    This is pretty addicting. I want to head for the Mellish Walk Fire Station, but I'm afraid it will be too barricaded and the last thing I want is to be caught in the open.

    Oh maaaaaaan.

    This game just keeps sucking me back. I played back in the way early days, back before DARIS and the "Stay the FUCK out of Shearbank" months, back when headshotting a Zed took away all their experience and dying was DYING, goddamnit. None of this Necrotech nonsense! Back in the good old days when the Emerald Guard still operated and nobody believed Katthew was a girl until she posted nudie shots on the UD forums. Ah, sweet youth.

    I looted Caiger mall so damn hard. Maybe I should come back and do it again.

    Don't forget Flesh Rot! It does exactly the same thing, and is disgusting to boot!

    I should probably find a NecroTech Building to get revived before joining up with you guys, huh?

    Eh, just wander on over to one of the cemetaries in Scarletwood. Cemetaries are universally understood to be revive points.

    EDIT: Which reminds me, I need to grab some syringes on the way over.

    I remember trying this out a long, long time ago. I think I'll give it another shot now that there's a group of us.

    Edit: Made a char, Thelnin, Scout. Looks like I started in Dulston. Is our currently-agreed base still in Scarletwood? If so I'll start making the trek.

    Depends on the area, some suburbs use cemeteries others use churches, check the UD wiki to find out. I think people still haven't decided on a universally accepted revive point.

    So apparently I had thought free-running allowed me to get past any type of barricade and just enter a building. This seems not to be the case as I spent the last 20 turns of my first day panicking as no building would let me on. My 2nd last turn was praying that a church one square away was open, which it was, allowing me to use my last turn to step inside. 30 minutes later I get 1 AP back to discover a zombie inhabiting my spot, but now being inside a building I use my last turn to get the hell out of dodge and into a secure barricaded building.

    So much tension. Phew.

    You should check the OP for the download link to UDBrain

    It tells you the status of whatever buildings on your map, so you don't waste AP going to them to find out whether you can enter them or not.

    So uh, does it take a lot of AP for two zeds to take down a light barricade?

    'cause if not, I might be in trouble.

    Also, being a zombie fucking sucks. I parked Zombo Rama in a group of seven zombies yesterday. Today I log on, and there are fourteen, but some of them have been hitting me. Fortunately, they didn't kill me.

    A fucking zombie hunter did that.

    Just stand up. As a newbie zombie, you will have problems. You need a good horde to follow. Where are you? I'll open doors and rip down barricades for you. I enjoy dragging injured survivors out onto the street so all the zombies get to feed.

    An unfortunate result of the combat system in UD. You can't target individual zombies in a hoard, so when one zombie decides to start a mass orgy of violence, he only needs to hit one or two other guys to get the ball rolling.

    Zombie hoards are always orgies of violence.

    Many of the larger groups follow this policy, and I think we should too. For convenience at least.

    EDIT: And the only cemetery in Scarletwood is adjacent to an NT building so...

    The third time i found something it was a single shotgun shell.

    Wait... you can search a place more than once and sometimes find things? :facepalm: I'd assumed that things appeared in places at random times, and if you searched for them you'd find them, or not. Are there buildings that will just never, ever have something in them? I'm in something called "The Beater Building" in Payterton, and would gladly waste a few turns searching if something might be found.

    ... I know some of this stuff could be answered in the wiki. I read a bunch of entries but apparently didn't absorb enough.

    Edit: Also, the game FAQ says that your RNG rolls will be hurt if it looks like you have multiple accounts colluding. Is that just if it looks like you're using multiple accounts, or if the game sees that two characters from your IP are trading items or something?

    I didn't search the same spot more than once I just kept moving and searching.

    who from here made this?

    we should totally just revive it.
