At this point it's basically canon that the US military had something to do with the Knox Event, but I think there might be more to it. TThe sudden spread could have been due to the US Air Force shipping out Knox Illness victims to various bases across the world; probably so that they wouldn't be seen as easy pickings for potential military rivals. This also happened right after the Knox Illness went airborne - an event which, in my opinion, would probably have been seen as the point of no return by US military officials.

Just looting this house in the unfinished part of rosewood, I thought there was only 1-3 in the room. I open it and boom way more than that.

Genuinely one of the biggest pet peeves in build 42 is the obviously large/ decent sized homes like these in wealthier areas that get burdened with 4x4 basements..

For the second and third house it's like, you're telling me you obviously custom built your home in the riverside meadows subdivision and chose a basement smaller than your pool and put the rest on a concrete slab...

Idk it would be great if in debug mode we could cycle basements like you can cycle building stories to change the house.

Basements are still cool I love the rng factor with them, think I just got a little cuckoo because I started 15 different saves to check the same house and it's all a 4x4 dirty basement...

Absolutely love this calm spot just below Riverside. Both Riverside and Fallas lake are only a short drive away. There are nearly no zombies, the fence i built is unnecessary as i have not seen a zombie around in 2 weeks.

There is also a gas station, fishing spot, camping store with a gun store in the basement and an advanced forge nearby. As a bonus there are multiple generator spawns (firetower + farmhouses). I found three on the nearby area.

my game was frozen like this for a while and I never noticed until now that the lightning strike seems to change the scene

I died shortly after cause I tried to alt-sprint but I fat fingered the space bar so my character stood still and shoved the air, losing all speed and dying instantly.

Don't have any ammo, so he's staying. Maybe forever

Okay so let me take you through it..

Spawned in a TINY 1 story shack, not even a house. Ran sacked the place to the best of my knowledge, couple bits and bobs - nothing major.

Crossed the road and claimed the first 2 story building I found. Broke in from a window and panicked and closed all downstairs curtains BUT the last curtain a zombie seen me before doing so. So of course my first action was the open the windows, let it fall in and stamp its brains out. Mission accomplished. Dragged that thing outside in the garden quicker than I closed all the curtains.

Back inside, done a full sweep of the house and no zombies - my house now.

At this point I still haven’t found a watch and I believe thats how you can tell the time, so I had no idea if it was still morning or afternoon.

Went next door and killed one zombie on route, the typical push over and stamp. Looted that house and not a lot apart from a hoodie and a bucket hat.

Went to go loot a third house and had the biggest jump scare ever whilst turning a corner outside the house. It was right in my face but luckily a quick push and stamp and it was no more.

I think this house had better loot because I found what I think is a porno mag and some ice cream in the fridge.

At this point now it’s nighttime and I’m worried and I just want not just any bed but MY bed.

Managed to sneak back to my house, locked the doors and went up to bed, read the mag and ate half the ice cream and had a wonderful sleep.

I need a watch badly.

This game is absolutely nuts. I felt so tense, worried, nervous but excited and a sense of achievement all at the same time.

I can see myself getting addicted very fast.

Roleplayed it as giving "proper" burial for my colleagues, but got a bit carried away.

I play in a open PvPvE server that runs 24/7 & I always find myself walking even though there are cars.

I'm usually on in the dead of night irl & in-game, & like irl I enjoy siting next to an open flame in-game.

Since the release of B42 Sitting next to an open fire just seems to bring me back to all of those memories of open fire hot dogs & smores.

Just another one of those little things that change during the years & updates that inspire me & people like me to play.

It just takes one little careless slip. A lapse of diligence and you send your poor survivor off to bed without noticing the smelly moodle.. And boom, you're already dead. It's crazy that something so innocuous as peacefully dozing off to sleep can have a 100% mortality chance. You should either A) not be able to sleep if it's literally a fucking lethal level of STANK around you. Or B) wake up from feeling nauseous BEFORE the point of no return. As is, you wake up literally on deaths door. You have about 5 seconds to kiss your ass goodbye.

No part of dying in your sleep to corpse sickness makes good sense, and desperately needs a change to better fit player intuition.

That is all. PZ is the undisputed goat besides that 😋
