I wrote some constructive criticisms below, and loved the video! ~Secret Loot~ The secret stash of loot was genius. The only thing I believe it's missing is a second surprise. A few rooms with large doors filled with zombies that are opened by the admin would add some drama to an otherwise peaceful loot fest. ~Adding Players Late Game~ This is always a great idea. Having them be RP locked was a great idea too (until their boss died lol). They should, in my opinion, always out gear, but under number the existing survivors. Otherwise it's not a power shift. That's the idea behind them being RP locked, it can rebalance them. I'd love to see a stylized group next time. Blades guy, pistols guy, etc, etc. ~Zombie Waves~ There definitely needs to be a way to always be able to add more zombies (multiple, in case clever players disable them). That way you can toggle it when things get too peaceful or boring, timed, etc. ~On The Hour Events~ This is an excellent idea. Here's some other ideas. - Collective Problem Something everyone needs to work together to solve. Something where there is collective punishment otherwise. So like nuclear power plant is leaking radiation and will spread if not fixed, type scenario. If fixed a reward, if not, the map is irradiated. - Duel To The Death Set their strongest forward to risk their life for a reward, or a punishment if the fight is lost. Win is gear, food, weapons etc. loss is zombie horde, fire, cold snap, etc. - Weather effects Cold snap, heat wave, etc. You could reward them collectively based on the number of survivors saved during the event. Or possibly have something desirable within hars way. So a supply crate within deadly weather basically. ~Unique Gear/Captain's Hat~ Love this idea. If possible try and add a buff effect to the hat to make it more desirable. You could also add unique hats the person with the leader hat can assign. That way guards, and farms, builders, etc all are identifiable and have their own buff effect. Anyhow, that's plenty haha. Loved the video. Much love to you and yours. /Jon Bon
Hey thanks so much for all of the feedback! The zombie part of this boat was hard to figure out because there was only one way for them to enter (unless we just spawn them on the ship) but the zombies in the stash idea would’ve been genius if we thought of that earlier. And I’m glad you liked the captains hat and the adding players later on! They’re both something new we came up with and it makes me happy that people were so receptive to it.
love that i can tell you play Rimworld just by the weather events and the terms you used for some things.. hahaha Heat wave XD .. a heat wave would definitely suck in PZ cause u want the protective gear but its hot.. would be interesting to see a winter survival but it being mostly indoors would negate most of the risk so heat waves would be the killer
I wasn't a part of this event, but I already enjoy the passion in the comments from those involved. I'm excited to watch things unfold. I love to see the characters people create. Some people show up as themselves. Others go psychopathic, and it needs to be drawn out for as long as possible. A good story always has conflict. We need the villains to have accomplices that perform "deus ex machina" -- showing up to save the villain last second to create more mischief and storytelling/development. A failed plan usually isn't attempted again, but if somebody does, it would probably be funny.
the molotovs against the IRF was from me and roxx, we became RNC (unrelated to NCR) and threw more molotovs at the newer IRF base. Looking back on it, so many coincidences happened to put the IRF right where we went. We even asked them for a lighter to throw more molotovs at them WHILE THEY WERE SEARCHING FOR US BECAUSE WE THREW MOLOTOVS AT THEM. 11/10 event, would attend again
zeneth didnt know we threw the molotovs and prewarned us we were KOS so we just disbanded brutality (brut). When IRF was searching for brutality the faction no longer even existed lmao
loved the ending, literally shows how a tiny decision can be a massive mistake later on. and btw if you were expecting a nice happy ending, you have not been paying attention!
It's like Harvest forgets that there's a difference between things he's seen and heard and what each player has. It isn't hard to remember that not every player knows everything you do about what's going on.
Peaches was an awesome captain, too bad he didn't make it. It looked like most of his group scattered as soon as they came under fire, but one or two loyal guards tried to save him.
Man. I need a PC. Lol. Liked the players coming later. Would be theatrical if people would truly fall into character. Like they're actually stuck on a ship. Not just being crazy for the sake of being so. Lol. Still great.
0:35 “floating shitty” 😂😂😂 I was playing gta ramping off mountains with my motorcycle, heard this, laughed my ass off, lost control of the bike and ramped off a mountain into a river 😂
@@HarvestZ Every event thrown is bloody amazingly done tho and much props to you and the mods for holding them!!! And to everyone attending making every video and live stream worth the watch.
excellent idea! shout out to all the players that participate and make this shit so entertaining to watch. i can't believe i bought this game, played like 2 hours and never played again. felt so intense to me despite the graphics lol
Dude this felt like I was watching a movie was very well done and everyone played very well enjoyed all the comments, ideals, the friendships made, the betrayals, the secrecy, the humor, just everyone was great hope to see more like this.
In the end, the survivors were too headstrong to recover from the Captain's Death. I understand Jimik's motives inside, and his decision to hide. He backed off, rather than take them on. So Headstrong to take down everyone. He knew that they were wrong. Headstrong, they were headstrong and this is not, where they belooooong. 🎶Harvest can't give the location awaaaaaay🎶 🎶Harvest won't give the location awaaaaaaaaaaay🎶
I've never played this game, and don't see myself ever playing, but damn if you're videos aren't an absolute blast to watch! I started this video last night at 11pm, fell asleep watching it in bed, ended up rewinding to the last thing I remember and picking back up this morning.. lol.. Good times! Great admining the event and I look forward to more stuff like this from you! Don't let us down!!!
I think how the last event turned out made for a fantastic story. Jmik thought it was in his best interest to keep the location of the captain's hat to himself instead of finding four others to help. He was wrong (or was he). That's life and I enjoyed watching these people meet their unfortunate yet inevitable end. Revenge is a powerful thing. P.S.: Could he have gotten over the side with a sheet to get the hat? Why didn't he save himself them?
I think more people doesn't necessarily mean better. My favorite video of yours is when you joined the small server and met brother. These videos with over 100 people have good moments, but all our favorite parts are the people who go off on their own. I don't know how to make that happen or balance that, but I know I'd like to see more of the Island Guys, Glynn, Brother (when he wasn't a villain), and even Cult before they were popular.
same here. I thought.... a mixture of individual povs would be great for storytelling purpose. Don´t know if that´s possible in PZ as admin, but just "follow" some previosuly chosen chars, who are probably streaming themselfes anyway. I find it hard sometimes to get into the stories if there´s only the admin pov. as charming as our host is ;) "noooooooooooo" :D
He grew on me. At first I thought he was a coward that was gonna spend the whole time hiding but he quickly became the captain the ship needed, no one else the whole event commanded the same respect and there were a lot of good moments. I was surprised Bojangles outlived him.
Maybe in a future event you could let the captain send global voice messages or something over the "ships loud speaker". Would give them a bigger illusion of power
For an experiment, you yourself should try to organize the entire roster into factions and then let each player decide throughout the game if they are gonna stick with the faction or leave it. You could elect leaders or have them hold their own elections. You could also move each faction to a random but separate part of the map. This way you have large groups already formed and more organization between teams.
I actually think adding the 5 geared out guys was a good idea. I mean that could throw a curveball into any situation. Also Peaches did run away alot. If he went to the front lines right away he would have gotten more respect for sure.
i liked the 3hr mark with the introduction of the event however i suggest if you do that to add more people so narratively that doesnt happen again but i enjoyed that to watch it was a fun idea
The players joining in later on. Grate thing. Not really giving them a leg up it just a notch in a story and you could argue they missed out on the start so you get some and loose some.
i think a good event for 100-200 people would be 2 factions with everyone split between the 2. Faction A is democratic and Faction B has 1 absolute ruler. whatever happens after happens (civil war, coup, war between factions, etc).
I know it’s a tone of work but really enjoy the highly edited version of these (like the mall ep!). Just hard to sit through a 4hr vid 😅Keep up the good work g🙌🏻 more will come
Maybe a bit too late of a comment, but have you ever considered setting up like one slot for a survivor to be able to bring his character to the next event based on who the viewers of the stream like best? Would be something like a fan favorite slot. That way however a plot goes, the viewers could choose who they liked the story of best.
Maybe provide exclusive access to the "captain", with the hat acting like a key to other areas, or give them exclusive info on events like a minute before.
If I was running I would have promised to form a government (council) with representatives from each faction. The representatives could come together for regular meetings and discuss issues faced by their group and through democratic voting between the members of the council we would create policy to act upon.
It wouldn’t work,ppl get bored with peace and eventually start a coup or a war. Even if ALL clans were willing to participate,eventually someone would get assassinated. If I was running I’d get everybody busy so they wouldn’t do anything crazy,ensuring safety and sustenance first and then worry about diplomacy. I’d also introduce a ranking system(sergeants and captains) so ppl will have a motive to contribute and take initiate,with added benefits for them(better equipment,first dibs on loot,voting privileges for a war declaration and the ability to lead a small group of their own guys). If everything goes well now I’m war ready,my people are productive and motivated and i don’t have to cater to everyone cos my officers take care of minor issues.
The captains hat is a really cool idea but it should have more consistent bonuses. As it was it only mattered a couple of times and even then not too much. having something like that which actually made clans want to fight for it would be a really cool addition to these events
Hey Harvest, great content and video. To improve it I could suggest something, which you may not see during game :D, but when you talk to players you usually say "ok", "so" or any other short words :D
Overall a good video, but I skipped until close to the ending after the last event was announced and jmk still kept the secret cause it got too tedious, maybe have some minor backup events the audience can vote on ready if things get too slow. Peaches became the leader the ship needed before his untimely death. My favorite parts were mostly around Bojangles getting away with canabalism when confronted, and still being able to join IRF. Captain's final moments were heartwarming.
any chance you can make a story out of it? The idea is intriguing but, with respect, I don't have 4 hours to watch it and it's really hard to keep up with chaotic developments happening.
Harvest ms Romero great again. I think you are the only one worldwide, hosting such events. Some others in Rust but not in PZ. So that´s a lot! not to mention all the new players you bring to PZ. to the problem of mixing old and new ones: Why not keep the 2 types of events. One "open for all", and in that event, people have to earn something to be "promoted" to next level. Why not something normally total useless? Money for example :D The real scripted events, which ARE simply a lot of work, why not limit them to 50. 40 earned and 10 wildcards? And I think it would be good, if it is more rewarding looting/killing zeds. AND to get rid of their corpses. If the zombies-killed count would be of any importance... I guess that would provide more realistic interaction. If you insert a captain-machanic, everyone should always know, who is in charge. but: great work! thank´s again When I had to leave... I paused the stream to continue it later. Was weird, watching the middle of the vid...with the end-chat only... the traderguards where the worst bodyguards ever! Has anyone lived shorter than the trader ? The guards should protect the hat at all cost. why not: the first one, they protect with guns, the second one only melee... The map had too many stories, imo. 2 would be enough. And you HAVE to protect the only entrance, dungeon master ;) in the end: forget half of what I´ve said. Great plot twist! still: Jimik would have been cooler if had gotten victory for his faction instead of revenge ;) Or honour But the end was the best! so....zomboid-esk. like the chat said "this is how you died"
I like the small maps like the mall and the ship, the factions are really cool. I love these videos so much and there are barely any. Jacob was my favorite in the mall. Long Live Jacob
For an idea if when you do another event like this, try having 1 person per faction or maybe the big factions be the Captain and/or leader to have the meetings to decide which groups do what if they want of course lol.
I love this series, but to adress the initial lack of discord: I think there would be more at stake if resources were more scarce and the captain plays a larger role. For example, if periodically shipments of dwindling supplies become available, perhaps only to the captain, but there isn't enough for everyone, meaning factions have to fend for themselves for scarce resources.
Just sat fown and watched the whole vod. Not something I usually fo but this was fun end to end. I even switched the video over to my living room TV and watched it on the big screen XD I hope you plan to turn this into a video. The story you can tell would be good I think. Especially the tragic ending.
Suggestion: You use the word "event" to mean two separate things. One "event" essentially refers to the entire stream session, the other "event" refers to the special things that happen every 30-60 minutes. This is confusing. It is clear that you are often confused by this yourself. Just change the name of one of them so you aren't confusing yourself and everyone else.
These are great. I think the only thing needed is some sort of incentive to make people comply with following order structures. Im not sure what the tools are for the game but a mod to give a player tools to make people comply in an event like this. The captain could be the only one to spawn in small items for players and have some sort of RL reward if they make it to the end of the event, i dont know try to get a sponsor or something to offer £500, maybe have it so the players have to buy from the sponsor for entry? force people to follow the game rules. Its just an idea but imagine if you can bottleneck and force the railroad problem. They are good enough as they are but just likew in these games, greed gets the better of everyone!
Imagine if a god in irl after a big war says "The next event will begin in 15 mins!" Or if the item of important gets tossed "So you have chosen death!"
The hat should actually have an effect, otherwise what would you expect? It should let the owner do something like execute one person every hour or something, or at least use the speakers to transmit messages across the ship.
Maybe in the next event when electing Captain give the captain more exclusive stuff like food or other special things so people wants to fight for it XD
So they can never remember the rules, the script, the event on hand. And all always want to cause more drama. I'm sure they're just playing characters. Truly lol.
HarvestZ thanks for introducing me to this game. Please help me understand though... If D&D games have a Dungeon Master, then does that make you a Zombie Master?
Players joining in was good. The reasoning was a little forced I wish The Smuggler had more said they were looking for a home. I think their kits were fine.
Harvest is essentially a more humane version of Vault-Tec with all the social experiments
There wouldn’t be any reason why I’m doing vault-like streams to test anything…. right?
@@HarvestZ:
"Haaaaa lol.. unless...?"
This video did remind me of that vault with the recovered chem addicts then the cache opens but with guns and food in this obviously
I like players joining late in those events, shows charisma when they join your team. It’s cool
Yoooooo he liked my comment.
@@This_Is_Soup congrats my guy!!
I wrote some constructive criticisms below, and loved the video!
~Secret Loot~
The secret stash of loot was genius. The only thing I believe it's missing is a second surprise. A few rooms with large doors filled with zombies that are opened by the admin would add some drama to an otherwise peaceful loot fest.
~Adding Players Late Game~
This is always a great idea. Having them be RP locked was a great idea too (until their boss died lol). They should, in my opinion, always out gear, but under number the existing survivors. Otherwise it's not a power shift. That's the idea behind them being RP locked, it can rebalance them. I'd love to see a stylized group next time. Blades guy, pistols guy, etc, etc.
~Zombie Waves~
There definitely needs to be a way to always be able to add more zombies (multiple, in case clever players disable them). That way you can toggle it when things get too peaceful or boring, timed, etc.
~On The Hour Events~
This is an excellent idea. Here's some other ideas.
- Collective Problem
Something everyone needs to work together to solve. Something where there is collective punishment otherwise. So like nuclear power plant is leaking radiation and will spread if not fixed, type scenario. If fixed a reward, if not, the map is irradiated.
- Duel To The Death
Set their strongest forward to risk their life for a reward, or a punishment if the fight is lost. Win is gear, food, weapons etc. loss is zombie horde, fire, cold snap, etc.
- Weather effects
Cold snap, heat wave, etc. You could reward them collectively based on the number of survivors saved during the event. Or possibly have something desirable within hars way. So a supply crate within deadly weather basically.
~Unique Gear/Captain's Hat~
Love this idea. If possible try and add a buff effect to the hat to make it more desirable. You could also add unique hats the person with the leader hat can assign. That way guards, and farms, builders, etc all are identifiable and have their own buff effect.
Anyhow, that's plenty haha. Loved the video. Much love to you and yours.
/Jon Bon
Great ideas!
Another One: every 5 minutes, a random person who isn't in the Captain's faction gets infected until something is accomplished!
Also should hide deaths in chat

It's like Harvest forgets that there's a difference between things he's seen and heard and what each player has. It isn't hard to remember that not every player knows everything you do about what's going on.
I think you this seems like a safe community id be curious about participating. You all seem to have a lot of fun too.
When your tragic death is overshadowed by someone learning a new dance from a book lol

One "open for all", and in that event, people have to earn something to be "promoted" to next level.
Why not something normally total useless? Money for example :D
The real scripted events, which ARE simply a lot of work, why not limit them to 50. 40 earned and 10 wildcards?
And I think it would be good, if it is more rewarding looting/killing zeds.
AND to get rid of their corpses.
If the zombies-killed count would be of any importance... I guess that would provide more realistic interaction.
If you insert a captain-machanic, everyone should always know, who is in charge.
but: great work! thank´s again
When I had to leave... I paused the stream to continue it later.
Was weird, watching the middle of the vid...with the end-chat
only...
the traderguards where the worst bodyguards ever!
Has anyone lived shorter than the trader ?
The guards should protect the hat at all cost. why not: the first one, they protect with guns, the second one only melee...
The map had too many stories, imo. 2 would be enough. And you HAVE to protect the only entrance, dungeon master ;)
in the end: forget half of what I´ve said.
Great plot twist!
still: Jimik would have been cooler if had gotten victory for his faction instead of revenge ;) Or honour
But the end was the best!
so....zomboid-esk.
like the chat said
"this is how you died"
I like the small maps like the mall and the ship, the factions are really cool. I love these videos so much and there are barely any. Jacob was my favorite in the mall. Long Live Jacob
For an idea if when you do another event like this, try having 1 person per faction or maybe the big factions be the Captain and/or leader to have the meetings to decide which groups do what if they want of course lol.
I love this series, but to adress the initial lack of discord: I think there would be more at stake if resources were more scarce and the captain plays a larger role. For example, if periodically shipments of dwindling supplies become available, perhaps only to the captain, but there isn't enough for everyone, meaning factions have to fend for themselves for scarce resources.
Just sat fown and watched the whole vod. Not something I usually fo but this was fun end to end. I even switched the video over to my living room TV and watched it on the big screen XD
I hope you plan to turn this into a video. The story you can tell would be good I think. Especially the tragic ending.
Suggestion: You use the word "event" to mean two separate things. One "event" essentially refers to the entire stream session, the other "event" refers to the special things that happen every 30-60 minutes. This is confusing. It is clear that you are often confused by this yourself. Just change the name of one of them so you aren't confusing yourself and everyone else.
Just finished watching, I absolutely need to get in on one of these events
Hello. I am new here. These 100 players in zomboid map videos are UA-cam gold. Keep up the fantastic work.
Man, it's sad Bojangles died before he could get the clown costume or the captain's hat. He was my favorite.
i think i may join in on the next one. this looks like way too much fun, ill have to boot up and get warmed up beforehand tho
Choice at the end was good. I think that for events you make emitted videos for maybe have a few other observers
Harvest wanting to see people eat each other for sure
This sounds awesome because I'm a new player and I'm considering joining an event at some point
Best moment when peaches died and BoJangles is asking for his new hat lol
These are great. I think the only thing needed is some sort of incentive to make people comply with following order structures. Im not sure what the tools are for the game but a mod to give a player tools to make people comply in an event like this. The captain could be the only one to spawn in small items for players and have some sort of RL reward if they make it to the end of the event, i dont know try to get a sponsor or something to offer £500, maybe have it so the players have to buy from the sponsor for entry? force people to follow the game rules. Its just an idea but imagine if you can bottleneck and force the railroad problem. They are good enough as they are but just likew in these games, greed gets the better of everyone!
Imagine if a god in irl after a big war says "The next event will begin in 15 mins!" Or if the item of important gets tossed "So you have chosen death!"
Or a Jason or Halloween mod. NPC just going around hacking people to pieces unless you can hide long enough.
There was a wasted opportunity for a clan to name themselves "The Rats" and live under deck inside the ship.
W video game high school reference going to go watch that series now too
are these streams gonna be turned into edited videos? the ones he makes are some of the best videos i've seen on youtube.
Thanks so much! This one is already being cut up by an editor right now.
If you ever need people for this me and my friends would love to be in a simulation
HarvestZ: are you guys ready?
*whole player raid about more air how tight it is*
Kowloon Walled City simulation would be nuts
I could listen to you speak for hours. I'm going to put your streams in a queue as background noise.
Ahem, everyone go to the courthouse!
😴
There is a catgirl in the courthouse!
🧐
The hat should actually have an effect, otherwise what would you expect? It should let the owner do something like execute one person every hour or something, or at least use the speakers to transmit messages across the ship.
Now do a medieval apocalypse event
Maybe in the next event when electing Captain give the captain more exclusive stuff like food or other special things so people wants to fight for it XD
HarvestZ are you planning to make an "cinematic" version of this streaming? like Civilization/mall?
Probably, it’ll be on my ‘harvest’ channel though
@@HarvestZ Thanks, awesome!
10:20 you know someones new when they try to bare hand box a zombie instead of going for the knock down
Jmik is the man, a true avenger!
VGHS man I remember them days
So they can never remember the rules, the script, the event on hand. And all always want to cause more drama. I'm sure they're just playing characters. Truly lol.
i wanted to be here for this but it was at 5am my time :(
0:35 floating shitty is 100x better 😂😂
True
I somehow have a feeling a molotov was put on this guy after death and was framed for trying to kill them all. Justice... 43:24
This is going to make for suchhh a good movie if you make it into one.
2 presidential candidates not long for this world before becoming zombies? 😂
I like the one dead and you're out rule.
HarvestZ thanks for introducing me to this game. Please help me understand though... If D&D games have a Dungeon Master, then does that make you a Zombie Master?
You should have another 1 life in the midle of the game to have more fun in the event😂
Players joining in was good. The reasoning was a little forced I wish The Smuggler had more said they were looking for a home.
I think their kits were fine.
They need to make an aliens mod... that would be dope
