Why do people moan about being killed at the 'start' ?? You've lost nothing so just respawn and shut up crying.

Surprised at the hostility and trolling in this thread. Sure the grammar is bad and claiming its a conspiracy theory is far-fetched, but it still leads us to an interesting topic... The psychology of players and how it has evolved through patchs. What I also find interesting is players actions in different servers. I have never been shot at in a canadian server. On a US server its normal for me to be shot at by players. On a russian server, everyone I have encountered has either been a hacker or shoot on sight...scary stuff.

There will always be hackers in every game, unfortunately because of the way this mod is played, getting killed by a hacker is surely more painful then the majority of other games. But... You've just gotta man up and get on with it. Crying will not return your items and bitching will not do yourself any favours.

Short and sweet... Zombies are close to impossible to shoot when they aggro...this is my opinion why: 1. You cannot anticipate their movements...If i aggro a zombie i'd expect it to run directly at me (or around obstacles in a direct route towards me). Currently they like to do some sort of a 50meter sprint away from me in a random direction, followed by a scenic country sprint around me and then run towards me.......the movement of a zombie makes no sense. 2. Run speed.....the game prides itself on realism yet there is no way a zombie could run faster then Usain Bolt. Just no. Tone down the speed, please. Fixing points 1 and 2 will mean zombies could be shot if they aggro onto you (without being 1 yard away) This should mean that less people will be bothered above sight/hearing buffs by zombies (As zombies can actually be shot at distance, if aggroed). Currently i have seen mass moaning about the buff they have received in patch 1.7.2...this patch went live a few hours ago, so i can only anticipate there will be a hotfix or a ton of people will stop playing until the next update. I have a strong opinion, please do not flame me for posting this suggestion.

So from the sounds of things the game has returned to a rather unplayable state.... If zombies weren't so impossible to hit while running/when they aggro on you, the zombie sight/hearing buff wouldn't be a problem. But there remains two initial factors that make shooting zombies close to impossible: 1. You cannot anticipate their movements (zombies should run directly at you...not zigzag all over the place). 2. They run extremely fast, combine this with point 1 and it makes shooting them very hard/pointless Fix the movement.

Hi. You must be new here.

Also having this exact same issue........no solution it seems :S

Great idea, less crap that no-one reads in this sub-forum then!

I died from the large explosion thing, and so did everyone on the server...its when a hacker sets off a nuke effect because their penis fell off in real life and they have no friends.

to the OP, nice thoughts and effort. However, I think that would actually create more pvp. What needs to be done is not adding more items and not making them rare. But infact, making items harder to acquire in terms of dodging zombies. At the moment you can solo farm all items to survive very easy. If we make it so that large buildings can only be farmed coop...that would encourage coop play. Lonewolves can still farm houses/shacks/barns etc. Coop play needs to be encouraged, but not through making items rare.

To the OP. This is why melee weapons have been introduced. To bridge the gap between being useless and being able to survive as a new player. The hatchets are ri[/align]fe along the coast.

Your tears. They are...delicious.

Who uses that notation? I thought metric units notations were pretty standard and I have always km^2 defined "square kilometers." (See my screenshot above). Nope! what a noob go back to basic math idiot. Youre fuckign dumb as dog shit you know that? You are probably a no life loser geek with no job or friends you fucking loser. Yeah get mad pussy. inb4 cry Lmao to this response -_-

I've also been mercy to that, shot my winchester once in a barn, ended up killing another 16. Used all my ammo...wouldn't be so bad if the zombies were slow, but chain pulling them when they seemingly run 30mph and walk through walls is ridiculous. You have to wait till they are in front of you to shoot them.
