Dora's Condemned house remnants are actually helping him out, because the zombies have to spend so much time jumping over obstacles that they cant attack his base.

[@Azrael_5150_]

He made a good call on not cleaning it up! When they were giving him crap about the mess of a house I was kinda looking at it like he could at least get some materials back if he cleaned it up, until he said something like it's an obstacle for the zombies, at that point I sided with Dora and his mess but I definitely didn't think it was going to be this effective lol

[@urazz7739]

Actually, it's hurting him as well. They take so long to get to him that it just builds up to such a high amount that Dora isn't able to handle it. Neebs had a similar issue and that was based entirely on his base design.

[@johnplaysgames3120]

@@urazz7739 Also, Dora already has a lot of problem with lag on his potato and I know from experience with 7DtD that more rubble = more framerate issues. As we saw in a recent episode, Dora's framerate is atrocious and it's severely handicapping him. The more the garbage piles up around him, the worse that issue will probably become.

[@White_Tiger93]

instead of block dmg you could use a mods that increase zombie spawn like, a couple hundred but also need long night to fight all of them.

[@Techstriker1]

So is the boat grounded, or did they fix the whole "break one block and the whole boat collapses" thing?

[@johnplaysgames3120]

@@White_Tiger93 The only problem with that is that Dora is already experiencing tons of lag. If they add way more zombies, I think the game will be unplayable for him (it already almost is). Short of buying Dora a new computer, increasing block damage is the best way to increase difficulty right now. If they max that out and everyone is still hanging in there, then they may need to up the damage zombies do to players. Don't get me wrong: I'd love to see larger hordes in the game. But if you remember seeing the view from Dora's computer in a recent ep, then you know that he's already in frame hell (which, personally, I think is unfair to him since Appsro doesn't have the same problem with framerate).

Ya'll I look forward to these episodes, don't let the haters get you down! And great job on staying alive Dora, that was hairy!

[@thefaithslayer2553]

I've said this before... The reason why they're constantly swarming Dora is because Simon and Appsro have surrounded their bases with spikes and spikes are like a sort of zombie repellent now. Whenever possible, they will avoid running through spikes. Since Appsro and Simon are surrounded by spikes, they're going after Dora instead. By the way...this has been my favorite 7D2D series you've guys have done since the old days of the lighthouse and the shithole bases. It would seem anyone who thinks this series has gotten stale is in the minority. If you're looking to spice things up a bit more, but a ban on doing any missions below Tier 3 or 4. That way, there is a genuine risk of death doing missions, too.

[@MisterPuck]

They can also raise the difficulty until it's at the max, and then switch to increasing the Zombies speed. That's a much more direct way of upping the ante.

[@johnplaysgames3120]

Agreed about the bases. Also, Dora doesn't seem to understand that the entire purpose of a stair base is to act as a zombie magnet. In a single-player or co-op game, you'd use a stair base to control the flow of zombies, leading them to you so you can shoot them on a path of your choosing (rather than having them come from every direction). In a competition like this, you don't want to lead the zombies to you; you want them to path toward the other players. Unfortunately for Dora, the other two players are sitting on platforms surrounded by traps, so Dora - with his path leading right up to him - is the easiest meal sitting at the end of the path of least resistance. And, of course, the only other player in the competition to use the stair base design was Neebs, the guy who lost because the zombies kept pathing right to him instead of the other players. Dora is copying a failed strat and then being surprised that it's failing.

I don't think it's redundancy that's bothering people. From what I saw on reddit comments it was more how unbalanced the horde nights zombie spawnings are. Where the same people get swarmed every night while whoever isn't getting swarmed barely gets any zombies. It's not fair (look how much further appspro is compared to Dora) and the novelty of it wore off several episodes ago. If the spawns keep up like this and Unless appspro goes and does a bunch of stupid stuff and gets himself killed he's already got this won just because zombies don't bother him on horde nights. Whoever made the map should try and patch the zombie spawns so they are more evenly dispersed.

[@Devin_Stromgren]

Simon for some reason isn't getting anything, I wonder if his loot stage is so much lower the game is spawning less for him?

[@johnplaysgames3120]

@@pApA0LeGBa Dora isn't unlucky. Dora - like Neebs before him - built a stair base, the entire purpose of which is to act as a zombie magnet. In a single-player or co-op game, you'd use a stair base to control the flow of zombies by leading them up a path of your choosing so you can shoot them (rather than having them swarm in from all directions), allowing you to focus your attention in one main direction rather than multiple. In a competition like this, you don't want the zombies to path to you, you want them to path to the other guys. Unfortunately for Dora, the other guys have built bases that are up on platforms surrounded by traps and, therefore, are harder to reach. The zombie AI sees two hard-to-reach players and one player with a path leading right up to him and chooses the easiest path. Dora is doing it to himself by not understanding the purpose of a stair base, using it in the wrong context, and basically copying the same failed strat that Neebs used. He needs to dump the stairs and make himself harder to reach. Also, there's nothing luck based about how the zombies act in 7DtD. The AI chooses the path of least resistance. Period. Dora has built his base to be the path of least resistance because he sees that that's a type of base that 7DtD players build but he doesn't understand WHY they build them. It's the wrong choice here and he's paying the price for it, no luck involved.

[@johnplaysgames3120]

@@quantum5768 Simon isn't getting anything because his sea of spikes is making the AI avoid him. Zombie AI always chooses the path of least resistance and, thanks to having so many spikes, Simon is harder to reach than Dora. Simon is getting fewer and fewer zombies as the game goes on because he keeps adding more spikes and making himself even harder to reach. If it was based on their level or progression (or spawning specific numbers for each player), Simon would be getting more zombies than before, not less. Appsro also isn't the only one getting bombers. Dora has gotten them too. That's why there was the conversation in the previous episode where Appsro wondered aloud if it would be fair of him to shoot the bombers at Dora's base. So the presence of bombers doesn't mean they're specifically spawning for designated players. The amount of zombies and their level is determined by a combined level of all the players (iirc) or by the highest one or something, but, once they're on the map, they simply take the path of least resistance. Appsro and Simon have made themselves harder to reach than Dora, so they get fewer zoms and Dora gets a zombie party every night (just like Neebs, who used the same "zombie magnet" base design as Dora).

He's doing tier 2 poi's on day 29. There's 0 risk in doing those.

[@therim187]

@@Indeciferable lets be fair here, Appsro has everything he needs. he's making his own concrete, and is basically just looting for ammo and books to make a crucible, unless he already bought one. He also doesn't have the time to do a t4 or t5 and then get back to the base in enough time to make repairs before the night falls. Both Simon and Dora had a death because they thought they could take a T4 in the time they have. They are only playing on 1 hour day cycles, so really he has 20-30 minutes to go out looting before he needs to get back.

[@JeffSmith-um7mr]

Well done Dora. That was a nail-biter. When I saw you drop at like 2310 I thought for sure you wouldn't make it almost 5 hours on a prayer. I had trouble with pathing on my base too. They go the path of LEAST spikes for me. So if your stairs are protected by a path of 3 spikes and your pillars are only 2, they'll go pillars. It's why Simon is having so much 'luck'. His paths are all 15+ spikes.

[@coachlombardi9657]

Appsro: GET HIM! GET HIM! Me: GET HIM! GET HIM!

[@p4narukami]

I was saying the exact same thing.

[@codywoodell1591]

I loved the scene Appsro keeps trying to chop heads off. It gave me some nostalgia of the VR Dooku Head Chop scene

[@Sapphire707]

Should Neebs be looting POIs of precious stuff like books when he's already lost xD?

[@johnplaysgames3120]

POIs reset when you do them (that's why you don't want to leave stuff in the perimeter of a POI before you start the mission; your stuff will disappear when the POI resets). As long as Neebs is going far away and not tying up a POI when someone else is looking for one to loot, I don't think it matters. I think that's why they sent him to the yacht, suggested the tower, etc. Those were locations they knew none of them were going to go to. I would hope that, behind the scenes, Neebs is asking before he takes a mission. Like, if he wants to try a level 4 and no one else is planning to do a level 4 that day, then it doesn't really matter. And if someone somehow chose a mission with the same POI, I imagine he'd have to bail out of his mission and let them reset the POI.

@@johnplaysgames3120 "that's why you don't want to leave stuff in the perimeter of a POI before you start the mission" Yep, I was encumbered and left some loot in the car outside of Joe's USA and then hit the mission and realized what I had done. Damn near punched my computer screen because of my own stupidity.

It's not stale you have a die hard 7 days following and we love you

[@Vradica]

Everyone else when they find a treasure map: "aaaayyyyeee, a treasure map! adventure time!" Simon when he find a treasure map: *quietly ignores it, too much hassle*

[@RAPTOR948]

I was legit expecting Dora to die this episode. Blueballed again. Neebs got to find out what the yacht is all about. And we're all satisfied with it. Simon had an exciting start, and so far his fucktillion spikes saved him again, keeping things quiet for him. Appsro... He had fun, and he survived. Good for him! He's the furthest ahead out of everyone in terms of defenses. M y money is on him winning this whole thing.

[@LantosLGC]

Well Done Dora!!!!

[@Idlemind842]

If you guys do this series again in the future you could try moving to a new biome every 7 or 14 days, that would stop one person always being the main target and limit Appsro's tech snowballing as well as keeping the series fresh.

[@Lonewolf0840]

"Leave me alone. I love you!" - Simon

[@riptide6161]

I think this was, is, and will continue to be a fun series to watch. Dora's mad scramble for survival is an indicator of what's about to happen within the next few gamedays.

[@PrismaticController]

Will Dora be sitting on the sidelines with Neebs or will be persevere? (Can't wait to watch this. You guys always make my day with 7DtD videos.)

[@barbaramcfarland5462]

I am not at all bored by this series. I love it and hope you guys keep it going for as long as you can!!!

[@SaintSolo]

Team SIMON!!!

[@SirBobbyDuncan]

Simon's defense reminds me of when I play Tower defense games and just put the same tower all across the board 😂

[@Syst3mat1cErr0r]

Let's go team Simon!

[@heathercurry898]

Wow that was a nail-biter at the end! Cant believe there wasn’t a new death.

[@MythicKit]

Neebs should open up his own store for the guys and call it Deadmans Trade Post, Would still be fare I think if they just treated him like the other traders then and he could sell his loot.

[@therim187]

yeah, let him have the vending machines. it would still be a mark up over basic pricing, but would be cheaper than the actual trader. Simon would love it!

[@MythicKit]

@@therim187 that would be good but I think he should turn the ship into his shop if its not to far off.

[@TheLigon27]

I’m so glad they let Neebs stick around 😂

[@jjay2771]

I will laugh if when Dora goes down Simon is still alive and all the zombies start just mobbing Appsro while Simon is hanging out lol it would be hilarious to see him lose this one somehow.

[@soulking4281]

Neebs should sell loot in the player vending machine and could sell stuff he finds to others I don’t think it would be cheating just another trader

[@tjtoepler]

Trader Neebs! Great idea. He could build a whole shop too

[@jynx3662]

Did Neebs just yell "laugh" when everyone was actually laughing, lol that's great.

[@cptndred84]

I’m pretty sure Neebs put in the new rule, simply because he needs somebody to play with.
