Seriously now... the zombie's field of view and hearing is getting fixed on 1.7.1.5 so just wait.

wait... what kind of hacks are you talking about? I've been around toons of servers and in none of those have i seen some kind of hack like that. What exactly does it (if it even is a hack).

I've been thinking for some time right now, what if we could take the empty tin cans wich are so common around and use then for throwing? The idea is to use the sound they produce upon hitting the ground to lure zombies towards it, many movies and even other game used this idea, get an object and throw it to get attention away from you. Not sure if this idea was alredy suggested, but felt like commenting.

Yes' date=' tins can break hospital glass without any noise to nearby zeds. Tested by myself. :) [/quote'] Learning something new everyday...

You need both, arma 2 and OA to play the mod, but it's not that expensive, 30$ for both of then, half the price of a new game.

Only male. Also i'm male as well.

lol there was no flame at all, in fact, most people answered in a respectful manner. but... if tin cans can break hospital windows that would make then even more valuable.

Actually tought this was an english tread e.e. Please try to make an effort to use english in this forum, it's what everyone here mostly uses.

lol yeah... it gets kind of annoying, one time i had an hatchet with me, and saw someone running away from loads of zombies, i said trough voice comm "get inside i can help you kill those zombies". He instead runs around the other side, and dosn't respond, i close the door, he later comes after luring the zombies to me and having me kill then, opens the door, and shots me for no reason and i die... hoping the shots atracted more zombies on him and he died horribly XP

Nice, too bad i'm working atm so i'll have to wait before it test it...

+1 I love the idea of knowing what a certain person wich i found has gone trough before his life ended. But in order for everyone to be able to read it, maybe the diary couldn't be picked up, it would give you the option to take the diary's information wich you can later acess in some kind of "notes" option. That way, everyone that comes across the body will be able to read it.

Wow, it's alpha, you could always wait, the zombies are getting fixed in 1.7.1.5's hotfix. So go outside or wait playing something else while it gets fixed, or if you can't wait, go back to 1.6, loads of servers are still on 1.6

Fear, loneliness, boredom. People will want to have someone to trust, in case a disaster like this happens, going around mudering everyone will only ensure your own death in the long run if that was real life. Not to mention, people will have the will to try and recreate communities, of course, ammong the people they think they can trust, strangers would be dealt with extreme care, if not violence. Alone, i highly doubt someone would go around killing every possible companion you find, unless he's a phycopath.

Maybe it could be used like this, while you have an radio equiped your chat message distance increases drastically, and you can pick up chat conversations from longer distances.

Oh i see o.O, well i feel extremely dumb now... ignore this tread.

If everyone, stoped being paranoid and started to trust each other that would be a problem but that's very difficult and there's always that one guy that claims he's roleplaying a bad guy (wich dosn't really make sense in a zombie appocalipse, why would you kill everyone? Surely you want your kind to go extinct), or some dude who likes to rack up kill points because he thinks it showcases skill.

So, i was playing yesterday just fine, log out in the hill up on electro... loaded with stuff, i log in today, i'm in the debug forest. I say "ok", and repaswn, i appear seconds later inside the forest again, some guy speaks random numbers, i'm gearless, abort, and come back... all my stuff is back and i see my own dead body for me to loot again... tried to kill myself another 10 times NOTHING. It's not the server, i tried to kill myself in different ones, not sure if any of these items is bugged so here's what i have on me. AKM, map, clock, Makarov, canned good and empty bottle of water along with soda. Does anyone know a way out of this? I even deleted my profile but nothing... Can anyone here at least give me way to kill myself...

you do realise there's an active tread about the same topic, if not almost the same title as yours right? No point in making another one...

Oh yeah... let's ban all the people who play older versions, wich are the minority... *sarcasm* If i wasn't supposed to have fun, meaning, the game was boring as shit to test, i wouldn't even touch... it's just retarded to think you can't have fun testing something, not to mention, for free. How about we just let then do what they want? There's enough forum users here who play the updated version.

If there was no shoting, maybe it was an hatchet? Those things are OP XD

lol, it'd be funny if zombies could wield weapons... imagine a priest wielding a schythe... scary.

And? Why would you log off in such a dangerous place? If someone spawned on my face i would have killed him too, also, did you create this to try and get your stuff back? Poor guy... it's probably all looted alredy.

So i was playing just fine yesterday, found myself a map, and camo suit as noticable loot (and AKM), now i try to play today, my character is stuck on the debug area of the game, i tought it was no trouble to die and start again so i respawn, but when i abort and come back, my character is back the way he was before, all gear on him. Tried again another 3 times nothing. What the hell is going on? I even deleted my profile and created a new one, nothing happened... is this the camo suit glitch i've read about in 1.7.1.4? Just looking into the fact if this is a bug related to the camo suit or not, if so, i'll report this to the bug section, but, i would like some confirmation first.

I'm loving this mod, it hasn't been a week yet of me playing this, but it's enough for me to love it, and i just went out of possibly the most immersive situation i've ever found myself into. Having spawned, i noticed i was pretty near Electro, near the boat at the shore, i didn't notice before entering but i was on a hardcore server. Not really my cup of tea, but i tought "well i can't go third person, but neither can the people here... i'll give it a shot". Found a house, but when i entered i heard flies... the kind you hear when there's a dead player around. I began to get worried, thinking there might be someone inside, but not that much since i had nothing useful on me atm, checked inside, nobody, looted the corpse and to my surprise he was packed, but he didn't have any guns on him, so surely it must have been a zombie... or a really mean spirited bandit who dosn't even loot his victims. Also found a cammo gear inside. Things go down the shitter as i enter the next building, because zombies hear me, and i start to run for it, i enter the bulding and find an hatchet, wich i use to hack away the ones that followed me (i might add, the hatchet is freaking OP). Shots were all over the city, makarov shots, and a really heavy shotgun to the other side... and the fire station is pretty near me along with the church, 2 very prominent player locations around... i decided to avoid both until i could get a good look around and make sure there was nobody in then. To my surprise, it was empty, and i found an MP414, and an AKM, both with 2 clips on then, took the AKM and got to the rooftop to look around the city with some binoculars i found... And that's when noobish side screwed things up pretty badly for me. I was looking around, went back to the third floor, but, forgeting that i was crouched, i try to look sideways pressing E, and i fall to the second floor... i tought i was done for, but luckily i woke up with 5140 blood on me... i could hear almost nothing, worse, i broke my leg and had no morphine. Tought about getting to the medical station... but the gunshots were getting more intense, i took the risk tough. Jumping ahead, i find a map inside a house, but when i get near the hospital i notice all the windows are broken, when suddenly i faintly hear shots and loads of zombies rush the other way, i keep still afraid they might see me. At this point i was completely paranoid, i was ready to unload my AKM on whoever came close to me, especially because i was near the big building near the hospital where people usually like to camp and snipe. I take a risk and cross the road, i get inside, to my shock almost everything was looted, problably loads of people took advantage of this place. Getting desperate at this point, i start to lose hope but i find some morphine. Jumping to the end (this is alredy long enough), i get into another bulding, more gunshots really close, super paranoid waiting inside the building for somoene to show himself in the corridor, escaped, and made my way to the hill and north... This was without a doubt the most intense situation i was ever been in a video game, at points i was actually sweating a bit. Hope i get into more situations like this in future plays.
