that + its even better than dayz

the complete desensitization of PVP is part of what makes it better than dayz

there is next to no reason to fight people in zomboid, especially since players do absurd damage to each other, but generally never enough to one-shot

so any fight is going to end with both participants gravely wounded and spending weeks in-game recovering

also the fact that using guns are essentially ringing a massive dinnerbell

like yeah you might kill a dude but at what cost

I've been playing a bit of solo and after getting over the initial learning curves it's really addicting and weirdly absorbing
honestly i was kinna upset with the permadeath but once i figured out how zombies work and whatnot your biggest issues are way more significant than just the zombies

brilliant experience

once you get the zombies, they become part of the background
oh, there's a zombie in the house, BASH
zombie in the middle of the street, BASH
zombie's knocking on my front door, let me just open it and BASH

then when 30 of them have got you locked in the bathroom, you remember that they're the antagonist

Permadeath adds so much weight to dealing with 1 fucking zombie, that's why I love it

oh, there's a zombie in the house, BASH
zombie in the middle of the street, BASH
zombie's knocking on my front door, let me just open it and BASH

then when 30 of them have got you locked indoors, you remember that they're the antagonist
Yeah you forget about them until you take a risk of some kind

One time I was fleeing a horde through the woods and it went quiet, so I was like alright It's clear then I walked for a bit, heard the jumpscare sound and got bit by a zombie that was just chilling inside a tree

oh fucking sorry mate, me and aperson saw you walking around in muldraugh

options > audio for voice control

at the moment VOIP seems bound to ALT which is also the sprint key which is probably a byproduct of sprint being part of B41 and multiplayer being reintroduced, I recommend re-binding it

If anyone needs food, water or meds in riverside just come to my house when im on and I'll give it ya. ( anything else like materials will have to be traded for, unless you are desperate for it e.g making a safe place to live I will help for free )
