So, a new game after 2-3 months. Yesterday’s experimental.
Static+wander spawns, static+wander NPC’s, item & monster & NPC spawn rates around 0.5-0.6.
Starting up at heli crash scenario (too OP imo).
It starts interesting: I spawn in between two large towns, surrounded by zeds and hordes.
Found a car, drove north to the local refugee center, thinking that there’s room to hide and people to help me fight.
Results: After killing maybe 100-200 zeds (and i helped quite a bit - the starting weapon is very good and has enough ammo, also pulped countless corpses), the horde still stands strong, while many refugees are dead. Me, being half dead, very hungry and very thirsty i had to flee. Good thing that the night fell, so i managed to slip further North. Also i found a fire axe at the Refugee Center carnage. This ups my survival chances. Even if slow-ish, this is a strong weapon.
Found a house with a garage to use as a base, and lucked out to find a wheelbarrow early. Now looting around at night, slowly whittling away at lone zeds until it will be safe to move during the day. I’ve managed to kill a zed master, but there is still a Hulk around somewhere, and big clusters of zeds at certain spots, making exploration risky. No tank bots or chicken walkers yet.
I still hope to clear the refugee center and rescue the unlucky survivors over there, but there’s lots of zeds around. I do hear gunshots when i come close though, so some might actually survive. I think we fought all the of initial horde in there, and what was left despawned inside the building. Maybe i will use explosive force against them to press the point.
