It would be great if they put huge hordes of zeds on migration paths too.
Are devs taking from Hydrocraft mod or Hydrocraft took from devs original ideas? 🤔
Tried to start farming on roof top of Rosewood fire station yesterday but I was not able to, that's when I realized that I needed you; a dirtbag.
Jkjk love your content and it's helped me a ton surviving! Keep them coming and keep it up!
Hunting part sounds pretty realistic. I'm sure they will make it insanely detailed eventually. Even some basic hunting would make it a perfect game for me.
Imagine those AAA studios being just half as passionate about their games.
Love this game and the dev team behind it. I wish them all the success they aim for.
I say kudos to Hunting wild animals! Man I can't contain this amount of excitement for Build 42!
Plus Clay and Bricking making Hell yeah; No more wood or even metallic structure and furniture
Its time for age of Brick housing and pottery!
Even if we dont get deep interactable NPC events, id be content with just road bandit npcs who dont talk, just shoot on sight and use similar migration patterns around roads and drain gas stations and grocery stores overtime
is there an eta for build 42?
i wish kentucky was real
Still no vanilla archery, eh? I know there's mods for it, but I've not been able to get mods working on my computer for some time. And yes, I've tried damn near everything everyone always suggests when I bring that up. I'm at the point where I just want archery in the vanilla game and I'll pretty much be happy 😛
They could change foraging to surivival/wilderness could be an combination of foraging and hunting/teacking for animals!
I'm almost gonna become a father and they still haven't dropped npcs yet
awesomeee
Am i supposed to start a new game to enjoy the new stuff? (After update, of course).
I am kinda new to the game, 200 hours but i've played only 3 or 4 games. My current running is very old, i wouldn't like to abandon it.
Project Zomboid is becoming Minecraft more and more with everyday! Lol.
i want dog and horses!
I hope the npc update doesn’t take as long to implement than this update is taking
Great now we can roleplay primitive technology in PZ
Lets be real, neighborhood cats would keep the humans alive if the zombie plague actually happened….
I guess the new hunting mechanics are cool but what I'm really interested in is the new crafting mechanics
6:15 The IRL reason for glazing pottery is to make the resulting ceramic watertight. Fired pottery/terracotta will (slowly) leech water from inside.
TANGENT: In current South America I believe (I'm probably wrong about my geography) as well as other areas going back a few thousand years there is a terracotta irrigation pot called an 'Olla'. This pottery is unglazed and is filled with water, then placed in the ground, thus irrigating plants in a small area around it.
I imagine pottery seepage could translate into Project Zomboid without much issue.
Otherwise, clay pots would be a useful way to store items or transport bulk water with some minor water loss.
I would love it if the zeds could be used like other animals (in that while you cant eat them there is a purpose for their corpses) it would make it more like the zeds have become a part of the ecosystem.
Glazing is usually used to make clayware waterproof, so you can drink out of it. Sure you could try it without glazing but it wont last as long.
One small thing I'd like to see is half floor tiles, so you can make more than just a square or rectangular path.
Detailed animal migration + movement is cool and all, but what about having zombies migrate in larger groups around the map, so when you are in wilderness it's not just 100% quaranteed 0 zombies if you happened to place your base in the correct spot.
at 2:00 you can see a 2 headed dear like in fallout 😀
I will wait until there are npcs and missions and human bases and scavengers until the world is more lived in before i even thinking about buying this game
Its the endgame is why i never bought this game,i played dayz ,mini dayz and after hundreds of hours i am not enticed by a game with no objectives or end or campaign
Nice video
This is the most hyped I've been for any game in a long time, this update is gonna be massive
Would be sick if they added bunkers into this game (or underground places in general)
Edit: or sewers, would be brilliant
You are a god for making these vids my man
I hope it comes out in a year lol
This games potential is insane, the other day I thought about how cool it would to make it a racing game with rpg elements
