by theygamesWhat are the best 7 Days to Die mods? Over the last decade, 7 Days to Die has made a name for itself as one of the best survival games out there, and all while in early access. Now the full release is nearly upon us after all this time, it’s as good as ever.
That said, if you’ve been playing since day one, you might be looking for ways to change up your 7 Days to Die gameplay in 1.0. Thankfully, inventive new 7 Days to Die mods continue to flood in thick and fast from the community, and they’re showing no signs of slowing down. As you wait for the 1.0 release date, amplify your survival game experience with these top 7 Days to Die mods, all compatible with the current 1.0 beta.
Here are the best 7 Days to Die mods:
Shared Reading
The Shared Reading mod is indispensable to those who play the zombie game with friends. When one person picks up and reads a book or magazine, thus learning the skills associated with it, everyone in your party now unlocks the skill at the same time. This makes everything so much easier, as you no longer all have to find the same magazines or get that one person with that skill to do all the work. The same goes for crafting schematics.
Bicycle Speed Boost
As you can from the rather self-explanatory name, the Bicycle Speed Boost mod boosts the speed of the in-game bike. That’s not to detract from just how useful this mod is though, as the standard speed can get pretty frustrating. You’ll be pleased to hear that the mod doesn’t mean you’re peddling at unrealistic rates, instead, the difference offers a noticeable increase in travel speed while remaining realistic to suit the nature of 7 Days to Die.
Increase All Stack Sizes
While there are a lot of stack size mods for 7 Days to Die, and some are more configurable than Increase All Stack Sizes, this is one of the best and most functional we’ve found so far for 1.0. The only downside is that this mod automatically just increases the inventory stack maximum to 30,000 as standard. However, we’ve not seen any issues with this so far.
You can change the number in the game files, but if you aren’t familiar with how to do so or don’t want to risk breaking the mod altogether, then 30,000 should still allow your game to run without bugging out any items – and still completely removes any worries that you’ll run out of inventory space.
Fast Tree Growth
One of the first mods we look for with any survival crafting game is one that speeds up the growth of trees. Naturally, wood is one of the most crucial and valuable resources you can find in 7 Days to Die, and is required for a number of crafting and building recipes, so running out is a bit of a bummer. You can sit around and wait for those trees to grow at the standard rate, or you can speed things up a but with this Fast Tree Growth mod, and be back at your workstation in no time.
No Enemy Indicators
No, we’ve not worded that wrong. That is no enemy indicators – and we love this mod. Let’s face it, we’re playing a zombie survival game for the challenge, and entering a quest to be shown where enemies are around you doesn’t really replicate the real-life implications of a zombie apocalypse. We don’t want to know where they’re hiding, we want to be surprised, to have to think fast to survive. With the No Enemy Indicators mod from Byteblazar, you can do just that. You might just die more.
Less Wasteland Rubble
This one is just a general quality of life mod, making drive and cycling through the wasteland a much smoother ride. Unfortunately, Less Wasteland Rubble only works on new maps, so you can’t use this on your existing worlds, but if it’s something you’ve found bugs you, it might be worth considering for the 1.0 release.
Snow to Water
This simple modlet from the creator of Fast Tree Growth and Less Wasteland Rubble is a similar godsend, giving you the recipe option to turn snow into water – essential when you’re stuck and running low in a frozen wasteland.
So, there you have it, the best 7 Days to Die mods for you to try out. With 7 Days to Die launching from early access soon, there has never been a better time to play the apocalypse game and try to survive the night.
