    honestly just here to spread some love but I gotta say, this has got to be one of the most important CZcams channels for gaming. I've been watching most of your videos for years now. there is a decent amount of games I have played and genuinely enjoyed that I would have never found otherwise. It only stands to reason that that's true for plenty of other people as well, it's truly a beautiful thing of value you've built with this channel, amazing work.

      Looks like another "let's make CDDA but with good graphic", I don't think any of those projects managed to get out of alpha, since it's basically small teams trying to rewrite AAA amount of game. I would caution against enthusiasm.
      Never mind, even the creator kinda refers to it as "CDDA mixed with Project Zomboid". Looks very interesting but lacks that community-driven obscenely massive amount of content.

      @johnsamos3721 Před rokem

      @Fedor Silva I think your best bet for that sorta game is Zomboid itself with some mods for QOL. Some skills can be changed up from mods like the Journal mod that makes it to where you can save all your skill points even if you die. Makes it a bit easier. C:DDA punishes you more with less information unless you sorta deep dive some guides or forums. But, I personally think C:DDA rewards better than any sandbox zombie game out there. They really make you feel like a badass late game.

    This is an incredible solid early build of the game, holy hell. Seeing things like being able to pick up bullet casings to reload and the minor details like the fluid volume in bottles shows that there's a lot of care being put into this.

I always felt the crafting and inventory system in project zomboid was a weak point, while the combat was much more satisfying. The inventory in neoscavenger is great. The world and world interaction in CDDA is its strong point. Really seems like this game combines lots of of best elements of all of these popular games

If the dev keeps focused on the single player game loop, it's probably going to be a nice solid experience.

    Another funny Spanish joke that is similar to the "como se dice un zapato en ingles?", is - "cómo se dice diez cacahuates en inglés?" The answer is "ten peanuts." Please forgive the butchering of the Spanish language I am about to do (because I have never seen it written out, only spoken). When someone with a Spanish accent says, "ten peanuts," it sounds like a Spanish slang word, "tempinas." Tempinas is a word that, VERY SUGESTIVELY, means "bend over."
    If the joke gets a little over told in your friend group, when someone asks, "cómo se dice diez cacahuates en inglés," you reply, "tu tempinas." "You bend over," in other words.
    I think (I had to do some quick research) the actual Spanish root word of the joke is "empinar," which means "to tip up" or "to raise up."

      I recommend the Bright Nites mode for CDDA. It prioritizes QoL/Fun over Realism/Simulation. It basically dumps a lot of bloated complexity (freezing, dissections, pockets, fatigue, etc) and adds back in a lot of fun stuff that got removed (late game weapons and bionics). It also adds quests and lore, with the goal of giving the player the option to "win" against the cataclysm similar to Fallout: New Vegas (Quests and NPCs are WIP as usual).
      Cuz lets be honest here. If Dwarf Fortress veterans are claiming CDDA has gotten more complex than DF - by ANY metric - it might be time to reign back the runaway train open source development bloat.
      Note: Despite the differences in opinion and philosophy between "mainline" CDDA (which is itself a fork of DDA) and BN, there's still cross contribution of QoL and gameplay features across both versions. BN is just a bit slower and more selective about the rate and types of PRs.

      @@r3dp9 while the direction of dda has just gone to shit, i cannot abide the removal of pockets. pockets are one of the best features they've added in a long while.

    9mm revolvers are actually very common. But not on their own. Usually they're 9mm conversion cylinders for more normal calibers or even blackpowder.
    So you just pop out the regular cylinder and slot in the 9mm, and boom plinking on a budget.
