    I couldn't stay away despite the bug that bit me....
    Don't think I'll continue playing for too long though.

    I've established a small base for myself with good resources around it.
    Going to build up a good stockpile to create some ammo and then go exploring around the island.

    After I've done some good exploring, I'll probably leave it until they've made a few more updates.

    Creaser, is he on here?

    So i bought this yesterday and have after having lost my character during the night I've had to rebuild what little I had.

    Now have a basic house with basics on the inside and a few blueprints to go make some weaponry. Next step weapons and building a better house once I find the blueprints to make one :)

    Remember to study the blueprints right away rather than storing them somewhere...

    Excellent 1 Vs 5 fight that was posted on Reddit.

    The best bit is that we also see the other guys POV here.

    where do you get the research kits?

    Yes. Normal zombies are a 1-hit kill with a bow so kits are easy enough to find if you farm them though the threat as ever will come from other players. Have a workbench handy so you can use the kit there and then rather than having to transport it back to your base.

    is there a way to see who is online at any time ?

    No, I don't think so though maybe a server admin could do so.

    edit : some servers have extra features which allow you to do things such as see who is online with the /who command.

    Overall is the game worth buying now?
    Also is there many people from here playing?

    I've got about 20 hours out of it so I think so but it seems that there isn't a lot of content in the game as of yet and it's very unbalanced for those who wish to protect and defend.
    Also is there many people from here playing?

    No, maybe 5 or 6.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,012 ✭✭✭BizzyC


    Last logged in a few days ago.
    Had a load of gear on me and died while trying to find research kits, haven't logged back in since.

    It's a decent game overall, but I think it does need some more content.

    Take away agressive PVP players and there's not much challenge to it....


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,944 ✭✭✭✭Villain


    It's a community based game so PVP is very much part of the game, I think it has developed quite well on the server I use which has the oxide mod and no decay.

    We have built a decent place on top of rock and defending it while getting weapons etc makes pretty decent enough gameplay and it develops as communities interact e.g. we have formed an understanding with our biggest neighbour, they don't shoot us and we don't shoot them :D


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 10,912 Mod ✭✭✭✭Ponster


    I should also say to Mr Blobby that last night there were over 20,000 people online so the game is doing something right. I'm worried though that too many people have bought into the alpha and the game doesn't advance quickly enough to keep those people playing through the alpha, beta, etc...

    At the moment it's pretty easy for 4/5 people playing together to get to the current 'end-game' of owning everything (and everyone!)

    There are though a lot of modded servers which change the rules to keep it more interesting such as ones which doesn't allow you to craft military grade weapons, instead forcing you to the supply drops to find them.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,295 ✭✭✭✭Duggy747


    The server we were playing on where we built a great big fortress in the cliffs and generally had a good time has had a mass exodus, nobody playing on it in the past few days.

    Ho hum, have to emigrate and start again. Though it was inevitable with a server wipe come the next update.

    Still, it's an enjoyable game when you land on the right server and meet a healthy mix of friendlies and assholes.

    Something satisfying about finding where your killer lives and destroying / building over their home.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,012 ✭✭✭BizzyC


    I think it's definitely a game I'll get back in to once there's a bit more of it released.
    Maybe once it's in Beta...

    I think the main issue I had was that I was on servers with very light activity, so I had lots of time for resource collection and crafting/building without being attacked.

    New irish server up.


    50 slots. active admins that don't seem to abuse power. Running Oxide with airdrops and reduced crafting speeds. Had some fun on it so far with a max of perhaps 10 people on it at once.


    net.connect 88.150.159.157:29115

    Irish / EU server here folks:

    IP: 85.236.109.2
    Port: 28715

    I currently admin the server. It's PvP with NO AIRDROPS. That said, i won't let it become a grief-fest server. About 8 regular, talkative players so far with a cap of 50. Server is still in it's early days so no-one will be handicapped.

    I've a mumble server I can put up too if the user-base wish.
