Welcome to the Dakka Dakka Urban Dead thread for the zombie group known as The Nurglings, the zombie group started by Dakka Dakka MOD Manchu.

All Dakka members are welcome to play, but everyone must follow the Code of Conduct so that we don't bring discredit to Dakka Dakka and our fellow Dakkanauts.

Our group is currently located in the Crowbank and Vinetown suburbs of the game map. Look in the southeastern portion of the city.

Sign up for the game online here: http://www.urbandead.com/. It is free and available online at all times of the day.

Game wiki here: http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Main_Page

Group Wiki Page here: http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/The_Nurglings

Once you join, set your group name in your profile to The Nurglings and post a link to your player profile here so that the other Nurglings (about 32 players) can add you to their contacts list, which allows us to identify your character online in the game. Otherwise you are just another nameless zombie to us.

Example of my profile: http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=2116070


When you begin, the game may start you in a suburb far away from the horde's current location. Just look at the Wiki map, figure out where you are and walk to join us. We need you. Those humans are not going to eat themselves!

Wiki Map

Code of Conduct in Urban Dead
1. Don't take it personal. You will die a lot and kill a lot in Urban Dead. Enjoy the street theater.
2. While having fun, behave like you would in Dakka. Do not use sexual, political, cultural, national, and racial insults.
3. No text raping or other deviant role playing.

Urban Dead Game Stats


Barricade Levels (Explanation)
Spoiler:
1 Loosely barricaded* ~99%+
2–4 Lightly barricaded ~99%
5–7 Quite Strongly barricaded 97.8%
8–10 Very Strongly barricaded 85.1%
11-13 Heavily barricaded** 61.5%
14–16 Very Heavily barricaded** 38.0%
17–21 (And possibly as high as 23) Extremely Heavily barricaded** 20.5%

From the game wiki: "Barricades have multiple levels, that show their approximate strength and indicate how many AP it will take to destroy them completely. Each level has its own intricacies and build rates."

The percentages are the chance that survivor will increase the barricade level of that type. Note that it is not easy to increase levels from 14 on up.


Thanks to everyone!

The Northwest corner is open but has no humans.

Northeast corner of the Mall:

You are inside Woodroffe Mall. Trails of looted debris litter the floors and escalators. The building has been extremely heavily barricaded. Also here are Kapa'a Boru (51HP) and George Zip (60HP).

A portable generator has been set up here. It is running low on fuel. The food court has been decorated with a carved pumpkin.

Somebody has spraypainted trucker and his baggy blasting bowel onto a wall.

There is another zombie from your horde here. It's Lumpsneeze.


Southeast corner:

You are inside Woodroffe Mall. Trails of looted debris litter the floors and escalators. The building has been quite strongly barricaded. Also here are Homibeef (60HP) and Light Saber (60HP).

A portable generator has been set up here. It is running, and powering a radio transmitter that's currently set to 26.70 MHz. One of the shops has been decorated with a carved pumpkin.

Somebody has spraypainted hear the with wind whine, see the dog star shine onto a wall.


Southwest corner:

You are inside Woodroffe Mall. Trails of looted debris litter the floors and escalators. The building has been extremely heavily barricaded. Also here are Neutron97 (60HP), KeepCalmandCarrion (60HP) and Crazy Mac (60HP).

A portable generator has been set up here. It only has a little fuel left, enough to power a radio transmitter that's currently set to 26.70 MHz. One of the shops has been decorated with a carved pumpkin.

Somebody has spraypainted your typical city involved in a typical daydream onto a wall.


Total of seven humans that need zombie love.

EDIT: Now down to six humans.

I believe the ban was that you remove your tag and stop using the old thread to coordinate your activities, I believe such a thing would also extend to this thread as well. If we called you up to help pop a building you would be playing with us once again and associated with the group in action and in deed. That is what the ban is preventing. Master of Ordinance, it might just be better if you took your zed and moved it to another suburb.

However is this a Nurglings thread, as there already is one. If this is a Nurgling thread (and there already is one), i will ignore it. If not, and it is just a generis thread then i will continue to use it as i see fit. We will see where this goes.

Nope, it's when someone posts a graphic description of raping another player in a text-based game.

OK....that was my second thought which is what i was hoping it wasn't

I figure I may as well give it a go (the game, not text raping ). Character made (Deceased Claw) and I'm slowly making my way to the group after staring in South Blythville. I made it was far as Kempsterbank before I ran (shuffled) out of AP

So what you're saying is that I've picked the perfect place to run out of AP?

As a fledgling zed, I suggest that you stick around for some of us to pull you up a meal, get you a few kills, and you grab Lurching Gait (which lets you spend 1AP to move instead of 2), and Ankle Grab (you stand up for 1AP instead of 10). From there, you're pretty much free to grab what you want. If you ever want to grab human skills, I don't suggest you take Brain Rot as it makes it harder for you get revived.

I'd seen Lurching Gait as maybe the first skill to make myself a little more mobile. How important/useful is it to have human skills as a zed?

Decently useful, there is some crossover like Scent Death and Diagnose (Scent Death is 100 more XP to get though), Body Building is useful as it grants you 10 more HP, and spending some time to find a flak jacket is good because it does the same thing as Flesh Rot but you don't have to take Brain Rot first to get it.

TBH, you'd be better off prioritizing zed skills before working on your human ones. Just avoid Brain Rot and you'll be fine.
