Feralfox 12 Posted January 6, 2014 (edited) It all began in the water of a beach, I was up to my ankles in the stuff. Quickly deciding that I should move forward I dash onto sandy reaches of the ocean and head northwestward onto what seemed to be a hilly grassy plain. On this I found a few houses, thankfully not running into the walking dead just yet. I carefully search the houses and come across a green backpack levitating against the side of the wall and some camoflauge pants on top of what seemed to be a bookshelf, as well as a rotten orange and some canned tuna lying on the floor. Finished in the houses I continue to head westward until I run Into a large factory building, running through the front doors I can hear the screech of what one could only assume was my first encounter with the dead, knowing I was probably being chased I sprinted through the hallway of the factory hoping to find some sort of weapon considering I still hadn't found one and fists clearly aren't a weapon you should use against something that doesn't feel pain. Near the end of the hall I come into a small square shaped room, a ladder leading upwards and double doors that led back outside. Thankfully I had to take neither, in the center of the room was a large red axe, and in the corner a monkey wrench. I quickly grabbed the axe and flipped around to face the zombie that was right behind me. After the zombie charged into the room and took a clear bite out of my shoulder I swung the axe thrusting it into my pursuer twice ending it. Free from the chase I decide to go outside through the double doors and take a look around, there appeared to be another small factory building to my west which I begin to head towards. Around 30 seconds later about halfway to the other factory I can hear footsteps approaching behind me, I quickly turn in order to face whatever was chasing me. Surprisingly, it was a large black man also wielding an axe who swiftly stabbed the axe into my face ending my life. My screen went black and I could still hear the man taking my rotten fruit before he continued on his way. Edited January 6, 2014 by Feralfox 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

broguenz 333 Posted January 6, 2014 (edited) Well don't get too excited about the next 80% of encounters either.No place for pacifism in this game, but their are friendlies around and helpful persons etc that second it takes to think, am i going to pull the trigger, can either get you killed or lead to a more interesting outcome editI'm being optimistic when I say 80% too Edited January 6, 2014 by RogueNZ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Feralfox 12 Posted January 6, 2014 I suppose I can't really blame the guy considering he 1 shot me with the axe, so I guess I coulda done the same. Though personally I wouldn't have :P. But its cool, now im just stuck in the wall of some random house I chose to explore. Been trying to vault out for like 20 mins and cant suicide or start a new character so guess I might be screwed.

Nanoha 37 Posted January 6, 2014 (edited) For the love of God, paragraphs. You clearly have some brains from what you've written so be kind enough to make it easier on the eyes. No one likes a wall of text :(. Edited January 6, 2014 by Nanoha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Feralfox 12 Posted January 6, 2014 (edited) Haha sorry ;), I even tried to begin the paragraph with a tab like a real story would, but no, can't do that :P. Nvm Nanoha, I think I just unintentionally became a smartass. <3 Edited January 6, 2014 by Feralfox Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Window Licker 504 Posted January 7, 2014 Well don't get too excited about the next 80% of encounters either.No place for pacifism in this game, but their are friendlies around and helpful persons etc that second it takes to think, am i going to pull the trigger, can either get you killed or lead to a more interesting outcome editI'm being optimistic when I say 80% too depends on location, from my experience its about 95%-100% kos chance in Electro, Cherno and any military building. Out in the countryside I've found it drops to 50% or lower if you talk to them, make yourself visiable, but for the love of god stand near cover and have a rough idea what your gonna do if they start shooting aka I'm gonna run like hell this way 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kocot 35 Posted January 7, 2014 a large black man also wielding an axe who swiftly stabbed the axe into my face Axes aren't meant for stabbing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Feralfox 12 Posted January 7, 2014 Well when a sharp edged axe makes a clean swipe to your face, it stabs a clear 90 degree gash straight down the middle. Might be one hell of a big stab, but its a stab if its entering your body in the way that axe entered me, haha. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
