Today’s game is Project Zomboid. The new public build of Build 42 fixed my controller problems, and i’ve been basically thirsting for Zomboid these last few months. So getting to play it again is like finding an oasis. I got my friends on too (this is why it’s a 4:3 Crop, to hide their personal info the game shows), and we made camp at the motel where we made our first ever base back when it was just Jerry and Cable.
To celebrate the return to the public branch we’re playing Jerry and Cable, who is by far my favorite "OC"s me and my best friend have made, if you can really call them that.

They changed some of the presets around i believe, because when we spawned in i was struggling to find myself a car that had gas and a key, meanwhile like every god forsaken rare item is spawning for me. I found sledge hammers, guns, even a can opener which i always struggle with. We’re on builder too which is what makes it especially confusing. I did manage to find a car and a Jerry Can to fill it with gas though so it’s not all a failure. It definitely made me feel more successful.

One of my favorite things about the new update is the animals. I found some chickens that were abandoned, and bless Jerry’s cruel heart but he found something he could actually love. I built them a coop. I read up on everything i need to keep them fed and happy, so that should keep them alive.
One of our friends wants to eat them, but i convinced him to let me take care of them because that will give us eggs which will keep us alive and fed far longer.

Anyways, i’m glad to have this back in a state i can play. I missed it and i love all the new Build 42 Stuff they added. I’ll probably see if i can get some friends on again tomorrow to play some more because i missed this.


It’s actually not, it’s only disabled by default. The speed up will only take affect the moment every single player is sleeping, so it’s not something you’d want in a massive public server with 73 players online, but for a small group of friends it works fine. Highly recommended, unless you like sitting around for 30 IRL minutes reading in the dark every night. Speaking of, one thing that IS exclusive to singleplayer is unfortunately the fast forward button, so reading really sucks and I always turn up skill gain speeds in MP.
