Oddly enough, well and rain water have never given my chars any issues in this game.

[forsaken1111]

same. I drink rain water all the time. I have two jerrycans full of the stuff.

Been playing the experimental from about two weeks ago, and I've got to say that it's like twice as much game as the stable. All the little easter eggs I've found without documentation are amazing (Not to mention the extra vehicles. So much heavy plating!).

I just found one that isn't spoilerish in any way but was a really nice discovery just out of the blue, so I'm gonna spoiler it anyway.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I found what looks like an abandoned cabin with two buildings at the end of a grown-over dirt pathway which itself is at the end of a very long road, ending at a radio tower. The main building, which I'm guessing was the original house, is damaged and broken, and the entrace to a barn looking building is blocked with lockers and fridges. The courtyard(ish) area is overgrown with bushes and small trees. Outside the back door to the barricaded building is a teddybear and a locket inside a mound of dirt. Inside, I an incredibly well-stocked survival shelter, including two 30 gallon drums of clean water and a few bottles/gallon jugs, enough food to last the entire season, a composite bow, quiver, and even some arrows. The best part was that, tucked away in a corner, lay a single human corpse. On the corpse was a USP 45 with 11 rounds loaded and 1 casing on the ground. Poor guy must have only seen one way out.

It's a perfect spot, in a forest, far away from a town, and next to a river. I'll clean the place up and give this guy an honourable burial, right next to his daughter.

Psst... That's probably the mother.

[Iceblaster]

i often confuse mothers with their husbands

this is a thing normal humans do, yes?

It migh've been the father who just liked to wear panties like any sensible lumberjack. After all, s/he was in middle of a forest.

This makes me think there should be adolescent survivors, maybe even small children that you'd then need to decide what to do with. They'd be, you know, pretty useless as companions and only draw on your food and water, but abandoning them to die should be a very heavy guilt hit unless a psychopath.

[Kaitol]

Meh. Statistically speaking, men kill themselves with guns. Women tend to take pills, drown themselves, or hang themselves.

When survivors are asked why/analyzed by a shrink, it's generally because they would feel embarrassed about leaving a mess/horrifying mangled corpse. Men on the other hand, give no fucks generally. Go out with a bang.

But of course, there are always exceptions and this is just a *mostly* kind of deal.

[Majestic7]

Actually suicide statistic are skewed by the fact many women do not actually want to die; rather the suicide attempt is a cry for help and/or attention. The typical example being popping pills, then calling 911 so they come and save you before you actually croak.

Also, it should be noted that current studies are skewed, since a very small percentage of suicide attempts occurs during zombi apocalypse.

No better time to start than the present. So we need a zombie apocalypse, a placebo zombie apocalypse, and a ton of people to dump in them.

[Majestic7]

In a zombie apocalypse the belief that destroying the brain prevent resurrection as a Z-kin might be a valid reason for everyone to shoot themselves in a heteronormative patriarchal attempt at keeping down the Z-kin and their valid attempts at recognition.

How do you intend to reanimate sugar pills?

[Graknorke]

Just mix in a tiny concentration of alive people.

Interesting what a conversation was sparked from deciding to include the "probably"

[Majestic7]

Huh, after playing martial artists, robocops and black belts, the game became a lot more exciting starting as an average Joe and just running, running, running from zeds on my supply runs.
