Seriously I found it is now much harder to sneak around and steal from abandoned houses.  
I can’t recall how many time I got swamped by zombies.

Getting assaulted by zeds that kept resurrecting (updated and still remembering the new ‘butcher things’ precaution), and that’s not what killed me.

What started the horrible descent was that in the act of dropping backpacks and things to lower encumbrance for fighting, I accidentally picked up tainted meat along with everything else. hotkeys were assigned, I accidentally ate the stuff instead of smoking a cigarette. And that didn’t kill me.  
More cigarettes and pills were needed to escape YET MORE ZOMBIES, and everything added up into basically more barf. This is my curse for this particular game, it seems. |:/ infinite cookietoss. The overdoing it on the drugs didn’t kill me.

The pukefest that followed forced me to chug toiletwater to keep ahead of severe dehydration, which I admit I was mostly just experimenting with by that point. I think I got the barf message about a hundred and ten times, give or take another twenty I don’t know. And that didn’t kill me.

My guy fucking survived basically a four hour purge only to realize he hadn’t been followed into the abandoned home, crawled into the kitchen, found a lone can of V8 on the floor, cried for joy.

And was promptly gimp-slapped into my drink. Way to make me feel bad, bear. I liked my bloods on the inside. It was all I had left in there, blood and V8.

Yep, bears are terrible.

Fucking wildlife seems to be flourishing or something, IRL I live in the middle of fuck nowhere and I don’t see this many animals.

Reducing wildlife Pro= Less bears/cougars/Ninjabears/BasementBears/anything else I missed  
Con= Hunter builds would be generally harder to play.

I wonder why wild animals come back so quickly after the cataclysm.  
Shouldn’t there be zombie rabbits, zombie bears, zombie cats, only zombie dogs?

Perhaps the virus only affects certain animals.

Most animals would smell zombies miles away and run.

Just found out what an amiga horror is as I was curious of what was at the end of a mine shaft. Well wood axes don’t do much to them.

No one makes you bleed like a bear[sup]TM[/sup].

Just to keep it on topic, my last death was from trying to swim across a river carrying 100lbs. of gear. I thought it was an improvement over the 230lbs. I had on before, but apparently gravity does not grade on a curve. I was five squares from the other side of the river when I snuffed it.

My starting evac shelter was right next to a superstore. Fresh and well-rested, I decided to take the zombies therein head-on. Bodies piled up as I went Tiger Style Kung fu on their sorry undead asses. When my injuries became severe I led them in a dash through the aisles, grabbing first aid kids and bandages. The medical supplies ran out quickly, and I retreated to the evac shelter and made my last stand. Surprisingly, I killed them all!

I was dying of thirst, so I went into the store to find some water.

In the back near the refrigerators, I noticed something odd–all the zombies I’d killed were rising again! WHAT THE FUCK, they can do that?!? I snagged a bottle of apple cider and headed for the back door, ASAP.

Superstores have no back door. Somehow, again, I escaped out the front with what’s left of my life.

But come on, we know what happens now.

I’m playing the tiles version. I’d never been to a superstore either, it’s fantastic!

Do you mean that the .exe is named Catalysm-tiles? It is the SDL build then.

Superstores have been around since the Whales version.

Unless you mean that superstores and megastores are different.

Yes it was a megastore and not a superstore.

Yes it was the SDL build and not ‘tiles’.

And to top it off, I didn’t die like I thought I would.

Sorry for the confusion, I’m going back to bed.

Well, I’m pretty sure “megastores” and “superstores” are the same thing, but they’re called “megastores” ingame.
