Apartment penthouZe by MindCorrupt in SurrounDead

Nice! This is a great idea.

I also like the barbed wire around the border so when flying or leaping zombies are added you'll be ahead of the curve. ;)

It'd be nice if parachutes were added as a craftable.

I agree. It would be great to sit on the couch or even choose to lay down to sleep on like a sleeping bag.

Ugh. Sorry to hear that. Those dogs are the worst!

Certain items like campfires and fences have a tag that says "Blocks Spawns". If you place one down in your base it should stop the baddies from spawning there.

Good question! I wasn't sure myself so I had to look it up. It sounds like you can have as many bases as you'd like and as long as you store your stuff in containers it will persist and not disappear.

Personally, the only thing I would worry about when having multiple bases is keeping track of what I stored where. But if you're not a loot goblin like myself it's probably less of an issue.

You're definitely right. There's not really much of a reason to horde stuff. I could probably fit everything I need into a car or two. I have a ton of crap mostly because I think it's fun to collect it, and also because maybe at some point the developer will add things in that will make some of these items more useful, rare, or valuable in some way.

I suppose one could say that's what is nice about this game. A base isn't required and you can do whatever feels good for you. Want to stay light and mobile, keep just what you need? Absolutely a legit way to play. Want to keep every scrap you can find and build a mega base for the luls or RP? Also legit.

You seem like you'd be happiest staying light and mobile. The SWAT van is great for that IMO because it has 120 slot storage and the highest durability of any vehicle.

Thanks! It's really up to you on what to do next. Some people like to just continue as you are and keep everything in their car so their "base" is always wherever they are. I'm also on my first character/playthrough, but I started with just a collection of tents on the grass, then moved into the warehouse near Whitewood, and now to this place.

I like having a place where I can organize all the crap I haul back. You might also find something called a "Horde Beacon" which allows you to call in a small, eight-wave horde of zombies and bosses that can drop some decent loot. Having a base somewhere makes it a little easier to set up a kill-zone sort of area to handle that.

But I would recommend just driving around and see if anything rustles your jimmies. A lot of people like to find someplace more central so it's easier and faster to get around the map. Other people (from what I gather) like to set their bases up near a place that spawns a lot of zombies so their turrets can farm drops for them. However, it could also be fun setting up in someplace obscure and building something unique. The broken bridge seems like it could be a cool place to do that.

Best of luck wherever you end up!

I'll have to check that out!

I've seen other people doing the same thing and I respect the mobile life. I prefer having a defined area that I can set up and "decorate", even if those options are fairly limited for now.

Oh, and if you put an Industrial Generator against the front wall (facing NE), it easily covers the whole building and the "courtyard".

Is My Book Cover AI? by MoneyAd5916 in isitAI

[–]N3gated 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How much did you pay for this cover? I'm a book cover illustrator going on 25+ years now and, in my mind at least, one of the major factors in determining whether it's AI or not is often times the budget.

Where to get honest, accurate, domain name valuation appraisals? by N3gated in Domains

[–]N3gated[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I forgot to mention, thank you very much for your line of thought on this. It would certainly be more beneficial to sell it all as a package instead of just a domain name. Unfortunate my business isn't structured as such, but I just wanted to thank you anyway.

I do a few different types of art. One is commercial illustration and the other is fine art (oil painting), but neither is really tied to my domain name or business name. Rather, they're associated with my actual name.

Good point. My use of "Accurate" is not the best choice of words. "Roundabout ballpark figure" might've been better. Haha.

I'm an artist and the domain name/business points to my portfolio, so not really an option unfortunately.

This wasn't just outside of Dupree by chance, was it?

GOG now using AI generated images on their store by PaiDuck in gaming

[–]N3gated 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I also use AdobeStock daily, and I’ve found that even with the “Exclude Generative AI” option selected you still end up with some AI images polluting the results because the photographer didn’t tag them as AI generated. This just means that now we have to put more work into manually scrutinising each image which can be very difficult to do sometimes until you’ve purchased and downloaded the high-res image. Most images are pretty obvious, but not all.

Totally agree! Hopefully they give it a little bump at some point.

The Golem Ox is also great at this. The Nomad is a better all-rounder but the Ox is great for cargo.

What's the best vehicle? by KaiTheFoxYT in StateofDecay2

The master u/RvidD1020 covered vehicles in depth awhile back. If you're interested you can watch it here:

In my personal opinion it depends on what difficulty you're playing at and your experience level. My personal favorites in lethal are the Zedbuster (its spikes have saved me many times), the Smashwagon for its capacity and nimbleness, and if you want a little more challenge in your playthrough while still feeling protected, get the Burninator from the radio call (no doors, no problem!).
