This is a fun little mmorpg. It's really low tech. It's not flashy but it is fun and challenging. Give it a try. It's about a city quarantined with a zomie threat. You are a survivor...at the start anyway.
Zombies!
Oh yeah it's a lot of fun. I log in once a day since action points are so slow, but that's okay because I don't want to spend more then an hour playing this at one time.
My survivor's name is Calyndra, add her to your contact's list and call me! :D
My guy is named Rev Hooks. I dont have a phone as of yet, but i'ladd you to contacts
I cant add you as a contact unless I can see you. :( I am currently in Tapton using Hagg Police Dept as a home base.
Yeah, I found that out too. I'm in a suburb that startes with Ga and am in a hospital. I'll be in Caiger Mall pretty soon though.
I play the extremely imaginative, RobDeHauteville, so, you'll possibly know its me if you see me. And, I'm at some Fire Station.
Skarin Way Fire Station, thats the one.
I have Vruuk, the bad ass military renegade. And Dupin, the lonley sad zombie.
WELCOME TO MALTON, BIATCHES!
I'm Etzhop.
Former Zombie, but turned to civillian by some needle happy nano technician. Bastard.
Yay, I'm in Caiger Mall!
Tapton got over run. I'm making a run for Jesentown. Word is that its a little safer there. I'm in North Blythville right now. I might be able to hook up with you at Ciager Mall in a day or two. You gonna be there for awhile?
I plan to stay at Caiger for a long time, much easier XP here.
How the hells do you navigate? Is there like a large map somewhere? I'm lost and don't know which direction is which town.
Check the FAQ, or alternatively you can click HERE!
yeah, the WIKI is helpful...for once
Is the mall a safe place to bed down for the night, or is there an area close? I've yet to hit a mall yet
Okay.. Both Vruuk and Dupin got slayed. I however have created my Yugoslavian firefighter by now, and he's made a quite good killing run against the zombies.
I read in guides that the best way to shelter is simply in buildings where no one else is at, like.. factorys, cinemas, pubs, "towers", non-description buildings.. Just somewhere out of the way, where no real crowds are gathared.
By doing this, you don't run the chance of attracting huge crowds of zombies! Simply closing the doors keeps many low level zombies out.
So, any survivors want to band together in some suburb and pick off stray zombies?
I got PK'd by a low life human! Not even a zombie!. I guess this is a growing trend. I'm still gonna head to ciager mall and try to get a revive at the church near there.
I made it to St Isidore's Church and managed to get revived. I will have to use that or something close as a base camp until I get enough exp to take Free Running.
Looks like Caiger Mall is about to be attacked by what people claim 200 or more zombies. I'll stick around and run out when the time comes.
Nice. Should be fun :evil:
Nightfire are you still at the mall? I'm a little over half way to getting Free Running. I've heard the rumor of the 200 strong force you speak of, but I think they may have been rerouted or are far out yet. There is a large force of survivors in the Crossman Grove PD, I went up there on an ammo run. I misclicked on my first skill choice and took fire arms skills, so I'm slightly better with a gun than an axe at present. Its coming in handy but I'm low on ammo now. How is mall life? I figured I'd take shopping as a skill after running, if I stay around here. Might make ammo shopping a little easier.
Life at the mall is good. People are starting to panick though. About 30 zombies have started attacks, but it's nothing too bad. People in the mall keep talking about how other malls have fallen and how nearby buildings are falling. They're estimating 1-2 weeks before the zombies actually get here though. Meanwhile I'm getting huge XP finding heal kits and healing people.
I'm at Rowson Library in Kempsterbank with 2 other people.
Zombies have closed in on our area. About 200 to 300 total.
Flares going off in all directions. It's crazy. HEEEELP!!
I'm too scared to go out!
I am holed up near Craiger Mall too, in a nearby cinema. I don't have free running. I got meele and axe proficency. (40% hit chance for 3 damage with an axe)
I am getting free running next, and I am going to be the Gimli of that mall.
I got free running and am now in the mall. I had no idea there were this many people here. I think we can handle a few hundred zombies. I'm slim on ammo, but I still have my trusty axe.
i've got lots of ammo clips...
..but no gun
Just a baseball bat!
heh, I have three pistols and a shot gun. At present I think I only have three bullets and one slug.
Nightfire, is there a part of the mall you stay in so I can easily find your name instead of wading through the hundreds of them?
I stay in SE Corner of the mall, and I usually just get healing kits and heal people for XP. When the zombies come I'll help defend though if my gun skills are up to par.
I am inside the mall too. SW currently, gonna be in SE too then. I got a gun and some clips, however I got 40% with my axe. Pwnage!
Heh, just started that. Funny game -look for the avid consumer Gold Blondie, armed of a cellphone and a spraycan :twisted:
Other than that, I'm feeling lost in the Pescodside in the Mapstone Building.
Where's the mall!?
the mall we are all in is split between Chudleyton and Darvall Heights.
Nightfire and Voular, do either of you have cell phones? Nightfire I added you to my contacts, finally. I've got a little more ammo and my axe is as sturdy as ever. It sounds like the Mall Tour is on its way. I'm gonna start excelerating my killing schedule to get ready.
Ok, you got me. I'm in as Panama Lane. Haven't got my bearings yet, but I'll find you guys.
Just added you to my contacts list Hook. Welcome to Caiger mall! I usually search the drug store and heal for XP. When mall tour comes I hope Caiger stands up well. It looks like all the survivors from the other malls are coming to Caiger, so I expect a victory on our side.
Heh, found a bottle of wine. At least my character can get drunk if she's ever to die.
I'm currently hunkered down in a Car Repair Shop in West Grayside. Needless to say, it's going to be awhile before I can get my sorry ass to any of you guys.
you could make it in a couple days. The only real gamble is finding a safe place along the way....and hords of zombies. I made the trip from Tollyton in two days. I got PK'd on the way, but I got revived at the church near the mall.
Meh, made a character who's having no luck at all, but Im dropping him.
So now I've made Finch Gambkar, your happy-go-lucky fireboy! Swinging axe action included!
I'll make it down to the mall ASAP, not too far. Be there by Monday I hope.
I got a cellphone. (Character name is: Vasiljev) However, I just disovered I am in CALVERT mall... erhm.. Right, I'll be RIGHT over :P
After we band together in Caiger, I found a nice place nearby we can go to. I was dumb and ran out of AP last night, so I gotta head to St. Isadore before I can join you guys though.
>.<
Long live the Underdark Special Forces!
Garem Long live the Underdark Special Forces!
I think the lad might be onto something. Should we creat our own Underdark player faction?
I'm on my way to the mall...I found out I was on the other side of the city (and someone tried to kill me in my old safe spot)
I still have no weapons! :(
GaremI think the lad might be onto something. Should we creat our own Underdark player faction?
I think it's a good idea. You're helpless on your own.
[rubs his hands together as his cleverly disguised plan comes together]
Just being an informal, organized group would make it a lot more fun. Being alone and getting shot down everytime you miscalculate the AP required to make it to the revive points (damn you Zombie Hunters, damn you) isn't so hot. Given some time and practice, we could get a lot more done with a small tactical team.
Perhaps our good forums administrators could set up a little forum for us to use so we don't all swamp this thread. We can put a little character background, skills, plans, or other pertinant info there and be out of everybody else's way- but being on a webpage we all frequent.
Edit: Adding on to this now.
I looked into a few potential bases for a small group and it didn't take long to come upon Quarlesbank. Notice the buildings from the middle and right areas. Everything we'd need is right there, including the Calvert Mall, which I hear is currently overrun. Especially in the wake of a possible recapture by the human resistance, this could be a great spot. I think Voular is near there right now, can you give us the status of Calvert Mall?

I think it'd be a nice idea of they'd be willing to set up a usergroup and private forum.
Alright fellas, my crazy firefighter with beer,wirecutter,wine and mobil phone is in Woolmyngton Alley Fire Station. I need a bit help to know which way to come. I'm hiding here and getting drunk. I could use company.
EDIT: I'm in deep trouble! I just take a look on the map and found out, that my fire station is numbered [91,92], the calvert mall and quarlesbank is [25, 9 ] I'm like on the other side of the whole place! I need to run a hell of a way to get there.
I am currently in Caiger Mall, SE. Can everyone post their character names and where they're at? (Or if you're survivor or zombie?)
Status at Calvert, I just left there an hour ago. It was up and running. Looked like a decent amount of survivors. (atleast over 200 I'd guess.) But I was only in SE part. And on my way over to Caiger I only encountered 3 zombies, I killed one.
Anyway. My character is "Vasiljev" and is standing at 19,28 SE Caiger Mall, for those with GPS unit or brains enough to check a map :P

You guys are quite hooked on this game, right? :lol:
Rens, bumbling doctor at St. Innocent's hospital in the quiet little suburb of Mornington. If any of you ever get tired of those busy malls, Mornington is a nice vacation.
Coldburn You guys are quite hooked on this game, right? :lol:
Just a little, hehe, but it's hard to get hooked on a game where you can move once every 30 minutes. Just a good waste of time in the office.
Well, Gold Blondie was eaten alive and infected - Now look for Mr Law, the cop, currently in North Blythville.
Robby Smith Lvl 1 Scout About 1 day away from the Caiger Mall
Sheesh, can't get into Caiger without Free Running. What the crap.
Found you Garem and added you to my contacts - In the library just under the mall.
Etzhop Pagram Library (just below Caiger Mall) [20, 29]
I'm alseep outside. Someone come protect me! :P
Heh, I'm there too!
Underground Special Forces Sounds look a good idea.
If anyone doesn't have the battleplan(revive point, infoforum and so on) for Craiger, poke me. I can PM it to you.
(Character: Vasiljev, still in Craiger Mall SE)
Etzhop in the library. add me to contacts. kthxbi
:P
Voular, come to the Library and we can add you to contact and such.
Colin, you staying as a human? Or going back to the rotten army?
I ran out of AP's when I first arrived at the Library. So I fell asleep outside the barricades. When I next logged in, I was dead. So I rose up and went one step down to where there was a battle going on. SallyDoGood then revived me with her Nano injection and I ran back up to the Library, this time, into the building.
But I suppose I want to remain a human.
For now...
When you edit your profile (by clicking your name on below the map), you can fill in a group field. We should fill ours up with something.
How about "Life Inc."? Corny, but the best I can come up with right now. >.< Anybody else got group ideas?
Also, my character Calyndra will be in Pagram tonight so you guys can add her to your contacts list.
I'm on my way to caiger. I got chased by horde of 300 zombies, so I had to hide for a while :P
Edit: Duh.. I had low hp from those zombies and now a human came and pwned me... Well..
On my way to Craiger, but its not close. It may take a day or two to get there.
Okay, Standing inside Pagram Library now then. Everyone is saying there are hundreds of zeds incoming.
...
Geez.
Just paranoia. There was a group of 70+ that I pwned only 5 spaces SE yesterday... and by Pwned, I mean I did about 15 damage to an unidentifiable zombie.
Phear the axe.
Names under consideration: Underdark Special Forces Underground Special Forces Life Inc.
I like Underground Special Forces. As for myself, I just got revived at St. Isodores, and if I can get cured of my infection, I'll make my way over to Caiger Mall (4 blocks away.)
Update: Got healed, I'll be at Caiger in an hour. Everyone who can get there should do so as soon as possible, because it looks like the Mall Tour will be there soon with about 400 Zombies, by the sounds of it.
Unless you have free running, you have to come into the Library immediately south of the southeast corner of the mall. 50 or so of us are holed up there for now.
400 zombies? Posh, that ain't nothin'.
Now, what's our evac plan? :D Seriously.
I took the liberty of starting a Wiki page for our group. Feel free to change anything on it. http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Underground_Special_Forces
Maybe somebody that knows more about IRC than me could set up a room for us.
Cool logo! Good idea, we can use the wiki page to organize.
Gah! My strongest weapon is my pipe, with 10% to hit! I ran out of ammunitions. Still hiding around Caiger, hoping I'll get some ammo one day.

I've signed up with my doctor, Rens. I believe PanamaLane is staying in the same hospital that I am right now.
LazyandConfused Everyone can sign in here if they'd like. It will give us a better idea of numbers and member status.
Ack, how? Do I have to create a wiki account?
Yeah, but it's simple. Just type in username and password and poof. Off you go.
I've got a decent ammo supply and my axe is as sharp as ever. It was real quiet last night. I'm ready to do some killin'
Don't kill me :P I'm as a zombie near the caiger mall. I wan't to be human again.. *cry*
Where do you find ammunitions?!? Or at least, a better melee weapon than a pipe with 10% to hit?
I got bitten and am infected. A med kit will fix me up, so if you are in the area, hook me up. Located in the McMullin Museum in Lurkinwood. Making my way to Craiger.
Staring Death Where do you find ammunitions?!? Or at least, a better melee weapon than a pipe with 10% to hit?
For better then 10%, you have to take skills. Ammunition can be found in gunshops and the gunstore in malls.
I know, it's hard when you start. :( But once you're on your feet it's all good.
Staring Death Where do you find ammunitions?!? Or at least, a better melee weapon than a pipe with 10% to hit?
I dont have the shopping skill, which allows you to pick which store you want to loot in malls, so I check police depts for ammo and guns. You have to search a lot. You can find a fire axe a fire depts. I think that is the best melee weapon. Check the wiki for a more detailed run down on what can be found where and the odds.
PanamaLane I got bitten and am infected. A med kit will fix me up, so if you are in the area, hook me up. Located in the McMullin Museum in Lurkinwood. Making my way to Craiger.
I'll try to catch up with you and give you some treatment, but I'll need to store up some APs first.
Secutor I'll try to catch up with you and give you some treatment, but I'll need to store up some APs first.
Be careful, I headed down there with the same intent and got killed by a renegade zombie. There's almost no safehouses.
Roger. *Stays in safe hospital and hordes FAKs and exp.*
Mall Tour '06 (A group of 400+ zombies) are coming to Caiger Mall. Should we find a new place to go immediately or stick around a little longer? Or are we all up for staying for the big fight?
I want to see the fight go down. There's got to be over 1000 survivors barricaded in that mall.
As a side note, do we have anyone that can revive Zombies? I got killed again. :oops:
I'm staying. Caiger has a history of holding strong. We've close to 1000 in the mall with at least another 500 in surrounding buldings. I think this will be sweet when it hits.
Sounds good. Guess I'll stay too, unless it gets too bad.
It seems like its the calm before the storm. I havent seen much for zombies lately, and there is talk that there are others malls on the list before we get hit. I think we have time to prepare. People are showing up in droves to help defend. I cant wait.
I'm still in Pagram library, got infected by a zombie. The mall is completely barricaded, so those in there, don't leave unless you intend to hold up inside a building outside the mall.
I'm in West Becktown, holed up in a police station with 71 other people who weren't there when I logged out yesterday. I could get to Caiger Mall with the action points I have today, but since I don't have Free Running, it probably wouldn't be worth it at all. I think I'm going to stick around nearby and try to get some XP and free running before I attempt getting over there.
There are two entry points that are kept at a level that allow people in. The warehouse right by the mall and the church a few squares away.
Can you enter Caiger without free running from one of the non-fully barricaded buidlings?
I thought was what free running did.
Pagram Library is a Mall Entry as well. So head on down there if you need access to the mall.
Garem Can you enter Caiger without free running from one of the non-fully barricaded buidlings?I thought was what free running did.
Nope, free running lets you go from building to building without having to leave, move a square, and enter. Saves lots of AP.
Started a vote on the wiki. If you haven't put your name down yet, do so.
Also, there were some zombies in Pagram. I barricaded the place, killed both of them and threw the corpses out. Pagram should be safe for a little while.
Garem Can you enter Caiger without free running from one of the non-fully barricaded buidlings?I thought was what free running did.
I was just trying to suggest that there are safe places near the mall that you can use until free running comes along
How do you change your profile?
Click on your name below the map on the left. Then go to edit profile.
I'm in the area, but being that Pagram is now borded up, I've been wandering around, taking cheap shots at zombies and looking for ammo. I'm hoping to earn enough xp to get free running within the next couple days.
Its starting to get interesting. I went on patrol yesterday and saw a lot more than I usually do. Bless your weapons.
The police station to the north of the mall has a bunch of survivors held up in it. I'm using that as a base until I get enough xp to take free running and finally get into the mall.
Finally made it into Caiger Mall.
Character name is Masiedin, and I'm chilling in the SW corner of the mall at the moment.
I got free run now. W00T!
man it is gettin ugly on the streets. Night fire if ya need some exp, I need healing. :D I havent played when so many others were online at the same time before. It really changes the game
Yes, it's a lot more intense. Me gusta!
Hookswords Night fire if ya need some exp, I need healing. :D
I think NightFire is out for the week. I could heal you. But... I'm a day away from Caiger. :(
Ambrose Crownguard is a level 3 soldier currently holed up at the Gillett Place Police Dept in Randallbank. He'll eventually make his way towards the mall you're at, but it'll be a long journey.
Still hanging around the police station, more people join our numbers daily, its a really nice place to be for now, as most of the attention seems focused around the mall and stray zombies are easy picking. Made lvl two but took pistol training instead of free run. The way I see it, more hits adds up to more xp which will allow for free run quickly. So far it seems to be working out, but it'll be at least a couple days before I see the inside of craiger.
I'm hanging in St Godric's Hospital. Someone changed me back to human and now I'm owning some zombies every once in a while and camping here.
I'm back!
Also, kotenku and shattenjager you guys should hook up your names on the wiki. Nothing much happens there but it's handy to know what's up and down now and then.
What's the scoop? I see on the WIKI that we are bailing, but where too? Have you already? Where is this discusion forum that the WIKI speaks of?
I'm pretty certain we're going to Dunnel Hills. Look on the discussion board of the wiki. There's a link to the map and I point out the area that looks promising. I think Garem will tell us when we're shipping off.
I'm already at Zephyrinus hospital in Dunnell Hills. Come on down, it's nice around here.
Yea, we're shipping off to Dunnel Hills.
I've scouted around both IG and on the WIKI. The Dunnell Hills Police Department is a really interesting organization that guards this suburb. I'm going to talk to one of their leaders IG soon, so they'll be expecting our arrival. From the looks of it, they are a light-RP group, which is nice as well.
Come to St. Mary's Hospital. Stick around there until we're all together, and we'll be rediscussing our new agenda. One of my ideas was to get outside of DH some, hunt outside the hood, then retreat back home to St. Mary's, the PD, Zephy Hospital... whatever home we choose.
I can make it to dunnell in 19 moves, no prob. I'm close to leveling so I'll do that and then make the journey. I'll call nightfire IG. I think he is the only cat I have in my contacts.
OMW
Um...where is Dunnel? I logged in finally, but I haven't seen a single name I recognize. Oroborous the zombie is very hungry and would love to try to eat you.
You would be a zombie. Check the wiki beneath your map, it will link you to a site with a map.
Where the hell is St. Mary's?
PanamaLaneWhere the hell is St. Mary's?
Dunell {8,37}
I'm at a police department near St. Mary's. Trying to reload all my shotties and maybe hook myself with a few pistols. Can't find a damn thing outside of malls. :(
the cell tower is down here so the phone is a no go. I'll make my way there soon.
Sadly true. If you need to make some runs on Caiger, head on back until your ready. I wish we could trade, I have 2 shotties, 4 shells, 2 pistols and 5 clips or something like that. >.< All I need is my axe. :)
Sorry for the confusion, yes St. Mary's in is Dunell Hills, near the SE corner.
I ran out of AP right outside of a building that was heavily barricaded. I have been zombified! O noes!
If I can even get into the damn NecroTech building which is EHB then I'll make some syringes for you.
