Greetings forumites, its time for a C:DDA suggestion game. The last one (the only one?) I've seen, is from last year (and it looks like it was discontinued) and I believe much has changed with the game since then so its time for a new one.

I will be using the latest experimental (experience says, they are usually more stable than the stable's). I will post images when relevant and use text otherwise. I'll try to have a minimum of 1-2 update per day (more if suggestions are flowing). Here we go!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Rules (yes there are some):

1. Thou shalt not cheat/exploit game mechanics (small stuff to avoid tedium is fine, but nothing game-breaking)
2. Thou shalt not grind (its boring and not very fun)
3. Thou shalt try to survive (don't do suicidal things, please)

I think that about covers it actually. Basically don't do anything too gamey.

Options

1. Zombie spawn is doubled, item spawn is halved
2. Static Zombie spawn, no hordes, both static and dynamic NPC is on
3. Initial season is winter (because it is winter right now in NE U.S.A); seasons are 28 days long
4. Skill rust is off

Mods

1. Boats (Why not?)
2. Weapons pack (Cause I'm 'murican)
3. No Joke Monsters (These are just annoying)
4. Prevent Zombie Revival (debated this one, but decided revival is more annoying than interesting)
5. Vehicle Additions (Could be cool, if we get around it)

Alright, I think that'll about do it. 

First things first, character creation:

I haven't included details for anything, if you want more details for something, just ask.

We also need a name, and a gender.

Edit: So far two characters have been genned and killed, neither was able to live past day 1

P sure you're thinking of mine~

My old one will restart eventually, crippling computer errors in the windows partition are the main issue.

Sorry to hear that (computer issues, not you restarting yours). In the mean-time I'll try to keep this one going.

Well, if no one else comments we might just have to go ahead with this...

[Culise]

Oh, jeeze.  It has been awful quiet; we were supposed to get a serious entry by now. 
...
Well, I suppose on the bright side, we'd end up going right back to chargen in a hurry if we ended up with that.

I'll leave it till next morning, if no one posts well go ahead with this. And don't be so sure, static NPC is enabled so survival is possible (just barely)

[bahihs]

Well, no one else posted. So we go on ahead with Culise's cruel, cruel build.

...Unfortunately, both fragile and illiterate cannot be taken (too many points) so Slow Reader is taken instead.

And so, with 42 points to spare, we begin our journey:





You've always been a piece of shit. Born with absolutely no skills, abilities, or talents, you decided to snort, smoke, inject, ingest and insert drugs. Because they were available. Because they were cheap. And because they made your shitty existence...bearable.

But then, God decided to shit on the whole world. Everyone is either dead, dying or undead. But you are alive. And there is a strange balance in that. So gird your loins Warren Escobedo, because now is your time, now is your second chance at life!

Also, the building is on fire and you have the flu. And there is an angry walking corpse in front of you. What will you do?   

[Gamerboy4life]

Avoid direct contact, get out of building ASAP. The fire will take care of it.


And also, shouldn't something like this be in the Play with your buddies subforum?

That's what I thought as well, but the other Cata suggestion game is in this forum, so I just followed precedent. Also since this is a suggestion game and not a let's play, I assumed it was ok. If not, the mods are free to move it where they see fit.

You back away from the zombie and stumble toward the window. In haste, you tear back the curtains and lift the window up. The zombie lunges toward you and you can feel sharp teeth plunge into your side. You clench your own teeth from the pain and jump out the window into a narrow alley. The winter air is cold and cuts your face.

What will you do?

To the rooftops! climb up the fire escape of the nearest non-building.

Psst, there is no height in C:DDA. You can't climb stuff yet (progress on Z-levels has been erratical).


Try to remember where do you have to run to get out of the city!

I have never heard of the game but the screenshots I just know it's an apocalyptic rougelike
