Pertinent info;

Server: Dallas 42

Time: ~1800

What happened: Everyone on the server got nuked/bombed. Everyone suddenly died, same thing that everyone has been reporting.

Not pertinent

An aside(I know I shouldn't but...: I have read many people saying that when this happens it makes it feel useless to try and survive. I definitely understand this because I was just chillin' in the wilderness, hunting and when I needed something just hitting up a building that was isolated. I had gotten tired of just fighting down south.

Anyways, my point is, why should I do anything but camp Cherno or electro and murder people, die, rinse, repeat? This takes a lot of fun out the game for me, as, sometimes that's fun, but ultimately not what I want from a survival game.

From what I have read, I don't think you can petition to get your character back, which is fine, however, without some method to get back your character when they are killed by a hack, the survival aspect of the this game is shot all to hell.

This is alpha, and I realize all your stuff might be restarted with the next update even, which is fine. However, its not worth it for me to put in 30+ hours being careful and finding stuff when I can just get nuked in the wilderness. This is the second time it has happened and both times had pretty good stuff that took me a while to get.

So, that being sad, I guess if I can't get my character back, I will be the Electro/Cherno coast bandit until some mechanism for getting character back is put into place. I'm not complaining, this happens, in games, not biggie, I am only saying, "what's the point of wasting so much time?"

So even when the mod is all finished up, if there is still no mechanism for this, I would say I will remain a coast bandit.
