What's Happening in YOUR Randomly-generated Apocalypse?

Since the current world I was in had no wander spawns, I regenerated a new world with wander spawns, and Joshua Young started anew. So he found a mansion, as he was trying to clear it, a massive horde appears to the south. He high-tails it the North-west, and discovers a hotel and a mansion in a forest road. After battling it with the zombies in the hotel, killing what he can by the bushes, I decided that he needed to sleep as it was getting a bit dark. I kill off the zombies in the southern corner of the mansion, and I try to go to sleep in the bed of one of the rooms. Can’t sleep, so I get him to wait till dawn, I do, and when he ventures outside I hit “m”.
I see a large horde forming a crescent around the mansion, and so Joshua runs again like mad, in the south-western direction where the horde is thinnest. Dodging the zombies he sees, he was able to escape the zombie horde by running into a bit of forest.

After running for hours, I found a large power substation, prepped it up, boarded all the windows. Now, since food really isn’t that worrying, I’am going to level up mechanics, and try to find a motorcycle so I can repair it.

Found a rapier. Could not resist the urge to write on it ‘The devil!’

[quote=“Wally-kun, post:4019, topic:47”]Well it wasn’t recent but looking at someof this stuff inspires me to retell my dearest Wendy’s final moments.

She found a solar-powered car, and it worked. She is, however, not skilled at driving. In fact in my head she’s very small, and pushing the pedals and steering is hard simultaneously, even slowly. She did manage to run down one of those lizard red football things that melted AND a blur-hand thingy, and she only almost flipped the thing over once. Pretty good, I’d say!

She drove it to town to start looting, trailing along the road in her new ride at a comfortable speed just above zombie speed yet just slow enough to both nudge out of the way of wreckages and correct sudden swerves in her path. At one point she tried to clumsily run down something, only to realize she had passed everything. She nosed forward past a house, so the road going south was exposed.

Chicken walker.

Saw a laser beam. I imagine she glanced down and the “ABORT” sequence tripped in her brain, and she up and just released the controls right there to bail the fuck out. Slammed into a wreckage directly in front of her.

The chicken walker fired its grenade launcher a second before that, and I swear it tried to lead her off. Thing expoded the wreckage instead of her, shattering the windshield, raining metal fucking everywhere, and then its minigun opened up and started to punch holes in the concrete and the roof of the car. Meanwhile she’s freaking the fuck out cuz fire and metal and hot bits peppering and glass and LOUD and gotta run gotta go go GO GO! Finally kicks the door open. Motions in preparation to leap out of the car and run like hell.

Second grenade lands. Hits the right-hand door; shatters the car, instantly kills her. In my head I saw the shattered left half of the solar car rolling up the road, firy bits of debris scattering every which way.

Eerie silence. A faint scent of cooked hair. Something sizzling in the wreckage.

…not gonna lie, it was kind of amazing.[/quote]

This is the beautiful stuff I talk about…

My rather well equipped guy was just returning to his base with his car after a “please kill my mother” and looting run when a npc calls for him. My guy stops outside his base and walks up to talk to the stranger.

They stopped a few meters apart and my guy asks what he wants.

  • “Drop your nodachi!”, he calls out, totting a rather unimpressive machete himself.

My guy refuses, and the npc starts to (either bravely or foolishly) rush towards my guy, looking for a fight!

When he gets close, the nodachi moves like a blur in my guys hands, we are talking movie stuff here, and slices the robber repeatedly before sending him reeling backwards with a critical strike. The guys armor saves him from instant death, but this beating only just started!

After creating some space in between him and the robber, throwing-knifes hails over the poor sod before he can even react, several knifes puncturing and cutting his body, with the last one hitting his arm presumably, making him drop his machete.

You might think that the poor robber might want to give up now, or in fact, should be laying in a pool of blood, but in a honorable and desperate move, he reaches for his… Sealed jar of pickled fish! DUN, DUN, DUUUUUUN!!!

By now, my guy starts to feel sorry for him, and decides to go in for the kill. He darts up towards the fish-armed robber and quickly attacks him, hitting the robbers left arm as he tries to fend of the attack, and in return tries to fight back, but misses. Another vicious slice hits the robbers right arm, followed up by two critical strikes in a row, sending the robbers now lifeless body flying backwards, after which it hits the ground with a thud.

Michel Bergeron will be remembered for his courage and stubbornness, and a billboard will be raised to honor the brave soul who raised a jar of pickled fish against a man with a 2 meter long sword.

This made my cataclysm day.

Picture wall incoming!


EDIT: If you wonder about my cars front, SOMEONE had left a log outside my barn/garage during construction…

XD

So i was searching for a usb drive with hackpro desperatly in the local labs … no success… and now irandomly stumble upon one randomly lieing on the street in the remains of a already rotten zombie … mkay taking it.

What should I name it? :D[/quote]

Why did I turn random NPCs on again?

I got mugged twice today and got mugged twice in a row by NPCs with ranged weapons, and was unable to convince them to leave me alone. I was out collecting rocks for a fireplace and wasn’t carrying much valuable but they tried to make off with my pocket watch and I wasn’t having that. Beat them to death with my Capoeira (incredible martial art by the way) but I took a wooden crossbow bolt to the chest and then several .22 bullets from the second guy, ended up with a single / bit of torso HP when it was all over.

After burning down my farmhouse to rid myself of a zombie bear infestation, I decided to go see what life in the big city was like. I murdered the neighbors and picked a nice house to move into. There was some cat food in the kitchen and a stray outside, so I went out and made a new friend.

This food compelled the cat to kill everything that it previously peacefully cohabited with. It wasn’t suicidally crazed, though; this cat knew exactly what it was doing. It dodged every single swipe and bite dished out to it.

Think the cat’s totally fucked?

It’s not.

And so the cat patrolled the streets with all the merciless brutality of a typical cop while I built a bike over the next few days. In the southern part of the city I found a Thriller and its entourage, snapped a few pictures of them, and let them be for a while until I got bored. On my bike, I kited the Thriller into an amoebic mold, and, to my surprise, the dancers didn’t become enraged Hulks. They were confused at their leader’s voluntary, drastic change in lifestyle as a blob, and not as a martyr like usual. Most just dispersed aimlessly, although some loyal ones stayed with blob Thriller to beat the shit out of a van for reasons I don’t know.

Some were the targets of ineffective molotovs, too.

The next day, I notified cop cat about the ruckus to the south, and while following me to the scene, it charged at a different amoebic mold. Hardly set back by the misfortune of becoming goo, my friend went after a dancer, but of course could do nothing about it.

So now it’s pretty much a party in the street and everyone’s having a grand old time.

Next I might do some science by welding a gas tank to a car’s grille driving straight at a building, but bailing out just before it hits. Not sure what else there is to do here.

do not give it much fuel because explosion can kill you (full gas tank make bigger explosion than your screen!)

There was a wandering horde near my substation shelter today, including a hulk. I thought I could kiss my wonderful chain link fence goodbye but an NPC charged it and threw a molotov at the hulk point fucking blank - they both burnt to death in the flames.

Thanks, insert-NPC-name-here. I will never forget your brave sacrifice.

That’s a lot bigger than a mininuke. You sure about that?

Yep, in CDDA a gas tank makes a bigger explosion that a nuke.


Note: This was a SMALL gas tank.

Remindes me of the time when i forgot to lie down that nuke i activated.

My eyes took a critical

Wow and I thought APC gas tanks in O.A were bad.
P.S who the fuck made the gas tanks external when they wanted to explode in a larger explosion than a mininuke when tapped on a bit too hard.
