Have you ever wondered what happens when you crash into a child zombie while driving at ![](http://i.imgur.com/1oARb0l.png)(A bit more practice and i could make it to light speed).  
Well , today i sure found out what happens ![](http://i.imgur.com/LrooCcA.png)

I never thought this could happen , but trying to squeeze through 2 cars right next to a park makes up for a bloody adventure.

Had that happen once. TO ME. My engine was messing up so I got out to look at it, thinking getting out would stop the car. But noooo, the speed was like 29901 somethings, spinning around and ran into me. Rammed be through a wall of a house, hitting a bookcase, a refrigerator, and a wall before stopping. I died to about 10000 points of damage to everywhere.

Since the new version came out I decided to kill off Skip in style. I drove my armour plated truck through town smashing into everything my path, it took a serious beating and demolished a good 20 buildings before it finally packed up. I got out and kited a bunch of zombies to the gas station where I tried to set fire to one of the pumps, but they got to me before I could set off an explosion. Screenshots:

I found a hulk while raiding town on a pretty good archer, he took 2 arrows to the face and gave me a lot of leather patches.  
Later I also saw a jabberwock while driving to a lab, I now have 8 vacuum sealed bags of jabberwock meat 😛

Was hunting in the woods when i suddenly heard an explosion to the east of me, decided to check it out because i thought it may be an event or something going off. I am still unsure what happened, or why, but i think something managed to get an gas station to explode or something.

I like to imagine that it was the famous burning bear sent to kill me by the RNG, but who knows? 🙂

Speaking of nothing in particular, how do you upload images? 😕

I bet the explosion was just a deer jogging through a minefield.  
I had that happen several times when i hear an explosion and then few squares further i find a dead deer in the middle of minefield.

Dedman has been having a good spring but he got tired of the those bossy npc’s always yelling at him to drop his weapon. He smiled at and said don’t worry, I’m not going to hurt you. Then he bludgeoned her to death with his nailbat. But Dedman has the truth teller trait and now he feels miserable about lying to her. Music, alcohol, drugs, books, nothing is denting his -300 morale modifier. For three days he’s been sulking. I’m praying he doesn’t kill himself.

Just got one too when I traded an npc, got a hotplate and flame arrows, when the deal was over I also got a ‘none’, cannot ditch it at all.

What is bugging me more tho is since .7 it asks if I want to open trunks/boxes when I walk over them, is this supposed to happen now?

I have not tested this yet. But the issue seems to be the game does not make a distinction between prompts. There are prompts to “step on the land mine” and presumably “open the box”. The former is serious enough to warrant forcing a strict Y/N in my opinion. The latter should conveniently assume N if I press the key to move to another tile.

My last 5 .7 characters have all died horrible, horrible deaths. I can’t seem to step foot within a mile of a town without attracting zombies by the hundreds. I could go make an archery character and just up my skill by hunting wildlife, but that’s no fun. Charging into cities with reckless abandon is much more !!FUN!!.

In my first three .7 games I have conveniently found weapons on the first zombies I encounter, if not weapons it’s under armor(lifesaving shit).

Only thing I need from cities in the early game is a rubber hose, after that everything is a no contest when they come face to bonnet with my vehicle.

After busting my quad’s tire and injuring myself I decide to start a fight with a random NPC, she then continues to draw a hatchet and go to town on the dog tracking me while I stand beside it; after turning the dog inside out she drew a glass jar of Kompot and started to spew out manhacks which then turned allied to me so she spewed out more to defend herself, eventually she was killed by her own manhacks and I searched the body, find an inactive manhack and now I’m going to investigate this town with my small army of manhacks.
