Project Zomboid is an open-world isometric survival horror video game in development by British and Canadian independent developer The Indie Stone. The game is set in a post-apocalyptic, zombie-infested world where the player is challenged to survive for as long as possible before inevitably dying.
'Til Death Us Do Part was a story included in Project Zomboid as its own game mode. It served as the tutorial to introduce new players to the basic concepts of Project Zomboid, like base fortification, scavenging, and fending off hostile undead and survivors.
In 2013, 'Til Death Us Do Part was removed from the game, along with NPC survivors, with the release of version RC 2.9, due to NPCs being far too buggy. The Indie Stone did not abandon the story and have stated they still have big plans for NPCs and the story of Bob and Kate. - Hry

I wish there were more messages like this in the game, something like the police talking about what happened, the husband's attempt to contact his wife by radio, the announcement of the evacuation of the military in Louisville, or the ranger who found the very laboratory in the forest. All this greatly expands the game and makes you believe that you are not alone in Knox Country after all.
There's an awesome mod called "Survivor Radio V3.6.1" on the workshop that adds a few music / voice acted stations that play out through the first few days/weeks.
The civilian radio frequency is somewhat like this, it’s just stories of people surviving for the first week, it unfortunately goes out a little after a week since I’m guessing everyone fell to the virus
Moar lore
The funny thing is i always feel alone listening to cassettes (true music)
On NNR radio a bitten guy comes and gets interviewed how he survived a crazy clash between "crazy" aflicted people and healthy people, then he starts coughing and radio host notices a bite on his arm crazy stuff happens later on...
Nice argument, one small issue… I’m inside your exclusion zone
Maybe he knows the range his radio can transmit? *shrugs*
where's my rape whistle
Nice argument, wtf are you talking about??
Now back it up with a source
@@user-fc1kv7oy1c what the fuck is a source
I wish there was a day 1 mod where the infection starts and you get to witness the chaos as it begins both visually and hearing it over the radio. You spawn in a normal neighborhood or wherever and as you look outside people are running, cars are crashing and the dead start to multiply. You would then be tasked with going out to escape the carnage or hunker down and hide. Meanwhile on the radio you hear panic and disbelief at the situation. It would be the number one workshop mod or better yet the developers could implement it into a setting for the start of the game. Ahhh if only
I think the dev's npc plan will be a little like that, hopefully.
Try superb survivors and set to max survivor pop, day one is horrifying with so much chaos and the following day is eerily quiet.
It’s terrifying

There’s one video tape about someone experiencing “psychotic episodes” where aliens with green heads attempt to eat him, a nod to the old zombie models
They totally looked like aliens in the OG game 😂
@@nerfherder4284 That is what he just said.
@@AlterExo_ it’s also funny because the old models looked like aliens
@@AlterExo_ its pretty interesting considering the zombies used to look like aliens
@@AlterExo_ tbh I too think they looked like aliens, which makes this significantly funnier
Personally, my theory is that the person talking, may be one of the sniper he mentioned, who was sent to the exclusión zone, and when it saw what was happening from afar and how the noises of its gun attracted the zeds. He decide to defect and make this transmision to let every survivor who was hearing him what is going on.
That's actually glorious, the message should be followed by a sniper shot. It would keep player guessing whether that was a sniper or someone who got shot by him.

It'd be cool to have your character have the Panic moodle when you hear that message
I think being sad or depressed would fit better, knowing that the whole world is slowing ending is just depressing.
It'd be cool if komp stopped with the misleading clickbait titles
I wish they would find a lore-friendly way to have more radio broadcasts. They liven up the game so much.
@@Night-ys1ju Hearing the radio message actually gives the panic moodle according to the wiki, so no clickbait here friend :D
@@kompv Yeah but what about "Did You Know About These HIDDEN FEATURES in Project Zomboid?". Those were just removed/future features of the game. There's nothing "HIDDEN" about them. They're not in the game so you can't get them whatever you do.
There is so much analog horror potential in this game. I wish the devs (or modders) dig deeper in this direction.
Same, I think people should in fan made EAS stuff in, heck maybe before the TV stations go down you could have a sound cue of hearing the studio being overran by zombies in real time.
Let's hope we will get some story-focused updates and quests, it would be awesome
Attention, be advised, we have detected no bitches in your area. Stay indoors and boot up league of legends. Do NOT turn on your shower.
Anal log horror
The schizophrenia mod is great for this.
really, the news outlets saying "the knox event is contained" day 1 when surrounded by walking / sprinting undead on all sides is extremely demoralizing, the player already made it a few days in and is alone with no family, spouse or roommates and has no doubt seen shit and got lucky.
Imagine hidding in your own house as you can hear your next door neighbor screaming for help for 30 minutes straight as they're no doubt struggling while being eaten alive and not being able to call the cops for help, or even loved ones. For those few days you're hoping someone will eventually come to rescue you, then to your horror you find out the government is not only covering up whats happening to you, the military is actively hunting you down and preventing you from escaping the undead.
Thanks, Carlos
Its fictional.
@@Mirage-pzYes we know zombies aren’t eating us alive
The one thing I wish they somehow managed to do is extend the amount of time the player has to potentially hear these things. The first few days can be a mad scramble and it's very easy to just totally ignore the radio while youre looting, cooking, and watching TV for easy xp.
I agree! You're stuck in the frenzy of trying to catch all the life and living and the rest of the time is spent surviving so you don't really have much left to tweak the radio around and listen
@@luigidimario Well you're better off gathering VHS and watching them after you get the book boost
@@andreybushev3020I’m going to try that. Never thought of it. Thanks
Reminds me of when I got a functioning car to leave Riverside and I heard a broadcast of a news correspondant about to get swarmed before cutting off. My character got shit scared and so was I lol.
This radio message could be the player character suffering a bit of psychotic break. Full on hearing someone describe all this stuff they manage to suppress or dial back, a subconscious hit that causes that buildup of panic. But hey, that is the beauty of this game. You can interpret everything as you like.
that's part of it, but i think the real beauty is that it's not a story of hope, not a story of surviving against all odds. it's a doomed story from the very start, and the game literally tells you that right when you load in for the first time in a new game. "this is how you died." there's no chance to outlast the apocalypse for you. all it will take is one stroke of bad luck at the wrong time, and you're just another walking corpse in the hordes. maybe someone can outlast it, probably hidden in a bunker or something, but you aren't making it past the apocalypse.
@@ginaran8921 I only had one character realistically get to that point, barricaded up in the farm north of Muldragh. Constantly fighting off illness, spending days burying corpses from zeds that occasionally wander onto the property, dreading when the generator will run out of gas, thus causing the frozen food to spoil and having to rely on the canned stuff, and hoping THAT will last until spring and the farming can begin, but even if it does, what's the point....damn, there's a reason I say this is the best zombo apoc game out there.
@@ginaran8921 tbh that’s just life in general. Each of our lives will abruptly come to a halt someday.
@@f1fanatic241 that's true. we just need to make the most of what time we have. a saying i've heard floating around goes like this: life is only precious because it ends.
I love hidden details like that. especially how it affects your moodles. Wish to see an explanation about the disease in the coming updates. Theres so many of those kinds of broadcasts on radio and on TV
I hope they never confirm anything about how the disease started. More lore sure, but keep the cause vague.
@@Silamon2 I kinda hope that there will be a concrete explanation somewhere eventually. That being said, I want it to be really, REALLY well hidden. Like say, step 1: hear radio broadcast with a set of coordinates, step 2: go there and find additional lore and a code that you have no idea what it's for, step 3: find hidden facility in the woods that needs a code to get inside, step 4: putting in the code also reactivates the building's power causing a massive ass horde to arrive and wake up the zombies inside it so you have to dodge, sneak, fight, and weave through this well designed for gameplay in mind zombie infested facility on a metaphorical death clock as the outside horde closes in and eventually find another set of coordinates, a code, and a note saying that the location at the coordinates is a safe, protected bunker with self sustaining greenhouses and livestock facilities, step 5: depending on how quick you did steps 1-4 you'll either arrive at the promised safe haven or another infested hell hole. If you were very quick, you'll be greeted by soldiers at the gate amazed at the fact that there are still survivors out there, then congratulate you on somehow navigating through that whole infested base to receive that note in order to know to come there, then they have you speak to the man in charge who will then, seeing as the world as we know it has ended, have the head scientist give you the answers you seek, giving more details than are in the dossier copy he also gives you should you be interested in reading it. Arrive there too late, and you'll discover depending on just how late you are that either a mass suicide event occurred, that everyone has starved/dehydrated due to a crop failure, or that by mere chance someone outside must've found the well hidden underground bunker entrance and fumbled with the keypad while screaming to let him in as he's being followed by a horde. Mere rng decides at that point whether the door is found broken with the man's feasted upon corpse, too mangled to be reanimated laying in front of it, or if the outer door was simply opened in an attempt to let the man in, but closed slowly enough that a sizeable number of zombies came through with him and overran the bunker slowly but surely, dooming everyone inside to the fact that their safe haven would be their tomb. No matter your degree of lateness, the dossier can be found in the bunker's lab. The original copy in fact, with more info given within than the one the head scientist gives you if you arrive quick enough. Thus meaning you have to play through the game at least twice, once getting there quick, and once getting there too late, in order to get the full answer. A mystery is only as good as its payoff. Sometimes the point of a mystery is indeed to be unsolvable so it will stick with you forever, but others still yearn to be solved in order to reward you for your diligence in following the clues to do so.
@@Silamon2 The speculation is fun, for example, it's theorized that the "military base" near Rosewood in the forest is where the disease originated from, and it actually being an underground research facility due to elevators being present in a 1 story building, stuff along those lines.
I kinda wish there was a radio channel opposite to this, like there was a radio channel from someone who was finding the Apocalypse fun.
Because you know the more hardcore and paranoid of the preppers would just be laughing their ass off after being proven right, gunning down zombies with the ammunition they've been hoarding for the past 15 years.
I'd envision it as boosting your happiness (who doesn't like to listen to zombies get torn apart by automatic rifle fire?) And possibly even giving buffs to learning various skills (kinda like a " for all those listening, here's what I've found out works" sorta thing) as well.
Realistically, I’d imagine a lot of people would be adverse to hearing the reanimated corpses of their neighbors and friends being rended to shreds by a psychotic gun nut. Best way to survive an apocalypse is to avoid danger, not waste all your ammo just to broadcast it for an ego boost.
@@friendist9323 To go along with what you said, it would be nice to have at one point the prepper dying our if carelessness.
Also cool pfp.
The Top Gear of the apocalypse, if you will
@@friendist9323yeah but there would 100% be some psycho who did that. Who cares if anyone's hearing it? It's the apocalypse so the guy wouldn't even know lmao
When NPCs are added, it'd be cool if you or another group could setup a crude broadcast which covers all of Knox County. From there you could encourage survivors to come find you, ask other communities to come trade with you, etc. It could even be used as a bandit/cannibal trap, like the airforce base broadcasts.
I think it's incredible how well this game has aged considering it's almost 10 years old
quality pixel art games have this tendency, since the artstyle is timeless and scales to whatever resolution you are playing (as long the engine supports it off course)
They basically reworked the game several times over
But it hasn't "aged". It's only improved. It's been in beta since it's inception, they are changing, adding and improving things constantly. Even the graphics are new, I remember watching Robbaz play it in like 2013 and it looked wholly different

Rick from the Walking Dead, I believe the show, but I know in the comic. Used to carry around a radio in which he could talk to Lori on after she died.
Would be cool to see Zomboid explore mental stability.
Perhaps a mentally strong, and mentally weak trait that adds a multiplier to these sort of events occuring.
Imagine after the NPC update, forming a small faction of maybe 3 or 4 people. They all die, each subsequent characters death affects your characters "mental stability."
And then being alone AFTER experiencing so much trauma only adds to the multiplier.
And then low and behold, on your radio, your old "faction members" and friends, perhaps family attempt to contact you on the radio.
Perhaps panicking your character.
You remove the batteries.
"... Hello."
"*Insert character's name*... You let us die... You left us..."
PANIC
Are you gonna talk about Dog Goblin? The VHS tape that makes your character scared?
Dog Goblin? Now I'm intrigued... Do you have any more information pertaining to this?
@@irma9495 it's a terror tape about a group of people summoning the dog goblin. so it doesn't end well it's quite grotesque
I plan on making a video on it soon!
Only the first one, not the sequels. Some of the other non-life and living VHS give small xp bumps as well.
I swear I can never find the 1st tape, I got Dog Goblin 2 and 3 but I've love to know what the OG Dog Goblin says
I played this game religiously before but somehow when I got a warehouse base, I had a sudden bout of loneliness.
I got this huge ass base but I’m alone with hundreds of dead bodies outside. I’ve never felt so lost and lonely going in and out of my base after a trip of gathering supplies.
Ultimately, I closed the game and then never had the urge to come back again.
So S+ to Zomboid for realism! Actually made me feel like I’m in the game as a lone survivor.
I’ll definitely come back when NPCs are added to the single player mode.
Oh that'd really get to me, too. I have a hard time exploring in games without NPCs in the world(s)
I would love to just have a bunker filled with these radios and lure people in (provided the effects stack) so my deaf character just watches them fall apart emotionally
It's slightly dumb that this causes your character to panic. I get that it's an easter egg but like... Your character is in the Exclusion Zone too. They know the dead are rising by the point you hear this.
I thought it was due to realizing the military is killing anyone who tries to leave. Which would make anybody panic, really.
I think it's because this message is basically the guy saying "the snipers are attracting the hordes, the apocalypse is spreading". Which is true, civilization ends up collapsing. The fact that the rest of the world is fucked is not comforting
If anything, this would make me depressed. Stuck in a God-Forsaken county with no way out.
There's always a way out, and those snipers won't last forever.
@@The_Custos They’ll last until I find a sniper rifle of my own.
@@WiseArkAngel it's personal, go short blade.
Saw it on the wiki recently while looking at all the radio/TV transmissions since I know I can't catch all of them. Good to see someone bring this message to light haha.
So maybe this is why there was one time my character was do anxious. I couldn't relate it to the game I played though coz he's already killed about 100 zeds by then. It shouldn't have been a surprise at that point.
Well, if you think about it your character is immune to the airborne strain and obviously hasn't been bitten (or at least hasn't turned) at this point. Could be the news of exactly how the infection spreads that does it, or the news that they can't escape even if they flee Knox County.
Maybe even wondering if they really are immune, or if it's only a matter of time until it gets to them too.
Even with that many kills, not being able to escape under threat of being gunned down by soldiers is still something to be surprised by
@@jamstheshapeshifter My train of thought goes when the military panics, they tend to shoot 'coz that's what they do. They're not cops. The worst case is you have to scout a military post and see if they're calm or in a state of panic. If they're panicking, don't approach, and let their nerves settle.
I mean I guess you have a point in that if you were hoping the military could save you, you would feel betrayed.
It's because the character likely thinks they just need to hold out in order to be saved but nobody is coming to help, the military who is the only hope to stop something like this will gun them down if spotted
When this game is finished in 2055 it will include everything you could possibly conceive of
I have never played or even heard about project zombiod until I watched this video and now I’ve been binging ur whole channel and watching more videos about zomboid lmao. This game seems really cool
*I'm in your exclusion zone.*
We forget that the world can end for people locally, but others can simply be watching it unfold on the news across the world...
I wish you could record these broadcasts to replay at a later date, or were able to find a newstation that had all these broadcasts you could load onto vcrs for yourself to play at a later date.
I think i encountered something like this on a handheld radio once, it's a random frequency with the text talking about some conspiracy or something
I fucking love this game... the amount of attention to detail is so damn good
You have a great voice. Subbed
This is understandably fear and panic inducing
Thank you thank you thank you. I have been telling people to check out the news stories in PZ.
What if the zone is cut off and the only way to get off through the bridge in Louisville
this game makes me wish it was a 1:2 scale of the world
Are there any broadcasts here and there long after the start? Kinda a shame the broadcasts seemed to have ended .. would be cool if there could be broadcasts here and there if you keep scanning the frequencies. I've been doing that every now and then randomly one by one but .. is it a waste of time? Is there never anything again?
These kind of messages are top notch world building
I think this is referencing a creepypasta called "The Government is hiding a new disease, people are turning." which describes this very event happening, but in a different perspective from the one given here. I wont spoil anything incase someone wants to read or listen to it.
Man I can't wait for the npc update to come, imagine randomised dynamic survivor groups that are spread throughout the world and the way find them is buy listening to radio messages or by finding locations that are marked on maps
**the escapists 2 lockdown theme starts playing**
Did you originally say "In your exclusion zone" or something but change it?
Cause like- I have NO clue why people in the comments are saying that when it clearly says "The exclusion zone"
Not sure, but the comments are pretty funny
Just a bit more glitching noise and there we go. *you’ve got clone cop from entropy zero 2.*
i have no idea what this is but now, im intrigue
I'm in her exclusion zone :(
I swear one of these happened on the radio. To my smoker character. He was listening to the radio, took a snoke to take that anxiousness off, then this thing played and his anxiosness SHOT UP to terrified and i had to immediately smoke again.
Kinda funny that 107.6 is an actual radio station here in the Philippines
I dont know much about the game, but this transmission makes me think that this is some sort of government mandated experiment hence the name Project Zomboid and also because they have snipers around. Idk though, Id love to play the game but I dont have a PC
Just to get there and reach the means to broadcast this message should've been a hell of story to tell. Poor exclusion guy :(
It's kind of odd that the military checkpoint with the sniper towers is so chill. Almost no zombies in that bit. Only a bit over a 100 in an entire cell and lots of ammo. It's the one place with LOTS of loot where they didn't cram a lot of zombies that I can think of. You'd expect that the snipers would have attracted a lot of zombies, but they're all chilling in the Hospital and on the Intersection a tiny bit north...
What makes this more creepy is the fact I just recently had a dream about a zombie apocalypse which doesn’t help my anxiety at all! :D
So those random gunshots I seldom hear were snipers shooting zomboids and fleeing humans?
It would be amazing if long term, project zomboid had itself a vast array of story paths to choose from based on what you see hear and do. Like, people asking for rescue, people offering shelter, maybe a collection of clues you can put together to solve the mystery of whats going on and whats behind it. The chopper event can be an early game over or a win if you setup a landing area cleared for arrival it can come pick you up. If you didnt clear it out well enough the zombies swarm you on the escape attempt and well, you know what happens then. All sorts of events take place that can give you something to do like finding a den of cannibalistic survivors and having to deal with them plus all the noise bringing in zombies. Or maybe you find a decent crew and agree to help them out with supplies in exchange for whatever. Or you ignore everything, live your life as you see fit and make a long term sandbox game out of it instead.
I doubt the helicopter would land to pick you up. They're already bending the rules by being *in* the exclusion zone, who knows what'll happen if they help someone escape it
wont happen
I would absolutely not survive in any situation like that, anxiety would kill me much before the zombies
As an admin, I've made for my players a few places that had some interesting notes and loot to find (and it was dangerous too). Wish there were more things like this.
reminds me of RE2 movie: the border scene
I've harshly began falling into Project Zpmboid Thanks to TWO CZcamsrs...
And it all happened because i ran out of Episodes of "The Owl House".
Without it, i need another Piece of Media to fill the Endless void that is my Soul.

Trust in your self trust in instinct
This game is making me nervous and worried because it passed a week by now, and all tv channels and radios ceased bringing new informations
It makes me think that... its all gone
There is no point in surviving anymore, just put a end to my suffering but I gotta keep going on
the message is unsettling but that outfit is nice
"Oh, thanks Captain goddamned OBVIUS"
-Me
radio man: states the obvious
player: panicked pikachu
This message: " good luck survivor, even the army won't help you"
The guy that survive 1000 days in the game
"attracts the dead", that's why army need to learn how to make Baseball Bat and Spear
In "your" exclusion zone... like... there are more? (not regions firstly affected by the disease but exclusion zones that were sealed off)
discomforting.....
Do you have cotton in your ear and fingers in your eyes? It doesn't say "your".
your wasn't said lmao
This needs a mod to give a good ending.
They got snipers and The noise attracts the dead. Ngl that means a horde of a very large size would be able to overrun that quarantine like its nothing with all that gunfire going on
Does it still cause panic if you're using the veteran occupation?
It would be epic if they put sone more lore in the game
Wait so only Kentucky is infected?
Nice
New update? I haven't played in so long so idk what updates have been made.
What's the mean of fzzt with black word? I don't know how to get in
Bruh I felt panic by hearing that wtf
fever? so this is a green flu l4d2 crossover?
You should probably put the name of the game in the title, I never clicked this because I thought it was like Animal Crossing or something based on the character and only learned my mistake when clicking by accident
I was under the impression that in the US, terrestrial radio stations had to end in an odd number in the tenths place. (e.g. 107.5 or 107.7 would be valid, but not 107.6). Guess that's confirmation this game is taking place in an alternate dimension.
ah yes, this gonna go into my clickbait collection!
its a real thing check out the official project zomboid wiki he just voice acted it
Hello, has it happened to anyone that on the emergency transmission frequency, there is a person asking for help? It just happened to me right now when I comment on this and I've been surviving for about 5 months. Does anyone know if this is some kind of vanilla event?
One hour? More like, Cower.
Is it really in the game? I doubt it has any actually voiced lines.
*quivers in red panda onesie*
we need Matpat
how do you get these anonymous freq.? just strollimg through the world and checking radios?
Yes, most of the radios freq are random each play through for an extra challenge
Doubt
That is surprisingly creepy. I really like as expecting you to jumpscare at the end, if only to break the tension.
That being said, I hope they add more more like this. Very nice.
u sound like ur reading out in front of the class lol

I like this hidden content, but I often miss it. We need a mod to find those and learn everything
What game is this?
Interesting. Gives me an idea for a mod that introduces a eldritch trait that gives the player a buff or debuff where they are motivated to create depictions of cthulhu or some shit
I like when news broadcasts and radio messages affect your moodles. I just wish they did it more. Having 90% of the most demoralizing news broadcasts make you happy and not bored just doesn't sit right with me. Even as a cosmetic (since it has no function) anger moodle appearing when you hear how the government is covering it up. Like, 'no evidence of fatality' should just make your character angry. That's just my two cents anyway
talk with your back straight
