Have you guys tried roleplaying with your characters (multiplayer)?

Not necessarily through audio but with the game chat function at least!

• Comment on the events heard/seen on the TV/radio
• Build up a character personality through their occupation and personality traits and act on them
• Tell tales of what you have done in the game
• Discuss about several locations in the game world
• Go through future prospects, goals, fears...

I tried a little bit with one friend (the others weren't interested) with one line here there. Was fun!

With modded extra animations it could get even more interesting!

I feel like now I've played a bit, I can go through the motions and make my character secure within a week i.e survive the helicopter event, find a car, secure a base, have ample food, water and guns.

For me, the zombies don't really pose a threat any more knowing that I can just make a racket, round them up and pied Piper the fuckers to the nearest forest. I guess I'm waiting for NPCs to really stir things up but that doesn't seem to be in the near future.

What have you guys done to make the game more difficult or entertaining after you got the gameplay loop down?

I didn't see a post here yet but wanted to make sure this Community is up and running. I really liked the community we had over at Reddit and I think we should strive to keep kind to one another during the apocalypse and continue creating fun content to enjoy our favourite indie game.

Keep on keeping on, Zomboids.
