Concealed Zed Killing

Recommended Posts

Hi,

Just started playing and need some help. When killing zombies from a concealed position can they still locate where the shots came from?

I belive I was in Bor, there were a number of army corpses walking around, i was in a deer stand and they were around 40-50m away (minimum). I decided not to take any shots as i didnt fancy getting chased by them all (still too new to try and lose a herd).

Any info or tips?

Cheers,

Roderz

PS. really struggling with food and water, most of the buildings i find i am unable to enter.

If a zombie is close enough to hear the shot, it will run towards you.

using silenced weapons, hatchet, crowbar, or crossbow will not attract zombies.

breaking line of sight or running uphill are the best ways to lose them.

Food and water are easiest to find in supermarkets.

Remember players, not zombies, are the real threat.

Handgun has a audible range around 40-60 meters.

Shotgun around 100.

Rifles somewhere around 100-200.

Snipers 200.

Anti-material rifles 400-500.

Machineguns 200.

Amazing. Those ranges will be well useful! Just making my way to a supermarket after wasting a load of time in Bor. Hopefully run in to some players soon too, be it friend or foe.
