OK so first 1. im new 2. im good at fps/stealth games 3. all the man up, noob etc responses on this just show the players who are insecure about the size of their genitalia So i spawned for the first time after seeing youtube videos of the game and thought it had glitched.... no makarov and mags.... no food.... no water.... no defensive weapons of any kind. Apparently people didnt like how you could kill zombies at the start of the game, but so far in this running/re spawning simulator in four hours of play and some very sneaky crawling though a rather large town I have only found 1 weapon 1 hatchet which was glitchy at first and wouldn't equip. I had wondered if perhaps there was some kind of server difficulty setting i didn't know about. My questions: 1. how do you find starting guns/melees where are there places you can find guns without being chased by zombies? 2. IMPORTANT!! How can i spawn next to my friends who aren't noobs, are armed and know the game better than i do? 3.Do zombies chase you forever or is there a way to dupe them - when you inevitably get spotted? 4. why cant we spawn with hatchets or other melees ? since that would kind of minimise spawn killing as you could just run away from/kill them instead of being killed by the first player to find a weapon. Neway sorry for the tone, this game mod has proven to have a vertical learning curve now and im a bit fed up as i wanted to play with my friends, but without a weapon and/or any way of finding them/spawning near them Im now VERY frustrated

Ok so yourve jst spawned/respawned again and your trying to stealth into a town, youll inevitably get spotted and you have no weapon, so play this YAnkee sax as you run away from the horde armed only with a bandage and a flashlight

Im in if you can find me a weapon, sick of running away from zombies to the sound of yankee sax

So i bleed out the other day. id been runnign around on low blood for some time/a number of day and i kept cracking up at realism vs "hardcore". In the real world you regenerate blood, its impossible not to otherwise you wouldnt last 3 days. but id been running around on low bloods for several days looking for a blood pack. So with "realism" is it appropriate to add this feature into the game, it would be realistic but it wouldnt be "hardcore" liek the way the games apparently going ie spawning with nothing. So should this be added in? AH F*** a paper cut, thats 20 years of my life wasted

I mean on its on, your body does it without food hehe shame you cant eat raw meat has more iron in it= more blood

im new but sign me up, is 22 too young?

Hey Thanks guys for the responses it appears theres some valid stuff here. glitching the zeds behind fences and buildings works sometimes and lying down after i loose sight of them, then crawling away works pretty decent. Also learned that the smaller towns along the coast generally arent good places from weapons excludign the two main cities Thanks for the map, finally figured where i was and how far away my mates squad was so finally managed to meet up. Nice when people post constructively

This exactly, except sometimes im the "player'

NICE POST!!! DUDE FIRST SMART PERSON TO POST ON HERE FROM WHAT IVE READ JUST wanted to add clan teams/groups could be added so people could spawn/respawn on/near their allies to work as a group and to stop clan-based issues with players killing others for an item/items and pretending it was an accident(as allies would re spawn close by and would be the only one able to loot their body within say 2min of re spawning). This would mean people could actually work a a team without having to know each other in the real world and/or be on team speak. As currently unless you know the other players around in real life you can guarantee they will simply backstab you and take your stuff even if yourve been working as a team. LOL at Running simulator, since you now re-spawn with NOTHING!! And without a weapon zombies just r*pe you until your forced to abort disconnect or re-spawn. Last patch may have stopped respawning players killing each other in starting areas, but replaced it with the gaming being very much a running/dying to zombies simulator I dont know about large scale safe bases, but it would be cool to use collected resources to make some kind of hilltop fort to store items in/ defend, so you could clan based raids or fire fights

Cool idea, but heres the issue Dying... since you re spawn with no weapons, normal zombie are crazy hard to deal with let alone players, maybe this could be like another new dayz game mode. OR even better it could save your current items so you re-spawn with them I could see this idea making some pretty impressive battles and fire fights Maybe there could be team based strongholds with no friendly fire on your own team so you can work together to kill Super zeds (just ideas, could be interesting to see how this idea progresses)

2 things 1. LOTS OF ZOMBIES in straight lines. 2. Why would there be any loot in a sewer which isnt brown and squishy I'm sorry but in a zombie apocalypse the sewers would be a pretty S*** place to go ^pun intended

Could you make Spawning areas ie along coasts etc a non pvp zone except around cities. That way kids who have snipers wont just camp these areas to kill the defenceless new/re-spawned players (since we spawn with no way to defend ourselves not even a melee weapon). Maybe make a server difficulty scale? ie easy is pvp free, you spawn with a makarov. normal is pvp but limited to inland/certain areas, spawn with a melee weapon. Hard is all pvp spawn with nothing. That would kind of help everyone as new players could actually have a chance to learn the game, while so-called seasoned competitors could go hunt each other on the hard servers Another idea to consider is why not allow people to spawn on thier friends (ie send player a spawn request, if they select yes then you spawn next to them, if they say no you cant resend for another X minutes). ^mainly because it sucks playing with my friends but it taking us half an hour to meet up. Neway Hope these suggestions are Ok, its just constructive criticism

IM PRO THIS!!!! I know all you kiddos like to tell everyone else to man up, even though you cry every time a zombie kills you but lets be realistic, this isnt a boast forum its a suggestion for improvements. The spawn defenseless and stuffed is a step in the wrong direction. This could work if you could actually spawn next to your online friends (which you cant do) and use team work Something that this mod is apparently about. NEway Heres my issue with it 1. Zombies see you very easily and will chase you across several continents, Meaning if you cant kill them then enjoy the death scene. 2. in 4 hours of play with me and my friend playing we only managed to meet up once, as there is no way to spawn near you team mates and in that time we found 1 hatchet and a few clips of ammo. 3. I suspect most people have figured this by now ie like i have, but as a new player the game has no appeal if all you do is just die and be killed by other armed players. If this isnt sorted out, even with spawning with a melee weapon ie hatchet ill simply get my game refuned and go back to BF3 since they actually understand the concept of a learning curve Yes i know it is a survival but theres no reason to make it impossible for new players to join
