But when you see someone obviously hacking, how do you know they are harmless? They might be funny, but whats to say 30 seconds down the line, when the jokes worn off they aren't going to kill you and ruin your game..

sounds more like your accusing them of hacking than admin abuse.

Yea, I'm aware, thats why its pretty pointless :P O, and I've never pitched them in rocks, but I assume its the same as pitching them in trees? You just look at it, open up the gear, say pitch tent (it wont work) then just shuffle about continuously right clicking then pitching tent and just taking baby steps around, it will pitch there sooner or later.. Never taken me more than 20 seconds to get one up inside a tree, haven't tried rocks, but don't imagine its any different.. Yes, they are, atleast in my experience..

How often does the server reset? and have you been putting new stuff in since you orginally set it up? The general issue is tents on server reset, go back to a previous state, alot of the time this is empty, so wiping anything you put into them, but sometimes this is with items. For example there are tents with thermal guns, sniper rifles, NVG, rangefinder, GPS in, and you can go and take all those items out, then when the server restarts, the tent will have all those items again, essentially giving you an endless supply of all the gear you could want.. Me and my friends each set up a tent, put stuff in, 2 appeared empty after server restart, 1 still had some of the gear in.. its hit and miss, but atleast in my experience, after its first restart, that is how it will come back everytime, no matter what.. you can destroy it, pack it up and move it, what ever.. it will still appear in its orginal location with all the gear in it, after each server restart. I do believe if you pack it up and put it somewhere else, it will appear in the orginal spot and the new spot, with all the gear in both.. but I haven't actually tested that..

It doesn't matter, a hacker can find them no matter where you put them.. As soon as your 'base' has any decent vechile there, it'll get trashed, atleast thats my experience.

You can place tents on hillsides anyway, just takes a bit of work ;)

Playing Regular doesn't help you learn the game, it just helps people find you to kill you. Far easier to learn in Vetran, where your location isn't given away on the map.

I'd recommend Vetran, and CH off..

I'm assuming you fired shots to kill him, therefore giving away your position to anyone else in the area.. It shouldn't be a surprise when you get shot at shortly after shooting someone else.. No evidence what so ever.

Press V continuously

basically vote yes if you don't have NVG and vote no if you do.. if they weren't duped like hell, most people wouldn't have any, having some super rare gear to try and work towards is part of the fun...So once its actually rare again, NVG are fine :)

I agree, these need to be fixed, so you can actually start making camps and saving items, right now the only end game is to go hunting people really.. Though the bigger issue with it is that a tent thats saved with all the top rare gear, is full after every restart, so you can just keep going back and getting nice new AS50, NVG, RF etc after every restart.. I personally don't mind the PVP, but lots of people do seem to whine about it, and maybe alot of the PKers wouldn't be quite so hungry for fights, if they actually were risking losing their gear in those fights.. with the tents as they are, you don't have to worry, just go and pick up a new set after a server restart.. I just can't wait for the stand alone :) With this game having so many issues and still being awesome, the game, when it comes, promises to be something special :D

It should stop when you leave the server and reconnect, atleast, it always has for me when I've started coughing..

You realise your screaming out for some ungeared kid to "team up" with you and then shoot you in the back and steal everything. Just thought I'd point that out.

It would only be effective if the camo was also hacker proof.. vechiles are easy enough to hide pretty well already, until a hacker just has all the vechiles on the map marked, then it doesn't matter what you've done..

Why would you want it on 360 when you already have it on pc?

I like the OP idea.. I'd be all for it.. its not exactly unrealistic either so win win :)

After my friend directing me up completely the wrong mountian to "meet up" with him, I wont go without a GPS, and more importantly, one for him too ;) I just like the ease of it, and I can have it up without leaving myself vulnerable as you are when looking at a map..Obviously you need a map also, to plan where you are actually heading :) maybe in a world where "rare" weapons and equipment were actually rare, it would pay to trade away.. But I have everything I could want.. except a quad bike :P

I totally agree, specially with the duping stuff, you can find peoples camps with literally everything you could want in.. which is nice at first.. I look forward to the stand alone game, where issues such as that will be sorted, so rare items will actually be rare.. right now I'd gladly give away free NVG and top range guns if I didn't think the survivor would shoot me and steal mine before I could actually give them away lol, its far to easy to come by.. To be honest I just all round look forward to the stand alone game.. This right now is an awesome game, and the stand alone promises so much more.. lets hope it delievers! and soon!

If you have a land mark to judge off yes... If your looking for camps in the very north of the map however, when all you have is trees and hills, its fairly easy to lose track of where you are.. Get a GPS and hit RCtrl + M and you know exactly where you are and can direct your friends to the camp you have just discovered :)

How is a map better? The GPS is a map, along with your exact location and direction your facing..

Just join a day time server now?

Does this actually work? I've never considered it.. I mean, it would make sense for it to work, though in doing it you would be highlighting yourself to all the other players.

How do you explain all the tents inside trees, on hillsides? couple of days ago my friend put one up where you can actually look inside the tent and see the trunk of the tree.. trust me, just give it a try, you just need to keep shuffling about and it'll work, takes us no more than 10-15 seconds to get them up..

You can place tents on uneven ground and trees, you open up the gear, right click, pitch tent, it will give you an error, leave the gear open take a tiny step backwards and repeat, keep doing it and it will pitch, that way you will be able to get it alot more hidden putting it amoungst some trees.
