7 days to die, 100 days, journey, zombies, survival, syzen, episodes, playthrough, lets play
So should we do Darkness Falls? 😮 Word on the street syzen to chicken of zombies.
Yes
man everything you did here is child play compared to DF, not sure if you ready😂
Yea
@@alexosky4477 I believe they borked it.
DF is good. I vote for Rebirth tho.
25:41 Not sure if anyone's answered this, but the door keys normally unlock the nearby door for a quick way out of the area after you grab the main loot. Most quest areas in 7D2D are dungeon-style, guiding the player through the area with signs. Is the path destroyed or locked? That might not be the right way. Is there a lantern or torch on the ground? Try investigating the area. You might even have to parkour or break through curtains and boarded doorways to advance further. You shouldn't feel pressed to loot the area completely, but investigating thoroughly doesn't hurt... unless you're underprepared for nighttime, that is.
Yeah it's important for all players to know that each area in the game has a path in it. So you don't have to break doors down like they were trying to do at the start, you can get into the area and through all of it.
Oh thanks
Oh nice thanks
@@michaelg.2515 Right ok
aw nice thanks
Man, watching you guys do everything at night and never mine for resources was driving me nuts.
"Never gonna farm for anything, that shit sucks." *gets auger* "Holy shit mining's great!" *actually puts points into mining* I was fucking cackling at that point.
Yeah a few things had me screaming at the screen. I'm such a paranoid gamer I hide all night and spend at least a couple of hours a day mining.
@@keirsmale8045 You should mine at night, just dig down like its minecraft and put a mine shaft in your basement.
I generally try to find a gas station with an underground bunker for my main base. Then I dig a tunnel from my main base to my day 7 base. That way at night I can mine safely
Don't mine at night. I know you're looking at that cave. And you're feeling kinda brave. Go to bed and you'll be alright.
kept my attention for a whole 3 hours. You guys are incredibly entertaining and you are very good at editing
Thank you so much! Im glad to hear it. This was one of my most fun projects to date no doubt
@@isyzen man it was a really fun video so thx for making it!
When you play 7 days you can also make AP and HP ammo it's better than regular one @@isyzen
for anyone who didn't understand why the horde night at 2:02:06 decided to break the walls, because zombies Ai first try to walk on the same altitude as you're then walk toward you in the shortest way possible, since there isn't a way to get to you, they do two things, destroy everything under you, or make a way to you, so they started destroying that wall to make a clear path to get to Syzen. also to fix what happened to james , just leave the server and get back in xD no need to troll your friend lol
Thx I was fr confused 😅😊
In short always make a clear path to you as syzen broke the floor they found a path behind the wall.
Every single second of this video was just entertaining. Couldn't bear to skip any moments. This has truly been the adventure of a lifetime .Thank you for the amazing 3 hour video.
Im so happy you enjoyed it! Thanks for the support Jade, you're awesome!
Noice
Why does it say translate to English on noice
Right
Aw but I can't like cuz it's exactly 333 likes ;( ;)
Every once in a while someone like you appears, and I gotta say you're really good, I was waiting for the episodes the whole time, keep it up
That means a lot my friend. Ill continue to pump out videos with the best quality possible! I appreciate you
@@isyzen bro can you do more dayz also the hoard nights are called blood moons thats why everything goes red
@@isyzen love you homie
@@CRABWIZRD 99 ➰ 😆 lo9 ppl love lo9 lol
@isyzen bro on the Xbox version they haven't updated it for years and I'm just now finding out what everything looks like. I definitely need to get PC version
Long time 7D2D player here, it's cringe to watch new players because you want to scream at the screen but watching new people discover how deep that game goes is rad. Most people are put off by the graphics (game is fugly, no denying that) but this game is so good (and probably won't be as good in the next alpha). Thanks for the ride.
2:53:54 to 2:54:30 has to be one of the most insane CLUTCH I've ever seen in all my 7DTD years. That shit was Legit! 🗿🥃🔥
I just noticed he was able to jump over them, this is why everyone should spend on Parkour Skill. Parkour is such a game changer in 7DTD that's the only reason he was able to escape from there 10/10
This seems like such a bot comment 😂
how?@@jkaeye4768
Entering the church the hard way is really funny. They could have found the destroyed wall the first few minutes but the zombie jumpscare at the back terrified him so much they didn't check the other side of the church.
Casual 7dtd player here watching y’all learn the game was awesome, wholesome, and hilarious I choked on my food when you said “I thought the hammer had a heavy attack” 😂😂😂
41:40 the reason the zeds didn't go for your door rather than the sides is because the zeds aren't blind to the spikes like it's Orcs Must Die. They have certain "terrain" costs to take different routes. Putting down all those spikes make your front door more "expensive" to go through (because they would run into the spikes) so they went for the "cheaper" walls.
So it was smarter, what he did next (path narrowed by spikes)?
From my experience the horde doesn't take into account the spikes much
@kartikeyatiwari2502 it takes into account the cost in HP of any blocks to get to you, so if you create two narrow paths for them to walk down and place spikes on one path, Wood spikes cost 500 each in hp if you have 10 that's 5k hp, then on the second path place a steel door with 10k hp they will always take the spikes, now if you place a steel door on the first path your total hp to reach you is 15k so they will go down the second path to reach you because its cheaper so the majority will head down that path radom ones will still go the first path and as it reduces in hp more will join in. The Zs calculate distance x cost so if you had a long corridor with five steel doors to reach you and only 4 concrete blocks holding your platform up they would destroy the platform pillar to get to you because its cheaper to do that. And this is me simplifying it too its a whole thing and hard to explain 😅 like if you knock them off a ledge and your with in 11 blocks of them they go into destroy all mode for a short time if your 12 blocks away they don't as I said their's alot too it, its crazy
@@TRNHardy from my experience it is not true. I cover my base with layers of iron spikes and when the horde gets through 3 layers of one part I just move to a different path and the entire horde moves parallel to me even though the new spot has all layers of spikes intact. If they were doing what u are saying, they would have funneled into the 3 broken spike layer regardless of where I am moving
@kartikeyatiwari2502 Because to reach you they would need to break a bunch of walls right? So instead they'd break spikes and only the wall your standing on
Even though this is 3 hours long it still feels fast paced and that's amazing to me
True
Dam I got 100 likes on this comment
thank for you two so much ! it has been so fun watching you two playing. as a veteran to the game, it is just so much fun to feel the first excitment all over again trough someone else 👌👍 to the next adventure ! also 3:26:56 had me cracked seriously 🤣
Thanks so much! It was a blast to experience this from scratch and i gotta say it was one of my favorite playthroughs :)
@@isyzen that key mechanic is weird it unlocks a door or gate.
It's fun to see you guys took the same steps I did when I played, starting off afraid of everything, and ending building an almost unraidable base with a nice build and lots of damage
Its just awesome to see new people discovering 7dtd. I have over 6200 hrs in this game and never get tired of it. There is alot more to discover, there are alot of awesome 7dtd mods out there to change things up Welcome to the 7DTD community.
You can get forged iron from scrapping broken workbenches, sawmills, chemistry stations. Stuff like that. If you really need some quick iron or cement, don’t forget the cement and rock bags you can find in most buildings. The ruined biome gives you stone and sand from mining the ground, you’ll know you’re there because the ground looks like bricks and rocks! Basically like ruined buildings. The biome also has iron scraps all over the place that look like rebar. Those scraps are decent way to get some quick iron. Hope this helps!
I currently have 3,769 hours on 7DTD and this is one of the most bat shit crazy hilarious playthroughs I've ever seen!! You earned yourself a sub and an automatic like/comment on every video i watch from here on! 😁😍😂😍
Dude...that's too much lol
1,600 hours here I have to agree with you, really good video made me wish I could play it for the first time again…😊
I played this game for 2,100 hours
@jonsnow2555 games been out for 13 years it's reasonable
@@Dekudicklickeryet it's still in alpha? Lmao
Watching the two of you play this game for the first time was amazing. It was so funny to watch you go in blind, which I think is the best way to play the game now that you've shown me the way. I usually look up everything before I play, but its kinda awesome watching you struggle and then become better.
This is 100% relatable. The first few days were hard to watch especially since I have way too many hours in game. Great job and this game is awesome with friends. Keep up the vids, earned a sub from me.
The narration throughout was very well done. Made it feel more engaging. I figured I'd end up watching this in chunks and I've been glued to my screen for a little over 2 hours now.
This is honestly my favorite game and I love finding new people to watch play it. You guys really had me screaming at first but as a first play through its totally understandable. You guys got the hang of it and I hope you decide to play Darkness Falls. I wish I had a friend that would actually play this game with me 😭
First episode of us playing Darkness Falls in on my channel boss
the first game of 7dtd is the best one :) i personally know so many exploits, that its no challenge for me anymore :D still would 100% recommend this game.
2:26:00 yelling at the video to use the medkits in your toolbar!!! Hahahaha loving this video!!!!
I loved everything about this video , your commentary, your friend, the random heart attack moments, the soundtracks. Great video!
i actually never watched 7 days to die or anything related to it , but i watched you and i watched every episode , best wishes for you
One of the best games you can buy
Don’t play it if youre on console. It’s too buggy
@@trilla3282 console 7DTD is probably the worst game i've ever played. i genuinely cannot understate how awful it is
@@crunchy1120it finally gets an update soon for next gen only. Looks so much better
You have inspired me to start playing and this by far has been the best series I have ever seen on youtube. Can you please in the future do maybe 200 days or just keep playing?(Btw you and ImTheJames have such an amazing friendship)
No 200 days explained before They will do darkness falls though
You should really watch glock 9
Gonna be honest, after 100 days, there's not a lot of game left in the game. You probably wanna start over around day 100, and take different skill trees for a different play-through experience. 2x100days or 3x70days playthroughs are gonna be more fun than 1x200days. The game is 66.7% more fun with 2 people btw ;) And if different perk trees isn't enough, there's also a wide range of difficulty & game settings options to tinker with. After you've exhausted the playstyles in vanilla though, there's always mods like Darkness Falls or Undead Legacy.
I'm liking at the start of the video for the sheer length and time commitment to a single video I love that it seems like it'll be edited as well as long format, a great thing to see
i respect not looking up too much and just figuring things out as you go. even tue the first few weeks were kinda rough they were more then amazing to watch. loved every minute of this video
bro i started watching this at 1am and stayed up till the end mad respect
You are appreciated lol! That takes some loyalty XD Thanks bud
Same man lol. Its 4:10 am and gotta wake up in 5 hours to go to work but it worth the time:D
I started at 2 am. LOL!
I am amazed that you played 14 ingame days and you did not fdigure out that you are not playing in party together to share the XP that you get from killing. It was very amusing to watch you struggle with the base and the hordes for sure ! Awesome video and it was entertaining.
I want to say, that this video alone has sparked my interest in 7DTD again, and being sick the last few days you have provided me immense entertainment.
I just love watching very long form content of this game, it is just so relaxing
My best noob base in 7days was a cabin surrounded by a series of ditches filled with spikes, each topped with barbed wire, added a catwalk, small wall, and an emergency pit bunker... this was before I knew they could dig.
I literally cannot get over this dude's character. Looks like a charred masterpiece. Never seen that before. Had me chuckling everytime he came into view
XD it cracked me up. Probably one of the highlights for me in this playthrough
@@isyzenI was dying of laughter your friend was charcoal colored
Great video guys👍 watching this, I went through all kinds of emotions. Love this game and your content ❤ greetings from Germany
This entire video, what an AMAZING edit it was! The pace, your narrating, the music, the content itself. It was all so fluid. And I am that person that if i can see the edited version or the raw footage i choose the raw, but this was so easy to stay engaged!
Man I watched the whole thing without falling asleep and the whole run was interesting, you sir have earned a subscriber.
I fell asleep a couple times. Ngl
Please do another 7D2D video. This was so much fun to watch. You guys are funny as hell. A lot of epic moments in this 3 hours. It was worth it to watch. I hope for another video. 🔥
Bro... You're so precious. Your enjoyment of the game is so refreshing and genuine, that you can't help but also be hype for what's happening. You have a talent to be able to spread such positive vibes. It's this gleeful, almost kidlike way of just enjoying what you're doing. Thank you for making my day.
I watch many 7DTD streamers, this was fun and entertaining! Definitely earned a sub here! Keep it up!
ive grown up with seven days to die seeing a video of someone playing it after forgetting abt it after a while was nice :)
You beautiful man! A supercut! You spoil us Syzen!
Thanks haha! Yeah the final 10 days are in this as well
@@isyzen the door issue for the base can some what be solved by using more then one weaker door or keeping all but one or two doors open and when they brake the outer most door just shut another door in the line.
this is so fun to watch😂 the vibe between you two is amazing!
i have watched this 5 times for many hours of enjoyment seeing you guys develop from zero to hero makes for a good story
“When are we gonna have a break through” immediately breaks through the floor
Was just about to comment that lol
I didn't come here to talk bad about your starting gameplay but to say, you did very well even for a guy playing it for the first time, we were all in the boat where we didn't know what to do but you guys kept going which is all that matters, i would happily spend another full video watching this again if you made another episode. The new alpha 21 is a must try it really makes the survival part even harder and much more fun. More animals roaming around to hunt instead of always having zombies to fight
This was the most entertaining 3 hours I have ever watched. Amazing video!
That was sick!!! I enjoyed every quests and horde night you did!!! You guys Rock! 😆🤟
GG Syzen and mellow, you both have come such a loooong way!
Thanks fam!
You missed out on doing true co-op at several stages, where you level up around 90% faster. When you play together you can invite other players to your party. Not only does it help you locate eachother, but you also share XP between you on zombie kills. Also, setting up a dedicated server might help when it comes to framerates, especially on Bloodmoon nights and in tier 5 areas
They do share xp tho
@@driftbosfallout not as often i think though that james was absent for a great deal of the series so what we're seeing is him talking to himself and/or us viewers
playing recording an editing a 200 day gameplay is just amazing, shout out to you for sharing this amazing work
It's crazy! I'm now on day 580+ (I mean server was on day 490 when I joined so not that long) I just got my first Turret in my underground base, and I've been waiting to finish work to jump back in...then I stumble onto your video...Now I can't get back to my own game, cause yours is so much fun to watch! Watching you grow from Noobs to Pros gives me so much Remote Pride!
James is a fucking legend. Hes always protecting you, and giving you money for the AK... What a pal.
He was a great person to play with! I agree
@@isyzen I'm looking forward to future plays!
Loved this series
Thanks Smart. I appreciate you homie
Me to
good video! enjoyed the banter between you two, although the gameplay was hard to watch at first. It's always nice to see people learn a game and start to enjoy it more and more
What a WONDERFULLL CONCENTTT. OMGGGG. I JUST watched the whole thing mannn. Crazyyy
30:40 The literal definition of, “The Power of Frienship and this gun I found”
I'm at the day 41 mark right after he cleared the skyscraper for his mission. And it is just so damn aggravating how I'm still less than halfway through the whole video and I've seen him pass up ammo crafting supplies just about a million times so far
So myself and 3 of my buddies have well over 800 hours of game time each at this point, and we have the early game down so efficiently that we basically have a fully crafted base made of cobblestone, electricity, guns, ammo production, and everything we need by the first blood moon. We only know what we know because we suffered through like the two of you did in this video. Definitely entertaining to see two new people to the game try to figure it out. Also, trader quests are borderline broken with the rewards at the higher tiers. You get to loot for the quest as well as the reward and xp from completing it. We also use our main base as our horde base, we just design it very specifically with that in mind. Making two completely separate bases was always tricky for us, so we figured having just one base is the way to go and we make it work pretty well in all honesty
The amount of joy I experienced while watching 3 hours of you two fumble your way into becoming somewhat competent survivors is indescribable. Hopefully this game hasn't discouraged you (or your friend) from doing another 7DTD series. Yes, this game does have loot tier tables. So the higher your levels are, the higher the grade loot. So if want to quickly increasing your player levels to find more higher grade weapons I suggest: - Building a base and upgrading the building blocks - Mining or digging for materials - Scrapping - Doing quests such as clearing all zombies or fetching the courier satchel Items that can be scrapped for forged iron: - Workbenches - Chem stations - Cement mixers - Table saw - Workout weights - Broken vending machines (DON'T SCRAP WORKING VENDING MACHINES) - Street lamps - Transformers (they can be found at the top of electrical poles) - Gas pumps - Wall safes - Gun safes - Military crates - ATM machines (Which will also give you a decent amount of cash to use at the Traders :D ) Scrap low tier weapons; Their parts will sell for way more then the weapon itself. Also you don't need lockpicks to open a crate or safe. If you got the time (and you're desperate for W grade loot), you can break it open using: - a pickax - a sledge hammer - a shotgun or .44 magnum (but only if you got the ammunition to spare lol) - an auger
That key that you”picked up” opened the door you broke down lol
he said he has a blessed metal mod but its only obtainable in creative wtf man 3:24:05
I didnt know that lmao.... woooooooooooow
@@isyzen yeah man i think it was obtainable in older versions when mods were first added but now you can only get it from creative unless you have mods
3 hours of enjoyment i learned a trick or 2 keep up the good work man love your videos
Watched the whole thing, amazing send off at the end for 100 days :) great stuff 👍
Finally some content about 7 Days, I've been looking for videos like this.
Great video. I liked every second of it. James looks like a great guy to play with.
Thank you for uploading this. This is a superb, funny, terrifying video in a game I love. I haven't finished your video yet, I am just past day 84. I nearly gave up with my game, I died so many times and I am now in a comfortable position with food, water and weapons. I like how you make it clear that to succeed, you need a combination of good weapons, base knowledge and skill, not just by "gitting gud". I look forward to the end. James getting burnt....sorry, I laughed out loud at that...😂
Beautifully played, it was awesome seeing you grow into unstoppable machines. Thank you for your time!
This is crazy and satisfaction is huge thx for this 👍🔥🙂😤
its really refreshing and entertaining seeing you two survive and make your way to the top! and dont worry about the trader and other stuff, back in previous versions they were so rare to find and money was really difficult to obtain without selling lots of stuff, some ppl play the new version without paying attention or interacting with traders but they are absolutely a game changer , it took me 9 playthroughs for me to survive a single week without dying and back then i used to just huddle up in horror at night cuz i was too scared to go outside, and i still to this day dont know much about the game, just enjoying surviving
also dont worry about being underleveled and underequipped the game actually scales to that giving you easier outcome to it also as a compliment you've a HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE base bigger than everything i ever attempted xD, i baught the game 7 years ago and few months ago i realized you can change the blocks shape, and that some of them are shoot through .
sorry for the many replies to my post i tend to comment while watching, but i wish you two figured out how to share quests, that way you both can do both your quests at the same time and recieve more exp and money overall and more quests rewards!
Only halfway through so I imagine you improved your wiring afterwards cause you wiring those blades got me, but for your guys real first long run through the game you guys did excellent and we're entertaining the whole way so far, good team in many ways lol, nicely done guys
its astonishing how much the game has changed since i was splitscreening this on the 360 with my cousin back in like 2016 might have to reinstall this and dink around if i get tired of the ARK grind (trying to ascend for the first time ever)
This was so much fun to watch... I wanted to scream when you were doing traps but you nailed it later on. GG!!
I came back after watching to comment that 3:14:00 to 3:14:25 is my favorite part of this for its comedic reasons. The song playing and the steady, slooow pace of “swimming” through the water is just a perfect match.
A well-done playthrough! Nice narration, kept things light and interesting, even for a supercut, didn't feel too long.
Kept my attention for 3 hours, 36 minutes, and 52 seconds. 10/10 do recommend
It's nice to see some people starting this from scratch, has been a while when I was there. Nice video 😅
I love watching people play this game for the first time. classic.
This video was awesome!! I watched ALL of it. You guys are so FUN! My new fav KZhead channel!
Thanks for the kind words! Also i've tried running sons of the forest and its just unfortunately not my kind of game. Maybe with friends would make it fun though
This is a masterful video, perfect in all ways, and taught my mediocre ass that console and PC is wayyyyy different
literally the best 7 days to die video out there, great work man
This is an amazing game! I have seen people play it for only 9 days so I am amazed!
Man James remind me of my friend I always play with. I really enjoyed this video and y’all’s interactions
I haven't even watched half the video and I'm hooked we need more KZheadrs like yall keep up the good work
That means a lot i appreciate it! I loved making this video
@@isyzen it would be cool if yall did modded 7 days lol
This video is very entertaining and the fact that they are mowing down zombies while rave music is playing is great just great
The key automatically unlocks the door that it is next to, making it easy to leave and come back without needing to bust down a fortified door. It's like a button, you click it and it's done, not a physical item :) hope this helps
Here i was thinking man i sure would like to watch a zombie movie and boom i stumble into this. Thank you for the video!
Dude! You two are so funny! 😂 Subscribed!
Me and my brother once held out in a shooting range during a horde. It is really fun to play vietnam music and mow down zombies with an m60. Just hearing "sympathy for the devil" while fighing an army's worth of the dead was such a cool moment. The battleground after was so destroyed we couldnt use the place anymore. Such a cool game
Btw you can get a lot of the ores and materials you need by mining and digging in the dirt, u can find large iron deposits and other deposits. There is also a whole skill tree for it to help increase the amount of ore you get per hit and how fast you dig.
As a seasoned player of this game, Watching the early days was both infuriating and also very entertaining. Just knowing “he doesn’t know about this and should do this” was semi annoying but reminded me of my first time playing during the more simple days. 10/10 video
Just watched the whole thing from start to finish.. lol. Even got 96-97 construction in OSRS! Haha Subbed brotha!
Loot stage goes up as you level up and as each day passes. The difficulty setting also affects how quickly it increases. Higher loot stage means better loot but it also means harder zombies. A bit of a two-edged sword if you're not prepared.
Im really happy with u making it more harder at the end❤
Its fun watching someone play 7dtd for the first time knowing that this game is SO complex and enjoying all the fumbles a new player comes across.. after 4k hrs in this game tho most things are known and easily overcome.. current Darkness Falls game -DAY 64 and 0 deaths.. easssy
Keys in key boxes and key racks are there to open locked doors, and switches do the same but they can also be linked to garage doors too
im like 10 minutes in and im crying laughing at how much of a noob yall are its adorable. im happy you guys didnt give up on this game. its glorious. yeh it has a LOT of glitches BUUUTTT its so fun.
I love how you guys play, learning as you go. Thats so much fun, I have always liked to do that, it is so much more fun.
Love the standard auger reaction to mining - I literally can't mine without it after knowing what it's like. It's almost as strong but opposite the reaction to swimming- water is jello lmao. Biggest protip you hadn't discovered (short of maybe.. crafting AP ammo for horde nights to punchthrough the corridor, or putting storage mods on the drone for a big backpack) is pressing R to loot everything in a container - im sure inventory space is a limiting factor but you should just scrap a lot of what you aren't selling off. Just extra free brass, iron, electricalmechanical parts, etc on your enroute through POIs. Personally besides unlocking tiers I stuck to tiers that actually have buried supplies/fetch for the speed tradeoff- less ammo waste for more ammo rewards and more quests. If ya'll do darkness falls I prefer it endlessly for the good things in/around alpha 16- action skills (learn by doing), combining to increase quality, as well as streamlining early and endgame for a much better feel to progression imho that doesn't leave "getting guns = easy mode unlocked" in and of itself, and giving a reason to scrap books into skill notes (for class progression reasons) so they aren't completely useless post learning. The QoL of more inventory (and more inventory in Lockable storage, and more crafting space, and being able to box up your full ammo stacks, etc etc...) is also very strong in it, the one thing people tend not to like is the lack of onscreen time of day without crafting a watch/referring to a vending machine/trader.
Just watched the whole thing. What a story man, that was awesome.
