>>2787393yes

>>2787393Maybe after they fix the glaring AI sloppa mistakes.

>>2787393Not unless you have really low standards and like procedurally generated houses, no. B42 "stable" isn't even stable.
>>2787482>>2787575The interiors are no longer hand crafted?
>>2787672Unless you're willing to believe the claim that quadrillions of homes having windows on interior walls, furniture blocking doorways, and high class houses missing fridges is "hand crafted".
>>2787447I hate to admit it... but they didn't just win... they fucking thrived.
>>2787682Most of these issues are located in Rosewood & Fallas which are likely last minute cities that they didn't get the chance to finish for Stable. Even if procgen has been used, you can not tell and it's been used tastefully. A few mistakes to patch up is not the end of the world.
>>2787695Even if it was last minute there is no world in which you CONSISTENTLY put interior windows that phase you into the backgrooms.These are not human errors. They used some form of generation. And that's fine. It's okay. lmao. It's totally cool. HAHAHAHA
>>2787700Basements spawn randomly along the side of a house and I would assume they are supposed to delete a window and that is the case that has been discovered.
>>2787708It's not only to basements. Hell the interior windows even appear above first floors.
>>2787695Oh wow! The 2 Towns that have the most glaringly obvious signs of procgen have procgen errors... wow color me surprised nigger. The shills have grown in faggotry recently. It's procgen nigger and if it isn't, it's tasteless, careless work.
>>2787734Nigger, they are not procgenned. You faggots are so retarded.
>>2787756>They are not procgenned! The 7/11 attached to the police station was intentional and based on realistic kentucky architecture!!!Even streamers are talking about this dawg. It's over. In a few days even nurgle's apostle Asmongold himself will be talking about this.

Ohhh nooooo~ did we use AI generated slop again? Uh oh~ that was an accident :( we didn't mean to! Woopsy doopsie teehee~
bases? finally got my "long term" save going and am hunkering down in the rusty rifle bar in muldraugh
>>2788612There's basically no downside to just making a shanty in the woods for rain protection, that's all you need in a base.So most of the time I just put a bunch of crates down in the woods and that's my base.
nice layering
>Jogging near stairs has a high chance of your character just jumping over the edge and falling to their deathWhy don't they just disable stair-hopping for jogging, but enable it for sprinting?For fucks sake devs can we get some nuance between 'everything is fine' and 'run ender'?

>>2788888>desperately need a sledgeFor what purpose? I rarely if ever need a sledgehammer.
>>2788894To hopefully clean up some new tiles that can't be picked up or disassembled...

>>2788612>Grungy hairstyleI'll never get why studios don't put more actually decent hair options, there are so few options in general, and most of them are memes like who outside of jewtubers is going to play with a mohawk or an afro? Grungy parted/long are basically the only good hairstyles in the base game.

>Cigarettes are basically worthless for normal players but super OP for smoker trait charactersOkay, so just make them more useful for non-smokers, and a bit less useful for smoker trait characters?>Keeps them useless for non-smokers but also nerfs smoker to uselessnessGreat so now we have an entire category of items that are worthless.
>>2789049Why would smoking be useful for non smokers?
>>2789072Nicotine and the practice of smoking doesn't magically have no effects just because you aren't a chainsmoking retard.
>>2789073>doesn't answer the questionokay druggy. Rather than your useless drug that only marginally helps with focus and dieting for people who have no self disciple, why don't we talk about drugs with actually notable beneficial aspects like cocaine which can turn you into a pain immune indefatigable monster.
>>2789077Why are you having a bitchfit over tobacco of all things?I don't even smoke IRL, I just want the items to not be useless ingame.
>>2789080>why is shooting your dick off basically worthless for normal players but super OP for MtF trannies?gee I wonder
>>2789082>He's going all outLmao
>>2789085Next time suggest something realistic, like less stamina, black lung after smoking for several months(bugged to happen after two weeks), coughing fits when over exerted, and a stench that zombies can track from a dozen feet away
>>2789099Did you have a family member die from lung cancer or something?
>>2789106Why do zombies benefit from eating rotten human flesh? Non-zombies should too since otherwise it's an entire category of items that are worthless.
>>2789113Well for starters there's no human flesh items ingame. But players absolutely should be able to butcher and eat other humans. If human flesh had no calorie value, I'd be saying that's stupid too.I am still wondering why cigarettes of all things are pissing you off so much.Your great grandfather smoked, his father smoked, and his father smoked too. Not saying you have to do it, but there's reasons why people do, lmao.
>>2789080You are a homosexual nigger, let's be clear on that nigger. If you do not smoke in this game, you are a homosexual.
>>2789134Are you here to just shit up the thread like usual?
game fixed?
>>2789142No, they actually added even more issues than before.
I thought we were free from alschizo melties...
>>2789148Every thread is always the same.Some niggers saying issues with the game, then some retard shows up and starts randomly accusing people of being trannies or homos for some reason.
>>2789151>some retard shows up and starts randomly accusing people of being trannies or homos for some reason.Something a tranny homosexual would say.
>>2789154You're right, people are trannies and gay because they're saying the game's issues!

>>2788978maybe kentucky only has the really thick insulated kind of coveralls and not the thin mechanic stylefor some reasoneven though you still could wear stuff ontop of the insulated kind
>>2789180I know WHY they disabled it, because they dont want people padding their coveralls to make good armor.Because Longjohns are a lot rarer.

OPERATION "JUNGLEJUICE" HAS BEEN A RESOUNDING SUCCESS!600 liters of the finest grog in the entire Kentucky area!
>>2789453both. Normalfags are genuinely retarded cattle, the uden weren't exactly wrong.Also I think some stars aligned. A few streamer groups coincidentally happened to be doing some big collaborative zomboid servers with each other recently without planning for the "stable" launch which was a lucky signal boost for TIS.
>>2789481honestly this is the best mechanic they've added sipping on a mixed drink to manage pain is kind of peak>can't make fruit juice in vanillagay
>>2789546Once you make a single barrel of junglejuice, it's probably going to outlast your character.It'd probably be cool if we had NPC's and the 600 liters actually gets used up. But Lemmy is retarded so...Great.99 thousand calories in that barrel, which probably equates to 3 days of survival given that our characters eat as much as grizzly bears.
>>2789453yeah but now your muscles get fatigue from 5 minutes of combat and zombies have varying speeds so you can't kite 50000 at a time
>>2789601That pushes the player towards guns, but it feel really weird that I stumble on many more full on rifles and shotguns in homes than handguns.
Any servers? If not is there list of mods you guys use?
>find basement with hidden door behind stacked boxes>secret room filled with military clothes, boots, duffel bags, holsters, and empty storage containers>zero guns and ammo, just clothes and boxest-thanks
>none of the good gun mods are updated yet

>>2790124i haven't tried that onei was specifically talking about Gaels and Britas
>>2787377Does it still lag when you're driving a car, with relatively high speeds??
>>2790272Yeah. My frametimes look like a pulse driving down the muldraugh highway.
I can’t wait for the public multiplayer scene to be enshittified further!>end of b40 had only 2-3 decent servers, well run, janitors actually cared to do their job and you didn’t have to worry about the server going kaput, though there were servers with retarded janitors and admins as is the case during the beginning of time. >b41 mp release brings a wave of retards who don’t know how to mod yet alone run a dedicated server, and the list is flooded with 300 mod+ servers that barely run, searching through them requires battlemetrics now. The only fun I had during this era was a anarchy server that ran for a week during release that had people larp as a faction that shot all blacks and women on sight, while patting down anyone else for guns and ammo with the threat of death (I barely smuggled my .38 revolver since it wasn’t visible on my player under my satchel) >B42 comes, 100k player spike, 40k more then record count. You can expect more shitty servers, shitcord “whitelisting”, and retarded normalfag hosts who can’t debug for shit and will blame you for timing out while loading in, because they decided adding 20 conflicting map mods isn’t the issue.Oh, and don’t forget the server owner cabal and their private “bad person” list! I had the fun of learning that because I randomly got b& on Valhalla despite breaking no rules, and all the server host/admin had to say was “you were on da evil person list” for one ban I had 1-2+ years ago.
Games going viral
>>2790836TO THE MOOOOON
Do we still need to place traps 70 tiles away or has TIS finally done something about it?
are these corpse piles safe to burn where they are or is it dangerousi noticed even with a dust mask I get the bad smell moodle
>>2790882Should be safe, but you can just wait for the bodies to decompose on their own.
so this is the power of 19 chickens
rip. guess that's what I get for minmaxing with prone to disease and thin skinno way its a regular infection since I've been super careful with sanitized rags and alcohol
I play with infection off
>>2790900Where's the semen meter?
>>2790975Unless you're queasy and stressed for no reason, "Infected" is a nothingburger.
>>2790979It's a shitty mechanic honestly.
>>2790975>>2791039Even if you become queasy, if they haven't removed the fakeout zombification sickness thing they used to have, you might be fine.It's just a wound infection as opposed to knox infection, which the game will never tell you whether it is nor not.Only time you know for sure is if you've been bitten. But lacerations do have a 25% chance or so.
>>2791039>>2791127alright seems it was just a regular one. bandage got knocked off by a tree I walked through and got scratched by and now the infection is gone.time to risk the police station
Is it just me or do rain collectors feel slow now? Its been raining for like a day straight.
nice prop placement tis
>veteran>panic still builds up from hearing zomboid thumps all nightgay
>>2790979What is the point in playing this game if you turn the bite off you fucking faggot?
>>2791211definitely not procgenned btw
>99% of the houses ar etotally fuckedlmfaoshit game alert
>>2791265to have fun?
is there a /v/ zomboid server?
>>2790119I have found it's not actually too big of a deal, whenever the first thirsty moodle shows up, just drink 1/4th of a canteen and that seems to work just fine.Still annoying and totally unjustified why they removed it.
>>2790882Fire that isn't microwaves/ovens exploding does not spread on anything but dry grass (and even then, not very much)So 100% safe.
>>2791265>What is the point in playing this game if you turn the bite off you fucking faggot?Fun?
>>2791211Something is fucky with these tables across the map. This is not procgen.
>Doubles record of player count with a patch that is underwhelming and missing features promised for said patchYep, pack it up boys because they're never going to finish this game if every 5 years they can make infinity money while only making a minor update.
Will anyone join a /vm/ server? I'm down to spend like 30 dollars max a month to pay for this shit. I'd need a list of mods though
>>2791349I know for sure the middle of the desk in the West Point PD is a bugged tile or something. Can't be picked, disassembled, or have items placed and can walk through it.
>>2791494you probably don't need to spend $30 on this. however, i am willing to join if you do end up renting one.
>>2791494I'd self host one on my spare PC but that's probably not a great idea...
>>2791498I really don't mind, it wouldn't inconvenience me to just have it rented and used as a general threadly server that's always up.
>>2791494if you're good at all with doing computery things then avoid getting a GAYMUR specific server and just get a VPS and follow a wiki/guide on setting up dedicated server.I'd play though
Interesting... Also why can't I interact with a sink that I install even if I plumbed it REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>2791511I have a VPS for other things, but https://indifferentbroccoli.com/project-zomboid-server-hosting >*Plans provide uncapped RAM. Only player count is limitedIf this is true it seems a better deal than a VPS with less RAM for more cost, though who knows how slow their RAM actually is. I also have no clue how much RAM a zomboid server uses up for a few players.
>>2791514If there's no water, there's nothing to interact with.If the water's out, you're not going to get water just by plumbing the sink.Nor are you going to get water if there's no water in the rain collector above the sink.
>>2791359the mass psychosis this game has caused the general public is crazy. no other developer would be allowed to get away with this.
the world yearns for simcity 1 graphics
>>2791529sims 1* I'm fucking retarded
>>2791522The water isn't out yet on this particular save when I try it. I picked up a sink and some counter pieces from a kitchen that I liked and installed it in my base. But when I right click on the sink it doesn't appear on the context menu. If I interact with a sink that was in the base from the start, it works just fine. Perhaps setting up rain collectors ahead of time will have it work again, I'll try that, thanks.

>try multiplayer for the first time>spawn in one of the four starter towns>everything is picked clean>zero zombies in sight>all vehicles harvested for their engine partsok cool. guess theres nothing to play unless you get in at wipe.
>>2791584It is funny to watch Lemmy seethe about cigarettes of all things, why even have them in the game if they're pointless? Hell, B42 added even MORE types of tobacco for some reason and they're ALL as useless as each other.
>>2791602>hes playing a public server bad idea
>>2791602Zomboid is not a multiplayer game as much as retards insist it is.Zomboid is primarily a singleplayer game, or at most a co-op game with a buddy or two. Playing multiplayer is basically only for the memes or to roleplay George Floyd curbstomping people.
>>2791612wheres the /vm/ server
>>2791618Upcoming probably by this anon: >>2791519

>>2791623wym i missed my shots on vanilla despite aiming good bro?
>>2791633You might need to update the game from B41.
>>2791636im on b42 no mods
>>2791643That's cool, I am sorry for your muscle spasms making aiming challenging. I wish you the best of luck champ!
Is this the new bait?

>>2791653idk any mods for b42 tbqh
>>2791653just dl some qol collection thing on steam

god i wish there was npcs so it felt like having high loot was actually meaningful
>>2791653Get a collection instead of picking up random shit 1 by 1

>there's a masonic lodge in rosewood with a torture basementwtf i love lemmy now
>>2791727Screenshot that shit nigga!
wat
>>2791756What? You didn't have a Jesus Room when you were younger?
these ragdolls are terriblei kind of like the new aiming system though
>>2791828I wish I could make it so that ragdolls only applied to car collisions.
game would look better if it stayed 2d btw
>>2791653Whatever the my summer car and compatible vehicle physics mods were. Default vehicle physics fucking stink and I’m sick of vehicles being fragile to collisions but otherwise incapable of degrading or requiring further maintenance then repairing hood, trunk, and engine.
>>2791602Are you a retarded newfag by chance?You leave the starting town after finding a melee weapon, water bottle, and some food.And no the town isn’t so “picked clean” that there isn’t a plastic bottle in the trash, some random ass melee weapon (bread knife, pipe, rolling pin, frying pan, etc), and edible food (rotten food can be nibbled on to avoid starvation as long as you don’t eat too much of it and get sick). In the case that it is picked clean, then the server owner forgot to enable loot respawn.Regardless, you can run north from Muldraugh to the other spawn towns and Dixie (West Point and Riverside), run south to Rosewood and March Ridge, run east to Ekron or whatever Doe Valley shithole there is, or run west past the train yard and to the west Muldraugh lake cabins (which have a hidden ammo spawn).
>>2791876>ummmm you're not supposed to stay in place>and place isn't X>and if it is X then I'm still not wrong btw>anyway you should do exactly what I sayYou should get a job in middle management, I hear its great for micromanaging dicksuckers like you
>>2791880Thanks for proving you’re a retarded newfag.I really don’t know what you want people to say when you get told the obvious.People loot spawn because they spawn right there so spawn is going to be mostly empty until it respawns loot (provided that’s enabled by the host).>ummmm you're not supposed to stay in placeYes because it’ll be looted? Nobody’s stopping you from making a safe house in a spawn town, just don’t get upset that there’s little loot left.
>>2791883>um your problem doesn't exist>and btw if it does exist its YOUR FAULTApologize to your mother for being born. You ruined a perfectly good pussy with your fat empty head
>>2791864Oh, and having to gut out all nearby cars into unusable husks to repair your shitbox because apparently using tools to fix car components or fabricating spares is impossible. (Mods have to fix this).
>>2791893Is it vanilla that apparently the way to fix an exploded engine is to rip apart 6 other engines to turn them into nebulous scrap that magically repairs your engine? I hate that shit. Why can't we just engine swap
>>2791888I accept your concession.Maybe play more single player before bitching and moaning about how there’s “no loot” and how you can’t be assed to forage or leave spawn.
>>2791898I accept your concessionNext time don't insist a problem isn't real when you know it is.
>>2791897Yes, that is vanilla and is part of why I hate vehicles.They’ve also been unstable in multiplayer if you speed too fast in them (map loading just ceases to work and you have to potentially relog with a swarm of zombies outside of your vehicle). B40 had some vehicle lag but holy shit has it only gotten worse since then, B41’s vehicle lag even in stable was just atrocious, even with B42’s first unstable MP release and under 200ms of ping with one other friend on a local server, driving the car made insane desync for both clients, along with breaking a bunch of other stuff like your inventory item transfer and melee holsters. I dunno, vehicles need a physics (the fact that the RPM gauge is nonsensical when shifting gears pisses me off, along with not being able to manually shift gears or coast while in neutral or in gear), and mechanics (oil changes, oil leaks, make sure coolant is topped off, different engine components get damaged on collision with different consequences instead of the entire engine block failing, etc) overhaul.I really liked the My Summer Car mod when it came out, but apparently the modderfag understandably gave up on that because of TiS breaking mods massively every second patch cycle in unstable.
>>2791899I gave you solutions to the problem, never denied it once.Mope and bitch more, or just play single player if you want loot and to always “be first”.
>>2791908>>And no the town isn’t so “picked clean”>>n the case that it is picked clean>it isn't X>but if it is XI accept your concession.
>>2791660Their shills have deemed us a threat. Blackrock is very unhappy with us.
>>2791756See, this maybe wouldn't be a problem if the rest of the house were also heavily jesus themed. If someone were a jesus nut I could see it happening.But the rest of the house is completely average.Whatever saar they got to AIgen their buildings is probably laughing and shitting himself right now.

What's your vehicle of choice
>>2792062Dart for stealth, Step van for clearing.
>>2792062tow truckbiggest truck I can find
>>2792062Any of the vans, anything else is merely a method of transport, rather than useful vehicle. If I am going to another town, it's pretty useless if I can't bring a base worth of shit with me.
>>2792062Franklin All Terraindecent trunk, decent off road, looks cool, high wheel clearance.
