Let's send a strong message to the dev's about this subject. Maybe i'm the only one but if pooping is added to this game i'm uninstalling. Voice your self!

I remember Pre-Alpha Dean released a video of him and others displaying simple mechanics of the game. Looting cars and buildings, looking under things, equipping helmets and jumping over a pile of trash. What ever happened to this? Does anyone else remember this video? Points to whom ever can find it!

ahhh yes. thank you! Guess i was mistaken I think the word I might have been looking for was hopping (straight up and down)...kind of like a bunny does. lol

Basically! Just as you can jump in real life. Can't believe i can't find this video on youtube. Dean was showing off people jumping over piles of trash. Maybe It was all a dream but i could have swore he even exclaimed "Yes, you will be able to jump in the standalone." It was a video of him and maybe 4 other people sitting in the street wearing motorcycle helmets. It started off by showing the head movements and some early gestures. Then they went to show the looting of vehicles and Dean fixed his camera on a couple of people who jumped or more-so leaped over a pile of trash that was sitting in the street.

That's the thing. In the video I watched it actually looked really smooth. The animation had the character lift off the ground, do a nice parabolic movement over the pile, lift his legs up to his knees as you would while jumping, extend them as he lands, then finally land. I was really impressed with the smoothness of the animation.

I think you're confused about what I mean by jumping. I'm not sure how else to explain it other than using the word jumping again...

It's very serious. It's something the devs are planning on implementing Most stupid topic for the most stupid "feature"

I like .48 a lot. I'm excited to start some basic base building. I like being able to finally keep loot. What do you guys think about this? Also, seems like i found a pretty important bug that could hamper things. Have other people encountered this? I want to know so i can understand if it was an isolated incident or not (this needs discussion please) I'm going to test it again later but if it happens again ill have to wait until its fixed before i can play more... I got killed by an invisible zombie as i was looting a small town. I heard zombie noises around me and didnt think anything of it until i actually started to get hit. Couldn't see anything on my screen and when i swung at the air there was no impact animation and me being hit continued.

Thank you. I also submitted a bug report on it. I'm not sure if i was in Gvodzno but i very well may have been.

First i was outside and started to get hit. I ran into a building and was on the first floor where i tried to attack it but no impact animations were seen and the attacking continued.

Found a bug where there are invisible zombies. Was looting a small town and started to get hit by zombies that were not showing up on my screen

Yup, just got killed by an invisible zombie. ill put this in the bug tracker as well but wanted you warn you all of the new skills zombies appear to have... Remember that bug where we would hear zombie noises and nothing was around? Was happening to me today on a low pop server while i was looting a small town. Thought nothing of it until i got hit and started bleeding. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=299995054 edit: not sure how to post a picture directly from my steam screen shots.

It's probably your CPU. How many cores does it have?

By-golly I think he's on to something here.

I think there should be zombies. I think zombies would make a huge improvement to this game. Think about if you were looting the air field and a bunch of zombies started attacking you and you almost die from that. They could call it DayZ Zombie edition

I hope a ladder kills you

Yeah, same reason i'm not playing SA either right now. It's pretty pointless. There's a game just like this right now that's a lot better and it's called battlefield 4. I wouldn't hold my breath on more infected coming any time soon. My best guess is (hopefully) by the end of the year. I would recommend trying Breaking Point. The zombies are slow and very dumb but they serve the purpose for what you just stated. You can't just sprint into town and run and grab. Takes a little bit of strategy and you don't want to stay in one spot too long as people will see the zombie hordes around you.

Not to trust indie games anymore XD

Hopefully this is one of the things that will be fixed very shortly. I've tested this many times. Shots from 100m+ seem to always have different times to impact. On a 40/40 server i've noticed the bullet takeing as long as 2.5-3 seconds before reaching the target only 100m away

Mostly because its a game imo.

or a lead weight..... or we just get an auto run toggle so i can stop breaking my keyboard

I agree, with the op, I really wish there was a way to be able to tell if someone was a hero or a bandit from the way they looked. The way the mod did it was perfect. I thought it made the game much more interesting, and in my opinion, is really the only solution to getting rid of the KoS mentality. But it apparently "ruins immersion" because it isn't realistic that bandits would have a scarf around their head. But as others have said neither is running non-stop across the map or never needing to sleep. Sometimes you need to add mechanics to the game because it makes it more fun and disregard a small portion of realism.

Haven't been around lately, waiting for more patches, so i gave it a 2 or 3 month break. Expecting to find working zombies and more guns I was severely disappointed. Doesn't seem like there has been any progress at all actually. Server pops seem low and the community is turning into hostile teenage girls. If anyone has played other games (first one that comes to mind for me is SMNC) that have been abandoned by the devs it seems as though this game is already going in the same direction. Before i get the "its alpherrrr" i understand. Just looking for some insight.

Thanks! ill be sure to stay tuned into this. Like i said the zombies are my main concern and all i really care about. I've read that "challenge and saga of zombie pathfinding" article before and it does give me some hope at the least.
