Follow me young one and i ll show you chaos.
Think cluttered thoughts, think cluttered thoughts… ;_;
I’m now imagining you in the fetal position rocking back and forth muttering that… xP

I’m not going to lie, NPCs have become a good source of enjoyment for my easily entertained brain. They crack me up.
EDIT: I don’t even know how to upload images nevermind.
Basically an NPC was trying to climb itself and slipped every time so it went nowhere.
Huehuehue. Also? I kinda want to try to make a ballista. Gonna need some mechanics skill, I think. Guess I’ll see if I can find a town, and practice lockpicking.
It’s crazy, thus must be the most un-American small town ever because I can’t find a single set of unexpended munitions after a week and a half (I’m running on 30 day seasons.) I even broke into a gun safe, no ammo and only two rifles, found a dead npc or two who’d expended all their rounds in their last stand, even found two burnt out millitary APCs within a block of one another (one had crashed into a house!)
I know there has to be SOMETHING in that locked gun shop, but it’s become such a cluster-fuck nearby I’m afraid to visit again at this point.
About the only more amusing aspect of this character’s life than his using and discarding sets of loaded crossbows ‘pirate style’ is probably the constant shennanigans involving his malfunctioning bionics as a cyberjunkie.
Attempts at crafting or reading end up regularly resembling somehting like this.
I am about to become a biker peasant. I got one bike that has a leaky gas tank, and one with a front wheel dangerously close to breaking. Going with the one that won’t leak fuel. This is gonna be !!FUN!! ain’t it?
!!FUN!! indeed!
Random Dragon, Dave Steverdaverson the failmutant is actually kinda fun to play. I mean, shit it’s hard to get good defensive gear, but he’s got so many points to work with, he’s a different sort of minmaxed. I plopped a lot into base stats and the rest into computers/first aid/dodge.
Dave may be an abomination to science but holy damn if he can’t hack shit and install all of the bionics.
And then promptly die because he has the hp of a toddler and no pants. It’s still largely turrets killing him. He can’t run for shit the second he gets hurt, and THERE ARE NO BANDAGES IN THIS ENTIRE LAB HOLY WOW.
Huehuehue. Glad that’s going well. I find it infinitely hilarious that tentacle arms, despite preventing you from wearing gloves, doesn’t conflict with long fingernails or webbed hands.
why there no phase beasts in this :P… basically those black panthers with tentacles on their back
If we had a displacement mutation as well, sure.
Also, found a car on the road I picked, so my bike is now good on fuel. Still, if I hit ANYTHING I’m gonna be walking home. It’s a wonder Ragnar can even drive this thing, so repairing it is right out.
EDIT: There’s a third mansion and a crash site on this road. Still a little bit more of it to follow, but it loops around to that first mansion I already explored, I’m gonna be pissed.
EDIT 2: Forked spear, excellent against a mi-go, multiple blobs, and 2 amoebic molds.
EDIT 3: What. What? WHAT?
EDIT 4: I am now displacing and countering zombies with a forked spear (which isn’t supposed to be compatable with medieval swordsmanship) while playing a guitar.
EDIT 5: Jackpot. Awl pike. Yeah, it’s slower than the forked spear. But it has 3 reach instead of 2. There’s also ornamental plate armor, but I don’t really need it when I have 3 reach.
EDIT 6: How does this mansion NOT have a bathroom?
EDIT 7: Finally found a town, and a public works.
I spawned on the edge of a forest and a river and a extensive swamp. The npc in the EVAC shelter wasn’t playing ball. So my hobo moseyed down to the mansion a ways south to score some clothing and some supplies. MUCH needed supplies to get through the coming hangover phase. it resulted in a bloodbath of smacking zombies with a improvised crowbar and strategic use of fires and bushes. Wearing mostly clothes made from rags and sheets. mercifully was able to pick up some clothing and loot most of the mansion before a small horde descended upon the scene. Ran like crazy through the other side of the mansion. Sidestepping a wasp narrowly. Was able to get a frying pan and leather items to salvage and some stuff to wear. The only problem was the entire area to the north was blocked now by zombies by the river going all the way off east . A HUGE horde apparently steamrollering through the region.
So I hightailed it and wound up sleeping in the swamps aways from the still pretty full of zombies mansion. Slept rough in a pile of blankets. Scavenged the parts I needed and boiled up water and prepared meat to sit through the detox period. Now build an improvised shelter lined with several football jerseys I managed to scavenge. Got tailoring to 3 and working on reinforcing and making gear. And a trusty knife spear made from scrap metal from a few fridges I broke down. Slowly thinning the area of surviving dead and working on raiding the mansion for more rags to tailor with. The Mansion seems to keep drawing attention from passing zombies. Don’t think I’ll be relocating there. As I don’t have the gear to go on an extended murderfest when I only have a camp fire drill to set fire to things with currently. At very least food and water won;t be a problem for some time. If I can get some damn tools I might just try and build up a shack in the swamp for my hobo to live in. Till then it’s the improvised shelter. SO many hordes though out on the roads and near buildings right now though.
I always imagined it like the tentacle arms ended in little webbed starfish blorbs with more suckers, instead of hands.
Maybe. Or it’s possible that the arms are noodly tendrils that end in malformed handlike things.
In any case, I really should stop reaching the point were I get bored and quit. >.<
Very likely this is dynamic spawn derping around. There’s a check to make sure monsters don’t spontaneously appear in sight of the player, but there’s no such check for NPCs. On the other hand it shouldn’t have spawned in the house anyway… hrmm, possibly z-level related.
Organize!
Organize!
Organize!
Organize!
Organize!
Metal racks! Counters! Tables! Lockers! Bookshelves! But not chairs, because chairs are for sitting on! Let no item clutter up the floor! Beware the rivtech short shotgun because it uses the handgun skills despite being a shotgun!
To better understand the Azrad way of organizing, and to prove that absolute order is just as insane as complete chaos, here’s a small glimpse of how I organize items.
Food:
-ingredients, like sugar, flour, etc
-cannibal meals; amoral aspic, jerk jerky, and all the other cannibal food that won’t rot
-food that will rot (either in a minifridge, or preferably on the basement of an ice lab. Fruit, vegetables, animal meat, human meat, cooked meals stored in separate containers)
-food that won’t rot; jerky, aspic, pickled meat and vegetables
-MREs
-bottles of clean water
-drinks like soda, mineral water, tea.
-booze (except for wooden barrels of whiskey, which go in a separate container)
-candy and misc. food like crackers; basically items which don’t fill you up that much.
-dehydrated meat, fish, fruit, and vegetables.
-stuff gathered from foraging, like wild herbs.
-not quite food, like tanbark, dehydrated tainted meat, chitin powder.
-honey comb
-wax
-royal jelly
-ant eggs
-spider eggs
Weapons
-handguns
-shotguns
-rifles
-submachine guns
-launchers
-bows and crossbows, spearguns, etc
-throwing weapons
-normal ammo
-shotgun shells
-exotic ammo like fusion packs and hydrogen
-launcher ammo
-arrows and bolts, pebbles and bearings, etc
-melee weapons
-gun mods
Chemicals
-ammonia
-bleach
-salt water
-gasoline
-diesel
-all other chemical stuff, might expand later
Spare parts
-spare parts
-stuff like batteries, duct tape, nails
-bones, both human and animal
-plastic chunks
-casings
-solder, silver… basically stuff that would be components for ammo
I always dump all the stuff i have in a random container (ends up to be cargo space eventually, when i find enough cargo carriers ) in my vehicle and in the center of it i have an atomic lamp. This way i have access to all ingredients and tools while standing there, without needing to move around.
Played a little Classical zombies. Put max points into strength because I could. Found a sledge hammer on day two. Slowly survived more and more. Eventually got into a large fight. Found that 20 strength and a sledgehammer means that zombies literally explode into piles of meat. I don’t even have to butcher things anymore.
Then I got turreted. But I was ‘THE HAMMERDOZER’ until then. You will be remembered Slarty McUrist.
