What's Happening in YOUR Randomly-generated Apocalypse?

[quote=“Adragis029, post:12097, topic:47”]My Sheltered Survivor (who’s been chugging along for a couple months now) made the maximum possible number of holsters so her inventory volume would be freed up.
I think at the end of the spree (and raiding several gun basements) she had two fast draw holsters (one containing a LeMat revolver and the other her suppressed M1911), a back holster (containing her double-barrelled shotgun) two ankle holsters (one containing a .22 pistol I had far too much ammo for, the other containing a Glock 22), and a sheath containing her multitool.
It was coming in handy at a power substation crowded with zombie technicians, going full gun-kata and pulling a new gun for every one stolen, until my game crashed, sending me back to ages before.

sounds like my characters but i alslo have utility belt with best butchering knife what i can find, 2 scabbads and 2 sheaths

Making a mess :slight_smile:

While repairing Armour due to a Hulk attack a /friendly/ NPC came to my car, opened the backdoor and looted all my small items, said hi and attempted to run off…

Nice to know they can loot out of cars now…s

i would have run him over. might have to take psychopath if this is going to be a thing.

theft is acapital crime, and until it ownership really gets implimeted…

I havn’t found any scoops on this game so far, but cant they damage items (and also super noisy)

(got distracted while fixing this message… oops)

Scoops and spikes are amazing Scoops are 400 storage and can pick up stuff much better than you can. Though you can easily cheese up items while driving.

Spikes are very protective, and are great for ramming. I wish I knew what the differences between spikes and blades are…

As per the ‘2021 - Make America Even Safer Again act’ all cars have been outfitted special doorlocks, which in case of a national emergency, unlock all cars. To stop the terrorists of course. The same act also burned out all wifi transmitters, via a special chip installed mandatory on all wifi systems, as requested via the “Stop the terrorists from looking on reddit” act. As reddit is a well known terrorist and troll hideout in 2020.

It really would of been nice if the one who allowed NPCs to loot form cars at least added 2 options
-being able to claim a car and add the no allied pickup rule like you can with zones (so i can have any “slaves” also help me loot!)
and
-door locks; if your in the car, no unknown NPC can open the doors (and if they start smashing, make turrets attack em)

After having around 4 more NPC loot all my candy (and think they been eating it too…), cash cards(greedy little —), id cards, and other 0 vol items i just replaced all my doors with boards and leaving it and entering by having the car unaligned due to turning to have gaps to enter and exit…(my automatic laser turret seems to just ignore them…)

Day 0

First day in LinuxLand. Woke up to find my npc outside shotgunning zeds. Traded for a lighter, much useful than matches. Ran off and made a spiral around my starter house, looting steadily more useful things like armor and booze before finding a sports store. Ive always liked sports stores, and this one had a baseball bat and a bike helmet. With my special armaments, I can now 5 shot zeds, which coupled with a shopping cart I am mostly invincible at night. If Im careful. I ran from a suddenly horde that heard me fight suddenly tough zombie, and suddenly ran through a cluster of cars to lose them. I wish we could establish more fair rules for these hordes. I think theyve be dramatically improved, but can we establish a 25 tile buffer around the player or something? Maybe establish a simple pathing check to the edge of the bubble? If you cant path out from 2 cardinal directions, maybe you should path there. And that only needs to be 1 per horde, so I dont think its even as unreasonable as redrawing the game every time you walk into your car.

I found a working SUV right before dawn, something I havent done in the first week since… 60 days? realtime days, playing.
It took some finagling to get my stuff stored into it since suddenly horde showed up and I drove off and walk back and run away with the cart, but… it did work out in the end. So I found a school and a cemetery right behind it, so Im heading over there.

my first necropolis raid, decided to go to vault but i noticed that every tile is filled with irradiated wanderes so i decided to use my flamethover cbm to kill them (chain lighting was not good enought) fire killed them quickly but they droped something explosive…

IWs are bastards. Really. There are 5 types of them, each one stronger than the last.

Then there are the CNs.
shudder

I found that long range explosives worked best against them. I palyed with hordes on, and so I ran out of them and found huge hordes that would replenish each other with their smashing (i believe because they are ‘faction-zombie’) but manhacks strapped with grenades and c4 was good. so were flamehacks and acidhacks, but those are my mod’s…

I did okay with matchbombs and nailbombs too. I use nailbombs to kill secubots and turrets.
I also did okay with rapid fire guns, since the amount of lead put out helped with hordes.

so, Id go with exploding manhacks if you gottem, explosives if ya dont, and rapidfire lead if you dont have that. And try to kite them by playing with their nightvison range.

savescummed, decided to try this fire trick again but escaped quickly upstairs, after some explosions i decided to check how much are left there but i was on fire so i quickly escaped again and used repair nanobots to do not die (noticed that they no longer instantly heal) now i am barefooted and without underwear at least everything else survived
after waiting off my pain i decided to go downstairs, it was safe enought to use my diamond vorpal katana only to find that there is a lot more of irradiated wanderes, tried to sneak but everything is well lit so i used probality travel to avoid fighting, that was mistake, i used all my energy to get into vault controll room

now i am thinking how to escape vault and get to my car, if i get enought marloss berries i should be able to clear out this place with laser rifle

i have a plan how to escape this vault, right now im eating two by fours from vault control room, good that i have internal furnace

I have two friendly mutant-bee larvae following me around wherever I go - they’re slow, but they’re ADORABLE. And small.

dawww. You can make an army of them, and they will grow up. eventually

go to public works
several shocker zombies come out
run them down in truck
butcher one, drops joint torsion ratchet
butcher another, drops power storage

well i guess i know what bionics i’m installing first.

i decided to use diamond broadsword instead of diamond katana and its awesome! with fencing vault is easy to clear because im stopthrusting even with pain and my armor is strong enought to survive wanderer attack, that diamond katana was waste of resources…

Day 0

ohmyme wtf

so much death. grabbing appears to give bonus to chance tohit andpossible it robs movement points.

just 1 zed at zero skill with a trash weapon told me so.
worse, a hockey stick and a leather jacket and guyfawkesmask vs 4 zombies ended in complete curbstomping

after severa deaths at the doorway to my burningstarter house im adopting a new policy ofkite and kill instead of flee. throw on all the clothing i can to still be effective, even filthy … ones, and kill.

i cant seem to reliably run away from a horde because clusmy and i and freezing to death and i no flashlight.

i cannot begin to stress how important a flashlight is to midnight naked hobo hangover party zed edition. with a fashlight i can avoid zeds. with a flashlight i can clear rooms without fumbling along the walls. with a flashlight i can find cars.

so now i kite more, and break grabs when i expect to be in protracted melee
