RagedDrew 209 Posted February 3, 2014 Really, KoS on the experimental servers? Sort of defeats the purpose don't you think? Since I don't really like running around on my own on the stable severs I thought I'd give the new patch a test. So I jump on a near full server (the only server that had room to be honest) I spawn nest two other guys, one just so happened to have a bike helmet on, the other just had the cloths on his back, I stay away for a while just watching what they are doing. I hear the guy with nothing but his cloths ask the other if they wanted to team up so I get my fists up and just sprint past him, now I'm between him and the one with the helmet. For the giggles I'm bending over while running and looking to the side, the guy behind is having a good laugh and I start speaking down the mic saying "I'm gonna get cha" speaking about the guy in front, he then stops turns round gets his fists out, I just processed to pass him, but keep an eye on what's doing behind me when I see him start hitting the other guy and knocks him out. I turn round and run back to help, I knock the guy with the helmet out and continue to beat on him until the other guy gets up, he then beats on him for a while before we start running for Kamyshovo.(is that how it's spelt?) We're pretty much starving to death by now but we stop at the water pump in Kamyshovo for a drink and start making our way to Elektro, on the way we have a discussion about cannibalism and if it would be added in game later and how our new friendship would last in our current situation as our stomachs growling violently, alarm bells start going off in my head, thinking this guy will probably kill me as soon as he gets a good enough weapon. In Elektro, my new found friend stumbles upon a kitchen knife, no big deal I'd probably get away if he tries anything with that but nothing happens so far, we then find a can of sardines and share it before looking for more food, we come across a zombie by the corner of the school house and the hospital, we work together beating this thing with our bare hands only to hear a guy shouting "Why are you beating zombies in that way?" as he runs from the fire house, he continues "It's against the rules" he then swings his axe at me, I some how managed to dodge his first swing, how ever the second doesn't miss and my screen goes black with the words "You are dead" I then hear a disturbing moan as he clearly kills my new friend. That was my first and only attempt at testing the new patch on the experimental, I mean really aren't they there for us to test and find any bugs or glitches that may have been overlooked? Why KoS on these servers? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dvsilverwing 241 Posted February 3, 2014 We all like to think of ourselves as super awesome alpha testers, but really 95% of the people on experimental just want to play with new content before it's actually available on stable, so yeah, if you have the new rifle you're probably going to get killed for it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did you read anything I wrote? We had a kitchen knife between us and were KoS'd because we beat a zombie with our hands lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Korsbaek 1778 Posted February 3, 2014 None of that was KoS. KoS is just being killed on sight. They didn't just kill immediately, they both spoke first. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kingrex 85 Posted February 3, 2014 Korsbaek is saying it was not kos because the guy that killed you did have some form of communication before killing you. Granted the guy that killed you is a bit of a loser but at least he said something rather then just shoot you with no interaction what so ever. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mos1ey 6301 Posted February 3, 2014 (edited) The experimental servers aren't any different from the stable ones. They're just there for players to to 'test' (i.e. play) the new build. Edited February 3, 2014 by Mos1ey 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Judopunch 523 Posted February 3, 2014 (edited) Err.... You got killed, in Elektro, and you are surprised at this? And you run your own server? Seriously? Edit: The test server has already found several bugs that crashed the servers multipul times. Part of the changes are how bodys and loot despawn on death. Items are now taking damage and getting ruined from damage delt to the player holding them. For most of these, you need to kill someone. To test it.... But your surprised you got killed in Elektro?

skyline-gtr 130 Posted February 3, 2014 Wow that is so awesome, You got killed by a zombie protector. Yeah so dont you think the zombie has been through enough, what with already being dead, possible BO issues, hunger for human flesh etc etcYou decide to kick a man when he is down. Then you get all pissy when someone stands up for him. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Element47 2480 Posted February 3, 2014 also, punching zombies is obviously against the rules. didnt you get the memo? please, think of the zombies. we only have so many. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sinphaltimus 262 Posted February 3, 2014 If people don't KoS on experimental how is anyone going to find KoS bugs and glitches?And no. Never installed or ran experimental myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AgainstArseholes 12 Posted February 3, 2014 It's a known glitch on the experimental servers and it's forbidden to take advantage of it. If you punch a zombie to death there's a high chance it will have a gun in it's inventory. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
