    7 Days To Die This is without a doubt the most immersive and well-crafted game I have ever played.

    This is without a doubt the most immersive and well-crafted game I have ever played.

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 09:08 AM PDT

    I am blown away by this game. Once you get past the learning curve in the beginning and begin to understand the game mechanics, it becomes an experience like nothing I have ever played before. I hear people talk about "immersion" but I've never felt immersed in a video game before, until now. This game actually makes you feel like YOU are the survivor. I can feel the emotions my character would feel as I explore the world, and this game actually rewards you for exploring thoroughly. Playing this game is probably raising my blood pressure haha, but it's worth it. Looting a POI and thinking you have everything under control when suddenly a wandering horde breaks in when you least expect it, the sheer number of items you can craft and the freedom the game gives you, the realistic mechanics, I mean I've played VR games but THIS game captures the feeling true VR should better than any VR game. It's absolutely incredible.

    The only complaint I have is the lack of story because there are SO many cool places that you want to know more. Notes you can find in the world explaining the backstory to certain POIs would be incredible. Here is an example.

    I'm doing a tier 3 fetch/clear for the trader in the frozen biome. I roll up on this mansion, and it seems like it's going to be a typical quest. The place is heavily trapped and while I'm sneaking through headshotting the sleepers, I hear something trying to break in. I'm searching for the source of the sound and it's a dire wolf from outside. I proceed to kill him and crawl through the basement and 2 stories, up to the roof, kill the vulture up there but the quest doesn't clear. Inside the house there are all of these body bags and coffins. Weird, I thought. I've never done "headcanon" before but I found myself imaging different scenarios. I roll through the house a couple more times trying to find the last zombies. Normally I get a compass marker for where the zeds are but none are appearing. I check the basement again and there's a podium and what looks like could have been some kind of cult activity, which seems to explain the body bags and coffins. Behind the podium is a curtain. I decide to hack the curtains to see if there is any treasure behind them, and find the entrance to a chemistry lab in a second basement that's isolated from the first. While I'm exploring that, suddenly a wandering horde breaks through the wooden floor from upstairs and I manage to fight them off but the adrenaline was high. I have a double barrel, AK, pistol and blunderbuss but I haven't really used them...saving them for harder horde nights and I'm specced heavily in sex Rex and the club perk, and I find my tier 3 baseball bat so satisfying to kill zombies with I generally forget I even have guns in the heat of the moment so it was a tense battle. Thank God for that stamina on kill bonus.

    I proceed to make my way through the new basement level and I find an underground bunker with a hoard of ammo and other loot. I finally see the golden compass dot showing me the last mobs and it's deeper in the bunker. I open the door to a huge pit with a large number of graves, and suddenly 3 more zeds pop up. I dispatch them with ease but didn't expect for the quest to take so long and it's now 1am and my leg is sprained so there is no way I'm going outside trying to outrun/outbike lumberjacks and mountain lions and wolves to get to my stash house which is about 750m away, so I build a campfire and cook the meat I received from the wolf I killed on the way and the one who broke in, because I'm hungry to the point of stamina reduction and I was completely encumbered and trying to free up a slot.

    Now, what I'd like to see are little notes scattered through the POI telling the story of what went on there. I have my own headcanon but I think the devs could make up some really cool stuff and that would make the game even more amazing than it already is, IMO.

    I'm so glad TFP are still updating this amazing game 6 years later and can't wait for the beta. I think I will be playing this game for a loooong time.

    Stupidity upon stupidity

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 03:18 AM PDT

    It is day 48 and I go around past all the grave yards and crypts to see if there are any re-spawned ammo for "free". It isn't free though. It takes time, and fuel in the bike to get there, and many swings of the club to clear out the zeds that crawled back in there after my previous visit.

    I get cocky and run a circle through the crypt to wake them all up, then plan on killing them all on the stairs. But they are fast, take too many hits to kill, and they swarm me.

    I clock up another death.

    3 Kms from home.

    Which means 3 kilometers from my bedroll.

    So I respawn. No problem. Mega crush, running shoes, running jacket and steroids from the storage in my base. I start running the straightest direct route to where my motorbike is.

    Running nearly the same speed as the motorbike, I go over hills and through crevaces, through trees and around rocks. As I emerge from some tree branches at high speed there is suddenly no ground below me. I've gone over the edge of a drop-off.

    I am falling, and I know what is coming. I am halfway between my motorbike and my base in the middle of nowhere.

    Crack.

    What affects hunger drain?

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 08:38 AM PDT

    Please, my son, he's very hungry. Because I keep eating all of the sham. The hunger drain has become intolerable- I can wolf down three yucca juice smoothies from the trader (66 food total) and be starving to death just about 5 minutes later. I've taken off all my heavy armor, but to seemingly no avail. The drain wasn't this bad until recently, but nothing has really changed. Is it linked to health regen? Stamina drain? Armor wearing? I have no clue exactly how it balances out (and the wikis are several Alphas out of date)

    Can we get these when we “accidentally” throw a Molotov????

    I played a prank on my friend

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 08:10 PM PDT

    Today I planted an azalea

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 09:49 PM PDT

    Is it worth it?

    Why?

    I knew she had smelled me. I've been looting the coffins, it being a good source of bullets, I've found. Hate myself, for that. Descecrating the dead like that. Those that are properly dead, I mean.

    There were some body bags, you know. The black and yellow ones, flies buzzing. Smells god awful as nothing else. In there I found some ... I'd rather not say. But she smelled me cause of that.

    I know, but she had lost most of her mind, so she just stood there with her back to me, hitting the door. I never saw her face. I swear. It is the morning before the horde and all I was thinking is "one less to come for me tonight". Sure you can understand that.

    I moved in slow, she knew I was there but she didn't know wat direction. So I lowered my gun and pulled the bat out, and I swung. Her head made a sound... I will never forget. The body lay there, that terrible gurgling sound from the neck.

    Worst part is I didn't even look at her, I just went for the bag she dropped.

    Opened it and I pulled out the ring.

    The ring I gave her after prom.

    I never saw her face.

    Azaleas were her flowers. Perhaps tonight I won't shoot at the horde. When they come. Perhaps I'll just stand there and wait for them to take me.

    How to get brass in large quantities?

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 09:17 PM PDT

    The brass is the bottleneck when it comes to crafting ammunition...

    Where do you get it in large enough quantities to sustain a base with lots of turrets?

    Question about long Horde nights

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 05:28 PM PDT

    I'm not sure why, but all of my horde nights are nonstop until 4am. When i watch other let's plays, early game hordes will end as early as midnight and it isn't until the 3rd or 4th horde night that they last all night. Even if I run horde every night, day 1 will last until 4am...it's exhausting my resources horribly. I asked a question a few weeks about my difficulty seeming to be to high and the answer was that a glitch raised my spawn game stage level; however, my game state is fixed and set at one now...so I'm not sure what this could be. Any ideas?

    A19 Loot table fix v2.0! [unofficial]

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 01:30 AM PDT

    This mod aims to balance loot distribution in A19 to feel less Linear.

    TLDR: In simple terms this mod will make the A19 loot table play out like a modified and slightly more challenging version of A18. You can get high tier loot all the time, although it's unlikely - you won't be swamped with blunderbusses on day 20 and many many other quality of life improvements...

    -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

    THIS IMAGE SHOWS HOW LOOT DISTRIBUTION WORKS IN THIS MOD

    -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

    DOWNLOAD

    https://filebin.net/zoju4aq4ifwixa6v

    -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

    HOW TO INSTALL

    1) Simply download both XML files and replace the existing files from the link above.

    2) Place both files in your install directory "\steamapps\common\7 Days To Die\Data\Config" - make sure you overwrite both files.

    -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

    CHANGES

    • Reworked the gamespeed in Gamestages.xml, was 1.7x in old loot mod is now 1.5x - we feel this better reflects a fun pace for gameplay... A19 default is 1.2 which feels a little slow. The higher the number, the faster you'll get stuff (including hard mobs.)

    • Reworked high tier items so they can drop before game level 100, although they remain very rare and drop chances slowly increase over time.

    • In general reworked every loot tier so they are available at every level of the game, with drop rates that scale in a balanced fashion. Drop rates are similar if not a little more punishing than the A18 loot table.

    • Reworked a 'bug' (with A19 loot table) where you would always get high tier recipes before the gun/item could even drop, this was because tier 3 recipes were placed in the tier 2 loot table, meaning you'd always have crafted a high level tier3 weapon before you even saw one drop. Effectively rendering Tier 3 item drops boring.

    • Tier 0 loot becomes very rare to find at a quicker rate (no blunderbuss spam at high/mid game stage.)

    • Tier 1 and 2 loot are always SLIGHTLY more likely to drop over Tier 3 loot. This means even at a high level receiving Tier 3 loot feels rewarding. For example you will not be spammed with T3 weapons at a high level. However the general quality of the items will be very good the more you level.

    • Made it so there is less Tier 0 gameplay as we felt the items available in the game (wood axe, blunderbuss, wooden club and stone spear) are too limited for this game stage to last a long time and remain entertaining. Our aim was to make finding guns for the first horde night feel special, not impossible!

    • Adjusted the loot quality table (not to be confused with the tier changes) so high level items always have a chance to drop. Although at a low game stage finding a high level item is rare. To compare, in the A19 loot table you have a 0% chance of getting a level 6 gun before certain gamestages, we wanted to avoid this, it feels stale and predictable.

    Changes from version 1.0 of the mod

    • Important Tier 3 recipes are no longer in the tier 2 loot table and instead have been moved to a new Tier 3 recipe table.

    • Further balanced Tier 0, 1, 2 & 3 loot progression so you should have at least 1 or 2 horde night in each loot stage. In the old version Tier 2 didn't last as long as I had wanted.

    • At extremely high game stages Tier 3 items are still exciting to find as the loot table remains populated with a variation of Tier 1 & 2 items. Old patch felt too predictable at higher game stages.

    Keep in mind, all of this is based on probability, as an extreme example you might just hit the lottery and get a level 6 pump shotgun on day 1. This keeps the game fun so you can change your gameplay and the decisions you make depending on your luck.

    We also tried making a modlet for this version but we ran out of time, however if someone wants to make a modlet that has more experience, that would be lovely!

    Thanks and enjoy!

    How to defend a day horde at your base entrance without being close?

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 05:41 PM PDT

    I have a good defense system for my base with spikes, junk turret and sledge turrets. But for this to work I have to be close but sometimes I'm too far away in my base and have to run up every time I hear a screamer...

    What's the solution for this? Shotgun/ smg turret and motion sensors? Or do these turrets count into the same category as the junk turret and I have to be close for it to work?

    Are you tired of surviving alone? Ever wish you had a friend help you through horde nights? Have you ever been so lonely you spawned and placed a zombie corpse in your base to keep you company(You know who you are!)?

    If so, you've come to the right place. By posting here you can find friends to play and survive with! Remember, you don't need to be faster than the zombies just faster than your friends ;)

    Please leave your Steam/XB1/PSN name, what time zone you're in and works best for you, and (If you're on PC) any mods you may be using.

    Can anyone help us figure out why we cant build wood blocks along these pillars? We're trying to do a wood floor. It held overnight when the pillars were wood. But as soon as they were changed to cobblestone the floor came crashing down. My friend cant figure out the proper spacing needed to build a second story floor.

    This is on PC version
