Urban Dead is an MMO Zombie Survival Horror game, along the same lines as Dawn of the Dead, where you have to survive in a City over run with Zombies, alongside other survivors. There are Police Stations, Fire Stations, Museums, Malls and other buildings to explore, and barricade yourself into. Band together with other survivors to form a functional band of merry men, and attempt to cleanse the city of the foul scourge.

However...If you fail to kill the Zombies, and wake up one day to find yourself dead, perhaps because you didn't barricade that door securely enough before you ran out of Action Points, or because you foolishly slept in the street, then join the rampaging horde of blood thirsty zombies, mindlessly hungering brains. Cursed for eternity to roam with like minded players, breaking into safehouses in search of your brain 'fix'. There is the possibility that a righteous player could revive you though...

- Start off as either 3 different types of Soldier, 3 types of Civilian, or 2 types of Scientist, or choose to start as a member of the Undead
- Play alongside thousands of other survivors and Zombies
- Try to survive by barricading yourself in buildings, looting malls for supplies, and fighting off the undead hordes as they numbly batter themselves against the walls of your safehouse.

Group Wiki Page

To join the group all you need to do is click on your name underneath the map (in the game window) and edit your profile to include "OcUK" in the group field.

The city is pretty darn large, so probably better to say where you are as well (should say at top of a map). If a large amount of people are interested we can arrange to meet somewhere (there is a map on the Wiki).

im in houldenbank come find me im in the school and ive left the doors open.
I'm in Crooketon, on the other side of the city. Look up the map on http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Main_Page to see. If you have an AP left, I'd recommend trying to find a barricaded building to hide in while you're not playing, or at least shut the doors of the School. Schools are very low-priority buildings for Zombies, so you might be alright, unlike Police Stations etc where players like to find ammunition and guns, so zombies like looking in them.
 
"Bubba Spoons", Cop with 21xp (w00t), capped my first Zombie earlier.

Holed up in an Auto Repair shop in Crooketon (far left) with Very Strong Barricades, so should be alright for tonight. Tomorrow I'm going to look into getting right across the city to Penny heights (from far west to far east) to meet up with some other players I know from another forum. Probably try to go via a Mall a few suburbs in from the one I'm currently in. Should be interesting.

It doesnt let you do anything???
Spent my 50 action points walking around searching for things and didnt find a thing, spoke to people but they didnt answer and fired all my bullets at a zombie and missed. Great game! ...
Those people probably weren't logged in, so you were in effect talking to no one.
 
I created the OcUK page on the Wiki, should be able to find it under Human groups.
(I'm assuming no one has made it already).

Who will be our leader?
How many members have we got? (need some sort of a roll call).

Ok, I got the Hospital. I see there is a Zombie inside.I just DNA'd it. I have a pistol clip that I found and 1 AP left. Anything you want me to do? (tell me how)

Also with the searching, is it random so for example I search once and find nothing, if I search that same area could I find something?

Feels all dawn of the Deady

Cheers

Yes, re-searching can yield items.

I've made a tactical retreat to the PD as I had no ammo, and couldn't afford to waste all my AP swinging my axe at the zombie and end up being zombie food. Will be back to take a few pot shots in the near future if it's still there.
 
Right, any ideas as to content on the wiki page?
http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/OcUK

Are we going to be roleplaying on this wiki page? If so, what is our background story? What are our motives and overall goals? The liberation of Kinch Heights?
An interesting fact about Kinch Heights is that there is another group who wish to make it into Chinatown (go to the Kinch Heights page on the wiki) which is mighty weird, although we wouldn't want any PvP disputes, or would we? Are we going to move on eventually?

So many questions :p

Hahahahahahahahahaha!

Just healed a zombie 4 times, bagging myself 20xp.
I then shot it 3 times (missed 3 times) but the bugger had a flak jacket on :( , so I got another 12xp.
So now I've got 84xp in total. Come on 100!
 
I've updated the Wiki page to reflect our new membership count, showing ~40 at the moment on there.
Tomorrow I'll be on a final drive to reach over 100xp (finally) and I'll be getting my 55% Pistol chance (w00t), then the real fun will begin.

Your self-imposed Dictator,

We seem to have come out of nowhere to become a top 10 group. Just need to get the XP in for members now :).

Does the Wiki page list the actual members or do we have to manually search in game to find people? I've given up trying to add people to my contact list as it uses precious AP.
No, there is (as far as I know) no way of getting a list of members, perhaps everyone who is a member could post here with their in-game name, and I could compose a full list (of everyone who posts anyway).

So how do I join this OcUK group??

Is there some kind of button in the game?
Click on your name underneath the game map, and your profile will come up. Edit this, and change your group to 'OcUK'.
 
Okily doke, I'm starting the members list. Post with your name, rank, and favourite cheese, and I'll get the list underway.
(self editing the list into your post might make my life easier ;) )

So how do i get xp then? With 2 chars i've only ever hit 1 zombie once, seems to take bloody ages.
A good way to get XP is to trawl through hospitals (search repeatedly) to find lots of first aid kits. Healing people bags you 5xp a go, and is a good way to get xp. Start off as a Private or Cop, and once you've bagged your first level you can have 55% pistol chance. The only problem is the you need to dig around for ammo. Another option is to start as a firefighter, you start with 25% Fireaxe, follow the afformentioned tactic, and your first skill will get you to 40%. The good thing about this is that you don't need to search for ammo, unlike the pistol.

pah, stuff you guys then, i'm gonna start my own OcUK army of the undead :D :p
Well if you promise to be a friendly Zombie then you're welcome :p The problem is the inability to identify you, could end up shooting you in a firefight :D
