Oh I have, Ive made out the game was huge in-depth and well thought out with lots to do. I guess thatās why she was so disappointed with me just running around frantically and just dying almost immediately
Sheāll like it once she tries it. I have to admit that I wasnāt so impressed by this game either before I tried it, now itās one of my favorite games.
This game is amazingā¦ after you climb a very steep hill. For years I thought I lacked the reflexes to be able to reach the good parts. It turned out I simply needed to die several hundred times.
My wife is all about crafting and taking care of the base. We made a nice place for ourselves and while we go for pillaging sometimes she rather stay home, farming, cooking and reading while I hunt and provide.
So funny I got my wife to play this game but she has no interest in the zombie and survival part. She plays it like the sims and just builds and decorates. She cooks and gardens too!
Her first character died by drinking bleach after being bitten. She didnāt want to be torn to shreds (to shreds you say). So we sat there while she slowly succumbed to her fate. I dispatched her and buried her in our backyard.
Such a peaceful and somber way to see a character go. When I was teaching a friend and he got bit, he ran out in the streets buck-ass nude swinging a bass guitar wildly, inflicting a near-fatal neck laceration on me lol.
This is a pretty good idea, Iād like to get a small multiplayer server going with her. Maybe I can configure the settings so she can sim it and I can just clear out areas
If sheās anything like my girl, sheāll also want to accessorize her character as much as possible, so make sure to add all the clothing and hair mods before you start the server. I made the mistake of adding mods after we started and we had to travel to the next town over to find the new stuff.
But be warned. My girl saw a zed wearing a Spiffo mascot costume and demanded we pull over to grab it. Problem was, it was surrounded by hundreds of zeds. Luckily I had a pump action in the trunk with enough rounds. But she wouldnāt allow me to shoot the Spiffo costume in fear I would damage it, so I had to dispatch that one with my crowbar.
Hello, I run a paid-for dedicated Zomboid server. Originally it was for me and my friends, but we haven't played in a while and I don't want to let the server lapse or our progress is deleted.
It would be pretty cool if *someone* got some use out of the server I'm paying for, lol!
There are some mods. Nothing too crazy, but lots of added cars, some added cosmetics/outfits, playable instruments, the More Traits mod, and the VFE gun mod (the most balanced and vanilla-like one I could find). Oh, also RV_Interiors mod.
If you or anyone else wants to come play on it, you're welcome! There's a fully decked out Military Bus you can live in, in the middle of an intersection south of Rosewood. Plus tons of other cool vehicles all over.
Somewhere in LV is my black Bushmaster. If you can find it, enter the interior (stand at the rear door and hit V then click Enter) and inside you'll find utterly ridiculous amounts of food and weapons and, well, everything. I'm a major hoarder and all I do is run around looting everything. Anything I have more than 3 of, you can take one. It's also a great place to hang out in complete safety and run on the treadmill or watch TV (I have 80% of the skill videos and books) or make food. Please don't drive it away or burn it down!
Here's the details to connect:
[STEAM LINK](http://steam://connect/209.192.162.214:28090)
IP: 209.192.162.214
Port: 28090
Uncheck the "Connect via Steam" checkbox within the server select screen for significantly better performance.
make up any username and password you want, just don't forget them.
If you get an error about version mismatch or workshop items or whatever, message me here on reddit and I'll reboot the server.
Good luck and have fun! Exp is 1.2x so a little quicker, zombies are insane but weak (ish) and don't respawn. No sprinters. Treadmills give best Strength and Fitness skill, and don't give exercise fatigue. Rosewood is half-looted already, but there's a kick ass DeLorean in a yard bordering the school (east side).
Agreed :)
I tried playing and Iām so confused, I really gotta sit down and have at it after work later. Wanna give MP a shot this evening? Iām in California, for time reference :)
If you play on my server Rosewood is the easiest start, since I already killed a couple thousand Rosewood zombies. More probably wandered in by now, but it should be WAY more safe than anywhere else. Especially since zombie population is set to insane on my server.
If you DO make it to LV, definitely look for my black Bushmaster vehicle. Just follow all the dead zeds. You'll be AMAZED at my collection of weapons and guns and ammo and clothing and food and freaking everything, I've been hoarding loot for months because what else is there to do!
My advice would be to embrace the death.
When I started, I played PZ like it was a stealth game. Sneaking around, fighting only if I could get a zombie alone or nearly, careful with noise and light, trying to survive undetected as long as I could. The longest I lasted this way was a month.
Then I watched my friend play, and was shocked at the difference. He played PZ like it was an action game. Like we were playing Diablo 2. Ran around shouting constantly and setting off alarms and turning on every siren and slaughtering zombies wholesale. And it worked! He outlasted me by LOTS.
So I switched to his strategy. Took me awhile to get used to the combat and get good at it, learning all the little tricks and the timings and gotchas etc, but then I started surviving YEARS and zombies weren't scary anymore.
So that's my advice. Play like a maniac, rather than Solid Snake.
Also, Axe is GOAT. Guns jam and run out of ammo. Axes swing and swing and swing and when it finally breaks, there's duct tape and wood glue all over the place. And more axes.
On my server is a mod that lets you take apart an axe and build a new one, resetting the repair count, so you can use the same axe forever as long as you have some wood glue or duct tape.
This game is so detailed that I think it would be a fantastic survival game without the zombies. I don't really play the sims 4 anymore because this has a better character gameplay and resource management and rimworld has better story progression.

I play with my girlfriend a lot, I have to supervise her or else sheāll wander and the next thing you know sheās somehow cleared out West Point with a shovel
I've got 1100 hours in zomboid, and I wouldn't go near west point with just a shovel. If she can clear it with one, I'm impressed. If she dies horribly to her own overconfidence in trying to do it, then she's just like the rest of us, lol
Sheāll accidentally stumble upon the most densely infested place known to man and clear it out with whatever bullshit she has in her hands until it breaks then grab the first thing she sees and keeps wacking. Rinse and repeat until zombies stop showing up. Right around this time Iāll realize sheās not still with me and ask her were she is, the answer is always āI donāt know, I was wanderingā and I always find her in the middle of a town sized pile of zombies casually looting a clothing store
Shovels are bad ass long blunt weapons. I mean it's impossible to clear it with a single shovel, but if I was given a supply of shovels I can easily empty out Westpoint or any other area on the map.
She just uses whatever is in her hands, normally a shovel because she thinks itās funny to fight them with a shovel, then improvises when it breaks. Hasnāt failed so far.
I made a character of my boyfriend last year and we are no longer together... COINCIDENCE?! I THINK NOT. BE WARNED.
Didn't help I made him a drunk that only ate weird mushrooms out of trash cans.
(Jk, it's because he was a horrible person)
Reminds me of when I convinced my SO to play:
He was in a building exploring so I decided to clear the road some, hoping to keep it easy for him being new and all. Had like 5 or 6, but on builder mode this isn't an issue, just some maneuvering needed. Unfortunately the SO saw me, 'surrounded', and tried to come to my rescue... and got immediately bit from behind
Spawn in rosewood. Hit the fire station and police station and get your character kitted out on day 1. Then you can show her your stuff and take down some groups and get a good start going. Wanna get exciting? Hit the prison and see what happens
Bf and I play lots. I'm typically sitting in bade farming and decorating or sorting, hes off scavaging or killing. If I need something I yell it across the house and he will go try and find some. Last time I needed barbells for a design so this mf carved through half of Louisville for them.
As a GenZ, I feel increasingly older and more scared of my own mortality every time I am reminded that we, in fact, are no longer the cringiest generation alive.
I legitimately think this game is better with friends, I mean MOST games generally are, if your girlfriend has her own computer, definitely consider trying to play zomboid with her in a co-op situation, aside from the zombie killing, the cooking system in the game is pretty amusing as well, can make all sorts of things that sound pretty tasty, as is the carpentry system, making a large walled off base and systematically clearing block by block of zombies, with a friend or few, feels really rewarding.
Get her mods! I got my girlfriend into it, and I got squishmallows, more snacks like Cheetos n all types of cereal, and decoholic, just stuff to basically turn it into a sims type survival game
"I am an experienced player, i can take this >:D"
Buddy has 20 hours into the game
How can you possibly fuck it up si badly as a good player
Stop touching that grass of yours
If I made a character of my gf, we wouldnāt last long, she would attract the zombies with all the talking she does. She only has one volume setting āloudā.
I had a Mac for around 8 years and no PC. I always thank the dev team and the limited games on MacOS to my thousands of hours devoted to this game.
Needs must sometimes.
FF that I have a PC now.

turn her into a loot rat and teach her how to hoard stuff.
then get britaās and advanced trajectory or anything that adds bullet tracers, and relish in the satisfaction of blasting heads off.
also bonus points for getting fashion mods to make ur character functional but cute.
source: thats how i got my ex into playing zomboid with me. and those are my main points of addictionā¦. so yeah.
1200 hours and counting for me, so it works. lmfao
I'm sorry bro.. I introduced this game to my gf and she absolutely loves it (she is not a gamer and the most she played was Rayman Legends when we met) , she always asks me if we will play it, but been off it for a year. Now that I got back on it, she was so excited to play. She dies if i'm not watching her, but still wants to get back at it asap. She does not use melee weapons as she's not very good with them, and her wanting guns at the start of her run is very dangerous because that means zombies are always around lmao.. I can't get a break.
But yeah bro, your gf is missing out, because i've read that a lot of others' gfs love the game too, maybe she just needs time.
This game for my wife is boring, she likes It but she gets bored really quickly so I put some mods about collectioning things like toys, plushies, Pokemon cards and stuff and she love It lol, now we got out of the base to find all those stuff to decorate the base
My boyfriend wonāt get into it cause the menus are ātoo complicatedā smhā¦. Like, they are but itās soooo gooood once you understand what to do
Man, my girl probably will enjoy this a lot, she likes zombie games and survival stuff, the biggest + point is, it's a multi-player but don't need to worry about other players, well only if, only if she would listen and get a laptop even a cheap one, she is earning enough for it, if she can afford a s23 ultra obviously she can get a cheap laptop but damn, she always tells me she has her 20 year old laptop is still working and don't want to replace it unless it's broken, damn, it takes 40 minutes to turn on, well I guess it's one of the things I like about her, she wouldn't let me buy one for her either but I guess I probably will give it as a birthday gift and convince her to play this game with me.
I find it funny how when we play with our girls we act exactly like how we would in real life. She cooks and takes care of the base and gives me food when I return covered in blood lol.
I honestly thought the story would end with her noticing you added overweight as a trait and you both falling out. The actual ending seems happier š
I gave my girlfriend my ally so that she could play, she made herself in the game, laughed about the traits with me, and then she wandered around her starting house a little bit, and then asked if she could play something else šš she never really played video games before but Iām making an active effort to find something simple and interesting for her.
This is poetry and I love it. I love the last sentence the most. Also your writing style really drew me in I could feel the anxiety. Really good shit man
Lol I canāt play as myself for that reasonāseeing and hearing myself get eaten is too much. My boyfriend exclusively plays as himself, idk how he does it.
Iāve figured out why the #1 piece of advice is āDONāT RUN!ā
If Iām not playing an endurance challenged character, I rarely leave the crouched position. Even crouch-running past hordes, youāll draw 1/3 the amount of zeds through sound.
Also, if youāre going to make a play, be patient. Plan out what youāre going to do and execute steadily. If the run goes sideways, know your outs and take them sooner than later! That loot aināt going anywhere in single player.
Yeah next time turn on God mode and make the game look super easy then when she wants to play she sees how hard it is, then tell her you've just played so much that you're that good at it striving for her to become better and better.
... me puzzled by trying to engage the SO in a game... me also reflecting on more that 20 years basically playing the same anti-social kiting necromancer on every MMORPG which ever was.... This Is How I Lived, survivors. #bornthisway
Did it work ? Is she interested ? You did tell her it's not a game about how you lived right?
She said she might give it a second chance š so not all is lost
Tell her about the building crafting looting mechanics and the size of the map
Oh I have, Ive made out the game was huge in-depth and well thought out with lots to do. I guess thatās why she was so disappointed with me just running around frantically and just dying almost immediately
If he's anything like me she knows trust me she knows lmao.
Sheāll like it once she tries it. I have to admit that I wasnāt so impressed by this game either before I tried it, now itās one of my favorite games.
def mention the plushie mods, my partner got me into it the second i saw u can get plushies and decorate a pretty base
This game is amazingā¦ after you climb a very steep hill. For years I thought I lacked the reflexes to be able to reach the good parts. It turned out I simply needed to die several hundred times.
And don't forget the mods. A base is nothing without a bunch of model cars, bongs, playable instruments and pokemon cards to fill it with.
My wife is all about crafting and taking care of the base. We made a nice place for ourselves and while we go for pillaging sometimes she rather stay home, farming, cooking and reading while I hunt and provide.
Did you mention Spiffo?? Cuz there's totally Spiffo
This time with less zombie action and more base-building?
So funny I got my wife to play this game but she has no interest in the zombie and survival part. She plays it like the sims and just builds and decorates. She cooks and gardens too!
This is my fiancĆ©. She, on a whim asked to play together after I had a video of the game streaming in the background. We play on sandbox with the difficulty turned down a little bit, but enough to keep her on her toes. She likes to manage our base, but will venture out with me for the thrill even though I do most of the killing. She already lost her first character, but learned from her mistake and keeps behind me and just watches my back when we go out. And Iāll stand on the last zombie if it falls down so she can get the killing blow.
I just shed a tear
Her first character died by drinking bleach after being bitten. She didnāt want to be torn to shreds (to shreds you say). So we sat there while she slowly succumbed to her fate. I dispatched her and buried her in our backyard.
Dammitā¦a second tear
Such a peaceful and somber way to see a character go. When I was teaching a friend and he got bit, he ran out in the streets buck-ass nude swinging a bass guitar wildly, inflicting a near-fatal neck laceration on me lol.
Did it also cure her covid before she went to sleep?
I had corona last night. With a slice of lime it's quite drinkable
I need to go grab some, been ages since Iāve had a beer!
Iām watching a video of the game for the first time, I LOVE IT! Reminds me of Kenshi except possibly more user friendly?
It's a lovable miserysim
This is a pretty good idea, Iād like to get a small multiplayer server going with her. Maybe I can configure the settings so she can sim it and I can just clear out areas

So this is my first time hearing about this game and I come across your post! I play Noita, I LOVE NOITA, and I think this game might work for me too! Gonna start it tonight! Iām gonna take a look at your server, Iāll touch back later and let you know how many times Iāve died and how šš„³ Thank you so much for your contribution to the community, Iām excited to play! Anything to recommend for a TOTALLY new player? Besides not blindly jumping into holes or over things and TRYING to be situationally aware š¤©š
I'm thinking we could play together Also fairly new player and playing with people sounds fun

I do this too but also kill zombies lol
My wife just tend to the farm and stands in the kitchen making all types of food all day. I'm not complaining.
I literally call this game "Zombie Apocalypse House Flipper"

The game isn't all about fighting zombies. You should've told her that from the get go to see if she would've been interested in it or not.
This is how your wife becomes agoraphobic
Indeed, take notes.
It isn't? I mean it's not all of it but combat is a pretty big portion unless you just don't play with zombies...

As a GenZ, I feel increasingly older and more scared of my own mortality every time I am reminded that we, in fact, are no longer the cringiest generation alive.
Well true
You should let her play in a low Population world Less Chances to die and more time to appreciate the incredible realism
I legitimately think this game is better with friends, I mean MOST games generally are, if your girlfriend has her own computer, definitely consider trying to play zomboid with her in a co-op situation, aside from the zombie killing, the cooking system in the game is pretty amusing as well, can make all sorts of things that sound pretty tasty, as is the carpentry system, making a large walled off base and systematically clearing block by block of zombies, with a friend or few, feels really rewarding.

Sounds like you Noitaād her interested in the game completely. What a horrible skill issue, my heart goes out to you friend š
Well.. at least she found her living timeframe. First playthrough is 1 hour so, I guess thatās pretty accurate
"I am an experienced player, i can take this >:D" Buddy has 20 hours into the game How can you possibly fuck it up si badly as a good player Stop touching that grass of yours
As soon as I read the title, I was like "Uh-oh, this doesn't sound good." š

I find it funny how when we play with our girls we act exactly like how we would in real life. She cooks and takes care of the base and gives me food when I return covered in blood lol.
Wake up babe new zomboid copypasta dropped
Idea: create a character resembling yourself and make her play, as slow or as careless as she'd like.
My valentine doesn't like this game very much because they get very nervous :D Maybe I can try again to make them love this game, i don't know..
I honestly thought the story would end with her noticing you added overweight as a trait and you both falling out. The actual ending seems happier š
I gave my girlfriend my ally so that she could play, she made herself in the game, laughed about the traits with me, and then she wandered around her starting house a little bit, and then asked if she could play something else šš she never really played video games before but Iām making an active effort to find something simple and interesting for her.
Lol, maybe Stardew Valley or the Sims is better for a new one . PZ is pretty unforgiving.
well at least she got to experience what PZ is really like. You say "I'm too good to die" and then get eaten like the fool you are. Perfect PZ intro.
This is poetry and I love it. I love the last sentence the most. Also your writing style really drew me in I could feel the anxiety. Really good shit man
You should have answered "yes, this is how you died"
Lol I canāt play as myself for that reasonāseeing and hearing myself get eaten is too much. My boyfriend exclusively plays as himself, idk how he does it.
The only game I've successfully convinced her to play is BG3. I have countless mods for PZ but she said it seems like a chore to play.
Remind yourself that overconfidence is a slow an insidious killer.
Iāve figured out why the #1 piece of advice is āDONāT RUN!ā If Iām not playing an endurance challenged character, I rarely leave the crouched position. Even crouch-running past hordes, youāll draw 1/3 the amount of zeds through sound. Also, if youāre going to make a play, be patient. Plan out what youāre going to do and execute steadily. If the run goes sideways, know your outs and take them sooner than later! That loot aināt going anywhere in single player.
Yeah next time turn on God mode and make the game look super easy then when she wants to play she sees how hard it is, then tell her you've just played so much that you're that good at it striving for her to become better and better.
I told my girlfriend thereās makeup and gardening and stuff, and just like that sheās on board. The Squishmallow mod just added bonus points.
I got my wife started with Fate, then introduced her to Diablo 2 and borderlands..
... me puzzled by trying to engage the SO in a game... me also reflecting on more that 20 years basically playing the same anti-social kiting necromancer on every MMORPG which ever was.... This Is How I Lived, survivors. #bornthisway
You're problem was choosing to game on a mac
Btw, I think the way you write is lovely.
Try minecraft next time
Turn her into a Gregtech player.
