Humbug Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Why is the rarity on bread so high? Pretty much every home should have bread, right? But I almost never find any in my looting sprees. I'm even finding more axes and other supposedly rare things than I do bread. What gives? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Redeker Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Flip side. Bread isn't lasting long in the Kentucky humidity. And it's the first thing survivors would take with them. It's maybe part of the unspoken lore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Livio Persemprio Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 yep, looks like the balance of a lot of common loot has changed, though it doesn't really affect negartively my games, excpet for one BIG exception: i couldn't find a spiffo plush for ages FOR AGES ;____; #BRINGBACKSPIFFO #MENEEDSPIFFO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Humbug Posted March 8, 2017 Author Share Posted March 8, 2017 You need bread to make burgers. A zombie apocalypse without burgers is a lot more depressing than it has to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BumWhipper Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Find the good cooking magazine. Flour, Yeast, Rolling pin, Salt, Water. Voila bread dough. Not exactly a rare magazine anymore since they spawn in mailboxes and kitchens a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humbug Posted March 18, 2017 Author Share Posted March 18, 2017 Yeah I know you can bake your own bread. But I wanted to know why the rarity of bread is so extremely high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thiosk Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 I'm more worried about milk. What the hell why is there no milk? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farming live stock will probably be put in whenever they add hunting wild game a thing, but it's not top priority. Also @Peetfighter why can't the Americans (Myself) just adopt the way the Germans process their milk, they're fine for like up to a month when left out UNREFRIGERATED (Until you open it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I work at a processing plant in the Netherlands that packs milk with a shelf life up to 12 months. But that aside, sterilized UHT milk wasn't introduced in the USA until June 1993, just after the fictive zombie outbreak of Project Zomboid. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra-high-temperature_processing#Worldwide_use Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humbug Posted March 24, 2017 Author Share Posted March 24, 2017 While I'm a big fan of milk, this thread was about bread and the lack thereof. Please don't hijack it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mean to hijack your topic, I guess its that I don't feel like bread is really all that rare. There are a couple bakeries that at game start you can hit for several loaves each, and now that breadmaking is viable with yeast and flour. Its really just a function that every fridge gets 1-8 items, and there are dozens of possible items that can be found in fridges, so you don't find as much food. I think as the game continues to advance with cars and larger maps, I rather doubt abundance of items will go up- if anything things will probably get rarer as the number of items continues to increase. The other thing is that according to lore that a lot of people got the heck out of dodge, so there will be a greater than average number of homes found empty and with all the doors open in muldraugh and pileups of cars outside of town with (hopefully with trunks full of rotting and nonperishable food that they grabbed in a desperate gambit to get to indiana.)

Faalagorn Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 I'm not sure about Muldraugh in that particular period of time, but I think that bread should be found in cupboards as it's rarely being kept in fridges from what I know :). The bread also spoils really fast, so you have to be fast with running toward bakery, if you'd want to use it. It'd be nice to see more bread outside the refridgerators and bakeries, andit'd still spoil quick, similar to how quickly corn spoils at the corn fields Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humbug Posted March 26, 2017 Author Share Posted March 26, 2017 Should be able to find bread in freezers as well tbh. It lasts for a pretty long time there. And I know it's kinda RNG but I've gone through several shopping marts (big ones too) and literally not find a single loaf of bread. In my current game I have like 10 axes and never found bread even once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zombadger Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Bread from stores spoils relatively quickly. Even with the Calcium Propionate. That's why I freeze a couple loaves every time I make bread, to extend the time until I need to make bread again. @Queen Glory knows what it is that is up. The freezer door is for bread and bags of peas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erkinwine Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 I have had little problem finding bread. Seems just as common as always. My problem is axes. Going on 18 days, now and still no axe. By now, I should have killed a zombie with one. I'm about to kill my 300th zombie. They have had pistols, knives, lots and lots of magazines and newspapers, but no axes. Normally, about 1 in 150 zombies has an axe. It's a good thing they don't use them on you. That would be rough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least with axes you can craft the stone ones . Bread isn't such needed commodity too, as as long as you have any food, you are fine, but I agree it's odd to not see much bread (and milk) but a plethora of fruits, veggies and meat. I honestly only know a few people if at all who don't have bread and milk in their homes, but it's not uncommon to only have fruits only sporadically.

Now, does your homemade bread break and become useless when you attempt to slice it? Your stone axe is likely to break the first time you use it.

Funny enough I think it does As in being unable to be added to certain evolved recipes in exchange to being able to be used as a base for one. On the other hand, I remember having no issues using stone axes for chopping trees on my previous playthrough. Will see if it's any troublesome this time, but I don't think so. On the other hand I had plethora of axes from the lucky trait, actually more that I could use - so personally I'm glad this part got changed. But again, the topic is about bread, not axes, so we're dertailing a bit . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
