Server Wipe - Season 27th: Operation Safe Passage

Hello Survivors!

We are thrilled to announce an exciting new quest for our Project Zomboid community: Operation Safe Passage. This unique challenge is designed to test your problem-solving skills, teamwork, and strategic planning. To aid in your mission, remember that VOIP is enabled with a distance of 100,000, allowing for effective communication and coordination. Additionally, players who demonstrated exceptional game skills and/or activity during the past months earned the prestigious "Zomboid Veteran" role, highlighting your contributions and achievements within the community. Those players might play a crucial role in the quest. Get ready for an adventure like no other!

Quest Overview:

In this quest, players will embark on a mission to discover and escort a wounded Lieutenant to safety. But there's a twist! The journey begins with a mystery that only the most resourceful survivors can unravel.

How It Works:

Uncover the Clues: At the start of the wipe, you'll find notes scattered across the map. These notes contain hidden messages. Work together with your fellow survivors to decipher these clues and uncover the location of the starting point.
Discover the Starting Point: Once all clues are deciphered and combined, they will lead you to the secret starting location, where the wounded Lieutenant awaits your help.
Solve the Riddle: Upon meeting the Lieutenant, you'll receive a text riddle. Solve it to reveal the final destination.
Escort the Lieutenant: Your mission is to safely escort the Lieutenant to the destination. Along the way, you'll face zombie hordes, environmental challenges, and limited resources. Teamwork and strategy will be key to your success.
Secure the Area: Upon arrival, secure the area and ensure the Lieutenant's safety to complete the mission.

Join the Adventure:

This quest promises to be a thrilling and immersive experience, bringing our community together in a shared challenge. Whether you're a seasoned survivor or new to the game, Operation Safe Passage offers something for everyone.

Stay safe and happy surviving!

So, things are back on track, finally. There will be a couple differences next wipe, some more important than others. Please take your time and read what I have to say. If you have any questions or want to discuss the changes, feel free to do so in ⁠#pz-general.

Spawn Regions

The spawn regions will be unchanged compared to last wipe. As such, you will once more see "Randomized Small Towns of Kentucky" (This setting provides a pool of 8 areas where you might spawn: Muldraugh, West Point, Riverside, Rosewood, March Ridge, Dixie, Fallas Lake, or Doe Valley) and the Community Center (This special spawn region consists of a single building located between West Point and Muldraugh. It’s designed primarily for new players or those new to the community. While it won't be abundant in loot, anyone is welcome to explore it.) This location will be monitored, periodically reset, and those found griefing will be punished.

Starter Kit

Our tradition of having a different starter kit every wipe, is still going strong. As usual, the contents of the starter kit is a secret until you good people need to use it to survive. However, this time, I will be giving you a hint as to what to expect from this starter kit. Put yourselves in the shoes of a hunter for a bit...

No Louisville Blockade!

The entire map will be available for you starting from, well, the very start of this season. You can rush into Louisville to your hearts content, but be careful, the remnants of the military and whatever is left of the civilians still roam the streets of Louisville at the start. Players may perform PvP or otherwise hostile actions ONLY against characters with the red "ADMIN" title before their name...

Loot Setting Changes

To make the game less easy for you guys, and to make sure it doesn't get as stale quite as fast, loot respawn settings will get a slight rebalance. Rarities will remain unchanged, however loot respawn hours and amounts will get changed.

In Game Voice Chat

We have decided to give the in game voice chat a trial run this wipe, VOIP will be enabled from the beginning of the season. I hope you guys enjoy, but please behave civil, at least if you want to give VOIP a fighting chance at staying with us for the future. However, with this comes a reminder. Always record your gameplay. Not only does it make things easier for us when helping you with something, it's also the best way for you to report someone misbehaving. As always you are free to speak however you want in private, but keep in mind the main language here is English, and be respectful with others.

There will be a handful of changes coming this wipe, so please make sure to read the announcement.

If you have any questions, or would just like to discuss the changes, feel free to do so in: ⁠#pz-general.

1: Spawn Regions

The spawn locations you are already familiar with from the base game, will be staying. However for those that are adventurous, we will be keeping the "Randomized Location" option, however renamed. We will also be adding, for those that really like a challenge, or just want to try their luck, an expanded version of the Randomized Location spawn option.

The custom Spawn Regions you can choose to pick will be as follows:

Randomized Small Towns of Kentucky: This is what you are already familiar with, giving you a pool of 8 areas you might spawn in. Muldraugh, West Point, Riverside, Rosewood, March Ridge, Dixie, Fallas lake, or Doe Valley.
Randomized Houses of Kentucky: The new option coming to our roster this Season. This can spawn you in Residential buildings, all across Kentucky. Yes, this means you might spawn in high risk areas, with high reward, like Louiseville, or perhaps you spawn in safety, but out in the middle of nowhere, where it will take you time to get things rolling.

2: Starter Kits

In the past Seasons, we have had some new starter kits, to freshen things up, and give even the most hardened veterans something new and unexpected to start the Season with. Season 20 will be no different. You can say goodbye to the starter spear that has surely made space for itself in your hearts. Then, again, what exactly are you starting with? well it wouldn't exactly be a surprise if we told you, but surely, you will be able to work with what you start with.

3: Vehicles

Vehicles will be much more abundant, but found in a worse condition, and with less gasoline. Rare vehicle types will be more common, but you will need to work harder to get cars into squeaky clean conditions.

There will be more, smaller events to look forward to, so keep those eyes peeled on the ⁠pz-events channel so you don't lose out on some great gear!

Last Stand!

This Season will go out with a bang, any players online before the server goes offline for the wipe, will be transported to a location where they will have to hold their ground, for as long as they can. Further details will be announced tomorrow.

The server will go down for the wipe process at Friday, May 3, 2024 7:30 PM, unless the participants of the "Last Stand" die out sooner.

There will be a handful of changes coming this wipe, so please make sure to read the #announcement.

If you have any questions, or would just like to discuss the changes, feel free to do so in: #⁠pz-general.

1: Spawn Regions

The spawn locations you are already familiar with from the base game, will be staying. However, for those feeling adventurous, there will be another option added: Randomized location.

With the Randomized Location option, you will not only be drawing from the regular locations, but also four new regions, that some of you might already be familiar with: March Ridge, Dixie, Fallas Lake, and Doe Valley.

2: Starter Kits

In the 18th Season, you all have found your trusted school bags, hammers, and baseball bats being changed to duffel bags, hunting knives, and shovels. In this new season, you will have to say goodbye to the newcomers, you will no longer spawn into the world with the duffel bag kit.

However, this doesn't mean you will be seeing the old, regular starter kit making a comeback just yet. So what will your character have with them, then? Time will tell, how will You adapt?

3: Louiseville Blockade!

What?! Why can't I get through?

Yes, Louiseville will not be accessible for the first week of the wipe. On the second Friday, there will be an event to open the blockade, players will have to spend their time preparing for that eventuality.

Don't waste your time trying, going inside will not be possible, and trying to do so will lead to punishments. If for some reason the game spawns you in Louiseville, please "manually" respawn yourself, or ask for help in: ⁠#pz-help-support.

4: Vehicles, and Loot

Vehicles will be slightly less abundant, and in a slightly worse condition. Rare vehicle types will be more sought after, and you will have to take better care of the running cars that you have.

Loot respawn values will be scaled back. Currently, some players feel loot is too easy to find, and to camp the loot respawns. Items that would regularly be valuable, sit in large piles.

As such, there will be balance changes to make looting more enjoyable for everyone.

There will be more, smaller events to look forward to, so keep those eyes peeled on the # channel so you don't lose out on some great gear!

You can also expect to see the "good old" analog version of the kill leaderboard show up in the ⁠pz-gallery channel, will any server records be beat this month? Hopefully we see some great warriors emerge.

Okay, now that the interesting things are out of the way, there's some more left to think about:

The automatic item cleanup will get some significant changes - You will see a lot more "dropped" items being removed from the world, and sooner.

Please keep this in mind when playing. If it's important, use the "place item" function to protect it from the item cleanup, and try not to throw useful items from POI containers on the floor if you don't need them, someone else might need it!

We will also be slightly decreasing the vehicle speed limit from 110 km/h to 90 km/h to make things feel more fluid.

The server will go down for the wipe process at 5:30pm 8 months ago, anyone still online in the ~hour, hour and a half before that, will see their world come crumbling down... (more info will be coming in ⁠#pz-events soon)
