first off, you can play as both if you want (you are limited by 150 connections from a unique IP per day, but not by the number of charecters you can have).
and second you can get out of a heavily barricaded building by clicking on a neigghbouring building (or street), surprisingly enough most people do not know this. :blink:
oh, and don't kill that civilian guy just because he has "rigor mortis"- he's mostly harmless as long as he is alive.

I just started playing the game after reading this thread. It looks cool, but I got mauled by a zombie and am slowly dying from the wound. Is there anything I should do about it?

Also, where is it okay to leave the character logged-off? The guide said not to stay in police stations, but if there are more than 20 people there is it okay?

Try to find a Hospital and ask there for help.. in hospitals are almost some Docs who can heal you.. btw. zombie infection can be cured with a first aid pack..

it depends how strongly the PD is secured, but 20 or more survivors in there gives you enough safety to rest one or two days in the Building

I know I can play as both, it's just that I felt it would be better to use a name that would be associated with me, no point in playing two firefighters... And, of course, you can leave a building any time you want, it's entering it that can be a problem (unless you've got free running) :) . I didn't kill him, I waited an hour for the APs and moved somewhere else. It would have been hard to kill him anyway, I only had 1 AP left.

Seriously though, I think it could be fun to create a group, pick a suburb and "capture" a one or two buildings in it. If there's enough interest, someone could create a UD thread and we could try to build something there...

It seems that there are many groups in the game and they all seem to roleplay their political system enthusiastically. Sounds fun.

Cool topic! :ok:

I live in two story building, right above the drug store. When i understand the situation, i will get a backpack and the following equipment:

1.Kitchen knife- Very sharp.
2.Food and something to drink
3.lighter
4.Rope
5.Warm clothes
6.Something to read-if i have to camp in somewhere and wait for long time
7.Pen and Paper
8.Camera-For some evidence
9.Red Cape-This is from the last years halloween party (Not a kids party). If im going to crawl in the middle of the zombies, it will do it with style.

Goal: Those who stay on their homes are doomed to dead. If i were a computer game hero i would go and find out where these zombies come from. But because im not, the main goal is the get the hell outta here. Im going to leave this zombie-infested place and head to the next city. If i cant hear anything about the zombies when i get there, il explain everything to authorities.


Plan: First, il make a hole trought the living room floor so i can make it to the drug store. Inside the store, il try to find some medicine or something that will help me.
Im going to have to be careful all the time and look out for zombies.
When im outside, im going to have to look for a vehicle. I will start the car with sharp knife. If i cant find a vehicle or i couldnt start it, il use my feet.
Then, im going to look for other survivors. If we stick together, we have better possibilities to survive.

if already came up with the idear of building a Abandonia Group.. here i believe that this could be funny.. but for building a group that is able to work together as a group, we need at least 10 members..

I've playing Ud with 2 char. one undead and one firefighter.. the undead is already in a group, the Ridleybank Resistance Front, but my Firefighter needs a group, cos it's freaking lonley out there if u don't recognize some friends :D .. so if we plan to build a human group, then my lonley FF would be happy to join..
but let's see if there are enough ppl here who are interested in such a "Abandonia" UD group..

we are getting :ot:

Very true a1s.
Who is going to rate these anyway.
everyone or just Olsheep maybe.

Save your last 10 APs on looking for a house that no one cares about and is barricaded. Zombies can't get into barricaded buildings.


.:EDIT:.
<!--QuoteBegin-a1s
I've been playing that for quite some time, I have a scientist charecter (named a1s* ), so don't hestiate to ask for a revival (in case you need one).
P.S. do you gain anything from that brain eating link? [/quote]

Can you use revival if you start as a Zombie Corpse?

No, except the larger my zombie army is!
