No I don't want to leap tall buildings in a single bound...just want to be able to get over barbed wire when V fails to work. Really sick of those idiots who block off the church door.... ...While being chased by Zeds.

lol...I wasn't asking for a bunny looking gillie suit...but ok...I'll go back to just trying to stay alive.

This has been brought up from others, but i thought a thread would be cool to discuss the idea. I'm thinking about being able to line a perimeter with wire and fence, build tree stands for guards and generally have a place for medical help, food or anything else someone might need...even a place to log out safely. I think it would have to be built in the north (which would add to the storyline) in a relatively secure location, terrain wise. Thoughts on this?

"Unique" solution to discourage DCing to avoid death.

Being a bunny as scout wouldnt help...they can only see a few fet in front of them at that eye level.... And being a past bunny owner, they really only care about eating drinking, pooping and nibbling on power cords.... ...oh and hopping away to avoid being picked up...:) -
Need Medical Assistance? We can help.

You have really turned my thoughts on this game around. I generally dont get to far off the beach before I get sniped or eaten. If there was a humanitarian of the year award, I'd say you'd have it locked. I also like others had the idea of setting up a safe zone/market.make shift village in the wilderness. A place where people could come and bed down, get a meal or whatever and log off in peace. It would take tree stands (can we build those yet) for security and barbed wire and fences for the perimeter, but what a great thing it would be... And if you find fix a helo or two, you could really do the MASH thing... In any event, you're to be commended for showing what true human comparision is about instead of degenerating into a cannibal...like the guy I saw today, just outside the church door, hovering over a dead recruit, weaponless survivor, holding an axe in his hand. Time to switch servers. -
I havent seen any vehicles yet, but i did come across two pitched tents, they were both empty. Their location was awful too....smack in the middle of a small grassy field close to a large city.

So I was thinking that the spawn points might be safer if they were moved to just inside the treeline. Spawning out in the open is extremely problematic between snipers and zeds. The other thought I had is that right now it takes a very long time to run anywhere. At the very least, getting one of the diesel trains running with a load of flatcars to hop on would help speed things up and the tracks are already in place. And an additional thought is that it might be nice to at least have an option where you want to spawn (inland/coastline : general area : ect)

Yea I have to say they are a blur right now...at least give them a speed that can be tracked with iron sights.

Bandit/Survivor Morphing to be removed

Nice decision. I also like the idea of other skins to loot. I hope that means more civilian attire. -
My installation has picked up my computer name, but I want to change it. Any ideas?
-
How do you change your name in game?

Boy I feel like a newb. Thanks . -
Not sure if the most shocking thing I have seen is a cow grazing in the field today or a warning shot that whizzed by my ear. In the latter encounter (Zane) said "he wasn't friendly, that that was a warning shot and I should go my own way..." Yep, no problem...

I had been finding my way through the wilderness. Starting from Kamenka, I made my way north. I had hoped to build myself up, get stronger, but avoid any danger. The woods were dense and I lost my way several times, until I finally found a compass. That helped. My plan was to make it up to the Airbase where I figured I would have the best chance of surviving future altercations. I ran, walked and crawled my way through the trees, sometimes seeing a couple of Zeds in the distance, but rarely engaging them. After awhile I was low on food, and water. I had finally found a Winchester to which I had earlier scrounged some ammo for. That felt good to have in my hand. To get the Winchester though, I had belly crawled through a vast open field in order to get into a warehouse. Amazing that even when the Zeds are almost on top of you, they don't 'see' you. As I continued on my way, my situation with water and food had become a major problem. An encounter with Zombies and lack of energy left me with blurry vision...still I was able to kill a couple of Z-Boys, but they yielded nothing. Then I fell, my vision was grey...."Was I just shot?", I asked myself.... No. I had exhausted my body. I could make out a steeple in the distance....Lopatino! Yet a long way. When you are this tired, all you can do is crawl. And I would...that is for about a minute, then I would pass out. I kept repeating this task. Crawl and pass out...crawl and pass out. "Was I getting closer to the church?" "How far is it?" (I figured a half mile or so) Then I thought of God. I was never a religious man, so why was I hoping that intervention from God would save me.....sounded kind of hypocritical. Still I kept crawling...right upon a Zombie hoping around....he was less than 10 feet from me... ...Blurry...I took my shot....and missed. ...he came at me and at point blank range, I dropped him. Then the horde came. And all was Peaceful.

Right now I would love to have a bat since I just lost my Mak in the grass to climb a ladder and I thought I was putting it into my bag...really thought about suicide by zombie, but now i'll just travel until i get spotted or I find a weapon I can use.
-
I could see using a melee weapon to slow them down in order to be able to run away. Or in the case of say a Bat...it would take say 6 hits to kill one...does anyone have that kind of time to stand around? Probably not....other's would be coming.

With all the farms...horses make a great deal of sense.

Happy Birthday man. Thanks for putting this mod together.

Wasn't that hard to figure out. The numbers are long/lats. Example : 054 / 074 puts you in southern Russia. If you arent on that mappoint then it's directing you to that point for a reason. If you are at that point. It's a gps. when it's 0,0,0...its a blackout area.
