+1. I've dropped my bag about 6 times now with no issues. I HAVE had one disappear when swapping them, though. I always drop my bag.

Not sure what changed in the new patch, but that's a LOT of zombies. Fired the AK like usual, used to getting 4-5 at a time when in the open. The last time I counted; I had 16 and that was AFTER I cleared where I was standing (about 30 constantly coming at me). They're running from a loooong ways off to get me now. Interesting. Somehow grabbing those weapons just became slightly less appealing, haha.

Let's just put it this way: I was at the airfield, and not only was I bleeding but my legs were broken as well. Once I fought them all off I had 2000 blood... had to crawl ALL the way back across to my tent in the woods.. and that's with players lurking in the background. I only used the AK because they literally swarmed me from all sides.. something they've never done before with so many numbers. I went from 410 kills to 492 by the time I was stranded out in the middle of the field.. and they were STILL coming at me. Yeah, that was intense, heh.

Join another one. I got stuck in your situation and it ended up killing me by trying to get around it.

Same here. An admin on the server I play on said something about updating, but I went from playing to "bad version - server rejected" so I'm not sure what is going on. I was playing 30 minutes ago, heh.

I found two FAL's and an M170 last night. Didn't have space for the sniper, though.. not to mention I don't really have much use for it since I don't actively hunt players. I left it there, heh.

zeroing is accurately correcting your range so it is adjusted to your current target. You zero targets based on distance. Kind of an important thing to know, particularly when targets are fairly far away or if you decide to start sniping.

if only that was caught on fraps..

the word "endgame" makes me seriously laugh. Quiet possibly the dumbest conception ever. Here, let's make people slog through our shitty game to get to the good content "at the end". Honestly - the first thing I'll do when I find a decent setup (and I did, but I skipped the M107 due to lack of space) is go player hunting for people camping the coast for newbies. Nothing like killing a griefer.

I'd probably just sit in a tree somewhere ingame and watch porn, but that's just me.

So, I'm on my first runthrough.. found a spare Alice pack. Loaded it with two guns, and stuck it in the tent for safe keeping/reserves. Come to find out I remove the bag from the tent and it's completely empty. I'm assuming wiki's information of " If you place a filled backpack into the tent, the contents of the backpack will remain" no longer applies, or I potentially hit a bug?

I figured as much. That's alright, though. I still have the bag and that's all that matters to me at this point. I intentionally did not put the more valuable guns in there for that reason. :)

Was this today? That might have been me, actually.

Interesting. I guess I should start just picking it up and moving it a few feet if I plan to farm certain areas.

I found a dead player. I already had an alice bag, and I wanted to fit more weapons in the tent.. so I put the bag (with two guns in it) into the tent.. for a total of 7 firearms in the tent + ammunition.

I agree. I think weapons crates would be a great idea. Not saying it needs to have 15 rifles and 2400 rounds of ammunition; but a rifle or two wouldn't hurt + magazines.

That's funny, I was going to say the exact same thing about your response. There's enough "HURR DURR GET OVER IT I'M SOOOO KNOWLEDGABLE" responses in this forum to make someone want to bang their head on a desk.

Yes, and the 'obvious trolls' encompasses quite a few users. I've already ran into a few. You get them in every game, but it's pretty bad here.

... because that same shitty attitude you see on these forums are the same ones playing the game regularly. The forum users here aren't a minority. Really reminds me of Reddit and 4chan, honestly. Same crowd if I had to take a guess.

some get a bad spawn and just force-kill so that probably doesn't help things either. I'm on my second run through (first REAL run-through) and I've been alive for quite awhile.. several real days. Not bad for a first timer.

Or.. OR.. ready for this? It's an alpha built on a unstable game engine. Logic you say? INCREDIBLE.

I'm actually surprised Rocket didn't allow some "fix house" mechanism... considering you have to fix everything else that's out there worth a crap. At least in that regard you'de have a reason to use the barbwire rolls.

+1 No issues, connected right away. I think (like mentioned) the servers simply need to be back up to speed.

I'm still getting the same deal. Waiting for host. Looks like the patch updated everything but I'm still hanging @ the loading screen.

Those kind of people are not bound by man-made laws. They fall under the category of psychopath and sociopath. These types of persons may fall under the category of bandit, but most people that fall under this category (in the real world) have no intentions of harming another individual.. they have no desire to, but they DO want to objects of possession. There's simply no reason for violence when an advantage over social contract theory can be attained. Violent behavior towards other human beings just isn't hardwired into our brains. It takes a special kind of person to be able to kill another person over objects (these people ONLY think of themselves, and anyone that has valuable assets is considered a potential victim of violence). Those are the ones you have to look out for. Psycho/Sociopaths do not care about external restrictions or laws. Even in a post-event of severe conditions - people will DEFEND themselves in the event they need to.. but senseless killing for the sake of doing so, or the sake of objects will still be extremely limited. The only reason it happens so much in this game is because: 1) it's a game with no real consequences; thus many people use this as a way of entertainment 2) some people enjoy ruining other people's experiences and have some serious problems.. this game is not the only case to this kind of behavior, obviously. This is also not saying playing a "bandit" is wrong, either. 3) it's easy and it's lucrative. Pretty fair reason, really. 4) because it's an option, and solely to try something different. You see a lot of people throw all these arguments around that people would do ____ or _____ in a severe situation, and that's honestly not true. There's a ton of real-world examples that have supported this; many of which have happened here in the United States. About the only time that changes is when the psychological rarity of a socio/psychopath is involved, or it is gang-related activity (and that actually has correlation with those types of psychological profiling). There's my CJ lecture for the day. Hurrdurr.
