Previous employment

| Type: New zombie skill |
| Scope: Zombies |
| Description: Allows zombies to be able to reconize NT buildings from the street without having to become a human to do so. |

Not a dupe. Just something you should look at. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 20:33, 13 December 2010 (UTC)
I toyed with a similar idea once, under the Scent tree, that would provide the ability only flavoured as the zombie recognising a chemical smell from the building. I think a version that doesn't rely on the idea that one company has employed the entire city at some point or another would be a little better.

- NecroTech Employment requries that. Just an observation.---Scout talk!!!! 19:34, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, so doubling that perception instead of opening a new avenue of thought is a bad idea. 00:23, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
World's largest dupe. See: Swiers, Iscariot.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 20:09, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
That would be nice but it should not be a new skill but a benifit from memories of life skill--User:Zombeman 11/Sig 16:38 18 of December 2010 [UTC]
Remove skill
| Timestamp: -Scout talk!!!! 22:10, 11 December 2010 (UTC) |
| Type: Mechanics change |
| Scope: Everyone |
| Description: You would be able to forget a skill for the exact same XP as it would cost to buy it. If you mastered the game, you might want to start over, on another note, zombies with brain rot would be able to forget it. |
Discussion (Remove skill)
You need to regain less XP than it cost to buy it. Otherwise, you could get a few hundred XP and just switch it between whatever skills you need at the time. --VVV RPMBG 22:13, 11 December 2010 (UTC)
Too easily exploitable. Imagine Death Cultists folks with a ton of excess XP who would learn and forget Brain Rot at will when it suits them. Or being able to forget Bodybuilding temporarily to make your HP appear to be maxed. How would this affect skill tree skills? If I forget NecroTech Employment, do I also forget Lab Experience and NecroNet Access since the former is a prerequisite for the later two? ~
00:14, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
Maybe there would be a limit to how many times you can forget somthing, like you can only forget three times per skill or somthing like that, and/or limit which skills it can be used on.---Scout talk!!!! 20:11, 13 December 2010 (UTC)
This would ruin the entire game.if i want to start over ill creat another character.--User:Zombeman 11/Sig 16:38 18 of December 2010 [UTC]
Food

| Type: New item |
| Scope: Survivors |
| Description: ok i know its hard not to get a med pack but a new source of survivor healing is neccisary for newbs
ok so there will be 4 food catagories frozen canned fresh and rotten frozen food will be raw and used to heal 2 hp canned will be used to heal 6 hp fresh will be used to heal 10 hp and last and certainly the least rotten will heal 1 hp and doubles the amount of ap to move for the next 15 actions. |
Discussion (Food)
I like the idea of a uncertain item. Perhaps it could be just one item called 'food', which will usually heal 5HP, but will sometimes be all rotten and moldy, causing 5 damage/infection/lethargy(next five actions cost an extra AP). Maybe 90% likelihood of being 'fresh' and 10% chance of some sort of food poisoning. --VVV RPMBG 03:16, 8 December 2010 (UTC)
Food has been shoot down in the past. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 03:18, 8 December 2010 (UTC)
- Twice. Maybe three times, but these two are the ones I know of. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 03:22, 8 December 2010 (UTC)
Food shouldn't heal as much as an FAK. I'd support a few differently-named but otherwise identical food items being added as beer clones, but that's about it. Should all be tinned or jarred, to work as an improv weapon like bottles do, and to explain away its continued viability after half a decade of storage. 03:23, 8 December 2010 (UTC)
- Baguette. If you leave them be for a few days, the get hard. If you leave them for a few years, they get weaponizable. --VVV RPMBG 03:31, 8 December 2010 (UTC)
I'm not usually a grammar Nazi but please use some capitalization and punctuation if/when you take this to Suggestions. Otherwise, I like the idea of adding a food item or two. We have vending machines. We have stale candy. Why not food items. ~ 04:47, 8 December 2010 (UTC)
Like Mis, I think these should just be canned/jarred goods that could also be used as weapons (I love novelty weapons, me). Given the lack of a decent power supply in the city, frozen goods wouldn't last long. Question: where would these new food items be found? The most obvious place would be malls, but at the moment there isn't a "Search Grocery" button so this would have to be added (although, as Axe has pointed out, this has been rejected in the past). Hotels and mansions may have some canned goods stashed in their kitchens. Pubs probably wouldn't though - they'd just have a few packets of crisps, nuts and hog lumps laying about the place. Apartment towers would probably have some cans, hidden away in kitchen cupboards. Apart from doughnuts in police stations (stereotype alert!), I can't think of anywhere else. ~~ Chief Seagull ~~ talk 10:22, 8 December 2010 (UTC) If you could share it.... That would be awesome! Also, maybe it would take two bites to eat fully, each bite would be the same. So if you take one bite, and it hurts you, you could do a subtle form of PKing and share it with someone else. ---Scout talk!!!! 03:16, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
