Yes. You'll be more than fine.

My friends and I (4 of us) are pretty well-off, survival wise. Day 3, we each have an offhand and a main weapon, we have 6 canteens between the 4 of us, all of us have hunting knives, maps, etc. We're set on food and water, and we have full ammo and bandages, not to mention blood bags and morphine if we ever need it. We want to upgrade our weapons by hitting the barracks, but heres my question: Is it really going to be worth it? I honestly don't want to go just to get shot by people camping with nightvision snipers. If so, are there any tactics people can suggest?

Yeah...I run an Asus 580 and an overclocked 2600 @ 4.8 ghz. Its not your computer, trust me xD

In all seriousness though, what type of terrain permits tents? I'm on top of a mountain and it won't let me use my tents to store all my loot. The location was relatively flat, but does grass stop it? :S

Could we add sexual tension while were at it? Me traveling with a group of 4 guys...damn.

Night time...is dark. I had to turn up my brightness, simply because playing a game that is pitch-black is unplayable. About the flash light: Middle mouse and make sure it's equipped (in your hand) and then press L. It only really works if you stay still (or itl move around insanely.) If you're playing with friends (and are away from towns) chemlights and flares are extremely useful here. Chemlights illuminate for an hour (granted they bug out more than half the time) and are always helpful to identify youreslves...be warned though, you're a dead givaway. Also it makes a good time to raid the coast if you need too.

I just started taking the game seriously, and now I'm on my third day with my current character. I play with a group of four friends, and we are currently looking for a more permanent "base" where we can fortify/center ourselves out of. I think that if I ever get a sniper rifle and night vision, I'll be making a visit back to the coast for some revenge... What are your long-term goals in this game? Revenge? Survival in the forest? Banditry? So far, I'm up to 80 zombie kills, no player kills yet...but that might change. We're pretty well supplied now! XD
