  1. Logged in this morning. When the black faded away and I was to start playing I found myself staring into a magnum revolver. "You are dead". Damn I thought, So I restartedm shit happens. But that was just the beginning of todays shit that was pouring my way. :(

     

    I found tons of food at water cantens, but no backpack, not even a bright yellow one with a bullseye painted on it. And ofc, no opener. :(

    I also found buckshots, tons and tons of buckshots. could've easily filled 3-4 backpacks with buckshots, but no shotgun. :(

    I did however find 4 mosin, but no ammo. :(

     

    I think I'll just climb that watertower there and commit suicide. Someone is desperately trying to tell me something. I better listen. :D


  2. I found my way on to a derelict ship. There are two nice looking rescue boats on board, and I can clearly see there are things in them. And there are ladders too, but there is no way to climb up and get the loot. I tried everything to get the climb action, but nada. What am I missing here? or is it a well known bug?


  3. Lulz. I was walking towards a window to peek out. Suddenly I broke both my legs. At least I think I did, because I can't stand anymore. people usually get this bug? And why doesnt it say anywhere I got one or two broken legs? I mean IRL I would know, right?

     

    But how do I heal myself now. I use intibiotics, bandages and then what? wait for 7 day's ingame. I think that whats it takes to heal a broken leg IRL, and realism is what this games about, right?


  4. I finally managed to drink from a pond. But then there came the obvious question. Am I continously drinking or do I have to klick to drink several times? I Waited for quite some time but the "thirsty" never changed, and when I spamklicked I had to do it like 30 times. Always good to know how too do it properly. ;)


  5. thirsty in red means you are dying of thirst, you must drink a lot to even get to yellow.  The food and water system is kind of hard to understand for new players, luckily this forum has a guy called Merino who will explain everything to you if you take the time to watch his very informative videos:

    Watch his guides on thrirst and hunger.  Basically you must eat and drink a lot when you first spawn to attain healthy status.  Once you are healthy eating and drinking becomes less of a pain.  You must remember according to the lore of the game your character survived some traumatic ordeal like a shipwreck (when spawn on beach) or a helicopter crash (when spawn inland) and is in very bad shape when you spawn.  So your first priority is to sort out your health when spawning.

     

    Nice, thanx a lot for that info. helped a lot. One more question about drinking. I have a big lake to my right. I can't drink it at all. Is it saltwater? because there are bushes groving in the sand next to it that kinda suggests it's freshwater. Saltwater should instakill a bush trying to grow there. :) Or is it just the makers who are bad @ biology. :D


  6. I'm defenitly drinking. At least it goes from 100% to 0% and then the is nothing left in my bag. Strange thing with tha is, when I eat I usually take "seconds". First time I eat the can down to 30% or something and then I eath the rest. The soda I tend to gulp down in one giant slurp. Again a glitch perhaps? or is it meant to be like that? One can of carbonated soda? I'll burpkill the zombies after that. :)

     

    EDIT: Oh forgot. The thirsty is always red for me. Does it come in different colors?


  7. Thank you. fast and nice answers. You are my new best friend.   :) 

     

    I'll try and drown myself next time I need to drink then. :)  But I'm currently playing again, and once again I am drinking over 4 cans of soda but I'm still thirsty? this must be a big bug/glitch, or perhaps the game just don't like me.

     

    Byw, is there anywhere I can read about when they will be "cluttering" up the world. It seems rather empty at the moment. I mean 10 houses, 10 kitchens and not a single fork or spoon? Everyone uses firewood, but not a single axe or knife. I'm sure they are going to put those out at sometime. Could be fun to know somewhat when :)


  8. Ok, so I'm new. So bare with me if these questions have been asked before. But you can't expect me to read over 1000 posts to find an answer now do you? :)

     

    First of all. Will all the doors in houses be able to open in the future? Don't know about you, but those flimsy door in these houses I could easily break down irl so..

     

    Will I be able to open up dressers? I mean, some are allready open and rags are a vital part in this game. Don't want to leave that nice stack of t-shirts just beacuse I can't seem to open that flimsy dresser door made out of plywood thin as paper.

     

    And will I be able to open up the refrigerators. Food anyone? Don't know about you, but I usually have a can or 6 in my refrigirator. So it's strange I can't open them ingame.

     

    I have been running around and just watching the sceneries. It's great. Nice game and I actually got lost in the woods. I was feeling thirsty as hell and I couldn't find any houses. I DID however find that nice pond there. Crystal clear water, nice location. Perfect for a camp. But first of all, I couldn't drink the water. Why? I'm thirsty and I'm standing kneedeep in a beatiful pond. Why can't I drin?  And will I be able to make camp someday in the future? Sleeping bags, a nice cozy fire. You know.

     

    On the thirsty thing note. What is going on with that? I was thirsty, had 4 cans of some slimy soda in my backpack. Drank all of them and was still thirsty? Just a bug, or is it going to be like this? I have to drink over 100 cans a day, just to survive.

     

    Food, well. During that time I was lost in the woods. I couldn't drink and eat for a whole night. It was dark, so I could barely see anything. Looked and looked for fodd. Couldn't find any. Starved to death before the day came. Starved to death in 6 hours?  So basically I have to have a trailer full with water and food just to survive one day. Not that I'm complaining or anything. Just want to make sure these are glitches, bugs or whatever soon to be rectified?

     

    Overall a nice game. I can't stop playing it, so it will be fun following this game through beta and into a full fledged game. Good work guys! :)
