patrick_insanity@hotmail.com 111 Posted September 27, 2012 So last night I continued my lonely journey of despair, agony and sometimes, satisfaction. I was running allong the forest line near Kamyshovo and decided to scout the area for any spawn killers by taking place on a rock with my CZ close to the western end of town. unfortunatley this was a great mistake, as I ended up falling to my virtual death as I glitched between the rocks.After respawning 2 times and failing to retrieve my gear as my body was stuck inside the rock, I decided to move up north allong the eastern coast. I ended up in the northern part of Solnichy where I saw a bandit skinned player step onto a bicycle. needless to say I start hacking into his face as these gifts of heaven are something I'd dearly want myself! little did I know is that I couldn't damage him with my hatchet when he was on the bicycle. Appearently he wasn't alone and soon I found myself being hunted by a seaweed monster with a M107 pointed at my face. after out-manouvering his shots for a while and helping him get some new Zedly friends, I ended up getting shot after being 10 meters away from him with my hatchet and a group of Zeds who were all looking for some quality time with this guy.Being somewhat upset, I respawn and make my way back with an Enfield I found on the way there. After nearing Solnichy once more, I get kicked off the server, a restart I assume. I waited for the server to be back on and rejoined. knowing the name of the bicycle bandit. I noticed in the player list that they hadn't returned themselves. I head to the place where I saw them before pushing up some daisies. no one was there, however I found the bicycle and an old hatchback filled with an M24 with sufficient mags, a PDW SD, gas and plenty of beans. it only needed an engine to be usable. I decided to look for an engine inside the nearest Tec warehouse. while not expecting to find one anytime soon, I see an engine laying on the floor at the first pile of loot. /succes.And well that's how I ended up stealing my 2nd vehicle. I assume allot of people have a passionate hate for car thieves but oh well.. I couldn't just leave it there after finding an engine! besides I left the bicycle for them.. fair trade no?

Inception. 9443 Posted September 27, 2012 Fair trade most definitely, the bicycle is a demi-god in the world of vehicles. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

patrick_insanity@hotmail.com 111 Posted September 27, 2012 I know I know..! I regret it somewhere that I just didn't take the bicycle but I was still stuck up with my start backpack and the car had plenty of room so yeah.. mobile backpack ftw!PS: I'm not well educated on the whole vehicle part.. I stole a tractor this one time in my first days of playing allong with a friend and we then bumped into a van with even more shit in there! but yeah I saved the van and got back the next day (do know that we hid the van somewhere in the forests) the next day it was gone and so was the bear trap we put next to the driver seat.. so perhaps a server restart that ate it all or I'm doing something wrong. I also have no idea if I'm going to find the car next to me when I log in soon.Also if you save a vehicle. it's only saved to the server you're in right?

Inception. 9443 Posted September 27, 2012 IAlso if you save a vehicle. it's only saved to the server you're in right?Yessir, if a vehicle is on a server, it stays on that server, and there's no way to move them over. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
patrick_insanity@hotmail.com 111 Posted September 27, 2012 Yessir, if a vehicle is on a server, it stays on that server, and there's no way to move them over.Thought as much.. too bad though. I usually find out that the servers I find vehicles in being empty when I return. but oh well, it makes sense. thanks for ze info! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

synddd 10 Posted September 27, 2012 (edited) Bicycle is the best vehicle in game by far, doesn't need fuel, doesn't flip like a quad but just as prolific, and hell, if you damage is just get off and back on and its fixed, voila! ;-) Edited September 27, 2012 by Synddd 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
synddd 10 Posted September 27, 2012 and did i mention that its fast, reliable, doesn't use as much food as sprinting everywhere and when you get off, your aim is just as if you didn't just pedal your way 20-odd-km across the map. GOLD! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
patrick_insanity@hotmail.com 111 Posted September 27, 2012 Ohhh well it's cool. just got killed at the airfield due to first breaking my leg by vaulting over debris and then after patching up getting shot by some dude while there were only 2 other people in the server. ffffuuuu-- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
