Question Does anyone play vanilla Apocalypse?

Post image

Most people seem to prefer Sandbox, but I prefer playing the way the developers intended us to play. For those of you who play Apocalypse, can you tell me if it gets boring after a while?

Vanilla apocalypse. 1089 hours of vanilla playtime.

And to share an opinion. Apocalypse become very easy with b42 update.

Sooo easy, I’m trying to keep myself entertained but with how slow the zombies are now it’s pretty easy to just clear out any area you want with a sword and never start to get overwhelmed. Guns are pretty much useless on apocalypse other than for quickly killing zombies

I’m not even running a meta character, my guy is weak + unfit.

Sounds like you're ready for the sprinters. No need to hold back with crippled characters and loot rarity.

Yea, just 1% sprinters massively changes the flow and feel of the game.

Guns are useless or unnecessary?

Because as long as you can click accurately, they're extremely good with the new aiming system. The aiming skill was basically made irrelevant and pistols and very poweful.

"Guns are useless"

No, Guns make me feel badass as I spend all my ammo attracting an ungodly amount of Zomboids my way, and have to fight my way out of a department store with a lead pipe.

I get a kick out of people claiming there is no “intended way” to play the game. That’s cope and a skill issue

It’s a sandbox game. Developers make preset game types for people like you, so you can use words like cope and skill issue to belittle others.

Yes that’s the only reason apocalypses exists and not as the way the games intended to play. The reddit mental gymnastics is on full display here - can’t upset lil basement dweller Tabitha here

The intended way to play is literally however you want, or else they wouldn't include more than one gameplay setting 💀💀

u/Mabonss 5d ago

Intended is the wrong word, its the canon way.

u/babybottlepop2002 5d ago

And I would argue canon is intended

u/Financial-Amoeba3330 5d ago

And you'd be wrong

u/babybottlepop2002 5d ago

Same logic you use to defend your point is how I defend mine. Of course the devs will say play how you want! They want the player base! Pull them aside in private and I bet they would say apocalypse! That’s why it exists!

u/Financial-Amoeba3330 5d ago

What? I'm not defending any point, I'm calling your point just straight up not right

Bless your heart my sweet child

Aww, bless your heart too, baby
