That's a great choice. I was just thinking it was odd to be in desert camo in the forest. Bandits are pretty damn easy to spot at night compared to survivors.
I think having people stay in the game for 20 seconds or so when they logout with a pvp timer active would be amazing. It'd totally fix this problem. There have been countless times when someone logs to escape a death. Aside from just straight up pvp fights I once was scavenging, some guy sprints over with tons of zombies following him. I pull a walking dead and shoot his leg and run off, as they swarm him he logs and then they all come after me. Lame!
I'd love to see the occasional car or truck with only a damaged tire or something. It would open up vehicles to solo players and unlock more of the Chernarus map for everyone. Someone with a car would be a huge target for bandits/opportunistic scavengers so I don't think it'd really change the dynamics and someone could very easily turn a working car back into a wreck if they wanted to. I don't see careless players in a car for very long. It may give more purpose to players as it's another obviously valuable resource. Anyways, it's alpha, so what's the worst that could happen by testing its affect on gameplay?
This has been happening to me quite often on the 50 player servers, and judging from the global chat lots of other people are having the same issue. I've not tried EU servers but the 35 slot US servers seem to be better for some reason.
I think vehicles would make this a little less of an issue as we wouldn't all be made to feel like we need to hike an hour down the coast. Are those planned in the near future? Awesome mod, btw.
I usually avoid other players as I don't play this game with friends. Earlier today I was low on blood and ammo so I blasted some poor random scavenger who was milling about in a village (sorry dude) and was in much better shape for it. 8 mags and a bunch of food. It's all about surviving and if you aren't able to play with people you trust you'll be forced to play like this or you'll probably not have a very good time of things.
