Pixel Joint Forum: Urban Dead

Message

   Filax's back to th forums! YAY!

Ahem...

Urban Dead? Anyone heard of? Anyone plays?

"Urban Dead is a free-to-play browser-based multi-player
game where you play the survivor or victim of a zombie outbreak in a
quarantined city centre, alongside tens of thousands of others." Well,
I wasn't too excited with it in the beginning, but I must tell you
guys...it's awsome. And the fact that you need no specific software
(aside from a web-browser) or hardware to play it makes it even better
(especially for me, I'm using a five year old Mac). You'll probably
think it sucks when you first play it, but when you get to know the
mechanics better you'll see how good it is.

Try it. You can have more than one character (although it's considering
cheating to have two or more of your characters together) so it'll be
easy for you to try different things to see what you like more...you
don't even have to register! Just click 'create a character', input a
name and password and you're rollin'! Seriously, try it. And if you
like it tell me, because I'm needing allies.

And if lots of you like I believe we can find a way of making some sort
of 'PJ Alliance', there are several simmilar ones already!

	I posted this link awhile back as well. Played the game for a wee bit too but it got supremely boring and monotonous after a bit.

	*Originally posted by Skull* What can I hit you up as Filax? Hmmm...and that means? Where can you find me? Well, I'm currently a zombie (did the mistake of locking myself up in a museum with a level 40 zombie ) and I'm waiting to be revived in a cemetery ( I'm like, second in the list, but have been waiting for like 38 hours). So, it's quite useless for you to come to me, since I won't move until I'm revived (or killed).

	NO! We should team up and KILL zombies! Meet me in the Fackerell Auto Repair, Spracklingbank (look at the map in wiki.urbandead.com). It's a safe place (most zombies can't open doors) and, when I level up, I'll be able to revive you if you get killed, so it's good for you too. I'd tell you to go to my other character (the dead one) but he's currently surrounded by 28 zombies and several corpses that can wake up at any moment If you're too faraway, just tell me, and I'll find a way to meet you.

	I signed up but damn AOL has drained my energieses. Your IP address has accessed this server too many times today. In order to keep the server running smoothly and to prevent multi-character abuse, players are only allowed to hit the Urban Dead site 160 times from a single machine (or IP address), per day. Either:- you've used your limit up yourself, you're sharing a computer with someone who's used up the machine's limit, or you're using an ISP (such as AOL) that reuses a very small range of IP addresses. See the FAQ for a fuller explanation of this, and some workarounds if it's your ISP's problem. I'll check out the faq in a bit. //EDIT: I did and it would seem i'm stuffed. Owels. And welcome back to the forums Filax, good to have you with us =D Edited by Larwick - 15 August 2006 at 7:11am

	So, I'll be out for eleven days...camping. If you meet BobTheBuilderRulez, please don't kill him. And don't go to the cemetery in Scarletwood, it's full of zombies. And I'm waiting for revival there. We'll have to find a meeting place, ya know? Think about it while I'm out. C ya!

	*Originally posted by Monkey 'o Doom* Don't worry. You can be revived eventually. Funny that, of my two main characters, the which I wanted to live is waiting to be revived for several days and the one I wanted to live has died and been revived for like...five times. In two days Yeah, the AP thing kinda sucks, but it has to be like that, otherwise, a guy that found you sleeping would be have as many chances as he wanted to kill you (I just don't know why the chances of hitting a sleeping character aren't 100%)

	I played it once, was too lazy to play it twice. Usually I find those text-based games boring, but maybe one day I give this one another shot, who knows.

Yeah, same here. I tried it out before, and as much as I love zombies (in a non-necrophilic way, that is) I couldn't really get into it. Text/browser-based games never hold my attention for long.

	if you love this game and use Firefox, there's an extension for which I pixeled the locations. check it out here UD Toolbar then use the installation link to see how it's installed. I had nothing to do with the extension/toolbar itself, so I can't help there. All I did was make the locationsquares to make the game more appealing. Edited by Equinoxx - 19 August 2006 at 6:58am

	Yey it worked! I had a go today, i'm a medic called Larwick btw. I found a safe place but i decided to go exploring and couldn't find it again, so i believe i'm stuck exhausted in some place with about 50 dead bodies around, i dont think there's any zombies about though. I swear it's physically impossible to hit a zombie, and i used one of my bullets... :( I'm in North Blythville aparently.
