Did you read anything?

I fail to see your issue. 1) Joining a server fast to help friends ghosting, combat loggings dark twin brother. 2) You mention 'but I play day servers, not night ones', or joining the 'wrong' server. Use your favorites list, thats what it is there for. 3) The timer is something like 300 seconds. Go take a break. You have failed with every post you have made to give us a compelling argument, or even any argument at all. Most of your reasoning seems to stem from some kind of server hoping mentality.

Glad to help :)

Read the patch notes. Also, even before the patch notes you needed to eat about 30 cans of beans for your energy to fill up completely. If you still need help check out the new players section under guides, or do a forum search about the topic. There are many many good posts.

I have no clue what game you guys are playing. Me and FIVE of my friends were in a server that had 20 people in it. In less than an hour and a half we were fully geared with weapons and supplies. You people are doing something very, very wrong. Go watch any popular streamer, they also have 0 problem finding loot. I wish I could help more but I have no clue how people are having this much trouble. Even worse, if you ARE somehow against all odds having this much trouble, log into an unpopulated server until you have some food and water. I just really cant understand the complaining I keep seeing about 'omg no loot'.

Because of the new town, everywhere is spawning less loot. However the op is correct, there are several buildings that do not spawn loot at all, nor have they since the game was released. There are also multiple areas where loot is spawning in the floor.

As far as I know the Mosin only pulls to the left if your scope is damaged, otherwise its pretty accurate. I would assume the SKS is about the same, with slightly more dispersion.

Looked like some kind of exploit, but that guy has some wicked fast combat log reflexes!

I would say both would be the best solution. That way we can add to the knowledge base for people that have the same issue. A perfect example is how Grimey had a possible workaround. Being as you know about the bug report section, you also know how much junk is in it. If this turns out to be a common bug mentioning it here allows more of the general community to find solutions to the issue.

Err... No thats assassinating. Death-match has instant re-spawn, a score is kept, and is usually found in twitch firstperson shooters.

If you have a loaded gun when you log in, people for about 200m hear a very loud loading sound to alert them that an armed player has logged in in their vicinity. Unloading your gun makes this not happen, but than your logging in with an unloaded weapon.

Spartan, generally your posts are pretty good Im assuming your just frustrated. If you want your problem fixed you need to post more information. Computer specs Type of server (did you try experimental, hardcore/regular) Where you died, was anything happening to the server you died in? Have you varied your game cashe? Have you re-installed? I expect a little more than bellyaching from you :P I know you know this is an alpha. And boom a ninja workaround. Any relevant information would still be helpful though.

Alpha: game breaking bugs and interruption of game play. YOU AGREE TO THIS EVERY FUCKING TIME YOU PLAY. Go away.

Not much hope for you. We are basically in Russia in the high northern latitude. The sun rises south of east and sets south of west. Its much worse in the winter. Where im from the sun was setting at about 4:30 for the last month, and im not nearly as high a latitude as parts of Russia. Dont think this would help him

Elektro is basically a war-zone. As well as military bases and airfields. As for how you handled the situation, thats up to you. He didnt announce his presence, your friend needed a gun and you were in Elektro. I generally try to help people when I can but my golden rule is: Unless im in control of the situation, I will shoot first. Hesitation has gotten me killed to many times.

Firing modes are not fully functional yet the T key doesnt work without a pain in the ass workaround. Single shot: one trigger pull, must reload (some shotguns not in game) Double barrel single shot: Two barrels each with one shell, pull trigger to fire each (in game shotgun) Bolt action: The round must be ejected manually after every shot, by pulling back the 'bolt'. Pushing the bolt forward moves the next round in the magazine into the chamber. (Mosin) Semiautomatic: Reloads itself after every trigger pull, continue to pull trigger. (SKS, eventually the M4) Burst fire: Fire 3-6 round bursts (depends on gun) for every trigger pull (M4 some day) Full auto/ automatic: Continues firing while you hold the trigger until you are out of amo, or let go of the trigger (M4 default) Eventually the M4 will be able to toggle between 3 round burst-fire, Semiautomatic, and full auto. Full auto is useful for clearing area by filling it full of led, burst fire is an attempt at a happy medium to conserve amo during war-times it was used to help people not empty entire clips at targets they may not be able to hit. Semiautomatic is for control and bullet conservation. This is the basic rundown. I hope someone finds it helpful. TLDR: Mosin =Bolt actionSKS = SemiautomaticM4 = Automatic, (in the future burst, and Semiautomatic) Edit: Bolt action Simi automatic Break open Full auto http://youtu.be/72SaqSxK6P8?t=54s

Quit trying to make friends in fire-stations and airfields.

I dont understand. Are you unable to connect to one of the 0/40 servers until you can learn the basic functioning of the game? I can not comprehend how you took all the time to post this, and it never occurred to you to join a lower population server. Now if your thinking about saying something about other players, know this: 80% of armed players, or people in a group of 2 or more will kill you, only to kill you. Stay off the coast, if you have interaction keep your guard up, control the situation. If you still think its 'unfair' or bad, this is probably not the game for you.

Has always been this way.

Keep up the awesome work!

You have three states for items. In handUse (space bar to toggle, flashlights and compass included, axe is bugged you want the axe not at the ready to use it)Sight (tap right click, only for guns/scopes, Long range scope will let you hold your breath and zoom holding right click after you have Sighted your weapon)

Thats your opinion. And your either simple or just want to feel superior. There are clear advantages for having to drop each weapon in favor of the other one. If you cant see the strategic impact, you should find another forum to troll.

Poll is bias, no way to vote for an increased timer.

People who dont want to get shot stay away from sniper hill, and do not go to military loot spots. Entering a free fire zone makes you free game. I know when I go to a military base I am taking my life into my hands. People seriously need to adjust your perception. I have helped just as many people as I have killed. Many of the people I have killed have made poor decisions. But people who cant wrap your heads around the fact that what makes this game unique is how YOU choose to play it, and how that choice effects your experience in game. If you choose to not defend yourself, and take reasonable precautions you WILL die. Though shit. Wishing some other player made a choice that you wanted him to make, and complaining when they dont is insanity. The definition of insanity? Repeating the same action over and over again and expecting a different outcome. Instead take into account that the other person may have 0 respect for the 'life' of your avatar. What is your move then?

Thats the lazy ez way out. If you want to help people TAKE CONTROL of the situation. Assume they want to kill you. DEFEND yourself, with no remorse. If you tell someone to put their hands up and go prone and they walk away, shoot them. If they come closer than 15 feet after being told to keep their distance, shoot them. Your solution is lazy, it takes work to be a hero. Its easy to just shoot people. Knowing when not to shoot, thats the real skill.
