  1. I'm willing to bet that they make multiple types of tent/storage. Something lockable, perhaps like warz/infestation stories safe or what not, with a keypad for a pass-code. I would be fine with just a normal tent, though it would be like giving cheaters your gear whenever they wanted

    NWAF - You lied to me

    I feel like your most likely to get sniped at an airfield.. Just stick to major cities and the coast. You can find plenty of bandits and others looking for a fight. Electro is my favorite, almost always people moving in or out of that area. Then go north along the coast and you have a very high % of running into hostiles. Its like what you would expect in a predator - prey situation.. All the predators hang out where the prey, or freshspawns, hang out. The NWAF is just too far out there, stick to the coast and follow behind some freshies / bait
  3. Just use a Mosin with LRS and compensator, or a M4 with acog. You can start to get a feel for distances when you start marking targets. After a while it comes pretty easy. I've become very accurate in my own estimates and can almost always guess the correct distance before my first shot. Anyways, when you are only 50-100m off, you will most likely still hit the target
  4. From my expert analysis, we should have barricades within 3 weeks and the bicycle released in no more than 10 weeks. Would estimate bikes at 5 weeks tho.

    Vests

    They must have decreased the spawn rate. Mostly found badly damaged ones :( In Electro, be sure to look in that School building on the 2nd floor. You know, the one across the courtyard from the Hospital

    Mosin Vs B95

    From what i've experienced, the Mosin does more damage. Could have just been a fluke, but I'll stick with the Mosin

    Do transmitters exist?

    Yea, same thing, just now they work :) Pretty sure you have to change from direct coms to the walkie with the "." (period key)

    Breaking "IT"

    The Road.. lol. Actually just watched that the other night to get an understanding of what Rocket was so interested in. I feel that right now, its so much easier to just kill someone else and erase chance of betrayal.. Once more things are added to the game, and gun spawns and ammo become harder to find along with more engaging zombies, it will come to a point where players wont be as inclined to just murder other survivors. Surviving will have become more difficult, and players will start holding other up more often and perhaps work with others more frequently.

    Summary of dev Q&As from streams

    Like I had said in the post, in skyrim bow damage was not modified by where you hit on the target. So, in the skyrim world, a hit to the face was the same as a hit to the foot
  10. So, just wondering, but what kind of cheats have yall encountered so far? I have seen people on buildings that are unclimbable, like one in Cherno that I couldnt get up (could have been I didnt know how to go up further than the first ladder landing. Ive gone up other ladders multi story, but that one wouldnt let me... I've also experienced players shooting the mosin at extreme speeds and recently was shot through a wall. I would really like to know if anyone else has experienced anything like the last one, where you have seen a player or been in a position where the only possible explanation could have been someones bullets going through solid material..

    Summary of dev Q&As from streams

    I'm a little worried when they mention skyrim style bow play... Hope they have a damage multiplier for the head/chest
  12. Wait... you still look at the loot before you pick it up? lolnoob

    1.5 million

    Alpha and already better than most of the other titles out there :)
  14. Chawktah

    7 of us wiped out by a single teleporter.

    You can generally kill them when you put ur back to a wall. They might port beside you, or in the wall, but you should have a decent chance to kill them. Should be easier if you have a group too..
  15. Yea, remove it! We don't need no stinkin dots

    Zombie changes ^^

    10,000 zombies and 150 survivors.... Sign me up
  17. Most of the time people go through the military areas they are looking for 5.56, so It may just take you a few servers to reach your ammo goals. Pretty sure its only spawning in the military zones and the police station on the north east coast. Could have sworn the boxes used to spawn in civilian areas too, but I havent seen any in a while

    Crossbow/Bow & Arrow

    Hopefully there will be at least a few different types of stringed weapons. We need Craftable bows, crossbows, long bows, compound bows and maybe slingshots.. Certain shots should be instant death, like head and maybe neck. Will be interesting to see how they mitigate damage. Personally I feel I would gravitate towards a compound hunting bow over crossbows and what not. They shouldnt have to make aiming too hard, as long as the physics works realistically. Maybe have your pull strength determined by how long you hold down the trigger like in other games.

    Teaming up in game? Barely...

    I have yet to actually find someone to play with other than people I know IRL. It should happen more often, but I suppose im more of a lone wolf type. Then again, most people with gear out there would rather kill you than have you running around them with your gun out.
  20. Ermm, having a tent or hidden bag or whatever get ruined just because you died? Yea, not gonna happen. They said there will be item degradation over time, and I'm assuming only things like food or batteries... Maybe other things when they implement the whole repair system for ruined gear.
  21. Show us some more screens if you have any where items just appear... Could they have just been laying out gear? Maybe someone was using a teleport cheat with esp to grab gear and come back to dump it. Maybe they were duping the items?

    Whats Being Done To Combat ESP Hacks?

    Yea, when you decide to run on higher populated servers you will definitely run into a few cheaters. Haven't been on in a few days, but it seemed to be getting worse. Really, I'm not too worried about it atm. Think about it... it's still alpha, where players die from glitches like running up stairs or falling out of a building due to the desync. I think i've got around 300 hours and can confirm around 6 deaths from cheating and probably 10 times that from normal gameplay. 1 out of 10 ain't bad :)

    AIRPORT FFS

    I agree... I'm also pretty sure they will continue to develop new structures and reformat the current cities, like what they are doing with the police station and clinic. To help with the future implementation of civilian aircraft they should definitely consider a larger airport, plenty of aircraft debris, a large terminal area with plenty of hiding spaces and what not.. To help with future implementation of vehicles, i would suggest a car dealership or just more of those junk yards. Would also be cool to see a mall or shopping center, some kind of street market, maybe an oil field.. Like some others have said - adding some mansions and formerly gang controlled properties.... A bike shop, supermarket, gun store, car mechanic shop... Just some normal everyday buildings.. Also I'm thinking they will throw in more apocalypse related structures, like road blocks, sandbagged buildings where survivors had linked up at the start, some cars that had driven into buildings.

    Invisble player is not a hack.

    Well, this is one instance of it being your connection.. I have encountered invisible players that turned out to be cheaters. Neither me nor my friend playing had any issues. I was killed first, then when my friend was looking for my body the guy who killed me transported next to my friend and killed him. Some people may cry cheat, and some are mistaken.. Just wait, and it will happen to you too

    SKS

    Just wondering, but did you find the anti-stab vest before the sks? lol
