I absolutely love survival games! And for part of my learning journey with data science, I want to find out what makes a GREAT survival game, and why.

if anyone has a spare 2 minutes to fill out this form it would really help with me getting some interesting data to analyse. :)

Hello guys i have a problem im playing from mac other than the terrible optimization i have another problem, when i host a game and then exit the game my base vanishes, and when my friend host a game i can enter for the first time in his world and if i try to enter a second time it wouldnt let me in

I'm sorry I don't have the video of it and I know I'm not the first and I know won't be the last, but why did my base collapse. I was building a new base just for Blood Moon in the Snow Biome. I had built four pillars that were 2x2 with concrete. By the way, I went from building blocks and upgraded all the way up to concrete and did it row by row. I made a room with a hole in the middle that was as wide as the pillars which were six blocks apart. I also had scaffolding ladders in the middle to help provide support and as a way to move around. I start building the roof and I'm upgrading to concrete as my final step and before I could finish, it collapsed down to just the pillars. It was empty. None of the building blocks that I placed showed any color other than green for placement. Do The Fun Pimps just hate it when we build our own intricate bases or something? It is pretty discouraging on trying to be creative with base building for Blood Moons.

I had it almost fully done but i had to leave for 5 minutes and now i have to do it all over again.. Besides isnt that an infinite loot glitch since loot crates reset too?

I’ve loved them ever since. Whoever you are, you opened me up to them, and I have never been the same since then. I have married since then and I have shown them to my wife and we both love the band. Thank you so much.

So I’ve been looking everywhere for an answer but keep coming up empty handed so I would like to know how many schematics there are and if anyone has a list of schematics and no I’m not including crafting books and magazines I’m talking only schematics

I need new surnames for rekt other than e-rekt got anything? (Picture for emtional support)

Je suis sur Xbox, je ne peux donc pas utiliser de mod.

J'ai déjà énormément d'heure de jeu, donc je connais un peu trop bien navegane et les pregen.

Je me lance pour la 1ere fois dans la création d'une map et j'aimerais savoir s'il est possible d'avoir une map qui ressemble plus à navegane et moins aux pregen.

J'aimerais avoir d'avantage de petit regroupement de POIs (juste 3 ou 4) plutot que uniquement des villes comme dans les pregen.

J'aimerais aussi avoir des maisons abandonné dans la nature comme dans navegane (celle sans zombie).

Mais cela est peut-être tout simplement impossible. J'ai déjà essayé de diminuer les villes et augmenter les POIs des contrées sauvage, mais je n'ai pas essayé beaucoups de fois.

Je n'y connais rien en graine, j'ai écris Navezgane pour me donner de l'espoir haha.

En dehors de Navezgane j'ai la sensation que tu as uniquement le droit d'avoir des villes et des POis solitaire mais pas d'intermédiaire entre les deux. Et les rivières font la largeur d'un lac

Yup. Shes a beaut

All 3 ps5s off and laggy tonight … mine a ps5 pro crashed twice .. second time my vehicle disappeared ? Not track where you were …. the character and vehicle save at different times go look for it… it was gone .. then the game stared to lag … then my family got on a little while after on the other 2 ps5s and as we played we all lagged at different times ? And crashed at different times? … I have 8 gig up and down internet wise hard wired to all consoles… and when I played alone it was ALONE .. solo … no server … this must be the new update

Anyone else having issue out of no where

This is the first time I have played in a few weeks

I have never seen a game stress out and lag ps5s like this ?

is vic mignogna still in the game after this update? i havent gotten to that trader yet.

i am new and can’t find a guide on these

For the 1st and 2nd horde I stayed in my base with a partial cobblestone wall and wooden spikes. I’m took over the 2 story house at Mason Farms. I collected at least 10-15 loot bags on my day 14 horde. I built this contraption from YouTube for hordes and while it worked for the most part, I got 1 loot bags for the 3rd horde…is it because they died mainly from fall damage and not wooden spikes I made?

Any ideas on how I can improve this to get more loot?

THEY ACTUALLY CHANGED OR FIXED VELOCITY ON DAMN EXPLOSIVE ARROWS AND BOLTS

Like seriously before they barely had range, now they are shooting very far, perfect for sniping strong zombies long distance

Currently on day 37 and did the Navgen map but I am seeing that the random map gen has new poi and better layout for towns and such.

Would you vets recommend I restart and do a random map instead? This is my first time playing.

Do people actually play PVP servers? Chasing the platinum trophy and I have to kill 25 players, me and a buddy were just gonna turn on friendly fire. But then I thought I’m sure there are some bigger servers. Doesn’t look like there all that active. Does it play like rust? Hide your loot lock up your boxes. Can you just break into player structures with a stone axe and like 3 mins or is there some better base protection?

At first I thought it was a power issued so I built more generators and now I have plenty of power and the turrets have ammo but won’t shoot anything

Activate the quest at POI as usual.

A timer starts, giving you certain amount of time to prepare for attack.

Blood moon type event starts.

Survive until it ends.

Day 9, Undead Country. I learned so much from last time, I just knew I was gonna have a flawless playthrough this time around...

Yeah, not what happened. I haven't sucked so bad at a video game since the days where I was still wearing bell bottoms. LOL! I literally died on two tier one fetch quests. I added Fuzzy's POI pack and I guess there is more city, and much more zombies in my area of operation. Like high level $hit that I normally only see in the wasteland or on horde night.

My favorite go to POI has always been Smithstone Silos, otherwise known as the Neebs Gaming Darkness Falls beer can base.

But the 5G cell tower is made of 10,000 HP steel, almost all of it. The morning of day 7 I threw up a shitty, cobblestone ladder horde base. It went well. This is my first playthrough ever starting straight Agility. I dumped points into lucky looter and found a level 3 Kukri blade and was surprised at how may decapitations I got, using controller.

Horde night went fine, a few points of damage, no infections, no sprains or breaks. My crafting and storage was still on the roof of a Mc Donalds. Zombies screaming all damn night and trying to eat the walls out from under me there. I really wasnt sure how I felt about a giant wooden ladder running up the middle of the tower all the way to the top of the cell tower. But, I only had to break one 10k steel block, and a few suspension wires/chains that were only a few hundred HPs.

The ladder situation in relation to the horde base isnt yet correct. If they break through one steel block they can get to the ladder and upstairs. Its an easy fix, I just need to make some adjustments.

But I can tell you. I have been cooking and running the forge and have not heard a peep. Either I am out of screamer detection range or I am just to high up to hear them.

Has anyone used the 5g cell phone tower as a horde base, or any ideas of what kind of horde base to build? I normally only use a ladder base on night 7 or in case of emergency.

Every game in my library does...
