Once the quarantine hits (disabling new player registration and enabling permadeath headshots) you'll have to post the profile you're currently on, since you won't be doing any more rerolls after that.   DRILLING AND MANLINESS
I started about 10 chars and hid them about the city just for that scenario  awesome, for real

But really though, I'm playing a couple chars and seeing which one sticks.  Once the quarantine goes up, it will be easier to pick a guy to go with.  For now I just have multiple going so that my leveling advance isn't stopped by a single death from the un-killable and unending zombie hordes right now.

Heh, reminds me of this quote I saw on the wiki:

    * Lucy Dark killed al tantay. (05-29 15:13 BST)

My favorite UD quote of all time is one that I can no longer find an original copy of (I think it was on a forum that's since died), but I can paraphrase:

Quote
Survivor said "Who stole the cookie from the cookie jar?"
Survivor said "Zombie stole the cookie from the cookie jar!"
A zombie said "Mrh?"
Survivor said "Yes you!"
A zombie said "Graaaagh!"
Survivor said "Then who?"
A zombie said "Brnhr."

I made a fireman and have been committing run-by-choppings before running back to safety.  Yesterday I ran into several zombie clusters.  The first time I've seen such a concentration in several days.  I seem fairly successfull at searching and just now I found another axe.  No duel-wield I guess.  tongue

Teleku and myself are still alive... though keep in mind we started 4 or 5 characters that got eaten rather quickly.

But the last character I created is holding up well.
I'm in the same location as Teleku and Lorekeep. :)  I started there, and it's been relatively safe.  I'm sure that won't last though...

Wanting to see why other people were having trouble, I started a second character...  I've crossed two regions from my starting point in search of a non-ruined building with no luck...  Makes me afraid that the area my first character is at is basically the only non-ruined place on the server...

If it didn't cost 30 AP to restore ONE building, there'd probably be less ruined areas.

Crafty's found a little enclave of safety with a couple of tough customers (Tough being people that survived past level two, but hey).

If I can make it to where you guys are, I'll help out.

No matter what occurs, stay alive.  awesome, for real

I wish Kevan would enable Quarantine like he said he would.

I am curious what the delay is on that.  Maybe he's waiting for some magic threshold to be crossed in the survivor/zombie population ratio?  Once the quarantine comes down the zombie population is going to drop FAST.

Well it's at 1100 / 2900 now.  3:1 may be the magic number.

The fireman tip was awesome-- I am doing random drive-by choppings, up to 40 exp after two days, and not worried about ammo.  And I actually found a barricaded police station with people in it!

EDIT: My other character found a pistol but he already has one.  If I drop it, does it disappear into the ether or can another survivor pick it up easily?

Dropping items destroys them.  There's no way to pass items from one character to another (too much potential for abuse).

Having multiple weapons is good.  You save AP by not having to reload them in a fight.

In a lit, barricaded, fueled police department.  Getting crazy amounts of ammo with 8-10 other survivors.  PM me if you want the neighborhood and station name.  I can't trust the filthy zombies that frequent this forum  awesome, for real

Try having a 45% hit ratio. I still miss way too much.

That's been a common complaint in this game for years.

I just started a character. I ended up spending most my turns slowly grinding a zombie to death with my axe. I managed to close the door on my last turn. I've got no clue what's going on.

I'm barely holding onto life, down to only a few HP, and infected. But I am in a hospital, if only someone with a first aid kit comes before the zeds.

I started a few days ago, still alive and well and getting close to level 2.  I basically just hide somewhere and close the door, ive found nothing but single zombies or small packs so far.

I'm trying to "ween" myself off Multi Abuse.  I'm moving my zombies away from my current location except for the one on the other side of the map, because fundamentally I agree with what they are trying to accomplish, but at the same time I know that two people in the same room working together is just as likely to happen as one person running two characters.  I only ever made it so I was scouting and didn't try to make it so that my guy would attack the same person with multiple characters.

You know if my main dies, I think I'll be able to put this game down.  I mean without quarantine in place, Monroeville is Malton with an assinine ruleset.

Okie, now I'm pissed.  Just got Zk'd.  A zombie hit me eight hours ago (O'halligan), a survivor took a few whacks at me, and then another zombie (axemasterr) finished the job.



They're going on my hit list.

Hahahaha!  I'm really good at this!

Is there a monroeville map?

I started out in a city block, but it's just cornfields and stuff... I don't have any way to derive coordinate info... what am I missing?

Also... best place to search for ammo for a lvl1 is police stations? They seem to all belong to the other team.
