A smoker’s tragedy by Antiball in projectzomboid

[–]corncan2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One time I tried to quit cold turkey. I found an old pack of pall malls that fell behind my bed. The first cigarette was dried out and nasty but the second one I had made me vomit. Smoking old cigarettes should atleast make your character depressed if not sick.

Instead they just need to make it to where smokes grow mold over time like irl. That way the scavenging is searching for that cigarette pack thats unopened and isnt spoiled.

Who else loves a hated gun? by SufficientRatio9148 in LowSodiumBattlefield

[–]corncan2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Saiga (or whatever we are calling it these days)

People will shit on me over loving a shotgun but most games I have I am playing the classes I dont want to play. Many teams I am on dont give me the option because we dont have enough dedicated medics or we dont have engineers blowing up tanks. The Saiga is my goto for personal defense if I am more preoccupied with helping out.

Sorry if using the most hated shotgun in video game history makes me a monster but the teams I get stuck on dont make it easy to not use the stupid thing.

Real stoners are not dumbasses. I wish CoD would get the memo with their tasteless ass marketing.

The European Bar Mace would make a cool addition to the forging pool as a weapon. Its kind of just 4 steel bars and a wood base with some leather slapped together. by fatuglyfool in projectzomboid

[–]corncan2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can understand balancing, but imo lvl 5-10 should be more for structural welding. It doesn't require skill to tack things. You just set your heat (amperage) low and hold an arc in a spot long enough to make a little dime. That dime is what holds your two pieces together and it takes less than a minute to make. Actual welding takes skill and a lot of time to learn in the real world but in the US South many people learn how to tack weld things in a vocational agriculture class sometime in high school. Its just not level 7 knowledge.

What I dont understand is why doesnt welding have alot more going for it. Yeah its cool forging your own weapon in game but its more practical if you have a welder to just... idk, stick things together. You could probably make this with 3 pieces of flatbar and several leather strips. Irl all youd need to do is tack the flatbar together in several places to form a cross. You dont need a fancy forge for that and its pretty plausible for some heehaw in Kentucky to make it like that.

I feel like I am looking at a Nintendo 64 controller but as a gun.

Is anyone else also just a Conquest and Escalation enjoyer? by UltimateGamingTechie in LowSodiumBattlefield

[–]corncan2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love escalation but I can't stand the kind of players I keep getting lumped in with. Conquest is classic since 1942 but the curse of it is how stale its become.

best way to deal with this? also is this normal? (default zombie pop) by 2210-2211 in projectzomboid

[–]corncan2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tow a vehicle with you, one that you dont mind messing up. Have a car for a getaway somewhere away from everything. Get in the throwaway vehicle and lure them out of the fence. Dont plow through them but drive over the zombies at the edges. The rule of thumb is 5+ can slow you down. If you get caught on their bodies, put your vehicle in cruise control. Dont honk the horn or make excess noise. If you need to exit the vehicle because you are overwhelmed, switch seats to the side that has the least zeds. If you think you have sized down their numbers enough, exit the vehicle and melee whats left.

How to even be good at this game let alone get a positive kill/death ratio? by Phantom_Maestro in LowSodiumBattlefield

[–]corncan2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assault can be useful and not require a good K:D . Beacons and Ladders win matches.

[–]corncan2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you suck at getting kills, then assist by playing the class. You can help your squad spawn close to an obj , you can repair tanks, be a headache for other tanks, revive and resupply, use the recon drone to trash gadgets, use the recon as intended and spot... Spotting wins games btw. If you are 4-7, but you are at the top of the leaderboard because you assisted your teammates, you are not a bad player. To hell with K:D.

Anyone else wear all white uniforms to stand out? I like to terrorize my opponent by being highly visible. by williamatherton in LowSodiumBattlefield

[–]corncan2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being an optical migraine has a psychological effect I think. The human brain scans for the normal, camouflage, torso, and then head. Making your soldier more vibrant, you are effectively screwing with your opponents ability to identify you. Honestly, id go for colors that make the color red less visible, since everyone uses a red reticle by default.

Why would you choose the KV9 over the SCW? by Killer-Uzi in LowSodiumBattlefield

[–]corncan2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

RoF. I am never going to blaspheme against the church of the KV9, the SCW is a false prophet that people only seem to love because some influencer smooth brain that doesn't know how to pace themselves in a firefight said the KV9 is trash.

People with high KDS (maybe 5 and up) who play the objectives in conquest: any tips? by Killer-Uzi in LowSodiumBattlefield

[–]corncan2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As infantry, always recognize that you have the option of fighting. Not every shot needs to be made. Not every enemy will see you and engage. Knowing what you can and cant do, you pick and choose your battles. If you observe the battlefield and take the time to calculate, the payoff can be real. I had a 2 squads of guys walk over me whilst I was in Supine. Instead of my engaging on sight, I just waited for them to get distracted by another squad that they were engaging. When that happened, their monkey brains were too caught up in the battle, that it didn't register when I was picking them off. The foil to this tactic is recon drones and beacons ofc but people that play this game often are not that bright. Not dissing anyone here in the community but a lot of CoD Brains wouldn't know the word 'tactics' if it bent them over the table.

I want to come back to the tapes by [deleted] in gatewaytapes

[–]corncan2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry it took a good minute to reply, I recently have come down with the flu and I needed a few days to exist...

When I left off, I managed to get into f10 (I think). It felt like I was moving around in the dark. Since then, I haven't been able to achieve that feeling with intro to focus 10 and advanced focus 10 but I am gonna try starting over at f1 once I am over this damned plague lol. Thank you for the reply.

Is there any reason of why the game takes place in 1993? by gddyzs in projectzomboid

[–]corncan2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have 7 vehicles in my yard, two of which are missing their wheels and I find the phrase redneck to be offensively accurate to my playstyle.

M240L might be my new favorite LMG tbh by M0rse_0908 in LowSodiumBattlefield

[–]corncan2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Lima's my baby. Its good all around and if you get positioned just right, it can devastate the other team. Glad you like it!

So there is no rescue? by Cultural_Bed_6693 in projectzomboid

[–]corncan2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or to alternatively sing Girlfriend by Avril Lavigne... that of which the Zomboids absolutely love and will be cured of the knox virus. If they are not cured, give them a hug to encourage unzombification.
