Appendix CAbout this server, in its own words

Hosted by Rusting Away Welcome to Infected PvE 3x — a custom survival experience where the world never stops fighting back. This is a PvE-focused world built around zombie outbreaks, scaling danger, and long-term progression. Start fresh, build your base, and adapt as the infection spreads and the world becomes more hostile over time. Progress through skill systems, unlock stronger gear, and survive increasingly dangerous infected zones and roaming hordes. The longer you stay, the harder the world becomes — and the more rewarding survival gets. No PvP. No offline raids. Just you, the infected, and everything trying to take you down.
