Hello, I hope it is ok that I do not start a new thread for every question? I found an oil barrel and hid it. However, it is badly damaged. Only 4% remain. Can I put my things in it without any concerns? Or should I better find a new barrel? Do the barrels age with time? On my tour, the constant rain forced me to take shelter in trees. So I ended up in a dense forest, where I accidentally discovered the base of the two players. A car surrounded by camouflage nets. There are always surprises. Excuse me, I only took a water bottle and a sewing kit for my worn-out jeans!

Hello, here I want to show how dark it can get without moonlight. I took three screenshots. I do not use light, because it still seems bright enough to me in moonlight. When I took the picture it was cloudy. Meanwhile I found a 1PN51 in the oil barrel of another player and in a car there was actually an NVG 🙂 Late sunset At midnight. Impossible to see a player. Same area. I could easily spot two players in 600 m distance running across a field. Obviously I use the same routes as the other players. The two players I saw with the night vision device must have been the same players from yesterday who shot me (same time) The players were on the way to their oil barrel 🙂

It was really dark because there was no moon shining. I could not even see bales of straw on the big field. Only my compass, a few stars and the edges of tree tops for orientation. I am for banishing the night vision devices. The nights are short and most of the time they are relatively brightly illuminated by the moon. If someone wants to go hunting in the night, he should use the moon nights. But there must be a chance to be able to bring equipment from one place to another. Dark nights for a breather, so to speak.

Are there any night vision goggles in the game? I died again with all my equipment. In the middle of the night, completely dark, I had to walk across a field. Then I hear someone running from behind again. Dead. It's not the loss of the equipment that upsets me, but the loss of the time I spent getting it all together. The players always come from behind...

When is a bear trap removed? The oil barrel was open and the bear trap was gone. Someone was back. Is the trap removed the moment you leave the server? Unfortunately, I can't tell if the player fell into the trap. In the meantime I found the usg-45 and after a few hours on a military site I also found the magazine for it. I actually move much more cautiously now. After I found the magazine, it started raining again and I had to wait. I wanted to go back to my "home location". Finally the rain stopped and I could start walking. But then suddenly the howling of wolves! My forearms got cold immediately! I am so scared! I play with a 5.1 surround sound system and it sounds damn realistic. I need a break ...

I have found a more peaceful place with much less shooting and wolves (same 60 player server). Now I can hear more species of birds, even the chirping of my favourite summer bird is there and at night owls in the forest. It would be nice if you could watch the birds with binoculars 😉 I like to stalk around in the landscape and listen to the sounds of nature, but always with some danger in the neck. Like yesterday: I wanted to run to my old oil barrel to get things. It would have taken maybe 4 hours (btw. where are the bicycles?). When I wanted to start walking, it started to rain. So I had to wait first. The rain lasted about an hour! I can't know that before. It could have been just a shower. Then halfway through my tour I discovered a military installation. I decided to explore it. I had to overcome certain dangers, but I happened to find the magazine there that I had been looking for a long time. I had already put the weapon for it in the new oil barrel (sg5-k). I changed my plan and walked back to my new oil barrel, which again took about an hour. Exactly in the moment when I put the gun and the magazine together at the oil barrel, I heard the quick steps of a player behind me. Shot and dead. I had no chance. He must have seen me running into the bushes from a distance. Pretty annoying! Meanwhile I found a bear trap and installed it at the oil barrel. I hope he comes back to look into the oil barrel again and breaks his bones! 🙂

I will deinstall the game. I was in the deep forest far away from cities or roads surroundes by many trees and plants. I roasted meat over the fire. After I finished, I watched the fire cross-legged in a relaxed mode. Suddenly the frame rate has dropped dramatically. I got up to check if it's a bug. Then the shot was fired. Dead. It must have been a hacker (on an official server). Like in the past, a player suddenly appears out of nowhere, invisible. Same reason I stopped playing this game five years ago. Too bad game developers aren't able to get a handle on the cheater problem.

Could it be that the fishing has a bug? I can't put a worm on a hook. So I hold the rod in my hand and put the worm on the fishing hook (combine), but the rectangle remains red and no worm appears on the fishing hook. If I fish anyway, I obviously risk ruining the fishhook. I held 5 minutes the fishing button, but nothing happened. Am I only allowed to fish at certain times (daytime)?

Yeah, you can also do this with a knife. You just have to look really down. When I killed a zombie, it fell down in front of me and I looked down. It looked like I was cutting the worms out of the zombie, not digging them out of the ground.

I ve seen servers just for deathmatch. I play on a low ping server for 60 players, persistant on and first-person view only. The server is most of the time busy, I have to wait in a queue at the beginning. May be the deathmatch people use these servers for target practice 🙂 One question: where do I find worms for fishing? With my last character I was able to cut worms out of zombies. But now I cant find a zombie with worms any more!

Ok, I just died and lost everything. I was just at one of my oil barrels exchanging objects. A guy approached me from behind. I just heard the gun go off and then this loud bang. It took a week to get a map, compass, binoculars, camping stove, etc. together. And I had to walk around the places for many hours every day. Well, bad luck, that's the game. But I can't agree that it feels good to have to start all over again 🙂

Hi, thanks for the answers, by the way. You say that it's not good to get attached to the equipment because it might get lost at some point. But the game would be of no interest to me if I didn't try to keep my stuff together for survival. So right now I have two oil barrels in different places as a backup. For the road I keep rather rare items in my backpack. If I have to escape in an emergency, I try to throw the backpack away unseen so that I can continue running. If I get killed, I can later try to find the backpack again with a little luck. I have six hours time for that. Recently in an emergency situation I did not even think about the backpack anymore. On the way to an abandoned city ruin I suddenly heard the howling of wolves. I thought: wow, that sounds pretty scary. Then I saw a wolf and watched from a tree where it was heading. Then I was already surrounded by several wolves who attacked me tactically. Eventually I was so hurt that I fainted. I woke up again shortly and would have had some time to throw the backpack off, but I was overwhelmed by the situation that the wolves will eat me. It ran cold across my back. About 2 hours later I came back to the same place. I only heard a few flies there. Probably the wolves had eaten my corpse completely and the backpack with it 🙂

Yeah, I was confused. I just logged back on to the server. I'm still alive. I immediately ran into the bushes to avoid being seen. It was raining hard, and I had to run quickly to a small wooden hut. There were also already many zombies present, so that I had to sneak to the hut, because I didn't want a fight. I closed the door behind me. My protective vest and my sweater were demolished by the shots! While I was busy repairing them with the sewing kit, I suddenly heard footsteps. A player ran to this hut and I could hear his breath. If he had opened the door, he could have easily killed me. But then he ran towards a larger tool shed. I wonder if that was the sniper who had been waiting for me all this time and thought I had run to the next building? It's very suspicious that a player was with me so quickly. Lucky for me. I'm trying to survive as a hiker. Therefore I collect rare items and put them into a oil barrel to discover the possibilities of using them. I'm not interested in weapons. I only carry a pistol for self-defense. I can't stand those militant psychopaths who shoot at everything that is making a move 🙂 Maybe this sniper saw that I had a binocular ...
