    Tips for finding can opener?

    Axe's, Screwdrivers, Knives, Bayonets can all open can's, for this reason, I feel that rice, cereal and easy open tuna is king.

    My thoughts on the log out timer (30 sec)

    Adding a system that increases the logout timer, I'm not necessarily against, my primary concern would be the stress on the server and how it affects that in terms of the bullet detection system. We have a system that functions decently if you where to propose an increase of 30 seconds, to make the timer a minute total, I would be okay with that, after that I feel your pushing it. unless you say something like a person just logged into the server in the last ten minutes so they have an additional logout timer. In psudo-response to another post, when I last logged out I was in an area where there was recent gun fire , none directed at me, but I stopped and consumed some food then drank some water from bottles before logging to ensure that there was nothing unsavoury in my area. I logged in a medium risk zone and took the required precautions.

    particular server times

    How I read it; I'm making a new topic so Piss off you dick's and I didn't use search cos I want to start ANOTHER flame war, so I paid out my dad's money and got myself a server and trying to make it spawn the loot I want cos I'm not skilled enough to loot with the general population. so what time so I set my server to in order to make the good stuff spawn. But to answer no there is no specific time to set the server to the loot spawns randomly every time, so have fun farming and thank you for delivering M4's to the general population when you get gunned down in under 3 minuites of reaching electro, I'm sure the people there really appreciate the gun delivery service your providing.

    Was Excited For The Patch..

    I'm sure they don't want to deal with having to take the servers down constantly to update the game plus never know whats bugged.... posted while I was writing... damn you Jack...

    Woolcoats all over the place?

    Ya happens every time they implement new items and they want them tested extensively, they will dial it back once they are happy they function as intended.

    Animals and new patch!

    Might be like the Ruger reload animations, they where put in well before the gun actually made it to experimental (today) so take it as a sign of things to come, someone confirmed the rabbits are still invincible, but having this in simply means they are one step closer to implementation.
  12. There is no separate thread because this is a change log that encompasses ALL of the change's/differences between stable and .42 When stable get's updated then expect a new thread with the new changes between the new stable and new experimental.
  13. I understand, but the key difference between you and a new player is that you have a body of experience in the game, so for you discarding guidelines that don't apply to you is not an issue. From your experience of play you have "the odds" in your favor and innately know where and how you are likely to encounter trouble. A new player lacks this advantage and accordingly either learns from a post like this or by running about getting shot, as they develop as players they will discard the guidelines that don't work, keep the ones that do and make their own resulting in their own unique playstyle. Starting from a template such as the OP they can avoid some of the pitfall's of learning the hard way and maybe they will be generally nicer players and willing to share their wisdom and experience with other's they meet in game, I'm not saying thats going to happen but it might.

    Using pens to mark blood type on blood bag...

    Yes I'd hold people at gun point and force them to take my blood and carry it about in the hopes I can have revenge from beyond the grave or "stash" it in a high traffic area. Edit: should be able to use a syringe and blood test kit on a blood bag just to be sure.

    Suggestion from a server hopper

    Why is everyone getting so mad it's fucking friday!! There's allegedly a large patch hitting experimental and I believe the current experimental is going stable, Hello respawning infected which is btw awesome and scary, carry plenty of bandages!! Gun spawn rates are balanced a bit better imo, and they did a bit of a nerf on the mosin so no more one hit kill's. Snipers are you actually skilled or just a point and click person? I'll be on and off over the weekend likely hungover at some point have fun!!
  18. I don't see where you're coming from with this, maybe if you go into more detail about how it doesn't apply to your playstyle or what your tenants to live by are it would help us. I find the advice useful and it articulates some things that I do very well, from my perspective it's about visiting area's where players might already be looting or camping and ensuring that the player takes suitable precautions to safeguard themselves. Then leaving without a trace to make it hard for people who follow to distinguish how long it's been since you where there. Also some of the tactics serve to delay any person who is following the same loot route as you ensuring they don't catch up and get you with your pants down so to speak.

    Suggestion from a server hopper

    Yes this and ghosting which it seems very effective against, unless it's a long fire fight with multiple people involved.

    Are you ready for a zombie apocalypse?

    I saw an article, the Canadian government does, apparently it "swift military neutralization" Personally I have a friend that has a cottage on an island with a couple of sail boats and I have basic bush craft/survival skills good first aid knowledge so provided I can get up there I'd rate my chances pretty well. Once there I'd set about preparing the surrounding islands as quarantine zone's in order to save as many people as possible without placing the current survivors at risk. Hunting and fishing would provide a bulk of the food and I'm assuming that come winter, by time the lake freezes over the zombies/infected would literally become frozen in the sub zero temperatures. This would provide an excellent opportunity to begin scouting the surrounding areas and begin assessing the state of things, maybe even start building fortified building's on the mainland and of course begin recovery.
  21. Just sticky this please mods, Mr Etherimp, thank you for the well put together and well thought out excellent advice your a champion.

    Character wipes still happening?

    That's also what I do, again I've never experienced char wipes sticking to "brandname" servers.

    Character wipes still happening?

    You do know that your character stays in the game for 30 seconds after you logout/exit, this was implemented a while ago as a counter measure to people who'd open fire, realize they are a shit shot and then alt+F4 to save their lives. Edit: If you are going to start a thread to say how shitty you think this is please use the search function and add to one of the many many threads on this topic already.
