Title: Come and fight zombies.
Post by: DavidXBrunt on 04 April, 2006, 03:11:24 PM
Howdo. This might be known to you all already but I've found a simple but fun interactive zombie game online. It's basically akin to the old adventure games of old 'Get Gold', 'Sing about Gold' and that sort of thing, but worth a look. So far I've managed to avoid zombies, lose my mobile, find a first aid kit, find a hiding place, and swap messages with someone else.

Anyway, come and have a look, nad if you join up I'll tell you where my safehouse is.

Been playing for a while, got two characters going WoDMaN and Wod01 - I'm pretty much a zombie on WoDMaN all the bloody time, and scampering around with Wod01 just trying to survive.  Bloody zombies are getting stronger, and now werewolves and vampires too....

Just discovered you can only hit the site 160 times a day, which is a shame as I was playing multiple characters. D'oh. Still, I'll just have to concentrate on the first character and start again in the morning when I should have plenty of turns. If anyone wants to find me I'm in the warehouse to the west of Maul Police Station.

Anyone want to work out how to start a group? Necronauts, perhaps?

I'm just off to FP to pick up 2K and the Meg then I'm comin back to create a zombie. This could just be the game that gets me fired.

Startin a group sounds like a fun idea.

I don't suppose Stiffs can side with the still living?

I a Zombie called 'RygorMortys' standing next to the internal barricade in side one of the railway stations next to the junk yard. There are tow other zombies with me. I was grunting to both of them when I ran out of points.

So far I have tried beating down the Barriade around a building nearby and have managed to knock some of it down.

I was wondering where I could get some food.
Is thre like Graveyard around here some where.

Post by: Bad Andy on 04 April, 2006, 11:03:11 PM
This is bloody stupid. I have three characters give it the full whack, and I've only managed to hit something twice.

What a waste of time.

I know what you mean.
I shot at one of them 6 times, hit it once, and I've no bullets left.
Now I'm sleeping in a car park like a common tramp.

If you use more than one character in the same location then the game makes them all shit.

I'm going to have fun looking at this when I get home. Work blocks it as a game, rather than allowing it as the vital survival skills exercise it is.

6 hours is not going to give you much XP or whatever it is called in game..(HP?)..doesn't it start with 10% hit rate for a punch, etc. and 5% for a pistol...slowly build these up by getting to 100 points and buying a skill...it's slow work though...how do these people reach level 13, etc....1?!?!!?

in the space are 4 small squares making a bigger square but I don't think you type that in.

I quite like being a zombie, but you get paranoid about being 'lifed'...still...that's death for you!

Just realised, cause I'm a bit dim, that if you search in hospitals you tend to find med kits, fire stations might bag you an axe, not managed to loot any malls yet, or find replacement ammo for my pistol...

Hope PVS and JEB don't mind but I've assumed the identity of a Solar Wind creation of theirs..

Street cop Jim Callous is searching for his trusty patrol dog Ripper on the mean streets of Malton.

Might as well be blind- shot at a zombie four times, hit it once! "Bazooka" and "barn door" spring to mind.

Where are you coming in from?  Wallis Square Police Dept. is (I think) toward the North East end of the suburb.  It's safely barricaded, quite a few survivors in there.

By the way, does anyone want a shotgun?  Found one but I've got no combat skills, so it's pretty much useless to me.

Post by: Art on 06 April, 2006, 11:01:36 PM
Guns appear to be entirely useless to starting charcaters (I fired off the clip I started with and got nothing)... As does attacking a zombie in any way, really. It might be better to concentrate on searching for equipment and gaining XP in other ways at first (clearing bodies, healing people).

Stocking up on medipacks (search hospitals) and a fireaxe (search firestation) seems like a good idea....

You can also gain XP by reading books found in libraries but it's a slow process.
Title: Re: Come and fight zombies...........
Post by: Satanist on 06 April, 2006, 11:47:00 PM
I think going a fireman is a good start. The tactic I've been using is first find a secure hideout. Then nip out, find a nearby lone zombie and try and whack him about 30 times, then back to the hideout, if you kill one you get about 15/20 exp. In 2 days I now have 97 exp.



Oh and if you click on your name you can give your character a description, but even better you can enter which group you are affiliated with. So I imagine if we all put the same name that makes us a group. But best to see how many actually make it to the meeting point eh ;-D

Paul, as was said there are strict limits on how many times you can hit the site, and how much your character can do. Even with the maximum number of characters (about three) you'd be hard pressed to play for more than half an hour a day. I think that's part of the attraction.

JoeXDredd is the law and he's safely inside the Wallis Square Police Station. Glad to see others have made it.

If we go South one square into the carpark and turn East for 6 squares we'd be in the Giddings Hall. 7 steps there, 7 back, call it 20 for safety. That gives us 30 points to loot the mall and attack Zombies whilst we're there. Anyone want to pick a time and date?

You need to head right through 7 suburbs and then up one or two. If you look at the map as you travel you can find Police stations and hospitals to stay in. I reckon you're at least three or four days travel away, and that assumes you get lucky and find a safe resting place straight away each time.

Wallis Square PD in Peppardville is too heavily barricaded to get in.

Jack Point managed to get into Marshment PD (3 blocks away) instead, which is VS barricaded - with tons of players inside.

Anyone feels like healing me, that'd be great - I took a bit of a battering getting here.

Med Advice:

Find a secure building with loads of other survivors and say "I'm bleedin' here!" (or whatever works for you) and the chances are good that a samaritan will have bandaged you up by the time you've come around after downing the wine you salvaged from the local church.

That's worked better for me than wandering around an abandoned hospital looking for leftovers with only the soulless moaning of the shambling dead for company.

Tons of equipment, So far I've managed to grab a flack jacket, shotgun (with shells) and pistol. I've already bagged a couple of zombies, and there are some pretty good safe places here.

Ahem.  Sorry.  Anyway, I think the Maine Building (one North, three East from Marshment PD) is a Necrotech lab, so there should be some scientists around there to revive you.  Apparently churches and graveyards are usually considered revive points by default, but there aren't any nearby... there's a monument two blocks West of the PD, though, that might be worth checking.

Anyone with barricade skills should reinforce the barricade back up to Very Strong.

Anyone with a weapon should kill the zombies.  I shot one of 'em a couple of times, but it's still lurching.

Then I fell asleep - which isn't very helpful at this point.  I had a scout around for another safe house, but all I came up with was an empty PD even closer to the Armoury.

Bad Andy:

Construction is a very useful skill, because it allows you to build/repair barricades.

Free Running allows you to enter Heavy Barricade buildings via neighbouring buildings (you get to cross from building to building without touching the street) - so it's a great one for staying safe.

I've moved into the Maine Building - Marshment PD is a zombie target today - there were still 3 in there when I left - and no barricade - just closed doors.

I'vew legged it to a church East of the Marchment. On the plus side it's secure adn there are other people in it. On the negative side there;'s a graveyard with 20 plus Zombies in it.

I also have a second character far off in the south who is building up points quickly with an axe. If you improve your axe attack with your first 100 points you can gain XP much quicker after that and then buy others. When I've got my axe skills, Free running and construction skills I'll be off on an equipment search.

Healing is a good way of gaining XP once you have diagnosis skill, 5 XP for every heal...easy money once you have a few med packs at the expense of 1 AP.  Nice when you get chance to use it.

Also, if you have a med-kit than try and heall people on the street, there's a good chance you'll catch them under full health.

"What about comandeering the Gibbons Building...?"

Hmm... close to two police depts, a fire station and a hospital.  Not bad, if you don't mind being that close to the fort.  

How about the junkyard immediately south of the Gibbons block?  According to the Wiki they can be barricaded and they're often overlooked as targets.

Post by: Bad Andy on 11 April, 2006, 02:49:25 AM
A junkyard's not a bad idea actually. The only thing is you can't seem to completely block it all off.

Here's my suggestion. We go to the Junkyard at 80,43. This is just across the border in Pitneybank,  two east and one south from Maine, and set up camp there.

We're a couple of moves from police/fire/mall/revive point (cemetery) only the hospital at seven moves is a bit distant. But the armoury at the fort is close.

Everyone tries to obtain the 'free running' trait through building up XP - that way we can also lay claim to the Davenport Cinema next to it and, maybe eventually, St Lucy's Church. If we completely barricade up the two buildings that are attached and use the junkyard as an entrance then we could be a little safer.

After that we can work on what we should be about. Any takers?

My major complaint about the game would be that Free Running isn;t really an option, it's an *essential* skill. In many parts of the city if you do not have free running you will simply die. As a result theres probably an overabundance of scouts.
Title: Re: Come and fight zombies...........
Post by: Funt Solo on 11 April, 2006, 03:01:58 AM
I'd be up for that - trouble is, my character's shit at the moment - just a shooty skill.  I seem to spend most of my time hunting for ammo, and the rest of the time looking for a safe house.

Do we have anyone that can barricade?

Once I'm alive again, I can.

The guide advises people without very much XP to gain it my using healing people (much needed at the moment).

Apparently first aid kits can also be found in churches, so claiming St Lucy's might be a pretty good alternative to risking a trip to the hospital.

Anyway Jim Callous finally made it to the Dalley Library next to Maine Building- but as a zombie..

Just for the record Fort Creedy's Armoury is packed to the rafters with undead- unless yer Bruce Campbell I wouldn't go in there on your own.

Just to add to that I'm carrying;

An empty pistol
(wearing?) a flak jacket
Two pair of wirecutters
A flare gun
A fire axe
A fuel can (for generators I assume)
And *four* med kits

And as a zombie all I can do is 'drop' them.

Meh.

You can bite barricades, but it won't actually damage them.

i'm not sure pistol attacks do anything either.

Post by: Bart Oliver on 11 April, 2006, 05:50:26 AM

I think I bit it by accident ;) The default attack was set to 'barricades'.

Being undead isn't all bad- I've gained XPs biting other zombies (like they care) and don't have to worry too much about finding a safe house at the end of my round of APs.

Bart - as a zombie, you do keep wearing the flak jacket - and are still protected by it.

Jack Point went looking for ammo and ended up in another Necrotech building in Heytown, having failed to find any police station or hospital within range that wasn't heavily barricaded.

On the other side of town, Funt Solo finally found out the secret resistance password [ie Free Running] and is holed up in a towerblock stronghold as the zombie hordes attack the brightly lit police station next door.

I have devised a cunning experience boosting plan...

Duelling!

We'd need two fighter types and a doctor with lots of first aid kits.  The two fighters take turns bashing each other in with fire axes (not to the death) and the doctor fixes them up afterwards...
Title: Re: Come and fight zombies...........
Post by: Thursday on 11 April, 2006, 09:08:55 PM
Duelling, you say?  Sneaky, but apparently human-on-human (or zombie/zombie) fighting only nets you half as much XP.  

You'd level up faster if you could find a friendly zombie to smack you around a bit: according to the Wiki you can identify zombies if you've got the character on your contact list, otherwise they just appear as 'a zombie'.

Anyway, I'd be up for this, either as the medic or the zombie.

If you're in a hospital with a generator and lots of people, it's a fairly safe bet that you'll be healed up to full health pretty quickly...

The frustrating thing is I was infected when I got revived, so all my plans went to shit.

I think that always happens when you're revived - always carry a First Aid Kit in case you get infected.  You don't get any Experience for healing yourself, but it's better than waking up to find that you've only got 4 HP left and you're gradually bleeding to death...

Title: Re: Come and fight zombies...........
Post by: Thursday on 12 April, 2006, 06:36:18 PM
Shambling slightly off-topic here... I think it could be a damn fine plan to have a Tooth-based game like this.  Maybe something based in the undercity with muties, troggies and perps, or a block war game, or something on Mars, or Nu Earth: it'd probably take longer to list the possibilities than to code the thing.

Now, I admit I know roughly bog-all about programming or business, but I think this could be a smart move for Rebellion.  The Urban Dead game looks like it has several thousand players (over 300000, according to its front page).  I don't know how much it would cost Rebellion to take out a one-off advertising campaign to reach that many people, but I'd imagine it's more than it'd cost to design and run a game like this, and the game could conceivably attract thousands simply through word of mouth: stick up a banner for the latest TPBs or video game and voila, cheap advertising to a massive audience.  And if it were anywhere near as addictive as Urban Dead you'd get a hell of a lot of repeat visits, so potentially it'd be more effective than a one-shot advert in a magazine.

Plus, if the game were actually any good then that alone could persuade people to give Rebellion's other titles a look.

So, we get to wander around smacking perps and muties, Rebellion gets a tonne of almost-free advertising, and everyone's happy.  Except when they run out of AP two moves from their block.

I agree, I think a Judge Dredd version, or something of this ilk, would be great.  If you have Mega City One, The Undercity and the Cursed Earth, that would be amazing.  Imagine going on your own helltrek and coming across mutants, flying rats and tyrannosaurs.  Or even just hanging about in Blocks in gangs, fighting each other with the occassional full scale block war.

Post by: Funt Solo on 12 April, 2006, 09:28:20 PM
Gameplay Advice for new non-zombies:

Priority #1:  
Find somewhere safe to sleep.  If you've not got Free Running, then that means a Very Strongly barricaded building (you can't get into Heavily Barricaded buildings - and buildings with their doors open aren't safe - neither is the street.)  Hopefully, that building is either not of interest to zombie hordes (ie not a PD, FD, NecroTech, Hospital, Mall or Armoury) or heavily populated (reducing the risks of you getting eaten if the horde does break in).

Priority #2:
Find a good way to gain XP.  (Firemen are good with axes, doctors are good with meds, soldiers are good with pistols...)

Priority #3:
Level up with the Free Running skill - it allows you to move from block to block without going outside - speeding you up and allowing entry into heavily barricaded blocks.

---

Survival in the early days is as much about luck as anything else.  Expect to be eaten - you are, after all, living in a zombie-infested city.

---

PS Don't go to New Arkham - it's a zombie stronghold - and they're learning how to talk!

Only try hitting things if you've started out as a fireman, or shooting things if you're a cop or a private (you will need LOTS of ammunition to go up in level, though - search in police stations for ammo)

Other characters should probably start by searching in hospitals, find loads of first aid kits, then search the surrounding buildings and streets for survivors.  Someone on their own is probably wounded, so use the first aid kit on them (you waste an AP if they're not wounded, but you keep the kit).  This builds up exp at 5 points per sucessful heal.

You also get exp for throwing bodies out of buildings, using a DNA extractor on a zombie and reading books (although it's something like 1 point for every 50 AP, so I'm not sure it's worth the effort).

However, your guy is probably now dead.  Tomorrow, he'll rise as one of the dead.  If you want to bring him back to life, you need to queue up next to a revive point (they're usually monuments and graveyards, marked with tags) - move towards one that's got loads of zombies standing in a group.  You might be there for a while, though, so spend your APs by cutting down the queue by eating the brain of the next zombie in line.  (I suspect that this is annoying for the zombie at the front of the queue, but it seems to happen in every line I've been in...)

Eventually you'll get revived by a passing scientist.

No, there's a chance of finding something every time you search (Hospitals are good for First Aid Kits, Police Stations for guns, ammunition and armour, fire stations for fire axes, fuel and generators).

Nah - I've been sorted thanks.

Safely holed up in the hospital I'm guessing is four moves south of you - St Benedicts. Here with fellow Necronauts Doc Thursday and Doc Feelygood.

I think the unofficial plan is just to build up a bit of AP through healing and axing before perhaps putting the official plan from a few pages earlier into action.

I'm going to attack the zombies around the fort tomorrow. If you find a suitable abandoned place we can all call our own I can barricade it up for us, but I think we need a few more skill sto even do that yet. If we're going to be a team we need people working on the health and revive chracteristics, but free running is the essential skill at the mo it seems.

Looking back and Boxall's four moves from Byrne, which is another four from St Benedicts.

That's eight Necronauts in a managable area. Maybe we should all meet in Byrne tomorrow (if we're still alive after the night).

++ Whatever you do don't attack the hordes at Walrond Square - that's ex-people looking to get revived. ++

TBO attacking queues of zombies waiting to be cured at revive points (see Wiki Urban Dead Main Page for details) is how alot of players (Rotters and Golddiggers?) make easy XPs and gain levels quickly.

If the Necronauts ran a revive point you wouldn't have to axe, bite or heal each other to gain points just other players visiting the RP.

The whole city seems to run on rackets like this..

No, no. A rotter is a zombie who's bought the brain rot skill, which stops them from being revived in the street. A career zombie.

With my two characters I found a secure house and then went for attack skills to start with, working on the theory that it would make aquiring skills quicker after that and I'm right. Axe proficiency of 40% is bloody handy and although I wasted a say looking for bullets having pistol proficiency of 55% I'm more likely to get XP tomorrow.

Players with multiple characters should consider stumping up the money for ISP immunity. It works out at 2.83 per character, though it takes a few days for Kevan to get round to processing it. Once he does though it's really usefull.

Post by: DavidXBrunt on 15 April, 2006, 11:36:59 PM
As a zombie you gain XP by attacking people. You can gain them by attacking fellow zombies but you only get half the amount you would for a human. As a human you can get XP by attacking and killing zombies, using Medkits on fellow survivors, tagging certain buildings.

As for the nearest revival point, there's a graveyard in the north west of the suburb to the east of Peppardville (I think) or you might want to consult the wiki.

best way to power up is to help others, rather than attack zombies - heal people and throw the dead out of buildings - that sort of thing - then when you power up your chances of hitting, swap to more offensive means of gaining XP - or become a scientist type and revive

I't s more fun to be a zombie in this game.

Where mortals have to restrain themselves.

So he's moved into the bank nearby while still human.

One of my characters have found a flare gun. Going outside the building to use it. Now it is missing from the inventory. Strange.

Do you drop stuff when sleeping.

My human fire-fighter has not gone to sleep yet, always staying on more than ten action points.


My zombie has gone unconsious three times and has also been shot dead as many times. Though not since being made human again.

Both characters are now not doing much both standing in barricaded building surrounded by other humans.

No other zombies in the vicinty.

Thanks, satchmo!

It's Professor Boss. Not that anyone knows who that is. But it's him.

Some guy called DrBS shot at me a few times, killing me, ( Whi;le I was still human.) accused me of attacking him. I perhaps did. Though I don't remember the name. Now that my character Rotz Alot is a zombie again.

What does it mean when you go to attack somebody else and the game tells that you can't because they have now moved. Yet they are still in the same building or location you character is in.

It probably means they left the building and came back in quickly

The borders around Monroeville will be locked shut in three days time. I'm not sure what that means for inhabitants and/or insiders.

' To quote from the latest news.....

'Monroeville is now locked down in full quarantine - no new characters can be created there, characters will no longer idle out, all idle characters have been reactivated, and zombies in the city can now be killed permanently by removing the head or destroying the brain using the "Headshot" skill.'

*************************************************

I'm not sure what they mean by IDLING.

Though, I am alittle concerned for both my characters who are Zombies.

Idling:

Normally if you don't log in for (I think) five days, your character disappears from the game world until you next log in.
