Oh wait... you did already...  <_<

When people say, "I know this is alpha, but..." everything after the ..."but" means that they really don't know it's alpha. :rolleyes:

 

Which is why I typed "and".  Imagine if you'd read it before mashing the keyboard ;)

I've only spawn at kamishovo since they messed with the spawn, nowhere else

 

No, no, you're obviously mistaken, because other people have said that isn't possible ;)  My single spawn point in Kamy is up the north road at the last building on the right.  Don't know if there are other spawn points in and around Kamy than that.  The only other two points are the beach west of Electro docks and the beach south of Berezino docks.

 

Lol you mentioned Balota airfield.  I know now what your issue is with this game.  You're *one of those* players.  Move along, nothing to see here folks.

 

Yeah, I'm "one of those"  players that would like to get some of that military gear that I've heard about and seen other players with.  Not too much of an expectation, I think, even for an alpha.

My question is... Why are you staying along the coastal areas knowing this is where the highly loot ravaged places are?

I as well as others really have no issues with finding the stuff we need to survive. Get off the coast, go inland to less frequented towns. Or are you one of those who thinks a gun is the end all be all of surviving in DayZ and Cherno, Balota and the like is the go to? If so you need to rethink and change your playstyle.

 

As for all the other bits... Well... Do I really have to say it?

I don't need a gun, but if I don't have at least a crowbar/axe/fire axe, I just l keep running from the zeds.  I've only gotten into fisticuffs with a zed  twice - not my preferred form of dealing with them though.

 

I don't stay along the coast, I try to get the hell away for the reason you said, and I said previously.  I never get very far though.  Furthest inland I've ever made it before something punted me back to spawn is Gorka, Msta and Pusta/Prigo.  Haven't made it to Krasno yet, but I've seen Cherno in the distance though :)

That's what I do, grab the nearest fountain, fill up, make some rags from my shirt, and head away from the three spawn points.  Look for goodies along the way.

I am not certain how you are so unlucky to spawn in only three spots. 

 

Spots I have spawned:

Kamenka

Komorova

Balota

Cherongorsk

Prigorodki

Elecktrozavdosk

Three Valleys

Solnichniy

Novy Sobor

Gorka

That's cool and some of those I don't even know the location of on the map.  I've made it to a couple of those places though.  I get my inventory completely reset at least 2 or 3 times a day, so I wonder if totally remaking my toon would change my spawn somehow.  I know that my blood type likely changes every time I respawn because I've found two blood test kits - different results.  Maybe there's a corrupted or glitched config file on my end that is stuck with the three spawns?  I would have thought that spawn randomizing would be a server side process so as not to allow hacking.  Once again, I have no gear to lose on a character remake, so I'll try that.

If you can, try dying to some random glitch or what should be an easy to kill zombie that got a lucky knock out shot after sneaking up to you in a very out of the way place so there is a very good chance your body will remain unfound. If you have really solid gear at the time it seems the game spawns you about as physical far away as it possibly can. It also seems as if it monitors your progress and reboots the server as soon as you get within about 200m of your body.

LOL.  Awesome advice/observation.

How can you say "I understand it is in alpha" and continue on with the rest of your rant here.  Even if it were in early beta you would be missing a crap ton of content and polish, let alone it being in a rather earlish alpha phase... 

[weedmasta 784]

Look ma, another "I know this is an alpha, but..." thread. Oh joy.
