As I said, this isn't game changing. There are only 4 stadiums and giving them a modest FAK search rate won't turn any tide. This isn't to change how survivors get FAKs, it's just to cause some action around the stadiums. | As I said, this isn't game changing.

#'''Kill''' - Hurricane, yes, but I'm not so sure you'd be packing people into a stadium during an apparent pandemic. Interesting line of thought, though.--[[User:Jiangyingzi|Jiangyingzi]] 03:39, 18 December 2008 (UTC) | #'''Kill''' - Hurricane, yes, but I'm not so sure you'd be packing people into a stadium during an apparent pandemic.

Suggestion description
After disasters, such as New Orleans' hurricane Katrina, stadiums are often used to house refugees displaced from their homes. Medical supplies are flown in to take care of the larger number of victims.
I propose that at the beginning of the outbreak the stadiums were briefly used for this purpose, and a large number of first-aid kits flown in. Leftover FAKs are still there.
I suggest that FAKs be found in stadiums at a rate 2/3rds that of hospitals. This isn't really designed to be a survivor buff since stadiums are few and far between, rather it's meant to make stadiums themselves a little more interesting. Here's my logic:
- 1. Being another large building with useful resources kind of makes stadiums malls on hard mode. There would finally be an incentive to defend them, but surviving a siege would be more of a challenge without ammunition or high search rates.
- 2. Malls have had their FAK search rates lowered. Perhaps 2/3rd of a hospital is now equivalent or higher than searching a mall drug store without Bargain Hunting. This might make stadiums the newbie mall, ideal for those without search or firearms skills.
- 3. Stadiums would be a great place to find FAKs in an zombie controlled suburb. One zombie can stop a hospital from being fixed. It would take at least one in each corner to guard a stadium, making it an easier place to raid by popping in, quickly repairing and searching one corner, then withdrawing.
As I said, this isn't game changing. There are only 4 stadiums and giving them a modest FAK search rate won't turn any tide. This isn't to change how survivors get FAKs, it's just to cause some action around the stadiums.
