NOW AVAILABLE - Infinity Horde Mod (7 Days to Die v1.0)

[@SaiceShoop]

This is really cool. But honestly, I'm not much of a challenge kind of player. But I do love the idea of the kill quota idea with time stopping until you killed enough. Would love that as a standalone mini mod

[@Mossyz.]

Just a quick question....How many hours have you got on this game to make a comment such as this . ?

[@CautiousPancake]

No worries if it's not for you, but its a mod that you can add to the game if you want.

[@oneill6291]

Sick! Going to try this on my next playthrough. Love the idea of having to kill a certain amount!

[@CautiousPancake]

Awesome - have fun!

[@DerValiser]

Thanks a lot, really good idea. And interesting, that you can set the time just by plain xml now.

[@CautiousPancake]

You're welcome - hope you enjoy playing it if you get a chance! On the xml side - they have added a lot of gameevents - mostly for the twitch integration - but this gives a bunch of fun options to use!

[@blackmuton]

Your vids are my go-to for gaming content! Keep it up!

[@CautiousPancake]

Thanks so much!

[@riplee1072]

Great video loved it and also great mod too. Keep up the good work. This is a great mod in my opinion if you need to experience and loot bag drops for whatever... Anyways keep up the good work love the videos! And by the way can we expect another playthrough video maybe for 1.0? :-) enjoyed the last playthrough a lot!!

[@CautiousPancake]

Hi riplee, and thanks! Yes I have some ideas for 1.0, not sure if I should have done just a vanilla one, but I'll be doing a modded run at some point!

[@riplee1072]

[@MrMacavity]

[@CautiousPancake]

Thanks MrMac 😀

[@yvels3685]

Thank you so much! I'll test it in my next 64 zombies horde on insane permadeath headshots only. if I die I will claim I got killed by CautiousPancake!

[@CautiousPancake]

haha knowing you- it'll be too easy!

@@CautiousPancake well after loggin in into my game: SURPRISE! horde started! it was past 22h lol... so after initial AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA OMG why theres dozens of birds??? wheres my stacks on 7.62 AP ?!?! I guess first horde with this mod is like 10 zombies count or so? so its scales up gradually? it doesn't scale with Game Stage from the go? I'm level 105, day 53, Game stage 412. Also my base is on forest/wasteland biomes; crafting in the forest for birds chirping and fighting on the wasteland side; I noticed that I MUST be on the wasteland side at 22:00 if not I wont get high tier radiated zombies. Guess game sets horde difficulty on the location at 22:00. also horde ended before 2am.. not sure why... maybe because it started when I loggen-in I was in forest biome?

[@CautiousPancake]

@@yvels3685 Sorry, it needs to be a new game to work correctly. Zombie composition is still driven from gamestage (which is evaluated at the start of horde normally) but length of horde is driven by day number - whcih only gets counted from 1. If I can figure out a way for a mod to know what day it is, this mod would be so much simpler, and would then support multiplayer (or at least support it a little). Sorry for the confusion!

[@yvels3685]

@@CautiousPancake so will it count +1 everyday from now on? I dont mind it at all.

[@CautiousPancake]

@@yvels3685 Yes - it tracks night then day in the background and adds one on for each new day (as long as it saw the night, so don't use settime to jump forward or it won't work ;)

[@TabiTheCat]

yay! all the content creators can spam this mod content now! (There is no other reason to play outside of mods)

[@CautiousPancake]

I will be excited if someone gives it a go!

[@meganjroberts]

The hoard every night version sounds crazy!

[@yvels3685]

its actually not that bad. once you can supply enough ammo for every horde its just the same that gets more of a chore than anything: kill-off horde, repair base, mine, smelt, craft resources for next horde and upgrades. I did about 10 days on insane permadeath headshots only 64 zombies in wasteland and figured that as long as Im at 1300 7.62 AP ammo production everyday I can do that everyday no problem. it got even easier when I could penetrate even more. after 10 days I was using about 900 7.62 AP. Problem is the loot: it just suck. not a single quality6 for hundreds of yellow, blue and red bags... and most gear you have dropping you can buy it at trader doing 2-3 mins mining stone and sell it; even easier to craft at this point. Hordes are definitely a letdown in 1.0 vs alpha21 where you could expect highest quality loot.

[@CautiousPancake]

Thanks - hopefully it's a bit of fun!

[@CautiousPancake]

The theory with the infinity horde is that it gets harder and harder to keep up with ammo. Hopefully it's a fun challenge and not just a grind though, and forces decisions as to try and go do a quest to get better gear, or go resource hunting for ammo to keep up with the horde. Hard to get the balance right though!

[@yvels3685]

@@CautiousPancake Im definitely NOT getting my ammo back with horde loot. not by a long shot.

[@CautiousPancake]

@@yvels3685 Agree 100% - loot bags do not cover ammo expended for horde night - which I assume is by design, to force you to get out and interact with the world.

[@markwest6392]

Ive been looking but havent found anything have you gone through and rechecked any of your bases for 1.0 i like alot of them but im unsure if any of them still work

[@CautiousPancake]

Thanks for asking - I've not done a video on them as so far, they all still work. Anything using my 11 blocks rule anyway will still function the same. Any base in particular you were thinking of?

[@tidee7782]

how can you tell if the mod is working/installed correctly?

[@CautiousPancake]

That's a good question... and currently you can't :'( - well, unless you're prepared to enable debug and check the cvars. If you do want to do that, I can add some instructions, but I probably need to consider how to flag that it's working, so that you don't have to worry about it. The first actual visible indicator will only be 1 hour before horde, when the kill count required buff appears.
