I am one of your noobs! I'm also a Scot (in Fife). It is virtually impossible for an experienced player such as yourself to put yourself in the position of a newbie such as myself. My reality is that on my third start, I am at day 10 and have only just completed my forge. I now have 2 dew collectors because I eat and drink enough for five grown men.

Prebuilt is over here teaching the noobs all the tricks TFPs don't want them to know while simultaneously mocking the hell out of the devs' dumb decisions lol. I can't wait for the day 7 "So... you actually don't need to build a horde base" moment.

@@superbeta1716 Dude, there's literally no need to "exploit" movement mechanics in this game, all you have to do is stand on a rooftop and break any access to it. I'm one of the "most players" that you refer to, and the changes to this game have sucked all the fun for me. BTW, who tf cares about what random people on the internet say, just play the game the way you want. If you enjoy the changes that's great, I think the recent changes have been poorly thought out and poorly implemented, and that's my problem with them. If they had been properly fleshed out, I wouldn't care. I too just wanna have fun playing the game I love, but the last three updates have made it difficult to do so.
I take you as someone who calls out crap and BS. From your vids I view you as some one who dont play around and is maybe little bit abrasive. And now to see you patiently explain game mechanics to the bone... is just amazing and adds another layer to one of my favorite youtouber. What a great series, too bad I just now got time to watch it.
The end rant about the loot table and how the skills effect it was very helpful, didn't realize there was a cap on the lockpick skill. Thank you so much.
The only caveat about going into the Burned Forest biome, even early game, is that it is only a matter of time before a Dire Wolf spawns. New players are going to have a tough time dealing with zombie dogs. They aren't going to stand a chance against a giant demon wolf.
This is why stealth builds are better for new players. They will die more often but will learn the zombie AI triggers and more importantly how to spot them when you haven't triggered them. With the new clothing items stealth actually becomes more viable to even though on a multiplayer server everyone now looks the same since dyes and customisation went out the window with the new gears.
As a console player, I am so freakin excited to finally play the updated 7 Days lol I still played the console version for years and actually enjoyed it but holy crap it is so much better now.
I started playing the game after release recently with my brother, it was so bizarre to find our I couldn't just scoop water from the nearby pond and boil it for drinking, it's mindboggling. I even crafted the damn bucket, it's completely useless! So the bit about devs hating the players, I can totally see it
Well that used to be a thing. A lot of a things used to be a thing like lootable zombies (not random drop bags) Or clothing customisation with 8 clothing slots that could all be modded. (you now have 4 and the set bonuses are kinda single purpose) The list goes on.
Most important lesson of the series "TFP actively hate the average player" - checks out after playing since A14. If new players try understanding why some things are how they are in the game, just assume TFP ignored common sense and only listened to the feedback in their own little echo chamber.
Nice. I got a couple of crucibles in Trader‘s forges but that was right after 1.0 came out and the fixed it so that won’t happen I believe. I’d rather have the tarp because it helps quicker
For that grill (and any other workstation tool): You can simply put it into its slot on the campfire, you can place a full stack there. This has no effect, but doesn't need extra space in a chest and you know where to find it if you want to make a second campfire one day.
Wait people don't make 2 campfires? I always make two : 1 grill and one with grill and pot. I might put in a pot on the food only campfire if i need glue but waiting for either food or water to get done so you can get food or water is silly to me.
Idk if you've covered this in this series yet, but it's good info up front for new players. Different POIs having preference toward certain gear. Like Mo Power Electronics(?) and Intellect related stuffs and magazines.
You can pre-dig Buried Supplies still, if you want to avoid the zombie waves. The bicycle exploit still exists. We all know TFPimps are too lazy to properly test their game.
I'm surprised no one seems to pay attention to the distance in the top right corner while doing buried supplies quests. It literally shows you where the chest is located and all you have to do is to dig straight down to it. 🤷🏻♂️
It baffles my mind that this is still in the game... 1.0 now, really? And the only thing we need a log for is the forge. They could have simply removed the log item (from the game) and replaced it in the forge recipe for the 10 wood. Makes zero sense that they haven't 🤷♂️
Devs definitely hate us. They made new voicelines of traders that are brokenly annoying and loud, impossible to turn off and impossible to run away from. They know you will listen them hundreds of thousands of times constantly. Check mate, players.
I got crazy lucky and found 3 legendary parts looting Jens place. 2 in her bedroom and one in the desk at one of her medical tents. Was wearing a level 6 rogue hood with treasure hunter installed so I’m sure that helped.
That is because TFP made it so the treasure hunter mod multiplies your looting persk/skill x rogue armor. It will be patched later down the line to the point it probably devides instead of multiplies though.
Everytime i see a book i would instantly use it. So good to know of the nerd outfit is a reason to save them. Also question. For the perk books does anything happen if you use 2 of the same book? Got the great heist v5 and found a 2nd 5 minutes later. I sold it assuming it wouldn't but just to be sure.
lol warning about wandering hordes... they are different kinds.. ya got ya normal ones, you can get a bunch of vultures, you can get a pack of zombie dogs, you can get hazmat and soldiers, the worst is zombie dogs with a zombie bear.. ive got the dog pack at night by day 4 that was rough.. even if it was day it was rough take outta this, never ever relax in this game, it will bite ya hard at times lol still its fun lol
The super savage country POIs have been giving me around 6 legendary parts mid-game (day 25ish, level 50ish) with the 7/7 book completion bonus. The T6 completion legendary part seems a bit irrelevant to me. That change in 1.0 does mean that savage countries should always get looted. Similarly, with the high amount of parts that you need for making tier 6 guns now means actually needing to loot shotgun messiah after putting points into the gun you want. Previously I always skipped looting those POIs.
My very first play though of 7d2d (with friends) I think I died about a dozen times. We were getting wrecked. Watched your episode of how to play, died once to game crashing & now on day 42. Console just has issues with four players on horse night. Also, the lag between rapidly switching slots in tool belt is an issue.
The buried supply quests have been broken for me the ! spawns directly above the supplies making it incredibly easy and fast. Does not seem to work for tier 3 though.
Can someone please tell me the map layout he’s playing on? I’ve restarted 3 times and keep getting a lay out with no cities and a bunch of mountains every quest poi is atleast 800 meters or more away
Yeah tell me about dropping down into a room!!! Did that earlier 🙄 tier 4 quest feral tourist, feral something, FERAL WIGHT and just to completely take the piss a RAD BIKER!!! Atleast it was quick 😂😂😂😂
Never go IN TO a room without having a way out as well! Or at least that's my rule. When going in from above, I always try to build a few ladders that I can jump back up to. If I can't, I'll break blocks until I can😅
Hello im watching 7 Days To Die 1.0 [Episode #11] and u you said you recognition the voice of the last trader im pretty sure it is JonnyEthco (Appsro) from Neebs gaming.
If my opinion means anything (and it doesn't) the one thing to look for is a place with at least 2 stories. That way you can place all your "heat" making items on the second floor making them more easily defendable. Other than that it's up to your taste. My personal favorite is a house you'll find sometimes that sits on a huge flatbed trailer (was being relocated when the apocalypse happened). Easiest defendable base I've ever took over.
@@slowmobius2136 Personally I try and pick something close to the nearest trader. That just makes it so convenient for selling off loot and getting quests.
Wandering hordes no longer have a bonus to loot bag drops in 1.0. you get 1 or 2 if you are lucky. It has gone back to not worth takign on wandering hordes.
@@gdgd5194 Y'know it was kinda jaring to have the other VA changed so dramaticaly. I dont mind Hugh so much, but yeah BoB and Joel just sound WRONG. The voice just dont match the face. Its just Rekt's such a crochety old bast**d I just wanna stab him in the face LOL :P
You just love to hate this game 😆 and you missed that guant carpet roll in the construction POI which is like over 100 cloth and easy to double loot if you can.
I found your videos since your first episode of this series. You're the most interesting player I've seen and I have no problem watching a full episode without breaks. Keep up the good work and thanks for the tips 🫡
Couple of things i think need improving, the hunger, the amount of food we need to eat is really crazy, like our survivor has a tapeworm or some shit, i once ate eggs and bacon, three cans of food, and a steak and ten mins later the sumbitch was hungry again......
That's because grilled meat and most canned food only restore 10 hunger apiece. That one bacon and eggs was about equal to those three canned food combined. With how often you need to regen health and stamina, you basically have to keep food on you at all times and eat as soon as you get hungry. The longer you neglect it, the harder it is to dig yourself out of that hunger debt, so it's much better to carry bacon and eggs and eat one as soon as you get hungry.

Huh. Today I learnt something. I just cheese by digging down to stone directly under the quest marker, then activating the quest. 😂
Its good to use the forge, campfire, cement mixer & chem station when you leave for the day
Love this series. Thanks
38:34 ngl this was biggest suprise for me after coming back after long time...
Got the pure mineral water and fuel saver mod schematics on day 3. Best save ever
I've never understood why we craft logs from WOOD. Shouldn't we be crafting wood from logs?
😂 thats 100% right
Because the devs don’t understand there own game anymore
I park on my driveway

Mineral water is pretty good if you manage to find the book.
