HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA yeah right.

I am also in support of this quick fix. Do it, I haven't been able to play long enough to find a tent, let alone loot someone else's. Who cares either way? Id rather play a massively unbalanced game then just not play at all. You guys are putting shit in the game like 100 size radio bases with zero functional purpose, but you cant fix base issues.

Just had a pretty nice 30 minute play session, other than finding all sorts of mad gear, and then succumbing to some illness that wasn't explained. Randomly died after finding an M4, USG45, and a full soviet uniform. Then all of a sudden my character, the dead one mind you, is locked and I can't start another. Guess ill give it another month. Worst money ive ever spent.

Give us cars too, no matter how broken the mechanics are, I want randomly exploding cars and wormhole trees that send my flying 20km when I bump into them.

Well you obviously don't know how I feel, as I have the izurvive map and wasn't even making that point. I've made it to all these points and farther, we are saying that it's taking away enjoyment from the rest of this sprawling game by focusing on these minor details that are obviously set wrong and need to be corrected. If you are going to have a game that puts so much detail into being a "realistic" survival game, then start with the basics. If I take one punch from someone, I shouldn't need to bandage up, and I certainly wouldn't bleed out from it. I feel stats like that would be easy to tweak and send out and update, give us ten more minutes of life and see if that makes more people happy, or more people talking about it negatively. I wish they would just make it a requirement that you need a microphone to play. I ran up on some guy who didn't have a mic, and ended up killing him because there wasn't anything else to do. Sorry, if you got killed by an asian dude in a police jacket and a hard hat with a lead pipe. That was me. I lied, sorry about that. Sounds like your fight was a little more balanced, but again a mic requirement probably would have made you think "Hey he's not saying anything, maybe I should go." Instead of having to decide if its because they just don't own one or... If it's muted or they're just not talking, that's a strategy, but it would be a more realized one if you had to have the capacity to talk.

I will say that the game is getting a little better the more I play it, but the eat drink situation is ridiculous. It should be as realistic as they want it, because thats easy to work with. In a true apocalyptic situation, I feel like you would easily find enough materials, such as three plastic bottles, a pot, a water source, and fire making tools. Boom, challenging, but doable. You consume more water running around with a heavy pack then you do walking down a shaded trail with a rucksack, there should be no x = time you need to eat rule, it should be moderately based around your weight vs activity level vs quality of food. I like that there is no map, and you have to consult your own map. If the devs included an in game map, it should be a localized pickup item. I love the compass, I wish it was easier to read though, or am I not looking at it right? The best I can figure is to open it, hold it open, and then zoom in, and you can just barely see the red of the needle. There def needs to be cars and bases added soon, that is a major allure of the game. Specific RP servers would be nice too. It's fun to just have a FFA map where its TRUST NO ONE, but it would be cool to develop communities and localized storylines, and the ability to report / instaban with majority vote players that come to grief.

Also your chances of washing up on a foreign shore, spotting a mushroom. Saying to yourself, "Wow, this looks so PRISTINE and RAW!" And proceeding to eat the mushroom with zero consequences is pretty much impossible. If you're going to put mushrooms in as a wild food source, put 10 deadly ones in for every 1 edible one. Please don't eat wild mushrooms kids.

That's the whole point of this game. Sure, I can see it being a few hours or so to make the mechanic relevant to the game, im not going to play for two weeks and forget to eat in game, thats stupid. What's really fucking stupid is that I need water every 15 minutes, and I can run up a whole mountain with a fully loaded pack and not suffer any consequences other then low stamina and a SUPER annoying breathing sound.

Having played for a few days, here are some notes on food and drink realism. It takes ~2 weeks to starve to death if you are a healthy able bodied person. Not 30 minutes. You can die from thirst in 3-4 days. Sure this all changes based on environment, activity level, etc etc, but not fucking 30 minutes. You guys need to fix this mechanic, it sucks, is completely unrealistic, and has completely turned me off the game. I want to run around looking for loot and fun shit, not having to worry about killing a chicken, or searching for cans of food. Hell, you can peel pine bark and boil it if you're really starving. It's practically impossible to starve unless you are completely incompetent, or in a desert environment (and even then it's pretty hard) Water on the other hand is also pretty bad. If I am carrying around a 90L pack, with 3 long guns, two hatchets, an axe and a pistol, plus whatever else I find... that's a heavy damn bag. I would be going so slow, and I would be drinking water all the time. This game seems to be pretty forgiving with water sources. I've heard you can get sick, but I have been drinking out of lots of bad water, and have yet to have it effect me (probably because I can't play long enough) Again, I can tell you from experience, you are taking a real risk drinking wild water at below 9-10k ft above sea level. If you do drink some nasty shit, you can feel it pretty fast, and can be deathly ill in a few hours. Building a fire is a real chore too. Again, anyone who's spent some time in the woods, especially in this climate that we are supposed to be playing in, should know its damn easy to scrape some shit together off the ground and start it on fire. Searching for sticks, bark, and crafting a firestarter is the "textbook" way of doing things, but isn't it like the 90s-00s in this game? Did the soviet's not have lighters? I get that you can't put a "scrape the ground and light a fire" button, but damn, its way easier to start a fire than you make it. Just some thoughts, I'm def putting this game down for a few days. Two friends at work asked me if they should buy it so we could all play and I laughed and told them to wait. You guys are losing business.

How about: server sorting and favoriting that works, also servers that work party chat and the ability to at least invite friends/party to same server, even if you dont spawn together. Do all the characters smoke? Who breathes that hard and that heavy after running 20 feet, they aren't even American. I mean, really just a decently running game would be nice, there is GP and then there is whatever DayZ GP is supposed to be.

I just don't get the culture of pushing something out before it's finished. BACK IN MY DAY THEY FINISHED GAMES BEFORE THEY CHARGED YA MONEY FOR EM! You new fangled millennials and your absolute disregard for money's value/function. This is a great PC title, are you guys proud of what you have shat out for us xbox users? You all got together in a room and spent 50 minutes connecting to a lobby, then spent 10 minutes playing before dropping out and said "Yeah, f**k yeah guys its READY." You all should be ashamed of yourselves. How much is the season pass going to be?

They probably are at dinner with Bluehole, "Those idiots paid FOURTY for our game preview!"
