A few random questions

Recommended Posts

So, i have been playing for about 35 H now and i have a few questions and i will send cookies to whomever helps me! :D

1. Choppers.

Are they totally random spawn?

What happens when you save it exactly?

Were can you refuel it?

How much can you store in it?

2. Cars

Same questions as the choppers.

3. Tents

How does these thinks work?

Are they bug-free? AKA can i safely store things in them?

4. Raiding locals

So i know of the airfields, the stations, the deer towers and the M.A.S.H south of the SE airfield, Is there any more good spots?

5. Weapons

What weapons do you like and what should i look out for? Anything special?

6. Eppipens

How often are they useful?

I only know 2 answers that I'm 100% sure, because I don't want to give you a wrong answer :P

5. Anything you can find, depends on what your doing. I like a sniper the best, and I think it's the best if your a bandit.

6. They revive downed teamates. So if your with a group their always useful.

1 & 2 - They appear to be randomly generated in one of several pre-determined spots much like spawning a new character. Vehicles save every time you add/remove items, (not so sure about when you get in/out) and the action menu option is a safeguard letting you know for sure that you've saved it to that spot. Refuelling requires using full Jerry cans. Jerry cans can be filled at fuelling pumps (big cylindrical structures often near gas stations).

3 - The thread I mentioned also covers tents. I haven't noticed any problems since they were fixed.

4 - You don't expect me to tell you about all my local haunts, do you? :P

5 - The first question every beginner asks is "Winchester or Enfield?" The former is surprisingly quiet and has buckets of ammo. The latter has a terrible fire-rate and draws every zombie down on you within a town's radius. The CZ Hunting rifle is equally terrible in that regard, but is a prized weapon for player killing. I haven't noticed much difference between the assault rifles besides how easy or hard it is to find ammo for them.

You say they are fixed so that means that there is no risk of the server eating the tent?

Can you at least confirm that there is more military loot spots then the ones i mentioned? (I meant the M.A.S.H by the SW airfield, not the none existent one :P)

I heard there is a military base in Stary, yet to confirm.

Known locations of 'military' loot.

Medium Tier - Balota Airfield, Medical Camp below Balota Airfield, Deer Stands.

High Tier - NW Airfield, NE Airfield, Crashed Helicopters.

Does more people=more Zeds? when we are 2 people in a group we only get 3 Zeds when we are raiding deer towers, but when we are 3 we get 6 Zeds. Also, i read that the clients are the ones hosting the Zeds AI, does that mean that if i member of the group is in the US and im in Europe that the ones he's computer is hosting is going to lag for me?

It's entirely possible that it multiplies per player nearby, which would equal out a balance but I have no idea how the system works.

Clients locally usually handle the AI but I don't think so unless you're on a server extremely far away.
