      PID: ZeusBBS 1.5 3f2       MSGID: 1:19/38 E7F66CF6       REPLY: 215.fidodoom@1:154/40 22df7c03       TID: CrashMail 1.30/b 2000       I'm sure it wasn't at the time, but that story about the ammo was funny. I've       had stuff happen like that and eventually I end up looking at the computer like        "You have to be kidding me!?!?".              When I first started playing the game I had no clue what you did and didn't       need, so I started picking up everything that wasn't nailed down while trying       to find a hammer to get the rest of it. I'm famous for grabbing everything in       site in these kinds of games because "I might need it later". It didn't take       too many piles of scrap metal before I realized I was going to have to make       some serious adjustments or starve / freeze to death.                      On Tuesday March 24, 2020, John Hiemenz said to Ray Sbaitso...               JH> The maps are not endless, and you basically have free roaming rights        JH> over any of the maps with the premise of just try and survive.
