#42.11.0 Unstable Released
1 messages · Page 8 of 1
First your 25, then you blink and you're 35

You start WoW, you look young and got hair. You stop WoW and now you got no hair and look like Lenin irl.
it is admittedly scary how the older you are, the faster time becomes
I've still got my hair at least
ahahahahaha
What comes to looking like Lenin...I am not russian. A finn.
There's a certain charm to it
I think I know the answer, but are the devs aware that (speaking for myself at least) the 'UpDaTe WhEn' meme is just a weird subculture to pass the time on this discord?
Are you implying I did not want to know release date of build 43 in the moment of B42 unstable??
i remember playing build 42 and waiting 1 year to get multiplayer good times
my understanding is that since it has been a "lengthy" gap since the last update, people are getting curious/concerned as to whats going on
ahh those were the days! (assuming you mean 41)
On the surface, its a demand for more information that is actually just us passing time with memes, but when you zoom in on us passing time, its actually a demand for more information
it was totally worth
B41 MP took a year. Give B42 same year and then start to wonder. Game sure may be more popular now so more people want MP sooner than later.
i did actually have a pretty useful conversation with you on reddit before 
but its the "antieffect" just see how quickly any community focused on hating on something turns into people being absolute dipshits
thats a problem most of reddit has, beacuse most casual players just dont really deal with reddit, they most they do is go on discord and be done with it
maybe the update was the frinds we made along the way?....
Hello
the sex update.
I also just wanted to say this because I haven't seen much recognition online. The new music within Build 42 is PHENOMENAL!!!
I mean i remember when b42 came out and people were griping g
Granted I did agree on a bit of it (mainly the new "art")
On reddit I mean
I should try a playthrough with music on, it's been a while 
I always have the music on
I absolutely love the OST but I used to find it very distracting
I love the immersion of no music 😅
Especially with the sound design changes in 41, and now 42 🤌
Ill lower volume if im listening to videos
bro already 7000 message has come where is the new update devs I love you guys please work hard muck muck
yeah the art was a bit weird. Id absolutely love main menu art to be like what we currently have with the posters and newspapers!
💯 the devs should lean into that
exactly! it is creative and unique to zomboid!
I think its been mentioned numerous times to them they should do that
ohh whoops! I never wanted to spam them
Oh no you are fine im just agreeing
ah okay! nonetheless, I'm excited to see what they produce!
cant wait for the car fix
is the next patch gonna be big or just a decent amount of bug fixes?
update is next monday guys trust me
32 more minutes until it's update next Monday
waiting for a miracle
There were a couple issues in the pre-release from beta testers (rotating character figure while turning comes to mind), so probably they're taking the time to fix those.
On the other hand, part of me is hoping that maybe they're refining what they told beta-testers not to show, the big feature of 42.12 ... But that's just me attempting a wishcast
Only Sully can help right now. We need to squeeze him to get more information, even if its going to brake NDA
theres nothing left on him
^
For the record, there was no game content we instructed the community testers to not show.
Haha Sully, you're perfectly smashing every overhyped dream of community here
that's my job
That is good to know. One particular tester kinda implied there was some. Glad to know that't not the case
Wanted to say you're amazing in this, but i will say you're Sully in this
So that's it, that's literally the whole patch?
I can't speak to what you've seen, but our community testers have access to the content in the upcoming patch, and I would assume they would show you what they felt relevant.
They have access to the content. That doesn't mean they have access to the full patchnotes 😛
There's no trickery, or "we're hiding X from you". That's what I'm trying to say.
Oh I know, I was just coping. Don't mind me
hahaha

Hi
Greetings

Hello everyone, I am new here on the Project Discord server. I have a question regarding the current unstable release version of Project Zomboid. I'm sure this question has been asked before. I must admit, I haven't played for three weeks now but is an update planned for multiplayer during the unstable release? Thank you in advance for your answers. Here's to surviving and dying together! 😋
No certain answer other than that Multiplayer comes when it's ready, one would say it should be coming before the whole build 42 is considered ready, ergo during Unstable era
Hello, we don't know when multiplayer will be released, maybe next week, maybe next year, maybe in 10 years lol
Are playtesters allowed to show everything new to people before the patch drops publicly?
Sully answered that a small while ago, they can ask testers to keep something unrevealed like ragdolls were.
better picture
Thank you.
Hey guys, what slot does leg wraps occupy? Is it a sock or a shoes?
And same for arm wraps, is it a glove or a wrist thingy?
Hands, which means same category as gloves
Thanks
So it can in fact be warn together with watches or armour?
Hey, do you know what for sure will come in next patchnotes? I mean certain things
I cannot believe update today feels like yesterday
What do you know….
Yeah
New nascar cars
I know as much as anyone else 😅
Something about breakable fences, new cars and taking hay from hay tiles
when is the next update?
new trait, new car naskar
several bug fixes
new tiles for iron fences
and a LOT of other things for QoL that I won't mention here
first person mode
and something is probably coming that betatesters can't show either, just like what happened with the ragdolls
hahaha
how does one become a community tester?
bruh
nothing like that will come
forget what I said
😫🤙
сum
I had a dream in which a third-person update was released.
By sending feet pics to NasKo
Also, please don't actually do this
too late
And in all seriousness, community testers are generally people or content creators that TIS knows and reaches out to. It's an invite only system. There's no process or criteria to becoming one.
I can`t be a tester?
only if ma frend has a tester?
good to know, just became curious as i was watching snowbeatle show off the new build, love the look of some of the QOL stuff
We do hire internal QA Testers from time to time. There are currently no vacancies listed, but we do list vacancies here: https://projectzomboid.com/blog/jobs/
Hmmm
would you say that role has any sort of requirements/qualifications necessary?
Every job has requirements, but if you're generally technical then that's a good place to start. I can't really get into specific requirements because there isn't an active vacancy and I'm not sure from a HR perspective what would actually be required.
i remember thinking as a kid/teen being a game tester must be an awesome job
growing up and hearing about what its actually like was eye opening
It's not nearly as fun as you imagine as a kid lol. There's a lot of tedium.
"Whaaaaat? you mean i can't just goof off, play games and get paid, this stinks"
i suppose you do still get to play games but barely
you'll be purposely trying to break the game to find out if it is stable or not
Gsme testing? Pffft thsts what players are for
hey
Hi
"Wait so a beta test ISNT just a marketing thing it's actually meant to gather bug data? The fuck is the point of that!"
we all just want to play the unreleased test unstable build before everyone else, no one wants to actually test things this way
of course of course
oh great interperter of all, the voice of all, please, what should i think today?
So... are we just hoping theyre holding the release for Halloween
Maybe the multiplayer devs finished and they’re incorporating it into the new update????
Please I need it please god please
the cope
Multiplayer was only hinted at coming after december
B42 still has until december before it reaches the old estimated stable release time
So stop trying to predict mps drop
We can start complaining once its 2026
nop
the MP dont is be added in the next patch
You can only start charging after 2026

People are in a big hurry for MP, but the game doesn't just offer MP
Please keep expectations low. There were a number of reasons why the time between this patch and the last one is longer than previously. We had a number of people on holiday during this patch (common in the summer), as well as a staff event. On top of that there have been some unexpected bugs with the intended release that have not yet been resolved. Rest assured, it's being worked on.
delay the patch another month pls
really
tbh if it has bugs id rather they fix em than rush the release
I don't think my sanity could last another month lol
its common sense to want the game to be at its best instead of rushing stuff
I don't think anyone is in a hurry here
people will start asking about the next patch as soon as this one releases
or have?
lol
its true
really
I remember that when this channel was created, there were people who already asked about the next patch
I am curious how long it takes before people start legitimately asking when the next patch is... I'll need to make a note of it
that's more a meme than anything
it will take like 3-5 hours at most
I don't know why there's such a rush, the game's content is so big (not counting the mods)
tbh i genuinely hope b43 expands the map size even more
if they continue expanding someday we'll get one of the biggest maps in gaming ever
I didn't think PZ had such an immersive map when I started playing
but I found a cabin in the middle of nowhere
yeah our map team really does good work
i really think u guys should delay the patch even tho its not the communities choice i think if most of them were on holiday delaying it might be a good idea
If developers listened to players in a hurry we would probably have a LOT OF BUGS
we all want the patch but realistically i dont want another 42'11
it has so many weird bugs in it that could have been avoided
the animation and performance problems in b42'11 make the game feel so rushed right now
I think I could release a patch every 3 months, it would be frequent enough that they wouldn't complain so much
im playing on a really nice pc and im getting the stuttering problems on 11
3 months would be so nice cuz the patches would actually have enough time to be bug tested
the whole 1 month-2 month philosophy wont work in the long run
yes
i can see b42 being delayed until 2027 at this rate
3 months is better for their mental health too cuz they can actually get breather time
really
we already have b42...
not the stable version
b42 is still early in its development cycle
unless the devs say otherwise
It doesnt matter when the updates come because people go crazy for the next patch regardless
thats why 3 months between patches is fine
they need to take time to actually develop stuff slowly and precisely
I prefer seeing the updates whenever they are ready.
agreed
I dont mind how long they take. The player base help them find a lot of bugs, so how they do it now isnt bad at all
It must be annoying to always have someone asking when the next update will be
it would give the playerbase extra time to test the patches for bugs too
3 months inbetween patches would let the tryhards find hundreds of bugs
Theres always going to be bugs
the faster they can fix them the better. I dont think a lot of players would want to wait 3 months for bugs to be fixed. How they do it now is just fine
I wouldn't say the same
There will always be bugs, some just worse than others
not being able to wait 3 months in a game where the content is almost infinite + mods, is crazy.
I give my applause to the mapping team though. The more I look around the map, the more impressed I become.
It's also flattering to be included in such a prestigious group
i wish u guys would add comic books to the game
like parodys of popular 90s comic books
Your suggestion here will be lost to the void. While not actively responded to, suggestions posted on our forums or Steam are actively read, so we recommend you post there instead:
https://theindiestone.com/forums/index.php?/forum/20-pz-suggestions/
we got the books with randomized names so i think comic books deserve the same treatment
Definitely stick it in one of those suggestions areas. I did stick it somewhere internally, but it's very likely it'll get lost there given our current priorities
What happens if a suggestion starts to become really popular?
i think i just came up with the most banger project zomboid comic book line ever
popularity itself isn't important. If we see a suggestion and think it's a good idea we'll jump on it. Good ideas tend to become popular, but not universally so. If we see a popular idea and think it's awful it'll go in the bin
its so funny cuz its based off x men but its got a zomboid pun naming scheme
interesting
Thanks for letting us know
so like
i wrote down the suggestion but ive never made one before i dont know if its good enough
do i just publish it like this
magnificent is a pun on magazine and its the in universe version of marvel
pc comics is a pun on detective comics/dc
Cake comics is just a self insert
hmmm
I'd put the main part of the suggestion (the having hand drawn comics) at the top, and then include the rest of your ideas. Just keeps it a bit clearer and easier to read/understand
oki dokie
I was thinking about rehabilitating my old channel and starting to post zomboid videos
(I believe you should also add a handdrawn series of spiffo newspaper gag comics to the game maybe only a few to make it seem like spiffo really was a big brand name which was expanding into all sorts of entertainment types) this would be sort of like how GARFIELD was in real life, Also both of t...
the idea of amputation in a zombie apocalypse all alone, is it crazy in my head?
amputation was 50/50 confirmed by the devs awhile back
they said they consider adding it pretty often but i doubt we'll get it until first aid gets a major rework
What is 50/50? And I'm glad to know that
Worse still, it's true, in all my saves I didn't upgrade first aid for anything
In fact, what is the skill for and how does it help?
it makes u heal faster
pretty sure thats all.
hmmmmmmmmmmmmm
ratman because pz doesnt have bats
uncanny Z women because its a pun on ZOMBOID
and x men
Dude, after playing Zomboid for a long time, I realized something, the game doesn't have mountains, has anyone else noticed this?
its in kentucky
I found it funny that I didn't realize this before
and most of the map is city area
Its ai
its IA ;C
Glad you haven't played competitive Animal Crossing yet. 
Sheer willpower to grind for furnitures and rare decorations...
Ugh...
Competitive what
Any news when will 42.12 be released?
no
It doesn't even do that - through testing it shows to heal at the exact same rate. The one upside to leveling first aid is actually the quality of splints - the higher you are the better quality splint you can make. The better quality it is the closer to normal movement speed you can be
hm
why havent the devs added random spawning to the base game
its been a popular MOD since b39 by now
so many different random spawn mods
interesting
I would like random spawning very much
spawning into garage with no keys or windows
Genuine question, how much do ya'll look and implement what is in suggestions(considering its not something stupid or out of scope)?
u wish
I would love dog goblin comics. (I still have no idea what it is but I always coming across it's mentions in the game). Also Ratman sounds insanely good
The Ratman and the Amazing Strider-Man
🧐
Update when?
Proof?
some voices tell me this
I Hope so...almost 2 month without update
On 31 September most likely
We regularly review suggestions, how often they are implemented depends on how good a suggestion it is, and how it fits into our priorities.
And how doable it is I presume
If there is a need, then it is always doable. It is just a matter of time.
I am so sorry in advance
soon™
guaranteed patch before end of time, we got a lot of years before that
Hope is the last thing that dies
your character is the last thing that dies, hope has no use when bitten = death
Just dont get bit ez
So true pookie
Sorry guys
