me and my friends have been playing legacy for years and oh lord we were screaming when we played this game,complete night and day difference we spent 10+ hours on it yesterday and are already back on it now
Dude me and my friend put our Xbox’s together yesterday, and I think we played for 6 hours straight, it was a breath of fresh air compared to when we tried to use the legacy version to play together. Never mind, we played for nearly 9 and a half hours
@@silencedKilla tell me about it bro it's like the first time we can actually play for days on end and not get pissed about something to do with how buggy it us
Another tip i would have put in for cooking is- MAKE PURE MINERAL WATER ! it gives you 60 hydration aswell as cures dysentery it does take about 2 minutes a bottle but all you need is a goldenrode the red flower and coal aswell as 1 jar of water it is so worth it saves you frim needing 10+ jars of water a day
@IsaacClark-f9l Didn't know they were that cheap. That's good to know. My personal tip is to use a water purifier helmet mod: Equip the mod in your helmet, grab a bucket, fill bucket with water, place water whenever & wherever, select empty hotbar slot, look at water, and press E (or whatever your interact button is) to drink water as much from that puddle. Whenever you are satisfied with how much you drank, just scoop up the water with your bucket and go. And for 1 inventory slot taken, you have a literal infinite water source.
@frozenburst6463 fair enough, I was unaware you needed a book buy I still think if you get this early game it's a literal game changer with the slight buffs aswell as crazy hydration I'm on day 22 and havnt found the helmet your talking about yet any tips on how to get it?
I've been hunting down some guides for the new console update and you're the first one that wasn't filled with nonsense. Great video, useful info. Great job
Played the legacy version of the game and had a good base and all of a sudden everything got got deleted and haven’t played since then! So I’m excited to get back into this game! Good thing I get a little discount for the game!! 🤩
how'd you get the discount? I've had the legacy disc version since it came out, and wonder if i'd qualify for the discount/ how to get it if i bought a disc years back
A few things I noticed, the first is to use the challenges tab and read some of the descriptions. I learned a lot of tips this way. When riding a bike (I'm assuming this will be for all vehicles as well) the camera and turning were set as default to the right thumb stick. By clicking it in (R3) you can change the turning to left stick and camera to the right. This allows you to have an easier time looking around while driving. Great video as always!
You are my #1 go-to guy for all things 7DTD! I just got the console edition - thank you so much for this video - I learned several things I've been wondering about!
I'm enjoying learning everything all over again. Alot to learn but man I'm stoked. I've been waiting for this since I bought console edition when it came out ages ago
Correction for 7:30 , your hunger and thirst meters are still here. They are just on a sub page in the character screen. Right above your player model, you will see a human icon, a bar graph icon, and a trophy icon. Just select the bar graph icon, and it will show your stats in numerical values on the right side of the menu.
@munchenonyou3774 Yep, I typically use that since I don't care about overeating. But before that, I used the number values of my hunger and thirst to see exactly how many points of food and water I needed.
@@frozenburst6463 if you look under the tool belt you will see a green bar a blue bar that depletes over time, the green is hunger and blue hydration, you may have to readjust your screen safe zone for them to show up
Mining is so so sooooo much more generous in this version. Omg swimming in iron. I've been working on the same hole and gotten maxed mining from it with so much more iron to get. My wife and buddy hate that there is now a massive hole in sight of base, but oh well
UPDATE: PS5 'X' button doesn't show menu for building block options; still not sure how to bring it up. As ps4/ps5 legacy player all these years, and one of the commenters that was an having trouble finding the food/water stats, etc, I want to thank you so much for putting this vid together. It was extremely helpful. Cheers!
one tip i’ve learned after trial and error: once you encounter your first blood moon, pay close attention to where the zombies attack your base from. being a legacy player and jumping to this version, I tried to pay attention to where my base’s weak points were - and improve there. Best of luck to everyone (:
As some other guy put it “the zombies are structural engineers” they can seek a weak point in any building giving you direct feedback on how to improve your base
(Console User) I am so excited to finally experience the game this way!!!! I have had a lot of fun with the old version and am totally going to miss the dupe bug BUT it looks amazing!!!! It is going to take a while to get used to all the new things so these videos are EXTREMELY HELPFUL!! 😅 Thanks so much!!!!
another tip for mining that comes all the way from legacy. the tiny colored squares on the map mean different ores gray = rock white = nitrate black = coal blue = lead i am very glad they kept this feature.
Dang!! I didn’t know hunting deer is now at night. Previous update had deers popping in at random near you. I’m relatively new to the game. Barely made it through the third horde night and while I have tons of water now, food is scarce and hunting chickens and rabbits don’t give you that much. Also I had no idea howlers pop in at random once you reach a certain game stage. In my case I started building A LOT for a test horde base. Suddenly no zombies appeared for a good while. I thought something was wrong. And then a chick zombie dressed in white appeared. I thought let’s pull her in to the new base to test. She started coming and then I noticed 3 more zombies coming, and then I noticed 10 more coming and suddenly they were breaking my test base to I ran to my old one near by and I was like WTH IS GOING ON???? So I got like 50 zombies out of nowhere pushing for my old base and I was like “but blood moon is tomorrow what happened?” …. Died once trying to protect my base pillars. Come to find out the white zombie brides were HOWLERS….. but after THE SECOND TIME THEY APPEARED BY MY BASE. Now I got ptsd from that crap and been over thinking it too much. But I like discovering the game alone. It’s part of the fun. Like I know you can go into dev mode to test bases before you build them in the actual game. Me? I like to try WHILE I play. It makes things more fun and keeps you on the edge. This game has a steep learning curve with all it has but so far 3 hordenights have been manageable. Just have to reinforce my pillars so my base doesn’t crumble.
Really useful tips, Spartan, thank you!! These videos really help us console players out! Would you consider doing a video on armour crafting, parts and the different sets and bonuses?

SEA-ment xD ,here in the UK we say Sir-ment. One thing i wanted to know is is there bosses? i was near trader rekt in navesgane and i ran into a giant green boar just laying in the road, took ages to kill it and it gave a red bag.
A good way to handle expeditions is to get 2-3 Dew collectors so you have too much water, then take steroids Steroids allow you to not become encumbered for a long time but they drain 40 water (steroids also give +10% movement speed) The buff lasts quite a while and it’s good to take advantage of the item early game if you are smart enough (It can also be helpful later for moving gear to a new base in bulk)

7:34 Your food and water levels are still under the character tab, you just need to click the icons just under your name for other stats. There's actually a number of other stats available but what's most important for me was having an accurate level of my food/water. Which started to allow me to make more educated decisions for my early game food/water management. I figured this out last night, having finally been able to sink some hours into the game. It was during a zombie filled night, where for my own safety I decided to hunker down in a building I had cleared, and acquainted myself with the new menus while I waited for daylight. I'm a legacy console player that's jumping back in and I can definitely say I'm loving the improvements. There's some quality of life things they can possibly add, but overall I'm enjoying my time with the game.
Great video! I haven't played for a few years, so coming back to the changes (good, bad, and ugly) has been making my head spin. Such a great game, so thanks for the tips!
Will you do a video on the learn by looting system? Specifically what skills govern the perk books. For example perking into Agility will let you find more Great Heist and Urban Combat perk books. But I don’t know about the other ones like Wasteland Treasures and the hunting series.
One thing I have noticed you not doing is sprinting/boosting while driving the mini bike. It makes you go significantly faster and on the motorcycle it is even more noticeable!!
Ive been playing this game since A14. Best imo was still A16-A19. They made what used to be a very open experience into a linear progression based RNG game. They should have just released that as the first game, and have this be a second game.
You could jst hit the Map button and head for the coloured spots(white being phosphorous, light blue being lead - you can work out the rest without being level 132)
Had a lot of fun on the legacy version last year for hours and hours, it was due to the splitscreen which combined with a survival game where you can build stuff and DIG, give it the potential to be the best of his genre. Now they took it off, still a great game and sure there is online. But for me it is a completely different game in terms of experience, even with the old version being older than my grandma with trash graphics and lack of new content 🤣
Another tip! No matter how fun it is-Make sure you exit when you feel yourself drifting off, rest mode will only have you disappointed when your days and loot disappear… I learned the hard way 😅
My go to right now is to find a department store and place wood spikes all around it then to go on loot runs. (Clear out all the shelves to place what you want and build a 2nd floor easy) im a noob btw so im sure there are MUCH better ways to build
Thank you! I didn't know how to pick up my work stations lol or how to go to advance on with building block. Doing my first horde today with friends nd don't have a base yet 😅
Here’s a tip I need: how the heck do you fight the new dire wolves? Literally every single time I’ve had one spawn in in 1.0, it’s killed me. I can 1v100 zombies on foot during horde night, but that thing spawns in, and takes two clips from my gun to the face, and eats me, only to die when I do from the weird game mechanics. Short of building a horde base, how do you fight those things?
a tip for console player if you kill a zombie and they drop a bag you have less then like 20 seconds to grab it or it will disappears what a shitty thing the dev made foe us
I am absolutely frothing over the new console version ❤❤❤ one thousand times better than the origy and so much more to learn and do. This was a massive win for 7days community ❤❤
I did it the old school away with a wrench without thinking about it. Then I walked over to my water collection and held down the button and it had a take option. 😅
Ive had this game for a long time. I 100% welcome the changes. I just need to relearn a good chunk of the game😅 but this is what we do (as gamers). Nice video 👍
Just wanted to point out that you got the loot bag quality slightly out of order. The strongest zombies (dire wolves and demos) drop the red bags. Blue is dropped by mid-strength zombies like cops and wights. Yellows are from the normal zombie types.
Thanks I was just typing in the comments where are the glass jars? :) ... but you answered that one. Couple of questions. 1) I always seem to be getting infected at the moment ... but so far never find any honey from tree stumps, or able to afford antibiotics from the vendor. Is there a way to manage the infection? 2) Dew traps - do they attract Zombies and need protecting? I set up a base in old house. Knocked out windows, secured doors etc and took over the attic. First couple of nights no issues. Then set up a dew trap outside in the front garden, that night got raided by a load of Zombies with another mini horde outside. My fault, I didn't take out steps and make it difficult, so once they bashed down the doors they were in. But it wasn't until I installed the dew trap that I seemed to attract them.
@@Fallenlords1969 you can find honey, herbal antibiotics or antibiotics to treat the infection from anywhere but if you cannot find nothing it maybe you have incredibly bad luck, it happens to everyone trust me. Dew collectors generate "heat" so that may make more hordes come to your base so you should build traps around it to keep it safer as with the removal of jars it is your biggest priority or should be
To answer your questions quickly: 1. Infections are hard to treat. Honey only has ~25% chance to be collected from stumps. 2. Dew collectors and other crafting tables in use attract screamer zombies that spawn hordes to attack you. Longer answers with detail: 1. The best way to manage infections is just to not get hit. Getting hit has a chance for a critical injury such as sprains or broken legs, infections, abrasions, etc. While most armor has some degree at critical injury protection, not getting hit will guarantee no infection. To treat an infection, honey and antibiotics are the only option. As you have already said, antibiotics are expensive, and honey unfortunately only has a chance of about 25% or even less when harvesting it from stumps. 2. Any object that produces items, makes noise, or creates light generates "heat." Higher heat levels mean the chances of screamers spawning. Screamers go to the source of the noise, and if they find you (even without seeing you, like they heard you), they will scream and attack you with a horde of zombies. Within the spawned horde, there is a chance for another screamer to spawn and potentially create a loop of horde spawns. Unfortunately, generating heat is easy. Crafting tables like forges, workstations, cementn mixers, dew collectors, etc will generate heat whenever they are working and make something. Light sources like torches generate heat. Shooting your guns generate heat, even with a silencer (though it will generate less heat if you use one). Thankfully, the heat goes down over time when nothing is active. My best suggestion is to keep your dew collectors elevated on secure platforms and to listen for screamers before they find you (as they make unique grunt sounds), then quickly take care of them before they scream and spawn a horde. If you have anymore questions, feel free to ask. I also have a RUclipsr to suggest known as IZPrebuilt who does let's play of this game and taught me many things.
@@frozenburst6463 Thanks for the info. Got some honey in the end :). As for the dew collector, you hit it right on the nose. I had at least two screamers and everything just went mad after that. Felt like a mini horde night. And I wasn't prepared at all. Will move my dew collector :). Again, thanks for the info and the recommendation.
Hi dude, the nitrate powder tip is really wrong. There are pallets of fertilizer that will give you like 90 nitrate and they are everywhere in buildings. Same with clay and paper.
I like to build a place next to my fort or what I had before the 1.0 version I had my plots inside & on the roof top of my Fort & I let it rain on the plots.
Video really helps thanks spartan 85 🤘 on another video you should show us how to get xp faster like doing jobs for traders or places to find the best loot early game 👍
I have a question, I remember the more you crafted like an axe or hammer, whatever it was crafted tools in general the more you crafted them the higher the level would be. I'm on day five and have gone through plenty of axes, but it's still a level 1 every time I craft it. Do I need to level up a skill? Find a book? Is my game bugged? Or is that just not a feature anymore
me and my friends have been playing legacy for years and oh lord we were screaming when we played this game,complete night and day difference we spent 10+ hours on it yesterday and are already back on it now
It's an almost completely different game
First time player altogether and this game is amazing I'm addicted
Another good tip is to chop down tree stumps for a chance to drop honey which can help with infection.
Thank you for that, I needed it ! 🙏😅
Oh so you need to chop them down now? I thought the game had no tree stumps anymore... Lol
stumps near pois also have a 40% chance of dropping honey vs 20% in the wild

Another tip, you can place mushrooms anywhere on a farm plot block.
Great tip, with the landclaim block to pick up the benches
You can click the right thumb stick to change driving controls.
Bro...this video was cool.
Didn't know about the copy thing and all the new blocks.
One thing I have noticed you not doing is sprinting/boosting while driving the mini bike. It makes you go significantly faster and on the motorcycle it is even more noticeable!!
Ive been playing this game since A14. Best imo was still A16-A19. They made what used to be a very open experience into a linear progression based RNG game. They should have just released that as the first game, and have this be a second game.
I never played or looked into this game until this veraion released, the tips definitely help.
You could jst hit the Map button and head for the coloured spots(white being phosphorous, light blue being lead - you can work out the rest without being level 132)
@@gamingaccount6904 not sure what the player level has to do with anything, it’s just my tutorial and testing world. Thanks for stopping by
Im legacy player and this video helped a lot. Appreciate the info and hard work.
I’ve got nitrate from fertilizer bags around farms also. Hope it helps guys
Had a lot of fun on the legacy version last year for hours and hours, it was due to the splitscreen which combined with a survival game where you can build stuff and DIG, give it the potential to be the best of his genre.
Now they took it off, still a great game and sure there is online. But for me it is a completely different game in terms of experience, even with the old version being older than my grandma with trash graphics and lack of new content 🤣
It's overwhelming trying to understand how everything new works specially the whole skills and crafting.
Another tip! No matter how fun it is-Make sure you exit when you feel yourself drifting off, rest mode will only have you disappointed when your days and loot disappear… I learned the hard way 😅
@@atlgamo haha sounds like a good tip lol
Thank you for the video I’m so excited my new Xbox will be here tomorrow and can’t wait to play this game.
I last played in 2017 during alpha like 14 or 15.. everything that had changed is wild
This is great. A early game horde base video would a good topic to cover.❤
My go to right now is to find a department store and place wood spikes all around it then to go on loot runs. (Clear out all the shelves to place what you want and build a 2nd floor easy) im a noob btw so im sure there are MUCH better ways to build
Bought the game yesterday, never played before. So far, having a good time in Co-op zombie rust
@@d3sc3n7 awesome definitely a lot of brand new players
Thank you! I didn't know how to pick up my work stations lol or how to go to advance on with building block. Doing my first horde today with friends nd don't have a base yet 😅
@@DarkContinent32 good luck on the horde! Let us know how it went!
this game deserves the updates it makes me so happy
Thank you for the tips, been having a blast.
@@josephschulz9629 you’re very welcome!!
Here’s a tip I need: how the heck do you fight the new dire wolves? Literally every single time I’ve had one spawn in in 1.0, it’s killed me.
I can 1v100 zombies on foot during horde night, but that thing spawns in, and takes two clips from my gun to the face, and eats me, only to die when I do from the weird game mechanics.
Short of building a horde base, how do you fight those things?
a tip for console player if you kill a zombie and they drop a bag you have less then like 20 seconds to grab it or it will disappears what a shitty thing the dev made foe us
I am absolutely frothing over the new console version ❤❤❤ one thousand times better than the origy and so much more to learn and do. This was a massive win for 7days community ❤❤
Just got here 1st time viewer and well this is Minecraft on steroids
Just FYI, you can ride your bike without using any stamina if you're not in turbo mode. It's R1 on PS5.
Great tip!!
You can also get coal, steal, rock, diamonds and silver and gold while mining the mountains.
Noob here, thank you I really needed this help.
@@battlerapencyclopedia2275 you’re welcome!!
I did it the old school away with a wrench without thinking about it. Then I walked over to my water collection and held down the button and it had a take option. 😅
Ive had this game for a long time. I 100% welcome the changes. I just need to relearn a good chunk of the game😅 but this is what we do (as gamers). Nice video 👍
Thanks for the visit!
Super helpful, thanks my man
Im 10 hrs in, this helped so much. Thx
Super helpful as always, will defo make life easier for people, like me!
Happy to help!
Just wanted to point out that you got the loot bag quality slightly out of order. The strongest zombies (dire wolves and demos) drop the red bags. Blue is dropped by mid-strength zombies like cops and wights. Yellows are from the normal zombie types.
Yeah day and night cycles pretty common feature now
Food and water go to character then top left there is a stats icon, it will be more exact
Thanks I was just typing in the comments where are the glass jars? :) ... but you answered that one. Couple of questions.
1) I always seem to be getting infected at the moment ... but so far never find any honey from tree stumps, or able to afford antibiotics from the vendor. Is there a way to manage the infection?
2) Dew traps - do they attract Zombies and need protecting? I set up a base in old house. Knocked out windows, secured doors etc and took over the attic. First couple of nights no issues. Then set up a dew trap outside in the front garden, that night got raided by a load of Zombies with another mini horde outside. My fault, I didn't take out steps and make it difficult, so once they bashed down the doors they were in. But it wasn't until I installed the dew trap that I seemed to attract them.
@@Fallenlords1969 you can find honey, herbal antibiotics or antibiotics to treat the infection from anywhere but if you cannot find nothing it maybe you have incredibly bad luck, it happens to everyone trust me.
Dew collectors generate "heat" so that may make more hordes come to your base so you should build traps around it to keep it safer as with the removal of jars it is your biggest priority or should be
To answer your questions quickly:
1. Infections are hard to treat. Honey only has ~25% chance to be collected from stumps.
2. Dew collectors and other crafting tables in use attract screamer zombies that spawn hordes to attack you.
Longer answers with detail:
1. The best way to manage infections is just to not get hit. Getting hit has a chance for a critical injury such as sprains or broken legs, infections, abrasions, etc. While most armor has some degree at critical injury protection, not getting hit will guarantee no infection. To treat an infection, honey and antibiotics are the only option. As you have already said, antibiotics are expensive, and honey unfortunately only has a chance of about 25% or even less when harvesting it from stumps.
2. Any object that produces items, makes noise, or creates light generates "heat." Higher heat levels mean the chances of screamers spawning. Screamers go to the source of the noise, and if they find you (even without seeing you, like they heard you), they will scream and attack you with a horde of zombies. Within the spawned horde, there is a chance for another screamer to spawn and potentially create a loop of horde spawns. Unfortunately, generating heat is easy. Crafting tables like forges, workstations, cementn mixers, dew collectors, etc will generate heat whenever they are working and make something. Light sources like torches generate heat. Shooting your guns generate heat, even with a silencer (though it will generate less heat if you use one). Thankfully, the heat goes down over time when nothing is active. My best suggestion is to keep your dew collectors elevated on secure platforms and to listen for screamers before they find you (as they make unique grunt sounds), then quickly take care of them before they scream and spawn a horde.
If you have anymore questions, feel free to ask. I also have a RUclipsr to suggest known as IZPrebuilt who does let's play of this game and taught me many things.
@@frozenburst6463 Thanks for the info. Got some honey in the end :). As for the dew collector, you hit it right on the nose. I had at least two screamers and everything just went mad after that. Felt like a mini horde night. And I wasn't prepared at all. Will move my dew collector :). Again, thanks for the info and the recommendation.
@@Fallenlords1969 looks like you got your questions answered. Thanks for the visit 😊
Good stuff, thanks for the tips!
Has anyone had any problems with the sounds? On day 4 now and my sound is all messed up. Choppy.
Love all your awesome info.
Such a great surprise for me. I loved legacy
Hay thanks for I struggled this whole weekend lol
The building gets me in the new console version. For whatever stupid ass reason all of the blocks place on an angle rather than straight on.
Hi dude, the nitrate powder tip is really wrong. There are pallets of fertilizer that will give you like 90 nitrate and they are everywhere in buildings. Same with clay and paper.
Bro I've waited so long for this xD dumped 31 hours in already 😂😂😂
I like to build a place next to my fort or what I had before the 1.0 version I had my plots inside & on the roof top of my Fort & I let it rain on the plots.
The shovels on Console look better than ours on PC. LOL
So helpful. Thanks.
Great tips! Does rotting flesh still attract zombies like in legacy?
Goated video man u earned a sub 💪
Thank you 🤘🤘🤘
Yellow is normal loot bag. Blue is stronger loot bag. Red is the highest level loot bag. Got that detail slightly off. Good video though.
Is anyone else addicted to this game ? Frig it’s all I think about at work
Video really helps thanks spartan 85 🤘 on another video you should show us how to get xp faster like doing jobs for traders or places to find the best loot early game 👍
I can do that!!
I have a question, I remember the more you crafted like an axe or hammer, whatever it was crafted tools in general the more you crafted them the higher the level would be. I'm on day five and have gone through plenty of axes, but it's still a level 1 every time I craft it. Do I need to level up a skill? Find a book? Is my game bugged? Or is that just not a feature anymore
