I hate myself for not playing Project Zomboid sooner 

i never even noticed until after i posted this haha, the more you know i guess

No way to know if he was infected or not. Infection rates: Scratch - 7% Laceration - 25% Bite - 100% Yes, you could have survived, but who knows. That many injuries means that many more chances.

@@kel_ski Looking forward to your playthroughs with friends! Those are always fun!

​@@MyLiverismyEnemy He didn't turn after dying, i think that happens regardless of the source of infection

@@MyLiverismyEnemy The moodle that popped up after he died was Dead, not Zombified. That’s how you can tell.

i honestly don’t mind the controls at all, although the UI is definitely a little tricky

Also, for me, the isometric part is like a barrier for interest. But since I’ve started it’s still very tense and immersive and I don’t think it hinders it at all

The way the game is most gamers are put off by how it doesn't fit into what they are used to. The learning curve is deep and most like just hopping in like they know it. NOPE... you're a noob like I was. You're going to find out that this game makes you face some more realistic things versus game logic. Every bullet is accounted for. You don't have every magazine full and when you shot 10 out of 20 you don't magically keep the other ten left. It's still in the last mag you just put away. Thankfully the issue going to make your character just discard it. No you keep the mag with just some bullets. You get preoccupied you fire all your ammo but don't know which mags have what left. Soon you hear the clicking and are forced to think am I completely out or is the gun jammed. Nope we are just FPS ignorant. You have 3 mags with ten left and 2 with only 3 and one completely empty. So you think okay. Load up the mags... EVERY SINGLE bullet must be hand loaded.... Yep depth of the game makes you realize man I once thought I could easily handle some zombie apocalypse. Guess i should of remember to remove the glass first. Each time you play you think "man that was stupid of me to think, this is a game." Naw it makes you realize that it's a bit more than that. You start thinking "I need to think like this as if it was me out there. Hiw would I actually be and how can I actually survive.

Yeah dude the second thing I did was change the controls. The first thing I did was die! LUL!

@@bobjohnson1096 yeah the q is death. The DEV knew 100% what they did. If you don't play the tutorial you will die too fast. It's like " oh wow great a hotbar for me attached equal. Okay hand axe at 2 and bat at 1. I got this now.... (first few zombies kills..)... oh shoot 3 of them I better use the bat for better distance... [ Q is pressed ] OVER HERE!!!!... "wait what.... no not over here." The DEVS "hey guys how can we make a gamer feel really stupid and make them learn every is new and you better play the tutorial." one of the people speaks up "hey let's make Q the yell button so when they panic to get their main weapon out they might hit it. The way to learn this is in the tutorial or checking the key bindings.... LMAO which nearly no one does until they screw up the first time.... because that how you died. By thinking you know enough to be great already from other games... YET WE AREN'T like other games."

worst/best timing 😭

14 consecutive injuries will do that. I’m honestly amazed he was able to get that damaged without dying first

7:39 Can someone tell where this is from

"How we lookin'?" *Explodes*

​@@grayfox9869🤨

yes!! good comparison

@@kel_ski I think TWD directly inspired the devs to make the game. I remember seeing that somewhere but I don't remember where.

Those early seasons are my comfort show.

@@Ives1776 I stopped watching after season 7 and every time I want to comeback to the show to finish it I can't. Those later seasons lack the atmosphere of the first 3. Same with Prison Break. The first 2 seasons are great, but after that it goes from great to really bad.

You know how there was this Flash game called "Dead road" or something like that, I don't know, project zomboid gives me it's vibes.. Just hopelessness.

thank you so much 🤝 it was a great time!

Watching people enjoy any new game is awesome. I just put my girl on papers, please and it's so nice watching her play.

this is an AMAZING idea

A little late but Multiplayer roleplaying servers? Also devs want to put in npcs in build 43 as far as I know. So that's possible as well. Also some maps do have written text in them

They would lose context outside the world they’re generated in.

Imagine your old notes that you write in older runs appear in newer ones, you can also find old characters as zombies mid playthrough

holy crap i didn’t even realize. THATS why. didn’t turn into a zombie lmao they knew Johnny’s flesh was too sacred to taste

Damn bro, a month? Good fuckin job

that sounds awesome, i need to try that

thank you for the tip!

The comedic timing was amazing

reminds me of when my friend got bit in his neck and he checked his status and said "terminal damage?" and his head just fucking exploded.

bro had several bites and lacerations

it was meant to be... you must now spend 400 hours minimum playing

@@kel_ski I'm gonna try and hit 600

Watch others play! I have learned so much! Any profession other than Engineer is trash. Tweak the abilities until you find your playstyle.

definitely a high barrier to entry, but once you’re in, you’re IN lol

Any tips for ‘figuring it out?’ I want to love this game so badly but every one of my play throughs looks like the first play throughs from this video

​@@Profeshinalbest tip I have is to always be careful and plan any looting trips you want to take. And remember you are not a zombie killing machine in this game. Also always look around you because zombies can easily sneak up on you in your blindspots

thank you so much! honestly its crazy im already at that number haha

37.5 thousand is a big number idk if saying "only" does that justice

totally worth it

I bought it 2 weeks ago and have 214 hours

@@allison6883 same boat, same boat. i'm losing my tiny mind over here

hardcore/realistic games will always have a place in my heart

As someone who has 6000+ hours in this game, I am happy to see new players having fun! :P

@@bobjohnson1096 6k hours god damn u got no life

@@bobjohnson1096 :P we should all play together sometimes~!

multiplayer is such a blast, it makes me want to host a community server!

@@kel_ski That'll be lovely for the community one day!

correct!

i’m glad i could inspire! thank you for the nice words 🤝🤝

much more on the way 🤝 thank you for watching everything!

thank you Chad Hoovy 👑

bouta remake my setup in this game

as much as i enjoy the music, sound is pretty important in this game for sure

thank you homie 🤝🤝

glad you enjoyed man 🤝 yeah i got some good pals!

You all need to do a 100 day Shenigans on YT. That'll be fun to watch

hell yeah dude, i appreciate the you coming back to watch another video 🤝🤝

BIG agree

NEW CITIES WTF? i’ll definitely check it out!

late reply but glad you enjoyed it :)

it slaps so hard, honestly underrated

Same all my friends dipped out after a week

Sadly people are playing gay ass first person shooters and other garbage. :(

You can look for friends with zombie-related interests like Walking Dead fans as a sign that they may like this game. Lots of people including me play Zomboid for the roleplay.

​@@imlivingunderyourbed7845 as a die hard the walking dead fan I can confirm we project zomboid closes we can ever get to a walking dead survival game and RP on it is awesome

yeah that press “Q” troll was diabolical 😭 i really thought i’d be able to beat it

@@kel_ski if you’re looking for a silver lining, you can now tell it to all your clueless friends! And subsequently lose them all, but you win some and lose some

you know i had a really big strategy game phase a few years ago, i wouldn’t mind giving it a look 👀

this performance has the best form of entertainment… b e t r a y a l

thank you for taking the time to watch 🤝🤝 i’ve heard the game has made leaps and bounds since then, im glad the devs never gave up on it!

@@kel_ski No problem. You touched briefly on mods from the Workshop. There are a lot to say the least, but if you want a modded playthrough, whilst still maintianing a vanilla experience you can't go wrong with these; 1. Filibuster Rhymes' Used Cars! Adds a lot of vehicles to the game, gives you options to use lore friendly names of vehicles or the real life equivalent. It is also a requirement for a few other mods that add different vehicles. It also has no dependencies required. 2. Pillow's Random Spawns Does exactly what you think it does. It also comes with options to spawn in a location by profession (if you're a police officer you spawn in a police station or prison etc.,). Good for role play and not over powered. 3. Brita's Weapon Pack Adds so many guns and together with the dependencies you can actually turn off or change the probabilities of finding each and every gun it adds. It is really good to have if you want to learn how to use weapons in the vanilla game. It does change the mechanics of weapons, so I can't really say it still gives you a vanilla playstyle, but it is a lot of fun. Also adds tons of attachments. Dependancies; "Arsenal(26) GunFighter Mod" "Mod Options (Build 41)" with this last one, it also gives you a lot of options to turn certain things found in other mods either on or off and many other things as well. All of these are multiplayer ready and due to how long they've been around, their reasonably well balanced for both single and multiplayer. I was going to leave links, but no one should ever click a link in a RU-vid comment lol. Good luck and have fun.

Nice

thank you so much!

sounds good my man 🫡 i even heard there’s a dismemberment mod! pretty insane stuff

*kelski will remember that*

@@kel_ski he ain't remembering much after what I did

I don't regret feeding you bleach rat burger

love hate relationship fr fr

Same then I dumped like 4k hours into it because I have brain damage, was worth it.

i’ve heard this game plays surprisingly well on the deck!

i’ll definitely love to play more :) maybe even get into that one big city area

thank you man 🤝 i appreciate it!!

thank you so much 🤝 good choice in going to play

glad you find them entertaining my man 🤝
