H1Z1 Megathread - Early Access begins January 15! - Games

[QUOTE=TheNerdPest14;47068692]Is this game worth the twenty dollar ATM?[/QUOTE] I'm pretty sure it's going to be a free to play game, so not really but if you really want to start early yes?

From the amounts of fun I've had in it, hell yes. But there are bugs, glitches, some hackers, shit will be wiped, so be ready for that.

I never see anyone actually fighting zombies in videos, just other players. Are the zombies just a non threat in this?

[QUOTE=Ghost101;47071809]I never see anyone actually fighting zombies in videos, just other players. Are the zombies just a non threat in this?[/QUOTE] The zombies can be quite dangerous but they are nothing compared to players.

I'm liking the new ammo spawns. I feel like I find it in more places, but it's only 1-3 rounds at a time for the most part.

Suppose to be a lot more/ roaming hordes. But right now they're nothing challenging.

I'm loving the shit out of Battle Royale right now, it's so much fun. Just got first place in my last game, so intense.

I logged in right after servers went up last night, I ran around some hunting cabins and got two ARs and one hunting rifle, aaaaand 20 zombies banging on the door. Shit was pretty intense since I couldnt carry melee weapons due to the guns, but no ammo for the guns to shoot them with.

Me and 2 friends are hard at work on Winchesterville. We've set up 8 shacks with doors so far the the west of Cranberry across the bridge. Will be giving out door codes for those who need a safe place. When my friend was scouting out there before we got there, there were 3 people with AR's who tried to KOS him. They failed. Winchesterville was built on the blood of bandits.

[QUOTE=jiggu;47075898]Supposedly wooden spears are like cannons against your puny walls and your work will be destroyed Also people can just get up on a high ledge and snipe everyone in your home[/QUOTE] This is a peaceful place. And if it isn't, we 3 all have .308's, and two more people who are going to be helping also do.

I have easily had my money's worth. 20 bucks isn't much to begin with and I've had so many moments in this game that is just absolutely gut killing hilarious.

Its coming tonight, the 1st wipe™.

My experiences in the Rust forum have taught me that there's going to be an unprecedented level of crying and bitching from people who didn't realize wipes are going to be a thing in early access.

[QUOTE=Kurnuttaja;47078979]Its coming tonight, the 1st wipe™.[/QUOTE] 7AM PST is like 2 hours 30 min from now?

Servers are now down for a scheduled 4 hours [t]http://i.imgur.com/dkxznwN.jpg[/t] Strange things...

I think the new one makes the game look less graphically outdated, more lively and more natural. It will be interesting how the new system will make the fog and haze look.

So a friend just showed me how to win BR. Its really stupid... and boring...

This game is chuck full of hackers, the last three times I have died I have been killed by them (speedhacks etc) Loot stashes are useless as the hackers can see them from far away.

So, uh this happened. [t]http://cloud-4.steamusercontent.com/ugc/534010466785990998/1D4AAE1B3731DB5D45332B89673E9E9B07348A6E/[/t] I thought this wasn't supposed to happen? [editline]7th February 2015[/editline] I'm the Zoidberg on the left, screenie by my friend.

i feel like an idiot i just learned how to craft a bow today also found this [url]http://www.h1z1crafting.com/[/url]

Although I find it unlikely people don't know about it/similar, you reminded me to throw it out there. [url]http://www.h1z1db.co.uk/map[/url] and using /loc command.

^ That map got me so lost. Turns out X-Axis is up/down and Z-Axis is left/right. I only figured this out when I tried another map. That map is great but a side-note about the coordinate system would be nice.

That map is great but a side-note about the coordinate system would be nice.[/QUOTE] it's not the map's fault really, the devs for some reason made a really counter-intuitive coordinate system that goes against the gods of math

Also, the direction works in radians. Now the only thing I knew about radians was that if your calculator was set to use them, trigonometry calculations would get fucked. It's like they're deliberately making it difficult for us.
