This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

Today's game is some more Zomboid. We played some more of our save where we're camped out in the Military Apartment. We even got another Friend on (Who we call Chef). He owned the game but never got to give it much of a try until now, so we decided to rectify that (plus he also helped us board up windows and burn corpses).

When he spawned in though we had to go pick him up from Muldraugh. I hotwired a car and drove it to get him. On our way there and back i nabbed a Duffle bag for him and we robbed a beer store for Beer (For medical supplies obviously, though Jerry may have had a few beers on the way home. No one tell the cops.)

When we got back, i had wanted to get my Aiming skill up for later, so i went out with a gun and just started taking shots at any Zombies i saw. The community center was largely open and filled with Zombies, so i went there to build up my skill. It went pretty well.

On the walk back though it was really fog (which is where the main picture was). I ended up sneaking through the alley's and back streets to be safe since i couldn't see an inch in front of my face. I luckily made it back without incident though.

While i was out i was also collecting supplies, which i ended the night unloading the supplies in a room. We're wanting too open the world up as a server for my friend group to play on (instead of having to have me host), so we're hoarding supplies until then so we're prepared since we're expecting some of our friends too be more than a little offensive with their playstyle. We're stocking up mainly on weapons and medical supplies to defend ourselves.

There's a world of difference between day 1 and the current build as well. Definitely take another look if you haven't recently. Devs finally waking up haha.

Favourite part so far has been the lighting system & ragdolls. If you whip a car fast enough in reverse and hit a sweet spot on the swing around, you can send Z flying like baseballs.

I'll have to check it out because one of my favorite things to do is pelt zombies with a car and watch them flop over (said the completely sane man)
