Man the stories on here are so good Didn't have anything to contribute until today. I had found a big two-storey house that I was going to use a temporary safe-house for quick supply runs in and out of the city centre (West Point). My bigger safe-house was a fair trek in so I thought it a good idea to establish a temporary base of operations. I did the usual PZ thing, hung sheets on all the windows and crept up to every door, blood soaked, nail ridden baseball bat at the ready and cautiously hit 'E', clearing out each room. There were a few zeds in one of the bedrooms but nothing that Karen Miller couldn't handle. Incidentally, Karen is very claustrophobic and gets extremely panicked the moment she heads indoors, reducing her vision and accuracy. But she's OK. She gets by on long (athletic perk induced) trips outdoors running and scavenging for loot. Anyway. So I cleared out all the rooms, two-storey house with quite a few places to hide, but once it was all clear, I was knackered and lay in the master bedroom's big clean double bed until morning (covering up the upstairs windows with sheets too of course, a lesson I had to learn the hard way, but thats a story for another day...) So, morning comes, I eat a can of tuna and a packet of chips before setting out on a day's looting adventure. I have a few near misses but no scratches and I found a good haul of food and supplies. Elated and relaxed I wander back to my safe-house and when I look over, I see something frightening. Through some glitch in the wall visibility I can see there's a shadowy shambler in my home (it looks to be the bathroom). 'But how,' I think to myself. 'Didn't I clear every room? another must have snuck in' I conclude. So I climb in through the window and creep to the bathroom door, swing it open and to my dismay. Nothing. Ok so now i'm freaked out. Did PZ glitch some random zed in and out of my house for no inexplicable reason? I know this is an alpha build, but i feel like in my short time with the game, its better than that. And then I see it. Adjacent to the bathroom, with a door on a north facing wall (i.e. difficult to see on my initial patrol) is a 2x1 walk in closet. I tremble as I open the door and 3 zombies rush me (two walkers and a crawler). In Karen's panicked state she can hardly see a thing but she manages to dispatch the shambling duo (inelegantly) just in time for the crawler to make its way in the main room. I circle round and smash its rotten head in before catching my breath. I know hidden zeds isn't the scariest thing in the world. But what really wore me down? They were in the house the whole time. I slept in that house. Thinking I was safe. And that's the scariest thing that's happened to me so far (sorry for the lengthy ramble, but I feel like if anyone is going to appreciate my detail laden close encounter, its fellow PZ forum goers
