Progression?

[Thunder Bagel]

I'm confused on what the game will look like several hours in for players. It seems like all you do is survive. Is there any base building elements?

[IvantheFormidable]

There's lot of base building elements, and an entire skill "carpentry" that lets you do it. But yes, your goal is to survive. Like most sandbox games, anything outside of that goal is for the player to decide for themselves.

The game is like Minecraft before Ender Dragon. Just do whatever you want and survive as long as you can. No end goal set by the game.

[Thunder Bagel]

Gotcha. Thanks!

The game tells you the goal every time you load or start a game:

The story of your death.

You've got options.

No matter what after a few hours you'd hope to have your survivor dressed appropriately.
Boots, Gloves, Helmet, Backbacks, other Armor, other carrying gear.
And you'd hope to have a tool collection.
Hammer, Screwdriver, Saw, Ax, Sledgehammer, car tools ect.
And then some if not all the weapons you'd like you use.
Guns and ammo if you are going loud, spears or blunt or whatever if you are going quiet.

But beyond that... what ever you want.
You want a single central base?
You need construction skills, material and lots of tools.

Do you want a several hidey holes?
Less material investment, but more travel.

You want to be a car migrant.
Find a vehicle you like, try to keep it in shape. Travel and keep your self fed and sane.

More likely if you play long enough you'll end up doing a combination of the above.

This is the only set up i have seen that contain generators on spawn. It also has roof access and is kind of Hidden

It's not just base building "elements." You can literally build a house from the ground up and put whatever you want in it, or around it. Keep food in a fridge, repair cars in the backyard. Manage a farm if you need to.
This game is nuts when it comes to crafting.

[Thunder Bagel]

Awesome. I was a little worried this game would just be endlessly scavenging so I'm glad to hear that this game is so versatile

[Toastman]

yeah theres no real base goal BUT there is base building with carpentry and i guess the true gol is remke society in a zombire environment (make a small walled town and get enough players to fill it) then its just survive so youve won basicly

[Toastman]

yeah so i think the real goal is make a good enough environment u would consider being able to live in it irl
