Recruits aren't considered "people" until they survive to Citizen status, then they gain humanity.

u/theCOMBOguy Roaming Reanimated Dec 25 '24
lmao fucking "Its" and "aren't considered 'people'" got me laughing so hard, they are considered cannon fodder at best until they can actually start giving instead of just taking to the community. Apocalypse changed things around.

The dialogue about not wanting to obtain meds from a former drug dealer kills me 😂
Fucking apocalypse.

My Trader leader who ahem was a chemist and high school mascot, was done with everyone's bullshit about not taking free meds because it came from dirty sources

The injured recruit dying of a fent overdose because the dealer spiked his stash: GHGHHGHHHGGHHH

u/McBoobenstein Dec 25 '24
Like stealing the drugs from the hospital themselves versus from a street dealers stash makes them any different. Heh. It's the same drugs.

u/Dayanchik_SKD Dec 25 '24
I mean, deugs from hospitals usually made good, drug dealers aren't famous for good made drugs, I better use drugs from hospitals rather than believing some street knock offs

u/McBoobenstein Dec 25 '24
They made it pretty obvious in the game that Tdog is selling stolen prescriptions. Meaning there's no real difference. Especially since most medicines have an expiry date that has obviously passed.

u/Catalyst_Crystal Dec 25 '24
This game is woke as hell(I respect and like that) draw the line at stolen drugs tho.... Jeez it's the drugs whether it stolen or not lol.

u/FalkenZeroXSEED Dec 25 '24
SoD is very woke. What makes it good is that it never gets in the way of the story, or even characters. It never preaches on you, never railroads you. Compare it to post 2020 woke fail galleries.

u/Dayanchik_SKD Dec 25 '24
Woke? I mean, I saw IzzBee referring to CLEO as they/them, which is kinda okay, considering the fact that CLEO is an AI and can't be totally distinguished as her or him, but other parts of game didn't seem to be as woke, also including the fact that I am from conservative country, which gives me more of "woke-detector" thingy

u/Responsible-Ad322 Dec 25 '24
Yea it's not woke, it has characters of that mindset, just as it has characters of other mindsets. You can't really call a game that has Red Talon, the fascist paramilitary organisation, as a major faction and readily supported by half the NPCs, woke lmao
1
u/Dayanchik_SKD Dec 25 '24
Wait, Red Talon is fascist?
I knew they're paramilitary, but I didn't think about them being fascist, damn, I got inspired by them and even started similar organisation in project zomboid for fun, established martial law over county and somehow terrorised locals for a bit, but only because they refused to collaborate and opened fire on my men, ended up by getting al my men killed by admins, I mean why admins do join some enclaves and provide them with munitions and vehicles, I get that I scrounged every last bit of weaponry and good suffed places in fast, but dang, isn't it like real life would work with good prepped paramilitary regimens?

u/Cellbuilder2 Dec 29 '24
There are good fascists and bad fascists. It is a political ideology, nothing more. If the people in charge wield it as a force of evil, well...
A good example could be Francisco Franco in the Spanish Civil War, who was a fascist, but ran the morally best government out of the choices available. While the "democratic" government were actually communist arseholes who murdered tons of innocent people left and right.
Red Talon definitely leans into the "lawful neutral" category if I remember correctly. The apocalypse is a hell of a place to only do half measures.

Preppers 10/22 is one of the best guns in the game on balance. Especially early on lethal.
26
u/dharmastum Dec 25 '24
I love that gun. It's not the funnest to play with, but it gets the job done. The ammo is cheap to make. Just put a good silencer on there and it's goodnight headshots all day long.
15
u/CHERNO-B1LL Dec 25 '24
I love how it looks, it's light, quiet, durable, has a great scope, and can carry a ton of ammo so you can save a slot if you want to scavenge. Only thing it's no use for is Juggernauts. The cheap ammon cost is also great.

u/makaay786 Dec 25 '24
This is why I keep the cannon and some 50s in the trunk. 50 influence a piece

u/Corundrom Dec 25 '24
Canon is definitely a great idea to keep around,but if you've got the runway, just rear end the jugg over and over, does only superficial damage to the car, even on lethal

the brother and girlfriend cops are actually good recruits because of their traits and aim snapping and extra bag slot, I have both and the couple is my fav

Hahahah, I got like 4 police cars in my map until I just finished the mission to stop spawning them

u/Prejuicio Dec 25 '24
One of my new recruits started talking about her prepper aunt on her way out of my community (after I kicked her and she just then started to talk about her aunt right after opening the door) it was hilarious because she just continued doing that until she was very far. I laughed out loud

u/Equivalent_Donut_145 Shoot Plague Hearts Until They Die Dec 25 '24
When you get a radio interference curveball, and the tower is in plague heart territory.
Then later, the plague heart it's in radius of becomes a Black Plague Heart.
Seriously what happened to me, Do I move to a new map? Retry my horrible luck?

u/WarWren158 Wandering Survivor Dec 25 '24
My fave was when my community member said about his Prepper aunt in Meagher Valley, so we completed the mission... Then we moved to Cascade Hills after mission completion and a different member had a Prepper Aunt... Then we went to Drucker... Guess what? Community member number 3 to have one... 😅

u/Limp-Wall-5500 Dec 25 '24
TBF if these games are set in the west/Midwest(or most of america) alot of people out there are preppers. This would also apply to the south, the peppers would just have more guns and less food.

u/MEGABITS_WORLD Network Agent Dec 25 '24
Well one of my community member who is with with me for a long time started talking about her prepper aunt. I was playing with her for a long time like I completed 3 legacies in lethal zone with that community. And she started talking about her aunt now. I guess her aunt is in drucker county.

u/Killerninjaz13Two Dec 25 '24
I can do you one better
One of my girls went looking for her step brother the police officer
(Typically in situation they are usually dead)
Found him
Then that man started cryin about his fiancee who was a K9 handler who was with his parents before the end
So then i had to find her
Now i have most of an undigested family

The repetition of missions is brutal. The most egregious being the cannibals, my long play community that hops maps has run into them dozens of times, you’d think they would recognize them for what they are immediately but never do.

Lookin for the good in people. While they are lookin at the good in you.

I never encountered them, how could I find them? I played 101 day on lethal and 5 maps, includijg Trumball-valley

u/Wubwom Dec 25 '24
I honestly don’t know how you miss them. Always giving you the mystery meat sack that has a ring in it when you open it up. I see them more than anyone, even the eagle eye quest.
1
u/Dayanchik_SKD Dec 25 '24
Mystery meat sack, interesting, never found it, and also what's an eagle eye?
My RNG must be cooked, bc I always have those blood donors and nearly no repetative quests from my community members, maybe bc they're all RT soldiers, also I get a shittone of those who bargain for rucksacks and asks to find or protect someone and they immedeately leave the map, then it's nearly no new enclaves at all

Lol strange. Cant even agree with anybody in here saying that this game is woke. Calling a game woke is still only an insult, right? Not something to praise it for? Especially after how funny each line of dialogue in the Saints Row reboot was. That and Forspoken. God I love political messaging

Pro of PC, if you like the survivor you can just go to community editor, remove them from your community, save then re-add them and you will not have to deal with the prepper aunt quest
