Is it worth it to live in west point?

[Ali G]

Like is it for real. Because there are lots of zombies there as far i can remember.

[Xgpmcnp]

There are a lot of nice facilities there, good police station, nice gas station, it's close to louisville and the military checkpoint so it's a decent place to settle. Personally I go there in the midgame to prepare for louisville raids.

It is a personal question and subject to lots of opinions.

Does living in west point fit your playstyle?
You will have to ask yourself some questions:

Do you like the idea of being in a town?
Are you prepared to clear the area for a safe base?
Are you role play minded and have a backstory why West Point might be a place to secure?

West point is as viable an area as any other point on the map. You can base up anywhere and survive.

I explored west point in game but... I got bitten to shreds

[atlas]

not worth to spawn in unless you are going to louisville in first days. just go to another spawn location.

YIKES.

maybe if you want to attack West Point for its goodies, set up just outside of town, on the water side( for water) and then make forays into town.

You have a safe fall back camp to regroup and make plans.

Never spawned in rosewood is it good?

[Shady Allie]

Rosewood is a valid start area. Give it a go and see how you like it.

Has a school and bookstore for skill books.
police shop for gunz.
firehouse that people seem to love to live in.
not to terrible with the dead.

[Ittrix]

Rosewood is the best starting area imo. Less POI's but it's got enough for you to get everything you'd want or need. There's two major towns just up the road even if you're missing stuff.

[hardy_conrad]

Yeah Rosewood isn't a place I'd want to stay at because it lacks so much but your chances of getting immediately munched are considerably reduced.

[The early worm deserves the bird]

I usually start in West Point. Yes there are a lot of zombies there but if you START there you can do a pretty good job at cleaning everything out. After a month goes by you'll need to be more cautious but starting there isn't that bad. West Point and Muldraugh both have a lot of zombies but West Point is smaller so there are less places to flee to and less places to lead zombies away from. It's not that big of an issue but simply a thing you'll have to deal with due to the location.

Westpoint has a lot of loot locations but to clear the town for mass looting operations takes awhile

It took me a full in game week solely using Machetes, Shotguns, and Molotovs to clear Westpoint of the undead

[Death]

I love West Point. It's my main spawn location, because there's a lot of good loot in the town and it's also close to the river. The zombie pop is a bit on the thick side though, so I don't really recommend it for newer players, but if you've pretty much got a handle on the game, then it's a pretty damn good place to be.

What about this area called march ridge first time heard of it

its a suburban ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ dont bother

[SgtEmissary [Kane's Will]]

I started out with Muldraugh then spawned in Rosewood for awhile - later on I spawned in West Point mostly - then it came full circle and now I'm spawning back in Muldraugh for the majority of my time. Both for nostalgia and It's a nice in-between, with good loot, not as many zeds as West Point.

For West Point itself; aside from the high numbers of zeds it has everything you need; homes, police station, gun shop, pharmacy, the Giga-Mart, the warehouses and in the latest update there's a new tire/mechanic's shop near the bridge. The city has a good layout in general and it's easy to navigate. So for experienced players West Point is pretty perfect.

March Ridge has some value with it's VHS store and being a military housing complex a good chance to find some weaponry. Survivor homes have a high likelihood of generating there and vehicles. Otherwise I wouldn't go to March Ridge normally.
