ChainReactor 922 Posted January 30, 2015 (edited) Too many bugs in this release for me. Invisible zombies everywhere, one went through 3 shut doors in one house and that's after it went through doors at 2 other houses. How do they manage to break this all the time? Half the time I couldn't pick up an item either. Oh well, will wait till they fix. Those are actually all signs of desync and a bad client/server performance. Given that all exp servers where "fresh" last night, there's a chance that your end isnt running that well too, try to check that.

Tatanko 5591 Posted January 30, 2015 That new castle is also definitely going to be the new sniperspot for killing freshies. Its got a very good view of the coastal road and anyone running there will be compeltely oblivious that anyone is watching them until it is too late.The views from there really are quite good. You can see for quite a distance, like way more than in most any other area of the map except the northwest and Three Valleys. Too many bugs in this release for me.

I was noticing this morning that door states are messed up again (i.e. closed/open and saying the opposite), hoping it's just from desync. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cullis 7 Posted January 30, 2015 This version really does not like me. Played again today, with BE excluded from AV. I play for couple of minutes, discovering the ice-pick is pretty sweet and works well on walkers. Then I get 'session lost'. WTF. Never had that before.

Cullis 7 Posted January 30, 2015 (edited) I love the flare gun, I was standing on a cliff shooting flares off Enquiring minds want to know: can you set people or zombies on fire by shooting them with a flare?

EDIT: Goddammit, now(1804 CET) all exp servers except one 3PP are down.I have not tried that yet but it is on my mind for sure and the next thing I intended to try.. Oh well, exp being updated, so off to the grocery store for beans and canned peaches. Edited January 30, 2015 by Barnabus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tatanko 5591 Posted January 30, 2015 Looks like they are attempting to get more servers operational and then updating again. Glad to see more will be available (hopefully). I'm guessing the next few builds will be mostly bug fixes since they did a huge dump of content with yesterday's update. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

odin_lowe 3686 Posted January 30, 2015 I had some spare time this morning to test exp a bit. Got the chance to find lots of new items and I have to say that I love some changes. Shirts now take only 1 space of inventory instead of 4. The new raincoat colors are pretty sweet. It seems that throughout my time playing, I never encountered lag spikes, desync or anything that would interrupt gameplay. It's pretty stable for now. As for the water pumps and drinking from streams, you just have to "cancel current action" everytime you take a sip. Was able to get hydrated very fast. Can't wait to have a chance to get back into experimental! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Was able to get hydrated very fast.Hmm, that works, huh? Good to know. I was basically just spawning -> exploring -> dying -> repeat last night :P My first life I got really geared up at the prison, but after I gave all my stuff to somebody and respawned to explore Skalisty, I never was able to find enough to sustain myself. Granted I wasn't looking very hard or in very many places, and I was in a hurry. Edited January 30, 2015 by Tatanko Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tatanko 5591 Posted January 30, 2015 Seeing lots of exp servers, even 60/60 ones.Unless they are known to be online, that can be a bit misleading unfortunately. Sometimes they will show up on the list as though they are available and they will display the player count, time, etc. that it last had before it was taken offline.

Tatanko 5591 Posted January 30, 2015 No footsteps for me, anyone else ?At all? There is a bug that makes it sound like your footsteps are behind you, but I hadn't heard about silent footsteps. I was a victim of the former, last night on the prison island I was getting paranoid that someone was behind me all the time :P 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ello 11 Posted January 30, 2015 zombies pressed me thru a wall now i can starve to death. the trick with window mode and closing the game while running didn't work for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
odin_lowe 3686 Posted January 30, 2015 No footsteps for me, anyone else ?There's seems to be major changes in footsteps sounds. I got startled a couple of times at first, as there are now some directional "echo" when getting close to structures. At first I thought it was someone else. :rolleyes: And I don't have any breathing sounds anymore, I dunno if it's just me. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ello 11 Posted January 30, 2015 (edited) btw, does anyone know why there are only us servers ? or is this again just me? need to rage a bit to get it out of me: why tf did they set up so less servers . no chance to enter anyone. this sucks big time Edited January 30, 2015 by ello Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tatanko 5591 Posted January 30, 2015 (edited) btw, does anyone know why there are only us servers ? or is this again just me?Do you have any search filters set? Sometimes the non-US servers took a while to show up on my list even if they had decent ping; I just had to be patient and wait an extra 15 to 20 seconds after the US servers appeared. This was last night. As of right this moment, it's possible that the others may simply not be on yet. EDIT: Edited January 30, 2015 by Tatanko 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
