Zhivago

Changing the server to 100 players is a huge mistake. The game is not only going to lag terribly for everyone, the server will be a gigantic hacker magnet if it ever reaches even close to its full capacity. People using the nuke hack look for largely populated servers. Really disappointed if this change is permanent, this server was by far one of the best when capacity was only 50.

Awesome! So just to reiterate, it will be going up tonight? Been waiting an hour :D Love your server.

Any reason the server is offline?

No. Why?

And as we all know alpha is the time in the development cycle where you need to avoid any and all suggestions. Instead you must look on with complete passivity until release' date=' where you are then required to immediately start complaining about the bad things that has carried over from alpha because noone called them out. [/quote'] Could you please stop being conscendencing? It makes you sound like a A-hole with superiority complex. :D Because the guy who is yelling 'holy christ people alpha alpha alpha' like we're all oblivious to the fact totally isn't being condescending at all. Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight. I really wish people would drop this fanboy crap, it's getting really annoying.

I just want to repost this since the other thread is bugged or something (Today 12:31 AM)rocket Wrote: The zombies in this aren't zombies. They are infected people. Personally I prefer 28 days/months later as I find this more terrifying and believable, hence why it is like this in game. As I said in an interview, I have a lifecycle developed for the infected people that will result in some of them being slower than others (malnutritioned) but that would be the exception rather than rule. I agree wholeheartedly with them being fast, but wouldn't it make sense to nerf the speed just a little bit? I'm not talking about shambler speed, I'm just talking 'not usain bolt 24/7' speed. Their speed really is quite ridiculous when you consider their acceleration, the way they zigzag, and their bugginess in general. Instead of being scared, I'm just frustrated when I have to deal with zombies. I never know when one is going to pop out of a wall and one-shot KO me. My 2 cents. And to any rocket fanboys, please save your breath, I know what you're going to say. 'You're just a carebear'. Well, if you weren't parroting that term, maybe you'd know what it actually means and where it came from. You aren't a carebear if you don't like broken game mechanics, and zombies are definitely a broken mechanic right now in the current state of the alpha, and should be fixed accordingly.

Less zeds until they can fix their pathing and make them less buggy in general. New weapons. New loot. Multiple character support.

You have to be a pretty lame douchebag to farm gear on a completely safe server and then use it in a public one. Just sayin.

I've heard if anything like this occurs you should disconnect/connect immediately. Dunno for sure though.

Oh god, I totally forgot about the time i did that. THAT DAMN BUTTON SHOULD NOT EXIST

Spawning underneath a house. When I tried to crawl out, my legs broke and I bled out instantly. Probably the dumbest one. That or firing an enfield in a town, but everyone has done that once.

This is a necessary change, but I don't think it'll happen for a long while, since it isn't something that can be fixed in a short amount of time. One short term solution to the erratic movement would be a slight speed nerf (I don't mean make them into shamblers, just...not olympic sprinters).

+1

Little disappointed there won't be a *small* nerf to zombie numbers since they're still usain bolt juggernauts at the moment, but I will gladly take the respawn change.
