TIP: If you DO get your car stuck on bushes or a horde of zombies. If your car is set to automatic, let go of the gas (W) to let the RPM go down so the car goes back to 1st gear. And then just start tapping W until you get out. It's much easier to drive through grass or a horde in 1st gear.

Got another tip. When looting for watches and such do you also find it so annoying when one of the watches has an active alarm and it goes off when you try to be sneaky? Off course you can deconstuct them when you pick them up but if you wanna take them with you (waiting for XP book for instance). Sollution: Make sure to carry them on your person and not in a bag. (they weigh almost nothing so no problem). Now if you have some collected activate the alarm on your own watch and deactivate it, all watches in your inventory are turned off now. (quickest way is to use the bell icon on the watchbox top right corner of your screen).

You won't be slowed by the trees, but the combat stance movement speed is super slow, so it only helps to not get scratched. A better way to avoid getting scratched in most circumstances is to use "walk to", as that allows you to quickly move through forested areas unless they form solid walls.
12:06 "Antique ovens do not have the ability to use VHS tapes." So true, I needed this info 😂
For those who play on multiplayer servers. Put your username/inservername as the character name as it will show on your keyring. If you die this makes it easier to get your stuff back, specially if you play with friendly people willing to bring it back for you, or at least notify you of where your Zomboid body shambled to.

While I know of it now (ofc), tip 54 would have made learning about combat SO MUCH EASIER for me when I first started playing. My biggest issue was being unable to do defensive "stuff" in combat, and this is one of the best ways to get out of tricky situations.
102: Firefighter clothing not only protects you alot, but also protects your NECK. Clothing that protects your neck are lifesaving, so keep this in mind. I was surprised how much people did not know that. The firefighter clothing might slow you up, but its better than being chomped on in the neck.

I don't know. Firefighter gear is heavy, makes you overheat easily, makes you move slower AND lowers your movement speed. The way I put it to my friend is that it's basically bruiser/tank armor, in a game where you don't want to get hit. I understand why people wear it, but it's not worth it to me.
Making a stone knife to make spears instead of using the same chipped stone to make spears is more efficient.
Man when you said "antique ovens cant use VHS tapes" my brain was like "yeah well duh." Then I realized you meant antique tvs. Good video. Learned a bunch. Keep it up.

*if you dont have a sledgehammer, remove the floor at the top of the stairs You never need to destroy the stairs if you do this, making sledgehammers only really good for breaking walls. Also available to do immediately, without relying on the loot rng.

For the nomad's like myself who make their home in a car keeping seed bags is a good way to organize your main backpack. They weigh practically nothing and hold 6 units a piece with the organized trait. Material to construct a tent can usually be found in warehouses and construction sights. They weigh 3.5 compared to 8 for a mattress and 5 if you find a military cot If you can spare the weight a mug isn't a bad investment. I'm fairly certain you can't make coffee in anything else and it's a second container to boil 1 unit of water in. Imo it kills 2 birds cooking and purifying some water for later. On the topic of food stew is God. If you can hoard some salt, pepper and bouillon cubes you can burn through those perishables and fatten up for winter. It's the main reason I keep a stew pot on me. Throw whatever you have into some dirty water. Add seasoning and once it's cooked, hunger, thirst, depression and boredom are all gone The 38 is a piece of sh!t....that being said your glove box can probably hold more 38 bullets than God and it's the quietest gun in the game. Also it doesn't require magazines so there's no dead weight to carry when you empty it Good luck
12:05 damn no wonder i was banned from the local blockbuster.
Electrical level 4 lets you power lamps via battery. Which, as someone in month 6, and desperate for light (6 gens, no magazine), electrical sounds really nice. There's also an antique oven in Muldraugh below the Self-Storage Buildings, and above the Laundromat. Or depending how you view maps; East of the Self Storage, West of the Laundromat.

Some very useful information there, some things I knew and some I didn't! There's always new things to learn about Project Zomboid and the community in general and videos like this are so useful! I would like to add an Addition to Tip 78: those long warehouses are great to visit later in a playthrough as well. All the sacks of produce will become rotten fairly quickly making them a gold mine of compostable material, so take a vehicle with a decent capacity and stock up!

Yeah some useful stuff for sure, but a lot of these are exploits and if you intend to play the game as, well...intended...then you shouldn't use them. Also, it's like the tips are designed for a child who had too much sugar and had ADHD and zero patience...why should you have to do everything quickly? Part of the allure of the game is just...surviving. Trying to speedrun everything destroys a lot of the vibe it was meant to go for. Also, another flaw in this KZreadr's logic is him thinking you should level everything up...no, you should figure out what kind of character you want, and then play to those strengths. Your playstyle should thus change based on the kind of character you have...this guy complains of being bored a lot, so it surprises me that he'd always try to play the same way, but I guess if you're impatient this thought wouldn't occur to you

Fun tip - on second floor, building a wooden floor and then dissembling it will remove the floor and make a hole. So removing the floor tiles around the staircase will do the same as destroying the staircase with a sledgehammer.

This is majorly obscure but getting a point in nimble doesn't just give 75% xp but actually 300%. Its badly worded but normal xp gain is actually 25% so 75% is x3 normal xp It makes the skill actually feel more balanced. If you dont have bonus XP in nimble....well thats just pure agony and honestly a reason to reroll.

I have played project zomboid for 512 hours and am just now finding out that "jogging" and "Sprinting" are different things. I have never sprinted in project zomboid. I just assumed it got faster the higher you got but never bothered grinding the skill because it takes too long.

For tip 57, what would be the recommended armor for making sure you don't get the moodle but also stay relatively protected? I tend to do police jacket, bulletproof vest, fire fighter pants, helmet, and desert boots
I like lucky because it’s funny being in America and truly finding a gun case in about half the nightstands or dressers in any given house. Also if you want a truly reliable weapon and were lucky enough to find a machete, attaching it to a spear and reclaiming it resets the “repaired” amount, allowing you to repair it twice and have a 50%+ machete until just reattaching it to a spear and repeating.
Tip 34: “Antique ovens do not have the ability to use VHS tapes” *Pulls melted plastic casserole from the oven* Damn it…
“If you use a machete to make 13 spears, refund the game and purchase a helmet.” DAMNNNN
