Exciting Updates and Changes Coming to Project Zomboid - Exclusive Insights on Unstable Plans

Hello everyone, and Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate.

Unstable Plans

What does the Unstable release currently look like, and what's in store during the beta phase?

As we gear up for the Unstable release before Christmas, we are working diligently to ensure a smooth launch. Our testers' positive feedback indicates that the build will be ready for a wider audience, barring any unforeseen delays.

Internal Beta Test Impressions

Feedback from our internal beta testers has been overwhelmingly positive, highlighting improvements in gameplay, such as smoother mechanics, enhanced world dynamics, and exciting new additions like animals, dynamic music, and more. Changes to the game's flow have been well-received, although some adjustments may spark community discussions.

Other Items

Significant progress in the crafting department has led to streamlined UIs and improved functionalities. The latest iteration of the 'crafting on a flat surface' UI promises a more intuitive experience. Additionally, the Build UI aims to enhance user interaction and reduce reliance on specific controls.

Animal Care and Improved Gameplay

Players can look forward to enhanced animal interactions, including caring for livestock and hunting. The addition of deer migration, animal tracking, and a radial menu for livestock management adds depth to the gameplay experience. Expect improvements in fishing mechanics and stealth/sneak abilities to navigate through zombie-infested areas more effectively.
