The fireplace starter kits is fucking ridiculous. Wasn't the first iteration going to require a stone as well? So I'm standing in the woods with shit all around me and I can't make a fire. I can't even make kindle without a frikkin axe. The fire system is a joke. It's been ill thought out and badly implemented. Here's what they should do; 1 - When in the woods, or by brush or anywhere else that I can grab sticks from, give me the menu option to grab sticks (or tampons - brilliant for starting fires) 2 - With my new bundle of kindle, if it's wet make it have to dry out which starts as soon as it's either under cover (dropped in a house) or in my backpack. In the game code, all kindle = wet if rain = 1 unless kindlecovered = 1. It doesn't need to be over complicated because it's not a big deal. 3 - With my dry kindle I can now make a "fireplace" 4 - add log and hey presto!

I went from spawn to freezing in a matter of minutes and even fully clothed, I still get freezing. Standing by a fire I get I am warming up until I'm no longer cold then I get no messages at all. I never get too hot, always too cold no matter what I wear and it's really quick too.

LOL you found more than I did. A pair of boots (I suppose these are standard at heli crashes) and a ... wait for it...... ooooh the suspense...... is it killing you yet?...... a....... TACTICAL SHIRT!!!! WOOOT! I tore that fucker up good too.

I do.

Then you spend a few hours on the game and the next day you spend a few more. The point of the game is survival, not finding guns and of course it depends on luck - just like in real life or do you think you should just be handed a gun? How is the design wrong and what's your fix for it? When you start playing this as a survival game instead of a pvp fest you'll enjoy it more, or leave. I don't expect you to take down a heavily armed clan at all with any gun, especially not a blaze or shotgun lol.

Combat logging merely shows what a poor gamer you are and is best avoided.

I got that kind of thing with my PU scope on my SKS. Some bug made it so I was looking through my hands, not the scope when I raised it. I think it might have something to do with if you have a rifle on your back and one in your hand but not sure.

My friend and I also came back after several months break and had the same issue last night. The problem now is that freezing to death is the real issue. With no way to make a fire other than using an axe, which of course there are none, means you have no way to warm up. Because there's no loot, you don't find any clothes. As soon as you spawn in, run inland and hope you make the next town. Most of the times you'll start finding loot as soon as you leave the coast. Alternatively, if you're a pussy, go find a recently restarted server and join that :P

It's removed afaik so they were using a cheat. Incidentally, my friend logged in in one of those raised houses and fell through the floor. He got out by punching the walls.

Didn't see him. We just left the NW airfield, had found some decent(ish) gear but I was freezing to death (In my boonie, balaclava, gloves, tkso jacket, assault vest...) and my screen was getting greyer and greyer. We ran at least 500m and I made a fire between some bushes and lit it. Next thing my mate is dead and I can hear thwip, thwip, lol so I started running and zigzagging then dead. We got in again last night where I experienced the true shit that is the melee system in the game. I mean my fists and pitchfork are going through it's head but somehow I miss. I found the baseball bat and cattleprod hit a lot easier but are weak. I assume it's going to be a lot easier when they fix it because anymore than about 1 zed on you and things become hard. With 10 on you.... Also, has the rate of food consumption been increased? I seem to get hungrier quicker but we did see a pig on our 6th lives yesterday so animals are still in the game. Not that we had anything to gut it with since the coast, at every spawn point, was picked clean and our luck was shit too. I wanted to head inland asap but trying to meet up one of us would get hit by a zed (usually by getting stuck on something or trying to hit them). We almost made it on our last attempt, then my mate fell over from hunger, so the zed that saw us from a mile away caught us up and I punched the air repeatedly around its face whilst it started me bleeding, no bandages but I did find some yummy red berries to eat as I was dying so it didn't end all bad ;)

I like the concept, I understand that we're testing it but wearing a hat, baloclava, gloves, jacket and backback and sprinting for 15 minutes and I'm still freezing is "lolz" Unless the outside temperature is extreme, as in freezing cold or boiling hot, you are neither going to go hypo or hyper - thermic. So unless Cherno is going to experience -20 celsius and +50 Celsius these two conditions shouldn't even be in the game.

I got back into country last night with my friend, it's been months since I seriously played and was just aiming through a PU scope at various static objects in various stances and it seems pretty crap to me. At least reading this thread I know why my hold breath wasn't working, because it isn't working lol. When we both got shot later, I didn't hear any gun shots, just bullets hitting around me as if they were shot from a silenced rifle.

Oh dear..... Yes I already knew the answer which you didn't as you said... "There need to be limitations on the military aspect, we are supposed to survive, not to thrive." Ghillie suits were not military at all, are used more by hunters than army personnel which is why I asked if you knew anything about them. Now that you know, you can see why you statement above is flawed.

Do you know when Ghillie suits were first invented and what they were used for?

LOL :)

Don't make one if you don't need one?

Three Valleys - Unless they've fucked it up in the last 6 months.

Nope. This just paves the way for "500+ cars and Barracks" servers, just what ruined the mod in fact.

My point being that the information is no longer valid as it's so dated. Your point is what, precisely?

This is 5 months out of date.

Seasons are a great idea, imagine if they had an engine that could do that....

and dynamic wind speeds

LOL this! Everything about the way you feel should be reported in the Inv screen, you shouldn't have to wait for a message to show in game.

Nobody is talking about making the game as realistic as possible. Maybe you came here from another thread?
