[I]In death, the city stirs. Its borders still locked down after a sudden government quarantine three years ago, Malton's trapped civilians make their way through the derelict buildings, surviving the changing seasons to rebuild their fragmented society from the rubble upwards. Military cleanup squads patrol the empty streets, stationed in the city for the long haul, while embedded scientific groups continue the experiments that brought them here.

And the dead rise up and thrive, trailing through the ruined streets of the city, milling between buildings and clawing through makeshift barricades and diversions, reclaiming the city as their own.[/I]

Urban Dead is a "low tech" MMORPG that you play in your browser. It's the best brower game ever as it only takes 10-15 minutes a day to play. It is a post-apocalyptic zombie RPG with two sides to it: Survivors and Zombies. Survivors do just that: survive. They have no other fixed objective other then to try to live to see the next day. Zombies try to what every zombie loves best: eat Survivor brains. This is the best zombie game I've ever played. It is the closest thing that get's to all those people's "dream game" of simply surviving the zombie apocalypse. It's yourself, an open town, and a whole fuckload of zombies that want to eat [B]YOU[/B].

Urban Dead takes place in the fictional city of Malton. Malton is located in no where specific. While it has a very American city feel, there are also places that show it could be located somewhere in Europe. The bars, for example, are all named in a European style. It has no relation to the two towns named Malton that exist in real life. Malton has been sealed off to the rest of the world due to a virus of unknown origin that has caused the dead to rise. The number of dead grew rapidly and now the remaining people in Malton are trying to survive until...well, some form of hope arrives. Until then, they need to deal with the dead that now populate the city. You are one surivor among many. When you start playing Urban Dead you can pick one of several classes of Survivor, and they all come in three catagories: [B]Military[/B], [B]Scientist[/B], and [B]Civilian[/B].

[URL="http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Military"][IMG]http://i40.tinypic.com/sging7.jpg[/IMG][/URL]
Military classes represent the military forces left behind during the quarentine. They also have two of the better starting classes in the game and one of the worst. Survivors with the Military character class pay 75 XP for all Military skills, 150 XP for Science skills, and 100 XP for all other skills.

[B]Private[/B]
Private's are the basic soldier. They start with [I]Basic Firearms Training[/I] which allows them to hit more often with all firearms, and a pistol with some ammo to start killing right away. It's a good starting class. However, one problem you'll be facing early on is that guns take ammo, and you will be spending a lot of time searching for more after you run out of your initial two clips. Like all Military classes, they also pay a hefty price for Science skills.

[B]Medic[/B]
Medic's are healers, and the worst class to begin as in the Military tree. They only start with a pistol and a first aid kit, and there starting skill is [I]First Aid[/I] which is a loss of EXP early on. While you heal 5hp more then everyone else, you don't get any more EXP if you do. As a Medic you will spend a lot of time searching for first aid kits and wasting actions in combat because of your poor combat skills. I started as a Medic and I'm telling you NOT to start as one.

[B]Scout[/B]
Scout's are a very fast moving class. They start out with the amazing [I]Free Running[/I] skill. This allows you to enter a building from other buildings, avoiding the streets all together. However, you have no combat skills. Because of your manuverability you have a better chance of surviving for a longer time then other characters tho. My reccomendation is to find a building you will have easy access to get into [B]always[/B] and use it to get back into hiding when your done fighting zombies outside.

[URL="http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Scientist"][IMG]http://i43.tinypic.com/2qwo3ud.jpg[/IMG][/URL]
Scientists are characters who worked for the mysterious NecroTech company that worked out of Malton. The two Scientist classes are so-so starting classes. EXP can come easy for them, but combat will still be hard. Survivors with the Scientist character class pay 75 XP for all Science skills, 150 XP for Military skills, and 100 XP for all other skills.

[B]NecroTech Lab Assistant[/B]
Lab Assistants are decent to start with. They get good EXP by "tagging" zombies with there DNA Extractor, which they can only use at the begining because of the skill [I]NecroTech Employment[/I]. They have no combat skills however, and like all Scientists, Military skills are the most expensive. They will also have a hard time getting inside buildings since [I]Free Running[/I] is also a Military skill.

[B]Doctor[/B]
So what is the difference between a Doctor and a Medic? A Doctor starts with the [I]Diagnosis[/I] skills, which lets him see the HP of all injured Survivors. It makes healing a lot easier since you don't have to waste actions checking everyone to see if they are injured like a Medic has to. They start with two first aid kits. They have the same weaknesses as the Lab Assistant.

[URL="http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Civilian"][IMG]http://i43.tinypic.com/25q90f4.jpg[/IMG][/URL]
Civilians represent the every day citizens of Malton. Some are civil servants while others are just people. Civilians have two GREAT starting classes and one TERRIBLE one. Worse then the Medic. [B]Civilians pay 100 XP for all skills[/B], a huge advantage in the long run.

[B]Cop[/B]
Cop's are up there with the three best starting classes. They start with the skill [I]Basic Firearms Training[/I] and start with a pistol, flak jacket, and a radio. They come combat ready, but suffer the same problem as the Private: they need ammo. They are more flexable then the Private, however, because all skills for them cost 100 XP.

[B]Firefighter[/B]
[B]The Firefighter is the best starting class in the game.[/B] Your starting skill gives you the most combat ready and easiest to use character. Firefighter's start with [I]Axe Proficiency[/I] which makes it easter to his with his starting weapon, the fire axe, which is the best melee weapon in the game. They don't need to find ammo like a Private or a Cop, and they can level up within two days to get [I]Hand To Hand Combat[/I] which makes them a zombie chopping machine. If you are just starting in Urban Dead, [B]pick a Firefighter.[/B]

[B]Consumer[/B]
Consumers are so bad I forgot to talk about them when I posted this. They have the starting skill [I]Shopping[/I], which lets you find things in malls easier but that is about it. They have no combat ability, a random melee weapon to start with, and a cell phone which you can't even use right away because if your new, you don't know anyone to call. Don't be a Consumer.

[URL="http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Zombie"][IMG]http://i40.tinypic.com/oje534.jpg[/IMG][/URL]
Zombies are the enemy. Most of the time. You can also start out as a zombie! Zombies have a completly seperate set of skills open to them. You should get to know them since, at some point, you may find yourself as one of them. Zombies have access to the zombie skills tree, and pay 100 XP for all zombie skills. Click the image above for a full read on what the starting zombie can do.

Now, you may have seen me toss around a few terms like skills and EXP. Well, now I'll explain all that to you with a screenshot of the game.

[IMG]http://i41.tinypic.com/1zd0xuv.jpg[/IMG]

Starting with the right side of the screen on the top, you have your area description. Pretty self-explanatory. Down from there are your actions for the immediate area. Down from there is your characters inventory. Unless your a pack rat, you probably won't be carrying around that much stuff. On the left side starting on top is a grid of the city. You play on that. The top bar is the name of the suburb you are in. The building in the middle is always the building you are at. You can move to any of the buildings in that 6x6 grid and when you do the view will move and you will find more buildings. Under that if your characters status. Every character in the game starts with 50 HP and you can gain 10 more from a skill ([I]Body Building[/I]). Your EXP is counted in this box too. The most important thing here, more then your HP, is your Action Points (AP). You have a max of 50 AP and it regenerates at one every half hour. Every time you move, shoot, heal, talk, reload, enter, exit, [B]do something[/B], you use at least one AP. Under that are some menu options, but the most important in the Buy Skills menu. Here you can buy more skills for EXP. Any character can use any skill, you just need the EXP for it. If you start as a Scientist, you can still buy Military skills, etc. The second most important link is the Wiki button. The Wiki has EVERYTHING. If you want information on the suburb you are in, go to the wiki. If you want info on a certain group of people, check the wiki. It's all there.

So, now that I've presented you with everyone you need to know before playing Urban Dead, what about when you first start? Well, there are some things already written about that. [URL="http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/First_Day_in_Malton"]First Day in Malton[/URL] is a good guide to check out. The [URL="http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Main_Page"]Urban Dead Wiki[/URL] has a guide section right on the front page. As said before, it's the best place for Urban Dead information.If you have died, and don't want to be a zombie just check the wiki for a nearest Revive Point and post a revive request [URL="http://ud-malton.info/revive.php?State=Add+Request"]here[/URL]

I'm done talking. Click the logo at the top to get to Urban Dead. Go kill some zombies.

[U][B]THIS GAME IS HORRIBLY UNBALANCED. ONLY PLAY IF YOU ARE BORED OF UD AND WANT MORE FEATURES[/B][/U]

[I][B]So what is Quarantine 2019?[/B][/I]
Quarantine 2019 is a free browser-based zombie apocalypse multiplayer online role playing game (MMORPG). There are no NPCs – every human or zombie you meet in-game is a real person, all interactions in-game are entirely player generated.
It is inspired by Urban Dead and borrows some (most) game mechanics from there

[I][B]So why should I play this and not UD which is certainly better? [/B][/I]
Unlike UD the game can actually finish, the game is played in a series of "rounds". Once either the zombies or humans have completed the win condition for that round, all stats and skills are reset - this is to avoid having a few overpowered players and allows new players to the game to enter on a more-or-less level playing field. All game actions cost Energy Points, which are regenerated every 7 minutes 12 seconds, and can be stored to a maximum of 50 Energy Points. This prevents "hardcore" players from becoming overpowered and gives people who play less often a relatively level playing field.
Winning conditions are either develop the cure for survivors, or destroy all the buildings as a zombie
This game also has some features which some of you have really wanted to see in Urban Dead, like multi-floor layout, classes for zombies and faster EP (AP in Urban Dead) regeneration time (1 EP per 7 minutes)

[I][B]You told us about some neat features, so what is the complete list of differences between this and UD?[/B][/I]

-Round Based Gameplay

-Faster Paced (Because EP regenerates faster, and the overall town is smaller)

-Death does not mean instant-zombification (If you die while not being infected (bitten) by a zombie you can still stand up as a survivor)

-Objective Based Gameplay

-Multi-floor layout

-Dropped items can be picked up by other players

-Distinct Character Classes (Every class is playing ONLY his role, you won't have time to master all the skills anyways)

-No Freerunning (You only can climb into the barricaded safehouses with a chance of failing)

-You can choose the amount of EP to stand up (More you spend more HP you get)

-Skill Points and levels are two separate.

-Achievements

-Groups cost SkillPoints to form, and require an invite to join

-Serverwide chat

-Separate Zombie/Survivors groups. Survivors can't help Zombies and Vice Verca

[editline]11th February 2012[/editline]

Requesting a better thread name, I was out of ideas

[Psycho_Shadow]

I play all three of this very often.

Also the OP isn't a liar, q2019 is so horribly unbalanced it's not funny, so if you're feeling like taking an ass raping (or getting in line to give one) then play it. Just try and spawn as a zombie, then wait a half hour- there's gonna be 2-3 humans beating you with sledgehammers that have a 10:1 Kill:Death ration.

[neosloth]

Any UD players still active?
I see around 6 active players in my contact list

[OffTheRoad]

Well, I still play UD occasionaly. My current location is in Grigg Heights, defending a hospital that's right next to a police station. I'm wondering if a Necrotech building to the north is still up and running since I just used my last syringe.

[Firefox42]

I've played ud on and off since the last thread. I'd be willing to play more if we could get some more people to play again.

[neosloth]

In UrbanDead I'm in the Huntlei Heights, in The Plowright Building (NT)
Anyone nearby?

[Psycho_Shadow]

I play zombie for the most part, and almost always stay by fort perryn

[neosloth]

[QUOTE=Psycho_Shadow;34752922]I play zombie for the most part, and almost always stay by fort perryn[/QUOTE]
Who is controlling the fort now?

[Psycho_Shadow]

[QUOTE=superstepa;34752931]Who is controlling the fort now?[/QUOTE]

We are. of course.

Whenever the humans do take it, it's back in our hands within a few days.

[OffTheRoad]

I wish I were there, because the police station and the hospital were both overrun and ransacked by a sudden horde. Damn, how I'd love to get the hell out.
