  1. Weeellll ... I managed to find out pretty fast that rags require a knife now. So much for perceptiveness. Yay. But, after playing for 4h calm hours now in which I hiked inland from Svetlo to the abandoned Stary Yar military base, NW Airfield, and from there via Bashnia and Veresnik to Vybor on what seems to be a not very much looted Server, I remarked the following: - Not ONE single Zombie in 4 hours while crossing half the map??? Where the heck are they? Union Meeting at Berezino? - Quite remarkable amount of weapons around... actually more than I can carry. Nice - For whatever I do, I am unable to attach MP5 Rail Handguard ra to my MP5K? I cannot even detach the original one. While the muzzle and the shoulder-piece work fine, this one won`t do... anyone else on These probs or did they implement the regular MP 5 yet and I am simply numb? - Not ONE truck. I know they are rare, but after passing about 20 spawnpoints without seeing one, I find that VERY rare :) - Lots of levitating haybales and some strange gaps and levitations on the railroads... Well... let`s see where this leads :)

    That`s exactly where Czernarus Wastebin-Central wanted them to be. Any complaint goes to your local waist-disposal-Manager.:)

    Where is all the good stuff at?

    I like it more the way it is now, I have to admit when not every Bozo holds a mosin and ammo after 5 minutes. Now we get to a feeling befitting to the general atmosphere of the game setting. Only thing I miss now is the z hordes...:)

    What is Prion disease?

    This sums up the effect of prion disease very nicely:

    "Hunting"

    Sat around a fire on ground level in a house yesterday and it warmed me. Went closer: my face was melting. Went closer: I was burning. Ouch. Btw. hunting: Killed a cow for the meat. Am I right about that it is not possible to craft a backpack from cowhide as of yet? And ... how long will raw meat in your backpack stay edible?
  12. I just experienced that after skinning a deer and trying to apply rope to the deer pelt, nothing happens. When dragged over within the inventory, the rope simply turns red while only switches places with the pelt if one is outside. There is no action menu coming up, offering to craft the leather courier bag. Both rope and pelt are in pristine condition.

    My First AKM!

    As it comes to sticking to what one is used to, I am a certified instructor on both the HK G3A3 and the HK G36 assault rifles. I also used both the AK and the M4 out of interest. I liked the AK, while the M4 and the HK G36 have somewhat of a toygun-feeling when you where used to 7.62 in the first place. Nevertheless, they are somewhat luxurious when it comes to attaching optics, weight and ability to spread tons of rounds which you carry until then for their low weight. Anyhow, bottom line for me is, when Zs would arise, I will be the one with the G3. I like the punch and accuracy of the 7.62x51mm on ranges up to 400m with the ironsights as well as up to 600m with the scopes. (with Zs you wont have any combat situations on more that that and they don't shoot back ;), Also this thing is quite reliable, except for in heavy mud surroundings where you spend a shitload of time with clean and oil. I admit that thing is heavy as shit, best only for right handed users and the (only) 20 round mags are to be connected with tape (if you go for that at all for you loose accuracy with the slight tilt they give you). But still, I fell in love with that baby the moment I had the first 20 rounds out and it kept that way.

    Mountain Pack vs. Hunting Pack

    1. There is no looking back over your shoulder in 1st person with a mountain-pack. 2. You do not look like a creeping mountain when moving prone.
  16. Now thats the evermost creative suicide, I have heard of ... so far ;)

    Magazine refilling delay

    I like the approach. The more realism in eq-handling, the better for me!

    Persistent Storage Ideas?

    I definetely go for the grave. A hidden supply with a simple cross on it. All you need is: - sticks - a shovel.

    Rant Thread?

    DEFEATED BY THE BUSH (or "why you should sort your stuff in the inventory"): Leisurely forest-walk on an empty server near NOVY SOBOR at lunchtime. First a little useless pack-away and reordering the medkit, in the bushes, squatting down, stuff on the floor. Short look from the inventory for a panoramic view ... everything clean. Then aim the MedKit with the grey point and press "F" to pick it up. Clicked instead more on the branch. Hey?! Why is my AV gesturing? "YOU GATHERED SOME BERRIES AND PUT THEM IN YOUR MOUTH"! Ah. Well I know now what bush bears berries. Hurrah. Collect stuff and more. "You have a funny taste in your mouth". oO... ... a while later Chernarus seems incredible grey and dull ...oO "YOU FEEL NAUSEOUS". POISONED! CRAP!. The chances are bad, as far as I know. Running for NOVY SOBOR, finding a discreet shed with recognition-value and drop everything useful in the backpack. Pack and weapon go to the floor. Armed with trousers and an axe off to find charcoal tabs. Just behind the shed - punking. I see... the first zombie in the blurry. I slay him. The second one approaches... and I pass out. 5 seconds later: "You are dead". Hrmpf. New spawn, new luck. West of Electro. Sprinting for 13 minutes, having a pumppenstop and two cans of tuna from a house next to the pump (wow - two cans in a room). I'm just one kilometre south of NOVY SOBOR. Shed, I'm coming... Slight twitches form in my smile as the message appears: "No. response from server since...seconds". In red. With chain. A reset... AHHHHRG! CURSE WORDS!. Result: Bush 1 - Calixus 0.

    "RESET WARNING"

    Let me put it this way: if you decide to - "bitch around" in the wrong place instead of forwarding helpfull information to proper places, - react like a pansy everytime someone states obvious facts that do not suit into your little plan of how the world should be, - hope that you will seriously find other players that forward your "14-year-old-stomp-my-little-feet-on-the-ground-in-hope-for-a-glorious-player-outcry"-attitude, thats your thing. But in this case you are nothing but a strange, sad little man and you have my pity.
