What's Happening in YOUR Randomly-generated Apocalypse?

well i like to be walking arsenal alslo multiple guns allow me to do not do much reloads and i do not need to think about making my gun universal or adjust my tactics to situation alslo that stuff take less volume than ammo (when in holster)

VICTORY BREAKDANCE


EDIT: I just repaired it. Entirely. After installing extra headlights to illuminates the surroundings of course.

My old character, Gattsu, died from lack of control computer prompt (those damned skitterbots).
So, I made Killgattsu.
And looted Gattsu’s gear.
Then found power armor…


Found a charge rifle in a lab I think, it’s pretty cool.

Attempted gun assault on power armor is not kindly welcomed.
Of course, this is fairly deep into the game, atleast for me, this aint day 1 lol.

Going 280km/h in a 6100~kg APC is not nice when it starts going slideways… into the trees.
But it’s so stronk, I didnt even get fucking hurt!

I lol’d

My unwilling mutant lab escapee is still living. 51/91 days of spring past. Found a katana to go with the fusion gun I looted from the lab. During slaughterfests i found a working military truck and am in the process of rebuilding it into a heavy duty RV. Just need to loot/make a few parts for the kitchen buddy and i have all the utilities for it. I have to say lighted Aisles are amazingly useful for vehicles. Also added an electric engine for the truck and some solar panels. With a third full tank of diesel to tide over in meantime. On a hunt for higher grade electronics books. And the Fusion gun is so fun to take out large mobs of zombies clustered close or hulks. Took an acetylene torch to the lab doors so now I can come and go as I please and loot the depths of the lab for more chemicals. Other than that it;s arming up, killing npcs with the truck and mounted a .50 cal machinegun on the truck too. I also have had to deal with a cold 3 times and influenza 2 despite being comfortable and not wet. Likely due to the crap initial diet i had whilst getting established. Mostly junk food supplemented by some meal, fluid ballers and a habitual MRE before I got more places clear for looting. Once I get more spare composite plating I am going to widen the Main body of the vehicle and mount some turrets Also so much more looting of town to be done. This city is HUGE.

decided to actually give a mutant char a try; so of course the hard way: elfa lab challrnge.

finally got out and am at the “…now what do i do!” stage. which is further thab i expected…

I FOUND OUT HOW TO EDIT JSON FILES AFTER RESEARCHING…
And in other news, I had the most hilarious dream yet… Twice

“You wonder if you could find one of those ‘salmon runs’, or if they were just a legend…”,“Ah, the wolf-slaying dream again. That’s a good one…”

I love the Bear mutation pathway now.

We aim to please. Glad post-thresh and/or code-diving is working out for you.

I feel like quoting that YouTube video from the eighties that showed you how to use the internet.

Anyhow, I decided to spend the rest of my week trying to make a mod similar to medieval Europe.

I got my first flashlight!

On Day 17 of Spring.

Yeah … this has been a brutal start. Fragile is a brutal trait to have in the early game, especially with fast zombies, and I have been Starving once, Famished twice, Dehydrated three times, had a cold, couldn’t sleep because I needed to forage through the forest until I was literally passing out, had to eat cooked creep (or rather, forgot that I could craft a pot, but I probably would have had to eventually), and spent about 10 days trying in vain to break through to the city from the North. On day 13 decided to say “screw it”, relocated to a bunker on the east of the city. (was able to take everything I had gathered in one duffel bag!), fought my way through a regional school. During that time, I had to eat 2 stacks of uncooked hot dogs, and got a -80+ morale penalty from that alone. But now I can take out waves of ten or more regular zeds at a time, with my bare hands! Dragon style is OP at high skill levels, I think. (Although … once I realized this, I went on a rampage through the school, and only stopped when I realized I was at -150 morale from ‘Guilty from Killing’.)

Once I get to this grocery store, I think my run of terrible luck will have finally run out, as I won’t be wondering each day if I will have the privilege of eating today. And then I can use all the books I have gathered to make a hotplate ^.^

Was minding my own business when I notice a cat and hulk thats chasing the cat. Cats heading to my direction. At this point I’m going “OH GOD OH GOD” since my character only has armor on his arms and feet, knife spear, no throwing weapons, no bows and not a single firearm.

As I start to divert my direction from where cat is running it just keeps turning to me ever so slightly. As I almost get out of sight range cat dies and hulk starts heading to my direction. I start to fire every bush and flower in small radius around me hoping to use them as a slowing and damaging barrigades. Fight begings in middle of blazing bushes and I mananage to bring hulk close to half life without no problem what so ever.

And then, it start to rain. Rain turns to thunder and hulk puches me sending me flying past still burning bushes. Rain starts to douse fires and hulk, now burned and stabbed to half life starts heading towards me again. I think that “If I’m going to die. I’m going down while fighting!” and put couple more bushed between me and the hulk. Hulk does not manage to get another hit on me and I bring it down hacking critical after critical making hulk stuble all over the field.

Looks like my character continues to live, for now.

I don’t get it… why is everyone so afraid of hulks? If you don’t have proper equipment then yea, but they aren’t even difficult to a decent ‘early-mid game’ character that has any kind of ranged weapon. Especially if the character has any kind of speed.

You kind of answered you own question. Try to fight hulk with starter melee weapon only with 1 day scrapped resources and see how many characters do you lose to a hulks. Also note that special attacks used to always hit so hulk would ALWAYS hit you when they would use their smash.

Most of the stuff in game aren’t really that bad if you have ranged weapon especially if you got firearm. Skill rust also effects a lot since if you turn it off your character turns fast to a (mostly) invincible killing machine. With the static spawn game is more about surviving the “collect basic supplies” phase and less about constant struggle of having to deal with zombies. I personally have player the game much much more with dynamic spawns than static spawns. I do have to say a lot of stuff has changes since Whales released the source to public :wink:

I’ve been starting infected failed cyborg lately. Outside my starting house I found a car and while driving towards the hospital found a minefield the wrong way. After that I found some antibiotics and first aid kits then left in a different car. Went down the road a ways and found a motel. Luckily a wolf was nearby and took out all the zombies for me. Now I’m trying to run it over with my car for its tasty tasty meat.

Arent you a little ungrateful?

huh ok… I guesss yea. Would definitely be murder to RP caracters

So, apparently, either hand equipment weight now affects your punches or I am really damn lucky as my power armor deals constant 50+ DMG per punch. With centipede style.

Imagine the DPS.

the dps would be something arround 8~ *dreams

Having too much fun with a Pneumatic Cannon (Basically an automated version of the slingshot cannon) and remote vehicle controls.

I’m sitting on the island I found before, and some triffids had apparently moved in nearby. I loaded up my cannon with rocks, went out on a three tile pedal boat and use my vehicle controller to target them from the safety of the water while they were off screen. Then my cannon fires and blows them away.

For fun, I targeted a bluegill that was unfortunate enough to have surfaced nearby. My cannon sniped it with a rock from 70 tiles away and gibbed it instantly.

For some odd reason, it hates fish. Every time I take aim at a fish, it hits. At anything else, it usually misses a few times first.
