It is pointless now to do stealth if you are at a hunting tower anywhere near a town. There are the usual three to four, no problem, Shoot one already and the exponential ensures that out of the 200 spawned in the town seemingly 10% are aggroed and come like rockets from everywhere. But it also happened in the wilderness. Farthest NW. Broke everything closing a toilet door had to do morphine and bandage and then that aggroed one, I had to shoot and then 20 came... while when I looked around before there were only 3. http://dayzdb.com/map#5.016.034 Grid 03:01 I had cleared out the hunting stands before, What I would expect in an empty area is to be able to scan the vicinity clear out all threats and maybe miss one or two, not breaking all bones on closing a door and then being mobbed my newly spawned zeds or wherever they came from. Two chars under 1.7.2, I could gear up, but the mobbing makes it pointless. It;s a game of luck. Leaves me more with the, can't be arsed again feeling. :rolleyes: Magically appearing hordes of zeds are unrealistic .. Could you handle them? probably. do I want to? No. Since there is no end point, once I managed to gear up I can only hang around maybe shoot some people. Ultimately the mods will want to make you grief, once you have a hunting knife matches and wood and a water bottle and could survive in the wood, you are there. Maybe occasionally look for ammo to be able to hunt again. A bear trap, just adds more possibilities to grief, where are the coop options, more building something like a fort would be good. The new Zed detection just makes it a bit harder to get to the point where you start to grief other players cause just running around in the woods hunting and picking up water is boring. And since it is alpha I am mentioning this ... :D

got mobbed twice... with two characters. Shot 10 thne next ten did quque up and didn't even get down with Lee Enfield close contact breast shots.. Could collect Gear as before, also with prone but exponential really seems to mean exponential distance. So zeds ages away seems to see you suddenly randomly. The ARMA hit model isn't built for mobbing. I played about 25 characters, 2 in the new patch. It seems more luck now than skill in patience and crouching. Best way to survive, don't log on ;)

Exponential probability seems to mean one shot alerts exponentially also loads of infected. I also don't get exponentially, I mean exponentially to a probability of 1? Or exponential to a probability of + inf? Something that's asymptotic on 1 seems better, it feels like + inf.

Not so sure about the new Infected spawning. Was on a hunting tower. Had to shoot one and then 20 arrived. I could shoot 10 and then I was mobbed by more and more. The ARMA hit model also sucks. I shoot and they are right in front of me queuing. No effect with a Lee Enfield full body hit. Also lost one char to a toilet door closing breaking both arms and legs. Although I had morphine, I was again mobbed.

Had a wee play. The new Zombie detections gonna cost a lot of bullets.. Starting new will be hell ... :D:P Just like the British "summer". :@

Can please someone mention that this mod is alpha?:D Alpha α Alpha α Alpha α Alpha α Alpha α Alpha α Alpha α αααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααα αααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααα αααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααααα

First one I killed I felt guilty. Just killed two on the NW airfield. One spawned a meter before me. Now I am glad it wasn't me. :D And I got the water bottle I needed. Anyone with a gun has to die ... only way to survive. :heart:

Zombies hitting through walls and props are also very annoying.

In real life there would a reward for team work. In real life the zombies would become less. There would also not be a constant influx of new unarmed people on their own. The world would also be persistent. As it stands I now hunt hunters. :P Vigilante justice, let's crush the oppressors. :D It would be good to be able to mortality wound them and still take their gear. Wounded just seems to give the option to heal. I want them to suffer and crawl along. ;)

I tried this now 20 times and never get a useable weapon. Once i found a crowbar O joy, I look on the forum it says hit reload "r" Nothing whatsoever happens regarding the crowbar, but I start throwing flares.. Obviously I was "delighted" that I was immediately mobbed by Zs ... I escape throwing flares, flares flares... I also found a hatchet. Did do ef all, besides chopping useless wood at that stage. I tried to load it as a weapon. Nothing. Then some guy dies in front of me with a shotgun. Flies are buzzing, but the body is nowhere to be seen. I also see no point in having no weapon in the beginning. Why would I want to team up with anybody that would just draw more Zombies. (this was mentioned as a reason to give you no weapons in the beginning in a WTF video). Can we noobs please get a weapon in the beginning until the weapons you find actually work.. :) Find an AKM, no ammo. Find ammo no weapon. Find a crowbar doesn't work, find a hatchet, doesn't work. Thirsty doesn't seem to do anything near a well. Axes, don't work. I am in the military hospital and there are 7 Aks and I can't pick none up.. Totally cool making it hard, but if the weapons don't work it;s pointless sneaking for 20 minutes and then run into a bug. Please give noobs a weapon until the worst is ironed out. And yes the crowbar was in the primary weapons slot..

Thanks I try that next time with the crowbar But I couldn't move the hatchet. It was in the belt.
