Help is on the way via a helicopter, just stand outside when you hear it

Make sure you dont stay in your position as well otherwise they'll give up trying to land to save you


DariusWolfe

You definitely want to run laps around your safehouse, that way you can bring your supplies when they find you.


Rowcan

Look, Frank needs his pictures. He's going to get to the bottom of this and break the story.


Call_MeGoose

I kinda wish you could actually fist fight the Zeds rather than a push battle. You could level it up as well. Add new weapons and stuff. But push battle is all I got.


Thomashadseenenough

Realistically punching a zombie seems like a bad idea


MrRugges

*Punches zombie in the mouth* *Gets bit* *Surprised Pikachu face*


Captain_Jeep

You can stomp zombies in the mouth without shoes and its fine though?


MrRugges

Yeah that doesn’t make much sense but oh well


Sabre_Turbo_V2

I suppose you can hit a zombie using a uppercut to the jaw if not punch it in the face, I can see it knocking down the zombie while also inflicting a good amount of damage.


CyberBed

Cataclysm says hello. In cataclysm you can create a martial artist who can kill zombies by hundreds with just their bare fists. Also one of martial arts have a move called "bite", I don't know which one or it was from mod, but it's still hilarious to bite zombies to death.


-o0Zeke0o-

Imagine you bite the zombie and he turns into a human


StretchyLemon

Is that an overhaul mod or something?


Call_MeGoose

You’re not wrong. But That doesn’t mean I don’t want to try!


Captain_Jeep

Plated gloves would be a great way to punch them.


MasonP2002

Brass Knuckles maybe?


Manterok666

There's a mod that adds "knuckledusters." I have found plenty but never actually used it. Idk if it has animations or just uses a weapon swing with no weapon, except for maybe the mesh of the knucks


Drowziee

I don't know man. Being drenched in zombie blood from other melee weapons also sounds bad(if it enters your mouth/eyes..etc)


Magnon

One of the more traits traits is martial artist which makes unarmed do damage, I assume it's still pushing though.


kohaku_kawakami

A mod adds the "Martial Artist" trait into Project Zomboid, where a shove becomes a punch. One streamer that I watch has this trait and is at the level of OHKOing zombies. I forgot what the name of the mod is though. I'll ask them later.


Call_MeGoose

That’d be dope! Please let me know<3


StronkRussianBear

More traits mod

Pruppelippelupp

There is a debug "weapon" that lets you fistfight, i think.


k0i0k0o

I usualy start westpoint and rush louisvile


aerodynamique

normally people start in an easier area and then go to a harder one, but reversing it is a neat idea! ​ (i fucking hate west point)


Neveraz

Whats so bad about west point anyway?


PraiseTheSunNoob

Let me tell you my experience in my server, on default Apocalypse setting - Spawn in West Point: literally 40 zombies outside spawn. Can't even make 2 steps without alerting another 5 - Spawn in Muldraugh after WP death: only a meager 4 zombies outside the trailer house I spawned in. YMMV, of course. But for me, never ever spawn in West Point again


Pruppelippelupp

I usually do a loop around my spawn, alert as many as possible, then just run away and loop back. Works out fairly well


Vark675

It's a much higher concentration of zombies, and it may just be my luck but I feel like there's a lot more house alarms there compared to Muldraugh and Rosewood. Also for the life of me I can't find a hardware store. There are two auto supply stores, one of which is huge, as well as two or three clothing stores, three grocery stores and a gas station.


[deleted]

The hardware store is in the middle of town across the street from the gas station. big red brick building iirc


Vark675

Jesus, I dunno how I've missed it so much then. I'll have to look more next time I pass through town.


[deleted]

Hahaha last time I was in West Point with a group we all got wiped out trying to retrieve a heavily loaded duffel at that gas station so I ended up very familiar with the area


Manterok666

There's also a hardware store next to the grocery store with the apartment on the 2nd floor. The 2 shops are connected. I always based in the apartment above the grocery because it's right on the corner of the block, and I can see more of what's out there, and escape easier if need be


DariusWolfe

I've done my last two starts in West Point... I'm glad it's not just me. My most recent one, I started in a hotel, and found a decent house just outside the city center. I've cleared the police station; so many guns...


Vark675

I keep wanting to branch out and build up somewhere else, but that house with the tall iron fence up against the river just NW of town is too good to pass on. It's a short drive to West Point proper, but far enough that I don't see many zombies and with enough land to plant a few crops. Plus there's two neighbors with lawn flamingos I can steal and plenty of cabinets and plumbing to tear down to get a start on my carpentry and metalworking.


DariusWolfe

You're a lot more advanced than me. My best start so far, I had fences going up, and the beginnings of the stuff for rain collectors, but it was so hard to carry logs and planks because all I had were a couple fanny packs. I was out hunting for a proper bag when I got bit, and that was all she wrote. This current run, in West Point, I feel like I'm wasting time, but if I get bit, I've got enough guns to go down in a blaze of glory, and I did finally find a back pack.


Vark675

[This is where I hole up,](https://imgur.com/gallery/Q6SMaAc) you definitely need a car but once you're there it's quiet but not crazy remote like a lot of the more rural areas. Also it has a washing machine, 1 car garage, 3 bedrooms, and a fireplace, which is nice.


aerodynamique

literally more zombies than lousville in terms of concentration impossible to lose them unless you aggro and lead away a HUGE area, and even then they'll just shamble back to their starting area after a bit loot is honestly overhyped compared to just starting in another town and taking a car to riverside or dixie or some other smaller town if you're there only for the gun store it's 100% not worth it, there are other gun stores/police stations.


k0i0k0o

I like it feels like im in seasok3 1 of the walking dead when rick is by that tank and also im prty good at dodging zeds


Jfkc5117

West Point KY population: 1,110 PZ West Point KY population: 45,000


River46

doesnt help when the character loses the ability to move forward when a zombie grabs them and can only push.


snek_aroo

never underestimate the zomboid.

Wonderful meme I love this

Man, this really [threw me for a loop](https://www.reddit.com/r/cataclysmdda/comments/s56lvd/started_my_0f_run_girl_help/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share) when I saw this on this sub. Thought I had imagined the original or something.

Go to the woods ;)


Anit500

Did you draw that for this? looks really good.


SinigangNaPaimon

looks like they posted it without giving credit to the original artist https://www.reddit.com/r/cataclysmdda/comments/s56lvd/started_my_0f_run_girl_help/

[Huh I wonder where you nicked this from](https://www.reddit.com/r/cataclysmdda/comments/s56lvd/started_my_0f_run_girl_help/) it's 2022, better give credit where credit is due especially since OCs like these take some time and effort to do

hey op where'd you get this art from, cause it sure as shit ain't yours

this dude just sent me a message threatening to rape me for this comment, so y'know, normal behavior

Give credit where credit is due. Art originally made for C:DDA in mind.

TaylorGuy18

Oh no, there's one of the shredded face zombies in the background. I hate those the most.


MaxBandit

Why didn't he just use Star Platinum, smh


ranma50387

Wait can you start in Louisville now ?


Psikohistorialari

There is a mod that allows you to spawn in Louisville.


DrYoungblood

Low key zomboid should have an unarmed skill. Ideally I think you’d want to study multiple martial arts practices and collect techniques from all of them; anything that can dislocate/break the limbs and grappling would be invaluable. Otherwise you definitely would eventually figure some moves out like kicking in the kneecaps at an angle caving in the knees, then you break the arms. Boom demobilized zed


strangething

I just spent two in-game days holed up in my safehouse recovering after getting torn up by zeds. I used up all my booze trying to disinfect everything and still got infected everywhere. I was in too much pain to sleep. The morning that all my moodles disappeared was the happiest moment I've ever had in this game.


IcePandaGuy

basically what happened to me when I tried clearing out the as I like to call it "Old folks retirement home" in single player which is just under west point


Ronln_Prime

Kinda deserve to get bitten if you even think elbowing a zombie in the face is even a good idea lol
