ChickenWings

this is a good topic, I will see if I can find a screen shot to post. But that fat female zombie doing the jiggle dance is just downright unsettling

I open up and look inside commercial toilets now

I crafted my anvil in the forge. Day 32 or so and still looking for a beaker though. I think there may be a pop a pills in town so will try there.

Rains every single day in wasteland, I turn it off actually I find it so annoying.

All I do is live in the wasteland, in a city (eventually), and from a base defense point it's not nearly as hard as you are describing. I'll have to see what my player level is but I'm sure it isn't very high, and I'm on day 27 or so, single player insane mode. Most nights I have very few zombies coming by, it's pretty quiet. There's a strategy to it though, when a random horde comes by just sit tight and be quiet. You know, as if you were in a real zombie apocalypse. My base defenses for the first 3 horde nights were stone arrows and wood spikes, with some iron spikes thrown in as I could make them. My horde base is a garage next to a house. The house roof has all my supplies. And I killed them all, I didn't have to resort to surviving until 4am hit. There are tricks to it though, ways to survive. And I'm real hesitant to post them here because I feel like I will be punished for coming up with ways to survive in the wasteland by the developers. Not cheesy ways, or exploits. Just using my brain like anyone else. You know, like posting how to wrench land mines, or shoot them with arrows. Now in 20 that doesn't work anymore.

It would be better to make something special out of it. Same stuff as quest-tier rewards just makes it boring IMO. Thinking of immersion, what would you expect an air drop to provide, if this were an actual air drop in a zombie apocalypse? Would the fire/flare attract some zombies ?

I remember back in the day the zombies were so predictable you could use a bow with stone arrows, and headshot everything on every shot. It was pretty boring and frankly with the bow and arrow you were more lethal with than a lot of other weapons. So they got jiggly lol and now they seem to dodge right when I shoot lol but I know it's just bad timing.

Oh you will lol but it's a lot of fun figuring out how to survive.

Not a quest, just decided to loot the "Keep out" building in the wasteland, it has dogs, a pig and wolves in it. Found my first satchel: That was the first, I ended up finding 4 of these things in different spots, same poi. All of them had nothing inside. Not complaining, just thought it was unusual. Was hoping to find a bag full of whiskey but no joy 🙂 This is a pic of the place I looted:

Not for me, but I live in the wasteland 🙂

Yep it's doable, only way I play now is wasteland from the start, on insane mode. I turn rain and wind off because it will start raining every day at some point. The first week is the hardest, but it's very doable. I'm up to day 27 I think with no deaths. Expect to die a lot at first but the challenge is a lot of fun, reminds me of when I first started to play this game. I can give you some tips if you want.

That pretty much sums it up. Used to be, whoah that's the plane, air drop coming! Stop everything and run like hell to find it, good stuff to be had and worth the effort. When you could see the parachute. Now I don't even bother looking at the plane. Ranks right up there with looting a cafe or restaurant and not finding a single thing to eat. Have the people writing code these days actually played the game?

Velcro Zombie 😀

Hard to read, but it says for those wondering, "Now that he's dead, I guess he wasn't all that bad" He was already a zombie when I found this, and attacked me. My guess he was probably Murrayed. Cheap ass coffin, wrenched it from 300 down to nothing for 2 whole pieces of scrap iron!

There was a twitter feed about those bears, lots of librarians turning up missing recently.
