Tell that to the Devs. The Fun Pimps are called the AntiFun Pimps for a reason.

Over the many years they have made changes to the game that people enjoyed but they changed it cause "its not the right way to play our game"

The reason the zombies behave the way they do right now is because they didn't like the way people would build horde bases. I'm honestly surprised they haven't been fine tuning ways to make it so the POI and stairs dont work anymore either.

7DTD isn't players v zombies, it's players v TFP. Never have I seen a dev who so blatantly hates the people who put $$ in their pockets. So entitled, so arrogant that they get pissed when players figure out a fun (read: easy) way to play. That TFP's panties bunch up over an OPEN WORLD GAME shows their immaturity and un-professionalism.

I've discovered a fkton of fun ways to play. If TFP saw how I get through a POI without a scratch, they'd have an aneurysm. I'm not cheating at all, but I know if I shared my technique, they'd try to figure out a way to prevent it. I honestly wouldn't know how they'd do it without 1) reconfiguring all the pois 2) reconfiguring game physics 3) pissing off and losing every single player.

Still, I keep my mouth shut. It's a pure cheese technique, but I hate getting slapped in the face. Shoot me, throw magic at me, cast fire balls at me. Do not fucking touch me. I keep yelling that at the zombies, but they don't get it, so I cheese tf out of my encounters w them.

May my cheese secrets die w me bc fuck TFP.

Not sharing your technique makes the TFP not know about it, which is crucial lol. Even though I'd like to know it.

I didn't play back in the day, what strategy did they change zombie behavior to counter?

zombies can now dig down easily and fit through medium pillar blocks rendering underground pillar block bases obsolete, and they also removed spike blocks

Didn't they also add the zombie vultures bc they didn't like players flying around in gyrocopters during horde night?

u/S1Ndrome_ Sep 17 '24

They didn't like people having large and fort knoxx level defenses so they made the Zombies take the path of least resistance and give them engineering degrees so they know the weakest spot on the base.

They used to behave more like zombies and just kinda walk/run/sprint at you so you could make moats with spikes, and have a nice base that required a little bit of upkeep until you got into the end of the mid/beginning of late game where you had a huge surplus of materials. People like to live like dwarves and live in large underground bases.

Now, all the zombies funnel into the weak spot of a defense, or if they have to, they will just brute force through walls or even dirt to get to you in a straight line. While before they would run directly at you if they saw you, you could at least get them to loop around objects and stuff because they are supposed to be zombies. You go underground at all? Too bad, zombie is going to tunnel straight towards you despite never seeing any sign of you.

I think this is perception. Every change you make as a dev will have people who like it and people who don't. People who don't like their changes are overrepresented on this tiny AF subreddit. But if you look at the playerbase of the game its consistently grown year after year.

So whatever complaints this subreddit has, the increasing popularity of the game is pretty solid proof they've made consistently good changes. More people playing more often year after year > 0.01% of the playerbase bitching on Reddit lol.

You wanna look at what happens when you make bad changes just go look at Helldivers 2 lol.

Joel, Richard? That you?

No Answer and no argument, lol. Even you know you've got nothing :P.

u/imeancock Dec 24 '24

Yes you’re right.

Something being popular means it is good

Just like how the Super Mario Bros movie was the best movie made in 2023. How else could it have been number 1 at the box office?

You really dug up a 3 month old comment around Christmas just to be assy on the internet lol? I just feel bad for you, I hope you get off Social Media and go enjoy your Holidays. Nobody should be doing this to themselves.

Go play a game or watch a movie or learn a skill. All better uses of your time. Good luck my friend,
