there's a way to hide it while having a primary weapon equipped but I'm not stupid enough to share that on a public forum.
you hit backspace with it equipped, it's not like its some mystical trick

god DAMN IT
YOU RUINED THE GAME
now people can walk up to me with a barret .50 cals and shoot me in the face and it's all your fault
Just had a wonderful experience
I was walking along the cliff face east of the big city, heading north for some towns with my saiga and sig sauer, doing constant recon like I do with my 'nocs, when I saw a guy crawling around with a combat knife. I watched him for a bit and eventually asked in proximity chat if he needed any supplies. He said he could use some food but all he had to trade was water, so I went up to him slowly and gave him the rest of my food (2 instant oatmeals) for free, and offered to help him scavenge for any more food, but he said he had it under control and we parted ways.
I'm afraid to log into my character now in fear of all my awesome shit getting taken away from me
Bandit only safe-settlements will really not be safe-settlements though... Theyll be places where people with big guns kill everyone, and perhaps you once are able to get in there with noone there, so you can place your stuff into the global inventory, but then you are killed when you log in again.
Hopefully bandits will start killing each other at their own safe-zone now haha...
Wish loading server browser list went faster.

Agreed.
Instead it decides to wait until we ping the 150+ FUCKING SERVERS!
Love the threads on the forums asking why their account serial is locked.
It bugs the hell out of me when someone kills me and doesn't pick up my shit, what a waste.
Also had some kid slug me with 2 magazines after spawning a new character. Wish I had the supplies to freely expend ammo like that.
Looks to be shaping up to be a pretty sweet game though, can't wait to see how it turns out.
[QUOTE=0FucksGiven;38134963]ok, bandit[/QUOTE]
Except I'm not, I only shoot people if they shoot at me first, but it's fucking boring just fighting shitty as fuck invisible zombies that die so easily
I mean fuck, I used to go out of my way to hunt people that just killed newspawners, I don't like them, but bandits are a crucial part of the game
[QUOTE=The very best;38136270]Except I'm not,[B] I only shoot people if they shoot at me first[/B], but it's fucking boring just fighting shitty as fuck invisible zombies that die so easily[/QUOTE]
That's a good way to loose a gunfight.
[QUOTE=laserguided;38136279]That's a good way to loose a gunfight.[/QUOTE]
Not if you're careful, besides. You don't want to shoot somebody just for the sake of it and risk attracting more people.
In saying that, if the person poses a risk or I generally feel they're fishy and they refuse to move out of where I need to go, I'll probably shoot them eventually
The map needs grids.
I found some allright War Z footage.
Looks like some good squad scavenging action with a bit of PvP at the end.
I think this pretty much convinced me to buy the game. Now, if only I had some spare money...

My experiences have been alright so far, yesterday i teamed up with quite a few strangers quite easily, even had one guy save us from a bandit that had a sniper, and we let him keep the sniper as thanks.
I think they should consider the bandits having a different skin, like dayz had in the beginning, as then it would be easier to see if the bandit was one or not, they could have only small differences like tattoos on the body, i think one of the devs said they might have the eyes turn red when you're a bandit, but i dont think that'll make much difference since they'll kill you before you get close enough to see.

No, that will have the same problem that DayZ had. People who arent bandits, but have killed "Bandits that havent gotten the tag yet" who attacked them will be tagged as bandits, and forever be shot on sight.

Yeah makes sense, cant really think of a way to get past that, maybe if you've killed a bunch of survivors in one play session you could have a bandit skin.
If facepunch does its own server, would be cool to have some rules for people who want to be bandits, where they have to wear the black mask etc, then we could have faction war events.
Isn't there an NDA? How are people being allowed to take all this footage and put it online?
[QUOTE=Creid;38136493]Isn't there an NDA? How are people being allowed to take all this footage and put it online?[/QUOTE]
Yeah but everyone totally ignored that when they bought into the alpha.

I don't think they really care too much anyway do they? They were just asking for help filling out the wiki I thought.
[QUOTE=Creid;38136493]Isn't there an NDA? How are people being allowed to take all this footage and put it online?[/QUOTE]
The footage a few posts above was done by the WarZ guys, or at least under their permission.
There's quite a few more videos like it with the same situation.

This was staged.
I just thought, since bandit settlements wont really be "safe" couldn't you just put stuff in those locked crates the devs said they want to implement, you could just put stuff you want in your global in the crate, lock it with a code, then access it with your survivor character and put it in your global inventory.
So, before buying this game, is it perma death or not? You lose everything when you die, right?

Bingo.

There will be two difficulties / modes.
Normal and Hardcore.
On normal, when you die you lose all your items but not the character and you will be able to revive the character after an amount of time. (It's 60 minutes in the alpha)
On hardcore, you lose your items AND the character.
So okay, I was approaching the tunnel, there were a lot of zombies so I decided to use my Handgun and gave almost all of them a headshot.
After I came out of the tunnel one zombie was standing again in the middle of a lot of corpses. I decided to go for him with my hammer but when I approached him all the fucking dead zombies on the ground I previously killed stood up again.
Of course I ran like shit.
Oh God, there's so many people wanting name-tags on the WarZ forums.
Please don't listen to them, Developers!
