Is Lemmy really planning on selling the game and cashing out?
Is that why they fired half the staff?

Just two more weeks until we get fully fledged NPCs with deep backstories and capable of performing a billion actions and giving you unique quests so you can hire them into your colony where you can rebuild civilization from scratch.

After 41 released Lemmy said the next big feature would be NPC's. Just gonna do a little crafting/balance update in the mean time.He also said they would continue to discuss NPCs in future blogs.They did exactly two blogs discussing NPCs and in 5 years they still haven't even finished their 'smaller crafting update'.They are just so full of shit its fucking unreal.

no. far from half the staff, a small handful of people who didn't really do very much."the leaker" specifically did like 2 months worth of work over the period of 5 years, and the only way for him to protect his ego was to pretend it was a big conspiracy.not being sold.

MP might have desync and bugs and dupes and braindead exploits but at least it doesn't have mods anymore either

>Game has semi-detailed calorie and weight system
Oh cool, so big fatasses can survive off their body fat without eating for a while?
>Lol no we also have a stupid hunger moodle which can kill you, yes you can die just because you're hungry
Thanks Lemmy.

the dumbest thing for me in this game is the fact that the crowbar is denied its one and only purpose in vanilla gameplay. i could actually give the benefit of the doubt for a lot of the bullshit in this game but the fact i need a mod downloaded in order to use the crowbar like a crowbar and bust open doors is actually retarded. Its like in universe humanity developed the crowbar as a weapon and not a fucking tool. the fact theyve never fixed this with a patch or something in all the years this game has existed makes me want to harm indie stone developers

We are coming up with new tactics to get the developers in trouble, to try force intel. We could utilize their social medias, fabricate messages and/or try to spiral further problems for them if they do not talk. This will be in response to the Baph reveal where it was discovered no work on NPCs has been done.

Have these niggers TRIED biting through kevlar? It only takes a couple layers and no human could possibly pierce it. You'd have to be savaged by large dogs or cougars or some shit for a piercing tooth

It has reached my ears and, I dare say, quite piqued my interest that the matter of the "wheelchair" has been brought to the fore. A most ingenious contrivance for the promotion of mobility, wouldn't you agree? I find myself quite taken with the notion of its inclusion within our little pastime; it would surely add a dash of dash, as it were.Furthermore, I have been regaled with the most scandalous and spirited intelligence regarding the dismissal of that particular developer! By Jove, the news is positively electric. In the vacuum left by their rather abrupt departure, one can only imagine the sheer pandemonium as the hounds are unleashed to roam the countryside. I am quite certain my dear Marie would have been absolutely tickled pink to hear of such a riotous turn of events.Let us, therefore, resolve to properly observe this current month. I propose we do so by indulging in a drop of our absolute finest spirit and enjoying a quiet, contemplative puff of the pipe whilst observing our finest niggers.

Something that's amusing is that increasing zombie counts doesn't really make the game any more difficult, it just makes it more tedious.
You usually don't die to a swarm of zombies, you die to that one retarded zombie hiding in a bathroom who didn't make any noise despite you firing a shotgun outside.
10 zombies? As dangerous as 100. As dangerous as 1000.
The stupid muscle fatigue system just makes it take way too long to kill them via melee, so what do players do? Just run em over with cars, burn them, shoot them.

reddit.com/r/projectzomboid/comments/1uzdbhl/upcoming/I posted leak2 on their reddit since I didn't see anybody else ever try to directly confirm it or not. They approved the post and then deleted it and banned me hours after doing that and getting some interested comments. No mention of it being a leak whatsoever in the post and no ban reason given other than that post specifically.All I can figure is that they have flunkies who don't work on the game moderating, who took "modded" at face value and let it through - the most obvious high fidelity main menu image was two or three in - and it took longer for a dev or playtester to wake up, see it and remove the post/flag a janny on discord. enjoy the update bros

I hope so. A new owner might actually get shit done in a timely manner instead of taking 15 fucking years to make negligible changes.

Hey zombroids - does anyone wanna play with me? I haven't touched the game in like a year but they've seemingly added tons of new stuff. Here's my steamID if you're interested. I'm a complete noob and prefer to "RP" over meta-chasing.41463159

I just don't get it, Lemmy wants us to spend all day carving forks and shit, but then he'll casually put end-tier crafting stations in secluded easily available places. There's no thought process on how to make the game fun with these faggots.
