I'm watching this as I work, and it's such an interesting feeling to realise I can spend hours listening to someone's voice without ever needing a break. It kinda of brings me peace. It's nice, thank you
Oh how sad you're at work and you don't need a break anymore. Yet people like me are the poor bastards stuck in 112 degree heat working outside in summer with No phones man I feel sorry for you.
You don't seem to comprehend zomboid then. You're specifically made to die. And most the time you'll die of boredom once you have 500 hours and 3 years of experience.
@@NSWSPIRITWOLF I think he died in 201-16 when he first went to LV, so he deleted the footage, used cheatmenu to set all of his skills back, got all of his loot back, and then deleted the footage and lied about it being corrupted
After seeing so many different "100 days" playthroughs. This is easily on the top. Calm, no exaggeration and no blasting random music or screaming. This is way better than what I have seen so far. You also explain whats going on so much better than others, so you dont have to watch the video to know whats going on 24/7. Made me fall asleep with your calm voice, 11/10 :)
Those other videos are directed at children. I know my great nephew loves the loud random guys doing stuff. If you make a video aimed towards adults then children will get bored right away. Kids under 10 don't really grasp mechanics and strategy.
I hate this one for this very exact reason. It's so unbelievably lifeless. The audio for part 1 he made me not give a fuck about anything he was doing. Unironically the older fucked up audio was better cause his script had some personality.
I can just imagine that if other survivors came across your old bases they'd be like who would leave a safe and self efficient location My only answer would be to do the lords work of thinning the horde
Yh like a group of survivors see them smoke from one of the fire wondering why it started they head that way then see another one but noticed it’s at a different location from the first. They became so happy thinking they found other survivors and a big group too or the military trying to combat the zombies. They make it to town and start seeing most of it burned down bullet shell every where and so many zombies dead they think they found salvation but notice how no one’s around they start looking for the base they find crashed car that happened recently they start to lose hope a bit but find the base and hope come back before fading again. For the base is abandoned a big strong base abandoned they start to wonder why and start looking for any reason why but start noticing there’s not a lot of beds only one and most of the stuff is for one person. And they ask what kind of person could do all this by them selves
Had to re-upload this video due to a couple seconds of audio being copyright claimed, causing me to have to remove the full 3 hour video (ridiculous to have to pull a 3 hr video over seconds of audio...) Anyways, I hope you enjoy the video as much as I enjoyed making this
Bruh. . . Imma still rewatch it cuz that sucks. (Also I don't remember what happened and the next one is coming soon so I gotta get a refresher) (Also part two: Im bored as fuck rn.)
Recently discovered your channel through this video! Been slowly making my way through it every night, was devastated when I'd saw it removed! (I know you do individual 100 days videos, I just prefer watching them in bulk like this!)
An over 3-hour video... has to be reuploaded... because of less than ten seconds of a copyrighted song. Good grief... Well, maybe you'll get a few more viewers to rewatch due to that.
This deserves so much more attention. I am rarely able to focus on videos even 30 minutes long, but this video has kept my attention for the entire three hours. You are a great narrator who knows how to keep an audience engaged, keep up the good work! :)
40:56 "Was this playthrough even worth continuing?" That question catches me every run of mine. Worse than dying when I left it at the wrong door by a single zombie waiting out of my car.
Once I tried the challenge of "all negative traits" I had a character with whom I went through a literal hell to survive, I got a big backpack, quite a lot of loot and I managed to reach a safe zone without zombies and with a house One day I asked myself the question "do I really need to continue?" If I go outside for some loot I will die because my character is very weak and I don't want to stay watering potatoes all my life either I already had it all with a character who had nothing, I stopped playing and eventually deleted the save, I like to imagine that this character lived a good life
Ok, you not screaming or overreacting+ambient music is perfect Now I'm gonna be putting your vids on autoplay while grinding in games and when I go CLEEP You deserve these views and hopefully the algorithm blesses you
As soon as you said “turn on PZ and play alongside me for the next few hours” I instantly stood up, exclaimed “FUCK YEA”, made snacks and booted it up.
The descent into madness and the # of totaled cars has got me laughing in a good way. It's like watching a holo recording of a diary in action spliced up quite nicely and digestable to listen or view. Good work; you got my like before i hit an hour in and i'm still going. I'm going to guess you've totaled 12 cars at least before this video ends.
i sat through that video from start to end. first time i've done that with any video without pausing. probably won't be doing that for a while as concentrating on certain things like this can be a strain unless I think it's worth it. Here's the kudos; ADHD is a bitch but I saw it to the end as I personally looked at this to see what i could learn once I pick up Zomboid again. THe lesson i took from this is don't try half of what you did on my end as i saw alot of moments where you were just a cunt hair's breath from just being game ended. Good job; i honestly am looking foward to more of your work.
Even with all the issues you had editing and stuff i really appreciate the video, just the dedication to do this got me, really enjoying the video so far, glad you had the courage to finish the project, like PZ skills, it only gets better after repetition!
I love to watch PZ videos but barely play the game haha. I died in two seconds after leaving my house and coming back inside with a zombie that had spawned in it.
I honestly get leaving a base behind. The only real goal of the game is don't die. So my personal goal is to just have bases and safe houses all over the place. I'll slowly reclaim the map until it's all mine.
I enjoy this play through so much that id chip in a few bucks a month to see you do another long series like this if you were willing. Maybe with different mods or with friends if that was somehow possible to keep it fresh for u? idk. Either way thx for the great content my guy!
my first successful character died after 60 days, exactly 5 hours after eating a slightly overcooked steak, as i didnt know that the game treats burnt food the same as rottsn ones
man i randomly found this video going down a rabbit hole on youtube tonight , and let me say. what an absolute treasure. god tier content sir , well done
Just like Jesse Eisenberg's character (Mike Powell) in the movie American Ultra, "this one tree has been sitting in this one place not doing anything until tonight when it, like, stopped the car. " A fitting end to each of the cars.
Hey man! I absolutely adore your playthrough! Currently watching through day 339. I think you might already know this by know, buuuuut you can plaster your wooden walls, which then let you to paint them. I forgot the correct way, but I think you can plaster lvl 3 wooden walls with a bucket of water and a bag of plaster. I hope it helps! In the meantime, I'll keep binging your content, since your editing + the commentary is really enjoyable ^^
When I first saw your video, I thought to myself that there's no way I would watch all of it.. I'll only watch 10 mins, to see what this is about. But your storytelling was so entertaining, I actually kept watching! Keep up the good work!
I know I’m a bit late, but if you see this. Thanks a lot for your effort. I’ve had a few terrible weeks, and videos like this really help put my mind ease when night comes. Cheers, good luck on your future endeavors. All the best.
Cool video, my friends and I had made a base at the rosewood firehall, and one morning we awoke to multiple explosions going off, our generators had given up the ghost and gone nuclear and set fire to our base. We ended up moving to the prison. Take care of your generators folks!
I just discovered pz and watching this is making me further realise its the game I've always been looking for and at the same time I'm learning so much
1:50:00 Just for reference - the fastest, though dumb way of leveling first aid is breaking glass. Them walk over it barefoot. You basically guaranteed to get 2 wounds and glass fragments lodged. Take case of those wounds and walk right back over the glass. Fresh wounds, fresh XP. You do need to have the option to stay at home for a few days after it because till your feet heal properly you are a crawling zombie-chow...
People often don't know that at lvl 5 electric you can build battery connectors by right clicking on any lamp using electronic scrap. Add a battery and you have a battery power lamp, great for minor safehouses w/o generators.
I usually don't like these kinds of games but I got pz last weekend and now I'm working my 8hrs, coming home, working on my skills and base, going to sleep, and playing pz before work. Im so addicted and your content makes playing it so much more fun
My last super long run, I was in that Riverside town (or whatever it's called) and used the post office as my main base. Sealed off the doors and windows with metal sheets on both sides. I also took out the stairs and put sheets in various windows to get in and out. I was able to basically clear out the city from there, and amass a huge stockpile. I cleared out the roof and did farming there. So I was basically self sufficient, and the zombies were no threat at all at that point.
1:18.00 "violating the Geneva convention" 1. It only applies to humans 2. you did not use a .50 cal or higher, Armour piercing rounds, depleted uranium rounds, white phosphorus, etc. They should add those to the game at the military base. Being i was in the war, an infantryman in the army, we where briefed on all that months prior to deployment. Once there, it all went out the window. i carried a Barret .50 for a while. great gun, told it was for "vehicles" but it was used for people or whatever the need of the platoon was. Think taking down thick mud brick walls. The depleted uranium rounds for the .50 cal sniper where used as well. had to switch out the barrel, and the rounds look well, they look mean. Armour piercing was standard issue. Black tip rounds, not the green tip ones. The insurgents, well, they did not wear a country's uniform so the Geneva convention did not apply to them. Never played this game, but i find it highly enjoyable watching the strategies of other people, how they think out of the box. this game, it fulfills that need and its based on my favorite movies, a zombie apoc. Good work, i like what you did.
Well done. Tips galore and commentary for what to do and not to do. This is a must watch for anyone trying to succeed in Project Zomboid! (spoiler below) Even for 500 days survived, three hours was a bit much to watch it all in one sitting. Even with regular bathroom breaks, there was so much information to take in. I may have to watch this again and take notes. Again, well done; keep up the great content. Your play-style seems mostly well thought out and methodical, while keeping the commentary interesting. Execution of your plans as you move from town to town helped me realize staying in one place was causing the most issues for my game play. ie I should consider using cars more often After completing this challenge, do you have any more challenges you want to complete? Would adding friends to the 'mix' help with any of the challenges you found difficult? I guess a couple more questions (for @thatguypredz or others): Is it better to be well fed/not thirsty before going to bed or after you wake up? Before water runs out, what items did you focus on to get the most backup fresh water? Do you need to wash your clothes and equipment constantly or just toss it when you find something with better protection vs scratches/weather/etc? I died on my first five or so characters in an attempt to figure out the game before looking into the wiki or youtube for help. What resources (websites/etc) have you used most often for figuring out how to complete a particular accomplishment/goal? Which is your favorite starting area/play style: Wilderness (woods with river access), housing in a town, going combat-only play style or other? spoiler: ie no jumping off buildings, which may break bones. It seems crazy to me that in all the zombie fights you got into, that's what almost killed you. 🥲
The video is nice, but wish you could...like..explain everything like a storyline, how you did in that 300 days series, it would have given the video a bit of life❤
Just got the game last night and man this video really opened me up to the opportunities I have in store and OH man being able to actually place your items and decorate that just makes me even more excited
The fact that at 2:00:53 the moment he says "I decided to try my hand at cooking." I literally was thinking to myself, "I swear to god if he plays the it's so good and tasty meme I am going to have to log in and subscribe to this man." Then the meme played and my soul sang hallelujah. You earned my sub, this video is so well made btw I cannot imagine how long this took to put together!
I just found your content, and the game itself. You have a very ASMR feel with these videos. No crazy noises, no active wild over acting. Really nice. Gonna stick around.
I intuitively skipped the intro, then went back. And I'm now subscribing, I've watched 73 seconds total of this video. Fantastic job man, appreciate the effort and the short and consise intro. This is what good content is all about.
The build 42 (new update) will add for the first times animals in game. Technically, there are animals but they are considered as objects. You'll never see an animal wander on the map. You find dead mouses in trashcans, dead rabbits rabbits if you trap them or insects when doing the search thing (with the eye). Well, this will change in this huge upstate which is going to be the biggest update yet for this game. Cows, pigs, chickens, sheep. They will be able to breed and make babies. All of them will be different, their own genitic stuff, colour's races for cows as an example. Zombies will be attracted to their sounds bit won't kill them. That's what I love about this game, you have do many things you can do, it's endless. You can stay in town or decide to clear an area in the country side and live in a farm. (useful for the winter) Birds will be added too, now you'll see mouses, rats near trashes, in houses sometimes looking for food. Deers will also be added. We don't have much information on them and of course bears. They will probably be a threat to the player, and wander in forest areas but might come near or inside cities. Rabbits, squirrels too. This update is huge but there are so much more yet to come like camping objects. Quit useful after everything shut off. And more vhs, more books. Stories lore in some abandoned houses with pictures, notes ect.
Ben Dover has the most incredible luck I have ever seen. My current strongest survivor only made it 70 days before getting her hand nommed on, and that was from less insane circumstances than Ben goes through.
Nice video. Watching this made me feel as if I played and learned with you. Killed any drive I had to buying PZ in the process lol. Glad you enjoy it as much as you do though. Enjoy life brotha 🤙
2:02:17 had me racing to my computer to turn off whatever noise was to come next, only to realise it was your video... not a hidden tab I'd forgotten about. Curse you and your good video!
the bow gets super op at high level, never actually manually leveled it though so that might defeat the purpose Compound bow is also ups the damage its not a horde killing weapon, its a stealth weapon best paired with sneaking
Very rare I would stick around for things like this but I'm glad you didn't violate my ears with screaming, royalty free EDM, all those editing tricks to keep a kid's attention. I'm actually invested.
I'm glad this kinda thing is possible because I wanted to do something a lot like this in this game. Also these long form videos are nice since I'm recovering from surgery
Alternate Title: ThatGuyPredz wrecks cars for 03:15:31. Also baseball is the worst Loved the whole vid. You kept me entertained the whole time especially the MS Paint parts. Looking forward for the rest of the series
watching you play this game has really helped me with playing the game as a new player. I’ve gone from dying within minutes to killing 60 zombies and lasting at least a few days 😂 Still not exactly good but but making progress, keep up the good work man
I only breafly heard about this game a couple of weeks ago. But wow this series took me by surprise! Pretty much watched it in on sitting. Cannot wait for the whole 1000 days (: Keep up the amazing work!
Finnay my first good run survived 12 days, Altough still alive (I most of the time die at day 3) I used a mod for npcs just to see my first member of the group getting teared apart when I was savaging and a z smashed a window setting off a alarm 😔 You will be remembered Stuart...
i tried to play this game like a year ago and it was ROUGH, but watching someone whos actually competent at the game is so satisfying and nice, weirdly enough kinda like rust in a way
This is badass! I bought PZ from seeing videos on UA-cam. Not something I'd normally do, but it looks like an experience not to be missed. A true gamer's game. Is 500 hours in game, 50 hours in realtime? Or is there some kind of multiplier?
It's customizable, a day in PZ(assuming you don't sleep) is, by default, 1 hour irl. It's customizable so you can have 1 day in game be 1 day irl, but stats and etc won't make sense.
Best way to describe it is if the walking dead was an actually good show and then was turned into a game I guess, it’s something you have to play to actually experience
Imagine Sims 1 with zombies, guns and full motion control. It's obviously a bit more nuanced than that but the game is pretty good. I'll tell you right now because I've never seen anyone mention it, be careful with mods. Only add one to your game at a time because they can totally brick your game. Also some mods only work with certain builds. There's an npc mod that's at the top of the most subbed list that hasn't worked in an extremely long time, "survivors 2 in 1" is the new and working version. The community specifically on reddit is terrible when it comes to asking for help. Like I said earlier the game is great and I'm having a lot of fun with it currently played about a hundred hours but unfortunately nobody talks about the bad so hopefully you or someone else gained so insight
I got a like on my original comment and wanted to say the mod I mentioned "2 in 1 survivors" is no longer being worked on. It appears the mod author has abandoned their project. This is another common occurrence due to the way the code is for the game. Everytime there is a major update, the code is changed so significantly that mods tend to break. As you can probably imagine this is incredibly frustrating for everyone especially the mod authors. Don't worry so much though because there's always someone around to pick the project back up eventually
I would just like to say thank you for posting this. I have trouble sleeping and have never had something that can help me much. However, this has helped me fall asleep for about 2 weeks!
interesting to see different playstyles, I usually go with securing 2 or 3 stashes, before making a base with (Example in muldraugh 1 in residential rich area 1 at cabin close to food market, 1 between them, on big house on the angle, north close to farm a 2 store house, and 1 last house north) And kill everything around my stashes and sterilise 100 or 200 ripped sheets for each strash before water and electricity goes down. search and store essential stuff on each stash, while searching for a backpack before moving to far away. I usually dont read books until I have secure enough books and basic stuff (except if I find tailoring,cooking,carpentry), stone axe ingredients, tailoting ingredients on my stashes and as many empty bottles pots, sauce pots, as I can, because i can die at any moment if I dont have "safe places" After this is done is just clean routes and chop tons of trees to make bases, and level up carpentry never disassemble anything without having carpentry books for fast leveling and watch Life and Living TV at 6:00 and 18:00 for ez first levels. just need to get a sledghammer first, and start to connect houses on rich residential area and make 1 base there, 1 base pond far north. on other cities i follow kind of the same pattern just make stashes not to close from dense areas, and clean and disperse zeds from dense places to manageable groups of 5 to max 10. I go for generators only after I have a base, and cars just if I find a car key, or find a truck with lot of space and can hotwire the veicle. I farm as early I can just make 2 or 4 plots and plant tomatoes if you will come after many days plant tomatoes or strawberries, If you will be around for the next 10 days, the plan carrots. Excercise before sleeping and morning, just make sure you have painkillers.
Great run, killed a few hours for one disabled and unemployed man and gave me some great ideas for my own playthrough. I am a big fan of organizing my bases as compact as possible, with multiple bases across a town with one large base with my garage in it. Typically a warehouse, mechanic shop, or firehouse. I also use a mod to rename containers and end up with walls of metal framed wooden containers stacked 3 high for efficient use of space, I can just never get enough gun safes or lockers for all my good loot and that's even more tedious moving them around then simply making crates and stacking them. Ugly, but effective. My favorite is double sealing windows on those little shipping container like buildings near construction sites with metal sheets, quicker and stronger than wooden planks. Then just stacking the walls with crates and a cot, maybe a wood stove and a rain barrel/sink if I'm feeling fancy and too lazy to make a real base. Never had a single problem with some basic fences around it on Apocalypse. I'd love to see the metrics on this video because 1 million views on a 3 hour video seems absurd to me, not that this video isn't worthy. I just can't imagine most viewers are sitting through the whole thing based on what I've heard about viewer retention on even thirty minute videos from other long form creators.
Way late to this party, but I can tell you, a large chunk of your problem with foraging is that you're doing it exhausted and with a cowboy hat on. Both reduce the range of detection for foragable items. I also believe you have sunglasses on too? Those negatively affect your detection range as well.
After a few thousand hours on this game my one top tip is ALWAYS take “keen hearing” I never get snuck up on anymore it gives just enough time to see them and stand up or whatever to attack
I watched the original parts while they were posted. And then I heard they got pulled over absolutely no good reason, and I heard him say to come watch this one, so I decided to give it my best and come watch it all again, to give him the view he deserved. I'm sad to see that the other 45,000 people didn't, but I like watching him play because I'm so bad at this game (despite being here since Build 3) that I think I can glean some of his knowledge of how to play and apply it myself to the game. Maybe now I can survive past 20 days again like I could in build 3.
The fact that this and a 7 hiur vid are your 2 most popular vids is truly insane, good stuff on all the editing and content creation, i know its so much more than just playing the game
I don't know about you - but I got to respect the guy who is so good at Project Zomboid that he can use his skills, a little fire, and an overzealous horde to burn down an entire baseball stadium in-game. All because he hates baseball.
Alright. Just ended on your channel, started to watch i'm actually at 10min and i'll drop you a sub and finish this because i love your story telling and you seem to know what you're doing. Looking forward for more content. Keep up you'll grow fast that way.
Paul walker, dale earnhart. 😢 your breaking my heart with these r references man great video though! I also notice how your editing skills evolved over the course of this video. Night and day difference between the first 100 days and 300. Very excited to keep watching 😊
Some gems along the video: "I have a better chance of saying no to Bill Cosby than I would securing this base" 😂 "You'd have better luck teaching Hellen Keller to see properly than for me to catch anything" "I did my best Henry Ruggs impression and totaled my car"
i believe building rain barrels next to the crop automatically waters them, just the square next to the collector though. don't know how to extend irrigation further.
I've never played this game and randomly stumbled upon this channel. For some reason I found this oddly satisfying and now want to play this game. Also, new subscriber.
I would like to see you have a nomad, play through with three rules 1 can't loot any gun store, 2 have to pick a area that's not a city to be around, and 3 must clear 75% of said area from zombies
38:00 Yeah .22LR is a REALLY small round IRL, the best way to use it in game is as a scout rifle since it makes next to no sound compared to other round types.
I've never watched this game or this channel before but you're entertaining and informative enough to keep me hooked pretty much the entire time throughout a 3 hour video so well done
Day 319, you explored a "football field", that's Churchill Downs. It's a horse racing track where the Kentucky Derby is held, you big goober. Love your content, please give us more ❤
I am a person who loves cussing personally, but for some reason when listening it doesn't really sound like you would be someone who cusses then out of no-where I hear you cussing and it's fucking hilarious for some reason.
LOL nice stuff man. I am still trying to survive past 20 days. ;-) And i felt depressed when the TV channels went off the air. The game has a real psychological effects on me that i've never experienced before.

The descent into madness and the # of totaled cars has got me laughing in a good way. It's like watching a holo recording of a diary in action spliced up quite nicely and digestable to listen or view.
Good work; you got my like before i hit an hour in and i'm still going.
I'm going to guess you've totaled 12 cars at least before this video ends.
i sat through that video from start to end. first time i've done that with any video without pausing. probably won't be doing that for a while as concentrating on certain things like this can be a strain unless I think it's worth it.
Here's the kudos; ADHD is a bitch but I saw it to the end as I personally looked at this to see what i could learn once I pick up Zomboid again.
THe lesson i took from this is don't try half of what you did on my end as i saw alot of moments where you were just a cunt hair's breath from just being game ended.
Good job; i honestly am looking foward to more of your work.
Even with all the issues you had editing and stuff i really appreciate the video, just the dedication to do this got me, really enjoying the video so far, glad you had the courage to finish the project, like PZ skills, it only gets better after repetition!
I love to watch PZ videos but barely play the game haha. I died in two seconds after leaving my house and coming back inside with a zombie that had spawned in it.
@@w花b I watched some tutorials and survived a month and a half with friends but solo I can only last about 2 weeks
I honestly get leaving a base behind. The only real goal of the game is don't die. So my personal goal is to just have bases and safe houses all over the place. I'll slowly reclaim the map until it's all mine.
I enjoy this play through so much that id chip in a few bucks a month to see you do another long series like this if you were willing. Maybe with different mods or with friends if that was somehow possible to keep it fresh for u? idk. Either way thx for the great content my guy!
my first successful character died after 60 days, exactly 5 hours after eating a slightly overcooked steak, as i didnt know that the game treats burnt food the same as rottsn ones
Standing barefoot in broken glass is also a great way to grind out First Aid. Saves your clothes, too.
My friend just told me about this game and it's 33 percent off. I like the look of it.. Definitely buying 👍🏾
It's not an easy game but that mean's it'll be more rewarding when you succeed.
buy it
Steam summer sale. Take it while you can because it doesn’t go on sale often!
I was thinking of getting it too but I don't think my shitty laptop would run it
@@luke50469 my computer is dogshit. Intel core i3 mac from 2011. Base model. Works perfect. If it doesn’t for you, just refund it
I'm completely new to PZ, this video is one of those golden memory moments
Do not call this game PZ. Don’t do it. Nobody does it.
@@grandhomme4183 bruh let this random person talk like they want you dont need to correcto em
man i randomly found this video going down a rabbit hole on youtube tonight , and let me say. what an absolute treasure. god tier content sir , well done
all because of 8 seconds of a copyright non copyright song🤩
UA-cam moment
Those 8 seconds were vital. Ruined the next 3hrs of gameplay 😤
I like how his main arc isn't going super fat or skinny to jacked, but rather not obliterating cars with trees
Just like Jesse Eisenberg's character (Mike Powell) in the movie American Ultra, "this one tree has been sitting in this one place not doing anything until tonight when it, like, stopped the car. " A fitting end to each of the cars.
Hey man! I absolutely adore your playthrough! Currently watching through day 339. I think you might already know this by know, buuuuut you can plaster your wooden walls, which then let you to paint them. I forgot the correct way, but I think you can plaster lvl 3 wooden walls with a bucket of water and a bag of plaster. I hope it helps!
In the meantime, I'll keep binging your content, since your editing + the commentary is really enjoyable ^^
When I first saw your video, I thought to myself that there's no way I would watch all of it.. I'll only watch 10 mins, to see what this is about.
But your storytelling was so entertaining, I actually kept watching!
Keep up the good work!
I know I’m a bit late, but if you see this. Thanks a lot for your effort. I’ve had a few terrible weeks, and videos like this really help put my mind ease when night comes. Cheers, good luck on your future endeavors. All the best.
Cool video, my friends and I had made a base at the rosewood firehall, and one morning we awoke to multiple explosions going off, our generators had given up the ghost and gone nuclear and set fire to our base. We ended up moving to the prison. Take care of your generators folks!
I just discovered pz and watching this is making me further realise its the game I've always been looking for and at the same time I'm learning so much
1:50:00
Just for reference - the fastest, though dumb way of leveling first aid is breaking glass. Them walk over it barefoot.
You basically guaranteed to get 2 wounds and glass fragments lodged. Take case of those wounds and walk right back over the glass. Fresh wounds, fresh XP.
You do need to have the option to stay at home for a few days after it because till your feet heal properly you are a crawling zombie-chow...
People often don't know that at lvl 5 electric you can build battery connectors by right clicking on any lamp using electronic scrap. Add a battery and you have a battery power lamp, great for minor safehouses w/o generators.
I usually don't like these kinds of games but I got pz last weekend and now I'm working my 8hrs, coming home, working on my skills and base, going to sleep, and playing pz before work. Im so addicted and your content makes playing it so much more fun
My last super long run, I was in that Riverside town (or whatever it's called) and used the post office as my main base. Sealed off the doors and windows with metal sheets on both sides. I also took out the stairs and put sheets in various windows to get in and out. I was able to basically clear out the city from there, and amass a huge stockpile. I cleared out the roof and did farming there. So I was basically self sufficient, and the zombies were no threat at all at that point.
Is it still ongoing or did you die somehow?
Did you die or did you leave that save?
Basically
1:18.00 "violating the Geneva convention" 1. It only applies to humans 2. you did not use a .50 cal or higher, Armour piercing rounds, depleted uranium rounds, white phosphorus, etc. They should add those to the game at the military base. Being i was in the war, an infantryman in the army, we where briefed on all that months prior to deployment. Once there, it all went out the window. i carried a Barret .50 for a while. great gun, told it was for "vehicles" but it was used for people or whatever the need of the platoon was. Think taking down thick mud brick walls. The depleted uranium rounds for the .50 cal sniper where used as well. had to switch out the barrel, and the rounds look well, they look mean. Armour piercing was standard issue. Black tip rounds, not the green tip ones. The insurgents, well, they did not wear a country's uniform so the Geneva convention did not apply to them.
Never played this game, but i find it highly enjoyable watching the strategies of other people, how they think out of the box. this game, it fulfills that need and its based on my favorite movies, a zombie apoc. Good work, i like what you did.
Well done. Tips galore and commentary for what to do and not to do. This is a must watch for anyone trying to succeed in Project Zomboid! (spoiler below)
Even for 500 days survived, three hours was a bit much to watch it all in one sitting. Even with regular bathroom breaks, there was so much information to take in. I may have to watch this again and take notes. Again, well done; keep up the great content.
Your play-style seems mostly well thought out and methodical, while keeping the commentary interesting. Execution of your plans as you move from town to town helped me realize staying in one place was causing the most issues for my game play. ie I should consider using cars more often
After completing this challenge, do you have any more challenges you want to complete? Would adding friends to the 'mix' help with any of the challenges you found difficult?
I guess a couple more questions (for @thatguypredz or others):
Is it better to be well fed/not thirsty before going to bed or after you wake up?
Before water runs out, what items did you focus on to get the most backup fresh water?
Do you need to wash your clothes and equipment constantly or just toss it when you find something with better protection vs scratches/weather/etc?
I died on my first five or so characters in an attempt to figure out the game before looking into the wiki or youtube for help. What resources (websites/etc) have you used most often for figuring out how to complete a particular accomplishment/goal?
Which is your favorite starting area/play style: Wilderness (woods with river access), housing in a town, going combat-only play style or other?
spoiler: ie no jumping off buildings, which may break bones. It seems crazy to me that in all the zombie fights you got into, that's what almost killed you. 🥲
The video is nice, but wish you could...like..explain everything like a storyline, how you did in that 300 days series, it would have given the video a bit of life❤
Just got the game last night and man this video really opened me up to the opportunities I have in store and OH man being able to actually place your items and decorate that just makes me even more excited
The fact that at 2:00:53 the moment he says "I decided to try my hand at cooking." I literally was thinking to myself, "I swear to god if he plays the it's so good and tasty meme I am going to have to log in and subscribe to this man."
Then the meme played and my soul sang hallelujah.
You earned my sub, this video is so well made btw I cannot imagine how long this took to put together!
Never played this game, always looked past it in the steam store. This gameplay looks absolutely amazing and right up my alley. Great video bro 😎
I just found your content, and the game itself. You have a very ASMR feel with these videos. No crazy noises, no active wild over acting. Really nice. Gonna stick around.
Now this. This is the long ass type of content I enjoy. I will be watching this through a few days
I intuitively skipped the intro, then went back. And I'm now subscribing, I've watched 73 seconds total of this video.
Fantastic job man, appreciate the effort and the short and consise intro. This is what good content is all about.
this video feels like a safe place, kinda don’t want this video to end. very calming.
The build 42 (new update) will add for the first times animals in game. Technically, there are animals but they are considered as objects. You'll never see an animal wander on the map. You find dead mouses in trashcans, dead rabbits rabbits if you trap them or insects when doing the search thing (with the eye). Well, this will change in this huge upstate which is going to be the biggest update yet for this game. Cows, pigs, chickens, sheep. They will be able to breed and make babies. All of them will be different, their own genitic stuff, colour's races for cows as an example. Zombies will be attracted to their sounds bit won't kill them.
That's what I love about this game, you have do many things you can do, it's endless. You can stay in town or decide to clear an area in the country side and live in a farm. (useful for the winter)
Birds will be added too, now you'll see mouses, rats near trashes, in houses sometimes looking for food. Deers will also be added. We don't have much information on them and of course bears. They will probably be a threat to the player, and wander in forest areas but might come near or inside cities.
Rabbits, squirrels too.
This update is huge but there are so much more yet to come like camping objects. Quit useful after everything shut off. And more vhs, more books. Stories lore in some abandoned houses with pictures, notes ect.
Ben Dover has the most incredible luck I have ever seen. My current strongest survivor only made it 70 days before getting her hand nommed on, and that was from less insane circumstances than Ben goes through.
38:41 cracked me tf up
"Fat fingered my gun"
Never heard that phrase before. I'll use it now.
Seriously I'm laughing so hard, I'm snorting XD
Nice video. Watching this made me feel as if I played and learned with you. Killed any drive I had to buying PZ in the process lol. Glad you enjoy it as much as you do though.
Enjoy life brotha 🤙
2:02:17 had me racing to my computer to turn off whatever noise was to come next, only to realise it was your video... not a hidden tab I'd forgotten about. Curse you and your good video!
the bow gets super op at high level, never actually manually leveled it though so that might defeat the purpose
Compound bow is also ups the damage
its not a horde killing weapon, its a stealth weapon best paired with sneaking
Very rare I would stick around for things like this but I'm glad you didn't violate my ears with screaming, royalty free EDM, all those editing tricks to keep a kid's attention. I'm actually invested.
I'm glad this kinda thing is possible because I wanted to do something a lot like this in this game. Also these long form videos are nice since I'm recovering from surgery
How was the recovery
One month later I hope you are doing well
Hope you're fully recovered now bucko
hope your doin good buddy
Alternate Title: ThatGuyPredz wrecks cars for 03:15:31. Also baseball is the worst
Loved the whole vid. You kept me entertained the whole time especially the MS Paint parts. Looking forward for the rest of the series
Casually goes out every now and then to just straight up purge the horde
watching you play this game has really helped me with playing the game as a new player. I’ve gone from dying within minutes to killing 60 zombies and lasting at least a few days 😂 Still not exactly good but but making progress, keep up the good work man
I only breafly heard about this game a couple of weeks ago. But wow this series took me by surprise! Pretty much watched it in on sitting. Cannot wait for the whole 1000 days (: Keep up the amazing work!
Finnay my first good run survived 12 days, Altough still alive (I most of the time die at day 3) I used a mod for npcs just to see my first member of the group getting teared apart when I was savaging and a z smashed a window setting off a alarm 😔
You will be remembered Stuart...
Your storytelling and comedy timing skills are really enjoyable, well done, man! Lots of effort, quality end result. Thanks for this!
i tried to play this game like a year ago and it was ROUGH, but watching someone whos actually competent at the game is so satisfying and nice, weirdly enough kinda like rust in a way
This is badass! I bought PZ from seeing videos on UA-cam. Not something I'd normally do, but it looks like an experience not to be missed. A true gamer's game. Is 500 hours in game, 50 hours in realtime? Or is there some kind of multiplier?
It's customizable, a day in PZ(assuming you don't sleep) is, by default, 1 hour irl. It's customizable so you can have 1 day in game be 1 day irl, but stats and etc won't make sense.
Taking vitamins and resting indoors should speed cold diminishing
as someone who's never heard of this game i find this very interesting
Best way to describe it is if the walking dead was an actually good show and then was turned into a game I guess, it’s something you have to play to actually experience
Imagine Sims 1 with zombies, guns and full motion control. It's obviously a bit more nuanced than that but the game is pretty good. I'll tell you right now because I've never seen anyone mention it, be careful with mods. Only add one to your game at a time because they can totally brick your game. Also some mods only work with certain builds. There's an npc mod that's at the top of the most subbed list that hasn't worked in an extremely long time, "survivors 2 in 1" is the new and working version. The community specifically on reddit is terrible when it comes to asking for help. Like I said earlier the game is great and I'm having a lot of fun with it currently played about a hundred hours but unfortunately nobody talks about the bad so hopefully you or someone else gained so insight
I got a like on my original comment and wanted to say the mod I mentioned "2 in 1 survivors" is no longer being worked on. It appears the mod author has abandoned their project. This is another common occurrence due to the way the code is for the game. Everytime there is a major update, the code is changed so significantly that mods tend to break. As you can probably imagine this is incredibly frustrating for everyone especially the mod authors. Don't worry so much though because there's always someone around to pick the project back up eventually
I would just like to say thank you for posting this. I have trouble sleeping and have never had something that can help me much. However, this has helped me fall asleep for about 2 weeks!
While watching this, I ate 3 spoonfuls of Nutella from a bowl with my hand
interesting to see different playstyles, I usually go with securing 2 or 3 stashes, before making a base with (Example in muldraugh 1 in residential rich area 1 at cabin close to food market, 1 between them, on big house on the angle, north close to farm a 2 store house, and 1 last house north)
And kill everything around my stashes and sterilise 100 or 200 ripped sheets for each strash before water and electricity goes down.
search and store essential stuff on each stash, while searching for a backpack before moving to far away.
I usually dont read books until I have secure enough books and basic stuff (except if I find tailoring,cooking,carpentry), stone axe ingredients, tailoting ingredients on my stashes and as many empty bottles pots, sauce pots, as I can, because i can die at any moment if I dont have "safe places"
After this is done is just clean routes and chop tons of trees to make bases, and level up carpentry never disassemble anything without having carpentry books for fast leveling and watch Life and Living TV at 6:00 and 18:00 for ez first levels.
just need to get a sledghammer first, and start to connect houses on rich residential area and make 1 base there, 1 base pond far north.
on other cities i follow kind of the same pattern just make stashes not to close from dense areas, and clean and disperse zeds from dense places to manageable groups of 5 to max 10.
I go for generators only after I have a base, and cars just if I find a car key, or find a truck with lot of space and can hotwire the veicle.
I farm as early I can just make 2 or 4 plots and plant tomatoes if you will come after many days plant tomatoes or strawberries, If you will be around for the next 10 days, the plan carrots.
Excercise before sleeping and morning, just make sure you have painkillers.
Great run, killed a few hours for one disabled and unemployed man and gave me some great ideas for my own playthrough. I am a big fan of organizing my bases as compact as possible, with multiple bases across a town with one large base with my garage in it. Typically a warehouse, mechanic shop, or firehouse. I also use a mod to rename containers and end up with walls of metal framed wooden containers stacked 3 high for efficient use of space, I can just never get enough gun safes or lockers for all my good loot and that's even more tedious moving them around then simply making crates and stacking them. Ugly, but effective. My favorite is double sealing windows on those little shipping container like buildings near construction sites with metal sheets, quicker and stronger than wooden planks. Then just stacking the walls with crates and a cot, maybe a wood stove and a rain barrel/sink if I'm feeling fancy and too lazy to make a real base. Never had a single problem with some basic fences around it on Apocalypse.
I'd love to see the metrics on this video because 1 million views on a 3 hour video seems absurd to me, not that this video isn't worthy. I just can't imagine most viewers are sitting through the whole thing based on what I've heard about viewer retention on even thirty minute videos from other long form creators.
Seriously hard to find more quality content than your 500 days/1000 days content. Appreciate all your efforts through this series. u da man predz
Way late to this party, but I can tell you, a large chunk of your problem with foraging is that you're doing it exhausted and with a cowboy hat on. Both reduce the range of detection for foragable items. I also believe you have sunglasses on too? Those negatively affect your detection range as well.
After a few thousand hours on this game my one top tip is ALWAYS take “keen hearing” I never get snuck up on anymore it gives just enough time to see them and stand up or whatever to attack
I watched the original parts while they were posted. And then I heard they got pulled over absolutely no good reason, and I heard him say to come watch this one, so I decided to give it my best and come watch it all again, to give him the view he deserved. I'm sad to see that the other 45,000 people didn't, but I like watching him play because I'm so bad at this game (despite being here since Build 3) that I think I can glean some of his knowledge of how to play and apply it myself to the game. Maybe now I can survive past 20 days again like I could in build 3.
Man just was like "I've killed undead people for a week... oh well time to grow potatoes".
i felt so bad for your character during this entire run seeing how much weight you made them carry - i felt like an overprotective mother
I don't like making my character carry a lot of weight but sometimes it's necessary
🤨
29:14 "channel my inner Ricky Bobby!"
Buddy your channeling your inner Paul Walker at this point
2 minutes in and we already got a bill Cosby joke…
I like it!
Baseball is all about drinking a beer with your buddy on a nice day and every few innings going "oh shit nice!"
"Days 181-190: I put in my time at the temple of swolitude"
This is top tier UA-camr content. I haven't been entertained like this on UA-cam in so long, thank you so much for this video!
a zip 22 in a school locker with a 35 rounder or whatever it is that shit is fuckin cursed as hell
The fact that this and a 7 hiur vid are your 2 most popular vids is truly insane, good stuff on all the editing and content creation, i know its so much more than just playing the game
That Paul Walker joke was savage as hell. Felt like an asshole for laughing. Great content
Hey man I just want you to know that I'm a big fan of your vides and that I plan on sticking to this channel for a long time.
I've never played this. I now want to play this. Thank you.
55:16 You don't know just how much I was hoping you were going to wreck that car 7 seconds after you took off lol.
"I did what any sane person would do... I ran to the church and begged for forgiveness.
Except that didn't work and I lit the church on fire :)"
I don't know about you - but I got to respect the guy who is so good at Project Zomboid that he can use his skills, a little fire, and an overzealous horde to burn down an entire baseball stadium in-game.
All because he hates baseball.
Alright. Just ended on your channel, started to watch i'm actually at 10min and i'll drop you a sub and finish this because i love your story telling and you seem to know what you're doing. Looking forward for more content. Keep up you'll grow fast that way.
Paul walker, dale earnhart. 😢 your breaking my heart with these r
references man great video though! I also notice how your editing skills evolved over the course of this video. Night and day difference between the first 100 days and 300. Very excited to keep watching 😊
Definitely subbing, great video! I enjoyed turning my brain off and just enjoying myself
Some gems along the video:
"I have a better chance of saying no to Bill Cosby than I would securing this base" 😂
"You'd have better luck teaching Hellen Keller to see properly than for me to catch anything"
"I did my best Henry Ruggs impression and totaled my car"
Can’t wait for the next part!
i believe building rain barrels next to the crop automatically waters them, just the square next to the collector though. don't know how to extend irrigation further.
I gotta say. Its missing the wii music....
Actual fisherman:
*Goes fishing, catches a fish*
This guy:

I've never played this game and randomly stumbled upon this channel. For some reason I found this oddly satisfying and now want to play this game. Also, new subscriber.
"I'd have a better chance saying no to bill Cosby, than securing this base right now" lmao I laughed pretty hard at that
I would like to see you have a nomad, play through with three rules 1 can't loot any gun store, 2 have to pick a area that's not a city to be around, and 3 must clear 75% of said area from zombies
this whole video feels like im reading a dairy of a survivor. pretty relaxing
38:00
Yeah .22LR is a REALLY small round IRL, the best way to use it in game is as a scout rifle since it makes next to no sound compared to other round types.
I've never watched this game or this channel before but you're entertaining and informative enough to keep me hooked pretty much the entire time throughout a 3 hour video so well done
Day 319, you explored a "football field", that's Churchill Downs. It's a horse racing track where the Kentucky Derby is held, you big goober. Love your content, please give us more ❤
The editing and commentary decisions made starting day 14 and 15 was absolutely peak content. Sub.
I am a person who loves cussing personally, but for some reason when listening it doesn't really sound like you would be someone who cusses then out of no-where I hear you cussing and it's fucking hilarious for some reason.
The jokes about people dying in car accidents is real classy.
Finally finished it. Great journey man. Hope fatherhood is fun btw!
LOL nice stuff man.
I am still trying to survive past 20 days. ;-)
And i felt depressed when the TV channels went off the air. The game has a real psychological effects on me that i've never experienced before.
