It's interesting to see how many ways there are to play this game. All coming back to my original point. I have no qualms with being killed the other day I lost a character I had kept alive for nearly a week. I had literally no problems with dying then because as pointed out once looted up the game becomes a countdown to death as there are no real threat from zombies etc. I have absolutely no problems dying, I just wish people would be more creative I want some of the crazy messed up situations I see in youtube videos to happen to me. Right, all this talk has made me want to get into game and have some fun. Anyone out there who wants to play I usually end up in Meh gamingdeluxe server or our own server which is called Ronin. I will be heading to the North east base right now from fresh spawn. I will either see you and share a tin of beans or you will kos either way cya there

Hey so let me elaborate a little on the few experiences I am talking about. Number one. I come up to the factory north of Dolina to see a fresh spawn running in with no weapon. I announce myself and come in behind him. I say don't worry I will help you take out the zombies man you don't have a weapon. So I draw my axe and start taking them out. He applauds and puts his thumb up. I explain that I am trying to help out a few new spawns in the busy servers as I really like the idea of doing this in the game. I say it's highly likely that there is a weapon and backpack here so once he is geared up a bit I will leave him be. I give him a tin of food and he eats it. Happy as can be. So I go round the corner to kill the zombies and the little P***K has only gone and got a wrench and repeatedly tried hitting me round the head with it only to miss. I of course got out my M4 and disposed of him. Instance 2 north east airfield, I have no weapon drawn, I have no bandit gear on. I see a guy coming toward me round the front of the hanger I turn to run into the hanger then gradually peer out. No weapon drawn. Over direct comms he says "Put your hands up I am not going to shoot you I just want food" I put my hands up and say I have a few tins he is welcome to them. Before even getting to me bang dead. I like to think he ruined my tins and starved to death. See I completely agree with what some people are saying about being startled but I always make a point of announcing myself. To paraphrase the mighty Dolph Lundgren, If I die I die. But to me this game has always been more than just a massive deathmatch, I feel sorry for people who treat it that way because you are missing the much bigger picture. Like the other day, I meet a guy in the North east airfield prison block, I call out friendly he does the same. After a few minutes of talking we decide that we can trust each other and he informs me that he was looking for sticks as his other mate had a broken leg, so I abandom my search for an acog sight and help them. Now I have both of them added on my steam list and I have like minded players to share the awesome experience with. To me this game is all about survival and scavenging, I love how many new elements get added in if you only try and experience it different ways. Like when a few of us played together as new spawns but as there was not enough food to keep 3 new spawns healthy tension started to grow in our group and we had to all try and remain as fair as possible. This game will never be just a massive deathmatch this is a strategy survival fps or tps depending on preference, Notice SHOOTER will always be last in my list.

I agree with what Droopy is saying, it would be good to see some sort of system eventually in place where peoples moralistic choices would determine the outcome of their overall gaming experience.

I am so glad my mate just read this as I have just found a mosin with loads of ammo and would have been playing completely oblivious. This "game" although in alpha I have to say, I have more fun playing this than any other game around. It is getting close to rivaling Final Fantasy 7 as my all time favorite game and that is a game that has never been beaten. Awesome work and probably the best 97 hours in 2 weeks I have had :D

I agree with piles on this one, Don't get me wrong the game looks amazing in daytime and at night with a moon is more than playable. But when there is no moon whatsoever then you can see literally sweet fa. Now I am aware that this adds an ultra sense of realism and yes it does make the game 10x scarrier. I think what Piles was trying to say is the complete disproportion of day to night servers since the update, for example, when I go on to play after work in the evening, there may be a selection of around 50-100 servers, only possibly 10-15 of those will be daytime and full of people so you can't get in. As I said I am more than happy to play at night with a moon, but when it's cloudy what is the point in playing one of the nicest looking games around and being able to see precisely sweet FA? I think if it was sorted so with clouds you could still at least see something then it would be great Now if I had the option to host a daytime server all the time, then I would buy my own, but I am not going to hire a server only to get home from work and it be dark and not want to play in it.
