  1. There is defenitely some problems with loot in some servers. I was in that town to the west of NWAF and all I found within ALL the single buildings, houses and shelters was a potatoe and a tomatoe (food). Before that I was in a server that literally had nothing in the town, but in a town before there were LOTS and LOTS of things in each building. I guess it's now more luck dependant. Since most of experimentals are empty I don't know what would happen on a full server where people loots constantly, however I did notice some problems. You lose your energy and hydratation faster than your stuffed status. There is no way unless you're incredibly lucky to find everything since the minute 0 to be fully energized and hydrated without getting into very red stuffed. I also highly doubt that you could be hungry and stuffed at the same time (unless you of course drank a lot) but this was not my case. I ate everything I could find, reached dark green energized and hydrated, while dark red stuffed and after running to a town I was once again hungry, thirsty and stuffed. Maybe there should be some tweaks regarding this, you should bring out a new sort of energizing system... there's no way you can get hungry 20 mins after eating two cans of something, even if you spent those 20 minutes fully sprinting towards a town. I finally died after surviving a lot of sickness. Had to eat raw meat because I did not find anything at all, and forget about finding charcoal tabs, you must be very very lucky with the current loot spawn rates, reminded me of the Mod's antibiotics. Overall I see great potential, but it shouldn't be that restrictive and specific to survive. It went from super easy to super hard, and I really hope they keep on with this system but only tweak it a bit to make a half term or something.
  2. I skipped the 6-7 pages discussion. Surviving is not that hard, but you tend to ragequit when you die out of nowhere when going upstairs or over something after being hours trying to find that goddamn can of food :(
  3. Insta died out of nowhere while sprinting in berezino, I was on the school area, went upside a 10 cm tall pipe and when I passed over it I got spammed with broken legs and died. :( Otherwise feels great.

    first iteration of central economy

    I have this very rare SVD. Selling it for 50$. I am more than sure that this will become a thing. Of course with it's many risks.
  5. Weekly wipes. Enough said. Good bye my beloved fully moded M4 from previous patches :(

    No more Towns

    You know I'm all in for the developers but we're the customers after all too.

    No more Towns

    God.. I really do hope the devs read this thing, there are some suggestions which are pure gold. Some extra clean landscape along the north and the west would be awesome, put more unique structures, such nuclear powerplants, bunkers, circuses, small shopping centres & sewers. I really love the idea of removing the ocean and instead making it a river with a new landmass with place for more stuff, this way it would be incredibly unique. Imagine using the sewers to go in between the river, having unique towns textures for each town..

    Stable - 0.47 Discussion

    I downloaded experimental version a few hours before the patch came in and I thought I would have to redownload for Stable... Good thing I didn't!! :)
  10. That's how it's meant to be.

    Lumberjacks: confirmed?

    If a tree falls in the middle of the forest and there's nobody near, does it make any noise?

    Anyone else get the M4 bug?

    Happens with every weapon too in addition to the last reply.

    "My leg hurts... You are dead!"

    I've had this bug three times already and I really believe it has to do with desync. All of the times it happened I was pressing my W key in a tall building however there was a wall in the way and I "could" not fall down. The desync might have the client to ignore that wall and in consequence send to the server that you felt to death while you never fell down in the first place. Happened on ATC tower, a barn and one of the tall buildings in Balota. Infact on the last one I sniped a sniper that was on the top of the AT tower (awful sniper) from the buildings in balota, I remember I had to reload ammo, I reloaded and when I aimed I walked forward, I got him down and went back into to normal sight mode and seconds later it showed "YOU ARE DEAD" and "My leg hurts" x5. When my friend went to get my body at the top of the building (Believing that the sniper managed to shoot me before I did) he found that my body was in fact at the bottom of the street, and for my client I was always at the top of the building.

    how to get started

    I'd buy the second one. Multiple times. And gift it among my friends. For reasons. And on a serious note, are the military tents fixed on exp?
  15. Found one in green mountain inside of the antenna. Sounds incredibly suspicious.

    Overall opinions on the SA so far?

    You claim you want more "awesome" guns but don't support the customization on them which is basically the hearth to any weapon. This is not COD, BF or any of your regular looking and repetitive favourite shooters game, nor it is meant to be a DM fest. Go back to the mods' mods where you can DM all you want, spawn fully geared and are able to pay for more gears and 1000 vehicles. Yep, welcome to dayz, where the enviroment f**ks you in the back and everything is completely unfair. All of the times. You might have heard something similar about real life, unless you don't go out too often. You should read and investigate a bit more on the mod's origins and what it was supposed to be. SA is on the right track to those standards. 10/10 perfect troll.

    Can someone confirm this for me/us?

    You are partially correct, the devs stated that a bug where player remains did not receive shock or blood damage was fixed. I believe shock damage is given by melee and blood damage is well, bleeding out.
  18. I loved each and every single one of your weapon statics post. And I just learned that, much appreciated, I wont look like an idiot shooting at the ground infront of me while prone anymore!

    Passworded servers.

    There are only two legal passwored servers and those are the development ones (which usually don't even have any public version) so no, I don't know how they do it but I am sure they must be public by ToS

    Tips for finding can opener?

    They are everywhere as generic I think, I've seen them in apartments, houses, military ... I always pick them up even if I already have one, I heard they are cursed. The very first few days they were incredibly rare (especially because there were far lesser servers and everything was looted) and ever since then I always pick them up.

    Bleeding

    Even if fully geared with protective vests you will bleed most of the times by any zombie hit, this was a recent addition as it did not happen in early patches, where you were almost invincible from zombie hits. I was stalking a player earlier and zombies kept spawning out of nowhere, hit me once and bleeding, had to stop, kill the zombie, bandage to keep going on, only to have to do it again a few minutes later from the same situation; i'd rather see it toned down a bit, or increase clothes damage vs protectiveness since it doesn't have much sense to start bleeding without having a scratch in your clothes :P
  22. Servers restart mostly at 18 server time, so if you get on a server at 17 ish you will most likely not find anything at all; I've joined a server just after restart, walked from kras to NEAF and found myself a pristine LRS in the hangar, bailed off to the forests immediatelly after that :D Also there seems to be a lot of people running from NEAF to NWAF so anything relevant in that route is probably looted, I was on a 10 pop server and came across two different guys in the same town half way to NWAF, a bit to the south east of the devil's castle... the funny thing is that I was thinking "What if I meet someone right here, what would be the chances?!?" Turns out the shadow I saw wasn't mine's and I got away unseen :D

    The Sun

    I'm a bit worried more about the glance and the fact that it makes the game incredibly dark even when you're not looking at it at all or there are clouds covering it.

    Found shutter island!

    I wonder if the island 30km to the south west still exists.

    Instadeath! +Bugtracker problems...

    I have randomly died out of nowhere two times now and I associate it with server-client communication lag; I was at the NWAF ATC tower, I ran straight to the wall and a few seconds later I died out of nowhere with a message saying that my legs were broken (If someone had killed me, a shoot in my legs shouldn't have taken me down instantly - nor a headshoot should have triggered broken legs), I assume this happened because the server or whatever did not register the wall and thought I fell off the tower, but I didn't - my ping was pretty high too, around 350. Similar situation happened on a barn, I just was on the top floors and got down with the stairs and out of the barn - died instantly out of nowhere: the server might have assumed I had felt from the barn in the interval I went down using the stairs probably due the teleporting/server lag/desync not recording the part where I used the stairs to get out.
