[QUOTE=eddy-tt-;38073131]I'm thinking of maybe getting this but I'm unsure.
I didn't like DayZ due to how annoyingly hard it was to start off without getting your face raped by a bandit or a hacker and the huge lack of loot in most areas.
Is this any different, because from what I've seen media wise it looks a lot more casual than what DayZ is and I kinda like that.[/QUOTE]
Its less clunkier than DayZ currently, and much easier to get into (My opinion). You may run into shit now and then, but if you get the game (Pioneer/Legend for alpha access too or just wait for beta, etc) I don't think you'll regret it.

Can we not start this again.
I think I found the same fucking guy that bashed me over the head with a bat.
Well, his loot at least. I found an M9 helmet that was green and a spiked bat, no sign of my M16 or 5 shotguns though :(

Why would you carry all that on you?

Because I'm crazy.
The only reason he found me was because I found some dead guy and had to shoot a zombie to get to a water bottle [a fatal mistake]

I find that Europeans tend to be more friendlier than Americans in this game, every game I enter in EU I get like 2 people I can team up with
Man, I'm seriously thinking about buying the 30 dollars package. I don't care how shit the game is, you don't get to play a fresh new multiplayer game very often.

Not hard to believe, Dayz was pretty much PVP free while the servers were just in NZ but within about a week of american ones being hosted it turned into what it is now.
Im hoping that once the safe zones are implemented itle deter people from just killing absolutely everyone as (at least from what ive heard) if your a bandit you wont be allowed inside to trade etc.

NPC guards that shoot you on sight. (If you're a bandit)
Does anyone else think the DayZ music sounds like the Splinter Cell: Conviction theme?
The game has been out for 2 days and its already fucking stupid to the point im dying within 5 minutes of spawning because someone comes up behind me with a bat and kills me.
Whats the point, i have absolutely nothing on me.
If I buy a mask from marketplace then die do I lose the mask forever?

Don't stick around spawn points. Once the map is enlarged, I doubt spawnkilling will be an issue anymore as well. But until then, just stick with a friend (if you're able)
Also, people who are wanting to play this afternoon (Around 5:00 EST) can send me a PM if you're interested in playing with me and a group of friends. We have a teamspeak 3 server to use as well.

Yes, but you can also find everything thats in the marketplace and things that aren't.
[QUOTE=MaikkiBoi;38072247]So what's the deal with people being cunts in every survival game?
Like, what's the point to shoot someone for a flashlight? Just why the hell would you do that?[/QUOTE]

There are some pretty fucking nasty sounding things going on in the forest at night.

Not as bad as the zombies that when aggro'd, sound like somebody experiencing some extremely painful explosive diarrhea. Sometimes that scares me more than the zombies themselves.

Flares actually stays for a very long time! Few pics of my place where I spent the night.

I wouldn't mind grouping up with you guys or other fellow fp'ers either. Like I said in the last page, if there's anyone who wants to roll with me and a couple friends, send me a pm.

What other good loot locations are there other than in the big city?
[QUOTE=JakeAM;38073603]What other good loot locations are there other than in the big city?[/QUOTE]
Military outposts, police stations, cars.
Seriously, I found a forward grip for a rifle in a car that I thought was empty.
I died now once, cause my game was minimized 5 min. He dehydrated.

That sucks :suicide: The worst thing that happened to me so far was me dying randomly by jumping and losing my bat.
There's a town whose inhabitants had no way to be found other than the stray zombie or two.
[img_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/RDpOD.jpg[/img_thumb]
found out where they went.
seriously every SINGLE time there's like 15 zombies there

Yeah, I know that town. Pretty good looting zone too.
Laughing my off, disconnect in the middle of a building to put stuff in bank, spawn behind a bandit with mossberg, backpack, and tons of ammo, fuck him up before he realizes I spawned behind him.
Found a M107
So for those of you who are playing, how long does the day/night cycle take? More specifically, about how long does night last?
I know time is sped up for the game, but I'm not sure exactly how much.
Just had the best loot run ever.
I was investigating the abandoned Military Checkpoint at the collapsed tunnel south of the Main City. As I was sneaking in to avoid a mini hoard of zombies I checked an abandoned truck to discover a Medikit and a M4 Assault rifle!
Very happy and eager I pressed forward to the heart of the checkpoint to discover something amazing.
About 10 flashlights all lined up on some desks, but in the middle of the camp there was a MP7 Submachine gun and a M14 Assault Rifle, all with full mags, as well as a Large Backpack and some food and medical supplies.
On the verge of dying of excitement I grabbed everything that was not nailed down and moved out of the checkpoint quickly.
I think I am confident enough now to carry a gun on me.
First ever experiences
Hid behind random buildings like a little bitch for 10 minutes
Got jumped by a lone female zombie
Lightly patted her with a flashlight
Died with nothing more than the starting gear
Fuck
