Is this good for a new player?

[hardy wraith]

The photo is my current stats, to save the time I’ll just sum everything up, I stayed with my spawn house, looted some nearby houses until I found a rosewood map, went to the school and took a car and then I went to the over run gas station and ran all of the zombies over and got a new car and looted and took everything back to my house

Imma be honest, Sunday Driver is one of the worst perks to get.

It’s bad when you need to speed through a horde or get to somewhere quick, it seems like it would do nothing on paper but you’ll soon realize its detriment.

[storm viper]

Nice job! Sounds like you're doing well. Sunday driver reduces your acceleration 40% and makes it super hard to tow anything, which is why it's usually recommended not to take.

[hardy wraith]

Ah yeah I think I’ve realized that when playing because it’s so slow to reverse into the big groups and it hardly pushes them down rather than plowing through them with the front end

Is there anyway to make my character get rid of the trait without killing him?

Also does anyone know this map mod

[cedar glen]

It looks similar to eris minimap but it also seems a little different, and if he's on b42 it's definitely not eris I don't think it's been updated in forever

[hardy wraith]

This is before b42 and when he goes fullscreen it shows their heat signature etc…

[unborn flume]

without debug? no.
With debug mode? yes

[cedar glen]

By a little different I mean, looking at one of his recent vids it looks like it has a couple extra buttons but I'm just basing it off old screenshot of eris

Eris minimap is probably your best bet though

If it ever gets updated

[hardy wraith]

Oh

Because rosewood town area near the zipe mart and the books store and all that is death trap

And the fire station is over run too

Idk if I should try to clear out the grocery store first or the fire station

Or if I should try to clear up the streets first

[unborn flume]

Avoid those spots until you have a decent weapon, you can try luring zombies away - but that is only really a temporary solution

[hardy wraith]

I’ve been plowing them down with cars

[unborn flume]

its a double edged sword

yes the cars will kill them, but cars make noise - which will just lure more back in

[hardy wraith]

Also what’s the mod that counts zombies killed with car

[hardy wraith]

That’s the point

To get rid of them

So I don’t have to worry about looting a place and then one comes and bites me from behind

[unborn flume]

again, its double edged

killing on foot is almost always going to be better in my experience - ive been there when it comes to using cars, but without going on foot and learning you wont get better and are giving yourself a handicap

[cedar glen]

This is true, better to die a bunch and learn then to choose the easy way now and die late game, just always remember, don't get overconfident, overconfidence kills

[unborn flume]

complacency is the biggest killer of all.
PZ really is just one of those games when you have to accept that you are going to die a whole bunch for 100s of hours

[cedar glen]

Yeah, it's one of those games that steams 2 hour refund limit is useless for because you have to spend 20 hours just figuring out how to play to decide if you like the game properly

[urban vessel]

Kill count

[blissful cedar]

Absolutely agree with this, just go and set foot on open areas, purge up all the Z across the map.
Killing on foot not only benefits your character in surviving the late game population but also solving the issues with fixing your cars, u only could train your mechanic skill if your character is alive, so spend your time on surviving and keeping your character alive first before you try to plowing through a deck of zombies, which is ineffective and unnecessary in both ways

As a reminder, looking for a car with good condition is also hard on vanilla config, so treat your car well with burglar traits
