Defend against THOUSANDS of zombies when Project Zomboid meets 7 Days to Die

it's 7:00 p.m. sharp the governor has just declared a state of emergency and evacuations of the city are underway my friends and I are huddled together here at the dormatory waiting for any news from the outside my phone rings my evacuation bus is here it's time to leave as I made my way downstairs I noticed something unusual are you okay clearly not I pushed him a couple times to see if he would snap out of it and I showed my flashlight directly into his face to temporarily blind him but there were more a lot more more so I sprinted as fast as I could to the exit outside it was pouring but there were soldiers stationed nearby and together we ran back inside to see if we could find any survivors I didn't have a weapon so the best I could do is just lead the soldiers to where all the zombies were and they did all of the dirty work for me I made my way to where they said the bus would be parked and to my surprise the area had been overrun and the soldiers weren't letting anyone through but where was my sister she was supposed to meet me out here I ran over to the girls dormatory to ask some of her friends but nothing none of them seem to know where she is except for one this person reports that she was taken to the police station a couple of days ago and that's the last place she was seen damn it I'd have to leave the campus and see if I could find her outside I linked up with my best friend fatty I told him the situation and we came up with a plan fatty would distract the guards while I escaped on the western end of the campus when the coast was finally clear I sprinted for the gate jumping over the wall was easy when you're as athletic as I am but outside it was complete Devastation once fatty linked back up with me we had a long hike ahead of us the area was infested with zombies and I did my best to fight them off but ultimately we had to make a run for it in the darkness I couldn't tell who was who so I ended up beating an innocent civilian with a hammer oh sorry about that buddy but there was no time to dwell on mistakes oh God uh other way oh my God they're coming out of the windows now but I wasn't the only person out here on a mission others were out in force trying to kill the Zombies themselves oh that guy has a gun let's let's wait for him to die unfortunately he was pretty tough and we had to get out of there it's a good thing we did because a swarm of zombies was heading our way oh no no no no no no no run run run run run over the wall over the wall over the wall yep run we ran until we were completely out of breath and surrounded by zombies oh man what are we get into here but finally we made it to the police station this place was fortified there had obviously been a big battle that had taken place here and people were still fighting inside there was a police officer but he was grievously wounded I traded him a first aid kit for his pistol and a little bit of ammunition and I proceeded to search the station in hopes that my sister was still here somewhere it had been a while but I remembered the lessons my father told me about how to use a gun never pointed at someone unless you mean to kill your Target and with that mind I flipped the safety off but we'd have to be careful with the ammunition oh crap that's never good fortunately there was a silver lining to being in a police station infested with zombies and that is that many of the officers that had turned were still carrying their ammo after spending some time looting and clearing the area I finally made my way to the jail cells and there she was my sister she's here and safe but I'd need to break her out I'd have to search for some keys so I went into the nearby storage area and oh my God a hand grenade in the desk and also a cockroach a kind of food six times more protein than beef I was already starting to feel hungry but there's no time for SNS I released my sister and a couple of her friends that she was locked up with but unfortunately I couldn't find the keys to the other cells so I left the rest of them to their own fate and on the way out more zombies fortunately my sister's best friend forgot how to run and provided a great distraction for us as the rest of us escaped back on campus we took a moment to remember the fallen and catch our breath things were really starting to get crowded here this was basically turning into a refugee camp at this point and at 2:00 a.m. we were roused by the soldiers there was work to be done my first task was to chop down some trees to get lumber for construction projects I was given a tour of the defenses it seemed like the soldiers had done a lot of good work so far it was just up to me to patch up this last spot here the soldiers and I took a little bit of a break here in the pouring rain and I set up a campfire for us we weren't even a full day into the apocalypse and people were already losing their mind wishing that it could be like this every single day one of the other soldiers decided to tell us all the story in that moment we came under attack from the zombies and it was up to me and just a handful of soldiers to fend them off oh wow someone brought grenades hey I have a grenade too quickly throw it into the middle did it work oh it worked I was still a complete amateur at this I didn't know where to stand I didn't know where to shoot from I didn't know where was safe oh my God it's endless endless zombies I had to rely on the soldiers to show me how it's done but they weren't fairing any better oh my God they've swarmed where I was just standing over there they are taking taking out the machine gun and the soldiers that were [Music] inside after the battle was over one thing was clear we need to strengthen the school's defenses fast some people nearby had already fancied themselves as merchants and they were selling some really good equipment for us like machine gun parts and even though i' had been looting the city and zombies I was still pretty hard up for cash but luckily oh my God he's going to just buy my wood walls the cockroach is worth $2 some paper some bullet shells just like that I have $616 which means I am going to purchase this Desert Eagle right here so with my new supplies I was put in charge of the Eastern Gate here this would be the sight of our next attack luckily construction of the defenses was already well underway all I had to do was set up some more walls some extra machine guns and make sure that this place held against the next couple of attacks it took some getting used to but the soldiers taught me well and I was able to get a wall erected in no no time at all I chopped down a few more trees and extended the defenses as far back to the West as I could I spent a little bit of time exploring the campus and looting as much as I could I could pretty much buy all of the supplies from various Merchants that I found but it's a lot easier if you just find it yourself of course in a situation like this you got to find some downtime go by the end of the day I had added a blade trap five extra machine gun turrets and a mortar turret and with Just 2 minutes and 45 seconds left before the hoorde I decided to use my time wisely by chopping some wood I just wanted to make sure I had as many barriers spike traps and walls up as I possibly could okay here we go 30 seconds H you know what these guys these guys are not going to do very good here resist the zombies attack don't let them in Roger that oh we got special infected here we've got some kind of a spitter zombie here we go 3 2 1 it begins yep I think this is is the attack right here they're kind of slowly trickling in all right let's see what we can do here unfortunately on the eve of the attack some of my companions had lost their mind oh they're they're pushing me around now get out of the way what are you doing are they they're they're mad because my defenses are shooting them stop that no all right you guys asked for it given the situation who could blame them all right so far the outer defenses are holding strong just a matter of how many more zombies are left oh jeez okay some kind of a special attack there that's what we filled these leaves for cover for although I didn't get around to it out on the outside there let's see if I can uh quickly just throw some leaves Up on the Roof there I don't know if that's helping or not more leaves lots of leaves everywhere also I don't think that this is actually like a fortified position anymore I'm pretty sure all the spit kind of tore things up a little bit but I am safe here for now outer defenses still holding strong um I just noticed there's some kind of an indicator at the top there that might be something to do oh my God I'm like on fire what's happening I am dead jeez I didn't even see what happened we are back to the beginning it starts over okay that was a bit of like a there was a checkpoint of some variety there right the thing at the top is fully green now and that is going to bleed down and turn completely red I guess we were almost at the end of the hord last time we didn't even get to see the blade trap in action or any of the the back defense is here jeez kind of a weak horde compared to that first one that we faced oh yeah can like two shot zombies now this is great way better than the last pistol I had yeah okay that's what got us the last time that kind of orange spit there oh and now they're these guys want to fight me again I will shoot you are you kidding me no no no no no get out of here man stop pushing me around now I'm out of ammo great look what you guys may me do you may me waste all of my ammo here get the freaking hammer out and Hammer these guys down and it's I don't think it's working okay well whatever just leave me alone guys okay oh jeez man that stuff comes out of nowhere oh another one no no no no no oh my goodness they have some long range attacks don't they it's very hard to stay up front here I think I need to probably pull back about over here and then kind of just look over this way so I can see what's happening and I think that's it yes oh level up as well I didn't realize we were doing RPG elements that's pretty cool okay yeah look at this we can uh we can do gloves we you know all sorts of body armor here for our character and it looks like the next wave will be in 22 minutes it is currently day four so okay I don't know yet if all attacks are going to occur on this flank here or if there are other places to defend okay so I am going to hold out for one more attack but in the meantime I'm going to explore a little bit and see oh you know what we should do we should actually go like outside the wire this way and see if we can find any loot like outside oh oh getting eaten a little bit yes I I was eatting oh jeez okay the outside area it seems to be more or less clear right now oh man this Hammer this Hammer is not great can I get the other melee weapon that I have yeah the the the Pokey stick thing all right let's go on a little bit of an exploration Mission here while we have a little bit of time before the next hord arrives oh I can slide that was fun okay most importantly I would like to find some pistol ammo Pro I don't know where we're going to find that like the police station seems like it would be a go jeez spit spit oh no no no wow this place is dangerous man I'm down to 12 hit points already and oh jeez that doesn't seem like the way to go oh jeez come on come on come on fast fast fast let's go oh that guy's got a weapon an AK or something oh man this is not a good place to be right now I'm running out of stamina I'm being chased by a dozen zombies okay yes get out into the Open Spaces here uh building on fire don't want to go in there I don't think all right I've had enough searching the easterly direction I'm going to try to go west again over to where the police station was and see if I can still go that way this area out here seems much more tame the zombies maybe the other side is like the side that you're supposed to be attacked from and it's not really for exploration and this area over here is where you're supposed to go out and do your looting oh crap zombies in the roof okay zombies are banging on the door what okay just a massive group of zombies chasing a chicken oh no no no no okay fighting groups of people is difficult ah run run run yeah this place is not any more tame than the other place um what can I do here search this vehicle oh it's got some wooden fortifications in the vehicle great okay I think I've lost the group that was chasing me can I um get back into this building maybe I can't even take one hit though if I take one hit I am a goner and I've got a whole other group of zombies on me great okay get the gun out doesn't have any bullets okay and stab okay I think I might have gotten the hang of the combat a little bit all right I just want to see what's inside this house here it's really my only mission right now money and the zombies money and zombie arms you can turn that into chicken feed it says all right we've got a kitchen here with some food nice take all of that oh and every once in a while someone just falls out of the roof okay gotcha get in the hang of things here kill him please pile of supplies on the ground who oh my goodness that's a lot of good stuff there take all all right that appears to be it for this place here I think we can exit out the side here it is kind of difficult to see where the doors and such are I guess you just got to get used to what everything looks like could I maybe get inside this building on just a above me here because I can see that there's first aid in there probably the most important thing to me right now okay we've got a puker top left just puking on that guy that poor guy this chest here though is what I really wanted yes a big old first aid kit oh oh yes the poison poison run I I can't run very fast okay those guys are dangerous just turn a corner and immediately get spat on okay uh how are we looking on time we have 17 minutes before the next wave and my inventory is totally full I'm going to see if I can make my way back to the base now and um perhaps set up a storage would be a nice thing to do and just kind of offload the inventory all right I'm going to set this area up here as my little base camp see if I can do some construction and first and foremost get myself this box here for storage I assume here we go just get rid of some of my supplies in here make myself a sleeping bag it says this is good for fast forwarding the game and also saving okay we're currently 4 and 1/2 minutes now I slept right until the eve of The Horde okay so hopefully that is going to occur here on this end if it happens on the other end it is just 100% game over okay this time I'm going to see if I can get myself a blade trap outside so it has a little bit more likelihood to do some damage let's put it right about here I suppose and uh doesn't seem to do anything against me which is nice these amateurs out front are kicking things off early dragging a whole bunch of zombies over here hey that blade trap is working great though okay here they come all right the attack has now begun in Ernest and they're are pretty much not getting past the blade trap okay a couple are squeaking by now let's just be careful that we don't get caught up in the spin oh and these guys are trying to push me around again you guys are the worst what are we looking like out here looking pretty good the blade trap's holding up well I like that they're there's no degradation it seems there are no repairs okay things are blow oh we did lose the blade trap my bad okay so some combination of either degradation from wear and tear or exploding zombies oh my God speaking of zombies what do we got here we've got some giant zombies that are lurking their way through slow but powerful it seems okay okay I I need to fall back here we need to kind of get out of here look it it looks like some of them are cops and others are prisoners oh something is like rocking the whole area here what is that stuff blowing up I think out here oh and this guy he's not even dead oh boy get out of here oh is it my mortar here we got to pay attention to this is this mortar actually working I haven't seen it shoot anything just yet and I I failed I I don't know what happened there okay so it restarted me at the very beginning of the horde battle here I don't know what happened there uh I think it it it it teleported US 10 minutes before The Horde I think I'm going to have to call it right there there this game is um man it seems like it shows a lot of promise I love the whole trap system it's like project zomboid only a lot fast like arcade mode project zomboid basically so this is definitely a game that I going to have on my wish list I'm going to be keeping an eye on it but I do think that it needs a lot of work if it was released in its current state as it is right now I would not be playing it but it was fun to jump in here for a couple of hours and take a quick peek thank you very much for joining me on my adventure today at the University and I will see you hopefully in the next one hey everyone I just want to say thank you for watching for leaving a like but most of all thank you to the long list of amazing supporters that you see right here I hope this episode has earned your subscription and I can't wait to show you the next one best wishes to all and [Music]
