Awesome! Thats great!!! WOO
i see the streamers get private servers but the rest of the public cant even pay for 1?
then do something to EARN your own instead of hatin on others…
Sounds good. Very good.
I have played this game 195 hours in three and a half week. I believe that the game has enormous potential if you are able to find a solution to KOSsing. For some, the game seems to be “Counter-Strike”, and this makes the regular PvP servers to be Hardcore BattleRoyale servers for everyone (HC because both players, the attacker and attacked, don’t usually have same level of gear – plus there are the zombies – so it really steps up from the BR, in some concrete sense).
I have played on such “RP” server which had a rule to ban KOSsing and making it so that you have to declare your intention to engage in violence. This made the game very fun in certain aspects (PvE with the uncertainty of who will follow the rule and who not – since the RP servers didn’t have their own way to ban rule-breakers out) but in other hand it took something out of the game: you can’t scan the horizon from your base / balcony at the city / woods in search of long or mid-range targets. No way to warn a fellow running towards your base / claimed house / cabin that “hey, you better turn or I’m gonna shoot you”. Other than the warning shot to legs or intentionally missing the target.
So it seems to me that a server that has a rule against KOSsing is currently the best available option for those of us who don’t wish to play Counter-strike last-man-standing mod with zombies. And yet, it takes something out of the game. Somekind of solution to this, middleground, could be the ideal. To make it so that people could form their own communities around the map, interact with strangers without 90% chance to get shot on sight, and chance the game from 5 to 45min rush for record kill-streak to something more like apocalyptical zombie survival game.
Perhaps one step towards this could be more visible signs, such as whistling, waving a torch, putting your gun down to the ground while holding your other hand up like “okay, okay, don’t shoot, i’m putting it down”, visible warning shot to air (now you can’t see if you aim to air, so it should be just animation and a shot at nowhere by pressing some button) and stuff like that.
And servers that can somehow prevent Counter-Striking.
Thanks for the game. It has been best in ages.
for now this game only needs BAN SYSTEM as soon as possible. Wasting my time on finding stuff and ta taaa someone finding me in a toilet while just standing there..(he is aiming me while joining the toilet,im not a noob!)
i played this game 250+ hours and never give up except dying by a cheater. killing by a player is fun too. going back and gangin him or dying again. doesn’t matter if it is really FAIR.. but cheating in an online game is really F**K!!!!
Plz let me play this game its the best game H1Z1 awesome LOVE it
Funny when the question about female characters came up you look around the room.. all males with the exception of lone one on her FB.
They need to fix animals/zombies from giving out damage while you are inside a vehicle and thru walls. Also glitching through doors while its closed.
The zombies sliding on the ground doing damage after you knock them down is a little annoying as well. :P
