*ABOUT 7 DAYS TO DIE*
7 Days to Die is a "Zombie Horde Survival Crafting Game". Yep, that's a lot of words. That's because 7 days to die is a lot of things. It is a zombie horror game. You are being pursued by zombies with the constant threat of a horde in 7 days, nowhere to run, nowhere to hide. They come for you on day 7, and you have that much time to prepare. If you survive that horde, another one is coming on day 14, stronger than before. You must improve your base, become more skilled, or you will lose everything. It is also a crafting game, where you can build your base, weapons, tools, even electrical traps, and turrets to keep you alive through the night. It is also a survival game, where you must scavenge food, mine resources, and manage your general health through diseases and dysentery. What makes 7 Days to Die special isn't just that unique mix of gameplay features I describe above, it is also a "fully destructible world" based on voxel technology. You can dig anywhere, destroy anything, in a true sandbox environment. The replay-ability is near infinite, limited only to your imagination and gluttony for punishment. There are multitudes of settings for you to customize your experience to make it as tough, or as creative as you wish. 7 Days to Die is also created with multiplayer in mind. You can collaborate in teams, or strike out on your own as a lone wolf. you can form alliances, group up for the shared experience, or attack other players on PVP servers for the ultimate survival challenge. Will you be the member or a community, or a threat from afar? The many, many choices are yours.
I commend you on doing a video for us while dealing with the flu. We definitely appreciate it! Get some rest and hope you feel better soon
I'm much better now! Ideally the next episodes will have my good senses, and aim, back where they should be lol
'Can we just be done now?!' lol
Great episode, nicely done!
Thanks! I was honestly thought people were going to give me grief over the horde base not performing in its current state, most folks just enjoyed the chaos
I honestly don't see how you could not only record a video but also perform THAT well while dealing with the flu. Not to mention family and other work responsibilities and such. Hats off to ya. I turn into a little baby when I'm sick lol I know it's been a little over a week since recording this so I'm hoping you are feeling better. I like to binge watch your series so I'm playing catch up right now while feeling under the weather myself. You rock Genosis!
My body was weak, but my gamer mind persisted lol. Yeah I curled into the fetal position after this recording.
LOL stalkers and undead bears first bloodmoon. Nice job!
That was damned insane lol. I am glad I was ready this time, I would have been toast otherwise
A floor is important. Horde bases should not look like bachelor pads after a weekend of drinking :)
Right? Can't entertain guests with dirty floors
Df doing what DF does best. You survive which always a win
ha yep, I had little right to, but we made it work
OMG I am always so excited for your horde nights cause they never fail to deliver. And this one totally did as well THOUGHT I never asked for daylight so much in one episode. This horde night was nuts and as I watched the hit points go down I'm yelling is it morning yet. Incredible episode as always Gen. I really hope you feel better soon. Lots of warm fluids and rest.
lol thanks, and yeah I am much better now! I was tempted to rerecord this since my synapses weren't firing, but it worked out in an entertaining way at least :P
@@Genosis i LOVED this horde night. Trust me very suspenseful and one of your best. Well at least a horde night not that you almost bit the big one. you had luck on your side
Thats one thing about being married, if you catch the flue or cold, you always blame the Mrs.
Oh I 100% do. Next time we're sleeping in separate beds if she coughs
@Genosis Daph is going to see this look at you and cough.. wearing that lil outfit you love.. 😆 🤣 😂
@@Genosis nice one lol
I hope you feel better soon. Thanks for making a episode while being sick!
Holy fudging moocowy that was a wild horde night!
I did what I could lol but yeah that base was not ready
@@Genosis More impressive you pulled it off without a base. it were a beautiful chaos :D
I think you're right about the night stalker..the look more spikey ?!🤣 I guess we saw all saw it coming, DF-horde in this base, was to early😁 thx for putting out episodes , even though you're sick🤜🤛
Yeah the base wasn't ready, but I am going to make sure it will be next time!
That was an edge of your seat horde night. Even sick as a dog you handled that well.
Looks like you need some electrical fencing on that column to slow them down for headshots or a semi auto sniper rifle.
Yep, this base doesn't work without the wires and I should have known better lol
Yes, keep the bicycle. Remember that powered vehicles dont work after 6pm on horde nights (unless its changed).
Right, right.. I should keep the bike on me if I am out on horde days, which I shouldn't be either way :P
That horde night sucked; for you lol. I, on the other hand, loved it. Hilarious!
Hah I think people just enjoy my suffering, my wife has that in common as well!
Don’t forget snares and beehives too
Yep, I will be setting those up very soon
Awesome horde night man
Keep the content flowing and yes flu sucks
Thanks! And yeah I am glad I saw the flu coming and recorded a bunch before it hit me too bad lol
First horde night is always cursed unless you are a pro minmaxxer. You just cant get far enough tech wise to build a safe enough horde base with satisfactory weapons to take stuff down. Like every video seems to go this way, with the player hiding on the roof of some place waiting out the night. Its the most brutal part of the mod imo. But you lived! And thats what matters. The weapon upgrade was a nice bonus. Like double damage.
Yeah I shouldn't have even attempted this with a fresh build relying on wires that I didn't have lol.
DF horde nights always deliver!
lol yes they do. I shouldn't have even tried this without wires
For a first horde, that was nuts. Hope you're feeling better soon :)
Much better now!
I'm a big fan of molotovs and flaming arrows for the first few hordes. Once you find a beaker you can craft grain alcohol on the campfire making molotovs cheap.
Oh yes, I had a handful, obviously not enough lol
@Genosis since I found out that flaming arrows have a burst effect when they hit a block instead of a Z I've been kind of obsessed with them for crowd control. Iron Arrow Head, fat, 2 gun powder and some cloth and a whole crowd gets lit up. Recipe is unlocked by bow crafting 2.
With it not being like completely done I didn’t expect it to last long. It lasted longer than I thought though. But hey you survived! Which is the name of the game so you can’t be too mad at it.
lol yeah, that base was in no means ready. As usual, I will double down next week!
@ it wasn’t. But as soon as you get it ready it’s going to do what you want it to.
you say awful, i say AWESOME you were soooo close to death, lolz best Horde night vid from you in a long time
hah glad you enjoyed it; I think like my wife folks find it less fun when things go to plan
I would like to suggest creating a base elevated from the ground but with the ditch so the raised supports don't attack so far I've had excellent results like this
I'm going to have a big ol trench soon enough, so elevation won't be an issue!
@@Genosis As you prefer, Uncle Geno, mine was just a suggestion, in fact I feel good about being in heaven with the angels
Get Well
I'm good now though finally, but here I was a mess lol
Being sick and games don't always mix well lol but as long as you have fun, it's all that matters! Got a question for ya, Gen! I noticed you put rock/metal music on for horde, but what kind of music do you like?
Rock/metal is definitely my jam; I'm usually listening to it while I code at work
@Genosis nice, nothing vibes with me more than Trivium, Disturbed or Linkin Park. Grew up in the 90's, remember blasting Hybrid Theory on my walkman during the bus ride home from school.
@ ah yes I remember those albums well
remember u get less health till u get lots of points into science skill tree. u might need more redundancies than just poundy they get even harder from here on out cant wait to see what u can do.
Yeah I will have to take it more seriously lol
The lower crouch is from 1 block crouch mechanics. As much as I love 1 block crouch I hate that it does that.
1 block crouch has been around a while, but weird it never did that to the hatch
@@Genosis Yeah, it's cause of the new player model. When you crouch and then move or aim down sights it pulls your pov down in adjustment.
Well, that could have gone better but at least you survived. Barely. :D
Does DF have fire mod as default? I've used wood clad cobblestone pathways in The Wasteland mod's early hordes, helps a ton when zombies and especially dire wolves get soften a bit by fire. Probably won't help much against DF's radiated zombies though but might be worth testing in case it has the fire mod. :)
Good stuff as always. :)
lol yeah the base wasn't ready for a horde, let alone a DF horde. I misjudged the resiliency of the barbed wire. That stuff just evaporated like cotton candy.
And yeah according to the DF settings, look like fire mod is a built in feature. I have headshots only and fire spreading enabled.
@@Genosis Yeah, barbed wire and spike traps are great but will get destroyed really fast, hopping blocks/poles tend to last much longer.
You can get the lathe machine in the coal mine mill located
a lathe in a coal mine? Hmm I will keep an eye out
You would have been better off using the Jacobs residence, take out all access to the attic and ride it out that way or just pick any three story house and ride it out up in the attic or on a roof.
I'm 0% surprised that horde night went down like that. Just a single hatch with no extra padding would probably fail in vanilla too. Should've given yourself a way in and out via ladders on the side and then put in some kind of wall blocking the bottom half with plates on front of them to increase their sturdiness
Yep, I was hoping the barbed fences wouldn't immediately get wiped out, and I definitely didn't have the stopping power to kill them before bad things. Even with a lever action, it might have been sketchy.
Though, just imagine how much better next week is going to be!
@@Genosis oh for sure! I'm watching this whole series, don't you worry. I'm excited to see you improve on it.
I just knew from my own failures, that resulted in death, what was coming. lol
In DF building out of Cobble is only marginally better than building out of butter...
This is accurate
I think the other barbed wire is just meant to slow them down and that's all. Have not used it DF. I think on live it does that though.
The other barbed wire doesn't really exist on live, in a craftable fashion anyhow. I used to be able to rotate it on the ground but looks like that doesn't work anymore
7:03 there was a tactical rifle in the box......
Yep, an item I'm forbidden to use in this playthrough. It's all assassin-type weapons. (knives, sniper rifle, bow, silenced pistol, etc). That would have made a sizable difference though lol
That was a bit close 🤣
Oh yeah, I was a breath away from biting in a couple times lol
Those weird stragglers that hang back during horde night. My take is it has something to do with frame rate or something performance wise cuz whenever i play 64 i get it alot worse than you had in this one. my comp is struggling lately but also i'm shit at computers so wcyd but i also like to play first person games with the controller plugged in so maybe that dont help. whenever id shoot a zombie currently at my horde base id look back to the stragglers and see one of them sprinting toward the base to what seemed like taking its place for the 1 i just killed. what chu think gen?
That sounds about right; when I did Grover high the 2nd time, the AI went all wonky as well
DF is fucking brutal. Well done for surviving!
Thanks! And yeah I shouldn't have even attempted at relying on the base in the state it was. The design requires electricity :P
@Genosis Hahaha!
Where is the heart rate monitor when you need one? 😀 I’m in awe of how calm you remain in stressful situations.
I may have to start those again lol
Genosis of the close calls..😅
Seat of my pants is how I get anywhere man lol
Wonder how many points your rifle skill went up after all that.
A few I think it was, I believe I look at it in the next episode
Okay..so Darkness Falls doesn't give a singular F about horde bases.
and apparently it doesn't care if you progress either. LOL!
DF is a cruel mistress. Pretty sure I dated her before
@@Genosis LOL!!
I wasn't expecting the base to last all night as this mod is nasty. Was not expecting it to fold like a cheap suit. Sorry to see that.
lol yeah it wasn't even remotely ready. I needed wires to make it work
Genosis the assassin of darkness falls
common flu the assassin of Genosis
ha this is not untrue
Couldn't you have crafted the dirtbike over the minibike
Nope, dirt bike is behind the mechanic class now
RESET THE CLOCK!
Hmm this clock would be a cool addition to the fire mod if it was automatic
Awful horde indeed.. But good for entertainment purposes!
That's why I kept it lol. I was debating on rerecording when I didn't feel like turd, but hey it was interesting
Leee-ver action -- you from England or something?? 'round here its 'leh-ver' lol!
Love-her or leever!
I had a sense of deja-vu with your horde fight - you had built that same kind of base before and they tore it down almost completely. It was not a jolly good show.
When you're in the early game and you don't have any concrete blocks, you can use a land claim block to have at least one block with 5000 hit points.
Another thing is to pay attention to traders to see if they're selling any concrete mix - Joel is usually pretty good at having some in stock. You can also salvage a few steel ingots -- you only need just a hand full of tougher blocks when you're making a murder hole-type of corridor base.
And also you didn't have no roof over your head - they probably would have stacked up and went over your measly 2-block high wall with no roof. That would have been really bad - they probably would have been able to pin you in place! Thank God that didn't happen.
Probably be better for the next horde to repair up the place next door so if you need to bail out again you'll be good over there.
Like put some supplies over there on the rooftop - medical and food. Whenever I crank up the difficulty I basically make myself more than one place to run to just in case I get reamed.
Well, being Canadian we're still part of the commonwealth so.. lol sort of?
And I had this base in sniper of darknessfalls and it went much better, but I did have electric fencing :P
Didn't you increase the difficulty
It's on warrior 32 horde with headshots only
Looks like my first comment got deleted, again. This has been happening with increasing frequency lately, and I don't know why. I usually make an effort to avoid offensive language, and I no longer add links, precisely to avoid having my comments deleted.
Any way, good job surviving, it was a really close call.
Weird, nothing in my filter. And thanks, people seem to love the episodes where everything goes to hell lol
@Genosis Yeah, I dunno why it happens.
In the original comment, I suggested that to help with recovery, you should search for "lena katina mr saxobeat".
It's very different from what I usually listen to, but well worth an exception.
@Genosis Okay, this is interesting. Earlier today, I replied to your comment. That reply is now gone.
In it, I tried to recommend a music video I've found, but I didn't post a link or anything, I just mentioned a name and title.
To the best of my understanding, that isn't against any rules. I don't understand.
This IS 7D2D...
we know 10 mins after ya craft that much needed lever,
the game will make all your effort completely moot
by giving ya 2 or 3 higher tier versions in the next Car/Truck/Loot Drops or random sports bags ya find laying in the middle of nowhere.
Yep that sounds about right. Ah well, even if it did give me another one I could at least merge them or use them as repairs :P
