Grumpypants

I got stopped by a guy who asked for food, I was looking to see how much I had left and noticed I only had 25% of my beans left so I said no I have no food over voice chat, but at the same time I misclicked in game so my character took out the beans and started eating them in right in front of him....

He just goes "errm ok" and runs off

WTF! I was fully loaded up, m4, 2x60 clip mags (empty but still had em). Food, water, han guns, med kits the lot. I log out in the middle of nowhere, log back in 2 hours later on the same server and at first it's just a black screen with noise in the background so I exit and log in again and I'm back at the coast with nothing.

THATS BLOODY FRUSTRATING!

so this happened to me tonight, i had a m4 with a 560 round in it and 2 30 rounds and 1 40 round, red dot pristine, bayonet, handrails, mag-pull butt. handgun with 5 clips and about 80 extra bullets. 3 saline kits, and a full med kit. handcuffs, handcuff keys, compos, food+water and a full military load of cloths and tried loading in to "the Irish guard" server and black "please wait" nothing so i logged off and tried again and boom!!!! everything gone.... two days looting running the map and murdering gone.

after that i said OK fine lets start over, so i did cos i spawned in elektro and my friend wasn't to far, i managed to get a handgun with bullets and a mosin with no ammo and waiting for him on the hill above the town. he got shot and killed just as he got to the hill, he was fully kitted ok at the time so i ran to where he died and found the guy looting him, i started shooting and got 3 hits when the guy logged right in front of me!!!!!! i hope to god that that wasn't one of yo guys from here cos if it was o boy.

and the rest of the night fallowed in the same fashion, fail after fail after fail till it was 2 in the morning and said f**k it i am going to rant on here then go to bed.

No, you can just drink directly out of the disinfectant bottle.
But you can force feed people disinfectant to poison them.

it is well worth it but don't expect it to be in a 100% playable state, or even 50%. you will find bugs and faults all over the game that will piss you off but just remember you are buying into a working progress. if that doesn't sound like your cup of tea then you would be best off waiting till full release and paying that little more.

As long as you remember that its still INCREDIBLY early alpha.

Its an amazing game as is, as you can do pretty much anything you feel like. bandits permitting ofc.

Yea it's worth it not much will change in the overall game it will be adding tweaks and fixes from here on.

It will be a good 12 months before it's classed as finished.

Ah there will be tons of more new stuff coming and not just tweaks/fixes. Definitely worth getting before it goes up in price.

Hi Lads I'm "Havok_Irl" that was on last night.
Have only a blue tooth mic that's lagging for some reason so don't use it , have ordered an old school wired headset when I get it I'll be much more verbal.

Which teamspeak server do ye use ?

I think someone suggested a thread of standalone in game names , we should defo get one going.

I'v lone wolfed it a few times now, visit the airfields get all the gear and then get shot by someone I never see or hear.
I need back-up big to to start enjoying the game agin.

I'v been keeping to the irish guard server trying to meet people.

If ya see me on ,walk on over I usually rather be killed then KOS

Similar thing happened me last night, was on TiG with lots of gear, got some message about something like an authentication timeout. Fair enough, tried another server, and there was me on the beach in me t-shirt.

Bo11ocks, says I, and disconnect in a hurry. Looking at the menu, my dude was looking like a fresh spawn. Looked for TiG again, logged in, still had my gear. Tried another few, still had it!

I think a good tactic might me that if you spawn fresh when you shouldn't, log the hell out before it's "remembered". Or I might be mad wrong.

TheFairy

Yeah if you spawn in without your gear, just leave the server and try another, it usually comes back. For those playing in the TiG server is the 4 hour respawn quick enough, or should it be 3? I dont want to encourage server farmers who join servers when they see them restarting to farm their cheap loot!!!!

4 hours is plenty for me any less and you will get a community of farmers.

there was a good few on last night, it filled up about 12 and when i was logging off last night/this morning at 2am there was still a good few on. i think for me and my friends we have found our server

now we just have to find a part of the map that we like and rule it "mad max style"

also the character name thread sounds good i think i will start it now and post a link in here.

J-W

How about taking Kabanino,it's small enough to control , has weapon spawns , doesn't attract as much attention / snipers as the airfields, and we can make raids on the military base, Green Mountain and the main airfield near by....... and I happen to have logged off near there last night

Ah, to be fair to Zombie fiction you always have to go for the head!

But I can imagine that being a bummer. I'm getting reasonably well kitted out and I'm not looking forward to when I inevitably bite the dust and have to starta gain.

any of you happen to be at the NE airfield right now?

ShadowHearth

Full m4 ( worn )
20 30 Full mags + 30 Spare

Hunters pants + Green jumper
Medic kit + food + flask with water
Most important - Can opener! :pac:

Wetbench4

This has to be the most addictive barely completed game i've ever played.

Whats the story with the books scattered around??

Just left a huge castle on a hill in the middle of a forest, between the two northern airfields, nice spot. Headed towards ne airbase from nw airbase where i only found the handgun, after searching every building in the whole place. Did find a walkie talkie though which i have no idea how to work, if it even works. Cant wait to see how this game turns out.
