Howdy y'all I tried to go back to the stable branch after playing a while in Experimental, and when I tried to launch the game, I got an error message exactly the same as the one in the title. Help me out? Thanks! Smorisson28 (or, RustyPancake)

Howdy, y'all Title says it all. I've seen screen shots of players checking the amount of players of the servers (with a list of names and everything.) Are these people hacking or is there a way to check this during gameplay? Thanks! Smorisson28 (or, RustyPancake)

Thanks, buddy!

Howdy, y'all I spawned in an area to which I have never been. Here's a picture of a big landmark of the area. http://i.imgur.com/QsbgFRy.jpg I was on a low-pop server looking for loot in Elektro when someone started using racial slurs and killed me on sight. I hate that kind of player. He got lucky. I had my M4 pointed at him, telling him to put his pistol down so that I could give him some stuff as a peace offering, and he got me with one shot to the head. Frustrating as hell. Anyway, now I'm lost, so some help would be appreciated. Smorisson28 (or, RustyPancake)

Wow, yeah, that was really helpful. I like you. Can we be buddies?

Howdy, y'all, Question: Why is it what when I'm in first person with a gun raised and I hold down the right mouse button, I'm not seeing through the sights? Is there a separate button for aiming? Thank you! Smorisson28 (or, RustyPancake)

Is it really such a big deal? I expected I'd get sick after a while, but I've been soaked for a long, long time, and I haven't noticed any problems. Help me out? Smorisson28 (or, RustyPancake)

Howdy, y'all I was on top of a building in Berezino, the game glitched, and I fell off. I spawned somewhat close to the place, so I went directly there, but upon arrival, I wasn't able to loot my body. Is this a glitch? Smorisson28 (or, RustyPancake)

Howdy, y'all. I've logged about 22 hours so far, and in that time I've spawned six or seven times. I've always spawned by the coast. I like to make my way inland (hit the police stations in Msta and Vybor, hospitals, those things) and make my way further inland, away from the bulk of the other players. Why is it that I always spawn on the coast? Does everyone spawn on the coast? It makes sense in terms of getting your bearings very quickly, but players who like to stay out of the area between Berenzino and Elektro have a lot of trouble getting away without running into anybody. Is there anybody who doesn't spawn on the coast? Is there any way to change that? I don't really have specific questions, just looking for someone to tell me more about spawning. Smorisson28 (or, RustyPancake)

I would, but it's a little late, I think. There was a zombie chasing me around and I couldn't find a weapon, so that's that, I guess. I'm not too upset, though. That's what this game's about, right? Getting back up and going again.

It would definitely be more realistic. Maybe some day the devs will make your own body invisible to you once you respawn.

Hey, thanks. Yeah, that's pretty much what I expected to hear. I like your signature, there. I appreciate your "friendly" status. Bandits are the worst. I swear, if I ever get good at this game, I'm taking them out whenever I see them.

Yeah, that's a really good point. I've been sitting in bushes outside of cities trying to see if it's safe to go in (like, any heavily armed players running around, any gun shots, whatever) and out of nowhere I mean there's a zombie screaming from behind me. I'm a new player, so I haven't had many runs with lots of weapons or anything, so having to try to escape from zombies is really tiresome. They seem to eventually give up if you run far enough away, though, which is nice.

Do you know by any chance if rain coats actually protect you from the rain? Because if not, those orange rain coats are good for nothing except making you easy to spot.

Yeah, like they'd slosh around or something. Ew.

I guarantee, this is a stupid question, but I'm still new, so bare with me. Anyway, I had an anti-stab vest, and I checked at one point through my inventory to see if everything was okay after an attack from a zed. I get that the zombie itself could have ruined it, but I'm still able to wear it. So my question is this: Does the "ruined" status mean anything regarding clothing items? You're still able to keep it on your body, so does it still have any effect? Smorisson28 (or, RustyPancake)

"Giving someone a "gift" and then hacking them apart is for fun not self-defense, as well as to take their gear." I think you're playing the game wrong. If killing other players who are looking to have fun and help give feedback to the developers to make this game better for everyone who experiences it is enjoyable to you, then you're not helping anybody.

Well, no, that's actually the opposite of what I'm suggesting. What I'm suggesting is that you try to help a player out before you assume he's hostile and handcuff him and force him to drink disinfectant spray for whatever your reason is. And from what I've seen, a lot of the time, the players who torture other players are doing it because funny, not because that player is a legitimate threat. There's no reason to bully anybody. There's strength in numbers, so why don't you team up?

I'm not sure if I like your kind of player. Seems a bit aggressive. If we're supposed to try to make this game realistic, how willing would you really be to be that gruesome to another player. You're both in the same boat. And after all, you've all got a common enemy. What are you really losing if you give away a can opener and some beans and a spare melee weapon?

Yeah, that'd be really cool. I like the spear idea. Maybe it snaps in half after a few hits and you're left with two wooden sticks, you know? I like the pocket knife idea, too. I like the idea of using your crappy knife as a can opener. Definitely would give people a better chance of being able to eat if they get off the coast right away. And you should *definitely* be able to get wooden sticks by cutting branches off of trees with those knives, too. Better chance of making a splint, and better than crawling to the nearest town and looking around for morphine for hours and hours.

Well, sure, but wouldn't it be to your advantage to try and be friendly, first? So that if they're truly a friendly, you're golden?

But that's mean!

Alright, hey, thanks! Alright, so now I can vote properly. I think it's not a big deal. The repetitiveness does get old, but there are always struggles, right? So it's different every time.

I think before some sort of super-intense blackness is implemented in the game, the flashlights-shining-directly-through-walls problem (which I haven't actually experienced, but have heard about) should be fixed. Unless it has. (new player, here, not super familliar with night-time play.)

New player, here? I've heard of server-hopping, but what the hell is grinding? Can somebody explain it to me?
