h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Wee! I found another way to waste my free time! http://urbandead.com/ Its a kind of low budget (but FREE) zombie plague multiplayer RPG. I figure if we get enough people together we can claim a suburb of the city for hootoo!

Best part is that if you die you just become a zombie, and can be revived back into a human if you want (and if you find someone who can revive you).

There are several classes you can start with, and the various ones offer various benefits so theres something for everyone.

There is a limited number of things you can do each day. You only get fifty "action points" and once you use these up you can't act anymore, but these points regenerate one per half hour.

Because of this, Urban Dead doesn't actually take up that much time because theres a limited number of things you can do in a day.

So give it a try and if you do head south to the suburb of Dartside. We will take a chunk of the city for hootoo!

(& teach wikipedia a thing-or-two, in the process, hopefully).

Yes, yes. How dare they allow themselves to be edited by anyone rather than have the careful editing process of the Guide?

, well... that's one way of putting it.

I just think that Hootoo,_ is plenty friendlier than those people, was what I'd meant.

For this is the, "for why" EC gets to be the 5- general.
It sounds better when he say. Thorn, just an advisor/helper, ?

That, & it's a really good strategy too because both me & EC put it together.

Don't fill the thread up with too many posts or people won't read it

((Oh yeah, huh... good point. WhOops(ys) )).

I play it! I live in kempsterbank! I also have a zombie character who roams the mean streets of Malton! Tis fun!

Hmmm... I'll think about it.

I'm coming on down to you EC! Let's take Malton!

Which class would you say is best?

I joined as a soldier. I can't do anything yet though, the things says I can go no further.... and I just started!!!

It depends. Guns are stronger than melee weapons but you have to look for ammo. So a firefighter is probably best in that you have a melee weapon and you don't have to look for ammunition for your chief weapon.

On the other hand, if you figure you're going to die eventually, you can start as a zombie and you'll be stronger than level one zombies that started off human.

I am a zombie...I'll post my id when i get closer...Whats our aim? Do we kill everyone in sight?

As a zombie you should avoid hootoo people, and join a large horde of them for safety.

And sure kill everyone except zombies, that's why you should stay away from hootoo, but do as you will.

Well...why don't we set up a h2g2 member thing on the UD wikipedia, then sign up. All of us would have everyone else's id's so we'd be able to recognise them regardless of zombie status. Our goal could be to take a region for ourselves...

Why do we need wikipedia for that?

I'm starting a group callled The Evil Army of H2G2. I figure, why not establish a branch of hootoo in Urban Dead and since the evil army is all I know... anyway!

The plan, is to create a multi-vital organization. Zombies and humans. Basically attack anyone not in our group. But people get steamed if you kill humans while humans or zombies while zombie. Its not against the rules but people act like it is and might kill you as a PKer.
