Okay, first time playing the game, and I manage to break the tutorial (pumped room full of petrol and used a lighter). It burned the walls down and I went exploring

[Angel Of Death]

it takes around 50 hits for a zombie to take you down. OK for now I guess... I hope that there will be a better damage system in the far future. I am spoiled by df .

I think there should be a bleeding system added to make zombies a bit tougher. It's really weird not to bleed a bit after being clawed apart by them.

Edit: NVM....

Edit2: Okay, so how do you actually run? From what the game appears to say all that run mode does is stop you when a zombie is sighted, not increase your movement speed.

Actually you are always running at the maximum speed possible, there is no walk/run mode (your speed is displayed on the bottom-right corner: Spd). Speed is reduced by pain and increased by stimulants, for example.

Zombies should grow stronger progressivly, as time passes, with a cap. So they should gain better stats and skills an level up like the player does but virtually. THey'd grow stronger and faster with time

Edit: Would make the game more challenging and players who train and become conan the barbarian would notice it doesn't last forever

I do not like this idea. It forces the player to become Conan the Barbarian or get stomped. It also makes the entire concept of leveling up different-- you're keeping pace, not struggling to overcome the odds.

Plus, that'll add Fallout 3 levels of idiocy- where one unloads full auto into someone's head and does 10 percent of their health despite every bullet hitting.

Now, if some interesting mutant enemies showed up within reason- that would be awesome.

I agree with you, thanks for bringing up those arguements i take back my previous idea xD. I play fallout new vegas a lot (very hard+hardcore mod only) and i hate how i have to shoot a ncr soldier whole chargers in the head with a 9mm gun at level 4, to kill him.

How many blows does it take for a normal human to beat another human to death? somewhere in the 30-60 range seems reasonable. Humans are tough.

I think my latest character is a terrorist. I spawn in the middle of the city, and having gathered a trenchcoat and backpack, headed into the basement. I found: 200x gasoline, 1x lighter, about 600 rounds of assorted ammunition, two shotguns, two assault rifles, three handguns and three submachine guns. Oh and two mutagens.


FEAR ME UNDEAD, FOR I AM NANCY MINUTE, THE FURRY FISH TERRORIST!!



Edit: how the hell do you get a molotov to light!? I've tried wielding it and then activating a lighter, but nothing happens. I try activating it normall and nothing happens!

You 'a'ctivate the molotov in your inventory while you have a working lighter in your inventory, then throw it.

I tried that, but it instantly fizzled out. I then tried it while wielding the molotov and the game crashed (looing at the Cataclysm forums that's happening to other people).



Anyway, this game is so god-damned frustrating!

Hi deon will you ever release an update to your mod ?

Don't bother wielding it, just chuck it next time.

Still didn't set alight, but I got a headshot when I threw it, killed a zombie in one with a bottle

[SirAaronIII]

That's certainly more entertaining.
