16:06 - I realize this video is almost a year and a half old now, but one thing you didn't mention, regarding explosives, is that zombie cops take *double* damage from all explosions. It's good info to have if you're somehow short on explosives and want to save them for the few cops that show up on earlier horde nights. Also, timed charges are great for taking out individual cops quickly. Timed charges have a base entity damage of 800, and since they do double damage to cops, *any* cop will get taken out with a timed charge. Kind of a niche use for them, but handy if you need to take out a 1k+ hp radiated cop right away. I don't always remember to say this when I comment, but it's always what I'm thinking - I really appreciate all the videos you create and share. They're very informative, not overly drawn out or wordy, and generally really well done. Thanks!

Just a correction though : some sort of clarification I mean, it's not that explosives pass through zombies armor, it's because they have only physical armor, and as you said perfectly, players have explosive armor attached to the stuff they wear. Which means zombies are more sensible to electricity, fire and explosives because they have no perks at all agains those types of damage (taken into account that players can have protection to fire and electricity only via perks I believe... not sure about that though), meaning pipe bombs (and electricity to a much lesser extend) are life saviors early game against masses of zombies from More Zombies mods, whatever players use.

Pipe bombs are a god send. For the last few years, our group regularly uses over 100 pipe bombs per person each blood moon, they are dirt cheap and stupidly effective.

@elduquecaradura1468 Жыл бұрын

I tend to use pipe bomb in latest stage game, to compensate their weak damage, I tend to do Explosives Expert and eat Atomic Junks as if I were an addict. Still worth a lot, and I think there is no zombie that could stand two pipe bombs with double to triple damage, wich is arguably between 460 and 690 damage per pipe bomb, not even Demolishers would stand that, and for that mean, there are rifles and headshots

Just an interesting fact regarding Molotov's. Despite not being what most people think of when you hear the word "grenade". They are in fact considered by the US military to be grenades. Typically referred to as: "Frangible grenades" or "improvised Grenades" Or just "incendiary grenades". Funnily enough the Oxford dictionary specifies that a grenade can be: "a glass vessel filled with chemicals that are dispersed upon being thrown or broken, and can be used to test drains, and extinguish fires" Which... the first half describes a Molotov, but "extinguishing fires" is definitely not what a Molotov does XD

You've missed the worst part about landmines, you don't get XP for their use. Putting that under traps used to not give xp might have made sense at some point but now advanced engineering gives you some xp for leveling up the skill, AFAIK landmines still give no xp, so you're spending resources to progress through the game slower.

I like this video, even if I knew all this. But, I had a doubt, I was testing some things in a test world, like stepping on a mine, throw greandes and that sort of things, and if I took damage while stepping on my own mine, which is realistic, I did not take damage while throwing pipe bombs, and greandes at my feet. That had me to doubt about what happened... a simple grenade thrown at my feet should have killed the level 1 test character... Or at least do some damage and send it flying... no such thing happened. That contrasts with what Glock9 said in it Farmer Glock series, he prefers normal grenades as he "has some time to get back if he fucks this up by throwing it at his feet instead at the zombies". I never threw bombs et myself save for molotoves because the game hit boxes are sometimes stupid... but during this test I took no damage from my grenade... I don't understand why and how is this possible. I just redid it now because of your video, to test it with no creative mode, no developper mode... And yeah. I took no damage from either pipe bomb, grenande or contact grenade, standing just over each of them.
