davebo posted:Well that's what I mean, are there set spawn points and is it random or would they think to include code that maybe doesn't spawn you 8 km away from someone you were partied up with or simply assume you might want to spawn at a point relatively nearby where you last died? Sounds like you're saying it is random. Is there even a party system in this yet or just group up with people and walk together? Yo man, I'm having fun. $20 is a half day at Bryce. Go for it and I'll try to help you out as much as I can! I should be on more next week than I was this previous one.

Well since GTA6 got delayed until March I guess that's all I need to be recruited. Between work and vacation I'm gonna try to hop into this game a little into February so I'll spy on the thread so I have an idea of the goings-on.

I know it's fun to poo poo all over this game and SOE, but I'll be damned if it isn't one of the best EA games I've played for a long time. Especially in this genre. The pace they are keeping with updates and what not is pretty good as well. Had a pretty fun time joining up with a big group of people and roaming around. I think they were looking to kill some rear end in a top hat streamer or something, I dunno. Didn't care. Had fun.

This is why you kill random suspicious zombies in the middle of nowhere. Thanks, anonymous player who died! E: Just found another, this one with 69 shotgun shells, hatchet and shotgun. Space Skeleton fucked around with this message at 14:34 on Jan 24, 2015 |

Before the goons picked a server on the first day I was running around on a PvP, 1st person only server and really like it. I'd be up for trying out a new server if there is interest.

Maybe one of these patches they'll actually fix the loot. Every patch it's the same thing. Start out as soon as the servers go back up, manage to find some decent stuff, get killed and then spend the rest of the time not finding poo poo. Not to mention, I swear with every patch they reduce the amount of zombies that are in the game. I think I saw more bears than I did zombies.

It's quickly getting to be roughly on par with the DayZ mod. There's definitely a few bugs that can feel game breaking at times, but they patch the game at a stupidly fast pace, and the game IS fun.

So I'm having to roll back my titan drivers to get the game to work properly. In other news, I would like to start a more hardcore PVP offshoot when they add structure reinforcement, working together with Detroit/Goondor. We will barricade the police station, then role play the first half of the first Mad Max movie.  Someone has to bring law and order back to this wasteland.

Those new metal doors are basically invulnerable. It doesn't do much on a shack near the ground but on a platform I think there is no way inside if the platform is high enough off the ground because you can't seem to break the door and the login invisible wall thing doesn't work since it's on a platform. I tried crowbar and axe, so could be I just didn't have the right tool, but I can't imagine what the tool is.

We really just need for them to add civilian building reinforcement like smed was saying, barricading doors, windows, etc. That way you can turn any existing structure into a base, which is much preferable to building shanty shacks.

I thought the right tool would be a shotgun but that barely did anything to metal doors as well. A bunch of people with axes would probably work.

They really just need to add a recipe for C4/breaching charges like in Rust, and make the doors invincible beyond that, to make it an efficient investment of risk/reward vs resources.

 You can make IEDs, which I imagine are the "right tool" now that I think about it. What makes those? Gunpowder and...?

Turns out it's a landmine (metal shard + metal sheet + gunpowder) combined with a scrap of cloth. You light it by using a lighter on it like a campfire. After 15 seconds it kabooms dealing massive damage to structures.

After 15 seconds it kabooms dealing massive damage to structures. I just tried 3 of these against a metal door and a large shack and not much happened except some fire. I figured I'd come to the forums to ask for a raiding 101 for these things. Another base I went to raid had been raided already, with the door standing but the shack destroyed. I don't know how to achieve that since I saw no health bars appearing on the shack or the door after the IEDs.

Loot is overwhelming when a patch hits and the servers get reset, but already a day later it's a loving wasteland and there's gently caress all to find or do. I'm going to put the game down for a few weeks and I'm fully expecting every patch to have a "changed loot spawn rules" in the notes somewhere. Still, if they keep up this patch schedule I think it'll entertain me for a long time.

Is there literally no loot anywhere always? loving cabins in the middle of the woods have nothing either. Every time I run into a dude, they have a hatchet or spear. So... what the hell

Since the last update I find it to be much better; perhaps you're on a high-pop server? I honestly think that the map size they've given us is too small for the number of players they allow onto it, hence the loot issues.

Containers almost never have loot, it doesn't seem to respawn properly yet. You've better off running though buildings and spot checking for stuff that's lying around, world loot seems to respawn(though slowly). It's always good to keep checking the dev feeds to find out when restarts will happen. There's a massive amount of loot right after a restart.
