how does a buzzard attacking my face give me a sprained leg?

[ElCabong]

He managed to do that one second before I bashed his head in.

 

I'm not getting 20 buzzards on me when I ride my bike anymore. looks like they're waiting to attack when I'm engaging a zombie like they should.

 

Experimented with glass blocks, put up some windows and even some stained glass windows. Seems to be taking longer to mine the sand I need than the lead. If you're just plunking down the blocks, switch to the business glass because that is something you won't walk through and it looks just like the glass blocks.

 

Don't seem to be seeing the big predators at night. Perhaps it's because I've been in my base for so long and I haven't moved?

 

Having way too much fun with that baseball bat, if I run into a zombie convention I will pull out my bat even though it takes longer.

Perhaps you said something foolish, confusing, or embarrassing right before.

Makes for good gameplay.

It made you trip and fall?

[myrkana]

while trying to fight the buzzard you stumbled over a random piece of garbage and fell.  or you didnt realise the side of the road was so close and ended up rolling down it, hititng your leg on the way. Use your imagination

The 'stumble' explanations would make sense if it couldn't happen to you while riding a vehicle haha. Personally I'm not annoyed that it happens although the quantity and speed with which the debuffs are applied from vultures seems a little bit too much.

The sound of a good hit with the bat is just so satisfying.

The head bone's connected to the leg bone?

 

I think there's a song about that.

Because the devs want players to have sprained legs more regularly, otherwise they would barely experience them if they can only get it by falling (my guess anyways).

[ElCabong]

Well, okay, maybe when the debuff is applied I should be hit with a falling move so that I really did stumble. That would make it more believable and make me hate them damn buzzards even more.

Observe how the bird attack, whilst not making actual contact, may lead to hand, knee and/or gluteus abrasions

 

[alanea]

simply ?  injuries are completely randomized on hit  ... funny pimps mentioned they want injury based on attacker implemented in future

I went through a few hours of playing last night.  Horde night, just a few scratches.  I killed hundreds of zeds and demos and everything on the large multiplayer server with my fellow survivors.  Dozens of POI's, I was whispering death incarnate.  Bears and wolves, gunned down with wild abandon.  Not surprising since my toon is high level, skilled out, extremely armored and armed to the teeth.

 

Then I went to the desert to mine up some oil, got a lot, rode home.  At the edge of the desert I rode up a small hill and got stuck near the top going over.  A vulture had been following me and started wailing on me.  Before I could get off my bike completely the vulture had given me a sprained ankle, a cuncussion, an infection and managed to take off half my health.  When I finally dismounted I unloaded the AK and killed him.

 

This is just silly.

Gotta cut down on those jumping spin kicks, dude.
