InvisiMan2013 229 Posted February 18, 2014 I broke my legs yesterday - spent over an hour crawling to the nearest town to find sticks and couldn't find any. There were trees everywhere and an axe on my back and I was looking for sticks in houses.... <_< Will there be a point in the game when we'll be able to make use of the trees? Crawling around forever or killing yourself don't seem like great options when your legs are broken. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, resource gathering, including wood and rocks, are planned "Early 2014" if the post hasn't changed recently.At the same time, don't expect to swing your axe at a tree and have the whole thing fall down Minecraft style, conveniently dropping 2 sticks, 5 wooden logs, and 2 cardboard planks for some reason...

No, I didn't expect to go logging after breaking my legs, but I certainly would have liked to have been able to get sticks or even to break apart a chair in those said houses I searched in... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

crazyandlazy 376 Posted February 18, 2014 That's why I always have a stick with me. Came in handy once yesterday after tripping over a tiny concrete block whilst running. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
InvisiMan2013 229 Posted February 18, 2014 That's why I always have a stick with me. Came in handy once yesterday after tripping over a tiny concrete block whilst running. Except that sticks take up a lot of room (not to mention they are difficult to find), so unless you have a backpack, you can't really lug them around - especially when you are a newish spawn. The axe, on the other hand, can be put on your back, so it takes up no inventory space. I think once resource gathering is implemented, this won't be an issue anymore. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TEST_SUBJECT_83 465 Posted February 18, 2014 (edited) Be cool if you could have attached that axe to your leg with some bandages.You could limp while you could see the actual axe and bandages applied to your leg.

rickyriot 1009 Posted February 18, 2014 Another 4Chan style reply.. > be spawn> run inland as everything is looted> reach a barn within 1/2 km> run up the stairs> fall off the stairs> break leg> no loot in barn> only option to crawl all the way back to coastline and beg for people to kill me> beg people to kill me> nobody will kill me, they just laugh and run away, even the fresh spawns> FML so, yeah, I think there should be a way to commit suicide in certain circumstances, maybe a timer in the same way the server hopping is done so it stops people repeatedly committing suicide to get a better spawn point.

weedmasta 784 Posted February 18, 2014 "I was hungry and I couldn't find food, when are they adding more food to this game...." Why is it that only when people are inconvenienced/too lazy, they come on the forums with their "ideas" along with their whining? Also sticks take 2 slots and rags take one slot. So even if you only have your jeans, you have one free slot for food/drink, 3 slots if you find morphine. I really don't understand why you are whining about lack of resources in a survival game. Seriously people, think shit through before you post your garbage threads. It is getting mildly annoying. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wow! 2 vertical slots aren't going to kill you buddy. Rags don't take any slots until it's necessary to make them from your t-shirt. Ever heard of hoodies giving you more slots? Ever heard of running north? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mjeon21 20 Posted February 18, 2014 Hopefully, they will implement the option to cut trees or pick up branches from chopping down bushes in order to make splints.

Ever heard of running north? <double facepalm> If you break your legs in the forest (in my case, it was a glitch), how the fuck do you expect me to "run north" and find supplies?

Then you come prepared. You know the game is in alpha and breaking a leg can be as easy as starving, you know that you have to be prepared, you know that you can't find sticks or morphine in the forest, yet you venture off into the wilderness anyway and then come on the forums and whine about it.

I think you are being overly harsh here, the lad did ask in the OP when this is likely to be added, and I don't think it's entirely unfair to ask if you are surrounded by wood why you can use that wood for a splint when the specialised splint loot item is just two bits of sticks.

naraga 45 Posted February 18, 2014 Thankfully the two times I have broken my leg in the game I have had morphine at the ready.The only time I broke my leg was because due to falling of some stairs. Luckily I had morphine on me and figured i'd be fine, j/k the fall ruined my pants and everything in it including my morphine. Thanks obama. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OH BOY, OH BOY! Seriously, man, you can find some sticks in the woods, and you can shop some down if you have an axe. They need to add this, pronto, because some sticks right now are way too fucking rare and it seems as if finding them (one of the most simple things you can get irl) is as hard as finding a LRS.

All the important stuff like a morphine goes at least in the backpack, if not in a medical case or small protector case, for extra insurance against breakage. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't get this community sometimes... I have to be crucified for bringing up a fundamental design flaw. For what it's worth, I was just north east of Kamyshovo, coming off the coast. Since most of the buildings in Kamyshovo don't spawn anything, and sticks weren't found. Sorry for not being a perfect player with luck level 9000! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am about done coming to the forums because of all the bullshit threads that are posted on a daily basis. People whining / discussing / "bringing up ideas" about dead horse topics that have been brought up over 1,000 times. Yeah I am almost done. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
