house bookshelves, the bookstore on the main road, really anywhere any magazines can spawn, along with sheds and garages

what are crowds like there? I've haven't quite gotten to the police station yet but have been to the gas station 4 times

inland igloo
#

the hordes there are pretty bad

#

i would honestly just suggest finding a car and making your way to rosewood

finite river
#

i have a car

#

not a reliable one though

inland igloo
#

you would have a much better chance of finding it in the school or the bookstore

finite river
#

haven't figured out what's wrong with my car, but it starts poorly

#

so I'm worried about taking it into dense areas

inland igloo
#

is the engine bad?

#

if its stalling then thats bad but if it takes a while to start then thats fine since your not turning off your car in dense areas

finite river
#

o rly?

inland igloo
#

yeah if you go to the front of the car and open the hood you should be able to see what condition its in

#

what matters the most is the engine

#

you could also intentionally shout to draw all the nearby zombies into a house or something, and hop a fence to lose them

#

also if you click on the engine you should be able to see the engine quality which is its chance to start each time

finite river
#

i haven't done that much

inland igloo
#

i would suggest just heading to rosewood but if you cant you can try shouting then heading into the woods next to the bookstore to lose them then looping back around

Rosewoods small and boring, muldraugh has way more action

id look for it on this order until i find it:
-library
-school
-gas station
-big houses

The library marked in green by the main road is gonna be your best shot in MD. Other than that you're on the right road already. Keep searching bookshelves in houses.

I ended up finding one not too long after this

#

in this clump

#

I think we can consider this closed 🙂

#

I know it's late but this cul-de-sac is basically guaranteed to find a gen mag

#

I started heading there looking for more fresh food on the day of grid down

#

but too many zombies to play through there hastily

shy pecan
#

yea it was like a 2 day trip for me lol

finite river
#

Now that grid down, I'm a bit more nervous about sleeping in random houses for extended trips

shy pecan
#

I get that, but as long as line of sight is cut off and you have a door or window between you and the zeds you should be fine

#

you could also sleep in your car with the drivers side up against a wall

finite river
#

yea I just don't have that comfort figured out yet

shy pecan
#

I hear ya

finite river
#

i just got comfortable with flashing doors open/close instantly

#

while in attack stance

#

but I still get nervous when I know a zed is behind a door

shy pecan
#

yup I get it

#

I would suggest starting some runs where you're not intending on surviving too long, just kinda go balls to the wall fighting and running around just to get comfortable with the environment and the zeds presence around you

#

I did that on my laptop last night between meetings

#

basically tried to see how big of a mob I could handle

#

40 was a challenge

shy pecan
#

nice

finite river
#

but I got ~15 of the 40

#

so that was nice

shy pecan
#

cool yea stuff like that should help in the long run

#

good luck to you!

#

I parked a police cruiser, turned on the lights and siren, and did some tests

#

really interesting to see you can't shout zeds to you by a cruiser

dunno if it was mentioned but they can also spawn in mailboxes so try checking there if you can't find one
