Couldn't agree more. I'm playing old style (traders, but no quests) and having tons of fun. Then I dropped loot to 50%, and it's a very nice addition because you will have a hard time getting some stuff like wrenches. People complain a lot, but a few setting changes can make the game a lot more...

It may be a bit trickier early game (I'm playing solo and got demolishers on the 3rd horde night), but as soon as you progress, horde nights will be even easier than what we had in 1.1. As I said in another thread: it should be a setting, not mandatory.

Yeah, I agree: this should be a setting, not "mandatory". I don't think it's a good idea spawning demolishers, because you have 64 max alive in settings and game will only spawn 30 zombies per wave in such low GS. Not to mention, I don't think demolishers should be set off by other zombies...

It's 1.2 that's changing blood moon hordes (1.1 was pretty much like before and I got demolisher by day 21, but my horde defence was built in snow, so my GS was close 200). Currently playthrough is very slow because I'm playing 25% loot and no traders that's a lot harder to get vehicles books to...

I'm always playing solo and 64 zombies. I do recall about the change "zombies per player", but didn't know the 64 setup could increase difficulty. That makes sense, because I can kill them very fast due to explosives (as I mentioned, before 1 am it was over and I managed to kill 605 zombies)...

Yes, GS 88 and forest biome. I'm playing 25% loot, no loot respawn and no traders, so still couldn't get bicycle to speed up progress. Yeah, I know it would be over GS 200 in snow/wasteland, but something was off: I'm playing vanilla, no mods at all, therefore, it was way too soon for...

Last night was my 3rd horde night and GS 88, but last wave a bit weird (to say the least). As fas as I know, at GS 88 it should be: <gamestage stage="85">             <spawn group="feralHordeStageGS74" num="120" maxAlive="28" duration="2" interval="12"/>             <spawn...

I really doubt they would go full VR for the sequel because there are tons of people like me that must stay away from that (I suffer from labyrinthitis).

Couldn't agree more. I build the same horde defence since A16: an electrified pit (there is ladders to the pit), support pillars for my cage inside and I kill them with pipe bombs and grenades. That's it. I don't like cheese bases and I don't need it.

Difficulty is a major player because warrior and above zombies will hit harder and harder (I don't play below survivalist) that's why, imo, screamers should not be able to be spawned if a T5/T6 infested is active. Not to mention, I always go feral sense on all the time, so yeah, screamers are a...

Try it as a solo player, then came back here and tell me "it was a lot of fun". I have no problem with the increased spawning rate, but screamers should not be allowed to spawn if a T5/T6 infested quest is active.

Am I cherry picking? Stop BS, man. Your question was "about spawn and horde night not lasting all night". Now you are adding a lot of stuff to change original question. So yeah, don't say is cherry picking because you are the one changing info all the time. What I said: "hordes don't last all...

Nobody is cherry picking in here, you are the one believing "hordes last all night" and that's simply not true. It's pretty clear you're are not killing fast enough and you are nerfing waves. As I mentioned before at GS 123 you should get: <gamestage stage="121">             <spawn...

Your numbers are way off. You can't reach GS571 by day 14 and by setting low numbers like 16 and 32 max alive it's pretty obviously you are going to need more time to exhaust hordes. Not mention, I'm playing 1.0 as I mentioned before and no hordes lasted all night. The main "problem": you are...

Let me add some info. I'm currently on second playthrough day 49 (didn't take on the horde yet), so hordes 7 through 42 were as follow: day 7 - 474 zombies day 14 - 460 zombies day 21 - 579 zombies day 28 - 690 zombies (gamestage 172) day 35 - 808 zombies (gamestage 198) day 42 - 1139...
