QOTW: What's one of your fondest memories you remember when you first started playing 7 Days to Die?

At the time, I had just come from ten years of Guild Wars 1, i was a beta tester for that game up untill i left it, —Faction PvP, guild battles, coordinated teams, builds, counters, positioning, and actual competitive fighting.

Compared with that, 7 Days to Die PvP felt extremely basic. There was much less structure, balance, or tactical depth. What it did have was freedom. You could infiltrate communities, study players, find weaknesses, raid bases, destroy months of work, and create your own conflict.

So blowing up that compound was not really about winning a balanced fight. It was me testing what this new sandbox allowed—and discovering that the strongest part of 7D2D PvP was never the combat system. It was what real players could do to each other.

Ah, so you are a griefer. Perfect example of why the majority of people play PVE, to avoid people like you. Would think a PVPer wouldn't even get any enjoyment out of destroying something without any gain or resistance. No wonder you ended up having to start your own server.
 
When I first started playing back in Alpha 10, I was like 13 or 14 and absolutely terrified of the zombies. Some friends (for some reason they were all like 10–20 years older than me and must have died of old age by now) invited me to their server and told me to run to their shared marker where they'd dug a base into the side of a cliff. I had no idea what was going on, I just ran for my life for thousands of blocks. When I finally got there, one of them gave me a weapon and told me to come loot with him... at night. I thought he was completely insane, and I nearly ■■■■ myself when a single zombie came sprinting at me. But I enjoyed the way he played the game. He was more of a nomad, only coming to the base to drop off his ■■■■, he found building bases boring and didn't like being "safe". He would wander off for many kilometers, took me days to reach him sometimes. Unfortunately we don't have infinite worlds anymore though, but not sure if the current game needs that with the overabundance of loot. But yeah I feel like I learned a lot about the game from him, even today I still play like he does, just place some storage somewhere and empty entire towns of loot, only worrying about defenses at the last moment. :)
 
Playing since A4........The thrill of setting up a base in a city building and having zombies wars for 45 minutes using every weapon and bit of ammo we had until we were down to melee weapons when dawn broke. And the anticipation of the next content drop.....updates now dont have the same feeling. It was a real zombie survival game back then with so much more content!!!
