My kids got me hooked on it...damn them and their zombie games! It's a bit unpolished, but once your going, it's fun.

Wow! That Night One demo was intense. I'll have to remember to try everything else out later.

As fun as it may be in real life, the premise of "a heavily armed convoy of WOGS heading for safer ground or bugging in" doesn't make for good gaming  Cheesy

Yeah, pen knife sucks...I've graduated up to a razor/chainsaw. The noise of the chainsaw tends to draw more zombies though, and by the time I'm done one zone map is complete washed in red.

I dunno man, I can foresee a pretty fun game based on reinforcing the shelter during the day, and raiding for supplies with a convoy of buddies in the evening, followed by some good perimeter defense that night...  I mean, if its going to be MMORG anyways...

Thanks 101011, for sharing this.

I'm using the chef knife, walther ppk, and a custom pen knife (for the stats) right now... I kinda got hooked on melee weapons because you don't run out of ammo at inappropriate times.  Wink
BTW, nobody has better ammo prices than I do, I sell for almost scrap.

EDIT TO ADD:

We should get online at a predesignated time, and plan a WOG convoy into the further reaches of the city, for better salvage.  Let me know what you think.

I made a character named Bard if you happen to run into me, don't kill me.  Grin

I can't believe I'm the only one who was excited about this idea.  I thought a bunch of Wogs working together to overcome obstacles and reach a goal sounded like fun, even if it was just a game... lol.

I usually start to lag graphics wise when I'm encountering too many "moving" things on this game for some reason. But, I think it'd be a great idea to team up and help each other out. Currently, I have a level 12 doctor...working on an engineer also who's level 5. We should have at least one day a week at the least to designate as a meeting point. Then we can build up a descent raid force for the deeper sections of the city.

Man, I got my ass handed to me by the zombie horde during the assault on the outpost last night.  Anybody else fight to defend the outpost?

game named WOG with password RANT, sounds good.  When is best for you guys? 

I'll be keeping my eyes open for WOG games in case one of you set one up.

I made level 5 but I can't seem to get a weapon. Still using penknife. I guess you can buy gear from other players and possibly even loot guns but I haven't found anything but ammo and crisps.

Look me up, Nicotine", I'll hook you up with a weapon.

There is also a guy running a charity "GUNS FOR NEWBS".  see if you can find him over at the forums there and send him a PM asking for a gun.  I just donated to his cause so I know he has at least one available.

Finally got a gun, browning HP. There are no instructions for the market but once you figure it out, its real easy. If anyone needs ammo or weapons, let me know and I'll tell you how to do it if you don't already know.
