what's your favorite and WHY? it can be for any reason. for look, Resources etc

my Favorite is the Wasteland due to The Atmosphere and How hard it is to set up shop their

 
Hard question, because i value each biome for different reasons. I think the best is snow, where you can gather snow for easy water (you only then need a can or a bottle without the need for a water source), as well as edible berries. Even though the berries guarantee only 1 food, it's low food poisoning chance prevails among other early game foods. Not to mention spending some time searching for them can yield A LOT.

A casual player could choose forest due to low environment hazards, but with first spawn protections and knowledge on how to survive in the cold, i think it's the best place where you can start.

 
Dessert. Food and aloe availability, the ease to see zeds coming, oil which is a late game must and I like vultures for feathers and flesh plus fat.

 
Forest for early game. Lotsa trees, temp is fine. Snow/Desert are nasty until you get the gear to handle the extreme temps.

Wasteland, well, hard to spot mines. Nasty. Once you get the book that lets you walk over them without triggering them....

whole 'nuther story. heh.

 
Q What is your favorite Biome and why?

A: The biomes that I used to be able to fully decorate on how I wanted them to be.

 
forest. base close to trader or border of other biomes.

dont have to be bothered by too hot too cold. that bit of the game is the only bit i would happily see gone.

 
Forest. Minimal clothing requirements, which means I can get by with fiber clothes longer, ready supply of wood, and ready supply of meat.

after you get the "no landmines explode" skill... i understand... but since there are active mines in the rubble... a clear no for me :D

 
Currently testing out starting / Playing in different biomes.

So far I did on Forest, Burnt Land, Desert, Wasteland (A17).

Sidenote: Playing on Difficulty 4 of 5 (Survivalist)

So far I really enjoy playing Desert:

+ Good visibility of zomibes etc

+ Has the occational vulture for feathers, bones, rotting flesh supply (burnt land is a tad extreme, especially if you go by bike ...)

+ Seems to have all kinds of resources

+ (why I like it personally): it is a challenge due to temperatue, wood supply (trees only grow up to 600 hp it seems) and limited water supply.

Additional Info regarding the playstyle:

Default day / Night cycle, loot, airdrops (are marked), Maxzombies 12.

playing 50/ 50 single and co-op with a friend.

 
Loving the wasteland at the moment. I used to avoid it like the plague, but now I got the boxing down, I try to start there. They need a more hardcore biome IMO... Nuclear?

This is why i always liked Desert and Snow. Even during night time you got good visibility due to the textures being way brighter than in the other biomes, as well as the lower amount of plants in the Desert. I don't mind the weather there (too hot or too cold), but i guess if you're unprepared it could get you seriously disadvantaged.

 
My favorite is - Plains.

i think it would be Cool if they Brought it back (in a way)

mix up the Plains and the desert, together

like the Desert could have some areas of Plain grass with some trees from the plains. but in the desert areas also could have Joshua tree around.

plus to me the Plains always looked like a Savanna to me so yeah. and plus Deserts do have some Grassy areas (granted not green or bright but at least some grass) so i think it would be nice to see that around in the desert!

also allow Mountain Lions spawn in the desert. it makes sense!

I think the reason the Plains were removed is purely technical.

Because of the new engine, coupled with distant terrain. It seems difficult to make an open space right now.

So far, they don't want to do this for various reasons.

But what annoys me most is that they talk about it as if - "no one liked the plains and we decided to get rid of them", i think this is a pure lie.

I don't like lies. Nobody likes it. So i'm a Troll. I'm a fair Troll - i troll only liars.

 
Plains all the way, just a serene place. Forest, Desert, Snow, Burnt Forest, Wasteland. I hope devs will bring them back old biomes eventually. I love the variety of landscapes, not necessarily the possible resources and loot that can be found in one place of another.
