Honestly, it's a good game....I still prefer cataclysm DDA tho.

Its just more enjoyable playing a highly detailed zombie game rather than a game with small empty maps in 3D.

i think cataclysm has the graphic tile set by default now.... when i downloaded and played it a while ago it had some 2d graphics instead of letters and symbols lol so it has graphic in it by default now, i think theres option to use the ASC symbols stil though but i stick with defaul graphic they added

although i still prefer project zomboid to cataclysm though.....feels more like walking dead, ofcourse i get problem of never ending wildnerness you get lost in buuuut ....cataclysm also has that too if the procedural rndom made map decides to spawn your start position in middle of nowere, with maybe the odd military base you have no way of entering lol ....it has good damage system, and mutation system, which makes me like it, but as i said zomboid is more to my personal liking....... cataclyms i usually end up dying fast, like "oh loo over there, a cute littel squirrel, how cute...... AAAARRGGHHHH ITS RIPPING MY THROAT OUTTT" ... dead lol ....

I've gotten so good at C:DDA that I tend to prefer starting as a lab experiemtn or in the really bad day challenge to give myself a difficult time.

Isn't Cataclysm a roguelike? I played it years ago and there wasn't much to it, has it progressed much? In terms of content, does it dwarf PZ yet? Might have to look into this again...

Development on C:DDA ceased almost two years ago.

Ceased?!

I suppose that might be a good thing? I just downloaded it and it looks to have a TON more content that I remember. Looks very promising.

Could someone give me a primer on what I need to get the most out of C:DDA?

For example, best tile set, mods, etc?

The window is extremely small, any way to enlarge it?

Thanks!

This launcher is a must, also it's kinda hard to explain, but in the settings go to options and if you find something like terminal width/height, that is what you change for your window.

What tileset do you guys recommend for C:DDA?

I was using Blockhead's but it seems like there are LOTS of missing tiles. Came across a mi-go that I simply couldn't see since there was no art for it and got ripped to shreds.

I use the default Chesto tileset.

Don't listen to that dude. Development didn't cease. The experimental version gets updated multiple times per day.

Grab the CDDA launcher for an easy way to install the game and keep it up to date.

tbh, I assumed it was rather dead, too, as I only play the stable build.

Will look up that launcher. Sounds promising.

I already posted the link to the launcher.

[Pat Splat]

Yeah, I noticed multiple updates every day with that launcher.

One thing that really bugs me is the inability to see the entire screen without zooming all the way out into orbit. Seems like you have to rely on the list of creatures on the right menu. Very annoying. I'm probably not doing something right, surely I'll get used to it. Unless you guys know something I don't know...
