I think the zeds need to go in an entirely different direction. It needs to feel more like a zobie infestation. Zeds should be EVERYWHERE and number in the hundreds all over the map, even the wooded areas and inside buildings. Keep them slow to medium speed and fix the aggro and investigation AI. I'm sick of sitting on top of hills 500m away, firing my SVD, and seeing the ENTIRE town of Olympic sprinting zeds heading DIRECTLY for my position. I'd much rather scout a town, plan my entrance and exit strategy, carefully kill the zeds that get in my way with my limited resources and ammo, then get out before I'm swarmed or overrun.

Looks like my NVG's go back into the tent, on my empty server. Until nighttime that is.

I had a camp disappear off my home server and chalked it up to a bad server restart. I logged back in today and my tents are back but all my stuff is gone. Not only that but two additional empty tents have spawned in the same place.

You've already answered your own question, it's a glitch, not much you can do about it. However, your gear is on your dead body still. You just have to go back to where you logged off at.

Oh sweet, I hope a server restart fixes this because it just happened to me too. A couple of bandit camps are gone that I know of as well, so I know my camp wasn't discovered and stolen.

Yeah? What you expect?

They are all on sniper hill.

It's time to go camp looting. If I were you , I would keep my camp on a low pop server and hop to a full server and go looking for camps. I got real good at this and now I have enough tents and equipment to change my loadouts for specific missions (like sniping, counter-sniping, zombie hunting etc.) I use my "scared to lose" equipment when I go zed hunting and just take a shitty gun like my M16A1 with just meat, meds, and basic survival gear when I go bandit hunting. That way when I die, no fucks are given and I go back to camp and get fitted again.

I've never heard of this site before though I generally follow the philosophy of if you have to ask, you can't run it.

The video card is the most important part. You're looking at a slideshow at best, not worth even trying to run games on that laptop.

Before the game goes standalone I have one request...functional sunglasses. I'm sick of the glare on the compass, the glare on the horizon and the glare off my scopes. Anything else you can think of?

Go back to the same server you logged into when you got debugged. Backtrack to the exact place you died and your body will be there. I've stumbled across two dead bodies of mine that I forgot about after a debugging. This is also the reason I only log out in "safe" areas where my body will be undisturbed until I can get back to it.

I agree with your logic Hoggy. The only problem I have with it is I spend a lot of time acquiring that gear. PvP is nothing more than a game of I spy. You can be the most equipped player in-game but if you are spotted first you are likely dead already. I've been playing long enough to have a well hidden camp with loadouts that are appropriate for whatever task I'm heading out for. This makes it easier to digest when the inevitable happens. It's not the permadeath that keeps people in the woods, it's the starting over from scratch that makes it easy to walk way after a death with a 8 day old character.

It sucks having to explain that over and over, doesn't it? This is what happens when casuals beta test a game.

I'm with this guy. Unless you've survived on 30+ populated servers for 60 days it's not that big of a deal. If it wasn't for game killing glitches, I would have zero deaths in this game. I just stick to low pop servers and kill zeds for fun. I've never been killed by another player in low pop servers, not even close.

I usually play on low pop servers to avoid hackers and so I can loot in peace. Well, I finally decided to jump on a high pop server just to do some people watching and maybe score some rare goods off a camp. I'm heading towards Cherno but taking care to walk along the outskirts and scout around. Mind you, I'm unarmed and I left all my good equipment on my home server in a tent. I see this dude running around the field towards me. I think "Oh shit, can he see me?" Sure enough he's coming right at me, so I run around like a mad man trying to aggro zeds hoping that I can distract him and run to a hiding place. Now it's obvious that I have no weapon or I would have tried to kill the zeds I've aggro'd. Well this dude was so hard up on PvP that he spent his whole ammo supply trying to hit a zig-zaging, defenseless target while being swarmed by zeds that are actually trying to kill him. I'm screaming in my headset "Bro, stop chasing me, you have a swarm of zeds on you, wtf are you doing!?" He continues to take pot shots at me while being chased by zombies. I swear I could hear the Benny Hill music playing in the background as I run around houses and trees with this asshole in tow all while zeds are chasing him lol.. He finally runs out of ammo and realizes he's fucked and starts to focus on the zeds. I call him a faggot and dart off into the woods.*spoiler alert, he dies* and I bandage myself up and head on my way. Fuck that dude and anyone else who PvPs over all else.

Agreed, people still want this game to be "Walking Dead" where the zeds are the real threat. Unfortunately, it's not like that and people are the real threat. I'm not leaving anything around that someone else could use, even if that means purposefully destroying or "losing" them. I play lone wolf and I shoot on sight, no questions asked. Don't care if you shout friendly or not. I steal and destroy vehicles I can't use and I loot then run over tents in camps. Deal with it.

If I had a dollar for every time a glitch took my gear I'd have 8 dollars. Everything from switching backpacks to disconnecting while inside a vehicle and spawning in the seated position. I've made just about every "guess I won't do that again" mistake in the book lol.

My first pistol was a revolver. My first real gun was a Bizon I found at a crash site. I later found out how rare it was and stored it in a tent. I'm sure you can guess what happened to it.

When looting at the NW Airfield, I noticed a huge bonfire in the distance. Is this a glitch or is this a hack? I mean this is one HUGE bonfire! It looks like a nuke went off in the distance. I haven't investigated cuz my survivor is kitted out and I don't want to run into unnecessary trouble. Has anyone else seen this in their server?

Thanks for the input. There was a crashed chopper nearby, but I don't think it was hacked because it spawned zeds and loot.

Yeah, I miss it too. It does create a more tense atmosphere when my screen starts greying out and I have no idea exactly how much blood I have left. I just want to know how many zeds I've headshotted though.
