Well, its hard to put this all into a small review so everyone doesn’t get bored, but I do have to say that this is one of the most well-done mod-packs I have seen in a while. DeceasedCraft definitely gives you a realistic zombie gameplay that gets you so invested for hours on end. I have been playing this mod-pack for a while with my friend CC and it has honestly been a blast, it just doesn’t stop with how creative you can be. You survive on the world that was left behind and make a new one for the future.

First of all, I’ve played some modpacks and made some myself and I can definitely tell that this modpack is crafted with passion. It rewards exploration but it also necessary to upgrade your base due to the horde nights. Almost every item has its recipes tweaked to better match the modpack as a whole. It is on the more difficult side but it can be toned down.

But do keep in mind, due to the use of custom lost cities with entity blocks, the generation of lost cities it self, the amount of spawners on said cities, and minecraft’s own unoptimized code, it is a bit heavy on your PC

All in all really good modpack. Really looking forward to its next update.

Overall the modpack is nice, very immersive, with awesome shaders making it kino experience. The pack is very rewarding for exploring which is risky, but gives the player access to otherwise hardly obtainable tech. Kudos to the creators for making Refined Storage easily obtainable in this way, while not giving up the whole tech, but just the necessities. There are some issues me and my friends encountered along the way:

– The difficulty was not linearly going up, but in rather big surprise leaps. You get used to some level of horde and suddenly you have boomer making pile of rubbish out of your base. And then next, and next…

– When raiding some more difficult structures with my friends, the enemy count jumped so high, that our FPS dropped from 144 to 20-30, adding yet another level of difficulty.

– Very unfortunate that Immersive Engineering and the car mod requires command block to be properly spawned, as on our server we encountered quite a lot of command blocks and hammers just lying around. (I didn’t see any command blocks in single player though)

– My last issue is with story, so it’s going to be spoiler. ||The endgame was just anticlimactic. You build you base, making it stronger, taking on stronger and stronger foes, developing a cure that could save the world, and it’s just an instant weakness with golden apple (that you don’t even have to craft as there’s plenty of it all around the world). And The Abyss is only good for obtaining of the brain, as all of the resources that are there are useless as you’ve already reached the end of the game. It’s such a shame, especially considering how cool the laboratory and military bases are.||

My (and my friends as we concluded this together) overall rating would be 3.5/5. It was nice experience, just enough in playtime to satisfy our Christmas tradition.

Closing note, I haven’t played other zombie modpacks, so I can’t really compare it to others, so take this info into account as well.

Playtime: 190 ingame days ~ 60h (3 people on the server, 190 is average)

Very enjoyed this Modpack. Truly appreciate the effort developers put in it.

I played this modpack like 4 months ago with a group of friends and we absolutely loved this modpack. It’s a zombie survival modpack with loads of good mods, incredible armors, but the best part about it is a world with interesting places that makes you actually want to explore to and do stuff at!

One the things I find really annoying with Minecraft mods, is that usually they expect you to make a base that you expand and add more to with the tech stuff or the building stuff, and while I love that, its kind of what Minecraft was originally about, but at the same time this modpack with it’s focus on exploration and going to other structures to progress is so much more fun and an interesting change from other modpacks. This reason is the same reason why I love games like Terraria.

That being said this modpack isn’t without it’s issues, and the biggest one is the enemies and bosses, there’s definitely some cool different enemies, but the majority of differences are not really interesting stuff like their speed and damage, which isn’t all that fun as it makes it so there’s pretty much nothing you can do against those enemies except box yourself in and fight where they can’t hurt you, I wish there was something the enemies did to make them challenging in a different way that’s not unfair to the point you have to resort to boring solutions like I just mentioned. I also kind of dislike how useless it is to actually work on cool new machines, which yes I praise this mod for it’s incredible exploration, but I still want a incentive to create a permanent machine spot to support that exploration, all the machines really serve a purpose for is ammo production, since the materials you could get to get better armor is able to be gotten by just exploring, which I find fine, I mean maybe there should be some better balancing with that, but I thing there should be another reason to work on tech that isn’t way too important to force you into tech, but still help you with the main exploration.

Either way if you want to try a minecraft modpack, do this one it’s good compared to a lot of other ones.

game feels great. loot aspect and grind ratios are swell, some minor instability but so far so good. end progression can be a bit more as once you reach a certain point it seems almost boring.
