How long does it take to run from one edge to the map to the other?

[marsmars 155]

From east to west?

 

And from south to north?

[TedZ 424]

I ran from NWAF :(Top) to Cherno and it took 34minutes. I'd say at-least 40minutes.

[Window Licker 504]

Yep and it's a square map so about the same east-west, can't wait till we have another mode of transport to hurry things along and announce my arrival at NWAF to every survivor with a mosin....

[twingunz 308]

Yeah i agree with Ted maybe even slightly less 20-30 if you're on a flat east-west is worse than north - south imo just because you can go pretty much flat the whole way north to south (edit: along the coast) but east to west is a lot more hilly

I've done it in about 45 minutes. Don't recall if it was non stop. I may have stopped for water.

My suggestion...just do it. Then you'll know for sure.

Ran from Northwest airfield to cherno in 20 minutes today, just a straight line without any stops.

[Problematic 71]

Yeah you can run NWAF > Kamyshovo in under an half hour, personal experience.

This game needs plenty of vehicles ASAP.

and hopefully we won't find any gasoline around every corner

If there is plenty of beans, why not gasoline?

Maybe they will implement craftable fuel from cow patties

It's about 15km in N-S E-W if you could run at full speed ( 20km/h ) across flat surfaces you would be there in about 45 mins. Let's say it would take you about an hours and maybe a couple of minutes to cross the map.

[Immersive 121]

A long time. Especially East - West.

i ran from kammy to NE airfield in full sprint in 30 minutes. i think the small bend accounts for time wasted but probably easier than going up steep slopes.

we're either going to get plenty of vehicles and VERY little gasoline, or an adequate amount of gasoline, and very few cars. Because it's not fucking epoch or GTA. Getting a running car is gonna be difficult, that's the way the game plays, We don't need "plenty of vehicles asap", because it's not going to change the fact that you're going to be fucking running EVERYWHERE regardless.

I ran from Guba's train station in the northeast, to the train station north of Lopatino in the northwest just last night. Followed the tracks, headed out with one canteen at sixty percent, and two cans of beans. Took two hours at normal pace lol. I horribly underestimated how low my supplies actually were, even at full healthy status.

Thankfully, dead north, there was another train station, a couple hangers on the right, a huge garage Bay Area with a soccer field across from it, and old Cherkova ahead. Was able to resupply with a case of soda lol. Good times tho.

And how are we meant to tell the time from that exactly ?

Tested speed on a 1 km stretch of road and full sprint is pretty close to 25 km/h for flat and level. Don't know if slope or vegetation makes a difference except where walk gets enforced.

And cars NEED to be locked to the server. I don't want to be seeing no free parking spots in Cherno. That could cause a bloodbath!

It says so down at the bottom. 5 minutes 32 seconds. But only if you're the energiser bunny or shove a dozen 9v batteries up your arse.

[Ineedscoffee 464]

If gasoline reserves go down as we take it from stations, I'll be happy. Only have it replenish every other server reset. However, with electricity being gone, I'm wondering how we will get the gas.

In the video's description it says he started at 5:00 and ended at 6:10

The thing is, cars can run of moonshine(in russian they call it samogon aka homemade distilled alcohol), which we could create with the right tools. Just saw that on mythbusters hehe.
