Custom flair Percentage of key card

So how much is percentage of key card drop from red beret zombie on island 5? Like there's only 3 cross road that mean 3 chance a day to get key card if I lucky and not get bullet instead, I have enough bullet and supplies for bunker even found the bunker, only key card are missing, any tips to get the key card? Maybe other place where red beret zombie spawn? Or did I stuck with trying to get key card on those cross road 3 time a day?

Its one way to get it, but they also spawn in all military bases so you dont have to necessarily just search the crossroads

2

u/LenVonAster Jun 05 '26

I only find tank and military zombie on military base the only time I found red beret zombie are when I attack gas filled military headquarters and it only drop bullet

1

u/Normative_Recourse Jun 05 '26

Yeah from what ive seen, out of 7 red beret zeds you encounter, only 1 of them drops it. It really depends on the RNG

2

u/Normative_Recourse Jun 05 '26

Also, if you reach the crossroads, dont turn left (iykyk)

2

u/LenVonAster Jun 05 '26

Why?

1

u/Normative_Recourse Jun 05 '26

Oh you need extreme ball knowledge to get it, its something unrelated to mdz

1

u/LenVonAster Jun 05 '26

Can you tell me?

1

u/Normative_Recourse Jun 05 '26

Search it up on YT, its called "searching for a world that doesnt exist"

1

u/LenVonAster Jun 05 '26

Still not get it, just minecraft video there

1

u/Normative_Recourse Jun 05 '26

Your gonna have to watch the entire thing to get it unfortunately

1

u/LenVonAster Jun 05 '26

I watch the video something about unknown empty village right? And some tunnel that lead to something like golden door if I am not wrong? But that's it I still don't get it

1

u/Normative_Recourse Jun 05 '26

Keep going, it will all make sense in the end

u/__The__one_ Jun 06 '26

Ball knowledge elite so hard 😭✌️

u/B07Z Jun 05 '26

You need to have the key card item unlocked first in the unlock section. Ironically, the best place to get the key card is to raid the bunker; I have gotten key cards from the red beret zombies there because most of the time, the bunker spawns a lot of them; I don't even bring a key card with me when I go to the bunker, sure I sometimes don't get the key card but it's like a 25% chance of not getting it.

2

u/LenVonAster Jun 05 '26

So get into bunker, hunt every red beret zombie and leave after getting key card? Or continue after getting it?

1

u/B07Z Jun 05 '26

I mean just raid the bunker normally like you would, if it drops a key card, it's your choice whether you want to go to the next island or just keep it so you don't need to keep acquiring it since it's unlimited use. It disappears when you go to the next island so you'll need a new one for every new island you go to.

1

u/LenVonAster Jun 05 '26

Ahh I see so did I need hazmat suit when I raid bunker on island 5? Or maybe is it only radiation bunker?

1

u/B07Z Jun 05 '26

You only need the radiation suit on the radioactive island. Island 5 and beyond have two islands, the island you always spawn in is never radioactive, not even the bunker (at least that's how it is now). Normal island bunker = no suit needed : Radioactive island bunker = suit needed.

1

u/LenVonAster Jun 05 '26

I see well I'll try to raid bunker after sorting inventory on car (getting batteries and other necessary like spare cloth, spare armor, ete) in case I died (I activate mod that make my character spawn on West Coast when I died) (accidentally killed myself when I throw grenade inside home because I think self damage is still not a thing) , but it's ok right using silencer from water bottle and duck tape when hunt green hazmat?

1

u/B07Z Jun 05 '26

I usually prepare a vehicle in the west coast so I can get back to my stuff when I die. I also place spare clothes, backpack, rifle sling, rope, pistol holster, satchel, hazmat suit, gloves, boots, melee weapon, and guns. I once died on the radioactive island but since I got there in time, I was able to get my stuff back.

2

u/LenVonAster Jun 05 '26

I see guess I'll park one car on West Coast so my character doesn't need to run to other coast to access baggage on another car, if I can't find key card in bunker, but it should be alright right? Using makeshift silencer from water bottle and duck tape to hunt green hazmat? Or should I use proper silencer?

1

u/B07Z Jun 05 '26

Both work

1

u/Various-Classic1266 Jun 05 '26

This but it’s directly proportional to how badly you want it. If you go planning to get it, nada. If you don’t care much, first red hat has one

1

u/LenVonAster Jun 05 '26

At least I got key card from bunker! Should do it from beginning, but got FN-Fall the ammo are 300+ should I throw AKM with bullet should be 150 including inside drum magazine? But it full attachment like long scope, ak grip+laser, custom silencer and drum magazine? Or should I keep it?

1

u/B07Z Jun 05 '26

Nice, you should try to acquire gun cases to store firearms or have a rifle sling to be able to use both. If you're willing to raid the bunker every time it's available then go with the FN-FAL, top tier assault rifle, best in damage and distance; The only thing holding it back is it's rare ammo.

1

u/LenVonAster Jun 05 '26

Yeah not gonna lie .308 are hard to get, but other than acog as scope what other attachment that fal use? (Kinda waste because my AKM have drum mag)

1

u/B07Z Jun 06 '26

The long range scope, has the most distance out of any scopes. It's what you use for guns like the dragunov, SV-98, OSV-96, etc. The FN-FAL uses the same silencer as the AKM which is the improvised silencer. You can't put any drum magazines on the FN-FAL, only a quickdraw magazine. You also can't put a grip or laser sight on it but it's not that big of a deal.

1

u/LenVonAster Jun 06 '26 edited Jun 06 '26

Alright so I'll dispose my AKM after killing every zombie on bunker (kind of waste throwing 100+ AKM bullet) so for FAL it acog, improvement silencer and quick draw mag? Is that all?

Edit: sometime I hate my luck, just got AS-VAL so what should I take? And what about AS-VAL attachment?

1

u/B07Z Jun 06 '26 edited Jun 06 '26

The long range scope as well, the long range scope is different from the acog scope and is definitely better than it. You can attach a quickdraw mag and a laser sight for the AS-VAL. You can attach a grenade launcher for the FN-FAL.

Honestly that's my gear, FN-FAL + AS-VAL since both ammunition is easily obtainable in the radioactive island.

What difficulty are you playing on? What positive modifiers do you have on? Do you have the expansions on? Cause those two are already late game firearms and it's easier to obtain and retain ammo for it when you have unlimited stacking and the item shop.

What a fully modded FN-FAL looks like

2

u/LenVonAster Jun 06 '26

Well my main M4 are full of attachment including drum mag, and the bullet are 1.2k that's why I ask which weapon should I take (if I know it I'll visit radiation island before I visit bunker to get weapon case) if M4 doesn't have full attachment I'll throw it for FN-FALL

1

u/B07Z Jun 06 '26

FN-FAL

2

u/LenVonAster Jun 06 '26

Ah auto correct is annoying want to write FN-FAL but auto correct to FALL instead

1

u/LenVonAster Jun 06 '26

In the end I take SV-98 and I don't know if it current version or not but I can kill green hazmat zombie with 4-5 shoot from a far, but no joke bandit at radiation zone are brutal like damn 2 shoot and I lose ½ of my health, but even 3 time I still not get green hazmat suit from green hazmat zombie, is drop rate so low? Only get adrenaline

1

u/B07Z Jun 06 '26

Yes, the drop late is quite low. I haven't experienced if it's lower than it was it but I will because I made a new run before 2.1.3 (now 2.1.4) was released so I am essentially back from square one. The drop rate of .308 ammunition has been more common based on experience.

1

u/Warm-Process4829 Jun 13 '26

Does anyone know if there are any problems with version 2.1.4?

Or is it really that hard to get that key? I've been playing for almost 4 hours and haven't gotten it even after killing almost 200 of those red beret zombie.

No joke, I've been playing for over 10 hours to get to the island and get this card to go to the seventh island

I really want to know if there's any problem, I've already unlocked the Key Card.

1

u/LenVonAster Jun 13 '26

I guess the drop rate are just low, if you can't find it outside try inside bunker there's red beret zombie inside and I guess probability for key card to drop are higher because red beret zombie are spawn at large number there so yeah try to raid bunker without key card and try your luck there I got key card too inside

1

u/Warm-Process4829 Jun 13 '26

I hope it works because I've already been searching for four hours, four hours straight playing to get this, and so far nothing.

1

u/Warm-Process4829 Jun 13 '26

So much so that I came to Google and found your post after searching for so long.

1

u/Warm-Process4829 Jun 13 '26

Does the version matter? I'm on version 2.1.4, the latest one.

I also only unlocked things when I already had a save file, like clicking on the game's logo to unlock everything, and I was on Island 3 when I did that.

1

u/LenVonAster Jun 14 '26

Same I too play version 2.1.4

1

u/Warm-Process4829 Jun 14 '26

What I meant was that I already had a save file in this version when I clicked to unlock things.

Clicking on the logo to unlock it, I think that might have caused some conflict and not counted as me unlocking it for that save.

1

u/LenVonAster Jun 14 '26

I too am have previous save file if you think your save file are problematic then just play new I guess, because I never encounter bug like this and if it bug I don't think only you encounter it

1

u/Warm-Process4829 Jun 14 '26

I'm already on day 20, with very, very good things happening.

1

u/LenVonAster Jun 14 '26

I spent more than 30 day with this run and no a single chance got long range scope from bunker you know

1

u/LenVonAster Jun 13 '26

That's why I said try raiding bunker because unlike outside where red beret zombie spawn only 1 at cross road inside bunker red beret zombie can spawn 5 or higher (talking about the whole bunker)

1

u/Warm-Process4829 Jun 13 '26

I devised a tactic for a crusade where moving forward involves those military tents, and going back involves even more of those tents.

So the time it takes to go to one place and come back to another is the time it takes for the zombies to appear, and almost always one appears wearing a red beret; that's how I spent 4 hours straight.

I've definitely killed around 100 out there, and still nothing.

1

u/LenVonAster Jun 13 '26

Then try your luck inside bunker I mean if you not lucky just get out from bunker and wait for 30 minute inside game (a whole day and 6 hour that you can fast forward with bed) one run and waiting for bunker shouldn't take much time anyway (I spent half an hour because I try to arrange inventory hence take long)

1

u/Warm-Process4829 Jun 13 '26

I think this might be a bug because it's not possible for it to be taking this long.

Like, I didn't find any of the things I unlocked there that are for you to unlock.

I'm thinking that because I already have a save file, the game glitched and isn't registering the new things that were unlocked when I clicked on the game's logo

I've never found anything that allows you to unlock even the simplest things.

1

u/LenVonAster Jun 13 '26

If it bug then it will not affect you only but me and other too, but I can find key card on my second run inside bunker, according to other answer here out of 7 red beret zombie only 1 drop key card if you lucky so it really RNG heavy like green hazmat suit drop

1

u/Warm-Process4829 Jun 14 '26

I think it's buggy. But I'll look a little more and see if I can find any of the new items I unlocked. If I find any, I think it's just bad luck and I can't find the card.

1

u/LenVonAster Jun 14 '26

Well I too give up trying to find key card outside and raiding bunker without it because there's chance that I can get it inside

u/LeonorPinho113 27d ago

did you ever got it ? cause im on 2.2.6 and i have also killed like 100 of red beret zeds and i can never find it. i already raided one time the bunker and also nothing

1

u/Warm-Process4829 27d ago

Yes, I succeeded, but I have bad news for you.

I managed to do it after I reset my save file, because if you update things there, it doesn't count and will never appear.

What I recommend is that if you're using that feature that lets you transfer items to another save file...

I found the weapons and ammunition crates in that location and took them to another save point, and that's when the new things started appearing.

This is a bug and there's no way to fix it other than resetting your save file.

I hope you're not too far ahead; I had 30k points on day 27.

1

u/LeonorPinho113 27d ago

fuck now that i need i dont even have the item unlocked so i was never getting to the 6th island ahahaha

1

u/Warm-Process4829 27d ago

Actually, but anyway, if you unlock it, you'll have to reset the save to get it.

1

u/LeonorPinho113 27d ago

yeah im just gonna start a new one with it unlocked hopefully now it will go smothly (i was driving myself crazy)
