ah.....are we all playing Zombooka???

So had no one else tried Dead Frontiers yet? I have to admit, there are times when it actually gets my pulse racing. Dodging a slow zombie is one thing, dodging a pack of green and red ones with longer arms and legs than you... gets the adrenaline going! Oh, and I'm still just playing the 2D overhead version instead of the 3D one which is supposed to be even more intense. Either one is still free or you can buy a Gold Membership and get extra perks like exp % bonuses, more/better loot, etc. for giving the creator beer money I'm not sure if I'll end up buying a membership yet but it sure is a fun/frustrating game. If anyone does try it out, send me a message in game and I'll do my best to hook you up with some decent equipment to get you started. My do suggest going with an Athlete for your first attempt, they get a serious agility bonus which helps you move quicker in game and obviously, avoid zombies.

ya know....it sounds like alot of fun.....if I werent too old and too slow......I was hanging out in pinball parlors when PacMan was first released.....that should tell you how UNable I am!

Bah! There are 8 year old kids that are better than me at just about any video game but it doesn't mean I can't enjoy them. It's a free game, it's zombie related, and can actually get you involved enough to get your heart racing... and that's just trying to dodge them, much less fight them. I like the 2D version a lot better than the 3D one even if there are more zombies to shoot in 3D. It's even possible to play the game without going out and killing everything you see. You can try a 'support' character that either grows or cooks food, makes or administers medicines, or just repairs armor. You can run courier missions to gain experience points to level up or search/recover lost items or people as well. Just make sure you can dodge the zombies and you can easily outrun them at a steady walk although sprinting for short distances is possible and even advised at times!

okay you talked me into it....it's been a long time since anyone made my heart race....dead, alive, or undead.......

just follow this link, reach level 10. I get 5k and since I'm doing pretty good cash-wise, you get 5k. To find me in game, send a message to: whynotvape
Should come up with a picture of a guy wearing a beret, eyepatch, and usually armor, packing a couple pistols and a chainsaw

Guess I should put the link in here too

Alternatively, find me in game with a message, let me know who you are on here and I can outfit you with 5k worth of gear to get you started. All I ask is that if you decide you don't like the game before you hit level 10 to sell it back to me for the same price ($1 a piece of equipment). If you make it to level 10, I get the 5k and we call it all good! Just let me know what type of weapons you want to end up with and I can give a sort of guide as to where to put your stats and how long (level wise) it'll take to get there. I didn't do such a great job and my stats are kind of off compared to what would be 'optimal' for where I want to end up.

right...so, ah.....we are talking like play money here right?

So I was thinking of cheating right off the bat and just joining for $8 to get all the extra stuff.....I mean if I havnt figured it out in a month then I probably never will.....and if I do figure it out....I think it was $70 for the whole year....that's pretty cheap thrills compared to vaping!

 

[whynotvap]

Yeah it's fake money (game money that is). The credits are nice since you can save them up and use them to 'godcraft' items into perfect stat boosters. I just wouldn't waste it on beginning equipment though! I'm right at the edge of joining myself just for the experience and loot bonuses. Worst case, sell the credits for in game cash.
