For those that just love rolling around with 5 or more people

Hell, I like it when it's me vs 5. Though I might only take out one or two, and a vehicle.. and the other three proceed to make sweet loving to my eyesockets after that.. it's worth it imo. -
Oh? I'm buddy buddy with old Slender up there at green mountain. O'course I had to give him my firstborn daughter, then my son, and promise my soul to him in the afterlife. He does get ESPN though. Yeah, just point one of his arms west, and the other straight up, and have him open his mouth... you'll hear the New Zealand children's choir... he might have eaten them.

Vehicles shouldn't be rare. Let the experiment continu.

I'm fairly sure the OP has it right.. in any kind of infected apocalypse, there would be droves of people fleeing the cities, paying for gas if they could, stealing it if they couldn't. It'd likely be one of the first things to go. I can understand how Cherno and Elektro don't have any big ships in their harbors, as those would peace out asap as well, likely filling their hulls with precious go juice, and emptying the tanks at the docks. Unfortunately, this mod can't capture those first days of panic.. the looting, the rioting, the murdering for gasoline/food/shelter, as the virus spreads exponentially.Those who stayed, become them... the slavering, drooling horde. We don't see the immediate aftermath.. slaughtered and butchered remnants of women and children. Some people lying in bars with guns resting in line with the giant holes in their skulls, the floors slick with blood and tripe.. some chose not to go out that way. The freeways, side roads, railways.. all congested with yet more gruesome evidence of the spreading virus. Husks of burned cars, filled with husks of people, always painted red with dried blood... the occasional bloody handprint on a window or door. These were the ones that ran out of gas. Thusly, there would be a veritable plethora of vehicles sprawled along the roads, many of which would surely be in running order.. and yet, there would be an absolute dearth of fuels to drive them. Your dream car, that nice SLK550, Jaguar... not useable. From this we could extrapolate that there wouldn't be electricity either. Power stations would burn through their remaining coal within a week, if they were automated. The nuclear cities might have a month, but the lights would dwindle ever lower until they finally flickered out. That GPS, those NVGs..that flashlight..radios.. batteries would become the new gold, as any survivor would surely hope against hope to hear the governments broadcast a message telling of safety, and shelter. Then, the bandits come. They have the gas and the vehicles, the weapons...Needing what you have, or don't have... it doesn't matter. They take it, anything. If they leave you alive, you are lucky, or they didn't want to waste ammo. So the surviving survivors are then pushed out of the cities, naked, with maybe a flashlight, a scrap of cloth, a bag.... Choose your Gender, and be ready to fight. -
