Start a game in sandbox mode, adjust settings to your liking. Remove zombies entirely if you really want.

the game is very easy, you just need more experience. Otherwise "Survivor" could be considered an ultra easy mode.

I think the most important piece of advice you should know is: Play Project Zomboid in the exact same way you'd go about a real zombie apocalypse. If you see two or more zombies, sneak around them. Turn off all the lights and anything that makes sound. Keep yourself occupied with entertainment from books, magazines, things like this. Don't over-exert yourself, pace your energy and keep your fluids up. Don't use a gun except for the most dire of situations. Stomp a zombies head in when they're on the ground, don't damage your main weapon.

Some things to make it easier: Take the perk "Keen Hearing", "Lucky" and "Thick Skinned" for a smoother experience into the game. Download "Superb Survivors", this'll allow other survivors to join your group and you can order them to scavenge for supplies and protect you.

And of course, don't get bit, once you do, game over.

He's not being toxic, although I disagree that the game is "very easy", one wrong choice and it could spell total doom. I think there's a lot of people that're passionate about this developers vision and want others to experience what the creators had in mind, when you start modifying the difficult aspects of the game, you dilute the true experience.

Of course play however you want, but it's understandable that some fans don't like the idea of making things easier, instead of just gritting your teeth and learning the proper Project Zomboid experience.

Follow this video's direction if you want an easy start with difficulty increase later in the game.

I recommend changing the peak day to 180 (6 months) and the default population stay as 1 since you are new.

This way the game won't feel too boring with a constant low zombie population or even no zombie at all, and it won't start in high gear either.

to say survivor is "an ultra easy mode" is toxic imo. completly saying that people who struggle on survivor suck so hard cause they fail the "ultra easy mode"

I think it's just ribbing, and hey, to some people it is "ultra easy", I have a friend that beat Ninja Gaiden 2 on his first try and found it to be really simple even though many would consider it one of the hardest games ever made.

Sandbox is your friend Captn. Use all the wonderful toggles, and settings the devs gave us. They want you adjust it, tweak it, make it yours.

To get better at the game, keep playing. Then play more. Don't love your character too much, he will die. Learn from the death, reroll. Play more. Try different settings, different character builds. Learn. Watch videos if you want, but hands on play more.

Join people who are willing to walk with you through your early days. You will die. They will die helping you. reroll. play again. don't sweat dying. it doesn't matter.

The most important thing is to keep playing. Put it down and walk away if you have too. A day, a week. Come back fresh and try it all out again. You will die. Love the game, not your toon. That character you just rolled up? she will die.

Keep going. Getting past that frustrating learning curve is a hard road. Make the trek, and you will get better and better as you learn the mechanics and systems.

Pssh, that's easy mode. He should have been playing one handed, while standing on one foot and drinking a glass of water. He just needs more experience. Otherwise, just completing it one handed could be considered "easy mode."

Do you ever feel immense sadness over a character death? I almost always make mine look like me IRL, and seeing them die hurts deep.

Reminded me of those streamers that play competitive multiplayer games with really strange set ups, like their controller is an electric flute or a modified banana
