  1. Damn right, so glad to see the private hives and loving it. Ghosting is definitely a shit move.

    Zombie door blockers - solution

    Hiding the body is still in, it just seems that it can only be done outside and not while in a building.

    Helo Crash (odd occurrence)

    This, I bet, is the best of all the SWAGs so far. I was about 75 meters from the gas station in Svetlo when it went up in a ball of flames on my right. Scared the shit outta me and I did a fast 90 degree turn to the left and got the hell outta there quick as I could.

    Hoping for character resets!

    Actually my friend if you switch over to Experimental this is precisely what happens with every publish and sometimes even when the exp publish is tweaked. This is one of the plethora of reasons I like Experimental.
  5. It is bad form and it is just as or even more likely to have been another hopper rather than an admin. One great thing about Private Hives is none of this hopping nonsense. It can't be done since the privates are not connected to a central d-base, every private hive is a different character and all start as freshies.. As a result I only play on private servers now. I love it.

    Found a Helicopter crash and fully stocked military base

    Not if he did it on a private shard, no hopping on those. Loving it.
  7. Great server guys! Thanks and keep it up, feels like home here.

    Why all the judgement?

    I dunno, it's like the whole debate around combat logging. I am fairly sure that all the bitching about combat logging is way over blown because if some one successfully evades during combat then it is likely that the evader is labeled a "combat logger" by the attacker. Surely it can't be because the attacker sucks at tracking and/or shooting, it must have been a cowardly logger.

    Which map do you use?

    That's not a flaw, pretty sure that is as intended, certain map parts go with certain map parts. It's like putting an LRS on an SKS, just can't be done in game but I bet it could be rigged in RL. Just flow with it.

    Which map do you use?

    You don't need to keep the pieces, you should combine them N with S, E with W and so on. This way you get one map that takes up only one space. On this point and why I selected other, once I have an in game map that is complete I feel free to use iZurvive on my iPad. I don't really use a map too much these days though, mostly compass if I get disoriented in the woods.

    More Spray Pain Color Options For Latter Please! :)

    I would love to be able to paint the MP-133 and AKM-101, can't do it right now but should be able to. Splitting Axe and Shovel should be paintable also, anyone who ever stood an inspection with a vehicle knows that. I love the pot leaf patch, in fact reminds me of an episode of That 70's Show and that we should definitely be able to tag, POT LEAVES ON EVERY WATER TOWER PROVINCE WIDE I SAY!!! If I had a pink rifle I bet no one would steal it.

    MICH 2000 Helmet Cover

    yes please, definitely should be craftable from already existing jackets and rope.

    "Hunting"

    No one mentioned it so far but keep a very close eye on what you are cooking, as soon as it goes from raw to cooked get it out of the fire otherwise it will burn, as in not well done, as in it will, at least right now, make your ass sick.

    Common items you've never seen.

    I actually saw my first rabbit over the weekend, it was in Sevrograd, didn't get a clean shot at it though and did not feel like being zed bait either. Wish I had taken a picture since it was the first one I had seen besides the fluffy ones you could not kill before hunting, again could not get a clear enough shot. I have yet to see a chicken or a Smersh myself. I can't find the attachments for the AK's since the last patch, no folding buttstocks or rail handguards anywhere, have not seen any bipods for a long time either. I haven't seen the press vest or the anti stab vest for a while, I think since .48 hit. I have found tents in both .49 and .50, just a bitch to find and the last one was on a persistence off sever so it went poof.

    1st person dying breed

    What happened to the Idle Thumbs server? It switched from 1st person to 3rd with the recent release, before that I kept getting an authentication error trying to log in. Sorry about Aloha is for Tourists going down, I lost my job and had to make some cut backs.

    Notes You've Found/Written

    I love these, they are great, lets us write our own stories. I have written and left a few notes laying around, never heard if they have been found. Usually it is in the form of a letter pleading with someone, working in an imaginary aid agency, to get to nearest the airport to catch an evacuation flight because of the infection.

    Well, I combat logged.

    Good, cause for the most part I like your posts Sorry, same here, people call everyone who combat logs cowards so I figure everyone who does is, obviously to me, is a back shooting coward, wild ass accusation meets wild ass accusations. What's new there? Nothing. Like I said, I am not playing to be a toy for some sick psycho, maybe you are but I am NOT. Nor am I going to participate in such bullshit. I don't like any of you enough to play with you. If I see you first, I will be evading at top speed. No, sorry, it isn't. Where does it say that was designed to stop combat logging? Is this just speculation on the part of the player base or has a dev stated this as being the case? Link please. The reason I ask is because it is the same when logging in, plenty of times I have been killed by zeds just waiting to gain control of my character at log in. So am I "combat logging in" at that point and is that discouraged too? Why would that be? Sorry, but they sure as hell do. I am sure the staff at a certain Dallas Hospital would say that Thomas Duncan "combat logged" out of West Africa. Everyone who ran to Canada to avoid the draft during the Vietnam War were combat loggers in my eyes. So yes, people combat log in real life, for sure, it's just not nearly as simple as disconnecting.

    Well, I combat logged.

    Oh, did I prick a nerve there? I just don't think anyone has any right to tell anyone what is right or wrong in a WIP like this. I'll say it again, I don't combat log and I don't KoS, I only shoot if I am being shot at. I do, firmly believe, that most, if not all the people who bitch about combat loggers are back shooters who feel they are being cheated out of some imaginary score that the game is not keeping. There was a time when that was considered the epitome of cowardlyness, now it is such a common practice that you even called it a "style". Sorry but I just can't agree with it as I am not your toy to be played with. It's like the only time I was ever handcuffed, I logged out immediately, dude killed me, fine, no problem but I'd rather start over then play some sick ass bondage game with some psycho father raper. Please show me, where exactly, it says how this game is "meant to be played". A link or a video, anything. The same people who bitch about realism and what would happen in RL are some of the most vociferous whiners about combat logging. Do you think this is how RL would go down? If it is I feel sorry for you.

    Well, I combat logged.

    Of course it is, just like shooting people in the back is really, really brave.
  21. barnabus

    Well, I combat logged.

    BTW OP, all these "hero's" talking trash about how cowardly it is to combat log will be the first ones to bravely shoot you in the back. Cause, you know, shooting you is the back is so manly.
