I hopped into survival for the first time in probably a month and it's hilarious now. There are zombies EVERYWHERE and you basically die when your stamina runs out, or survive if you're able to get to an unreachable location. Once you get some gear and your bearings it's not that bad but Daybreak basically said "you want zombies? gently caress it" and now people are crying about not being able to do anything except run from zombies. I don't think this will make the final release but it is a refreshing change to have dangerous zombies in a zombie game. Oh and while playing earlier today there was a system broadcast of a cheater being detected & banned, so it seems they have some sort of realtime cheat detection going on.

The increased zombie counts just mean I'm picking up more sticks and getting ammo/cloth/lighters faster. The increased bear count however is loving terror.

They should definitely look into FairFight, it's doing a pretty good job banning people in the Battlefield games at the moment. Someone in the Hardline thread recently posted a link to FairFight's Facebook page, which is basically them posting a bunch of links of quotes from forums where cheaters have been banned relatively quickly after using any sort of cheats. It looks to be the most effective anti-cheat I've ever played with, considering how mediocre Punkbuster is and how long it actually takes VAC to apply a ban during a wave.

When I hear FairFight I think how well it did in WarZ. Which it not much at all. The zombie hordes have definitely gotten a bit of a threat. It's amazing what horde you have coming after you after you looted a few urban areas.

Went on a water run to a well maybe 50 yards away. I used 40 arrows and then broke a 1/2 heath combat knife killing zombies while covering the filler. Then killed about 30 more that had followed us back to base. The zombie levels are crazy, trying to get anything done solo seems like it would be really really hard.

Ok they just posted this: Below is the Roadmap for game update intended for April 2nd: Zone export – We will be exporting the zone and it should catch a lot of erroneous terrain bugs including trees in the road, floating objects, and bad terrain that can easily flip vehicles New Dam – There will be a new Dam that replaces the old placeholder Dam. It is much larger and better reflects what a finished art asset should look like in H1Z1, rather than the old Dam which was created with cement block pieces. Male character model – A new character model will be added which will show a full body (chest and legs) as well as adds a lot of new wearable options to the game including face, gloves, and feet slots. Sidenote: Female character model is currently already being worked on. R380 Pistol – The R380 is a small pocket pistol available in the .380 caliber. This pistol boasts a high fire rate but minimal stopping power. Pickup Truck interior – A better detailed interior for the pickup truck that is more high res. Workbenches - Workbenches can be found in the world or crafted and placed. If you are close enough to the workbench you will be able to use it to create specific recipes. You don’t actually interact with the workbench at this time, you just need to have it in your proximity. It can be used to convert ammo into other types of ammo, break down guns into gun repair kits, or to create some of the existing recipes that would be too difficult to do by hand. Any type of ammunition can be broken down into “Gun Components”. Each bullet or shell will give you 1 Gun Component. You can then use 2 Gun Components to make any other type of ammunition. Guns can be dismantled into “Gun Parts”. Larger guns will give more gun parts. You can then use three gun parts to create a “Gun Repair Kit”. This repair kit can be used on weapons to repair them. Currently this will repair any weapon, but in the future it will be restricted to guns only. Metal crafting recipes will now require a workbench to create. This includes the recipes for Metal Sheets, Metal Pipes, Machete, Combat Knife, Bear Trap, Landmine, IED, and the above mentioned conversion recipes for ammo and guns. Anti-cheat – Continuing our efforts to provide a better anti-cheat service and stop more cheaters. Bug fixing – Continuously fixing bugs, both existing and anything new that pops up. Body sim performance improvements – The body sim was causing some server performance and has been improved to be less harsh on the server. Revised crude map – We are adding grid locations to the crude map to better help friends find each other.

I hope they mess it up real bad so players don't get notified when they're being restrained. I want to make friends with a random pubbie and then zip tie him while he's not looking.

So now we have handcuffs, body armor, and have to sleep in beds. Is there still fun to be had here? I haven't hopped in a while, was immediately ambushed by two guys with bows last time. As a side note to that, can you just calmly stand still with a bow while taking a beating and one-shot your attacker with ease? EDIT: It sounds like I'm against these changes, but considering last time I played with goons we kidnapped a pubbie, I'd totally be down for roadside "arrests" with the Pleasant Valley PD.

Is this better than DayZ SA yet? That surely isn't hard to do, right?

Getting hit makes you flinch, maybe even cancels the whole animation. I forget exactly, I just dodge around til I think I have room to make a shot. The game is definitely better than DayZ and I think now is in a decent enough state that its biggest problem is lack of goons. There are obviously hackers around but I can't remember the last time I ran into one. e: yesterday I was in several consecutive BRs that started with only 60-75 players, anyone see this before? easiest top 10s ever also dont play on requiem any more, pick a top 10 population server if you wanna do survival unless you enjoy killing zombies and tumbleweeds treerat fucked around with this message at 13:30 on Apr 12, 2015 |

If you're experiencing graphic issues after today's patch, like I was, the solution is yet again to delete UserOptions.ini out of the root folder. Every game. Every time. Dey break.

You can make moonshine already. There are alcohol torches. They've hinted moonshine will be part of the material ingredients for it. Putting powerful weapons at the end of the crafting tree is the only reason to have base resources I've yet seen. Edit: This patch broke: Door codes, bee boxes, doors on many buildings, bullet damage to doors and gates (One clip from a pistol can drop a door if shot at a close angle), turbo boosts on cars DOOMocrat fucked around with this message at 15:28 on Apr 24, 2015 |

A large number of CFC <ahem> Imperium goons who play the terrible spaceship game Eve Online are launching an invasion of H1Z1, and we would like to invite those intelligent goons among us who don't play that terrible game to join us in a jolly romp. Feel free to meet up with us on the Antidote server, using GOON<name> as your character name. We will be identified with the IMP tag. Plus, we have a mumble server to use! Find us ingame and ask for the information! Hope to see you soon! Cimber fucked around with this message at 11:46 on May 3, 2015 |
