Dead is dead. Enforced by mod. No base. Just nomading all over the place. So the ultimate endgoal is stay alive until the end of times ^^ ;)
Cheers

-edit- oh and i stay away from PVP. Absolutely hate it.
Nomading eh? Ha! I LOVE it! It can be a pretty hard life but I bet you uncover tons of map! What mod do you use to enforce the dead is dead?

Thanks for the question.
I came to 7DTD by way of Minecraft, so I'm a builder.

After I take care of the bare necessities, I scout for an ideal location for my base.

Once I pick a spot, it's all about gathering resources (mining, etc.) for the base. I also intersperse some looting/exploration for variety.

I usually spend 10 or so in game days building. Once I feel it's done, I usually put the game away for a good while so I don't burn myself out on it.
Ah I actually played a lot of minecraft prior to seeing this game back sometime in Alpha 7 I think? Geez it seems like it wasn't that long ago. I don't know anymore. That's really neat, I am glad you have fun with it though. Do you do any MP stuff with friends?

My end goal would be to die, yes Im serious. I Want it to get harder and harder and harder until I simply CANT stay alive. Dead is dead and id start over and try to beat my record.
Ah lol now I can respect that. Always striving to beat your record. But what do you track. Number of days? Number of kills? Both? None of these? Or is it the number of dukes you can amass?

I was invited to play with Jax and some other forum members a while back. A great group of players, but I really didn't have time to play at that point, so I lost the thread. Perhaps I will try it out again after A17 drops...

 
lol this all makes me think of one of my favorite flogging molly songs, "If I ever leave this world alive"

Aye, well here's hoping to that chance. I'm sure many would be very happy to have you along for the ride! :)

Thanks for the vote of confidence... I'm already a walking one man apocalypse, but sometimes it's nice to have friends along.

:encouragement:

It really keeps me on edge knowing that dying will reset my progress to zero ;)

Cheers
Oh that's SO cool! I didn't know you could mod! Love learning things about everyone here! :) :) :) Curious if you can help me make a mod, I honestly have no skills but basic xml editing and art...I can't code my way out of a wet paper bag!

Oh so awesome! *HUGS*

LOL not sure how my first post on this went bye bye...but I will say again, 2 times in as many days this forum has made me lose my chocolate milk! Its so worth it...thank you for this sir!

 
No SPRINTING backwards actually. Not no going backwards.

well.... :) are you going to tell me how many days you have gotten to or am I going to have to guess? :)


Well what I wish for and what actually happens is two different things. I wish there was a point where I would eventually die. However, right now if you can survive to max game stage, it really doesn't get any harder and you can go on forever - then its gets boring knowing that you will never die. So, right now I usually give up once the its stops getting harder to survive.. and infact easier.

Disclaimer: I'm not saying im amazing at the game, im saying anyone can survive for infinity if you can survive until the max game stage occurs. I wish death was eventually unavoidable no matter how good you are.

 
@Roland - So... are we ignoring the latest screenshots from MadMole (which have been linked on the forums a few times) or are we jsut not counting them? ...Asking for a friend.

 
Ok, this isn't a "reality" issue so much as it is a "consistency within the games own's reality" issue. If the world is so old that the floors don't support you then how is the canned food still good? How is the gas still good in the pumps and cans? Look, I get it that having the odd floor block here and there be weak is a challenge and fun. My hope tho is they use some balance on the number of them so it isn't just a constant annoyance.
It seems appropriate to me because, at least in the video, loose floorboards only occur in houses that are visibly structurally compromised. It’s not just that the wallpaper is moldy in that room; it’s that half the roof and wall is demolished. In other words it looks like a more violent, chaotic event than slow decay: the kind of damage you see in real life from gas explosions, car crashes, or bombings. So it seems self-consistent for, say, canned food to still be good in spite of the damage.

The problem, and why Roland probably didn’t do it, is because there’s a character limit on each poll option, which unfortunately includes unrendered html and bbcode. That’s why I used a link shortener. Thanks for the suggestion, though.
