Torn Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 So I just had an epic battle with about 15 zombies and took them all out with an axe. And then a crawler, who I couldn't see under the mound of corpses on the ground, bit me. I'm at 2.5 months, I don't want to die Is there any % chance a bite will not zombify you? I bandaged up and haven't got any sickness symptoms yet, it's been just over 1 day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EuphoriaToRegret Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Sadly, there is a very small chance of actually not being infected from a bite. Hopefully, you aren't bitten. However, if you do start getting the symptoms. The only chance of survival is to eat plenty of food, so your health never keeps dropping. There is no cure.I've heard you still die after about 3 days of being infected though. So, hope that you're clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torn Posted November 19, 2013 Author Share Posted November 19, 2013 Well I'm day 4 since it happened, and I never got the fever/nauseated symptoms. Talk about a lucky call. It was a bite & a scratch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lichtqu4nt Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 ... I also survived bite & scratch of a crawler (hate them ) to live almost a month with everything set up to live forever (at least it felt so). Then the game crashed while I tried to loot a house and went from 2nd floor back to 1st floor.Reloading provides me with a rollback of about a day.I went another route that day and got again bitten by another crawler - and died soon after, didn't even have the chance to eat as fast as my health drops (looks like the zombie didn't have brushed his teeth for ages then) - and yes, I bandaged the wounds and tried to recover in my safe-house. No chance.So if you ask me: if you don't evolve any pain symptoms soon after the bite/scratch, you got away this time - to die another day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xadhoom Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 I hate crawlers, they always injure me when i find them inside the houses (and can't quite see them) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EuphoriaToRegret Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 I hate crawlers, they always injure me when i find them inside the houses (and can't quite see them)It's even worse when you go through an area that you've already fought in, so zombie corpses are littering the floor, and a freaking zombie laying on the ground takes a nice bite out of my manly legs.

Torn Posted November 19, 2013 Author Share Posted November 19, 2013 I need help!, I was zombified and looked at the status and tava la zombified I use? I don't quite understand. Your status says "zombified"? If so, there's no hope. You're already dead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaniard Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Torn, you got lucky! After a few months of playing I have yet to survive a bite, and yeah, typically you know within 12 hours if you're infected. You start getting nauseated pretty quickly.

After a few months of playing I have yet to survive a bite, and yeah, typically you know within 12 hours if you're infected. You start getting nauseated pretty quickly. Yeah I'm totally lucky. This is the first bite I've ever survived. Since posting this thread an hour ago, I've also been scratched 2 more times and I'm still alive, hah. That leaves me with I believe 5 scratches and a bite now.

(it broke halfway through tried to oush them over and stomp them to death.) My worst experience was when my bat broke mid-fight with 2-3 zombies, then my player immediately pulled out the shotgun and I accidentally fired a round, attracting another 30+ zombies to me. Needless to say I didn't come back from that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tis what i prefer to use over the axe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamikaze Snark Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 I've just survived a bite, so I can confirm that it is possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexx Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Yup it is doable. But only a tiny % chance. Slightly more with construction worker career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doomblood66 Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 I've survived a bite, so it is feasible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lichtqu4nt Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 ... I don't think construction worker career works like that. If you were bitten, chance for infection is at 96% (wiki) for every player/career. But with "thick skinned"-trait you are less likely to get scratched (or bitten?) than the average guy next door Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
