I can't wait for a year from now when many of the people who say "Relax it's early Alpha" finally realize that their hopes and dreams are misguided. I sincerely hope I am wrong. I really enjoy the game and would like to see it succeed, but I am getting a strong feeling that we are all going to be disappointed.

I believe Orthodox is the main religion in Russia, but I am not 100% on that. I am a non-practicing Russian Orthodox. Taken from Google: Orthodox Christianity is Russia's largest religion with 75% of the population belonging to the Orthodox Christian denomination. Islam is professed by 5% of the population. Catholicism, Protestantism, Judaism and Buddhism are professed by 1% of the population each.

My first week playing I was also in Polana. Ran into the building with the roll up door and agro'd a zombie from behind the building. It came through the wall inside the building where i was standing, proceeded out the rolled up door and into the building across the street. I was like "my lucky day." Turned around to loot and the damn thing was standing behind me the whole time just standing there. I swear I shit my pants a little that night. I killed it and had to take a moment to regain myself.

That truck driving really is some of the creepiest shit ive seen in a long time. Yikes.

I've never run into an issue with logging out, but I could see the potential of issues arising as the game adds more and more content. Sure making sure the area is secure and safe before you leave is prudant, but there's is always that chance that something could happen. Anyway, it was just a suggestion. Thanks for your feedback.

My only complaint with the timer is this. When you log out, you go to the server screen but your character remains in game sitting there for about 30 seconds. I like this, but I think it should be changed so that when you are logging out and you're sitting there, you remain in game and in control of your character. As it is now, you're vulnerable and can be killed without even being on the server. I'd like to see them make it so that you character sits down and you get a prompt on the screen letting you know that you are logging out. Any movement you make will cancel the logout. So you have ot remain still. What it does is make it so that in the random chance someone happens upon you in that 30 seconds you can defend yourself.

^^This. Worst video ever. Please NEVER post again. That was just god awful.

That's a....That's a special kind of something or other right there.

My only regret is not screen shotting the aftermath. :(

That's a valid point. Regardless, I don't need to know a lot about urban tactics to know that when my friend dies trying to go up the stairs, I'm not going to follow. Maybe it's the bandit mentality. Must kill everything at all costs.

A few nights ago a group of us decided to give Berenzino a look since we hadn't been there in some time. Sitting outside the North Western section we can hear multiple shots ringing out. Clearly a Mosin, also an M4 and what sounded like and SKS. My group of 3 was outfitted with me (SKS w/scope), friend 1 with M4, and friend 2 with a Mosin and a LRS. We figured we'd head for the apartments by the grocery store and see what we could see. We make it to the 4th floor of the apartments. We have M4 cover the stairs while Mosin takes one of the far rooms and I take the other. That night Berenzino was like a warzone. So many shots being fired from all around us. Problem was we couldn't see where they were coming from. A short while later I can see two guys running down the road towards the store. We get ready. They head in to the store just as another "bambi like" player heads in from the backside. I say bambi like because he had only a fire extinguisher on his back. Within seconds, shots in the store. Bambi is dead. At this point we figure we've got bandits. Sure enough they head into our apartment building. M4 covers the stairs and I step back to cover the hallway leading across the top of the stairs. Mosin pulls out his .357 and covers the hallway facing back towards me, but cant see me. Fisrt guy rounds the first set of stairs leading up to us and our M4 friend lets loose. One guy dead. From down stairs the other guy comes over comms and says "I'm not in the mood for this today man." Our M4 responds with "then you better leave." He doesn't nstead he creeps the stairs and manages to wound our M4 guy. I tell our M4 guy to slide to the right in to cover and bandage. Bandit comes to the top of the stairs to finish off friend 1 and is met with 2 rounds from my SKS. You'd think there was a bikini party on the 4th floor that night. People just kept coming and coming and coming. Eventually our M4 friend was killed as was Friend 2. I managed to kill off the rest of the people coming up that night. Slowly worked my way out of the building while killing 2 Bambi's that were trying to punch me to death (assumed they were reincarnated versions of the bandits we killed). I made it to cover outside Berenzino in the woods and had to log for work the next day. I started that night with about 125 SKS rounds and ended the night with 18. I had a blast night. We all did even though they died. I guess my only question out of this is, what posses people to make those horrible decisions. The first guy died while coming to the 4th floor, why in gods name would the 2nd guy announce himself and then try to push up to our level? There's no loot in those building (that ive ever seen) and he was at a tacticle disadvantage. If that were me, I would have left and been happy I survived. The only think I can think of is that only our M4 guy talked direct comms to the guys downstairs. Perhaps they assumed he was alone. Well thats my story. Hope you enjoyed it. In all there were at least 7-10 bodies at the top of those stairs.

6 coordinated people in a server vs a few people playing solo... I rate 0/10 You want to make that more interesting. Take you 6 bandits against an equally adept team of survivors or heros on comms or in a LAN like you. You may still win, but at least it would be a lot more interesting.

Hard to believe that I have survived for so long, I can understand that, seeing that my friends have died to ladder bugs many times, as well as each being shot and killed multiple times. I assure you that the character was over a month old. Patches never restarted me, even after friends sayid they got restarted. I have no idea why. I am new yes. I wanted to get used to my surrondings and gain a fair understanding of game mechanics, before I ventured to higher populated servers. Was it boring? Hell yes. At times I was bored out of my mind, but most of the time we would just move from town to town scavenging for supplies.

Are you suggesting that there is only one way to play the game? That being, your way?
