soapmak3r 677 Posted December 22, 2013 (edited) Put in some kind of old school arcade game (Tetris, space invaders, something...) for us to amuse ourselves with while we wait...Rather than just stare at a black screen and wonder what the point of this 'feature' is... Or just remove the feature altogether as it is one of the worst in any game, ever made...It is utterly pointless...Or, at the very least, give us some kind of timer so we know how long it will last...Please.

elf cakes 559 Posted December 22, 2013 it's not a pointless feature at all, lol, but i do agree that there should be a timer. it's not realistic at all, but this is one of the times in this game where i think realism loses to fun. it's not much fun staring at your screen thinking that you could be there for up to half an hour. although a timer would detract from the whole realism aspect. basically i don't know what to do about it :P 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matteh1990 0 Posted December 22, 2013 In the mod you passed out and had an egg timer to show how long it would last. In the standalone it seems more like you are in a fecking coma than anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soapmak3r 677 Posted December 22, 2013 Currently the feature is completely broken. If your feature is completely broken, remove it until you have figured out a decent way to implement it...It's just common sense really... Going unconscious, with no clear reason why and not knowing when or if you will wake up is ridiculous... Also, after sitting for a good 20 minutes staring at a black screen, I left the server, and when I logged back in...It had deleted my character and I was back on the coast with nothing...I laughed, and realise this is an early alpha build, but come on! Again, do us all a favour Rocket and just remove the broken feature until you have figured out a way to actually implement it properly. Other than this (and the somewhat broken thirst mechanic), the alpha is great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Subject42 20 Posted December 22, 2013 (edited) Well with the new version everyone who log out while being unconscious or restrained will be dead immediately ^^ and yes unconsciousness is still broken. :( I like the idea to have some kind of mini-game while being unconscious Edited December 22, 2013 by Subject42 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NagsterTheGangster 388 Posted December 23, 2013 I hit the menu button and it will show my character on the ground "unconcious" or whatever and if Im sliding towards the coast then I assume im dead and respawn in. But I would like SOME kind of solution to this also, but I could wait if it was between this and decent zombie AI Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
