I think it's from a movie, but I never found out the name of it... It was really old, but these govt dudes put some kind of agent in a church basement, and it broke open, reviving the graveyard, right? The zombies could talk, too, and eating flesh took away the pain of being undead... Is that what you were referencing? Oh man, I must be really old. Return of The Living Dead series. Tarman is in quite a few of them but not all. I think a zombie either saying, 'brains!' or a speech bubble with 'brains!' would be pretty funny!

In my opinion, I don't think bites or scratches should be 100% fatal. I think it should depend on how bad the wound is, how quickly it was treated and how it was treated. If it's a wound, then aputate and cauterize the wound if it's an appendage. If it's a bite or scratch to something other than an appendage and amputation is not possible, perhaps the infection chance increases. In any case, I'm really glad the developers included sandbox options on infection mortality.

I'm feeling woosy just thinking of getting those injuries and having to perform medical treatment on myself. I can't stand the sight of blood.

Thanks folks! Definitely loving this game even though it's still in alpha. I've never seen anything quite like a game like this in terms of scope and features. I guess that's one of the reasons I had so many idea. I feel like almost anything is possible with the engine. Do you think some of these things can be modded into the game by players later on? That would be great if it was possible.

Hi King jjwpenquin. No offense taken. I've owned the game since it was first released. I didn't read all of this 21 page thread since it was late at night and I wanted to get my thoughts down before I went to sleep. Would you giving me a link to where certain ideas were banned? Did they put in why certain ideas were banned or was it just banned without an explanatin. Thanks for your help.

I'd like to see zombie traps. Zombie deadfal trap. Pit traps. Nothing too exotic. Molitovs. Just ways to thin the herd without hand to hand or firearms. Yeah, I know we got the campfire trap. Wild game hunting with bows. Trap rabbits, squirrels, birds etc. with snares, cages or deadfalls. Maybe some bear traps. create armor to reduce zombie damage (i.e. leather jackets and pants, boots, gloves). Helmets, riot shields, etc. APC (just kidding). No I'm not. But we'd need gas and some kind of mechanic skill to drive it. And ammo for the guns. tree forts / hides. Hides to climb and escape those pesky hordes when you don't want to lead them home. "Don't go through that door Flyboy, you'll lead them right up the stairs! Run over to us!" - DOTD '79. A way to put zombie guts on us / create zombies on leashes aka Walking Dead / zombie camoflauge. NPC's shooting, looting and trying to club you to death. Gangs of NPC either helping or hindering you. A pet "X" (snail, cockroach, ferret, snake, spider, lizard etc. or a pink pegasus). Reduce boredom and increase happiness. Radio for air strike / artillery / reinforcements (road paver). Way to build underground bunker. - stress from noise + restfullness + durability Military base. - shload of zombies in there. Super secure too (perimeter fence). But rewards. Huge weapon arsenal. AP mines. Claymores. Flamethrower, m249 SAW's, grenades. Add vehicles to base (i.e. strykers, humvees, Bradleys, M1 Abrhams, etc.) working or needing repairs. Logistics - food, gas, clothing, body armor, night vision goggles, etc.) Marina - with boats and a neighboring island where you can set up base. Only problems will be the npcs and zombies on it. And initial limited resources. Police station - same reasons. Same impediments. Hospital - medical supplies and zombies. Power plant - for scrap and possible power restoration. Hydro plant. Solar panels for home. Going to bed. Bye for now.

When will NPC's be back? Feels like almost a year since they were removed.

Brings me to black screen and then drops me back to windows. Running windows 7 64 bit with latest JRE 32 bit. Is there a way I can download the non steam version?
