Zed Zone - Post Apocalyptic Open World Survival RPG 

Totally agree this guy is awesome he helped me finding multiple hidden gems which gave me countless hours of fun

I come back every day. I've discovered so many great games through this channel

This is one of my favorite channels for that reason

A thousand times yes. I used to despise indies before him and retromation. I always thought indies were half ass unfinished or lame 1-2 hour plays. I played SO MUCH inscription, replikator, and so many others all because of those 2

Splat is where I find most of the games I get.

Looks like another "let's make CDDA but with good graphic", I don't think any of those projects managed to get out of alpha, since it's basically small teams trying to rewrite AAA amount of game. I would caution against enthusiasm. Never mind, even the creator kinda refers to it as "CDDA mixed with Project Zomboid". Looks very interesting but lacks that community-driven obscenely massive amount of content.

I've spent some time with the game and it is incredibly fun in it's current state. I am very excited to see what's to come.

you can do better? lets see bro @@MrZjadacz

@@hornachos I did, I made over twenty PRs to CDDA. There is only one king. Also, I did buy this one sometime when this video got released. Might totally be worth playing in a year or two.

Looks a lot like realtime Cataclysm Dark Days Ahead too.

Exactly. That was my first thought.

Took the words right out of my mouth. I was just about to comment the same thing too lol

Looks like ZERO Sievert with more pixels.

Looks like a cheap copy of Project Zomboid. Pretty uncool.

Art style kind of reminds me of that The Last Stand flash game where you travel through a city to get to a ship.

@@hansknickerbocker9202 yeah, the last stand flash was great fun. their new game the last stand: aftermath is nice as well but it has very different gameplay. Haven't gotten around to try the remastered version of the flash game.

@@hansknickerbocker9202 that was my childhood, that together with the ww1 trench flashgame was great fun. Thanks for the memory reboot.

this thing needs to get multiplayer ASAP im addicted to it i kinda quit call of duty for it haha

Not to mention the updat video down the line that will remind a lot of people who like it, but want to wait for more development.

Early access seems to be happening around the end of March so I'm looking forward to trying it out. Hopefully they fix the performance issues before launch

What is cdda?

@@cryc0s Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead. It has been a community developed game that has been (and still is) offered for free for many years. It was just released on Steam, but that is only for a little convenience and a wider audience.

@Fedor Silva CDDA is actually way harder I find (and has more options of gameplay)

@Fedor Silva I think your best bet for that sorta game is Zomboid itself with some mods for QOL. Some skills can be changed up from mods like the Journal mod that makes it to where you can save all your skill points even if you die. Makes it a bit easier. C:DDA punishes you more with less information unless you sorta deep dive some guides or forums. But, I personally think C:DDA rewards better than any sandbox zombie game out there. They really make you feel like a badass late game.

Yeah, it's basically just Cataclysm haha

I'm so hungry that i read "I love the cook". I was like: wtf? the cook system?

Ooh baby what an endorsement

Perfect for me

this feels like someone heard zomboid was a real time cataclysm and was disappointed so they decided to do it themselves.

@@gleidhold in some ways it’s better. Both are great and pretty much all I’m playing for now Case in point. Did a run last night and removed bad parts from a vehicle and found the good parts from a vehicle surrounded by mutants, carried the parts back and forth for a few minutes while collecting really cool loot , now I’m driving. ❤️🚗

aye i cant lie it still looks cool

Dev is used to anything being silenceable due to living in a totalitarian surveillance state.

You heard him say he has permission though?

I would rather it headed towards CBN, so it stays a game instead of turning into a monotonous misery simulator.

@@JBloodthorn What is CBN?

@@RyanDanielG Cataclysm: Bright Nights, it's a fork from DDA that focuses more on gameplay and being fun.

@@JBloodthornAhhh no shit! I'll have to try it out. thanks

I recommend the Bright Nites mode for CDDA. It prioritizes QoL/Fun over Realism/Simulation. It basically dumps a lot of bloated complexity (freezing, dissections, pockets, fatigue, etc) and adds back in a lot of fun stuff that got removed (late game weapons and bionics). It also adds quests and lore, with the goal of giving the player the option to "win" against the cataclysm similar to Fallout: New Vegas (Quests and NPCs are WIP as usual). Cuz lets be honest here. If Dwarf Fortress veterans are claiming CDDA has gotten more complex than DF - by ANY metric - it might be time to reign back the runaway train open source development bloat. Note: Despite the differences in opinion and philosophy between "mainline" CDDA (which is itself a fork of DDA) and BN, there's still cross contribution of QoL and gameplay features across both versions. BN is just a bit slower and more selective about the rate and types of PRs.

@@r3dp9 while the direction of dda has just gone to shit, i cannot abide the removal of pockets. pockets are one of the best features they've added in a long while.
