Survived a clusterfuck at night, earlier. I should have been dead at least twice there.

Made it out, too. I got like 7.5K XP out of that raid.
Not sure why Shadowplay broke the sound. Oh well.
So what's the general feel about the game for you guys? I'm kind of on the fence about trying the beta but the game looks really cool from what I've seen

If you like hardcore survival looter shooters I'd say you'll have fun.

Hatchlings as a concept is kinda stupid because even 1 Scav run (like just straight up extracting without looting anything) gives you enough money for 4-5 Makarovs.

That's not the point though? The point of hatchlings is a zero risk pure gain run. Spawn in as scav, get popped either instantly or after fucking about for 10-15 minutes and lose it all, wait an hour, neat. Or you can be a hatchling, run to crates, dump everything in your container and that's 'pure' profit, then you can go hack up a scav and get his shit and maybe ya win, maybe not. It's just faster and safer than any other style of playing.

Oh totally. Especially those that have gamma containers. I meant it more in a way that it's the least fun way to play the game IMHO. Right now I'm almost exclusively playing Forest and even with Makarov runs it can be a ton of fun trying to extract.

Idea to nerf Hatchlings: only insured items should persist in the secure container after death.
Also scavs sometimes shout "CHEEKI-BREEKI". Fucking 15/10 Battlestate games.
They should add gear score. So you get matched with similar opponents. No more hatchling vs pmc pros matches.
Maybe?
[QUOTE=Shenesis;52579463]Is there a PvE mode? Game looks nice but I don't really like having to worry about other players who may be out there for my stuff. :v:[/QUOTE]
There is, but you can't get or lose anything in there, so it's more of a practice mode.
[QUOTE=DaBeaver;52579473]There is, but you can't get or lose anything in there, so it's more of a practice mode.[/QUOTE]
Offline mode, which is also just there for debugging purposes right now, will be removed in the future.

one of the player scav mumbles is 'gg ez' aswell lol

Some sort of PVE coop mode would be nice. Maybe a lot more scav spawns and only 4-5 players or something so it's still dangerous.
People weren't kidding when they said to aim for the legs.

I didn't take the backpack and tactical rig because I'm a huge idiot apparently.
Loving the game but I'm having weird issues with some sort of lag(?). It runs perfectly smoothly but every two seconds or so there's this interruption. Really noticeable in the foliage animation and while moving. Just a split second of dropped frames or rubber banding or something. I'm on gigabit internet and my rig falls well within the specs. Anyone else run into this?

I have read that if you get a second or so frame stop that is normally a player skav joining in the raid and it loading up the player and their gear; it could be that or just possibly memory leak?

It's too consistent to be that otherwise I'd have hundreds of scavs. But it is using about 1 gig of ram on it's own which I hear is normal. It doesn't progressively use more though so I don't think it's a leak.
Man, the netcode is so fucking weird when people start sprinting. Suddenly they start warping around.
I think I kinda figured out why people bring out full gear to Factory, there's usually a pair of dudes that camp Factory in full gear wasting other lesser equipped dudes and scavs, so I sometimes see other dudes with an AK trying to climb the foodchain and loot the apex mercs
also turns out you can equip 6 flashlights on a single shotgun

There's a screenshot somewhere. Basically you're a star
Holy smokes why didn't I do runs at woods before, the map is actually playable and it's really great for scav hunting.

You see, Ivan
When put 6 flashlights on shotgun
You become supernova
And kill enemies just by pointing your gun at them
I just had a terrible experience with desync - was walking normally through the woods with a friend when a hatchling somehow kills me desync'd - so on my end I didn't see or hear anything and suddenly died
My friend on the other hand, saw a hatchling suddenly teleport in front of him swinging wildly after I died
I might hold off on bringing out expensive gear that I hoard until it gets fixed
So based on the game region FAQ, if i buy it (my region shows as Other) i can play on everywhere but Europe?, and if its bought trough europe you can basically play anywhere?
Yo, anyone got a spare factory key for sale? Hit me up with a PM if you do.
Can't shoot them if all you see is blinding light.

Yeah. If you buy as a gift you can directly choose the region. Was actually cheaper for me to buy the Europe version than Other.
Having a good time just bringing out a suppressed TT-33 and a spare magazine
I feel like I'm playing MGS at factory when I headshot fully geared guys looting bodies :v:
I definitely should have died there.

Protip, you can use both those medkits in your pouch on different wounds at the same time.
This is frighteningly accurate.
