The funny thing about these kind of threads... How do you know how many times someone observed, but didn't kill you?

Cars, garages, blue railings, train cars, radio towers, barns, stables.... These are limited to certain guns however, so the one thing I will give you, is that anything should be able to spawn anywhere.

I noticed there is no longer a chat channel reserved for the radio. You used to change it from direct to whatever frequency you had the radio set to. Now there is only direct chat. Anyone know how to speak on the radios now?

a) Only cowards and thumb suckers shoot people in the back. Fight with some honor, man. b) Headshot. BOOM!

All I want to know, is how does 3 pistol rounds to a player's face equal ruined gear?

Everything and anything, as should be with all spawn points. Formulaic loot spawn patterns has always been the bane of this game.

On your next life, you'll be lookin for 9mm and will find plenty of .45.

Here is a short video that I think really highlights a problem with the melee system... I don't really get it. You can pretty much headshot with any gun and it gets you a kill. You can headshot with your fists and it gets you a KO. But when you now score those same headshots with melee weapon, you don't get ish for your efforts.Is it a bug we are looking at here? Are melee weapons actually making contact with another area of the players' collision box before hitting the head? I've had this happen with an axe as well. Snuck up behind and cracked some dude atop his unknowing head with a firemans axe and he gets KO'd instead o killed. I can't help but think, if you're going to put a one punch KO in for player characters who throw a punch like one of those boxer puppets from the 80's, can you at least make it so that a head shot with all other items greater than a fist can equal the same results? Some should even be an instant kill, especially when they don't see it coming. Seriously, I don't think you really have to worry about anyone comparing you to Halo or BF3+ or CoD. I think people would accept it; you get snuck up from behind and meleed, you're dead. Pretty universal at this point. Anyways, just wanted to share this with everyone and see what kind if response it gets. Based on all things I've seen people constantly whine about, this one doesn't seem to come up a lot and am wondering why?

Good thing grenades are in our future. =)

Ya, it's a pretty badass sounding gun as well. Have you managed to figure out what the default zeroing is set to?

The thing I find funny about the hardcore ragers, is that when you sort for hardcore servers in my area with <150 pings, you will get over 100 hardcore servers with under 5 players, 2 full and on a good day, 2 more that are half full. There are more hardcore players running around in safe, cushy, barren environments than there are playing with a real risk involved. When those numbers change, let the shit talking begin. Until then, hardcore players seem like just as big a bunch of pansies as all the regular players are.

...I saw the server list. I was instantly reminded why I always end up switching back to experimental. That server list is like a bunch of lil panzies, screaming at the top of their lungs; NO, COME PLAY ON MY SERVER!

Would you want to be seen hanging around town with that loud and obnoxious kid that runs around begging for attention?

Holy crap. I just spent some time on an exp regular and an exp hardcore server and LRS' are spawning all over Hobo. Wont be long before the whole server is having snipe wars across the valley. =)

I've been hitting up several perches in and around the Hobo, have yet to see or hear a single other sniper in that area. I am amazed actually, can be quite the challenge tryin to hit a target down in that city while up on one of the ridges. I have one spot where I estimate it's probably around a 1200m shot. I made a group scatter, but don't think I've ever hit anyone.

I love the part where you tore a shit into some rags. Those be some mad skills, bro. :)

I always get a good laugh when I see players so desperate for a kill. Let me guess, thought Elektro was still a hot spot only to be campin around for an hour watching the tumbleweeds roll by. LOL.

Could it be possible that these cheaters are helping us in the long run? Could it be that they have their hooks in place to capture these cheats and use that information to plug the holes?

Good to know that I am not the only one that feels this way, but this thread is only 2 pages long. We're severely outnumbered. =( In an ideal world, all the servers would be owned and operated by BI, but that would never happen has there is money to be made. In an ideal world, instead of there being 10 full servers and 100s of servers with less than 5 players each, we'd have 50 full servers(obviously those numbers aren't accurate, but you get my point). In an ideal world, people would play a game because they actually like it and not because it's popular. In an ideal world.... Unfortunately, we do not live in an ideal world.

I don't get the point of experimental? Shouldn't experimental at least be the branch getting quicker itteration? I mean, internally they must be working on a newer build every day. I had always assumed that they split it into 2 branches, allowing the stable to be the default and the one where people would complain the most if it wasn't stable, but you would think with experimental they would open it up to daily itterations without fearing the backlash from unreasonable gamers.

There are new vests in the game, 12 slots instead of 8. It was called an olive high capacity vest. I found one yesterday. Pretty cool.

Stupid people that fall for obvious traps deserve to get shot. Sorry stupid people. I don't mean to offend, but you will die more often than not. It's just nature.

Ya, it also doesn't help that I seem to have a knack for joining servers within 10-15 mins of a restart. =(

Wow, no one suggested the smoke stack. It's dangerous up there though, as the game doesn't seem to like players maneuvering in tight spaces. I lost a pretty lengthy life up there once, as I was pushed out through the railing when going into a crouch while facing the smoke stack. =( But the upside is you are shooting down to the roof tops so they can't hide.
