Can I Survive The BACKROOMS In Cataclysm Dark Days Ahead?

[@Sniperx9347]

it always surprises me how people play this game so well its controls are crazy at times bet this is going to be a fun watch.

[@irkanorphyn]

Takes getting used to. I haven't played in a few years, so I've forgotten most of the shortcuts. Cdda and CoQ really should redo the ui/controls to make it even better imo

[@jackhazardous4008]

Games like this and DF are fun, but if you're gonna play them it needs to be the only thing you do for the next several years if you want to "win"

[@ilovehumongoushonkers]

coq isn't that complicated in terms of controls compared to cdda​@@irkanorphyn

[@thatguynameddan2136]

​@@jackhazardous4008 this is true to me as well, i can have one set of overcomplex controls in my head at a time and it's DF currently. CDDA has always seemed relatively impenetrable to me.

[@YourPalKindred]

The controls really arent that bad. Most of it is logical stuff. Numpad for movement. E to examine, D to drop, C to chat, G to grab, I for inventory, etc. Everything else you can look up at any time with ? and menu controls are displayed all the time. You should have it down in a few hours

[@shazbot91]

Semi-pro tip: When you are bleeding, if you empty your hands and wait in a single spot you will put pressure on the wound and stop the bleeding a lot quicker!

[@YourPalKindred]

It's honestly a little OP at times. One of my characters got shot in the chest by a turret at the start of the game and I stopped the bleeding by just pressing on the wound for a while. I did end up with hypovolemia or whatever, blood loss shock, but I survived.

[@junkjackcriteria]

@@YourPalKindred Note: Extreme levels of bleeding cannot be hand-pressed closed anymore(in experimental branch). Source: Ate a .30-06 from hostile survivor, had to run back to a bathroom to find real heal

[@YourPalKindred]

@@junkjackcriteria Good to know, thankyou. I was shot with a 5.56 but I imagine that would count.

[@nopenope8418]

@@YourPalKindred Ironically, if this is modelled so close to reality, the lower the blood pressure from blood loss, the slower the bleeding and the higher the chances a wound will self-close. Though it is a fine line between blood loss and hypovolemic shock which can cause the heart to stop from being over-stressed.

[@Pr1vateLime]

I only do it when the bloodloss is huge or it doesnt stop after a few active turns!

[@aiedenoldstien9751]

I love how the man struggles to break a chair on his own. Though the bar of soap lets him crumple it

[@Pr1vateLime]

ITS SOME DENSE STUFF

[@jninja5758]

If anyone wants to know how complex CDDA; I’ve been playing four about four years and *still* find new things about every time I play. The game is MASSIVE in content. High learning curve but it really feels like a game that can be played forever

[@Pr1vateLime]

Its what keeps me coming back for real!!!

[@yahyathegameenjoyer]

Today i played a bionic soldier, ran into the middle of town, got into a hmv, with a horde on my tail killed half with a mounted mg while bieng mauled by the other. 11/10

[@guidedexplosiveprojectileg9943]

​@@yahyathegameenjoyer I pulled up to a helicopter base went to the fuel section and got mauled to death after seeing a huge zombie soilder horde

[@mdb45424]

From someone with way to many hours, i recommend mmking a few nail broads. Easy to craft and a decent damage to zeds that move on it. Also hallucinations will not trigger it so it will help a bit when you need to speed hours crafting with hallucinations

[@Pr1vateLime]

Oooh good call!!!!

[@seela1924]

Also quick tip, fast reflexes has more value per point thst just directly investing to dodge + you can train dodge on top which gives you even bigger change to not get hit Also torso and arm encumbrance reduces attack speed and all encumbrance reduces dodge (biggest ones being torso and eyes)

[@Pr1vateLime]

Good to know!

[@seela1924]

@@Pr1vateLime also i forgot to mention dexterity plays a role in dodge too for example dexterity penalty caused from pain lowers effective dodge while higher base dexterity increases it around 1 effective dodge per 1-2 levels. (u/ANoobInDisguise made a good table of effecive dodge percentages around 8 months ago if youre interested in some technical elements of it)

[@ob64]

Oh man, I've never been able to get very far in this mod, though watching this has reignited my interest in attempting to get a run that sticks. Can't wait to see how later episodes unfold!

[@Pr1vateLime]

I wish you luck on that golden run dude!!!!

[@micheal7932]

Famous Last Words: "Oh, he was real..."

[@onura46]

Love CDDA; glad to see you playing it

[@Pr1vateLime]

Ahhhh gotcha!!!! DOnt worry, backseating is a given lol

[@C.T-r8b]

nice vid as usual but I have some tips as someone whose wasted an inordinate amount of time in this game. I really wouldn't recommend running with Kaluptic, its legitimately one of the worst traits in terms of annoyance and its very rare for a hallucination to actually effect gameplay. Like for there to be a dangerous enemy in a place that makes sense (ie it fools you) and for that to meaningfully affect you decision making is incredibly rare so the trait is really just annoying. Also crouching around isn't necessarily a good idea in areas with enclosed spaces where enemies can round the corner on you. enemies can smell you from roughly the same area as they can hear your normal footsteps and your lower move cost from crouching will lead to scenarios where an enemy detects you and moves close to you around a corner. I'm not necessarily telling you how to play, just giving advice from playing too much of this dumb game

[@Tsukasa-TheWizard]

Kaluptic always seems like one of those 'content creator' traits, because it makes for funny interactions in the media, but by and large its not worth taking for any even remotely serious run.

[@Pr1vateLime]

Yea i definitely see how itd be unbearable in a long term run. Its why i only pick it for quick characters that I know are gonna die lol

[@exploratory-fordora9672]

YOOO another cataclysm dark days ahead video! Love to see it!

[@loganschrader7568]

Used to play this game years ago! So happy to see it get some more well-deserved attention

[@Pr1vateLime]

I wanna give it a bunch more! Its a fun game

[@genericname6568]

5:40 You can put pressure on your wounds by passing time with nothing in your hands, which effectiveness is determined by the severity of bleeding and your hand encumbrance.

[@PsychopathicCake]

Eeeeeeeepppppppiiiiiiccccc! Thanks Lime for this video. I really been enjoying your content especially recently. I’m praying that you had a great Christmas and that you have a blessed new year! Can’t wait to watch you all throughout 2024

[@Pr1vateLime]

Awe thanks

[@sobrietyliiving]

Really enjoyed this! Looking forward to seeing more!

[@Pr1vateLime]

theres def gonna be more in the future!

[@Travelenthusiastrk28]

I'm hyped for a future series..I love your cdda challenges for sure Lime!

[@Pr1vateLime]

HELL YEA!!! I have a buncha more ideas in line! (namely island survival)

[@solana2301]

this is so cool! I would love to see this as a series!

[@Pr1vateLime]

Maybe not a series but I have SO many ideas for this game

[@2ndbrain909]

I’m so excited for this!

[@JamiJones_VT]

I didn't know they had a back rooms mode that's pretty dope honestly this is really enjoyable to watch I hope you do more

[@heatdeath217]

I love your vids on CDDA! The game is so rich and complex, but I can't wrap my head around it enough to play it myself!

[@Masstastico]

Please make this a long series

[@MeIoTheYellow]

13:10 A hat for Illusionist now worn by a delusionist.

[@rocker_kitty3807]

Ooh neat, I was curious to see more of this game. There's so much depth to it, I don't know if I could ever remember half the stuff it seems like you can do heh. Here's hoping Lime can survive a few days in the Backrooms!

[@Pr1vateLime]

1 will be a miracle

[@sefy5082]

Loved it. Would love to see more

[@Pr1vateLime]

Dw! Thers gonna be more!

[@EiMitan]

If this gets a bit stale will you try out Sky Island mod? The Extraction convertion one

[@Pr1vateLime]

Got plans for it!!! Just wanted to wait so i dont have 2 extraction series ongoing rn!

[@EiMitan]

@@Pr1vateLime Awesome! CDDA from you is always a treat!

[@yuyaplays9311]

cata is such a good game glad to see it on the channel again

[@Pr1vateLime]

Aye awesome to hear!!!!!

[@zalathihel]

Yo this game is wilding, never heard of it before but would love to see more

[@Pr1vateLime]

Its SUPER fun, if you can get past the control scheme!

[@Dann-qp2uw]

Would love to see you play the innawood mod also with dinosaurs :)

It may or may not be planned!!!!!

Always a good day when Lime uploads CDDA :)

[@Pr1vateLime]

Lots of future good days then!

10:49 you can use > to open containers to check whats inside

[@HannoImmelman]

To see how easily the soup breaks a chair, I think it's the ultimate weapon.

[@Pr1vateLime]

Almost as powerful of a tool as the towel

[@victoresarey4036]

Brave sir Robin ran away....bravely ran away. When danger came and reared its head he quickly tucked his tail and fled...

[@diseabronx5075]

And that wizard hat had such a good spell on it.

[@dickyboi4956]

Crazy how i just started playing again a day ago and you upload this

[@swifferzap9122]

soap came in clutch

[@Zulk_RS]

"Shower Victim". Seeing as how he's holding soap, I'm guessing he slipped in the shower and instead of hitting the ground, he noclipped into the backrooms instead. Damn don't you hate it when that happens?

[@bigbutte5804]

Dodged death just to go here

[@giveth]

Please do another episode of this!

[@2ndbrain909]

Pls make this a series.

[@john98765333]

Ah yes, soap. The thing commonly known for being better at breaking chairs than humans.

[@DrakeBarrow]

Fun vid, always nice to see someone messing with the Backrooms mod.

[@Pr1vateLime]

Its prolly one of the better backrooms experiences!! THe only thing missing is the mod to remove zeds and only keep the eldritch horror

[@JGT-yd2wx]

Considering how in depth CDDA is it would be awesome if they added this as a real feature if you try to noclip through walls.

[@Pr1vateLime]

I would LOVE that

[@aaronmatson5]

Awwwww yeah, another cdda play through 🎉

[@twocvbloke]

When you're busy washing your nads, only to end up falling into some strange place with moist carpets and scary inhabitants... :P

[@arcadianpunk]

God this game, first couple of times playing/learning (50+ hours) I had a horse, I was traveling around with my horse, I love my horse, I try to cross a bridge, because i'm riding a horse I was not able to see that there were landmines on the road, I blow up, my horse is now just a bunch of bones and guts on the road, both my legs are fucked, i cant move, in great pain, explosion attracted robozombies, I get destroyed. 10/10 would blow up my horse again.

[@jerryreed6024]

That's real brave to think I wouldn't just click because lime uploaded

[@Voelsen]

I am a simple man: I see CDDA content, I upvote.

[@broken-bones-j8u]

for some reason when i saw this video's title i just stayed staring at it like "Huh" for almost a solid minute

[@joca_sol]

Got very interested on this game, hope you'll continue with it, I'm trying to learn it but I'm still dumb on it 😂

[@Pr1vateLime]

YOull get the hang of it!!!!

[@holysol]

i dont remember cdda having backrooms in it? this a mod? you got a link?

[@ewa8723]

when are you continuing the VS arctic series?

[@Shadowgun453]

More of this plz; along with zomboid and Vintage story.

[@poimon5607]

Played CDDA (For real and not just open it and then close it because it's too daunting) for the first time recently and really it's surprisingly easy to get your bearings controls and ui wise, felt really similar to my first experience with DF where it was really daunting to get into but surprisingly simple to play. If you wanna play and have been holding off just because of the controls dw about it. Take a look through the keybinds and help page and you'll be right on track

[@DubManor]

Your laugh is majestic 😆

[@okayfam5643]

What tilesets do you use? It looks pretty good compared to the base game

[@michaelstevens6470]

He's using the undeadpeople tileset in the vid

[@jinhong91]

Maybe try another character in the same world or try the Sky Islands mod, which changes up the game considerably You can also import previous characters into this world (as long as they weren't created in much older game versions)

[@Pr1vateLime]

I really wanna do a buncha challenge runs like the prison island escape scenario!!!

[@jamescollins2068]

MOAR CATACLYSM! Please.

[@GlowingGoldGames]

yo u gotta make a part 2

[@captaintofu4926]

I hope you will return to CDDA. never got into it, but it looks very interesting

I have 3 other series ideas for the game!

Oh boy I wanna see you play Fear and hunger😭😭

[@Pr1vateLime]

Ahhh maybe!!!!

[@chuwaah]

WOW CAN'T BELIEVE SOMEONE'S STILL PLAYING THIS! I've been playing for YEARS and I still haven't properly fixed and used a damn car
