My first time playing was without a gun and it made the game intense/fun. You veterans have lost touch with the immersion of the game. You're all just about relying on your game/bug exploits and getting the best gears as fast as you can. Now you're complaining cause that's harder to do.

Very classy of you... *claps* ... well, this is as classy is it gets in this game isn't it?

ran into 2 players just a while ago. both friendly. helped out for a bit. nice experience.

Yeah, so far, from the posts that I have read, zombies are just a side problem to the bigger issue of facing other players, and for some reason, the players are happy with that. Isn't this a zombie survival sim? Not a PvP game with annoying zombies on the side. More zombies, harder zombies, etc. Force the players to play together instead avoiding and killing each other.

Wow, I just started to play the game yesterday and thought it was awesome. I thought it made sense that prone was the best way to sneak. In real life, crouching doesn't hide much. I thought for sure that the community would consist of a lot of hardcore players who love the survival aspect of it. I joined the forum and, low and behold, it's 90% whiny posters, with an unwarranted sense of entitlement, who want convenience more than anything. "I want guns on respawn!" boo hoo "Zombies can see me when I crouch!" boo hoo "It's too dark! I'm scared!" boo hoo

Thx. I just started today too. I spawned on a beach and didn't see anything but some hills, trees and a dock far away in my sight so I headed for it. When I finally got to the dock, I walked around the corner of a building and saw a dead body. I had the same feeling as you did. What killed him? I searched his body and found a flash light. There was a small village nearby so I went to search it, knowing that I needed food, water and weapons. As I approached, a zombie popped out of the side of the house. I ran inside a house and headed to the kitchen. I was trapped. I turned around and saw the zombie casually walking through the kitchen door. Suddenly, it darted towards me... and ate me. Loved it.

In a world with no consequences, there will be douchebags. This is what it'll probably be like in a real zombie apocalypse. people running around shooting other people for no reason. that's part of the survival.

It's zombie survival, not zombie killing. It's actually smarter not to try and mow down zombies with your limited ammo supply.

First time playing today and I had a blast. Once I figured out how to play the game, I survived for at least 2 hours at a time(pretty sure I'll get even better). Starting out without a gun is no problem.

First time player here. Never played the previous version with weapons at respawn. I didn't think spawning without a weapon was bad at all. Ironically, it "adds" a level of immersion to the game. I think veteran players are just too used to the convenience of spawning with a weapon.
