Your voice is so calming that i put this on to fall asleep to and i didn't even make it past the character creation. Watching again tonight but skipping to gameplay.
It's a fun game, I'm glad they're updating it quickly! I wonder if they tuned the zombie HP a bit, since I don't remember them going down to single shots as easily on release day.
Got 130 hours on this so far. It's awesome. Best 10.00 I spent in a long time on steam. I have like 10-15 new games I haven't even touched because of this game. Every time I start one of the others my mind drifts back to Zed Zone. Play on "Realistic" (Hard Mode) and Guns "Total Ban" and NO CLOTHES to start it's really fun and a good fight your lucky to loot anything for offence everything you use is crafted by you.
Why is the UI over complicated so much clicking just to craft something (open inventory -> open crafting -> click on what you want to craft -> drag items -> craft -> drag into inventory) you'd be dead in a tense situation, eveything feels a bit overcomplicated and just needs to be stream lined, other than that i love the looks and feels excited to get my hands on it.
Late to the comment party, but I am interested in watching you continue with a part 2 and, if you get enough views, start a adventure series similar to what you've done in PZ. I saw Zed Zone pop up in my Steam discovery queue but I was not sure if it would satisfy my addiction to zombie survival/post-apocalypse games. What you have shown us of Zed Zone was enough to get me to purchase it and play. Thanks for sharing with us and helping me decide to pull the trigger.
This game seems really nice. The guns pack a punch, feel very responsive and impactful. The visuals bother me a little. Not because is pixel art, but because sometimes is so blurry I feel like I'm watching without glasses. Can't really see shapes and details. I hope they sharpen this a little more.
Did you almost die from not sleeping? Im pretty sure the graphics are a combination of higher resolution image tiles and pixel graphics with a pixel filter to make them blend together. That would make it easier to animate parts of game, animating pixels can be difficult. Actually a very clever technique. Seeing you push through your fears is really nice to see.
Any chance you'll ever return to C:DDA? Your playthrough with Vormithrax got me interested in the game a few years ago and I haven't been able to stop thinking about it since.
I was waiting for you to play this game after I saw the trailer on Steam. It looked like a more action oriented zomboid, so it screamed at me Ambiguous Amphibian! And here you are. You don't disappoint.
Played it and the game is nice but it could be polished to be better. Though personally as a dude that enjoys base building in survival games like PZ, hope they would improve the building aspect of the game.
I was just thinking how I wanted to see someone play this before deciding on picking it up myself, and lo and behold, here comes one of my favorite TH-camrs to showcase it. Yea picked this up about when you left Walmart.
I take issue with the "autistic" trait describing nonvocal/nonverbal behavior. ...I don't know why a game like this would include traits like *autism* when they aren't even describing it... Nevermind, I'm becoming speechless because I don't even know how to respond anymore, it is retroactively accurate
@@ComradeMaryFromMars Right. They are not describing anything unique or strongly associated with autism, so why make a potentially offensive and confusing choice?
Typical, sadly society sees us as "rainman" due to media and general ignorance. Personally i find it offensive to put that in a game as a negative trait. Hope they will see and remove the trait, although i doubt they care since they added it in the first place.
bruh i bought the game day one after watching splattercat play on his channel. such a great game. might be a zomboid competitor if they add multiplayer and mods
When I first started my current job, I was having to walk in the middle of winter too, and I lived about a mile out of town, roughly three away from my job. Worst day was -50 with wind-chill. Wore two to three of everything, even coats and balaclavas.
hey man just wanted to say i love the content been watching for years now but pretty sure weve met once in person 😅 though not sure the voice is what im going off of wont disclose anything but keep making content u love sincerely stranger 😊
From what I've seen of it I think the only complaint I'd have about this game is that it looks blurry/fuzzy. To be clear I'm not saying I dislike the graphical style, but everything looking like it has an arbitrary blur filter over it is sort of annoying and gets hard on my eyes. I have fairly high visual acuity and so whenever an image looks blurry like this my eyes keep trying to focus things that just aren't possible, so it ends up giving me eye strain fairly quickly. Apart from that the gameplay and everything else seems great. Like Zomboid but more action-oriented.
I do recommend returning to C:DDA too! But - big but! There was an unscrupulous member on the dev team who chose to abuse the collaborative's ineptitude in american legalese, took the entire body of work, and put it on STEAM for private, personal monetary benefit. This, of course, not only steals from the goodwill and work of many, but also threatens the entire collaborative nature of the game project. IDK what the project members were thinking either tbh. Whole lotta supremely creative and intelligent, beautifully human dumbasses at work.
Life Pro Tip for Capes.... As far as an actual functional and good cape that looks kind of cool, it's a good idea to get a military surplus wool blanket and make/acquire a brooch. I made one, so it looks very simplistic, and therefore more masculine. Buying a decorative brooch these days can run the risk of looking kind of girly. But anyway... you can pre-cut the holes so you don't have to poke the brooch through each time, and then sew them so they are open, but don't fray, and you can wear it so you have a hood. It is also very warm. I've used it in my house when I had no heating and I was fine. It's also good for hiking trips. It's also reasonably cheap... and since it is either olive, forest green, or grey (grey wool blankets are usually navy ones) it looks rustic like a real cape from a fantasy movie. So you look the part, you'll be warm, and it's not expensive. Just don't put it in the dryer or you will have massive bits of fluff coming out of it. It's also best to wash in cool water with regular soap, but you don't need to wash wool often, because it is naturally anti-biotic and is very much not prone to molding the way wet cotton is. Since it is wool, you can wear it in the rain. You will get wet, and it will soak through, but it will still insulate very well. Just get one that is twin matress sized and you'll be good.
This guy says he's never pooped himself. Bruh, last I checked sharts count as poop and there ain't an adult out there who doesn't know the precautionary sit on the toilet when you have diarrhea fart.
Be AA. Show off weird cluster zombie. Move on, 5 meters, and walk into "house". Ooh, a zombie, and another, and another, I need to defend now. You've played far too much Zomboid, to not have seen that coming. lmfao

Try some asmr man lol

Gamer ASMR
@Haxyl ASMR is creepy and sounds horrible...this man is genuinely perfect sleeping voice VODs...fuck ASMR
True
definitely deserves a part 2 of this.
would be awesome to have a part 2! Great review of this early access so far, would love to see more of it
Triple pairs of pants? I wear quadruple in case I poop myself.
Honestly an MLG move
you expect to poop yourself 3 times in a row?!
@@zwenkwiel816 at bare minimum
That's one hell of a bowel movement

Thanks for introducing me to another wonderful game. Also, very calming voiceover for an apocalyptic scene.

Not clunky by any means overcomplicateded doesnt mean bad, it just can get annoying after a while i can still enjoy the game as is
Should you be able to craft something while a zombie is lunging at you?
press C to open inventory
@@fakename3208 if that's what you think a tense situation is then sure
@@firstordertrooper3339 yes a majority of games have a inventory key were you surprised?

There are graphical settings and I think there are some that change the sharpness but I may be wrong I haven’t played in a while
Litteraly playing as "the quiet kid" with all those traits
He just describes someone on 4chan that literally is someone who's writing as we speak.
Been playing the hell out of it. The combat is so satisfying
Is there an option to reduce the lightning effect? I can't say I care for the constant flashes.
@@Goddesslliasyou can just turn off your monitor
The game has potential. Needs more character customization and mods then it'll be golden.
Phase 1 Update is coming with workshop support, so hopefully a ton of fun mods starts coming in when its out
@@Envylia I’m waiting for people to make the war machine into a pilotable mech 😂
That main menu screen reminds me of older titles like Fallout & Diablo.
1:01:15
I have this video running in the background while I play CDDA and my brain suddenly tunes-in to hear this...

Keep it up man, love the zombie survival genre.
I'm really glad this game is getting traction, I really want the Dev to get some funding and support
"It's like the Neo Scavenger I never had!" 👍 (hee hee!)
Would love to see more of this 🎉
Is there a base/base building or other characters you can equip to follow/guard? If not they should definitely add that
"isnt it great when I play a game well?"
Says the man who played Kenshi as a torso and turned them into a god character
Me: Oh cool the map functions are done PDA style like Stalker.
AA: And we have some sort of Nintendo Switch here.
Me: Whelp now I feel old.
Love it! Would love to see more content like this!
1:10:45 It combines all of the elements from these games so well with its own style of rpg.
Close the freaking doors behind you!!😂
YAY!!!!!!! I am SO GLAD you picked this up! This is such a great game!
The S&W Revolver shooting 9mm cartridges lol
This feels like a more user-friendly CDDA

definitely would be down for another episode as well

...I don't know why a game like this would include traits like *autism* when they aren't even describing it...
Nevermind, I'm becoming speechless because I don't even know how to respond anymore, it is retroactively accurate
Autism would be very hard to put into a game without it causing offense mainly because it's so varied from experience to experience
@@ComradeMaryFromMars Right.
They are not describing anything unique or strongly associated with autism, so why make a potentially offensive and confusing choice?
@@johnalogue9832 I like to give them the benefit of the doubt and assume they did some quick research and threw it in the game with good intentions
@@ComradeMaryFromMars I still say it's just a strange choice, I have no idea what their intentions would or wouldn't be.

*Cough cough The Forest,Minidayz2 etc cough cough*
Lol
I would love to see more

This makes me want to play Neo Scavenger again
"slow reader, adhd, ugly, autistic"
I'm flattered you decided to roleplay as me
Game is like STALKER.
AA discovers a thing in games called "Storage" @1:11:40... lol
Awaiting full release, feels janky on my PC right now. Weird font, few options, weird resolution, tiny prompts
Is that a Google Pixel Popcorn notification sound I hear in the background Mr Ambiguousamphibian? Hmmm
Looks like a more real-time Neo Scavenger. The UI is exactly the same in places.
We live in a satietey
ive worn triple pairs of pants to work because it was negative 20 degrees F and i was a bicycle delivery person :C game is relatable.
When I first started my current job, I was having to walk in the middle of winter too, and I lived about a mile out of town, roughly three away from my job. Worst day was -50 with wind-chill. Wore two to three of everything, even coats and balaclavas.
I went to college in South Dakota and a warm day was 2 pairs, I feel this comment in my bones.
So you're saying my a.d.d. is a negative the maker of this game kind of based.
As soon as I saw the menu all I could think about was CDDA
You know a game is hard when AA plays on easy mode
this looks very cool but i cant really see the zombies among the dirt and debris. too many browns for my colorblind ass lmao
47:02:Hmm yes my favorite youtuber:AH XD🤣🤣🤣
As someone who worked at a walmart it is a pvp environment.
They have updated this game Abit now.. your clothes are already open on the side now for storage
59:00
They have an air gun in the metro games and it's very fun to use
this game is gonna be so good
I hope AA gets a chance to take the CDDA Steam release for a whirl

I just can't gel with the art style. Just not doing it for me. I'll stick to watching you playing it :D
The dev mentioned that he hired an artist, so it might change in the future.
Project Zomboid looked like poop when it first hit EA too. I wouldn't write it off quite yet.
art style is stopping you then you should play another game... because this is not changing any time soon
@@firstordertrooper3339 yep. Hence why I'm watching rather than buying. I'm good with zomboid

it might have it's upsides but it just looks like 2D Unturned to me
bought this game because of the stream
this does look really interesting, but the HUD. theres so. much. HUD.
foraging for food is based
I bought this haven't really got to grind it much yet.

Part 2 when?
Dang i saw a lot of streamer blindness in this one
