    "Carpentry no longer levels from deconstructing furniture" Oh boy! I love building and deconstructing a single wall.

    • @TeeIeh
      @TeeIeh 5 дней назад +66

      It's honestly such a bad change. If you know nothing about carpentry, and spend time disassembling a bed, you will absolutely gain knowledge on how pieces of wood are properly put together to form a piece of furniture. How does building the same wall outline 100 times improve carpentry? That is the head scratcher...you learn nothing new.

      On the one hand, crowbars are a staple tool/weapon in post apocalyptic media.
      On the other, I think this change was made to encourage… well, using weapons that aren’t crowbars/encourage players to choose purpose-built weapons versus improvised ones.
      As someone who’s more often than not used the same crowbar I found as a weapon until I die, I’m open to to this for now.

    Dude, some of these comments make me lose hope.
    People complaining about fishing just shows that they just want to AFK the game... you do realize that this gives us people who want to actually play our games something to do while we fish. Go play cookie clicker if you want to go AFK in a game.
    People complaining about having to take care of animals and acting like if they leave for a loot run, they'll die, are ridiculous. It would take several days for your animals to die for dehydration and starvation, if you are going to be gone for days at a time, don't own farm animals or get new ones if they die.
    If you are mad about the new farming, you do realize that this is how farming is in real life. "Oh I dont want my game to be a realistic survival simulator", you came to the wrong game. COD zombies, minecraft, dayZ etc are over yonder, try them.
    I understand giving valid criticisms, but some of you are just admitting that you don't like the concept of PZ and that frustrates me to no end. We, the PZ community, waited for months at the edge of our seats for B42, only for people to complain about some very good features that make the game better.

    • @h3ckNo
      @h3ckNo 4 дня назад

      It conflicts with the other game systems they have in place. For example, fishing. People fish in this game not for the minigame but to get a reliable source of food. There are far better fishing systems in other games, even entire fishing simulators.
      If you want a minigame, that's fine but there should be ways to get food from nature without *human player* grinding. Let us spend various other *ingame* resources on food acquisition instead of having to grind your minigame, which is not even that great or engaging from what I see.
      Maybe an option to skip time in exchange for lower fishing yield or using nets or even getting NPCs to fish for us. Games should never be about arbitrary "realism" first, they should be FUN first, realistic second, or tenth.

    • @miamesa8652
      @miamesa8652 4 дня назад +6

      "If you're going on looting runs for several days ron't own farm animals or get new ones"
      Getting new farm animals sounds like an absolute nightmare.
      And, it's all cool to tell people not to own farm animals but here's the thing, they nerfed every other way to get food.
      -Fishing requires a lot more resources since spearfishing is gone (and many people hate these kinda minigames btw)
      -Farming can only work during certain seasons, it was mediocre before, it's worse now.
      -Hunting apparently requires ammo, which as far as I'm aware are jot renewable, and players like shooting zombies too, any ammo you use on hunting is ammo you won't use to fight.
      -Trapping is still a thing but with carpentry being harder to level up, and farming being seasonal, it'll be less accessible.
      Plus, you're saying "The PZ community" as if the PZ community only had players that want to play the survival aspect of the game. But that's far from the truth, there's a lot of players that love the fighting and looting in PZ, it's an integral part of the game, and the new systems make it much harder to actually spend time doing these things, if that's what people enjoyed then they're out of luck, build 42 forces the players to engage in things they might not enjoy.
      In a perfect universe the new features would have been implemented in a way that didn't bother other playstyles, and while I see why it is the way that it is, I can understand the complaints.
      And personally I do have one complaint when it comes to fishing, despite really enjoying the update. Removing spear fishing is an extremely odd choice.
      They could have nerfed it majorly, because it was way too powerfull, but removing it feels weird.
      In survival situations, rivers spearfishing is one of the most useful skills to have. It's not only realistic, it's in general much more likely than using actual fishing poles.
      Removing one of the primary survival techniques for food gathering, in an update entirely centered around the survival aspect just feels odd.
      The only valid-ish reason I could see is that it doesn't work with the fishing minigame but... I mean... Just make another minigame for it, something based on timing maybe.

    • @SirCanuckelhead

      You don't HAVE to update, if you just want to play the game and not worry about bugs you're better off staying on the current version.
      But you can backup the save. It's also advised that you do for unstable branches, they used to be called IWBUMS (I will back up my saves).
      You can copy your save file from C:/Users/'username'/Zomboid/Saves, copy/cut it somewhere OUTSIDE the game folder where you won't lose it and then update the game. If you want to switch back to your old save, you downgrade back to current version and then put your save file back in C:/Users/'username'/Zomboid/Saves.
      But it's your choice, the current version is meant for testing and you will encounter bugs which you're supposed to report.
      It won't update itself, you have to go to the game's properties in your Steam library, select Betas and then choose the 'Unstable' in the beta participation.

    So if crowbars are no longer considered weapons, even if pre-42, they were considered "One of the best melee weapons" multiple times on the Wiki, what is considered "A weapon?" A hammer isn't a weapon. You use it to drive things. A Stick isn't a weapon. It's just a branch off a tree. A fire axe or hatchet isn't considered a weapon. You use it to bash through wood to save lives or cut down trees. They should consider if they're going this route adding tags to things that are considered "Weapons" that give maint exp. Because I've been playing for 3 in game weeks before I found out the crowbar on my back is no longer considered "A weapon" even though I have already bashed many zombie skulls in with it.

    • @Drunkonlife
      @Drunkonlife  День назад

      I'm not sure how they are calling things weapons overall. But from what I gather a "branch" isn't considered a weapon for maintenance purposes without it being crafted into something else. I understand the logic here. If it isn't a "weapon", it doesn't have to be "maintained". That said, I think the crowbar was targeted because of the maintenance meta circulating in build 41.
      As a side note, I think you get xp from fighting with "non weapons". I know currently a stone is considered a short blunt and gets short blunt xp. But there is no reason to "maintain" the stone, if that makes sense

    • @jzburda
      @jzburda День назад +1

      @Drunkonlife I thought the whole point of maintenance exp is that you 1. Watch how things slowly break over time with use so 2. You know how to reinforce things later on without your intervention. So, while certain weapons can't be 'maintained,' they can still be useful to learn how they break and how they can be reinforced, or used more "properly" to prevent them from breaking as fast
      While I "get" that crowbars specifically don't need to be maintained like wood weapons, I find it extremely odd that now with these changes, I have to specifically kill a ton of zombies - with a stick with nails in it - to be able to craft a stone hammer

  • @XenHen
    @XenHen 2 дня назад +1

    Maybe deconstructing an item should only yield xp if you have a carpentry level lower than the level necessary to build it. I dunno what the current levels are, but say a bed requires level 2 carpentry, you can only gain carpentry xp from deconstructing beds at carpentry levels 0 and 1. Once you hit level 2 or higher, you need to set your sights on bigger and better things. Likewise, I feel like building a wall over and over would stop giving you new knowledge after a while. Maybe building an item only grants you xp if your carpentry level is below twice the level constructing said item takes (like for a bed, you gain xp through levels 0 to 3 but stop getting xp from building beds after that)

    • @Drunkonlife
      @Drunkonlife  День назад

      They are kind of doing that with the tv shows/vcr tapes. You can only accumulate up to level 3 in any skill by watching a show and then it stops. You can adjust these setting back to build 41 status in the custom sandbox though.
      I think that the devs kind of knew this was going to be a sticking point for a percentage of the gaming base and wanted to give them the option (kind of like multihit that changed in the base game from 40 to 41).

    it seems to me that 50% of the new features still don't work, especially the forge-related things. Stone axe is not broken by cutting down 1,000 trees. I think they still have a lot of work to do, but maybe I'm wrong!

    • @Drunkonlife
      @Drunkonlife  3 дня назад

      50% may be an exaggeration. That said, there are a lot of bugs, most which aren't game ending and will be resolved over time.
      I think it's important to point out that this is the unstable branch and is designed to give us a way to play with new features while they are being developed.

    Interesting. Removing spear fishing seems unnecessary. However I get it. I might of made it more consuming of time and thirst/hunger. Just better methods.
    Any real complaints about changes. I would proceed to tell people to try it in real life. Then come back.
    Machines. You can do a lot with a common wrech. Yet you better have a socket set for serious work. A "Crescent Wrench" you can get away with a ton of work at the top of a vehicle just not any tight spaces. Some jobs take a while. If you wanted to make it hell. Make it where some car work has a progression bar that thakes a good deal of time that you be forced to start and stop. You should be able to take anything apart. However putting it back together is the problem.

    • @Drunkonlife

      I imagine the real problem with adding spear fishing to the fishing options is that there is likely not a viable "mini-game" component to it and if were added as an option, most would simply skip regular fishing altogether and opt for spear fishing, kind of like what most did in build 41

    Meh 😕 ... Soulflincher's mod list has the original intended blacksmith system.
    He also made every plant farmable and added more of them + longer growth time in sanbox is nicer and better then b42, less tedious.
    In general I have stable (no errors) mods to compensate for 80% of the features without making the game tedious and forced.
    I also don't like the direction they're forcing you to play like Rick Grimes 10years later in Alexandria with primitive crafting.
    In my world when power fails I push through with my smithing, electrical and metalworking skills to build solar panels and batteries which is really hard but makes mid-end game fun, also no Z respawns for additional goals.
    In all honesty I'm not going to update the game just for chickens and cows.

      As soon as the Whatz next community post dropped i shat myself and immediately emptied my entire modlist to embrace a fresh new start with vanilla zomboid, to make me truly feel like day one of playing again.
      After like 600+ hr you have seen most of what vanilla build 41 has to offer and nothing really surprises or challenges me annymore. I played hardcore vanilla CDDA ironman for the most off my gametime and i have the survival strategy’s boiled down to a science. The game lacks real endgame progression which is what causes most of my runs to bog down in to after 1 month mark where you have cleared out an entire town, have a fully stocked base with food and water to last you for months ingame. You have everything and have nothing really to work towards besides killing zombies, building cool bases to show of or leveling the your useless skills. This update sees to improve upon this. Wich i enjoy greatly

      @ the beauty of PC gaming! I guess I should rephrase, love the new content but just some of xp changes and such I’m not too fond of.
