Did anybody of you encounter Zombie in the starting evacuation shelter? Because I just did. I started new game, went down opened the doors and there was a fucking Zombie in there... WTF I never have did kind of experience in this game. Is it a bug or Zombies can now spawn in evacuation center basements?

Bastard even came up after me, but fortunately he could not open the door when I closed them. But he is now in my spawning point. I had huge problems surviving at the begninning. Now after zombie starting just near you those days might seem pretty easy.

Every so often something crawls into the basement and gets stuck down there, waiting for you to let them out.

Its horrific when you find specials in the shelter basement.

Zombies of various types have been able to spawn in the shelter basement for about a year and a half now (went in in October 2013). To counterbalance it you get more loot in basements that have zombies in them.

Hehe. That makes sense since I did not play for some time. Not mentioning some games about month ago.

I always assume that scenario is what happens when a shelter is home to some survivors that end up dying there. Other shelters are just cleaned out because everyone left by the time you start out, but some people died in the basement of this one, and all the items they had, found, or started with in the shelter, remain there with their reanimated bodies.

what profession do you guys usually pick?

I usually take tailor. Is this a mistake?

[BigD145]

Most recently? Fireman.

My favorite is the scoundrel. He starts off with a good weapon, a picklock kit, and plenty of combat skills. The only downside is his poor clothing.

I usually do a lot of melee, so the trenchcoat and cargo pants Punk Rock Dude wears are nice. Lack of a knife is less nice, but I find it easier to craft a passing knife than clothing with lots of storage but little encumbrance. Chain Smoker and Hitchhiker give a pretty cheap extra point as well.

I usually play a Kannushi, not for any particular in-game benefit (though the Kojiki is pretty amazing with Spiritual) but because I find Shinto interesting, and it's sort of fun trying to think through how someone of the Shinto faith would go about surviving the end of the world.

Well, don't they usually dispel restless dead with ofuda talismans? Get your throwing to level 20 and kill the zombies with sheets of paper.

I'm sure you can carve your talismans into wood, or even rocks, if you're low on paper

Its horrific hilarious when you find specials in the shelter basement.

One of my latest characters was a maid.  Specifically, a kung fu maid for hilarity.  Usually, though, I go with backpacker, punk rock girl, or shower victim, though the last of these tends to result in some minor questions when you also pick the flaws that give free gear, so I avoid it in those circumstances.  Alright, I could see grabbing a pair of glasses (I tend to keep mine just outside the shower, in case some spider drops down on top of me again) or an inhaler (medicine in the bathroom; sure), but an umbrella?  Who brings an umbrella into a shower?

Well, you wouldn't want getting wet in the shower, would you?
