Once again' date=' stop basing your development advice on what you alone are experiencing. Just because it's working for you doesn't mean it's working for everyone. I've been trying to join ANY server for about an hour and am just stuck at waiting for server response. [/quote'] I understand where you are coming from, I have the same issue a lot of the time, but not all the time. I just wish (and I think some other people wish the same) that people would stop asking such stupid questions and use the "search" function. It's there for a reason and there have already been several such posts about the "Waiting for server response" problem. I concur, but this is a separate issue. I'm just tired of people saying "Nah, that doesn't happen to me so don't worry about it." The goal of any alpha test is to make the game playable the largest segment of the community possible, not to custom tailor it to any particular individual. We need to stop discounting other people's complaints and bug reports simply because we are not experiencing those bugs ourselves.

A global ban list for anyone other than confirmed, verified, positive hackers is a really stupid and piss poor idea, especially in an alpha so fucked up and buggy that you could be "hacking" and not even know it.

Just because you don't experience an issue doesn't mean it's not so... That's what the forums/repoting issues is about man, so quit arguing with me plx. You are just detracting from the issue to post your non-sense opinion...aka pointless man. Me and 20+ people on my gaming clan have been experiencing these "issues" across multiple servers. I'll post a video if I could log into a server today (can't get into a single server yet) :P +1. I play with a group of five other people, we ALL experience this issue. This bug turns any attempt to hide in a building into a fucking death sentence. I've seen zombies run through a wall, across a room, out the other wall, then start trying to attack me though the wall. Don't start trying to call bullshit on someone for having a bug or saying "it must be your connection blah blah" just because you haven't played enough to experience said bug, this is an alpha.

Confirming. Same terrible, game ruining issue.

My brother and I work as a two man bandit team with him on a CZ550 and me on an M16A4. We started off at the airfield this morning where we saved after trying to find some decent loot last night. We're just starting to figure the game out, so we figured we'd work our way all the way down south to Chernagorsk with the expressed purpose of people-hunting, then moved on to Elektro to continue the spree. I don't remember all the kills, but here are some I do remember: Murder #1: While on the outskirts of Cherno we were set up at one of our spots far from the town watching for activity in the city. I hear a gunshot from behind us, so I go up to investigate. I notice two bodies in a radio tower, but see no one around. Finally I see a guy with a Makarov at the base of the tower trying to get on the ladder. I pop him once in the melon with the M16 and that was that, had nothing of use but a can of beans. Murder #2: When I arrived back at the spot where my brother was waiting after killing the tower climber, he spotted a survivor along the road in Cherno. He popped him in the chest with his 550 and he went down, but did not die and I could not get a visual. He fires one round from his CZ at us and it smacks a tree directly in between us. I still could not see him, so I just opened up on the bush he was behind with about 10 rounds from the M16. "Such and such was killed". He tells the server where we're at and says that we "have nice loot", so we change positions. Don't recall what he had on him, but it wasn't much. Bandit #1: On our way to find a new position my brother spotted a bandit standing under a tree. He went prone and started drawing a bead on me across a field, but didn't notice my brother (nor did I notice him). All I heard on vent was "left!" and by the time I turned to look my brother corked the guy and he was down. After 3 kills we figured the location was tapped and moved to Elektro. Guy had a Winchester and nothing of use. Murder #3: At Elektro we set up and my brother began overwatch of the city with me on binocs. Before I even noticed, my brother saw a guy climbing the hill and nailed him and he was DRT. Got on chat and was pissed off, had a CZ with no ammo but a bunch of miscellaneous loot and gear, including 5 bloodbags. Bandit #2: Was running through an open field in Elektro. My brother took a shot at him and hit him, hurting him badly, but he was still up and began to fire back. His firing attracted a horde and while he was distracted I lit him up with the M16. We waited for ages at Elektro for another victim, but no one came so we once again started trekking back to Cherno. Had a magazine for my brother's PDW, but that's it. Murder #4 bandit #3: As we were entering Cherno from Elektro we were keeping a close eye on the open field outside of the city just in case any stragglers were running through. Sure enough, we spotted two guys running East together. My brother hit one while on the run with the CZ. He did not die, but he must have been bleeding profusely because he immediately began to bandage. They were at 350m, so while my brother got ready to fire again I just started taking aimed shots at both of the guys. One died immediately, one fell to the ground and bled to death while we waited for him to get back up. One guy had nothing of interest, one had a lot of loot including map, compass, etc, but we already had that stuff. Bandit #4 and #5: This guy's name was Roberto, I remember because I had to kill him twice. I was up on a mountain between Elektro and Cherno guarding my brother's corpse after he was killed by a glitch (:-/) and realized we were running low on food. I see a lamb on the railroad tracks below the mountain, so I figure I'll go kill it and take the meat to pass the time while my brother is making his way back to the mountain. As I go down the hill I hear rifle fire and immediately move to where I can see. I look down and see a bandit killing zombies just because and approaching a shed that is by itself and closed. I take aim from my location and pop him once in the chest. He immediately begins to bandage, but now he has a bunch of pissed off zombies chasing him so breaks out running. He bled to death trying to hide near the shed. This guy had some GOOD loot. Had an AK, and MP5SD with 5 mags, and a 1911 with I think 8 mags. I grabbed the 1911 mags since I was running low and his MP5SD and mags. I go back up the hill and my brother arrives. We begin to make our way back down to his corpse so he can grab the 1911 and some of my mags which I have way too many of and we spot Roberto running away from his body after evidently looting it. My brother shoots him while he's on the run with the CZ and he stops. I fire at him again and he drops behind a bush where I assume he's dead or disconnected. I cautiously approach the area and see no corpse, but also see no disconnect. Puzzled, I ask my brother if he seems him from his vantage point on the mountain. He said "He probably disconnected". Right as he finishes saying that three AK rounds zip by me but miss. I look over and he's at extreme close range, I assume he only missed from blood loss shakes. I pop him and he falls down again, but still does not die. I fire at the area he dropped into and he finally dies. Thanks for the loot, Roberto. Lessons learned: It's not worth it to go into any big coastal city for any reason, people are hunting you for fun. We don't even care if we get your gear. Don't shoot at zombies with rifles if you can avoid it, and don't shoot at them for no particular reason if you're near the coast. We will hear you and we will find you. They're not dead until the server says they're dead. Rushing in assuming almost got my ass killed. Have a buddy, even if you're a bandit. You won't survive a firefight with two guys that have both close and long range capability.
