Once it takes a picture, killing it wont matter, you just gotta git as far as fuck away from it.

my current survivor is probably the strongest run I've ever had. I've managed to loot multiple labs, just ripped through a military depot and got some ID's so I can think about heading into a military base soon.
before I go any further though I want to purify away the lupine mutations I've gotten and go FULL ALPHA BRO UN-NATTY GAINS

Re: cataclysm dark days ahead- You just cant win
On my good run with the retarded amount of glock ammo I'd spawned in the survivor shelter and filled basically the entire basement with food and water. That was my first real time playing the game though so I intentionally went easy and made all zombies half as slow and just as durable. I've since made them far slower but far more durable to really be like George Romero zombies.

The game already has a ton of shit in it. It doesn't need longer item lists with more shit.
I don't need a dozen more varieties of vehicle turret, fifty new melee weapons, etc.
That's just bloat. That's shit.
If it actually added like...biomes and oceans and shit with new vehicles like aircraft and watercraft that would be something. Those are features.
Just shoveling more fucking random crap ontop of the game is garbage though.

Re: cataclysm dark days ahead- You just cant win
After squatting outside of a town in a derelict RV i finally managed to get it to run again. Replaced a couple wheels and installed a couple busted up solar panels i scrounged off of a wreck. I also now have quite the collection of guns, plus a compact suppressor for my USP 9mm. Getting some real mileage out of this combat knife too, it kicks ass. Time to become a rambling man of the apocalypse in my new home on wheels

Re: cataclysm dark days ahead- You just cant win
I went full autism mode scavenging parts to build up a superbike. I found a military transport truck made out of THE GOOD STUFF and stripped a couple chunks to come up with this bad boy:
It rides on two 21" armored wheels and uses a large electric motor for its powerplant.
It has two removable storage batteries, which amounts to a HUGE range on a full charge.
I have a charging station setup at my home base so I can ride in and just swap out the batteries as well.
Two trunks for storage. The one in the front is for quality-of-life items and the one in the back is for stolen goodies while out running around. 1400 total volume may not seem like much compared to your RV's but the bike is able to get to a spot and back much faster. If I see a building in the middle of a city I want to go to, I can haul ass through the city right to it. No stopping because of a bunch of wrecks and having to go on foot.
The forward trunk contains a change of tires, a jack, etc. etc. stuff you might need if shit goes bad. It also has a recharging station upgrade and I put a couple items with rechargable batteries in there so they can feed off the bike's power supply. Key items like a welder, a mess kit, and a water purifier basically replicate all the functions of a kitchen and a vehicle welder without actually taking up any space on the bike's frame. There's a steel jerrycan full of purified water in there too for drinks on the go if I'm out longer than my normal carrying food supply will last. Bedroll and sleeping bag. Still looking for a tent.
The whole frame is heavy duty so collisions hardly do any damage. The front section has spiked plating to plow through people, the rest of the bike is plated with military ceramic. I managed to forage some upgraded panels off some random super car on the highway, then reinforced them. Has three of those to help charge faster while parked.
In the winter this could be bad for some but I have bionics to help offset the temperature so I can handle it. I'm not sure how I would dress up to ride this thing around in the dead of winter if I didn't. Survivor winter gear alone probably wouldn't cut it.

Sleeping in an actual bed with blankets equalizes your temperature too. Just go grab a bunch of random clothes and toss them on your bed pile so you can be as warm as possible.

Re: cataclysm dark days ahead- You just cant win
Yeah, I was impressed when I had found out that blankets and pillows on a bed actually help you sleep better.
Pillows I think give you a flat bonus to your sleep score and clothing items give a positive based on their warmth (up to a maximum, at which point it stops accumulating). This is why pillows are just a generic "other" item but different kinds of blankets are considered clothes (though you can also wrap yourself up in them when running around if you don't have sufficient cold-weather gear, the emergency blanket in the evac shelter lockers is actually really good for this since you can also pack it up into a smaller item when not wearing it).
In the beginning of the game if you want to go full nomad you can dig makeshift shelters and then just stuff a ton of random clothes you forage for in there and it's like big ol' nest.
ANYWHO
Now that I've got Akira's motorcycle I'm building up a fort of my own using a ton of constructions and shit. I've never gotten this far in the game, usually just sticking with the nomad life. How do you guys usually progress in phases? It seems like my gameplay style is like
1) Night raid foraging on the city
2) Daytime attacks on the city once my skills have built up some
3) Limited range foraging with a salvaged vehicle
4) Road trip in an RV, not tied down anywhere
5) Establish mega fort

Re: cataclysm dark days ahead- You just cant win
Sleep is handled pretty oddly in Cataclysm. It's a value that slowly decreases over the day, and if it's greater than 1, you can sleep. Being over a bed increases it by 5, being over a makeshift bed increases it by 4, and being over a bedroll increases it by 3. Floors increase it by 1. Turfs that have a movement cost like solid ground or anything outside add whatever the movement cost of their terrain is to your sleepiness so sleeping outside is probably pretty difficult unless you've been awake for days.

Re: cataclysm dark days ahead- You just cant win
Fuck me there's so much cool shit in this game. I'm just sperging out over the advanced power systems. You can convert a bunch of items to run off of UPS power that normally wouldn't, and then use a bionic that lets items draw power from you instead of the UPS. Congrats you now have a bionic chainsaw that is FUELED BY YOU STALKING YOUR ENEMIES.
I'm adding drive by wire controls to my bike so I can control that shit via remote terminal (and hopefully later with my brain via CBM). The weakest link on it is my flesh and blood body. If I add a collector to it I'll be able to just run everyone and everything while vacuuming up anything they drop. Fucking ridiculous.

Could be the NPCs are attracting fuckhueg hordes of zombies and are attacking/getting attacked by them in your reality bubble. It should clear up once either the NPCs or the zombies die.
In other news something is exploding in my neighbourhood so it's either a survivor with a grenade launcher who has died or it's a tank drone because I heard lots of gunfire too.

Re: cataclysm dark days ahead- You just cant win
Try trading with NPCs if you go near htem. I found my chainsaw from the starting NPC's inventory.
Though it does make sense. The chainsaw has the highest raw damage of any melee weapon in the game.

I slammed into a house going 59mph while foraging. RIP.
...haha no wait my vehicle was still listed as "like new" condition and I wasn't injured at all despite turning someone's living room into the new off-ramp for the interstate.
God I love this thing.

Re: cataclysm dark days ahead- You just cant win
I found a gunsmithing workshop in a gunshop that I may or may not have collapsed the roof of trying ot break into looking for guns. Sadly the only thing in there was a bunch of ammo cases and magazines but if I ever get the mind to it I can go use the tools there to print off a fuckload of ammo.

Re: cataclysm dark days ahead- You just cant win
The only good guns are shotguns. They hit like a freight train. You could invest a ton of time and ammo getting good with another gun, but I've found that just packing 10-15 throwing knives beats out every other gun I've ever used in any playthrough. It probably helps that I've mutated and bionic'ed my way up to super strength but these things are doing around 40 damage a hit, can be picked back up after being thrown, don't require reloading, and are fast as fuck to throw.
When standing there waiting for someone to get next to me for melee I can just hammer the (t)hrow key (I assigned the knives the t key in my inventory as well so it's just double-tap t to kill shit) to become Dio Brando. They have a really good amount of range/accuracy aswell (again, the high str and dex probably helps this a lot) and my throwing skill isn't even that high (maybe 6 or so?).
I guess guns would be better if you are playing a low str character and basically can't use any other weapons in the game but that's completely retarded for so many reasons. STR dictates your carry weight and HP as well, making it a dump stat is an exercise in futility.

Re: cataclysm dark days ahead- You just cant win
Shotguns are good yes, but they're also the loudest gun in the game and if I fire them near my base I'll have 9 gorillion zombies coming after me. So until I've gotten more ammo than there are stars in the sky for my shotgun I can't really utilize it effectively. In other news the same gunsmithing workshop had an assload of gun mods so I have a glock .40 straight out of /k/ and I modded the shit out of an M4 too.

Re: cataclysm dark days ahead- You just cant win
Yeah it's definitely some bullshit going on with NPC's. I opened up the debug menu and looked at what's going on. There are 19 NPC's wandering around nearby and none of them can decide what they want to do so they keep stopping to figure out a plan.
I used the "Kill all NPC's" command and got a performance uptick, but I don't think it actually got them all. I need to genocide these fuckers. At least the zombie hordes don't cause all this fucking lag.

Watch out for NPCs with 40mm grenade launchers
One was blowing up hordes of zombies until a zombie kid went between her and a wall and she's paste now.

Re: cataclysm dark days ahead- You just cant win
Fun fact if you don't deal the finishing blow to an NPC you don't feel guilty about killing an innocent.
I hacked a person with my machete so hard they flew backwards into a car and the impact killed them.
No negative moodlet. So either it works or I've just gotte used to murder.

yeah it's not deathblows not on how much damage you did. Hard to make it happen in practice.
