What's Happening in YOUR Randomly-generated Apocalypse?

[quote=“EkarusRyndren, post:1298, topic:47”]Finally found and bothered to pick up a children’s book, it didn’t depres me, just reminded me of the The Dark Tower series…

Thankee sai. You’ve sniffed out the book’s other purpose.

Charlie the Choo-Choo, anyone?

…now I want a gamemode where I play as the bear.[/quote]

Only proper response is an ursine mutation tree.

…It’d make for an interesting encounter that’s for sure, though I don’t think anyone would get the “riddles” though.

EDIT: When it rains, it pours. Got a zed bite that got past the fixable stage and needed antibiotics, wandered towards a Doctor’s office I’d yet to clear. On the way there I found a dead scientist group, grabbed their things and in the group was a teleporter. As I was getting ready to take the front door I saw a huge horde of zombies outside including a hulk, decided to use the back. Got to the doctor’s office, hacked the backdoor open but in the process alerted the horde. Grabbed the Antibiotics and tried to bail when the hulk showed up and proceeded to reduce me to raw hamburger, but still alive. Activated the teleporter and got away, barely.

Went back to my MFB, grabbed my Remington 700, an Underbarrel launcher for it, my 40mm Shot, a laser sight, and a scope. Got all that sorted out and went to kill that hulk. Half way there a pack of wolves spotted me, had to use my Nord or risk alerting the horde.

The wolves nearly killed me. My legs and arms were broken in the attack (form bleed out) and while frantically cutting up my dear beret to keep from bleeding out I noticed something:

“You smell and taste mushrooms”

I see you had an extremely bad case of teleporter Teleglow.

:slight_smile:

I spawned in a shelter in the middle of the woods… with a Jabberwock about ten tiles away. The ever-overconfident static NPC lasted a single round. I took off into the woods, trying to start fires and lead him into obstacles, but he kept gaining on me. I spotted a gas station to the north. I ran for it, thinking I could blow him up using the gas from the pumps. I ran up to a second row pump and tried to activate it. I suddenly realized what a horrible mistake I had made, because the thing ran right through the fucking pump like an evil Kool-Aid man. I had a couple turns to contemplate the irony before the chain reaction started and obliterated me. Fucking Jabberwocks, man.

[tt]New game and first steps into town did not go well. The local residents did not take kindly to strangers. Should of known a zombie spawn rate of 5 wouldn’t be a good idea.[/tt]

Appropriate dialogue is appropriate. I was going to just close this without saving because I had it sitting open while I was distracted and it wasn’t a very good map, but I think I’ll keep going.

Hmm…I’ll look into that once I’ve got the four I proposed coded.

Keep getting murdered by stuff just out of the shelter or stuff running into the shelter while i’m crafting some starting gear. Last 5 deaths were to a bear, a zombear, a bunch of coyotes and basement Z’s.

All I wanted to do was take some aspirin and dry off…

T.T

I turned a corner to go deal with the car party and 20 zombie dogs come from nowhere and run me down. Ate a whole bunch of coke, got to a window, killed the dogs. The dogs chased me past some crates. I smash a crate open and what do you know? MININUKE

I head back to the car party and begin corralling them. By this point every zombie in the city is rushing at me. I get them balled up decently, and throw the (active) mininuke. The explosion was epic.

Mininukes make alot of noise. I killed probably about 50 zombies with it, and a hundred more come to get me. And I threw the nuke from an alleyway because I’m a genius.

I start dashing through houses, dropping C4 and dynamite behind me as I enter, and lighting the houses on fire (with an artifact) as I leave.

It was a good day.

Just noticed a ? moving about inside a cube van. Opened the back and a Bobcat jumped out and killed me.[/quote]
Shit, who let black hat guy into the cataclysm?

By the way, Black Road has nothing to do with zombie surprise basements. They’re just a thing that happens now. If you go down the stairs you’ll generally hear them moving around in there so you can get prepared before you open the doors.

Zombears shouldn’t be starting at the start of the game - is this under normal settings?

Zombears show up on like… Day 3 at the earliest I’ve seen, spring.

I’ve had zombears spawn after I craft a spear. Any spear.

[tt]Before the newest experimental build, I’ve had zombears spawn just about right outside the evac shelter on more than one occasion. Not now though.[/tt]

For some reason it was starting me at day 5 of spring.
Deleted that world started a (few) new one(s) I start more normal and managed to get chars going beyond being murdered out of the shelter.

Dot dot dot.

Pull the pin.

I dare ya.

A single children’s book seems to make a LOT of smoke when set afire.
