeing me. I died in the first ten minutes :D
@@Mrlemar1 Some maps give you a really rough start--the hoards can be far away from your starting position and it's great, but other times they can be right by you and it's awful.
Tip on world creation, the world he has created in custom rules is based on the more difficult Apocalypse ruleset, if you want a more survivable ruleset, the bottom middle bar of the screen has a box, click it and choose "Survival/Survivor" for an easier selection of default settings. This doesn't require any other changes to settings that YOU need to do, but it allows you the minimap, multi-hit, and a few leverages on your life that won't make you frustrated, because Apocalypse rules are meant for shorter lifespans, Survivor rules are for longer lives.
This is a very good point! I was mistaken and thought the default rules that weren't changed by custom would default to survivor, as that is the default play mode in my mind, but you need to change that, as explained above from apocalypse to survivor to make your experience easier!
This is a fantastic series! I have always wanted to give Zomboid a chance and after watching your videos I'm super ready to start up the game and give it a chance! Thank you so much :) You have gained a sub and I'm excited to see more content!!!
Oh great! I am so glad you enjoy this and are finding it helpful! Project Zomboid is so much fun--even if you are bad at it like I am, haha! Once you get the basics and can explore and die on your own, the game really takes off. Have fun!
Very detailed....u make a great teacher compared to other popular RUclipsrs who try to teach this stuff in a 3min video. This Game is awesome, I am a console player and was very happy I could play this on my laptop using Xbox controller 👍😎
Thank you for the kind words! I am so glad you are finding this helpful! This game is so great. I should try it with a controller! Maybe I would get better at the combat haha
Well done tutorials. I am on episode 7 now. Some experts try to do a beginners guide and show you what you need to do but you walk away not knowing how or why. I am giving this game another try because you explain it in detail. I just need to get over the hump of dying first day. Appreciate the series and I will check out others.
Thank you my friend! Haha, I die so much in this game and was so confused at first! It's overwhelming, so I tried to explain as much as possible to be clear as I had the same problem with the existing guides ;) Have fun with the game!
Haha, this game is so great ;) I'm going to try and put in all the good advice I learned from everyone to help new people enjoy and understand it a little bit more ;)
Thanks so much for such an in-depth guide. I had no idea the loot window had an option to switch between containers so now I realize I was missing A LOT of stuff in my initial very failed attempts.
You are so welcome! I am glad this was helpful for you :) Yes! There are so many small things that you can miss in this that will crush you early--when I first started I didn't know how to loot the zombies haha
Thank you, I kept on running into zombies and not once did I think to scroll out to see and avoid them this has actually made it so much easier keep up the good work👍
thank you for taking the time out to do these guides Dr. ... I gotta tell you I enjoy your guides more than most because you go more in to the goal and concepts present in the game that other content creators cant touch or don't bother taking the time to talk about. I would encourage you to always keep a few things in guides...like the goal of the game, what a simple idea to convey....simple things that a lot of other guides miss. Look forward to more ! keep in mind that makes your videos longer but also better, just my opinion you should not worry too much about the total time on the vids. I don't mind to get good info :)
Thank you so much for the feedback my friend! I will remember that and try to always state the goal and main idea of the game because, I agree, many guides overlook that!
A good guide so far for beginners and people looking to get into the game. I just made it to the point that you spawned into your world (20 min mark) and wanted to point out a couple of things. The only big issue I see is with the sandbox creation. As someone said already you're currently playing using the apocalypse settings which is the hardest option to play with(also the sandbox default). It would be best to start new players on initial infection which changes a lot of the settings, starts the player off with basic gear, and makes things A LOT easier. Also, you don't have to change the starting time to catch the cooking show. If you spawn in a house with a TV or find one fast enough you can still catch the cooking show in time if you turn the TV on immeadiately upon spawning in (though changing it to 5am DOES give you the time to find a house with a TV if you don't have one in the starting home). I pretty much never spawn in houses with TV's so I usually find myself sneak jogging to the nearest house in hopes of finding one.
Thanks for the feedback! You are very right that I mistakenly didn't change the sandbox setting from apocalypse, which made the game harder! If I could change that about the guide, I surely would. Initial Infection is good for people who really want an easier experience, but I like Survival mode the best--even starting as, although it's harder, is not as punishing as apocalypse and it's what I did the first time I booted it up and enjoyed the game ;)
To add to this. When you first spawn there is always a show you can watch asap, outside the normal showing. What this means is if you spawn at 5am youbca
On thing I have noticed just by watching PZ content is if you find any bag or other transportable container you could fill it up with stuff and just leave it outside. If and or when you get a car you can roll around picking up any bags that are in the street. Maybe you don't need all those cans of food right away but if they are contained in some bag you can just roll up and throw that in you car and roll away. Having a red tool box out in the open would be pretty eye catching.
Just picked up the game over the weekend, definitely going to be following along while i learn. I made the early game easy, increased the spawn rate of most everything, but made it so zombies wont respawn. I figure doing so i can have a better understanding of the mid to late game stuff(farming, working on cars, building bases, guns, etc) then worry about learning the more punishing aspect of the survival aspect later. And RPing as a Perpetual from 40k sent to cleanse my home city of infected for the Imperium is also very fun :D
Exactly what I needed. There are so many options, I was just lost. Truly appreciate the effort you put into this series. I’ll be saving this to reference as needed. However if I hear the word OK again so many times in such a short time I might lose my god forsaken mind. Ok?
Haha, I'm so glad you have found this helpful! The game is quite overwhelming at first, to be sure. Haha, I guess OK is a verbal tick I have when I'm explaining things--I'm sorry about that... Okay? haha
I can tell that you have experience speaking or teaching. Very well structured and well thought out, for my super analytical brain, this long form content is perfect. I know I’m probably late to the party here, but you earned a sub from me, sir. Thanks for all the effort and work that undoubtedly went into this series
So happy to find a very recent beginner's guide with tons of great tips and info. Been debating getting this on my Steam Deck for a while but most vids/series are like a year or more old - and I know there's been major updates and changes since most of them were recorded. Will definitely be binge watching what's up in this series so far to help make my decision heh Thanks!
Haha, great! I am so glad you are finding this helpful :) Let me know how it plays on Steam Deck if you decide to buy it ;) Seems like it would be a good fit!
@@DrIncompetent I'm pretty much sold on it lol My only concern is how the controls will be. There's a LOT of different menus and things. I've played many PC originating (and exclusive) games on it and some that do have controller support included don't always work well unfortunately.
@@PlayfulDead22 Its not bad on the steam deck! Definitely recommend setting one the touch pads to be your mouse and rear buttons to be left/right click. Makes dealing with the menus a bit easier if youre playing handheld.
@@CaspianCrowley So, I have the left touchpad remapped as mouse movement and R4 as Left Click. I always remap games to have L4 as screenshot and L5 to bring up the keyboard usually. I remapped the right touchpad to swipe up to zoom in, swipe down to zoom out. R5 is currently remapped to F2. I really would love it if the controller controls could be set up so that you'd hold in right trigger/bumper to activate combat controls, so then A would become attack and B would become push.
I just bought the game during the steam spring sale and wanted to thank you for your PZ series. You have explained things so well and I have a much better understanding of the game. I subscribed as well.
Oh fantastic! I'm so glad you are enjoying the game and are finding this helpful. PZ is one of those games that I love even though I'm terrible at it haha ;D I died? Time to start a new character! haha
Thanks for this series, the realization that you respawn into the same map and can reclaim your stuff was huge for me. Had no clue what I was doing before. Your definitely the Bob Ross of the apocalypse!
Good videos to not just tell people tips, but teach them to actually get some game sense and figure out how to learn things be themselves later on knowing what to look for.
Thank you! That's the idea--to try and give the basics so you can enjoy the game on your own and still be surprised and have a better understanding of why things happen.
Love the beginners guide. Thanks for not showing off too many cheese strats in video one. Checked it out since i became rusty. Jumping through the needed tutorials for my skill set. Thanks bromego!
Thank you so much for this guide ! It has helped me tremendously understand the game mechanics better. I'm loving every moment of this game, and you've just made it even better. It's insane how much detail has been put into it. You're also extremely relaxing to listen to, and you're very good at building up on knowledge at a logical pace. Keep up the great work. I'm on chapter 13 of this playlist . Thanks again, and have a great day
@DrIncompetent yeah, I'm starting to see that with everyhour ! Loving your burger build btw.. currently moved out to riverwood, making a general store my home, there is a gas station nearby, and even q lumber mill. I'm right by the water. This is my best run yet, stocking up for the winter and trying to figure out how I'm gonna be surviving once power runs out. Does the gas station have unlimited fuel ? :)) Atm I'm so addicted I only play this game, and when I'm not playing I watxh your playthroughs hehe LOVE IT!!
I'm pretty sure the toolbox is a container. You have to equip it in your hands to inspect the contents. When you hovered over the toolbox it showed a screwdriver inside. Hope this helps anyone else. Thanks for the guide!
Man, I have to say I downloaded the game and gave up pretty quickly due to its complexity, after watching your guide which is so well done I'm really enjoying the game right now, thank you very much you helped me a lot 👍💯
Such a good video, thanks for making the time to create this! Looking forward to next one. Initially it seemed like your explanations were too detailed, like for someone who is not at all familiar with these concepts, but I was so wrong! The way you explain makes it stick and helped me notice things that I would have otherwise ignored. A pleasure to listen to you talk.
Oh finally. A guide like this... I really tried to complete the game without guide but no... I just died with no clue of how and why and what would I do better, but now I have this. Thanks!
Haha, exactly! My first attempts were horrible and I was about to pass on the game, but once you get the basics you can survive much longer and the game becomes so much more fun! Now I'm hooked ;)
I just got the game, have wanted to play it for a while because it both intimidates and fascinates me with the realism with certain actions and how in depth mechanics can be. Loved the video and will definitely be watching the rest of the series to pick up more tips for survival.
You are right on--the realism is insane. As you get further, the sheer volume of things you can do is wild. That being said, it's quite intimidating to learn it all at first haha
I also did a search to see if you hd a guide for Loop Hero (found it), since I got a little stuck, and by chance found Zomboid here as well. Amazing. I got this game as backer in what feels like a billion years ago. I love the idea, the visual, but never got the hand of it. I dream about enjoying it co-op mode with my wife and, once again, Dr Incompetent (clearly extremely competent) to the rescue! Thank you so much for all this great content.
This game is so good, but it took me a lot of dying to get into it haha ;) I still have a lot to learn but really enjoy finding out all the details that make this such an immersive experience.
Oh, you actually have a Let's play of it! hahahah (well, of course you would) But I find no guide as of yet, am I right? I've also just seen that you're streaming Jupiter Hell! I was going to say hi but apparently there is no chat I have access to. I love that game.
Hey! Great Tutorial! Btw. I saw you canceling the "open window-prompt" way to early, so my advice is don't cancel the act, it works surprisingly often, many times it just takes a lot longer (depending on the window). If you character isnt able to open the window it will cancel by itself.
I know im late to the party, sorry, and i dont know if anyone else has mentioned this yet, but a tip for breaking into houses: You can keep working at windows until they either open or you hear a loud *snap* of the lock breaking. Watching you circle the house not fully checking most windows and staying too long on ones with broken locks was ironically funny to watch in a tutorial video
Haha, I just enjoy making videos so I tend to make a lot haha ;) So glad you are enjoying the tutorials--I have a great time approaching the game from an instructional side if I can haha
@@DrIncompetent hi im sorry if this is in the video but i dont really ahve the time for an ENTIRE 1 hour video does this mention how to survive the chopper event? and if so what time stamp? i keep finding enough food and water to make it but weaponry becomes an issue especially once the zeds start banging on my window, i cant exactly go out and deal with them without the retarded helicopter pilot sitting ABOVE my house drawing them in for miles
15:32 it does provide a really nice "fug it we ball," moment when you notice you're getting queasy without eating bad food. You're gonna turn, so run around and learn more about the map/skills/etc on the way out lol
You've done like 10 different guides for games I've either wanted to learn but couldn't for whatever reason (Wayward for example) or played so long ago I've forgotten/the game's changed so much (Zambies) that you get a sub. Holy shit you put out some great content. Edit: Oh my god you're a real life Mr. Mackey, mmm'kay? Your style works so well... but I had to give you a little shit about that verbal tic.
@@DrIncompetent Mine's "y'know." I tend to ramble off into the clouds and "y'know," is my attempt to make sure I'm grounded by asking other people if... well, if they know what I mean. :P You should do a guide for Siralim Ultimate and/or Warsim. Both games are blind playable and neither game is a simplistic audiogame. Honestly, I think you'd get a kick out of them. SU especially.
Safe to say I have just played project zomboid for a good few hours without dying for my second time playing after watching this thank you so much. I was always encumbered 😂😂
Started playing yesterday, and noticed turning the time to 5am, and you spawn in house with tv, tune in to the life and living channel at once, you get the 12 pm broadcast then aswell (fishing i think it was), then another broadcast at 6am, after that it continues normally.
I am late to this party, and don’t own a machine I can play this game on. I’m watching this tutorial because I enjoy watching this game and enjoy you explaining things. I just wanted to comment to say how much I appreciated your responses to the repeated criticism of your vocal tics. Good job, doc.
I'm definitely loving the game. I just got the game last week and have been having a blast learning the game! I wanted to make sure I didn't miss anything after surviving my first week in game. The crafting menu tab is one I missed. Once I can survive a month I'll check the rest in the Playlist out. It's a great reference to make sure I am actually understanding the mechanics.thanks my dude!!
I am so glad you are having fun with the game! It is so fantastic. You can definitely come back and learn from my deaths haha ;) There is a lot to go over in this one!
10:56 I ALWAYS pick Unlucky, weak stumach and slow reader. They dont affect you mutch at all. The unlucky gives you 10% less loot but its just not noticable. And weak stumach just dont eat rotten or dangerous food. And slow reader is countered by speeding time in singleplayer.... Very easy almost free points with little downsides
Crayons will allow you to mark your map in all four colors, without collecting the four pen types. Not all "Junk" items are useless. Also, you do not need to hold the E key to pry open windows. Your character will automatically continue to do so until they successfully open it or figure out it's locked.
I don't actually need the guide as I have 400+ hours now, but I wanted to thank you for making this. I would have loved something like this when I started. This video has obviously helped a ton of people so far and will continue to do so. Great work, my friend. Subbed.
Thanks so much for the kind words! This game is so fantastic, but it's just a ton to take in when you start out haha. I'm trying to hopefully take the knowledge from my many deaths and help new people get further because it gets even better as you make progress haha
I like to be a pummeling force to be reckoned with that can clobber zombies! So I go with negative trait thirst, positive traits Strength (+10) and Brave!
Dude i’m so sorry for the toxic comments a year ago, I have no idea why I wrote that lmfao this is awesome content!! it’s literally my comfort walk through right now! pls make an updated version for the next patch! ❤ sowwy
I just started playing this game ... at first, trying to find information is extremely daunting. I have to say that I love the way you present the information. I'm about an hour in and I can't wait to watch more and learn new things from you :) Fantastic video, subscribed and liked. :D
Oh great! I am so glad you are finding this video to be helpful. This game is so amazing, but is very intimidating at first haha ;) I hope you have fun with it!
hold on around 19:39 you mentioned that the home you spawn in is safe, I can tell you with certainty that it's not always the case. I had a trailer home with like 7 zombies on one character i did that I spawned in with.
Awesome. Just bought this game. The controls are very janky and bad. Being isometric also makes it tougher than it needs to be. I watched and commented on a lot of your RS content and you were gracious enough to reply to my comments on every old vids. Thanks.

Excited to watch this now
I was literally going to comment the same thing more or less haha
I'm in the exact same position right now, I played 2-3 runs by myself but am struggling pretty hard so looking forwards to watching this and getting better! :)
I spawned into a house with 6 zombies with birthday hats on.. they ate me instantly :D. So not all spawns are safe!
You were birthday cake
I just had that happen to me :D
Same, it was exactly my second spawn in my whole experience. Traumatised me
@@Travis_DeGee🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I got the raven city mod and started on the roof of a building with zombies smashing through the window to the roof. They were everywhere. Dodged until I could dodge no more.
does anyone else have over 1000 hours in-game yet still find themselves watching every beginners guide that pops up?
Haha, it's such a good game with so much to learn--I watch guides too haha
@@DrIncompetentwho do you watch ?
Of course I know him, he's me....
I played jedi fallen order on the second hardest difficulty and never learned that you could upgrade your health after the first one you get,
If I just Googled a simple walk through that game I would have had so much easier of a time beating it.
You're never too good to not re learn the basics cause there is useually somethinh you miss lol

@@DrIncompetent Thank you, I will do my best! The learning curve is steep, but I sense here it's worth the effort.
BRO I followed your entire Factorio guide and got through that entire game with it, good to see you here as well.
Haha, awesome! Thanks so much for watching! I hope you enjoy this series as well!
@@DrIncompetentWould you consider re-doing this guide for 2024? That would be awesome. ^~^
I rage quit and give up this game after 30 minutes playing. Now this video really helps me restarting. Many thanks
Oh great! I'm so glad you are finding it helpful. I have rage quit many times as well, haha. I die a lot, as you can see haha
Oh man I was doing good till I found some loot them died and had to watch my fully kitted corpse chase me along with 20 others while weaponless 😅
You have no idea how much I appreciate this video. I just bought this game with the steam spring sale and I was kinda overwhelmed but you broke it down Barney style for me! Keep it up! Thanks
Haha, awesome! I am so glad you are finding this useful and are enjoying the game! It is so much fun--even though I die all the time haha
Thanks for the thorough introduction to the game, okay.
I remember buying and playing it for a short amount of time and being overwhelmed, okay.
But thanks to your detailed explanations I am going to give it another try, okay.
And while I honestly believe your Guide is the best I've found so far, okay, saying okay after almost every sentence is driving me crazy, OKAY!
Much love, okay.
Haha, I am so glad you are finding this series to be helpful and I hope you are enjoying the game! Yeah, that verbal tic is a relic of my teaching and I had no idea how prevalent it was, but I have certainly taken note of it based on the comments here and made a concsious effort to reduce its frequency when creating guides haha ;D
Glad to hear that!
I just jumped into a game and was shocked at how many zombies there were, way more than in your guide. And they seem to always instinctively run in my direction before even seeing me.
I died in the first ten minutes :D
@@Mrlemar1 Some maps give you a really rough start--the hoards can be far away from your starting position and it's great, but other times they can be right by you and it's awful.
@@DrIncompetent Good to know :) Thanks again!
Tip on world creation, the world he has created in custom rules is based on the more difficult Apocalypse ruleset, if you want a more survivable ruleset, the bottom middle bar of the screen has a box, click it and choose "Survival/Survivor" for an easier selection of default settings.
This doesn't require any other changes to settings that YOU need to do, but it allows you the minimap, multi-hit, and a few leverages on your life that won't make you frustrated, because Apocalypse rules are meant for shorter lifespans, Survivor rules are for longer lives.
This is a very good point! I was mistaken and thought the default rules that weren't changed by custom would default to survivor, as that is the default play mode in my mind, but you need to change that, as explained above from apocalypse to survivor to make your experience easier!
Best tutorial in the history of totorials. Thank you!
Haha, thank you for watching! I am so glad you are finding this series to be helpful and I hope you are enjoying Project Zomboid!
This is a fantastic series! I have always wanted to give Zomboid a chance and after watching your videos I'm super ready to start up the game and give it a chance! Thank you so much :) You have gained a sub and I'm excited to see more content!!!
Oh great! I am so glad you enjoy this and are finding it helpful! Project Zomboid is so much fun--even if you are bad at it like I am, haha! Once you get the basics and can explore and die on your own, the game really takes off. Have fun!
Very detailed....u make a great teacher compared to other popular RUclipsrs who try to teach this stuff in a 3min video.
This Game is awesome, I am a console player and was very happy I could play this on my laptop using Xbox controller 👍😎
Thank you for the kind words! I am so glad you are finding this helpful! This game is so great. I should try it with a controller! Maybe I would get better at the combat haha
Well done tutorials. I am on episode 7 now. Some experts try to do a beginners guide and show you what you need to do but you walk away not knowing how or why. I am giving this game another try because you explain it in detail. I just need to get over the hump of dying first day. Appreciate the series and I will check out others.
Thank you my friend! Haha, I die so much in this game and was so confused at first! It's overwhelming, so I tried to explain as much as possible to be clear as I had the same problem with the existing guides ;) Have fun with the game!
Oh wow. I was just thinking about you doing this the other day. Im excited for this series. Bravo
Haha, this game is so great ;) I'm going to try and put in all the good advice I learned from everyone to help new people enjoy and understand it a little bit more ;)
This is the first "Beginners" PZ vid I've seen that isn't just a rapid-fire checklist of things to do. Thanks for taking the time to spell things out.
Oh great! I am so glad you are finding this series to be useful and I hope you are enjoying the game!
Thanks so much for such an in-depth guide. I had no idea the loot window had an option to switch between containers so now I realize I was missing A LOT of stuff in my initial very failed attempts.
You are so welcome! I am glad this was helpful for you :) Yes! There are so many small things that you can miss in this that will crush you early--when I first started I didn't know how to loot the zombies haha
Thank you, I kept on running into zombies and not once did I think to scroll out to see and avoid them this has actually made it so much easier keep up the good work👍
Oh great! I am so glad you are finding this series to be helpful :D
thank you for taking the time out to do these guides Dr. ... I gotta tell you I enjoy your guides more than most because you go more in to the goal and concepts present in the game that other content creators cant touch or don't bother taking the time to talk about. I would encourage you to always keep a few things in guides...like the goal of the game, what a simple idea to convey....simple things that a lot of other guides miss. Look forward to more ! keep in mind that makes your videos longer but also better, just my opinion you should not worry too much about the total time on the vids. I don't mind to get good info :)
Thank you so much for the feedback my friend! I will remember that and try to always state the goal and main idea of the game because, I agree, many guides overlook that!
Thanks for this vid and any more guides you have done just re-installing the game now also subbed and pressed the bell hello from Scotland
Hello! Haha, awesome! I hope you are having more fun with the game :D It's so fun once you get the basics down.
A good guide so far for beginners and people looking to get into the game. I just made it to the point that you spawned into your world (20 min mark) and wanted to point out a couple of things.
The only big issue I see is with the sandbox creation. As someone said already you're currently playing using the apocalypse settings which is the hardest option to play with(also the sandbox default). It would be best to start new players on initial infection which changes a lot of the settings, starts the player off with basic gear, and makes things A LOT easier.
Also, you don't have to change the starting time to catch the cooking show. If you spawn in a house with a TV or find one fast enough you can still catch the cooking show in time if you turn the TV on immeadiately upon spawning in (though changing it to 5am DOES give you the time to find a house with a TV if you don't have one in the starting home). I pretty much never spawn in houses with TV's so I usually find myself sneak jogging to the nearest house in hopes of finding one.
Thanks for the feedback! You are very right that I mistakenly didn't change the sandbox setting from apocalypse, which made the game harder! If I could change that about the guide, I surely would. Initial Infection is good for people who really want an easier experience, but I like Survival mode the best--even starting as, although it's harder, is not as punishing as apocalypse and it's what I did the first time I booted it up and enjoyed the game ;)
To add to this. When you first spawn there is always a show you can watch asap, outside the normal showing. What this means is if you spawn at 5am youbca
On thing I have noticed just by watching PZ content is if you find any bag or other transportable container you could fill it up with stuff and just leave it outside. If and or when you get a car you can roll around picking up any bags that are in the street. Maybe you don't need all those cans of food right away but if they are contained in some bag you can just roll up and throw that in you car and roll away. Having a red tool box out in the open would be pretty eye catching.
Good idea!
your voice is so nice it captured my attention and held it
Haha, great! I hope you are having fun with the game :)
Im only half way through your 1st episode, and this is already 100x better than anything else I could find. Ty and Nj.
Awesome! I'm so glad you are finding it helpful! I hope you are enjoying the game :D
Just picked up the game over the weekend, definitely going to be following along while i learn. I made the early game easy, increased the spawn rate of most everything, but made it so zombies wont respawn. I figure doing so i can have a better understanding of the mid to late game stuff(farming, working on cars, building bases, guns, etc) then worry about learning the more punishing aspect of the survival aspect later. And RPing as a Perpetual from 40k sent to cleanse my home city of infected for the Imperium is also very fun :D
Wow, nice ideas for customizing the game!
Exactly what I needed. There are so many options, I was just lost. Truly appreciate the effort you put into this series. I’ll be saving this to reference as needed. However if I hear the word OK again so many times in such a short time I might lose my god forsaken mind. Ok?
Haha, I'm so glad you have found this helpful! The game is quite overwhelming at first, to be sure. Haha, I guess OK is a verbal tick I have when I'm explaining things--I'm sorry about that... Okay? haha
I can tell that you have experience speaking or teaching.
Very well structured and well thought out, for my super analytical brain, this long form content is perfect. I know I’m probably late to the party here, but you earned a sub from me, sir.
Thanks for all the effort and work that undoubtedly went into this series
You are so welcome! I am glad you are finding this series to be helpful and I hope you are enjoying the game. Thank you for subscribing!
So happy to find a very recent beginner's guide with tons of great tips and info. Been debating getting this on my Steam Deck for a while but most vids/series are like a year or more old - and I know there's been major updates and changes since most of them were recorded. Will definitely be binge watching what's up in this series so far to help make my decision heh Thanks!
Haha, great! I am so glad you are finding this helpful :) Let me know how it plays on Steam Deck if you decide to buy it ;) Seems like it would be a good fit!
@@DrIncompetent I'm pretty much sold on it lol My only concern is how the controls will be. There's a LOT of different menus and things. I've played many PC originating (and exclusive) games on it and some that do have controller support included don't always work well unfortunately.
@@PlayfulDead22 Its not bad on the steam deck! Definitely recommend setting one the touch pads to be your mouse and rear buttons to be left/right click. Makes dealing with the menus a bit easier if youre playing handheld.
@@CaspianCrowley So, I have the left touchpad remapped as mouse movement and R4 as Left Click. I always remap games to have L4 as screenshot and L5 to bring up the keyboard usually. I remapped the right touchpad to swipe up to zoom in, swipe down to zoom out. R5 is currently remapped to F2.
I really would love it if the controller controls could be set up so that you'd hold in right trigger/bumper to activate combat controls, so then A would become attack and B would become push.
@PlayfulDead Oh right pad being zoom is a great idea, might give that a try
Thank you, new player here and Im trying to get familiarize with the game and your video helps.
Awesome! So glad you are finding this helpful and I hope you enjoy the game! It's brutal, but so good if you can survive for a bit!
Just bought the game yesterday and this has really helped me. Thank you so much!
Oh great! I am so glad it was helpful to you ^_^ I hope you are enjoying the game ;D
Just got this game and played just a few times and was way overwhelmed, thanks so much for this video. You are amazing.
I'm so glad you are finding it to be helpful! Yeah, it's very overwhelming haha and the Zeds just don't let you catch your breath... haha
I just bought the game during the steam spring sale and wanted to thank you for your PZ series. You have explained things so well and I have a much better understanding of the game. I subscribed as well.
Oh fantastic! I'm so glad you are enjoying the game and are finding this helpful. PZ is one of those games that I love even though I'm terrible at it haha ;D I died? Time to start a new character! haha
Thanks for this series, the realization that you respawn into the same map and can reclaim your stuff was huge for me. Had no clue what I was doing before. Your definitely the Bob Ross of the apocalypse!
Haha, awesome! Yes, respawning in the same world helps so much to make progress. I hope you are having fun with the game!
Wow. Great beginner guide. It's long, but worth the watch. A lot of good information.
I am so glad you enjoyed it and found it helpful! This is a great game ^_^
Nice tutorial. i have watched several, but you highlighted several things that noone else mentioned, and I would not have thought of in the game.
I'm so glad you have found it to be helpful! I hope you are enjoying the game :)
Good videos to not just tell people tips, but teach them to actually get some game sense and figure out how to learn things be themselves later on knowing what to look for.
Thank you! That's the idea--to try and give the basics so you can enjoy the game on your own and still be surprised and have a better understanding of why things happen.
You’re awesome! Thank you for the in-depth explanation without all the crazy editing I’ve seen in other videos
You are so welcome! I am glad you have found this series to be helpful and I hope you are enjoying the game!
a little drawn out, but easily the best tutorial I've found. Thanks Dr
So glad you have found this to be helpful! I hope you are enjoying the game :D
I have 700 hours but I still feel the need to watch this. That's a nice summary of how PZ works.
Wow, 700 is no joke! Feel free to share your expertise or correct any mistakes I have made haha ;D
Love the beginners guide. Thanks for not showing off too many cheese strats in video one. Checked it out since i became rusty. Jumping through the needed tutorials for my skill set. Thanks bromego!
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching :D
Thank you so much for this guide ! It has helped me tremendously understand the game mechanics better. I'm loving every moment of this game, and you've just made it even better. It's insane how much detail has been put into it.
You're also extremely relaxing to listen to, and you're very good at building up on knowledge at a logical pace. Keep up the great work. I'm on chapter 13 of this playlist . Thanks again, and have a great day
Haha, awesome! I am so glad you are enjoying it and finding it useful :D This game is so great once you get going haha
@DrIncompetent yeah, I'm starting to see that with everyhour ! Loving your burger build btw.. currently moved out to riverwood, making a general store my home, there is a gas station nearby, and even q lumber mill. I'm right by the water. This is my best run yet, stocking up for the winter and trying to figure out how I'm gonna be surviving once power runs out.
Does the gas station have unlimited fuel ? :))
Atm I'm so addicted I only play this game, and when I'm not playing I watxh your playthroughs hehe LOVE IT!!
I'm pretty sure the toolbox is a container. You have to equip it in your hands to inspect the contents. When you hovered over the toolbox it showed a screwdriver inside. Hope this helps anyone else. Thanks for the guide!
This is a great point--thank you for sharing this! You are right--you can see little icons of the contents with a hover but must equip it to open it!
You can put containers on the ground to inspect the contents.
Man, I have to say I downloaded the game and gave up pretty quickly due to its complexity, after watching your guide which is so well done I'm really enjoying the game right now, thank you very much you helped me a lot 👍💯
Oh awesome! I am so glad you are finding this series to be helpful and are able to get into the game more and have fun!
I’ve been looking for a tutorial just like this thank you!
Oh great, I am so glad you are finding this helpful :) I hope you have fun with Project Zomboid!
wow amazing tutorial really hard job on it thanks i'm goint to watch directly 2nd epi
Oh fantastic! I'm so glad you are finding it helpful! This game is so fun ;D
Such a good video, thanks for making the time to create this! Looking forward to next one. Initially it seemed like your explanations were too detailed, like for someone who is not at all familiar with these concepts, but I was so wrong! The way you explain makes it stick and helped me notice things that I would have otherwise ignored. A pleasure to listen to you talk.
Oh fantastic! I am so glad you have found this to be useful :) I hope you are enjoying the game!
Oh finally.
A guide like this... I really tried to complete the game without guide but no... I just died with no clue of how and why and what would I do better, but now I have this. Thanks!
Haha, exactly! My first attempts were horrible and I was about to pass on the game, but once you get the basics you can survive much longer and the game becomes so much more fun! Now I'm hooked ;)
I just got the game, have wanted to play it for a while because it both intimidates and fascinates me with the realism with certain actions and how in depth mechanics can be. Loved the video and will definitely be watching the rest of the series to pick up more tips for survival.
You are right on--the realism is insane. As you get further, the sheer volume of things you can do is wild. That being said, it's quite intimidating to learn it all at first haha
I also did a search to see if you hd a guide for Loop Hero (found it), since I got a little stuck, and by chance found Zomboid here as well. Amazing. I got this game as backer in what feels like a billion years ago. I love the idea, the visual, but never got the hand of it. I dream about enjoying it co-op mode with my wife and, once again, Dr Incompetent (clearly extremely competent) to the rescue! Thank you so much for all this great content.
This game is so good, but it took me a lot of dying to get into it haha ;) I still have a lot to learn but really enjoy finding out all the details that make this such an immersive experience.
@@DrIncompetent Do you enjoy/have played/consider making a guide for Cataclysm DDA? I would absolutely adore watching you play that.
Oh, you actually have a Let's play of it! hahahah (well, of course you would)
But I find no guide as of yet, am I right?
I've also just seen that you're streaming Jupiter Hell! I was going to say hi but apparently there is no chat I have access to. I love that game.
I'm glad I could stop by a bit! Hope to watch some more of your live streams in the future!
It was great to have you stop by! One day, I might do a guide for CDDA but I have to learn more first. I just know the very basics haha
Hey! Great Tutorial! Btw. I saw you canceling the "open window-prompt" way to early, so my advice is don't cancel the act, it works surprisingly often, many times it just takes a lot longer (depending on the window). If you character isnt able to open the window it will cancel by itself.
That's a great tip about the windows--thank you for clarifying this!
2024 1st time player checking in lol
Haha, good luck! This game is so fun :D
Same here 😅
@@davidjackson45samee
Felt, been playing for over a week and having trouble progressing
I just got into the game and this tutorial really helping me a lot
Oh wonderful! I am so glad you are finding it to be helpful :D
Playlist saved, new player struggling with the game but loving it
Yes! This game is brutal at first but so fun when you get into it :) I am so glad you are finding this series to be helpful!
I know im late to the party, sorry, and i dont know if anyone else has mentioned this yet, but a tip for breaking into houses: You can keep working at windows until they either open or you hear a loud *snap* of the lock breaking. Watching you circle the house not fully checking most windows and staying too long on ones with broken locks was ironically funny to watch in a tutorial video
Thanks for the tip!
this guide is solid and detailed im new to the game got it installed on my steam deck thanks for this! you got my subscribed button.
Great! I am so glad you found it helpful ^_^ I hope you are enjoying the game!
Love your show! Your kind voice is great to listen to. :)
Thank you so much for your kind words :) I am so glad you are enjoying the series!
This was totally helpful, this saves so much time trying to learn the basics.
Oh great! I am so glad it was helpful ^_^ I hope you are enjoying the game!
Hey man, your upload schedule is crazy! Really like the tutorials :)
Haha, I just enjoy making videos so I tend to make a lot haha ;) So glad you are enjoying the tutorials--I have a great time approaching the game from an instructional side if I can haha
@@DrIncompetent hi im sorry if this is in the video but i dont really ahve the time for an ENTIRE 1 hour video does this mention how to survive the chopper event? and if so what time stamp? i keep finding enough food and water to make it but weaponry becomes an issue especially once the zeds start banging on my window, i cant exactly go out and deal with them without the retarded helicopter pilot sitting ABOVE my house drawing them in for miles
This is extremely helpful. Very clear, very detail.
Oh great, I am so glad you have found this to be helpful! I hope you are enjoying the game!
man, THIS IS COMPLETE! tks bro
Haha, you know it!
I want to stand up for crayons! They’re not useless at all! They weigh less than all pens together, but give you all the colors.
Great point! Thank you for sharing this. TIL the power of crayons haha
@@DrIncompetent That being said, I don’t know if they can be erased. I don’t really erase my marks! ☺️
15:32 it does provide a really nice "fug it we ball," moment when you notice you're getting queasy without eating bad food. You're gonna turn, so run around and learn more about the map/skills/etc on the way out lol
Haha, so true! It's time to Yolo learn as you start to zombify;)
Thanks for your Work Man its a really great Help!
So glad you are finding this to be useful! I hope you are enjoying the game!
Excellent Video! Thank you!
You are so welcome! I hope you are enjoying the game!
You've done like 10 different guides for games I've either wanted to learn but couldn't for whatever reason (Wayward for example) or played so long ago I've forgotten/the game's changed so much (Zambies) that you get a sub. Holy shit you put out some great content.
Edit: Oh my god you're a real life Mr. Mackey, mmm'kay? Your style works so well... but I had to give you a little shit about that verbal tic.
Haha, I do say m'kay alot! ;D I also do um and now a ton haha ;D Ah those verbal tics haha
@@DrIncompetent Mine's "y'know." I tend to ramble off into the clouds and "y'know," is my attempt to make sure I'm grounded by asking other people if... well, if they know what I mean. :P
You should do a guide for Siralim Ultimate and/or Warsim. Both games are blind playable and neither game is a simplistic audiogame. Honestly, I think you'd get a kick out of them. SU especially.
Safe to say I have just played project zomboid for a good few hours without dying for my second time playing after watching this thank you so much. I was always encumbered 😂😂
Haha, yes! Many factors to consider in this! Carrying yoo much can be a death sentence;)
Started playing yesterday, and noticed turning the time to 5am, and you spawn in house with tv, tune in to the life and living channel at once, you get the 12 pm broadcast then aswell (fishing i think it was), then another broadcast at 6am, after that it continues normally.
Ooo, that's great! Thanks for that tip!
thank you, sir. your guide has been so helpful. i am able to enjoy the game now thanks to your guide. i really appreciate you.
You are so welcome my friend! I am glad you have found this helpful and I hope you are enjoying the game :D
Thank you for these detailed guides, they helped me so much!
You are so welcome! I am glad you are finding them to be helpful :D
Thanks for this nice tutorial. I just started to play and it's really useful.
Awesome! So glad you have found it to be helpful :D I hope you are enjoying the game!
Very thorough, nice work
Thank you! I'm so glad you are finding it helpful. I hope you are enjoying the game!
Very useful, thank you!
You are so welcome! I hope you are enjoying the game!
Haven’t played zomboid in 4 years almost. Def got a lotttttttt to learn
Just the graphical updates alone are INSANE same with the new file size haha
Haha, awesome! Yes, a lot has changed and the game just keeps getting better!
this video gave me a better understanding of the game than any of the other bigger youtubes videos, thank you!
Great! I am so glad this was helpful :) I hope you are enjoying Project Zomboid! ;D
I am late to this party, and don’t own a machine I can play this game on.
I’m watching this tutorial because I enjoy watching this game and enjoy you explaining things.
I just wanted to comment to say how much I appreciated your responses to the repeated criticism of your vocal tics. Good job, doc.
Haha, thanks my friend! Yeah, it's a learning experience for me and I have learned to be more aware of what I say unconsciously haha
I'm definitely loving the game. I just got the game last week and have been having a blast learning the game! I wanted to make sure I didn't miss anything after surviving my first week in game. The crafting menu tab is one I missed. Once I can survive a month I'll check the rest in the Playlist out. It's a great reference to make sure I am actually understanding the mechanics.thanks my dude!!
I am so glad you are having fun with the game! It is so fantastic. You can definitely come back and learn from my deaths haha ;) There is a lot to go over in this one!
10:56 I ALWAYS pick Unlucky, weak stumach and slow reader. They dont affect you mutch at all. The unlucky gives you 10% less loot but its just not noticable. And weak stumach just dont eat rotten or dangerous food. And slow reader is countered by speeding time in singleplayer.... Very easy almost free points with little downsides
Yes! I now always take Slow Reader and Weak Stomach in single player, but I haven't tried unlucky. Thanks for the tip!
well done .I enjoyed the vid . thanks for the info keep up the good work
Awesome! I'm so glad you enjoyed it and I hope you are having fun with the game!
Home boy says the word okay literally constantly. But such a good guide either way.
Haha, thanks for watching! I'm glad you found it useful. I hope you are enjoying the game!
Useful. Thank you!
You are so welcome! I hope you are enjoying the game!
Perfect tutorial. Thank you very much
Oh great! I am so glad you found it helpful. I hope you are enjoying the game!
Crayons will allow you to mark your map in all four colors, without collecting the four pen types. Not all "Junk" items are useless. Also, you do not need to hold the E key to pry open windows. Your character will automatically continue to do so until they successfully open it or figure out it's locked.
Thanks for sharing these tips!
I don't actually need the guide as I have 400+ hours now, but I wanted to thank you for making this. I would have loved something like this when I started. This video has obviously helped a ton of people so far and will continue to do so. Great work, my friend. Subbed.
Thanks so much for the kind words! This game is so fantastic, but it's just a ton to take in when you start out haha. I'm trying to hopefully take the knowledge from my many deaths and help new people get further because it gets even better as you make progress haha
i just recently purchase now watching guides since i keep dying lol...your guides are awesome thank you
Haha, awesome! I tell you we all die in the beginning--it's a tough but wonderful game :D
Best guide!
Haha, awesome! I am so glad you have found this to be helpful and I hope you are enjoying Project Zomboid! ;D
Asmr pz while learning! Love to see it
Haha, the killer combo! ;D I hope you are having fun with this amazing game ;D
Hadn't watched any videos when I first played PZ and WP and is the only place I've ever started 😮
Oh wow, I hope you find a new starting place if you make a new world!
This video deserve so much likes 👍🏻 well done sir
Thank you so much my friend :) I am glad you are finding it useful! This is such a fun game ;)
I actually find the game quite overwhelming at first. Are you planning to make another starting guide? Or do you have a starting build for beginner?
I like to be a pummeling force to be reckoned with that can clobber zombies! So I go with negative trait thirst, positive traits Strength (+10) and Brave!
Lol, nice! Smash them zeds! haha
Dude i’m so sorry for the toxic comments a year ago, I have no idea why I wrote that lmfao
this is awesome content!! it’s literally my comfort walk through right now!
pls make an updated version for the next patch! ❤
sowwy
So glad you are enjoying it!
Just got the game to give it a shot gonna be watching your vids👀🤭
Awesome! I hope you enjoy it :D
I just started playing this game ... at first, trying to find information is extremely daunting. I have to say that I love the way you present the information. I'm about an hour in and I can't wait to watch more and learn new things from you :) Fantastic video, subscribed and liked. :D
Oh great! I am so glad you are finding this video to be helpful. This game is so amazing, but is very intimidating at first haha ;) I hope you have fun with it!
This was super helpful do have any suggestions for longplay at all?
Do you mean a long play to watch? This is an ongoing series so it's all a long play haha ;D we cover a lot of content here!
No, I guess I worded that wrong. Do you have any tips or tricks or mods you suggest to create long play series
Thank you!!
You are so welcome! I hope you are enjoying the game!
hold on around 19:39 you mentioned that the home you spawn in is safe, I can tell you with certainty that it's not always the case. I had a trailer home with like 7 zombies on one character i did that I spawned in with.
That sounds awful! I was under the impression that your first spawn in a new world was into a safe house, but I guess it doesn't always work that way!
I know a lot of this but this was so interesting to watch 😊
Haha, awesome! So glad you are enjoying it ;)
Awesome. Just bought this game. The controls are very janky and bad. Being isometric also makes it tougher than it needs to be. I watched and commented on a lot of your RS content and you were gracious enough to reply to my comments on every old vids. Thanks.
Thanks so much for watching:D yeah, this game has a learning curve but really get cool as you get the hang of it!
