I always find erotic novels in the school libraries. One of those moments where you just back out of the library and try not to think about it again after.
I thought kids have had enough smartphones on hands already to download whatever hardcore porno they want.
Hmm. But I have yet to see a smartphone in this game. Only PDAs with torch apps and dumb mobile phones.
How about lifting whatever ban on such literature, admitting it to school libraries and thus making it less desirable just because it’s not forbidden now?
Finally managed to make the time in order to play some over the weekend. Operation ‘Get Off My Lawn’ was a smashing success. After sneaking past the hordes that surrounded my bunker storehouse I dug up and dusted off my trusty modded Saiga-12, loaded up the truckload of explosive shotgun shells I’d been crafting for a rainy day like this and went to town. The area surrounding my home is now full of explosively pulped zombie corpses just as the morning sun starts to crest over the horizon, time to spend the new day building a palisade wall and spike pit around my secured property to deal with the additional hordes that are surely going to filter in with all the racket I’ve caused.
This world of mine is becoming boring. I have several vehicles to mow whatever I encounter into the ground, lots of ammo, a nice stockpile of food, a lot of other crap.
Raided a lab. I didn’t expect much but the RNG decided to reward me with a nice containment full of CBMs. Now I’m full of electronics too.
Drove past the local regional school school on my mototerminator. Met a rather large crowd of zombie kids. Okay, time to do a REAL field test for the mounted minigun… Wow. It wasted the whole crowd bar just one child. Off my lawn.
Ooh. If the M134 is even half as awesome as the Mk. 19, I’ll have to toy with it…
Nothing like using the onboard chemistry set of a mobile meth lab to cook some chocolate waffles.
I have not given it a thorough testing yet but it looks promising. Perhaps I’ll drive somewhere else where there are large and preferably dense crowds of more tough adversaries.
Interestingly enough, Mark 19 loaded with 40mm fragmentation rounds seems to perform awfully against even the most basic SMG turrets. I don’t know how much ammo I wasted on one before getting out and blowing it to bits with my M4.
Fragmentation and incendiary both are failing against robots in general now. ;A;
A very sad day, I had to realize that today as well, wanted to break into a lab, turret in the hallway, threw grenades and pipe bombs, and nothing happened ;-; my character nearly died.
I seriously don’t understand that decision. Incendiary can, if it’s anything like napalm, reach around ~1500°C, which is just enough to melt Iron (melting point ~1510°C) and steel (melting point ~1310°C apparently…huh), and the electronics inside the turret/robot would begin to malfunction at even lower temperatures ;-; And Frags >can< damage iron/steel/electronics as well, if not with the shrapnel, then with the explosion itself…
Plus it means now you kill tanks with dinky little fletchettes, not with HE. :V
I think it’s less of a decision and more of an unintended consequence of people working on how explosions work. Give it a couple revisions and I’m sure they’ll work it out.
Yay.
Still, if we had HEAT rounds that had a decent ka-boom but also gave the projectile itself high damage and piercing…

Anti Tank ammo? Well, there are probably only a couple of guns which would use such ammunition, so mod it in! 
But yes, those would be nice. Preferably if they only spawn in military places, that should make them rare and hard to get, considering how dangerous those milspec turrets are currently
We do have rockets that you’d expect you use anti-tank rounds instead of pure HE.
And even the 40mm comes in a HEDP that should fare better against armor than pure HE.
EDIT: In any case, 40mm HE works wonders on zombies. Slowly turning the necropolis into a ghost town.
EDIT 2: R.I.P. Killah Kruisah, its front wheel busted from hitting a wrecked car. Had to fend off the resulting group of undead with my .50 rifle.
I have discovered in a fairly recent build, that lighting fire to fire extinguishers does not cause them to rupture and plode. The insides might put out fires, but it’s still a metal canister of compressed chemicals.
I have also discovered that lighting those little plutonium cell batteries recovered from (skitterbots? hackbots?) lab robots also does not cause them to explode. In fact, I think it’s just consuming them as an acceptable fire fuel??
tl;dr I am too depressed ingame to craft anything intended to be used as an explosive. I’m getting tired of resorting to mutated arms for food while I ponder new ways to take out the lab entrance door, it is only compounding the depression. I have bomb-precursor materials and books to learn from, I just need a longer-lasting light source and maybe something stronger than cigarettes and an issue of glamopolitan to get me through the bad lab meals.

heat nix viel bum . I heard of ap he rounds though, which would do what you are imagining heat as i think.
¿Que? I’m referring to High Explosive Anti Tank rounds. Basically they use a shaped charge warhead to get more armor penetration than pure high explosive would allow.
Character has a cold, and I have a cold. I wish we had royal jelly that’s just as effective in real life. Urgh. I think I’ll just do some R&R for now.
Removed the world. It’d been enough.
Wasted a whole bunch of characters in each new world that followed. Whether being overwhelmed by zeds, beaten by a brute, having met a jolly gang of thugs (fuck that Belgian pistol and its allegedly armour-piercing rounds. It could not deal with a scarcely-clad thug idiot. Ridiculous), drowning with a shocker brute on my tail, being done by wolves at the RC entrance — the cataclysm has claimed them all.
Boy, I suck at this game.
Those thug bastards were quite, quite tough actually. Besides taking several clips from the Five-SeveN, they weathered a nearly direct hit from M-72, several landmines explosions and numerous attacks by local wildlife.

NPCs can be tanks sometimes. O.o
Also…recursive cold. The fourth wall will not protect you.
