short answer: it's been dead for years and the developer put it on life support rather than addressing its numerous core issues, it's just that trading bots and degenerates have been inflating player numbers and trying to keep the marketplace stable for personal gains.

They had something new or unique, but in the end, it doesn't feel new or better. The zombies felt repetitive, there was little to no challenge at all and you didn't have the same feeling of the threat of death in games like Project Zomboid

Played a disgusting amount of Unturned back in the day and I can honestly attest to the RP servers being a large part of the downfall for Unturned as well. Largest part of responsibility falls for sure on the donor kit servers starting to get more and more popular but it was also the RP servers that were taking player base out of the proper servers. I miss semi-vanilla servers quite a bit, a simple kit or two with very basic gear and tpa access. It gave servers a slight bias towards pvp without tipping the scales too far into the madness, just enough to keep things active and competitive.

[@Alpn4]

For anyone here for information about why the game is dying and not boring information about it's mechanics: Starting from 2022 Nelson (dev) starting to make a lot of changes community didn't wanted. Here's some examples: Forced grass graphic parameter that destroyed fps for people on bad PCs (according to some of my folks). 3rd person nerf (everybody wanted maplestrike to be nerfed, not the 3rd person. Also, this change killed some modded maps balance, like France that had pretty balanced guns (like herstal)) Besides all that, he also did anti pay to win policy and after a month completely abandoned it (I even made a huge list of p2w servers that I reported back in the days, and only thing I've got was the message saying "you've miss understood the rules" (Even though most of the servers were EVEN SELLING /ITEM AND /VEHICLE)) All these changes made people quit and helped p2w servers to become swarmed with kids willing to pay money for kits and chat commands to gain stuff. So, should you go and play unturned? No, not in its current state. I wish if there would be some independent project that would start developing this game starting from the movement update, because it was one of the last good updates we gained. I have more than 5k hours in this game, trust me, it's not worth it anymore.

Escalation is the best map we've gotten in a while, but at the same time, I wish Nelson would drop official updates and maps like he used to do back in the day. I also saw someone comment about how Unturned's lore was a more critical part of the game and how they miss "discovering what happened with this virus, how every country or state reacted to the outbreak." I agree; after Elver came out, Unturned got a lot more fantasy stories and maps. That's not a bad thing at all, and I like it, but I can see how it became too much of a departure from what Unturned was initially for some people. If Nelson tried, he could revive his franchise, but honestly, he doesn't have an incentive to do so. He makes enough money. I think the announcement of Unturned 4.0 killed this game; everyone left the community because they were waiting for Nelson's new game, which would eventually be postponed indefinitely.

Its dying because unturned ISNT a survival game at all, atleast not on most servers. Hunger and thirst are not a concern, because food is everywhere. All of the servers feature cheap shit like /teleport to friends, are on easy mode, and the loot is so abundant you are never in need of anything... I dont see any hardcore servers... But however you tweak the game, i think the issue is just with its design. With time this game has devolved into a watered down hybrid of Day-Z and Rust, when it should've just tried to be unique on it's own right. Its not a survival game in its current state, its more of an arcade or "lite" version of the two aformentioned games; But everything is SO so much faster... You can go from naked on the shore to full spec-ops gear in 30 minutes if you know what to do... Its too easy and its just stale. Needs more beefy progression, you can "beat" unturned and see everything there is to see in a matter of hours. You can experience low end, mid, and high end PvP gunfights all in that short time, that it hardly feels like an accomplishment to reach those peaks.

[@jandamz1119]

An aspect I find that disinterested me from playing Unturned much is the lack of Vanilla additions. Almost every new major update is a curated map that hardly uses any of the vanilla systems. Hell, the weapon skin system is no longer unique because half of the popular servers and curated maps don't even use the vanilla weapons. "Ooh I unboxed/crafted a cool weapon skin; I sure hope I find the weapon on the new map :)". I used to get really interested when a new vanilla map was coming out or new vanilla items, now I just see a new curated map and see if they make use of vanilla stuff. Also the heavy focus on PvP in this game really soured the original concept of being a Zombie Survival game. Oh I wish for an update that adds even more zombie types or even enhancing how the zombies work.

the thing imo is that it became a low budget robloxed 2019 fortnite, no one cares about the actual survival part which is the whole point of the game, the game itself IS fun, it is very good, it's just that the community ruins it i played yesterday with my friends (both new to unturned), gathering loot together, helping each other and slowly progressing is very fun, a lot of people say that "Unturned isn't fun the way it is supposed to play, PvP is much better", idk about that, because coordinating your friends to explore the tunnels on Russia and having everyone turning the lights off by accident and shooting pistols blindly for a couple of seconds was one of the most fun moments i've had in my 20 years of gaming, the game itself is good (in fact, we are going to play tomorrow with 4 more friends) you just gotta play it right btw PvP in this game is also very fun on PvP oriented servers, but the way PvE is underapreciated is just unfair

For some reason, I would always return after a few years. I play on a totally random server, accidentally become friends with some random dudes. We start grinding, gaming and of course, goofin´ around. We form a deep friendship, I tell them they can join my huge friend group. _Cycle repeats_ _(That's why I have 940 Hours in the game, and I still absolutely suck at PVP. )_

[@RA-yq5ch]

My 2 cents are these: It died because of the server admins and the pvp focused community As for the server, admin abuse was rampant in the few servers i used to play, and things got to a point where that limited the fun. Only being able to have one base, unable to build on vehicles, which used to be so fun as people would have vehicle base pvp. The fact that the owner of a server liked a group made it so they could teleport into places and ignore rules. Fun fact, the admin turned out to cheat on his wife with a minor he had recluited as an admin. And then the pvp. The game i feel like is best without hypercompetitive players wiping the entire place just because they feel like it. The game is so focused into pvp in fact you'll won't find a server where you can't start playing at all. Back when a group of mine had dominance on server, we wouldn't raid anyone until they had a certain progress, like metal bases, helis. Now you can't even make a wooden base larger than 1x1 because it WILL get raided. In short, s**t admins, and the community focusing on pvp. I'll forever miss the times where me and my peeps would try to loot a city on a rainy night irl and in game, or host pvps and talks in our makeshift gun store

[@axtra9561]

waiting on people to build better bases is so true... I remeber raiding every base with my friend and we would have to legit have to wait on people to build stuff for us to raid. All you needed was a heartbreaker on washington and the game was complete

[@antimnaftan4755]

well the game is just flawed in general, normally losing progress in games is actually a fun mechanic because it gives tension to every fight but in here its just stress. Its fun to lose minutes to an hour of progress in a roguelike but its not fun to lose days or even weeks worth of progress no matter what so any fights are just super stressful and not fun and that coupled with the VERY small time to kill in this game AND the fact there is no where on the map you can put your items where they will be safe because offline raiding is a thing and you get a recipe for disaster, I dont know how you never saw any exploiters during your playtime but anytime I tried to play it it was completelly infested with cheaters. The only time I ever had fun with this game was when modders put in a battle royale gamemode but that gamemode is completelly dead now so I cant even play it anymore...

[@axtra9561]

the battle royale mode unturned had was not modded

[@hussyskunk6286]

Yeah, personally I had most fun in vanilla unturned server when in holidays. In normal days its impossible to play it due to offline raids, which imo is kind of part of the fun as me and my friends take turn in guarding base. But idk if other games have addressed these issue in a way where its both fair for the base owner / raider.

[@AmericanTragedy]

Problem with unturned is that it attracts a few new players and even after they decide to try it out there's a huge chance they'll just bail because the game has a fuckton of quit moments for example seeing the atrocious UI in which a new player has million ways to lose where tf are they. that's a part in which almost any survival game bests unturned in cuz if you open rust or dayz let alone minecraft you will be able to navigate the ui smoothly after like 4-10 hours and the ui doesn't overwhelm you, also the graphic style doesn't appeal to everyone because it's a weird hybrid of minecraft and idk

[@aaronblack7038]

Quick answer is that, the game was much better on literal release, by adding so many weird stuff, including those giant zombies that run at you with the speed of flash, if ur online, people just fight each other, it's like Rust but worse becauase everything is blocky and weird, servers aren't exactly high quality and it's just overall messy.

[@DanielDirzo-lc7pg]

Ty for bringing back a memory. I used to play it with my friends when I was younger and man, it was fun. I tried to come back but the game was full of RP servers, pvp, creative and the most vanilla thing were servers with x5 or just straight pvp kits, when I finally find one of course the server was dominated by a ten man clan always online camping military base, we manage to raid their base but it was pointless some of them had donator kits so we decided just to quit the game. I loved playing on vanilla or semivanilla with starter kits and tp, but right now it is almost impossible to find a server like this with active players. At least I have good memories, I miss the earlier unturned days but sadly its over I dont want to come back.

i believe what led to this is the game losing its identity, catering more to pubby kids who dont know anything about advanced game mechanics who's main focus is PVP rather than being an actual survival game where you need to fight against hordes of zombies luckily though since the game is free and can be played offline its still quite fun solo and you can create your own server for free that caters to the survival aspect of it one thing I would love to be added here is AI Bot Bandits

[@lemonjuice.]

my personal opinion on the matter is that pvp games suck and nelson turned it from what i believe was meant to be a survival game (possibly with team aspects) into another shooter clone. like if people wanted to shoot kids in video games for a couple hours, just play cod. maybe even rust if you really still want the survival aspects. don't say they can't because i can see the mythicals these kids wear so we all know damn well they can afford to play other games. like you said, elver is a great map because the progression is inherently difficult and to fully 100% the map, even just in singleplayer, will take hours of effort and grinding to complete the just the face-value material. there is a lot of secret work put into the map, world-building, and supposedly universe-building (see kuwait) and having the game be a simple loop of "find gun, kill person, repeat" is a major downside for the game in my opinion. there is a lot of effort put into these maps, their story and their mechanics and all of them are brushed over and the secret achievements are listed in guides (often as instructions on how to cheat them) tl;dr people play this game for the wrong reasons, pvp sucks

Unturned is genuinely one of the most fun games for me with its social chaos, and also one of the most played too. Albeit haven't played as much recently and don't know about alot of the current problems. but as others pointed out some of the RP servers are quite problematic currently especially the ones leech off people's money. Absolutely loved some RP servers though the chaos was unmatched. Nelson really needs to bring back the official content updates that added so much stuff with new maps and Unturned's ingame lore should be continued upon as well. It was fun to piece together the story and see people's theories. (Curator maps like Elver and Escelation are great though). The wave of P2W servers, smaller and sometimes negative changes suck, but lets keep hoping and even try to keep this gem of a franchise alive.

[@jeanladoire4141]

i have 3500 hours of gameplay on unturned, i fell in love with the 2.0 game in 2014, and i've been playing on and off ever since. It's a kind of free version of rust with zombies pretty much. I'm not very into pvp oddly enough (and the game seems to have shifted towards a full pvp style), but the way you can build on cars and design bases opens lots of doors for fun gameplay

[@REPTILOID1939]

I HATE 3RD PERSON SO MUUUUUCH it is so unbalanced! It is camper gameplay sitting behind the wall and peeking it easy to shoot in 3rd person because you actually can zoom in 3rd person without opening the scope and shooting in 3rd person close range is 100 times easier than fpp, fpp is true survival gameplay. Also I hate non vannila survival servers, like tpa/home/kits/?x more loot because it is mega casual and easy people go and play those trash servers instead of real vannila experience. Also I hate melee pvp and shotguns cuz they are mega OP u can 1 shot full geared player using db. And I hate this game's community, people dont play old good curated maps, they play same maps for all the time, there are so much good maps, but people dont want to play them. I also hate full builded cars which are more like apc or even more armored than them! I also hate 1 sleeping bag idea and how building are getting raided, splash in raiding is very big. If your sleeping bag gets destroyed and u die 1 time u just spawn on spawn and u can do nothing from this moment.

sounds great always wanted to play polaris will check it out for sure

[@Feich99]

Thank you for making this video amazing. I can confirm that unturned videos are 100% dead on youtube. Same situation happened to me when i switched from unturned to roblox videos.

[@smuff2762]

someone just make a washington full vanilla server and we all play on it

[@markomaster5429]

It was my most played game for many years which was only recently passed by War Thunder, it's sad to see the players have left but it's hard to expect people to stick around when others are leaving.

[@ravethefox]

Unturned is just too easy imho. I can just go onto servers and easily get the materials I need to raid the majority of the bases on the server (not actually have enough to raid them all but most bases can be raided with the equipment) in a few hours of playing. Getting a full metal base that is well defended is so difficult. The only way to guarantee your base not being raided is to be online when it happens but then they will just gather their supplies and come back when you are offline as they know who you are now. This applies to vanilla as I don't enjoy modded servers. Tldr: too easy to get raiding supplies and too difficult to make a strong base

[@beans7675]

you literally made me open steam and reinstal the game while watching

[@user_unbound]

i was 9 years old, i watched my favorite youtuber play this game and invited viewers to download and make a big group. I discover steam and download my first ever pc game on a potato pc. History was made 10 years ago.

[@yeehawman_69]

5k hour player here, the game has a huge amount of core problems and nelson doesn't want to work on the game anymore, but he still wants to make money from it

[@mutantstandard348]

main issue are community commucation, there's quite a lots of good project/mod didn't get a good way to being noticed. plus the main game has content support issue(kinda) so things are not going totally ok sofar

[@mutantstandard348]

but again, nelson tried to makes some features for creators. and some a bit of game tweak. if he didn't turns back in 2019 the this game gonna died earlier than today

[@DOSEDKID]

Legendary video for a legendary game from a legend of a developer

[@Unlucky1776]

Did you know there was actually also a single developer porting it to android for a couple months? He got it running on super low end hardware too. sadly he got sent a cease and desist and had to stop working on it.

[@soggygum]

I used to dream that one day i will play this game again with my friends and cousins without worrying my fps to drop while the graphics are set on high res. This dream was set back in 2015, and still hoping for it.

[@dylanyea4910]

Man I always try to get one but sadly I don't have PC

[@HeisenGeck]

I stream this game quite often but I do agree with you the amount of degenerates playing this game sickens me. This is not the Unturned I played when I was young. Not to mention a bunch of creators often kill the servers that are around. Content Creators imo should be aware of how trolling a server or publishing content that is bringing an audience that encourages trolling can kill a server that isn't toxic or does not encourage that behavior. I also notice that server owners are quick to give up on a project instead of working with the project and trying to work with it to keep it going.

[@BirikinPrimary]

As a 6900 hour player,i'd say you aren't wrong

[@ThinkerDudz]

I liked Unturned alot but the game wasn't welcoming enough. there were 8 player gangs just ruining the server, one time one of them got betrayed and we helped him out, took em down but then i got bored.

[@nxrbix]

definetly one of the most fun parts of unturned is the modding community, all of the mods are so well made ( well most of them ) and actually fun, servers can litteraly do anything with the plugins and mods

[@kushiva7651]

Loved unturned with my friends, absolutely amazing and fun game - but what we were not happy about were the servers and the fact that most of them weren't reliable for us (one day they were, another day they were gone), or that they reset like every night and we were more about collecting and building base stuff

[@wolhaiksong2558]

I remember playing this with an old ass PC (4GB RAM DDR3) back in 2018 for some months,then it got so unoptimized that i couldn't even open it.

[@HighSpeedgg]

Played over 1600 hours in unturned and hosted a wide variety of semi vanilla servers, played it for years back in the day and also made content under the name "Alpha-1" but I haven't actually played unturned in years now, I don't even have it installed.. I'm sad to hear its dying. this game was a huge piece of my childhood arguably a bigger piece then Minecraft ever was

[@aliveinyourmind]

here before ur famous!

[@frazzle6713]

I used to play this game so much during lockdown, I played it a bit last year and tbh, the most fun I had in the game was just making servers with friends, no PVP, just fun, we would hop on Russia and build giant base complexs, i think my most memorable times were playing with a group of friends on the Altis RP map and making up our own little stories. I cant bring myself to return to unturned because it just feels too different to the game it once was

[@Dontmindmeisnotoriginal]

I started playing Unturned again a few days ago because of Buak, which add enough content to make it a unique experience, but as a PvE player who plays with friends on private servers, it might be the last time I play it, because the game is just dead. There is nothing new except random fixes. Even Buak - which I feel is a more PvE oriented map - is way too easy (I died like once, and it's because I ate explosive candies), food isn't a threat, water isn't a threat, zombies are even less of a threat and even mega are easy to deal with because zombies can't leave an area since 3.0. The game has a lots of issues since 3.0/its release that won't ever get fixed (the terrible inventory system which is just confusing with big inventories since you can't sort it, the crafting interface that gets cluttered a lot when you play with mods and the search feature is pretty much useless, and the vehicles physics - especially they have 2 wheels). I've also seen some people criticize its optimisation, but I've had no problem with it (my integrated gpu is around a GTX 1050 Ti / GTX 1060, which is quite old and with almost everything ultra it's not quite 60 fps but it still feels smooth). But for PvE, you're better off playing Project Zomboid (which may not be free but it's really worth it, even though it as its flaws it has better gameplay and mods)

[@surgey8919]

try editing the configs to make it harder if you find it too easy

[@Dontmindmeisnotoriginal]

@@surgey8919 the problem is that, yeah I can make it harder, but making a game harder just by cranking up some values (like zombie health for example) doesn't actually make it more fun because there's no extra gameplay depth to go with the enhanced difficulty. It also doesn't change the fact that the area zombies can move in is quite restricted, which makes the game much easier, and editing the config can't help with that.

[@jessepinkman1471]

This game was my childhood, and it pains me to see it be neglected so much. As of writing this, I have 2,122.7 hours on my main account and 794.7 hours on my alt.

[@Nicky654a]

I can say first hand that rp servers that I played give or take like 4 years ago were so horrendously boring/cringe I got banned from a server for WALKING ON A MODS LAWN not even like a joke ban for like 30 minutes it was perm non appealable this games community is and was infested quickly with annoying children

[@arena_breakingmywilltolive]

As someone who found out unturned is on Xbox and someone who watches nylexs unturned life rp basically religiously at this point I'm getting an Xbox series X in about 3 weeks I'm excited to try out unturned for the first time ever

[@renanhortencio8686]

This game used to be fun, hoped after the launch a few years ago that there were new stuff. Turns out it barely changed at all. I still have a fond memory of discovering the giant mutant titan and shitting myself after it chased me

[@k0lliak553]

I've been playing Unturned since ~2015 and have ~500 hours in it. Well, let's just say that the game has lots of problems. First of all, the only part that's kinda good is solo PvE. It has its caveats, but we'll dive into it later. If you want to play online, you'll mostly get RP servers which have almost none to all PvE / PvP aspects. There's also PvP servers too... but they're mostly plagued with kits so you'll have lots of stuff quickly, which makes the game boring. You just can't find a good vanilla server that will have more than 5 players. And even if you find it, there's no gurantee that it wouldn't have a bunch of tryhards that constantly remove the competition. The second problem is solo replayability. You can get lots of good stuff in a hour or two - and then all the game has to offer is you working as a loot goblin. You build a small base and then stash supplies. That's it. There's no random events. There's no traveling zombie hordes. There's no bandits that will raid your base. All you have is zombies that are restricted to their respective locations. There are also animals which actually can fight you and roam around, but they're so rare (and aren't even present on most maps!) which makes them irrelevant. Third is the amount of vanilla content. It's almost nonexistant. The main focus right now is curated content (which don't get me wrong, it's actually sick as hell, Arid for example feels like the entirely different game), but it still feels... wrong. Like if you've downloaded lots of Minecraft mods; sure, it IS Minecraft, but it feels a bit weird now and then.

[@gungaming4735]

I remember my golden years in unturned late nights with friends living the life frfr

[@TheHotDogGuy.]

I remember watching a lot of videos on this game. I tried it recently, but i was too casual to know how to play, lol

[@applejuice281]

The game also has an incredibly easy to learn level editor

[@RapidReelsytb]

It's actually so sad i just heard this video talk about unturned i'm installing that thing... woaw thank you even if its for a moment i want to play something ^^

[@mcdodge6679]

Ive absolutely loved playing this game and wayyy too many hours put into it. In my opinion one of the biggest issues was there is a lack of spreading of information how to use various tools for the games code when map making, as well as a huge lack of development regarding the pve and zombies. Now the game is almost entirely just full pvp servers

[@ppgurl420]

I played the 1.0 version and it was rough. im glad to see that the games still being updated

[@Shadow-Melon]

if youre starting unturned and dont want to make massive time commitments, i recommend a6 polaris, it's relatively fast paces without sacrificing lore, or the overall playstyle and in my opinion, even expands on it with an in-depth quest line and a very well done dead zone.

[@Goldman_2]

First started to play Unturned (around the 2:05 mark) when the only map was PEI, and there was no automatic weapons in the game. I personally stopped playing around the time that Russia got released, and it was mostly because there was no more story to the game. Locations were interesting but i didn't feel like I was discovering anything new. I didn't play often enough to keep a base on multiplayer alive, and on singleplayer once I got a weapon id never die, especially once I had a gun. Just lost any kind of interest from me, no real challenge, nothing to search for except more loot to horde.

[@Hushey]

oh my god thank you so much for saying this. TPA, HOME, KITS, 100X loot rubbish ruins the game

[@Enoiye]

i use to play this game on an old hp laptop. it made me get a job in high school so I could afford to build a budget PC back in 2016. would've been a good game if they kept updates coming

[@eflex8543]

10x loot and enough people on a Server can make your day more than commiting tax fraud for the first time.

[@Milktasus]

Epic video brother🥐🥐

[@rheivenjunoblianda6989]

There's still a decent playerbase that still active though. Sure it wasn't like the previous years, but there's more than enough vanilla servers still active

[@AMX_12t_God]

Unturned gameplay: Spawn in, loot, die from a player out of nowhere, respawn. Loot, build a base, log off for a few hours, log back on into your raided base, repeat

[@Midwestemoisme]

i put 300 hours into that game without even realizing it back in the day, servers were always dead tho near the end

[@goodlifer_exe]

In my opinion, its because there arent any good servers anymore (most of them are ultra modded russian only servers) and 2 rediculous game mechanics.1. the mechanic where when you leave the server ur body with all your loot disappears and 2. THE GOD DAMN BED SYSTEM, I cant even count anymore how many times Ive had to restart a skybase build because of me accidentally unclaiming a bed.

[@mazobojo]

Donor kits and gold accounts just logging with all the loot mixed with the 3rd person tactics in a short time to kill environment make it undesirable to do anything but play pvp. A base building game with little incentive to build means no one wants to stay besides on rp servers. I love unturned and the possibilities it presents but it’s just a shooter with botted player counts now.
