Two words: Misshapen Fetus

For eating of course.

[pandamage]

Of course! What else would you do with a fetus?

[Whales]

I certainly hope you wouldn't beat a robot to death with it!

Preposterous!

Gryph is enraptured by Sir Moops avatar.

Yeeee....haaaat

Anyways, I imagine sealing yourself inside of a lab would be, at best, a stopgap. And if the labs end up having some more dangerous stuff running around in them freely eventually, maybe more than that.

I only wish that avatar were animated, and that I had the music to listen to while I watched it.

It's less sealing yourself inside, and more about having an impenetrable safehouse to sleep in (Queen Triffids or a very unlucky lightning strike are the only way I could see the player facing any danger when sleeping there).

It is now!

Anyways, Are there other spears besides the wooden one? My level 7 piercing dude could use an upgrade to something a little more powerful but I'm unable to find anything.

Excellent, now I can properly imagine you with a Scottish/bird accent.

There's a craftable steel-tipped spear, and many cutting weapons (combat knife, machete, and others) will be used as a piercing weapon if that skill is better.  Maybe I'll add fencing swords to homes?

How about craftable shanks? With less moves per hit, a lower to hit bonus, but a well suited stabbing ability?
EDIT: Not sure if I worded it right, but I mean that it strikes faster than spears.

For reals? I didn't know that!

Also, mechanically, is cutting the same as stabbing? And do weapons do the same damage either way they are used?

In the description it only seems to be split between bashing and cutting, its kind of confusing.

[Micro102]

What do you do if your trapped in a sporting goodstore because an army of mosquitoes, zombies, wasps, frogs, and triffids all spawn whenever you step outside?

I suggest having these things fight each other because it just gets ridiculous if you step into all of those spawn areas at once.

[neotemplar]

Ok I had the game totally bug out on me with glitchy graphics after awhile and fixed it via a reverting save state. 

Also copious disappointment that you apparently cannot hack through walls with the hatchet, (now my fav weapon) it's a small axe yes but it should eventually get through.  Thanks to that my character who lived through the first night burned to death.  (I got mugged by a hoard of shocker, fast, normal, and those purple explosive zombies so I ran in a gas station and hucked a molotov at the pumps. This rendered me totally safe from the zombie bonfire as zoms kept running into it to get me.  However I sadly could not hack my way to freedom with my hatchet. Too bad I had no jackhammer.)

Additional why do zombies seem to swarm out in the boonies?  Shouldn't they generally only spawn where there would be people?

And finally how do I survive these constant zombie packs that spawn all over?  Should I be building a defensive safe house of traps?  How do I do this?

Yeah, it is confusing, I should make it more clear.
For some weapons, cutting damage really means *stabbing* damage.  These are the spears of the game, and include screwdrivers, wood/steel spears, insect stingers, scissors, and the soldering iron.  Stabbing does very little damage most of the time, but if you get a crit it does huge amounts of damage.  It also will permanently slow an enemy if your spear gets stuck in them.
Other weapons *can* be used to stab, but also cut normally.  These include steak knives, combat knives, katanas, and the bionic adamantite claws.  With these, both types of damage are calculated, and the better is used (generally this means if you crit, you stabbed; otherwise you slashed).

I'll try to make this more clear in the item descriptions.

Interesting thought about the hatchet!  I might make "destroy wall" part of the coming construction addition.
Zombies pretty much just spawn in town, but might spawn near towns as well.  Also, if you frequently have zombies follow you to the boonies, and you don't kill them all, they'll start spawning in that area as well.

As for survival... run away a lot?
