Luckiest moment or best choice you ever made in this game

RogueEsp · 2014-04-13T15:48:13.000Z

I take the quest of the survivor in the shelter, my quest was kill the famous Jabberwock. Wen I see him, I remember that I don’t have ammo. I shit my pants an then, start running off. In the run, I find an dead corpse, that dead corpse got an lot of ammo.
I was criying of happines.
Then, the Jabberjock just start hurting me while I was reloading.
Aww shet, I gonna die… But no.
My torso and my head was, literally, destroyed, but I killed the Jabberwock with only two very lucky shots. In my search for first aid kits, I founded an pharmacy who got, literally, 15 bandages and 8 first aid kits.
Well, I think that is the most luckiest moment I ever had…

Why not ?[/quote]

Archery makes the game too easy. Now, trying to punch your way through a horde of zombies? That’s not easy. But it is really fun, especially when you come out with all your limbs still attached.

Wtf… I tried archery on a hulk, died just firing the bow, I try using a wood axe and a bush, he dies only hitting me once.

jokermatt999 · 2014-04-14T04:17:34.000Z

I wound up killing a zombie hulk with a nail bat on my first character. I didn’t even realize how lucky that was until much later.

Depends on your skills with bows and melee.

Finding a barn was the best thing that could have ever happened to my character, and the fact that it had a working truck and was close to a small town. Also had a shovel and a farm plot that attracts a lot of wildlife. set4leif

I wonder if I can make it past winter with this one, oboi

Installing a CBM.
The CBM saved my life one morning when the door LOCKED ME IN.
I didn’t smash the door down because a horde was outside, and I used my fingerpick and escaped.
Until I got in a car that had no seatbelt and went flying into a jabberwock.
Much !FUN! was had that day.

Out of the frying pan and into the fire, eh?

TinHead · 2014-04-15T23:37:52.000Z

I still don’t know why THE HELL THE DOOR LOCKED.
But I think it was damaged or something, but I couldn’t see threw it and it didn’t say.
But much !!FUN!! was had with the new guy, who spawned in the same evac shelter.
Horde was outside, and my last dude ran like fifteen squares.
It was only a matter of time before I figured something out to save my guy.
Blood sacrifice to the RNGs!!!
Then again, I shouldn’t of done that as the horde heard my chanting, and ran in and made my dude DROWN IN A SEA OF GREEN, OH GOD THEIR ALL OVER MY EYES!!
Needless to say, I shall never fall behind on the blood quota by the RNG gods.

I recently managed to install a Probability Travel CBM, I now sleep securely inside of a locked bank vault on top a pile of gold and silver, the best part is that nothing can smell me inside of the vault, so even if a hulk showed up it would have no reason to bust through the wall and murder me in my sleep.

TinHead · 2014-04-16T18:39:24.000Z

Damn, survivor plan XD@*.
Hide in a vault and live until Hulk fucks you over.
Or it smells horrible and you die from lack of oxygen.

drinking/injecting a whole lot of serum at once and then taking a couple purifiers. what I ended up with was a character who was short two of her starting defects and whose legs had been replaced by the tentacles.

the luckiest moment was finding 6 military ID cards and getting a look at what was in those bunkers. thats some glorious loot. had to leave the last room locked until later, but it didnt really have much in it.

chintznibbles · 2014-04-17T05:48:35.000Z

This happened when I injected my first Mutation Serum:

Then I found six nice CBMs (Wired Reflexes, Muscle Augmentation, Internal Furnace and a few others) and a bunch of caseless Rivtech ammo in a military bunker a few screens south of my starting position. It took a lot of scrounging to find enough IDs to get it open, of course, but it was nice.

Ever tried smacking a zombie hulk with a frying pan ?Trust me don’t do it until your certain your life depends on it.I had character getting smacked around by the hulk and ended up killing it with a frying pan by accident .Lucky?Yes.Stupid idea to go to the science lab?The jury is still out…

All those hits that could have been used for unarmed practice.
