I was on top of a building and two guys came up. I had a motorcycle helmet and that was it. They started trying to punch me and I was able to punch them both to death 2v1.

This is not the answer either. I don't feel like i need to explain why.

And the best spawn chance ( i believe) is at a crashed helicopter. But good luck finding that :p

Let me explain the problem for the uninitiated. Server hoppers are people that go to a place with good loot and just join different servers trying to get different items. They log in, grab loot, and log out to another server. This is irritating as it makes fortifying a building pointless, it makes it hard to find loot in certain spots without server hopping yourself (seriously... you'll find nothing but empty cans some places, even though you watch to make sure no one is going in or out for a long time) The DC'er is a player who gets into a jam (by zombies or from other players) and just disconnect. They either wait a while to join back or they join a different server. So my question... is there anything being done to address this? Just curious because currently, this is the biggest problem in the game right now.

awesome!!

As of patch... 1.7.1.5 stealth is basically the exact same as 1.7. Are you sure you didn't play 1.7.1.4? It was just hotfixed back.

I'd say it's pretty intense? What's the longest you've lasted? And if you have lasted forever... maybe you should stop camping the airfield and go to elektro and have some fun. But... I think that the zombies could be turned up a bit... I mean not in the way that they were in the previous hotfix where they had super hearing. Look' date=' if proning actually got you anywhere, I wouldn't be complaining. Now if you want my personal opinion, I think the Mak was a bit too strong a starting weapon. I ain't complaining about the lack of food or water bottles either. I'm just complaining bout the fact that after you die, there ain't much left to do cept sit on your hands. Go prone? Zombie spots you and kills you. Make a run for it? No shit you get killed. Go to a barn? Either spook a zombie or say hello to a bandit. Rinse and repeat. If the survivors started out with something that just let them defend themselves against a single zombie - like a BB-gun or something, absolute junk weapon - that'd eliminate my complaint entirely and I could join you guys in praising this patch. Cause there's a lot to be praised. Too bad the game is unplayable as is. [/quote'] Hmmm, not in my opinion... Honestly... on a full 50 man server.. i've been able to crouch walk through Elektro and come out with a lee enfield, makarov, map, knife, and plenty of food and drink. They just had 13,000 concurrent players a few nights ago... it's definitely "playable" Hell, even when I have a decent weapon, a lot of the times I don't ever have to shoot zombies... crouch walking/prone is pretty easy to pull off.

I like how it currently is... I mean.. that's how an apocolypse should be right? Shouldn't there be haphazard defenses erected everywhere? Maybe make tools slightly less rare.

Necessary? Nothing is actually necessary... but all of it adds to the realism/experience.

Drinking all of this soda and eating all of these beans should make you have to shit like an elephant at the circus. I think players should have to pee and poop every so often. I just kinda thought about this when I heard the rain turn on and I thought someone was taking a piss behind a tree for a second. This would add some comic relief in such a serious game... like if someone's meter is about to go off during a gun battle and they shit themselves. Or you catch someone taking a piss and shoot them. I'm not weird and haven't been thinking about this for a long time... it just kind of came to me as I was eating some beans. Comments?

This has been the most fun patch since I've started playing ( a little before 1.7). There aren't that many bugs in this patch and performance has gone way up. No weapon start is intense but no impossible. Just find a barn and get a winchester/doublebarrel/lee enfield. I like that people are less likely to go guns blazing everywhere... because even having food or drink is something to lose now. Even when just having a makarov... I don't want to die. Melee weapons are a nice touch and flashlight in the tool belt is great! I'm actually enjoying night time servers with at least a flashlight. All in all, I'd say that Rocket has finally nailed down 1.7.1 and it's a lot of fun to play again. (hasn't been stable since 1.7) This thread might seem pointless, but I'm just posting to put some praise up on the forums. Too much whining and not enough praise for such an epic mod. I think it's going in the right direction.
