You just need to type "boards" in the game filter and its the only one that will be displayed.

How do you use freelook with a bicycle? The camera's locked and it's fairly frustrating!

Nothing the server admins can do.
Its happened to all of us, you can either run east for a long time, or kill yourself.

IIRC you'll die of starvation/thirst before you reach the map proper. The new debug place was set 30km to the west.

You have low blood, are bleeding or in shock?

no, 100% blood, no shock etc. seems to have stopped now.

Pretty entertaining day yesterday on the server. Logged in with my buddy who got really unlucky with a zombie pull and broke a leg (Zombie detection is all over the place!).

He had given me his last morphine after an accident on a ladder so I offered to get to one of the towns and try to get Morphine (we were pretty far north at the time).

I head to Cherno, manage to get morphine and then get into a fight with two pistol wielding survivors. I get onto a roof and shoot one but both log out. I got out of there fast and was almost out of cherno when I got gunned down by an unknown assailant. I wasn't finished off, just left to bleed out which took 3/4 agonizing unconscious minutes!

So that 2 week old character died, and my next one spawned into an absolute warzone in Elektro.

I got a pistol in the church, but had to murder 5 people before I made it out alive (my 2 week old character had 0 murders). At one stage I was in a large municipal / residential building and there was ongoing gunfire and deaths for probably around 10 minutes outside - terrific stuff.

The last person I killed got nailed right in the back at close range with my 1911 and gave me an AKM, some food and... MORPHINE!

I get all the way back up to near Zelenogorsk and my mate is still hidden in a barn with two player kills during the hour and a half I was gone.

He almost got emotional on TS!

I really miss my compass.

I really don't think zombie detection is bad at the moment.
I was able to sneak through two towns fine without being detected, if anything its a lot easier than it was before 1.7.1

Well a Zombie ran clear across a field at us earlier. I'm not saying it's bad (bugs aside) but it's different and I'm still getting used to that. You can crouch when you used to have to crawl but there are times when you now need to stay stationary and prone where you used to be able to at least crawl.

This is lame and a bannable offense, you hardly got their names?

Great story though

Run east 2km and you should be sorted, happened me a few times.

Coins eh? I use a credit card wedged above the w :-)

I think Zombie detection is pretty much spot on now. If you take your time and prone/crawl, you can get right past them without being spotted. However you do get spotted from a good distance away while running.

Nice to see Im not the only person doing this lol...

I find a 2cent coin inserted just between 2 and 3 above the w works perfect lol

Really hope I dont spawn in wilderness

The 2 cent coins work well but not so well when you get stuck on your phone and you find you've been running into a tree for 10 minutes
