Movement

There has got to be a better place for this. Anywhere really, ideas for the most suitable home until this can be expanded as an actual existing event and not a building timeline with one point? --Karek^maps?! 11:26, 3 April 2011 (BST)

Throw it into my namespace if its otherwise wasted.--Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 12:07, 3 April 2011 (BST)

I don't know if it is to be honest, haven't been on the game in a while but, there has got to be either more or a more relevant place where they are actually, say, active? --Karek^maps?! 12:30, 3 April 2011 (BST)

Perhaps we should leave it be until some more information is acquired... It's only been two days and it isn't hurting anyone. Although from what Nubis/DCC used to say, The Dead are notoriously anti-wiki so we may see ourselves through this whole dead resurgence thing without any 'official' news from the leaders/members. Surely there isn't any harm in waiting though. -- ϑ^anceϑ^anceℜ^evolution 14:16, 3 April 2011 (BST)

I agree with Karek. I've stumbled over this page twice now walking back to the map room. What does Krazymouse think this is? Some sort of wiki where users are allowed to make pages? --Kirsty cotton 15:02, 3 April 2011 (BST)

Not this shit again. Maybe there's already a comprehensive page for the Dead. Something like this perhaps? We'll decide on our own whether or not we want anything more than that and we don't need you fucking retards deciding for us. That's what brought us here last time and I'm sure a few people remember just how well that went for everyone involved. Do you want that again? --Laughing Man 15:06, 3 April 2011 (BST)

Your pictures were always excellent. --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 19:58, 3 April 2011 (BST)

Why wouldn't we? -- ϑ^anceϑ^anceℜ^evolution 01:21, 4 April 2011 (BST)

Soooo...any suggestions where to move it? It appears that User:Anothergenericzombiee views this as a group page. Surely it is not. He reverted some edits as if the group had ownership, though. Maybe it's better suited on a subpage of The Dead 2.0 or even The Dead. If we keep it here, it is surely to be continuously "vandalised". ~ _{20:27, 4 April 2011}

Move it to Krazymouse's userspace. He has claimed ownership of it by creating it, and as a userspace page, any vandalism can be easily verdicted if necessary. -- Spiderzed▋ 20:34, 4 April 2011 (BST)

If it's not a user group page, then what is it? Something chronicling current events? Surely that should have an NPOV and not some wacky DHPD propaganda and speculation. If it's Krazymouse's then he can do whatever. --Anothergenericzombie 23:46, 4 April 2011 (BST)

It appears to be neither of those things at this moment. I agree with Spider, this should be moved to userspace until it can be worked out what the article really is about. Krazymouses' userspace makes most sense. ~ _{23:59, 4 April 2011}

It should be a neutral page chronicling current events, as genericzombie is saying. If it goes another day or so without any useful updates or input from any user, then put it in mouse's userspace, or better yet, just delete it. -- ϑ^anceϑ^anceℜ^evolution 01:46, 5 April 2011 (BST)

I meant more along the lines of: Can we develop a developing article space for things like this or at least add some content to it? Probably should have been clearer on that, no real reason to move it to his namespace just needs to be made clear that this is a possible future article and wasn't sure if we'd made a new space for developing those. --Karek^maps?! 09:02, 5 April 2011 (BST)

Yeah. I slapped on a "construction" template for now, should at least let people know of its... 'unofficial' nature? -- ϑ^anceϑ^anceℜ^evolution 10:17, 5 April 2011 (BST)

@Karek, I kind of like the idea of a developing articles page or even a developing events page. Can you expand on that idea bit more? Would it tie in with UDWiki:Featured Articles/Good Articles? This may not be the place to discuss it but I'd be interested to see if we could take your idea somewhere. ~ _{14:57, 5 April 2011}

Are you serious? Can an article not last a week in construction in a mainspace anymore? Sigh -- ϑ^anceϑ^anceℜ^evolution 15:11, 5 April 2011 (BST)

@DanceDanceRevolution, my comment wasn't specifically aimed at this article or your use of the construction template. I just think a developing article or developing event page would help in situations where an author may not know how to expand their article or would like some tips on how to make it more awesome. If you want to use this article for an example, though, I see that most of the people commenting here are asking for the expansion of the article but nowhere do I see any good suggestions on how to do so. Karek's idea has some merit IMHO and I would like to see if it can be expanded upon. At the very least I'd like to see some suggestion on how the article can be expanded instead of focusing so much on why it should be expanded. ~ _{15:29, 5 April 2011}

Just add stuff, not rocket science. We can start off by adding what's been happening, which I've been doing my best to considering I've not come across them in game (nor care) yet. -- ϑ^anceϑ^anceℜ^evolution 04:35, 6 April 2011 (BST)

It's apparently harder than one might think. How many sad and lonely C1 articles do we find on A/D that could have been expanded at some point with some guidance?

Again, this particular article may not need guidance to get going. Adding updates about what's been happening while keeping it NPOV is fine. At some point, some history can be added. I'll probably run into The Dead here in a day or so as they're moving into the Lukinswood area it seems. I'll put in some updates. ~ _{15:01, 6 April 2011}

The DHPD should not be editing this page, and certainly shouldn't be making edits which aren't NPOV. As far as we are aware DHPD Officer 666 is nothing to do with us (in all fairness The Dead say he's nothing to do with them either). If there is any funny business from DHPD members on this page (or others) report to me and we'll deal with it. Purple Cat ~ DHPD 09:41, 5 April 2011 (BST)

You'll deal with it? Just like how you dealt with The Dead last week? RustyKuntz

they have 1337 members now. hope to god that's deliberate-- ϑ^anceϑ^anceℜ^evolution 07:25, 5 April 2011 (BST)

Nope. Up to 1343 now. ~ _{08:02, 5 April 2011}

;_; -- ϑ^anceϑ^anceℜ^evolution 08:38, 5 April 2011 (BST)

It's weird they didn't. Using leetspeak in 2011 would have been a totally bleeding edge form of trolling. --Deadone 17:19, 5 April 2011 (BST)

-Notices that the Deas has by far the lowest average level of all group- Smyg 17:31, 5 April 2011 (BST)

It's extra insulting when your high level, fully fleshed out RP toon gets eaten by 30 level 1's. I'd suggest you try it sometime, but you're not really gonna have a choice. --Deadone 17:44, 5 April 2011 (BST)

Useless info, nothing new. -- ϑ^anceϑ^anceℜ^evolution 04:33, 6 April 2011 (BST)

Thanks for your amazing insight. Phuzzy 04:35, 6 April 2011 (BST)

Of course it's nothing new, just interesting. :3 Smyg 07:21, 6 April 2011 (BST)

Oh for fuck's sake

Is there going to be a wiki page for every time the Dead shit again? One that chronicles the color and shape? When they start trashing the town then maybe a page should go up, but until then what the fuck are you going to put on it? Stop wasting your time here. And yes, the Dead 3.0 is just as anti-wiki as before and I certainly as fuck don't want to come back here as me or as Nubis. I'm only here to confirm DDR's comment about us. -- #99 ^DCC 18:04, 5 April 2011 (BST)

welcome back, and yes udwiki is a source for all game info.. so what ever the dead shits up is a concern to us here. xoxox -- The preceding signed comment was added by these amazing looking

bitch 18:28 5 April 2011 (UTC)

There's a stats page, it shows stuff. You know where we start from. Go look at the wiki stuff for there....already updated! So this article isn't really needed because most people already knew what was going on if it concerned them. Another reason is the Dead 2.0 (or whatever the fuck) never left in the first place, so you do the math.--Deadone 18:43, 5 April 2011 (BST)

Aaaaaand there's the other reason I wanted this shunted somewhere until it was possibly relevant. --Karek^maps?! 08:38, 7 April 2011 (BST)

I love you,Karek. <3-- #99 ^DCC 19:43, 17 April 2011 (BST)

Hey since this page is all about us can we edit it however we want? --カシュー, ザ ゾンビ クィーン (ビープ ビープ) @ 21:14, 17 April 2011 (BST)

I sure hope so! – Nubis ^NWO 21:19, 17 April 2011 (BST)

Well, no one else is. This pile can only get better. --Karek^{maps 2.0?!} 22:50, 17 April 2011 (BST)

Needs more cocks. --Deadone 23:05, 20 April 2011 (BST)

Needs more Hagar. - Rotting TRex

Needs more Agar. --Lex Lotor 15:16, 21 April 2011 (BST)

You can edit it, just not "however you want". This is in the main namespace so all edits need to be constructive, replacing valid information with unrelated gifs is not constructive. - Vantar 02:01, 22 April 2011 (BST)

Suggesting you DEAL WITH HIT heh Phuzzy 02:20, 22 April 2011 (BST)

If you're serious about claiming this page as your own then have it moved to a sub page of your group or we can head down to Arby's and sort out the validity of your claim - Vantar 03:00, 22 April 2011 (BST)

Oh, man, can we dad? I love Arbys, I wanna get a big old roast beef sandwich and a giant sized chocolate shake and a big old pile of curly fries and then go into a diabetic coma! Can we dad? Can we? Phuzzy 19:09, 22 April 2011 (BST)

SERIOUS, EVERYTHING IS SERIOUS--Deadone 03:41, 22 April 2011 (BST)

Zombies in a zombie apocalypse? No fair!

"Ten months ago, I was first introduced to Urban Dead. A free online game about fighting hordes of the undead and surviving the zombie apocalypse… or so I thought. About seven months ago, I was excited to be playing the game, casually fighting zombies and barricading myself inside buildings while I slept. The game wasn’t and isn’t overly graphic, but I was more than capable of filling in the narrative myself. After getting myself skilled up a bit, four months ago, I decided to create a project for myself in the game, and a week later I had to modify that project due to what had become the glaring flaw in the game’s design. After I abandoned Munford, I took residence in the Pickford Cinema over in Osmondville…

At this point, I really wish I could say that things took off, the movie theater was made secure, we fortified the doors and beat back the walking dead, slowly spreading out to other theaters and growing a network of safe havens for people to pretend they are watching movies as the undead shamble out in the streets. I really wish I could.

The major design flaw in Urban Dead is that you, as a survivor, cannot win. And I don’t mean that in a “this is an MMO with endless grinding, a virtual world, and there will be no ‘You win! The end!’ screen.” sort of way… I mean that in a “There will always be more zombies because you can’t kill them for good because they are not NPCs, they are the other players.” sort of way.

A month we spend inside, making neighboring buildings safe, keeping the free running paths clear. Trips to the mall for supplies, gas from the gas station to keep the generators running… life was pretty good. Then a horde of zombies comes through, breaks down all the barricades, kills all the people, and makes a mess. Now, all us survivors are zombies. Luckily it doesn’t take too long to wander over to a NecroTech building with a revive point, but it does take nearly three weeks to get all those people revived (it takes 20 action points to make a syringe -but you can search for them and cut that down- and 10 action points to revive someone, after you spend a point DNA scanning them, so that 1 person, even if they already have the syringes, can only revive 4 people a day). It takes us another two weeks to get all the buildings back in good order, then the zombies come through again…

I don’t want to be a zombie. Obviously some people do. But when my game, as a survivor, is actually 75% of the time spent trying to recover from being killed… I would rather lose levels than this. Especially since I have no say in my deaths at all… they all happen when I’m offline.

I tried. I really tried. Its just not worth the frustration. I play games to be the hero, the guy that “wins”, not to be just another victim.

I’ll still be keeping my eye out for zombie games, and I still desire to make one… but for now, Urban Dead, as far as I’m concerned, is dead."
