I was just searching for a sandbox/survival game like Terraria or Starbound, and i've find out PZ, my first reaction "whoa... what a ridiculous name..." but... now it's my favorite game

I remember hearing about it on some gaming news site if I recall correctly- not a very widely read article I'm sure, I just happened to be browsing for games at the time- but I didn't go out and put it on my "Yup, I'm on board with this for sure" list until I saw Notch mention that he enjoyed the game (citation: https://twitter.com/notch/status/82754213846843393). I'm not exactly a Notch fanboy, but I do respect his taste in games- typically extremely similar to my own. So I checked it out and I've been following ever since.
 
I registered on the (old) Indie Stone Forums a few months later (November, if I recall correctly) and I've never once looked back. It's been a long, bumpy ride and taken me to some incredible and unexpected places, introduced me to some people I'm extremely proud to call my friends, and has evolved into one helluva game along the way.
 
That's my story, and I wouldn't trade any part of the experience for the world.
 
Edit: Oh, and due to various circumstances, I've bought the game on Google Checkout, Desura, and Steam.

Did I mention how much I love you guys???!?! Lol

Demand, eh?

what is your fetish?

I'd like to see it where, if you've been smashing the crap out of a zombie for a while, that zombie is slower/less lethal if you don't kill it. It would make some sense that my smashes would have done *some* damage and they shouldn't just get back up and run at me as quickly as ever.

do you really want to continue this? i've already established that the Bow and Arrow has been around for hundreds of years and has been used by numerous individual tribes in all parts of the world. in fact i guarantee you their are tribes that even today are still using a simple bow and arrow made from whatever materials they have at hand. these primitive bows have taken down all manners of prey in all types of conditions. and i conceded the truth that it is not an easy thing to do, it would require some trial and error.
 
it seems a big part of the issue here is that you are living with the assumption that the only things we will ever shoot with a bow or a gun is zombies. have you never noticed the actual names of the rifles we have (Hunting, Varmint)? we will have Hunting coming into the game at some point, along with NPC's both good and evil. if you want to disable a NPC without firing a gun and giving away your position, would you not use a bow and arrow?
 
oh yeah, the video.....i chose one at random. if you prefer an American using Alder could easily provide that. in fact, go crazy and watch all of these videos https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=making+a+bow+and+arrow

If i ever found you in MP wearing that kind of stuff, i will kill you so hard on the spot that even if you were bitten you wont reanimate anymore.

This...
Is...
AWESOME!
 
I really want this. In MP, this would be my IDEAL look (Devs, looking at you, please for all that's holy add some of these)
 
Head- Fedora, Black
Eyes- Ski goggles
Face- Bandanna, Black
 
Torso- Suit, Jacket, Tie combo (all black)
Legs- Trousers/Jeans, Black
 
Feet: Black boots.
 
Stylish AND practical.

Looks like a point to me

but it a lot more realistic if its hidden by an item or something hiding your identity.

It can be turned off by the admins of the server anyway. They can make everyone anonymous. This just makes it so they can just turn the masks on and you will know to shoot anyone in the masks on sight. No, it wouldn't be like DayZ because anyone shooting on sight without the mask will be exposed and anyone wearing the mask will be exposed for what they are and be shot anyway. So there's no chance of them tricking you into trust them just to shoot you and then getting away with it. 

Ah I see where you've misunderstood. The suggestion I am making is that samey food and "going outside" into walled gardens shouldn't relieve boredom/unhappiness (which will eventually matter, even though they are placeholders now). Hope that clears things up!

Definitely confirmed. Corpses will definitely make you sick at some point. That was the whole reason for adding burning corpses in the game. Not about the facewrap though. That was blasted taco's idea, good idea, but that bit hasn't been confirmed. 

Dang i really need to type up that forum for all my clothing ideas. Its spans a good 5-10 pages in a notebook and every time i go to type it it exits for some odd reason right before i'm done too. But yea +1. same thing i was going to say but the face wraps are new. gg on that.

Honestly, I like the concept of a drug fueled apocalypse, the Fallout games pull it off pretty well, albeit a bit cartoony. Adds to the dispair quite a bit.
As long as there's harsh, harsh side effects, I don't see anything wrong with survivors scavenging for ingredients to make meth to trade to junkies for food and guns. Nothing wrong from a thematic standpoint anyway.

Counter that with a Kit in the character creating menu, each profession cost between 6 to 10 points i think right? Once you pick a profession, you can pick if you spawn with a kit of that profession or not, but it would cost points like a trait.
 
Example i want a carpenter, it leaves you with +2 starting points for any trait, lets say that the Kit with a hammer and a box of nails costs -3 points.
 
Would you really give those 3 points for that kit?
 
It would be a way to balance it out without making the game easy, you have a project in mind? Here have a hammer and a box of nails, but you will need a negative trait.

They are a must i think anyway, sooner or later they will add that having rotting corpses inside your home to make you ill, so you will need a facewrap, kinda like Neo Scavanger, also more clothing variety is planned but not needed right now, i am more interested in the game begin feature completed before having cosmetic items added in.

Plz TIS add these soon so when im playing mutiplayer with a friend we wont look almost identical, Also 3D backpacks

That's a great idea too but I always assumed those were planned anyway. 

Good idea, but I'd also like more clothing variety like jackets and tukes, hoodies, t-shirts, gas masks, maybe some military clothing.

So basically I was just going to suggest some new clothing. But that's too simple and oh how I love trolling the devs with ever more difficult concepts. So here we go dev team, challenge being offered to be accepted at your leisure.
 
You can either add facewraps (using bandages and such to craft.) and ski masks. OR and here's the good part. You can add both of those *and* have them hide your identity in MP regardless of server settings for the sake of banditry. Now this can be over written by admin of server, but honestly, who would want to play on the server that did that?!?! Lol So come one and come all, challenge sent out!

jars and glass bottles would work too

Good point, i never thought about it lol
 
However as Fuji said, soda could work, thing is that we would need to drink soda like no tomorrow to have empty bottles.
