Haven't seen any rain either. I guess we're in the dry season.

I'm between neutral (survivor) and neutral good (hero) as I prefer to help out, share stories and supplies, or watch from afar instead of jumping into action and shooting everyone I see. I like to leave a good impression when leaving a survivor I just met so it be shared to others also. Of course it's never a certainty, but it's still a small ray of hope in the harsh land out there, that is the apocalypse. If I can add something, is that my third trait would be a fisherman. B) No melee on my back, but a fishing rod.

You can't eat raw meat. You need to cook it first. Either use a gas stove or create a camp fire, add the cooking tri-pod and place the meat in a cooking pot, then watch out so it doesn't burn! :thumbsup:

Pistol only character on a private server. Suppressors are pristine and worn. Pretty happy to see pistol animations for the menu finally made it! :thumbsup:

Hands up!

Can't handle alpha, go away. No one is forcing you to play.

:thumbsup: P.S.: I'm having a tough time finding flare gun ammo more than anything else... <_< lol

Loot tables are bound to change. They have changed numerous times since I started playing back in December 2013. I can't think of how many times I checked every single "possible" item spawn points to adapt to what had changed, heck back then half of the buildings you know today didn't even spawn anything. Welcome to the end of the world, a virtual world in perpetual change do to being created by it's "gods". ;)

Can't unbreak what isn't broken to begin with... Nothing is "game breaking" until the game is actually finished. Everything is bound to change. It's sad that you're not getting satisfaction for what you pay, your rented server, granted, but it was your choice to begin with to rent something that's part of an unfinished product who can be prone to interruptions of service at any time do to bugs and glitches. Something to always keep in mind in my opinion.

Very nice first vid. I liked it a lot. :thumbsup: Keep it up man! Off to a good start! BTW, powdered milk is just about the same as the rice bag, so it's the best caloric wise in the game. Just need to drink a bit after as it takes away some hydration, just like the rice. Sharing is caring! :beans:

The loot tables are a work in progress. It's bound to change. Since everyone loves to go "Mel Gibson"/Lethal Weapon style with the AK and spray and pray, it has a big impact on the community, but let's not forget it's not the only item missing from the loot tables. Last year when the crossbow was introduced, around experimental 0.44, it had a quiver to quickly reload bolts by pressing "r". A few months after that, they somehow removed them from the loot tables. For Christmas 2014, we had a patch that added Christmas trees and other things, but the first time that patch went live on experimental, we had a 2 days of crazy loot where every item on the loot list was spawning everywhere. It was the first time we could actually see the MP5 rail grip, and have the .45 acp suppressor attach to it too. During this period, the quiver for the crossbow was back. After those 2 days, we had an "hotfix" for experimental and the loot tables were back to normal, the quiver disappeared with it... My point is, we're bound to see items appear and disappear from the loot tables as the create the game. Pretty much like when everyone lost their attachments do to them being renamed.

You're right. I should have been more careful posting that many. Won't happen again.

Welcome man! B) Great start! That was some brilliant footage you got there! I laughed pretty hard watching that, and those ironsight mosin shots :o , fantastic!! :thumbsup: Awesome!

I always put spoilers for posting screenshots on other threads, but this is the screenshot thread... :huh: I don't get it. People won't come here on their cell phones or with limited bandwidth to check screenshots or post them. I've (we've) never used spoilers here so I assumed it was still the same rules as before. Totally sorry if I did something wrong, but my screenshots posted via Tinypics are between 200 and 300 KB in file sizes while some here post using other services making their shots full file size of 3MB+. I'm just a bit confused now as of why only my post was edited and required to use spoiler now. :|

New Experimental character. Liking this one a lot. Gonna have fun until a new experimental build comes and he gets wiped. I don't mind at all as at least half of my time in the game is on experimental.

Today we're supposed to get an experimental build update, so it's gonna be bye bye character. This is what I had before the wipe. Man I'm glad the idle animations are back in 0.55, but I'd love to be able to see the character hold a pistol in his hands and do motions too like when you have nothing, a melee or a "primary" weapon (ie: shotgun, assault rifle, carbine, etc.) If I had played with a friend during the current build, I would have probably gave him the mosin and only rolled with suppressed pistols taking care of the infected. Can't get enough of that right now.

I have to admit that the persistence in 0.55 exp seems a lot better. I haven't had any troubles finding anything, even days after the servers were open. And only 1 time did I encountered loot explosion, and it was pretty isolated to a small building, having the surroundings spawn items normally. Looking pretty good and getting better every day! :thumbsup:

Never compare life to video games, ever. Learn to cope with game mechanics. It's hard for me to understand your frustration as I can't relate to your experience, but try again and eventually you'll get the hang of it. Why didn't you find food? There's way too much everywhere right now, and so many ways to find, grow or hunt for food that it's hard to believe players still struggle with this. Were you playing on a persistence enabled server? They have a bad habit of not respawning items right now so I would suggest either avoiding them for now until persistence gets polished.

To get Whitelisted you need your GUID, not your Steam name. If you have any problems after that, I'm sure they'll try their to help you. There's plenty of time before the event so if you really want to attend I'd say go for it and get whitelisted! :thumbsup: Type "#beclient GUID" into the chat box when playing.

Yes!! B) This time I'll make sure to have all the necessary to do the archery contest!! :thumbsup: Looking forward to this! Sitting around the fire playing guitar while drinking some cold Kvass! Edit: With current 0.55 loot spawns, finding rope is just a dice roll, so I'm not sure it's gonna be happening... :|

Or the U.N./-ZaP- servers. They are in 1PP and they are rather popular. (Full most of the time.) That's my guess.

Pretty intense encounter! :thumbsup:

1 word. Wow!! Can't wait! Some of them like the small gas canister and camera I'm looking forward to a lot!! :thumbsup: Thank you very much for this little treat!

Omedetou gozaimasu Falcon-san!! (Congrats!) A well deserved award for all the efforts put into his work! :thumbsup:
