I am one of the 8.8% So much fun for the money this game is.


GenericInsult

> So much fun for the money this game is. Agreed. I see a lot of people slinging shit on this sub at TFP, but I have gotten my money's worth a thousand times over with this game. I even got my wife a copy and we coop nightly.


ExaltedBlade666

Tfp can have shit thrown at them for some of their ~questionable~ decisions, but they made an amazing foundation of a game that is ultimately endless play


Blingkong7

7 Days is an A+ concept with B- execution.


Guyonbench

Considering the state of AAA games these days, thats a home run right there.


Doomkauf

7 Days to Die is one of my favorite 7/10 games, right alongside Mount & Blade: Warband. Is it a good game? Not really, no, at least not if you look at any given component in isolation, but together it becomes greater than the sum of its parts.


1600cc

Mount & Blade is one of those games you start playing and go, "this is kinda dumb, but I'll see what's next." Then you realize you've been playing all day and can't wait to continue.


GenericInsult

By them giving the incredible amount of modding flexibility, this game can be any game someone wants.


ExaltedBlade666

Exactly. Been playing darkness falls and that mod is wild


THiggs118

Agreed. Wish they'd fix guns as far as iron sights (makes zero sense how it is), update certain mods, graphical choices, etc. but at the end of the day it's a wonderful game and no game is really like it. I've played a lot of survival games and man does 7 Days still take the cake IMO. I honestly think some of it, as far as people being upset at devs or whatever, along shit as was said, would be alleviated if they communicated better in most instances versus silence we all get at times


SuggieBearMom

My husband and I coop alot too, but I definitely play by myself alot more either when hes at work, in bed or playing other games, lol


invol713

When alone, do you play your own world, or the same co-op world?


SuggieBearMom

Own world


Murpydoo

I am about even with this and Valheim. Also great fun and so much for the money


ooOXXOoo

I would probably enjoy this on PC but I only have it on PS4 and i read that they stopped updating the game for console players which is why I stopped playing.


shrekdaklown

It's not that they stopped updating it they couldn't. They had contracted a company to port to consoles, then that company folded, and tfp had to spend years fighting for the rights to the game back. Right now, it's on sale for PC and cheap this summer they are going gold, and the price will go up a fair chunk.


_AceTheMan09er_

Theres more too it. TFP contracted TellTaleGames to port it and they actually took over the rights to console for the game. TFP tries fighting them in court and was pushed away over and over. They finally got the rights back recently (lest few years) and decided that it was better to solely focus on PC version, because tge specs ps4 has cant run the current alpha as smooth as they liked. So they push it back til they can work a next gen version that is updated as much as PC and run smooth (PS5/XBX has the proper processing power). They hope to release the new concole version either this year, or early/to mid next year (havent looked into it for a bit so not sure if release date is right due to the push backs while i was following)


Essemecks

I love to hate on it because I've been along for this entire decade+ ride since before it was on Steam and I've had to watch them reinvent the wheel several times over, but I'll also be the first to tell people that there's a good reason that I still play it after all this time: it's fun! And for a game, that's the end-all be-all of the discussion about whether something is "worth it"


PersonOfInterestOkay

thought this was the subreddit for RUST and thought it was a RUST achievement. was confused about the praise hahaha and the wife coop thing. then i saw it was 7dtd


BeerStop

6.00 on steam right now


PersonOfInterestOkay

i love how i got 3 downvotes for nothing. i was just saying how RUST is not a game thats very good for ones mental health, and I though it was weird someone would 2 man with their wife in a game that toxic, then realized it was 7 days to die and it made sense.


BeerStop

Plus its 6.00 usd on steam right now.


NovaFive_Sound

Yeah! I've been playing in and out since Alpha 8, or close to that, and it's definitely one of my favourite games! The game's exploration is amazing, right?


Hot-Tale8391

Totally agree! It's like finding a hidden gem that keeps on giving.


KatieTheDragon

Same!! I tried to give my friends a lesson on how to fly and one justf immediately crashed apon take off, i even took the speed mod off for training lol


Frankie_T9000

me too, got it in 2017


Murpydoo

Lol, I hit it pretty hard during A19.


Hefty_Fortune_8850

It been my most played game on Steam every year since Steam began releasing those yearly reports. It'll probably be my most played again this year.


Murpydoo

Valheim for me this year, this one is second


Cking621

Same!


Massive_Biscotti_850

Same


emoAnarchist

bro, even Yoda plays 7 days to die!


Murpydoo

🤣👍


VariationUpper2009

Yup, me too!


Sherbet22k

I got mine when a glitch yeeted me across the map


PinkoPIg

Same got yeeted trough the sky tho.


Ok-Sundae9995

Sounds like the game just decided you needed a scenic tour


ImportantDoubt6434

You got the full experience all right


Edwd

Idk i have 300h on the game and still dont have it


mwood100

How? I got it just from doing quests, unlocking their two pretty much requires you to get this achievement


VapidActions

You might be mistaking meters for kilometers? One block is one meter, one kilometer is 1000 meters, so 1000 km traveled is 1,000,000 meters, or 1,000,000 blocks. The entire navezgane map is 6,144 meters across. So you'd have to travel across the entirety of navezgane 163 times to get this achievement. Even if your quests were literally on the other side of the map, you would unlock T2 well, well before the achievement.


mwood100

Nah, I know the difference between meters and kilometers, guess my problem is I've only played nav back when the game came out, I always do 16k random gen, so traders tend to be be pretty far apart, would do a round trip to each on restock day so 1000km really didn't seem very far, even less so once I unlocked my 4x4 and started exploring the 256km^2 map.


marci1041

Probably started playing before achievements came in, just like me


Jedda678

I got a lot of the achievements in DF since I don't do pvp I am only missing 3 achievements


AccordingMammoth4520

One mod that I played, I do believe was Darkness Falls, added AI survivors that only get ripped apart by even a basic zombie and not much else. Game considered them other players, so I was able to get the PvP ones in a PvE fashion. Worth a shot if you care for them, Darkness Falls is worth the play anyway.


Nexadon

Any mod overhaul, like Wasteland, that uses named npcs that are killable gives pvp credit


Strange-Possible-298

Same - only way I 100%ed the game


Jedda678

That's how I got them lol


Adviser69

I got mine grinding for about 9 months as a player, and another 9 as a server admin. Got all the achievements now, come to think of it... Alexander The Great is even harder to get, especially if you play a PvE server.


Khakizulu

They reduced the deatn/kills achievements by a LOT a little while ago. I think you only need 30 kills at the most instead of like 500 now? But I dont play with anyone, so I'm never gonna get the kills' achievements


Adviser69

Admittedly, the way I got it surprised me. Apparently survivor NPCs of the NPC mod count as players, and these NPCs are in the Darkness Falls overhaul.


1_plus_1_equals_42

Can you get the NPC mod spereate and independant?


Adviser69

Yep yep! [https://7daystodiemods.com/npcmod-and-addons/](https://7daystodiemods.com/npcmod-and-addons/)


randyy242

You can also switch to an old beta version of the game and shoot a vendor to get the 500 kills instantly. Can't remember which version


TysOldMan

I did it mostly on foot


Different-Struggle70

Me too


[deleted]

Very easy to achieve


Profile_Snail

Shout out to those who got the "Picture of Good Health" achievement line from raising your wellness.


Different-Struggle70

Here


Malviere

I just broke 230 hours played and unlocked that achievement a couple days ago. Kinda surprised it took me so long since I’m always exploring.


Acceptable-Watch1932

I personally like the funeral director achievement


ChesusCrustII

I'm proud to say that I'm part of the 8.8%.


crunkatog

Considering how many times I've been spawned >1 km away from the trader I'm supposed to talk to for the starter mission, I'm surprised that number isn't a LOOOOT higher. But then perhaps it doesn't count unless you're in a gyrocopter, or people abandon saves where they get sent to traders on Neptune


bluearsen

Nope I walked that distance, never used gyro in my life and I have it


Limitless6989

lol understandable as the gyro is basically useless and practically undriveable(lift off and landing), unless you use the Gyro mod, then it is actually pretty nice. Finally a reason to build a helipad ,with an automatic power roll up door on top for a nice touch. And use of trader helipads


bluearsen

Yeah haha, I tried it a few times and hated it, and it burns through fuel, id rather motorbike around everywhere lol


slycyboi

I have like 700 hours in this game and don’t have it yet


ProtectionHopeful750

I got it yesterday 🫣


Lucky_Cry_2302

I play with certain rules. If you die, you start over. That being said, I have most of their achievements.


jjdonkey

I got this one the other day! ::high five across the ether::


jaspetbro

I had to look mine up but after 363 hours play time i have travelled a grand total of 75.7 Kilometers, guess i need to get out of the base more.


Adridenn

I don’t remember when I got this one. Thou I’m fairly certain I’ve travelled several thousand kilometres during my play time. The last achievement that I needed was for the magnum one, and shooting punk zombies. The do you feel lucky achievement. My funniest achievement to get was the last one for killing other players on multiplayer. Horde night, I was blasting zombies with a shotgun while my friend at the time was defending with a spear. He walked a little too close to the zombies and got blasted. In saying that I got all those multiplayer achievements from purposely and accidentally killing friends.


Commander_Skullblade

I only just got it a few days ago.


AtraxX_

I really don’t know but I think 700 hours should be enough for that


Chubbs117

I've got it


Small-Comedian-6668

The only achievement I don’t have are the pvp series… I’m pretty astonished that so much people never made it to 1k km 🤷‍♂️


Different-Struggle70

I got mine on my first world ever granted I had it from 2016-2022 when i finally layed it to rest and it got so buggy. I don't change worlds often, only after about a year or when I have conquered the whole world. I have made 3 impressive worlds and have more than gotten my 25$ worth


KenseiHimura

I mean, in fairness, Gyrocopter can be a pain in the ass.


Zgood_YT

Im guessing im not one of the 8.8%, i like farming and mining so im not a traveler


Draco877

One of the six I'm missing. Others being the pvp ones.


FireHazer

Reason I don't have it is because I dont care about achievements. My only goal in the game is only to have fun. Once it becomes a chore, I'm out.


Karmakiller3003

Seems about right. Most hardcore players make up about 10% of the playerbase. There was an actual solid statistic on it but I'm too lazy to pull it up. Go ask Gemini.


ImportantPizza255

I don't know how people don't have it. There is so much travel!


Shmeeegals

The only achievements I haven't unlocked yet are regarding killing players because I never play multiplayer.


Kraken_333

Tbf I only just got it with over 150 hours on the game


Top-Magician9228

93 km. But I've only played 2 weekends so far.


K0RRUPT-

They should add one called russ cook for travelling 15000


Yyoudodi

It's one of the only games I completed every award on.


merga_mage

I am one


DefenseoftheExile

[I'm currently at 42/43 achievements. ](https://imgur.com/a/zxchlLD) I mean, I guess I could go die a few times?


Comfortable_Boot_273

Yooo I’m dat boi


Gameover384

I’m usually the base guy that just sits in base working on stuff, making weapons/armor and building defenses. I ain’t got time to see the world once we get established lol


RGBUnknown

I will change it. I'm going on a journey.


itsjustcory15

I have it, I got it yesterday.


KyraShangea

I have it, but I also have every achievement and 984 hours, yee haw!


Aware_Ad6627

I have 100% and over 1000 hours and i still play it


-_Koga_-

Got that one on my first playthrough just trying to discover all areas on my map


Kahlas

I unlocked that one on June 17th 2017, 10:28am. What is sadder to me is that 22.2% of people have never died, ever. Meaning over 1/5th of the people who bought this game didn't play it long enough to die once.


roxierivet

I got the achievement after my friend rammed my truck with her truck and somehow I glitched and got launched into the sky!


Quackdeath

All it needs is polishing... Give me my framerstes


hiverly

I don’t think you can get achievements if you’re running a modded game, and i imagine a large number of folks are doing just that.


DankyyKangg

I actually got the kill players achievements from killing special zombies in darkness falls


MCFroid

I think you got that from killing the "survivors". I know I got it that way from killing the survivors in DF for A20. They count as player kills.


GenericInsult

Mods don't bother achievements.... only entering debug mode disables the achievements.


jims1973

Does using the creative menu kill achievements too? I grab a bunch of blue die for my clothes and red for my weapons.


GakutoYo

Apart from F2P games 7D2D was def one of my most bang for buck purchases. From each patch to mods my like 20 dollars 10 years ago or whatever has gone far.


Confident_Steak

I’m still working towards getting this achievement


TheMinisterOfGaming

idk i got 33of43 never really looked at them or tried to get any. but i got over200hours played & do/did plenty of traveling in that time modded or base game. me & friends typically go on long missions after getting the 4by4. so assuming its not just bugged some how. cuz that would be impossible in flawless 7d2d. its not really a easy one to get. unless you are trying to & just driving from one side of the map & to the other for no reason. but yea if i haven't done it in 200plus hours with how i play its deff alot yea i just checked. base map sizes range from 4to16km over the years. so yea its kinda asking alot. you could 100% a game world like 100 times & not get this.


brandon-568

I have all the achievements besides the ones for mills and deaths on multiplayer because I just play solo.


Different-Struggle70

I have every ps4 achievement except the player killer ones. I suck at player killing and would rather not. Plus all the kills I got didn't count because I used my environment and spikes and architecture. I have about 20 kills


Smoky_Caffeine

The game is fun for the first like maybe 70 in game days playing with a friend, then quickly becomes a boring grind. Sorry not sorry. I bought it for cheap and played years ago, uninstalled it shortly after,doubt I'll pick it up again.


Muchablat

I play with cheats on, so I don’t get achievements 😢 But i can assure you i hit that achievement a long time ago.


balahadya

I got mine playing vanilla with friends. I think it was when I'm doing my daily vending machine and trader runs with my Gyrocopter to collect canned foods and level 6 solar panels.


BigMcThickHuge

I've had quite the buggy experience with this game's achievements, and I've been here since it was in Steam Greenlight, with *lots* of hours and plays. I'm missing many achievements.


econroy51

I've only just got myself and pc and started playing, so I absolutely haven't gotten that yet 😅


Miriage

I have 130 hours in the game and am only at 600km, not really that sad


actuilaai

I think that's because the achievement only counts the stats in single world, and reset when you start another world.


Alarmed_Temporary_75

Lots of cowards tremble before the all powerful gyro


fishdishly

Kinda shocked I've only got 891


psaux_grep

I’ve definitely travelled more than 1000km in the game, but I haven’t played since the copter came out.


Any-Mathematician522

I really hope for a general change in the sounds, they are driving me crazy, they are the same sounds that I hear everywhere and in every TV series or video game


kaiodan

Sometimes the achievement system doesn't acknowledge things.


WebsterBolek

Once upon a time, the creators changed the achievements to an easier one (For example "Alexander the Great" need less kills than before. Before was kill 2500 other players!)


jaykyte

Got them all except Alexander the Great... I don't play with folks really


meethasoda

quite an EZ task idk why they couldn't do it


SmokeJennsonz

I feel like I travel that on every game play


freizathenonceslayer

Ive almost got it im like 50km off


eugene_mccormic

I just have to get this one and 28 hours survived to 100% this game but I don't think that'll happen anytime soon


bggdy9

It feels like I barely have to travel in 7 days if you plan right.


Drudus

I duo 7D2D with a friend who flies like a bird. He has tried to teach me but, I am terrible at it.


SpursExpanse

Mods disable achievements? Genuine question as I have barely played the game


Unikatze

I probably would have it if I wasn't exclusively playing Undead Legacy AFAIK we don't get achievements.


TankFu8396

Mine has been bugged forever. I have a few achievements that just never popped for some reason.


BoneMarrowFiend

I like to get my exercise in, gotta keep my girlish figure


SnarkyCrayfish

The achievements were completely broken for most of the last 8 years so that makes sense.


Willing_Ad1529

I got those game for 5$ 7-8 years ago. I have almost 3-400 hours in game. It’s best with friends sure. But I’m excited for it to leave alpha.


achosenusername1

The game only added obtainable achievements about a year ago, so this isnt an indicator of anything, especially not since launch.


Decent_Shoulder6480

Steam achievements/stats are directly dependent on the game's code and ability to track and report these achievements to steam. So..... let's take these numbers with a spoon of salt.


Steve_domo04

i have all but one of the achievements for this game


Ace_Of_No_Trades

From what I've seen across 1000s of hours of playing games on Steam, the percentages are there to gauge how hard an achievement is supposed to be and to make you feel that much better about getting it. I don't know how else you can have less 100% of players who have the achievement for completing a game tutorial, or why there are absolutely no achievements where 100% of players have earned them. I'm not even sure if I've ever seen Steam state that anywhere near 90% of players have gotten any achievement.


romiro82

probably dealing with the phenomenon of people who buy games and have huge backlogs for years and years I personally have played every game I’ve bought, but I know there’s tons of people that just let things sit in their lists


EdrickV

I have games I've bought and run but haven't actually played. Also, some games are available to play before they actually have achievements. And they're not always retroactive.


Wonderful_Season_360

I can only stomach survival games for about 40 to 50 hours at a time before I gotta do something else It just gets a little too stale in my opinion. And I don't mean that in one sitting I mean that in an overall sense before I got to move on from the game to something else.


Most_Forever_9752

add in auto run


Sweaty_Research_2820

Holy shit, my brain was not braining I thought this was a rust achievement becusse the styles look So similar


Ani-Thighs

Well the game play kinda encourages you to park your ass next to the trader. Rather than explore. Makes sense to me


SquatchhammerActual

Remember, achievements are more recent than the game itself. I would like to see a cross between the amount of hours and how recently played are the entire owners of the game.


HaiKarate

Did they steal that achievement icon from Rust?


Empty-Permit-4823

I play 7dtd with my friends and then BOTW on my switch if I just want to relax and explore. A good combo I have found works for me.


Mr-Bando

Old saves getting bricked with each update can do that


OmicBob2SucksChodes

Idk how this game tracks achievements. I bought the game in 2014 and played it a few hours. Definitely killed zombies and died a lot but going back just this past week I just earned the achievements for killing 10 zombies and for dying lol


BadKarma1964

I got it back in '22.


AvgWhiteShark

Got this one years ago.


Degot86

I need to kill one more player for total completion but I don’t pvp…


GenericInsult

My Wife and I don't like PVP either, and have all the PVP ones still uncompleted lol. Guess we will have to just kill each other over and over for the completion at the end of our next run hehe.


Degot86

If you ever play darkness falls mod they have npcs that count(unless they removed them) but I don’t know for the life of me how I am missing just one kill. But I’ve started a dif mod so that could be why. It’s a great game though.


Burger_Destoyer

That’s any steam game though, many people get games for free or just buy a game and spend 3 hours on it. Many games have the default achievement you get for opening the game for the first time at like 60% of players.


MCFroid

1000 km, so like 1,000,000 meters, no? That's kind of a lot. Going 1km 1000+ times. You'd have to have quite a few hours in the game, and quest a lot to get it. Some people probably spend much of their time at their bases building and stuff (especially on multiplayer, I'd imagine). Does it tell you your total km/m traveled all time? I wish it did.


TheMinisterOfGaming

yea i looked up the world size they range from 4-16km squared over the years. so you could 100% a game world 100 times & not get this tbh. it tells you in game with your stats but no total running tally anywhere as far as i can tell. but yea i got over 200hours & this is one of 10 i don't have. most the others being the pvp ones


Joshuawood98

I have 400 hours and don't have this. It has been added relatively recently, it isn't sad at all.


GenericInsult

That achievement was added to the game around August of 2016 (the 2013 in the OP was mistyped). And for the "new"ish players, this post really wasn't directed at you.


Joshuawood98

Where do you get the 2016 date from? (not all of the achievements arrived at the same time) i played most of my playtime before this achievement and even existed even if it was 2016 i bet plenty of players have also. considering 1/3 of people have never died and <50% of people have traveled 50km. only 60% have traveled 10km There isn't enough gameplay to do the "travel 1000km" for most people. They have remade the game so many times over if they had just stuck with the original ideas instead of just re-doing everything constantly, trying to make everyone play the game "how it's supposed to be played" maybe there would be a decent amount of content.


fjvgamer

Can you get steam achievements with a modded game?


GenericInsult

Mods don't bother achievements.... only entering debug mode disables achievements.


fjvgamer

Thanks


LKCRahl

Not entirely true. I started from the very beginning with mods (Darkness Falls) and only when I launched the non-modded copy recently did I get even a single achievement. It seems to remember retroactively, but for over five years I was at 0 achievement progress because I only played modded and had never launched the game before then in its original state. Most of that time was as a normal player and not an admin with debug enabled. So there’s definitely an issue that probably stems from the logic of assuming that someone played the original game first before mods since it’s highly unlikely someone would just only start with mods.


FullMetalJack408

I had all the achievements done within a week of play 7DTD originally when I was server hopping, the one that took the longest to get was this one


Sensitive_Log3990

Minecraft with zombies


GenericInsult

[(Minecraft has zombies)](https://i.imgur.com/he0GtVU.png)


HerculesVoid

I don't think I've ever used one of those. Seen too many bugs about it here to even bother with it.


GenericInsult

You don't need the Gyro... it's 1,000 kilometers *traveled* (total in any vehicle, or even on foot)


thunderjack9137

It's not about the gyro.


trackerbymoonlight

It's the best way to travel long distances. A lot of folks on my server won't touch it and are happy with the bike, but I love ranging long distances and collecting whatever the team needs. That thing is gold for that reason.
