Hey guys i found a house at the border of a new city and there are 2 or 3 houses next to it with lots of F /forest just under my house, is it good for a hideout?

I DO agree XP should be a lot harder to come by though, at the moment its very close to a non-factor, which is sad because I feel the morale system is one of the best things about the game.

It could always increase more slowly when your XP pool starts to get higher in numbers.

And yes, that should suffice for a good hideout. Currently I'm in a small suburban area close to the forest and no zombies have spawned in where I am. Of course the occasional wolf or bear still poses a
great threat. No Triffids surprisingly  :o

Sure, but at least bears and such can't break down doors.
And they'll happily drop dead from a buckshot to the head. Hell, even birdshot should do the trick.

Too bad you don't have Triffids. Those are awesome. They can't either break down doors and provide you with a nice supply of veggies.
It does make a hell of an ammo waste since you need to clear them out each day.

Liiiiiiiiies! Liiiiiies!

Triffids bad. Triffids very bad. So bad. o_o

They come through the walls.

Then they make the walls attack you.

The house becomes one with the triffid threat.

*nightmares of triffids all the time*

I have to agree with Glyph. I've had bad experiences with them. They were always the #1 thing to kill me when I first started out.
Bears can't do that? What about windows? But I suppose it doesn't really matter, I have a few bear traps around. I wish I could find a "How to Trap Anything" skill book. I've found two areas full of traps, but
can't disarm them >.<

A giant carnivorous, walking plant.

I normally stay in a basement near the middle of the city. I like the challenge of dodging hordes with a back pack full of food. My last character actually had a home in one of the sewer subway connector thingies. (You know, the one that kicked the hulks ass.) I actually had to move because the Hulk destroyed my metal door. Damn him >.<

How do you mod this game I want to make it harder to stay alive (Increase spawn rates, and stuff like that)?

The13thRonin has his mod, which basically does what you said. You will NOT want to fight his zombies.

Is there a way to tell if a house has a basement short of going inside and looking for stairs?
