Anyone know if Hammerpoint have an official website?
[QUOTE=lotusking;38136973]how do you use a guestpass?[/QUOTE]
Guess passes can only be used starting the 31st.
I think the reason a lot of people seem to think this has a worse community than DayZ in terms of everyone killing each other is simply because of the lack of voice. Nobody wants to take the extra five seconds to type to somebody else when they could have been easily killed while typing. With voice you're not really hindered. Voice is also a bit more personal. I'd find it harder to kill somebody I had been talking with on voice than I would killing somebody in text (which I wouldn't do anyways because of what I previously mentioned.)
So is it first person or third person or is there like a button to switch? Because I've seen both in screens and I'm a bit confused
Press C to switch from 1st to 3rd and vice versa.
And going on the topic about them hiding guns if they don't have them held out.
You'll see the pistol holstered on their belt if its in their secondary weapon slot.

Pretty sure all the models have a handgun on them somewhere too, so it's a bit confusing sometimes.
Anyone up for a game?
It'll be pretty amusing when bandit camps are in, since i can see groups of survivors camping the camps killing bandits as revenge for them camping the safe zones.
also the inevitable bandit whining.
I think I've become one of the bandits I hate. I was following a guy around yesterday and noticed he had a shotgun and I was running low so I took him out and took his backpack and supplies and his shotgun, I felt like I needed it more than him so I justified it to myself. He fought back anyways, he probably would have killed me had I not killed him.

That's so true.
I wouldn't mind seeing like a town or city thats all fenced off as a safezone.
(Maybe a city like the big one in colorado; or the kidney-town(lake-town) sized city being walled off.)
[QUOTE=Mr Flexi;38136609]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.[/QUOTE]
I really do not see the difference. One you lose just items and can revive your character, the other you lose items but your character is deleted. In hardcore can't you just remake the character after you die? If so than hardcore seems to let you play the same character basically after you die instantly.

[QUOTE=rezOnance;38137476]That's so true.[/QUOTE]
I hate pressing the f# buttons to type, its weird and I always forget and type out in global when I want proximity or proximity when I want global.
I'm hoping once the map opens up more, that there is going to be a city bigger than Colorado City

You will lose all of your skills and experience in hardcore. Normal you get to keep them.

There will be a difference later on.
There'll be experience points and small stat boost things you can unlock with them around release or something.

The sizes are fine for me personally, they just need more of them if they're going to continue to be that size.
There's only like 5 or so worth going near and nearly always 2 or 3 will have been raided already.
[url]http://thewarzcartographer.com/#2/-8.8/70.0[/url] current map of warz with locations noted, should be pretty useful
Well thats it, I'm buying this now. Do I have to wait to use that "1 month stronghold hosting" until game is released/later in beta or can I do it directly to just play with some friends without assholes killing us until we've got hang on the game and stuff?
Any groups planned for tonight? really enjoyed the last ones with Dadillsta and Ricenchicken

You cannot use them yet.
I assume custom servers will be allowed after release, possibly during beta, we'll see.

We should definitely get one going.
How many civilian kills does it take to become a bandit? I was never a fan of the whole bandit system thing. I mean, if someone is shooting me with a shotgun, would I [i]not[/i] return fire, just because he is classed as a civilian? If I kill the guy, my "civilians killed" counter goes up. But he wasn't a civilian, he was clearly a bandit-in-progress. So it's a little bullshit if you ask me, classing me as a bandit for defending myself.

This is why I hated the karma system in DayZ. I truly hope WarZ gets rid of it too.
As for how many you need, I'm not entirely sure. I've seen people say after 25 kills, another said 10 and a few have said 5 or so. (the latter clearly can't be true)
Guest passes for whoever wants them.

Uh this'll sound stupid but, I bought the game, where do I download it? I'm either blind or theres no "obvious" download button on site.

it shows up in an email.

Yeah, there's no download link on the site, you get the link in the email I believe.
Not entirely sure why they went with that decision.
Damn went through three accounts pretty fast, got bandits coming out my ass.

Can always just delete the character and remake it.
But yeah, God the bandit population is big.
