Football & Shoving [SP & MP]

Unleash Your Inner Athlete in Project Zomboid with Football & Shoving

Prepare to tackle the zombie apocalypse with a newfound athletic prowess! The Football & Shoving mod injects a unique blend of sports-inspired mechanics into Project Zomboid, offering exciting new ways to interact with the undead hordes. Whether you dream of being a gridiron hero or simply want to push back the relentless tide of zombies, this mod provides the tools and traits to do so.

Embrace the Football Player Lifestyle

This mod introduces the “Football Player” trait and the “NFL Player” profession, granting survivors a distinct advantage. Imagine charging into a group of shamblers and sending them flying! The effectiveness of your shoves is directly influenced by your character’s Strength, making powerful survivors even more formidable.

Enhanced Mobility and Resilience

Navigating dense zombie crowds can be a death sentence. Fortunately, this mod enhances your survivability with improved Nimble skill. A higher Nimble level, especially when combined with the Football Player trait, significantly reduces your chance of tripping and falling amidst a swarm. Keep your footing, stay on your feet, and continue your fight for survival.

Key Features of Football & Shoving:

• Gain the Football Player trait or NFL Player profession for unique abilities.
• Shove zombies by running into them, with effectiveness based on Strength.
• Reduced chance of tripping and falling in large zombie groups, boosted by Nimble.
• Football item repurposed as a short blunt melee weapon.
• Holding a football increases the likelihood of shoving zombies.
• Optional “Pure Shove” mod available for a football-free experience.

More Than Just Shoving

Beyond the core shoving mechanics, the Football & Shoving mod offers additional benefits. The Football Player trait nullifies all clothing-based discomfort, ensuring your survivor remains comfortable regardless of their attire. Furthermore, the football itself is transformed into a usable weapon, functioning as a short blunt melee tool. While its damage might be modest, it offers an alternative in a pinch.

Customization and Multiplayer Support

The mod is highly customizable, with nearly every variable adjustable in the sandbox settings. You can fine-tune the shoving mechanics, from requiring precise alignment for a knockdown to making every shove a guaranteed success. Best of all, both the full Football & Shoving experience and the standalone “Pure Shove” mod function flawlessly in multiplayer, allowing you and your friends to strategize and dominate the undead together.
