Urban Dead - The Official Cheap Ass Survivor Thread

wow, I feel retarded. I just wasted 20 AP searching an building for FAKs only to realize that though I clicked on the other building to move to the hospital, I was still stuck in the towers.....thats what I get for not really paying attention
 
Shit shit shit shit shit. I tried to make a run for it, but for some reason, I ran out of AP in the middle of Roftwood, there were zombies everywhere and no barricaded buildings. I like in some open Motel and there are tons of zombies around. I am pretty sure I will be dead by tonight.
 
I'm in the same boat as Darth. I got a little off track, got attacked by a bunch of zack and now I am stuck about 7 spots away and not enough AP. Zeds are everywhere and there is no place to hole up.

I don't think I'm going to make it.

Hide inside a ruined building if you have the AP.

Where are you at? I am inside the wrench hotel. Even though the Zeds are standing outside, none of them have seen me yet.
 
I was in the Copeland building with 2 AP left. For about 30 mins, I was surrounded by zeds on nearly every side. I counted over 20. As soon as one got in and tagged me, I darted east until I ran out of AP.
 
Ok what do you guys think, I have like 3AP right now. The doors to the building are open and there is one zed outside and one dead zed in the building. Should I throw the dead body out and close the doors. Or should I leave everything as it is and hope they don't notice?
 
Darn it we are moving to where my zed character is, i guess I'll move the zed out of there.
Though I just helped taked out a police dept. in the area. Opps.
 
ATTENTION EVERYONE WHO IS NOT ON THE WIKI RIGHT NOW!

Add your self, god dammit. That's the only list of CAS members - if you ain't on there, you don't get the PMs with the new orders, and you get left behind.

Also, everyone make sure their contact lists are updated with new members and changed characters.

How do you add yourself? Do you need to know HTML?
 
Just go into the Wiki's edit mode and scroll down to where the list is. Copy and paste one of the listings for someone already on there and replace their info with yours. Very straightforward. Preview before saving it.
 
First: The area I PMed everyone about last night is only temporary. We will leave it as soon as we can.

Second: Those of us who got there last night (I think me, Tyler, and CSide) will focus on securing the area for the night.

Third: Please come to the new place as soon as possible so we can get the fuck out of here!
 
Whew! Made the run with 3 ap to spare, zombies everywhere!
I took a chance and went straight through a few hoards of 30 or so.
Because the site was running fast not a one of 'em tagged me.

The entry building to the SWest is only at loose and has a few zeds inside.
Glad to find our bldg. at EHB and happy to see most have made it here.
I literally ran over Plume's body en route to the south (so close Plume!).
 
I just wasted a lot of time trying to join you in the building, hoping for a revive. However, I didn't realize that free-running does not apply to zeds, so I'm standing outside with 2 ap left.

You are revived.
 
Somehow, just somehow, I managed to survive through yesterday in zombie territory and I am now inside the Cinema. I am going to scout out a new location tonight.
 
I'm starting to wonder if staying in a big group is really the best. If we all spread out couldn't we pick away at the horde and then all retreat to a seperate barricaded building? The zeds couldn't mount a good counter attack to that. Even at my low level I have been hiding out and killing a zed every day.
 
Sure, that works when there are one or two inactives around. Problem is we're dealing with large groups. One guy just doesn't have the AP to deal with more than 3 zombies, and that's on a good RNG day. Spreading out makes it easier for them to take out the one or two survivors in a building and ruin it so others can't hide there.

How many zeds does it take to take down a good size barricade? I don't know the answer, but if it is more than a handful, I think it would work to our advantage because they couldn't all come at one building in a huge group and wipe out a large number of survivors.
 
fuck me I got killed trying to move from a building.....damn you ebay....damn you.


Do I really want to be a zombie? Not really but I guess I will try for a while.
 
Well, I found a new destination point. Just scouted it and it is very safe. If someone can send out pms for me, I'll be happy to send them the directions.
 
Holy shit on wheels I now know what you guys are talking about when you say that the zeds are just to strong.

I died right outside of the hollowtown fire station. It was very strongly barricaded. With just 40 AP (10 to stand up) I completely destroyed the barricade by just clawing at it for 40 ap.

That sucks ass.....the fire station is a starting point when you select fireman class. So that really means I could spawn kill all the new players.


Hmmm....balance anyone?
 
On Barricades: It's a 25% chance for a full-level zombie to get a good hit on the 'cades from the outside. Slightly higher from the inside.

On why we are here: It's the shortest route to the NE corner of the city, the only place where things are actually working out for us humans.

What the fuck is wrong, guys: you were all supposed to come last night! GET THE fuck OUT OF THE MUSEUM ALREADY! I don't know if this place can survive another day, and if/when it goes, then you guys have lost the only known stepping stone between the Stock and our next destination.
 
Outside the bldg, dead. With a unknown zed who is at 17hp if someone wants to take it out.
revive would be nice or i will just be a zombie for awhile.

I revived you.
 
Go on without me if you have to guys - I used up my hits to the site today playing some alts in Monroeville so I have to wait for the reset. It's 7pm eastern right?
 
Okay, Option's got a lock on our next destination. We will, however, be staying the night here for two reasons.

1: Keep this stepping-stone alive for those who have not yet left the Stock Museum.
2: Keep Fullmetal alive, who has very generously used up a crapload of AP on revives.

Those of you who have not left the Stock yet, tonight is your last chance to cut across the city. Those of us who have already arrived will be spending our AP tonight ensuring the area stays safe-ish.
 
Zeds just broke into our last spot - 2 inside and 1 person dead already. Don't think I'll make it to the reset tonight before they kill everyone.

I donated $5 to get rid of hit limit but I doubt it will be processed before my death.
