THE ZOMBIES THEY ARE COMING OMG...

NeonSpyder · July 2005

Where is this supposed urban dead forums? could someone link me? there seem to be so many, and i don't know which is the right one. i am afraid, and clumped up with about a dozen random people AND A ZOMBIE in a firehall

when i first got there i got the damn zombie down to like 1hp but some how it's come back to 50hp and i dont have any AP and it's been there for like 8 hours now -_-

stupid zombie.

Gwahir · July 2005

you took it down to 1 hp, someone killed it, he stood up again, you can't kill zombies permanently...

ZeroByte · July 2005

I'm currently writing a javascript so I can find stuff on the world map easier. Basically it will darken the main map and show me only the buildings types that I want. I'll post the fruits of my labor later.

NeonSpyder · July 2005

well why didn't they drag the corpse outside?... oh.. it's prolly got that "open door" hax thing going for it dont it... bastard zombie.

Condizzle · July 2005

Well I'm helping with the fort liberation in Peppardville with Confizzle. I have a few pistol clips but I'm out of movement points. There are 5 or so zombies in there at the time of this post, but I closed the doors.

Edit: Is there already and IRC channel?

Gwahir · July 2005

is this zombie horde I hear about an actual horde of people moving about, or is it something game generated? If it's game generated, then isn't it an excuse to wipe the server and start over?

Omegaman · July 2005

It would appear that every single freaking zombie has been logged. I would seriously have to kill a fellow human to get a non-logged specimen.

Gwahir · July 2005

I got 2 today... so sorry for hampering you further, besides, isn't it on a day by day basis?

NeonSpyder · July 2005

Don't... kill the humans?

The_Finch · July 2005

This game seems an exercise in watching zombies run amok. I had two living characters which are both dead now and are just crappy versions of my zombie character. You won't find living characters that can put up a fight because they're too busy hiding and spending hours and hours worth of action points on trying to scrounge up ammo and meds.

I think I might not be sticking with this.

Condizzle · July 2005

Ah crap, a zombie is attacking me near the fort and I'm out of points. Is anyone else close to the fort in Peppardville to help?

Now that I'm actually paying attention to what is going on this game is actually pretty good.

Gwahir · July 2005

killing the zombies won't do anything, we have to bring them back to the living!

what about that zombie horde question of mine?

I dunno, my fireman can kick a good chunk of zombie ****. axe = no need for ammo scrounging.

UltimaGecko · July 2005

I had 6AP, I managed to cross a street, enter a NecroTech building, and find a GPS and a NecroTech syringe. I'd say that's pretty good (especially the syringe). It's too bad the GPS is basically useless and I can't use the syringe yet anyway.

And I'm kind of wondering what the point of the game is if zombies can just get up right away after being killed. Does it at least take 20 AP or something besides "Stand up and kill some more, since you're the equivalent of invincible." Which seems pointless (just like AP costs for talking).

NeonSpyder · July 2005

Well i believe the point is to turn the zombies back into humans. not just kill them again and again.

Theslan · July 2005

The problem with that, Neonspyder, is that the zombies-turned-human can spend 2 AP to go back to a zombie. Go into building->jump window->die. Zombie again.

Making them human needs a lot more AP and luck as well. I fear that the survivors' days are numbered.

NeonSpyder · July 2005

you can jump out windows in this game?

It would be nice if someone hosted this on a non crappy host.

A better version's been posted about 5 times. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' />

ZeroByte · July 2005

I based it off that. Try clicking the map legend. No more scouring the eye searing overview to look for the nearest building of interest near you.

Omegaman · July 2005

Excellent work, ZeroByte.

NEO_Phyte · July 2005

new update. there is now a zombie upgrade that prevents revevification, and alsow has some effect on DNA analization

Theslan · July 2005

Well, that's it... the survivors are so dead now.

Zombies just got a trait that equals no revivification.

I hope survivors get something that makes zombies stay dead for like.. 20-30 AP. Or something that'll take that much for them to stand back up.

Snidely · July 2005

It should definately take longer for zombies to revive. 10AP, maybe.

Droggog · July 2005

Graaaaaagh!

Hmm my human soldier just died. Anyone cares to revive me? My corpse is laying outside Darbey Cinema, in Rhodenbank.

"Drogg McGog"

Mhrm?

Omegaman · July 2005

Dude, we should get EVERYONE, and I mean EVERY SINGLE HUMAN to come to one place for a final standoff. That would be sooo aweosme.

NeonSpyder · July 2005

I repeat my previous request for a <b>link to the forums of this urban dead thing and also for an IRC # if such a thing exists. </b> thank you.
