How did you last die?

Ronson 7c, the latest in my line of Last Firefighters, had gotten some skills and upgraded his turnout gear to survivor gear, then gone into a spider basement and found an inactive laser turret. Yay!

He set the turret up outside his firestation to provide light while crafting. And then I hit the wrong buttons on the keyboard or something, accidentally smashed or attacked the dang thing, and the next thing I know there’s a huge explosion which sets off both of my spare gas cans and the fuel tanks in my minifridge/kitchen unit and in my upgraded welding cart. The resulting explosions take out the fire station and Ronson 7c.

On to the next poor sucker.

I found a cat… and a hulk.

advanced inventory management will move that moose corpse in 1 turn. or at least not 130

Thanks,

Yeah I figured it must be somewhat faster. I’m not sure, but I think it was 650 turns to pick up the corpse.
Because the Zombies started attacking me ‘13 minutes’ ago and I was still alive after the 650 turns. “Thank god to 4 dodge.” The two turns later of trying to run from their grabs killed me.

This is why I turn off revivification, I think it’s pointless to re-kill or waste my time smashing something I already killed.

Once it’s dead, I want it to stay dead.

I ran myself over with my own car. I think my character was hallucinating while driving through town. Swerved out of the way of something, hit something, a panel on my car broke, I think: Oh well, that’s not going to do anything. Grabber zombie decides to not be a hallucination. End of story.

This just made me think of driving into a shrub and flying out the front window, only to land in front of the car that keeps rolling forwards only to hit you.

Anybody else miss the old days when shrubs were like solid walls. You hit a shrub and you’re car would just be totally screwed. Heh…

But i’m not a car :(.

Started a game as a sheltered survivor. Oh yeah, tons of stuff in there. Turns out the shelter is on an island, try to swin ashore. Unfortunately, I can’t swim, drown.

Trivia: There’s 206 zombies on that screenshot ( I counted in Paint ).

Here’s the story:

tl;dr version, you lazy bums :<
I almost survived though. The spitters got me. Next time I should think about more acid/environmental resistance.

The long story:
I wanted to get some bionics. So I went to a nearby bank. Found nothing useful. Then i decided to loot the nearby bookstores/libraries, which were plentiful in that area. Then I robbed another bank, which had the teleportation CBM. My character got sleepy so I went to sleep in the bookstore from the picture. I almost froze to death, and when I woke up I was welcomed by a group of 10 zombies.

I thought bring it on, not much could touch me in my heavy survivor gear. I fought for a while, but zombies only kept coming and coming and coming. I went outside and turned on my head light. That’s the screenshot. After I got my arms almost broken from punching shocker brutes to death with my punch dagger, I knew there was only one way to escape.

The teleportation bionic. In much pain, and with 33 chance of genetic damage and whatnots, I’ve managed to install it. Cheers!

Except it teleported me deeper into the group. Still, I teleported again ( my energy ran out then ) and I managed to run away from the main horde… Until 3 spitters came out of nowhere. Normally I’d just save scum, but I decided that since my death was very warrior-esque and glorious, that I would simply let it go.

The End.

The one-year-and-a-season-old shower victim was harvesting blobs, and drowned in the grey goo sea.

Easily the number one killer of year old characters. Overestimating one’s own abilities. And landmines. Those too.

my day old character got out of town with a shotgun, 60 shells, and a morningstar.

and 2 deep bites. 1 cured itself, the other i tried to cauterize. It did not work, and I waited till night to go looking for a cure. I died inside a doctors office.

Damh (pronounced Dav) chugged milk because he was thirsty and neglected to notice how food-filling it was until he threw up. Then I found out that doing this imposes a damn Nausea penalty and Damh had to wander around finding a safe spot to wait that out before he could drink anything again. By that time he’d left barf everywhere and found a bed in some small corner, to pass out.

Guess the zombies from the town followed him out of it despite all the noise of that fire Damh had started as a distraction, because Damh woke up dead. What a moodkiller!

Don’t do the milk challenge in the apocalypse.

Last week I lost another survivor to boredom I swear boredom drops by and just can’t help singling out my cata save and killing my character.

I really need to lock my door

Raiding a lab with a veritable army of NPC’s and everything’s going okay (other than NPC’s being stupid enough to walk directly through a dissector. Repeatedly.) . That is until I run into a security bot. I switch to my shotgun only to see it’s not alone. I step back hoping me and the NPC’s can take them and die in the first hail of SMG fire.
