I joined "Cool Server - Vilayer" spawned checked the server list and there were 4 members of some clan. I ran about 10 feet through some trees and was kicked. I waited about 90 seconds and tried to join another server I play on quite a bit with about 10 players online, turns out my character was dead. So either they saw me zone in kicked me and killed me. Or you can lose your character when kicked... Either way f those guys.

Found about 9 Aug's no M4's or UMP.

Getting out of a V3S the first thing I do is lay down in the grass/trees where I stop and try to pull my gun out. 20 seconds pass and the gun still won't come out so I get up and can't get into the v3s so I run to a nearby shed and I'm able to loot but still can't pull out my gun. Then I hear a hail a bullets miss effects and "you are dead". Who knows to the other guy maybe I was dead before I left the truck... That would have been better.

The worst is when it drops it on the ground and it vanishes. What's stupid is if you went to put something in a bag in real life, if it doesn't fit you're still holding it. If they don't want to reserve space when you draw your weapon they should at least prevent the item from being dropped. I also don't like the new bag system. You can't organize them into a proper order without dropping them on the ground and risking them vanishing. If they don't want to keep the old order for items they should let you move them around in the inventory screen.

I always put my most valuable items in the jacket. If I'm going to die, you're getting cans of beans from my backpack not an ACOG. It's very rare with full auto weapons that you live through getting shot in the chest.

.55 is the worst patch so far. I've played about 16 hours on it so far and I'm done until the next patch. - Loot is crazy buggered on persistent and non persistent servers. - I got one shot killed by a zombie when I had full health and a biker helmet on. My character was pretty fresh as well having maybe taken 5-6 hits in total over a couple hours. - Zombies stand outside buildings while you're inside dealing damage to you. - Zombies hit crazy fast, you can't hit them fast enough to not take damage and dealing them damage doesn't slow them down. They should react to being hit, sure there's a stumble animation they do which looks like they slow down for about 0.25 seconds. A grown man cleaving a zombie in the head with a pickaxe should drop it. The pickaxe would go through the skull no problem. No one is surviving that in real life. There's no skill involved with it all it's just tank them and hit them 5-6 times until they fall and replace all your destroyed gear. - If you drive a V3S do it very carefully. If you crash them even slightly by say running over a zombie you'll ruin your boots and pants. I recommend putting your boots and pants in your backpack. I didn't have my legs broken but it might be worth bringing a splint/morphine. - crash sites on persistent servers remain broken. non persistent seem to be good and the best source of gear at the moment. The 6-7 I found seemed to spawn appropriate items.

As always lead them inside then close the door as you leave.

Getting around isn't that hard. It's a small map. In a V3S you can get from one side to the other in like 10 minutes. I'm assuming they'll be adding more vehicles like cars, suv's. I'd like to see a couple usable boats spawn at the docks so you can get to the islands. They don't even have to be powered, like a canoes or sea kayaks so long as you could also stop rowing to shoot. I'd much rather see them add some large cargo/troop transport planes which have crashed. Imagine running through the woods and stumbling into hoard of 50 zombies wondering around a crash site littered with AK's, armour, ammunition. etc. Also why are there no broken down aircraft on the airfields? There should be dozens of aircraft parked/crashed on the runways. If it was the apocalypse, those sites would have been in chaos as people tried to leave.

I'd like to see them change the way players can get kicked from a public server. They should take the ability to kick users away and simply let admin's report hackers. If it's that bad, the admin can turn the server off instead of kicking 40 people because they don't know who they are. Not to mention the admin abuse out there. I had a fully kitted our character with an M4 and I was searching for an acog or rds. I was on a server with 6-7 other people in a V3S and I'm screaming through a field near green mountain when I see a player running towards me down the hill. Then everyone except one player (the admin) on the server gets kicked and when I logged back in my character had been killed. So when you kick people they still exist on the server for the logout timer... If players are kicked they need to at least make it instant. You vanish and are not left in game to be shot by dirty admins.

I don't like being KOS'd at NWAF either. So I stopped going there instead of bitching about it.

I hope some day they let us burn down buildings. Fire stations are #1 on my list.

Persistence is broken and they haven't implemented loot distribution yet. When you get tired of fighting players who are fully geared with M4's/Aug's and you've been running with a repeater or sks (if you can find bullets) you'll hop as well. Edit: I've pretty much given up on public persistence servers. I found a nice private shard with no persistence and a medium player base. So no hopping but loot actually spawns and the heli's aren't invisible.

Search for persistent off servers and hop onto them when the servers reset.

It goes the same speed on flat surfaces but up hill even a slight like 3% incline and the thing slows down. If you're trying to start on any kind of a hill, you're going to just crawl. It's kind of lame I get that semi's start off slow but we're talking just the truck with no cargo. With it's current in game power IRL the v3h wouldn't be able to tow anything up a hill.

That shotgun would be awesome if it fit in your bag.... It's not worth taking up the primary weapon slot unless you don't have another option.
