Those are survivors or locusts? DAMN.
I vote for the nearby house.
If we fail to find food in here, breach the second house nearby.
The shop is too distant and near the 'siren' point.

NOBODY EVER LISTENS TO THE WISDOM OF THE ANCIENTS!

So, counting that there will be around 500 zombies or so in town, and ALL of them will be swarming towards the shop, we'll find ourselves cutely closed in a corner by a horde, in a undefended shop. We should pray that the escape route towards the south houses is clear. If we didn't became Plague Walkers food while the chopper passed over our heads.:(

It is usual that the game tries actively to fuck you when you're near completion? Or all teams start to get serious shit independently of the results around this point? What there is left? A special encounter with Zombie Elephants?

As Azira suggested, I breach the store to feed his whining gut.

The librarian is injured yet again. I'm not sure how much longer he can hold out. At this point, I take a look at the map...

See... those little bright red crosses? Every cross... represents a zombie. Yes. Those are the zombies that the Piper summoned. I warned you. I said that the zombies would be swarming in that direction. But does anybody listen?

Our team fights bravely on...

... and on...

...but even the most courageous of men must eventually succumb.

The rescue chopper will be here in two hours. We have two hours to massacre the horde of zombies and get back to our rescue point. In our current condition, it'll take two hours just to walk back to the warehouse. Ha... haha... AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Only one thing to do BEZERKER CHARGE!!!

We as Codex BROthers still won, no matter the outcome we choose our humanity over our base survival instinct.

Any last words, comrades? Any last futile actions that you wish to perform?

We CAN'T berserker charge. The closest thing we can do is snipe. And let me check... yup, we have like 20 rifle rounds irght now, but I didn't bring any rifle because I didn't have the ammo for it.

Besides, you typically kill only one or two zombies per hour with sniping... and that's not nearly fast enough for us to kill all of them.

EDIT: WAIT A MINUTE!

WE CAN BERSERKER CHARGE! We can just patrol outside and I'll set them to KILL ALL ZOMBIES instead of report back. How does that sound, folks?

Brothers.....We got fucked by zombie mentality.

'Uhnnn.... WE NEED FOOD... LET'S GO TO THE SHOP FULL OF FOOD....UHNNN...'

We thought like them, we'll die like them.

Well, best horror movies always end in a sad way. We did well, but we failed.
Charge and maul them. We'll die howling our pointless rage while the choppa fly over us.
Ana, there is a way, ANY WAY, to salvage at least a survivor? I don't know, sending Artabanes with a stereo running away while Azira charges to redeem himself and Lindblum tries to hit the rescue point...
Anything!

We cannot exit, we cannot run, we cannot fight....

Is that... a proposal to save Lindblum's life? My god, Dayyalu... look at what this game has done to your humanity. As for your question, no, we can't do anything like that until the location isn't surrounded by zombies, which it still is.

If we send three people out to patrol and attack zombies, you can still hope that at least one of them will make it back. Otherwise, you could send just Azira and Artabanes out, hope they kill enough zombies in an hour to get rid of the "SURROUNDED!" status, and then send Lindblum straight to the rescue point and hope he doesn't die in the process. Of course, if you leave him in the shop alone, he might just get killed by the zombies invading the place.

So what will it be? Berserker charge with all three people, or with just Azira and Artabanes?

For the record, I thought the best option was to breach the house next to the warehouse, but since these are your choices, not mine... :bravo:

'BROTHERS! WE ARE ROYALLY FUCKED!
BUT WE WILL REEDEEM OURSELVES NOW!
LET THE HOLY WORDS OF THE PROPHET WARM YOUR HEART WHILE WE FIGHT THE SOULLESS!
Azira, I hope your last supper was delicious. WE'LL PAY DEARLY FOR THAT!
Linblum, you are a useless piece of crap. But A RESILIENT ONE, and I'll value that.
Tndrli, you're dead. CORPSE! What I was saying? Yes!You were a valiant even if unstable Brother.
Tentacle, we'll son get reunited.I cannot say I'm happy with that, but shit happens.
OPEN.....THE....DOORS!....'

I suggested breaching the houses, without even ever playing the game, applying mere logic- was that so difficult? Whining is pointless, however.
Let's try to save the Pigeon. If we succeed, I call it a moral victory.

:bro:

A rousing speech indeed, my friend.
Unfortunately, Lindblum and Artabanes are currently passed out on the floor (oops, did I forget to mention that little detail? :troll:) . And we don't have time to wait for them to wake. Oh, but you know who's awake right now?

Azira.

Yes.

Let's open the doors.

Oh wait Azira didn't go outside after all. Stupid developers they should've just greyed out the patrol outside option if they won't let people go out at all when surrounded! Seems like his cowardly instincts has prevented him from going on a suicide charge.

Blasted videogame! Will you deny us even this last honor of dying on our own terms?!

Brothers, we have one hour left! That's when our only hope will be gone! And we. Are. Still. Surrounded! We can't even BERSERKER CHARGE! What would you like to do in your final hour!?

EDIT: Oh, and Lindblum and Artabanes are still out cold. So I guess that just leaves Azira :troll:

The "patrol outside and attack zombies" option is still available, if you're still interested in that. :)

....Why the game keeps saying that 'We're all at the rescue point.'?

EDIT: If it is a Bug. it will be the best one in my gaming carreer.

Do you know something that we don't knowo_O?


Keep Charging. On a unrelated note, how do you embed a Tube video?

Well, we're at the shop, not the rescue point, so I don't know why it's doing that. You can see that in the diary headers. Our rescue point is the warehouse on Sims Street.

There's an icon of a film reel right above the reply box. Click on it and then paste in the url of your youtube video.

Nah, it's just that the frequency of the "dilemmas", as the devs like to call the special events, increase towards the end. If you deal with them intelligently, like for example not pissing off a certain person whom a certain person has told you it's a bad idea to piss off, it won't necessarily become a big problem. On one of my successful runs where everybody survived, the endgame was actually quite uneventful.

Also:

"Least useful survivor: Lindblum":troll:

Nah, it always says that when the chopper comes, even if you're not at the rescue point. I should probably report it to the devs, but (1) I can't be arsed and (2) other players have probably already reported it anyway.

:greatjob:

How does it feel to be the most useful survivor?

-Annnnd it's gone. Gone.
-They left us here?
- It seems so. Bunch of pricks.
(increase in the nearby moaning- sounds of damaged barricades)
-And now?
- What about a drink?
-Your call.
(sounds of traps activating-more moaning)
-Ya know? It wasn't so bad, after all.
-(drink) Damn. Never had the chance to discover what was that strange laughter in the school....
(Moanings-Moanings- footsteps on the stairs-)
-One thing. I'd always loved you, Lindblum.
-Awww.
(Door breached)


It was fun. And we almost did it.:) 353 kills is not that bad. That's all folks!

Trust me, you don't want to know. Seriously.

Though, I suppose if you're really curious... we could give this whole thing another go? :troll:

(If people are interested, I'd be up for running another game with new and/or old players. :))
