    Project Zomboid is an open-world isometric survival horror video game in development by British and Canadian independent developer The Indie Stone. The game is set in a post-apocalyptic, zombie-infested world where the player is challenged to survive for as long as possible before inevitably dying.
    'Til Death Us Do Part was a story included in Project Zomboid as its own game mode. It served as the tutorial to introduce new players to the basic concepts of Project Zomboid, like base fortification, scavenging, and fending off hostile undead and survivors.
    In 2013, 'Til Death Us Do Part was removed from the game, along with NPC survivors, with the release of version RC 2.9, due to NPCs being far too buggy. The Indie Stone did not abandon the story and have stated they still have big plans for NPCs and the story of Bob and Kate.

Those who arrive survive. Terminus." leading to a community at the end of the train tracks. When they arrive there, they even see a lady broadcasting this same message on the radio over and over. It's revealed, however, that Terminus is run by cannibals, and the signs are for inviting and trapping their next meals.

      PvE combat in singleplayer with NPCs would be pretty good.

      I'd be suspicious as soon as they mentioned not to bring any guns. Like . . . come on, it's the fucking apocalypse, anyone who's regularly going outside without a gun that hasn't already become zombie chow is most likely either stupidly lucky or good enough at stealth tactics to put Solid Snake to shame.
      And yes, I know most Zomboid vets can take on a reasonably-sized swarm with melee if they've got the stamina to burn, but even then if you have a gun available you're probably going to have it on you for those moments where it's either open fire and _maybe_ die to the horde you just tipped off or hold your fire and die for sure because you can't blast a big enough wedge out of the current problem fast enough to squeeze through and stop yourself from getting cornered and dragged down.

      What I want with NPCs are real broadcasts, by that i mean that they make some (if not all) broadcasts happen in a fisical location of the game (for instance this one). From there you can:
      -Get radio equipment and make simple messages for recruiting people (can call survivors and bandits)
      -Interact with the host at the fisical location. They maybe keep their promises or maybe dont.
      -If the entire base dies they radio stops working and if the base is claimed by other group, then it changes hosts saying "they are gone now" or something of that sort.
      -If they are attacked by humans (or player) they can say they were attacked (maybe host died so change host?) And describe the attacker (bandits should wear distinguishable but not very obvious gear so they can be discovered by the description, but not be the same every time, like leather jackets, red baseball caps, etc). If the player attack, they describe him and other NPCs might be more aggresive because they heard the radio

You don't see people so the radio is a source of comfort (until it's gone), and listening to other people as the world dies is something else. And then the feeling of loneliness is awesome after that. You end up killing so many zombies that you're just alone in the middle of an empty city. The vibes in this game are nuts.

    The game is supposed to start right after the zombies appear, it's mentioned in many of the different transmissions how the apocalypse is slowly realized over the days. That contradicts this one which is presented as already well into the apocalypse with a group of survivors being settled but surrounded by the horde and another group of cannibals have formed AND taken down these survivors after finding out their location from that transmission, all in the span of just a few days.
    My guess is that they had this playing after a month into the game or something like that and nobody was hearing it since all players stop listening to tv and radio after the live broadcasts end after the first week... So they moved it to the start of the game so someone could find it.

      @@DGneoseeker1 Hal's message doesn't seem to be too weird to me. He might not be 100% altruistic, as his last line implies that in reality they just look for a pilot to get them the hell of there, but is open to the idea of atleast sheltering other survivors. "You can trust us, but we won't trust you", is also something safe to say from his position and perspective. He knows himself and the others around him and deems them trustworthy and perhaps they are, but he and the others in his base have no idea who arrives. Could be just a desperate survivor, but could also be some raider. Better to be safe then sorry. Though in the end it seemingly didn't help him either way unless he was somehow able to escape in the chaos that must have happened in the base - either by them actually getting overrun or as perhaps implied attacked by the cannibals.
      Zack's message however is the one I find weirdly phrased. At first he just copies the lines of Hal, making it look like that just someone else from the base is taking over the broadcast as Hal might be unavailable for whatever reason... But it's when the message changes that it turns weird. Overrun? Ok perhaps their fence breached or whatever... But the words "Fresh Blood"? Seems odd. Might be because I'm not a native English speaker, but for me these words would only make sense if they were to recruit them in a military way or something - which is odd when they look for people specially without guns. It makes fresh blood seem more like a freudian slip or an intentionally used phrasing to let people believe they're some sort of military or mercenaries group.

    I don't know if it's because I'm super freaking tired, but something about that second message and channel posters monotone voice is just eerie.

    We need to be able to interact with these events if and when NPCs arrive, as your character, your survivor, if you heard a call of apparant safe haven would you not immediately start hauling ass to get there? The radio needs to serve a greater purpose and be a valuable tool to know the on-goings of survivor communities, and if they need help or no longer exist instead of just words that make your character calm down.

    I would love it if the game had all sorts of story options. As an example, radio broadcasts like this with various groups of survivors calling for people to join, calling for help, warning people away. You can choose to go to any of the locations and what you find changes how the game ends. Or the chopper event. If you get a radio warning that the chopper will be coming in at x day, you can go clear out a landing area, build some sort of signal, and then evac for a quick game over. Either of you getting away, or of you (and maybe the chopper) being dragged down by the zombies called in by the noise before they could lift back up. Or ignore all of that and survive solo and thats the long term sandbox game where you grind skills to survive and build up your own base.

    What gets me is how similar the second message is to the first- to me, it says Zack and his group heard the original message and responded....

    imagine being able to broadcast to npcs to come to you or you need a safe zone or something like that, that would be so cool
