Most people are going to avoid these since they can't compete with players with nightvision goggles.

I don't think we'll have anything but generic soda in the standalone. Still, I find it odd that Rocket hates Dr.Pepper fans. Screw rocket! I want my moneyz backs! rabble rabble

Twice as many in their current form still wouldn't be a challenge. I'll wait to see what kind of AI they actually get in standalone but they definitely need to be tougher and more numerous. Coastal zombies should be a tad easier, close to what they are, than inland zombies just to give noobs and fresh spawns a fighting chance. In land and at quality loot areas should be much more harder to deal with than they are now.

Correct answer. We would have also accepted "Negative Ghost Rider, the pattern is empty."

I've only had artifacts maybe 3 times. Change all the settings down to low, profit. Game looks funky but at least I don't have to put up with that crap.

True but I could have sworn there were a couple rules people should be remembering. Something about not getting attached to their gear. Besides, tents are jacked up to begin with and dupers love them. I hope they solve this issue in the next patch and then wipe the database and force everyone to start over. At least it'll only be hacked shit ruining the game and not the average joe that feigns surprise when his gear magically respawns in his tent.

Zombies are way too easy. They need to be made harder by their strength or increased in number. Not sure about the problem here. I can stealth through the towns without any hassle. Use third person or study them closer.

I'd rather throw my handgun at a player than try to shoot him with it.

This is why I store parts and why I damage my vehicles and barbwire and tanktrap the shit out of industrial buildings in the area. Doesn't stop hackers but it'll stop most players from stealing my stuff.

I'll consider buying maps if the games content is increased. Even without hackers, there is very little reason to head inland as nearly all gear can be found along the coast. If there's more to the maps other than a bunch of unused real estate then I'll definitely consider it. Oh, and they better be some amazing maps that bring a lot to the table that user created maps couldn't. User created maps should still be allowed.

Depends on the number of players on the server and if I accidentally joined a server with the wrong beta patch.

Alt-f4 pussies should be given a million paper cuts and then thrown into a tub of STD's.

Same. I love playing at night. I know those lives are short but sneaking around with only a flashlight while knowing the light can attract players is probably the best fun I've had in this game. This makes the game much harder even in third person. It's definitely easy to get turned around in the woods and I love that. I just wish the flashlight beam wouldn't go through objects. I'll crank the music up and walk around. The further north the better as I find it impossible to get lost in Cherno or Elektro or anywhere on the coast now. Night play is the only time I've found the zombies even remotely interesting after learning how to play. Trying to run from them in the pitch black with the flashlight swinging is intense. This is hands down the best way to explore the map for a little PVE action, no matter what view you're in.

Easier? Not really but I don't play with crosshairs, ever. I choose to play on servers without them because crosshairs in FP or TP is probably the cheapest thing in the game. It helps to know everyone else on the server is having the similar experience? I don't crawl around ever so chances are other players are not either. So even if I was forced into FP I wouldn't play that way. Zombies are not a threat in FP or TP. It sounds more like you're roleplaying than anything. Which is cool by the way.

Every third person shooter I've ever played allowed people to play in first person. As it's been said again and again in this thread, FP has it's uses. Use third person or not, I could care less. It's the FP crowd that wants to force their ideal game view on everyone else. This game is a third person shooter designed on a third person shooter but gives server admins the ability to turn off third person. Don't like? Play on FP only servers. I'd rather enjoy the game as intended than play the game in a terrible view designed for arena style games.

I guess I should have said "good" games. I also said tactics. None of those titles are even close to open world or sandbox and all of which force a player through a series of levels while on rails and most of the stealth is some basic scripted event thrown in to mix up the game play. Besides Mirror's Edge and Bioshock, I doubt any of those other games sold well enough to even support a multiplayer experience for long. Some of you should google peripheral vision and then wonder why you prefer to play games with blinders on.

That's exactly what 3rd person is for. How can using a view as intended be an exploit? You'll be grateful of third person when the zombies get beefed up and actual non pvp content gets added that requires stealth. I'd love to see someone try to sneak up on a player in the control tower of the NW airfield without third person. Or even sneak through a town of zombies without pulling aggro. Bonus points if they can do either without being shot by other players. Third person might not be realistic but neither is running around in a zombie apocalypse with a box taped to ones head. This debate is older than most of the people on this forum and I pray the devs are smarter than a bunch of whiny children that think using third person as intended is some type of exploit.

Are we counting deaths caused by hackers? Either way, I have no idea. I've lost count. I died about 4 times tonight. 6+ times last night. Mostly due to hackers but some were definitely legit. I got my share of kills as well so don't feel bad for me.

Hrm.. he might need a few days to think of one.

Have at me. Come on now, don't shy away from a debate. Name a game that requires stealth and tactics that forces a players to play in first person.

FP has it's uses. It's even perfect for some types of games like CoD or Halo. It's not perfect for this game. Everyone can use it so I don't see why so many people hate on it. Hurry up and adapt. It's not going anywhere.

Honestly, why would the devs even bother with this community of trolls, idiots, backseat developers, and demanding children?

In some parts of the world you can buy an AK47 with a single chicken. AK's are a "find in your home" type of weapon but it depends on where your home is. Just thought I'd mention that.

So don't stand right next to them? Silly? Yes but it's probably the easiest thing to avoid in the entire game.
