It's dead these days, but holy shit, whoever was in control of the core gameplay was throwing darts at the board every season with regards to how they were going to fuck the game up.

Ashlands is like a masterclass in how not to increase difficulty, what tedious bullshit. Was already a slog getting through mistlands

>>729152812
They finally started doing non retarded shit and it only took their community ganging up on them to do it. Lots of time wasted though, who the fuck knows when the game will get bandits and story mode.
It's still a shame they reworked the XP system for books instead of kino leveling by doing.

I bought this game during this Christmas sale. Is it worth it playing it totally vanilla or mods are essential for a fun experience? Im trying to install mods, and the game crashes all the time. I have figured out what mods are causing the game to crash, but the now SP game kicks me out to the main menu every time I headstomp multiple zombies. Its there a solid mod pack that works?
Im running the latest beta update btw. Yeah, this game should fucking see an actual release. Modders cant keep up with the rolling releases

>>729152908
The most interesting thing about this game is obviously the building system and they are doing fuck all with it.

>>729153125
Just play vanilla if you've never touched the game

The main branch of Dungeon Crawl: Stone Soup keeps getting less fun due to devs simultaneously catering both to the ultra sweats obsessed with optimized playthroughs and to the mega casuals who just want to brainlessly hack and slash. As a result they have been gradually just deleting content in between the ultra sweaty and mega casual.
Ah well, it is an open source game so at least the old versions and forks are still there.

I tried playing this today, i heard lot of shit but i figured there must be something good about it if so many people play it
The tutorial guy was fucking annoying saying how i was about to die every 5 seconds but i figured it's just setting the mood, got to the game proper and played for 10 minutes and noticed a couple of things
No one has fucking bedsheets so you can't cover windows like the tutorial tells you to (and i looked online and you need nails and a hammer to pit the sheet over the window anyway), all the car are somehow perfectly out of gas, people have sealed bottle and tinned food but no way to open them, (you can't use a knife because fuck you) and everyone fridge is almost empty
the game is so clearly hostile to the player (if the "this is how you died" intro didn't clue you in) to the point it ignores the "realsim" it prides itself off and only uses it to make things harder for you
Completely drained my will to play since it's clear there will be more bullshit forward, the same reason i never played 7dtd after i found out that they removed the ability to gather water from rivers and removed empty jar all together, thank god i pirated it

TLDR:the game cleary hates the player and will ignore realism to fuck him over, am i correct? can it be fixed with mods or am i better off figuring out how to play cataclysm bn?
>>729152915
did they remove the retarded biome smoothie, re added empty jar?

>>729155673
The game is 'realistic' in every way that might harm the player, but is comically gamey and fantastical nonsense whenever realism would help the player.
>Oy vey, rainwater is as toxic as bleach goy! Didn't you know that!?

>>729154657
just amazing to me that the guys making a zombie game suddenly thought it'd be a great idea to pivot to animal farm

what the actual fuck were these retards thinking

you're making a fucking zombie game you idiots, you spent a whole fucking year fucking around with crafting and animals when the game actually needs directed progression past the first week and NPC antagonists to spice up the mid-late game

If I want steel I'll take apart a car instead of mining and purifying iron from scratch
If I want food I'll go raid a pantry and steal all the canned food

In what fucking world was being able to craft a backpack from scratch worth a year-long no multiplayer priority in a game where one in twenty zombies wears a free backpack

what the actual fuck are these retards doing!???

I guess it's bias coming from their community. I suppose the minority with huge voice are the experienced players with a lot of hours played and those tend to be autists who like to turn this game into stardew valley.
So 90% of players play for a week or two, get bored and then move on, but 10% will be fucking around with pottery (lul) and those will be the majority on steam forum and reddit.

I wish it was that simple but it isn't. The developers don't listen to any parts of the community at all.
Basically for the last four years the developers have been binging modded minecraft (I wish I was making this up) and not actually working on the game. By playing turbo-modded minecraft they got the idea of shoving that irrelevant crap into Zomboid and so that is why B42 makes no sense compared to earlier build focuses.

Lol. Honestly kinda based.

>>729155673(me)
>>729155673
i did try it but the game is clearly nowhere near finished, some items still have place holder models, and you can atleast theorically fix project zomboid with mod but vein dosen't have workshop support yet
hopefully it makes gets developed at a reasonable rate

>rainwater is tainted
incredible, did they ever gave an explanation for this? or did they one day just say, "getting water is too easy"
>>729156536
did they genuinely admit that or did some dev off hand mentioned playing modded minecraft and everyone started making shit up

>>729156747
>incredible, did they ever gave an explanation for this? or did they one day just say, "getting water is too easy"
No explanation is given aside from 'the government says it will kill you, and the government knows best' despite entire communities IRL living off of rainwater.
>did they genuinely admit that or did some dev off hand mentioned playing modded minecraft and everyone started making shit up
Autists did what they did best and caught the devs constantly in minecraft instead of programming. Devs themselves also talked about it.

Why even work on the game when everyone bought it for $0.001 a decade ago and been shitting on it nonstop with their 1000+ hours playtime?

>>729156913
>Why even uphold your promises lmao when you can scam and fraud?

>>729156913
Because you want to play the game you're working on
if you are doing it for some kind of accolades or to have people sucking you off you have your priorities fucked up and are a messed in the head narcissist with a chip on your shoulder towards the very people who actually supported you

the only thing trying to be a poor widdle victim earns you is scorn and derision, especially when your pity party is attacking your own customers for the sake of some feel good platitudes from sychophants

lead dev for this game is just a coddled manchild who needs to grow the fuck up

>>729156913
New research suggests that 99% of people who got scammed didn't knew they were getting scammed.
