Zigmidge posted:How do you use the crates? I lost a full set of weapons into the ether of the wooden box I built. You just drag items onto them, and it goes inside. You can look inside them (and any container like clothes with pockets, etc) by expanding them by looking at them in the proximity area along the left side and clicking the little triangle on the item box. My guns and ammo stay after logging in and out. It's supposed to be permanent. However, other people can find your box and loot your poo poo. I did read that ammo in gun magazine will occasionally disappear, so unload your ammo. JoaoVitorBF posted:No anti-cheat? When will they add one? Today or tomorrow is the ETA. Why someone would cheat in a survival game is kinda weird, but people are weird I guess.

I think I will get the game, then. I have always wanted to play a survival game like that, but all the ones that were made to this date are poo poo. Is it at least decent to play solo? I don't think I will join any clan/group.

I've had fun playing it solo but I imagine it being more fun in small groups of 2-3 or so, the main drawback of solo'ing is that you probably will need to skimp on some skills needed for either making certain types of ammo or survival stuff, e.g. you can only make 9mm ammo if you have Lv2 handguns and only make rifle ammo with Lv2 rifles, but you can pick your starting stats to allow a lot

Is there any point in having higher intelligence or whatever when creating a character? Are there any underground bunkers that are better than others? How many bullets does it take to kill one of those loving mech bros? Enjoying the game quite a bit so far, lag / netcode or whatever is pretty annoying

The survival skill from intelligence let's you build/cook more stuff I think, I imagine sniping helps with breath and whatnot, camouflage and awareness are two skills that define whether your character even gets rendered at far distances/when prone, there's a really weird system designed to make investing in those skills useful, seems a bit weird. Basically awareness allows you to see them further, camouflage makes the distance you're seen shorter. Shooting at any point I think renders you for miles though. It's v odd. Also p sure bunker loot is p similar but definitely some places have different rooms that are more likely to have tons of little ammo boxes

Just had a three hour session with a buddy and we moved maybe half a grid square in that entire time. (There are 16 squares for the entire map 4x4) We found all these weird towers with blinking lights that looked like they might bisect the island possibly. We also found some document in a bunker that talked about UFOs and also a newspaper about the Titanic sinking. There is some weird poo poo going on. We found some dudes loot stash and I got my first MP5 magazine! We also only ran into one other player the entire time, and he hauled rear end when he saw us. Was a fun night. This game rules.

Well, it's pretty much going to happen regardless. PUBG has been fighting this poo poo for over a year, and Tarkov has been coming up with their own and still has people glitching around. People dumb. Not sure how Fortnite handles it. JoaoVitorBF posted:I think I will get the game, then. I started a "solo" character on another server to play with and it's been fun. There is a lot to see in this game. If you don't like PVP much, you can play offline mode, or pick a lower populated server so you really only run into folks very very rarely. Even then you can probably just run away. I think they hit a good balance with 64 people to a server, it keeps it low key. Philthy fucked around with this message at 04:57 on Sep 2, 2018 |

Do certain foods constipate you? If so doesn't that make them op because you don't have to stop to poo? Just like in real life.

We have some guys playing on the PUBG Discord: https://discord.gg/k33kvs The Tarkov discord also has some people playing too. I play this game a bit, but I tend to get bored with it easily. People really seem to get exciting for the pooping, I guess, but I'm not seeing anything here that DayZ didn't have.

It has good mix of what makes PUBG and Tarkov fun set in a huge open world, IMO. I never played DayZ, so I dunno. People who played this and like it crap all over DayZ, so i'm not sure how that works. Maybe I should just try DayZ and see wtf.

DayZ has been on early access since 2013, and the development is basically dead right now. The game runs on Arma 3's engine, so it's buggy as hell for a survival game, and those bugs will probably never get fixed.

So just a heads up for when people start surviving longer; you need Medium skill in any weapon to craft its ammo/special weapons. Handguns allows 9mm crafting, Rifles crafts all other ammo. Melee allows you to make the sword. Ammo crafting is a lead plate (crowbar a car battery or find it), gunpowder, metal scrap and a toolbox. 20 crafts per lead plate, ~10 per the white toolbox, 15 for the red, 1 per metal scrap. Makes 5 ammo every time of every type. Which doesn't seem like a lot but so far I haven't gotten into any real spray and pray gun fights given the lethality of the game. Even a .22 will go through a military helmet.

They weren't kidding about the loot in bunkers. It's ridiculous. I saw two of every gun, magazines, piles of ammo, bullet proof vests, helmets, and on and on. I didn't get out alive, and will never see that corpse again. I am guessing those bunkers will be tuned because if I had gotten out, good god. Thankfully I've got my kill stash! ..on the other side of the map.

Some of the bunkers are hilariously easy to get into. Some of them are basically guaranteed death and might need some tweaking.

Unfortunately it also basically removes all of the content they added to SA over the years so it's back to slightly better but still a 15 year old engine shitshow with no content.

thegoat posted:Which ones are which? Thanks! I haven't tried all of them, but by this map, Bunker 14 is fairly easy to enter from the south, Bunker 12 is pretty easy from the NE and Bunker 5 seems to be sort of a coin flip due to some AI funkiness but I have about 75% success getting in there from the NW. A lot of the others have mechs that patrol directly in front of the entrance in a way that's basically impossible to get past. New patch that might make some of them a little easier; SCUM Patch Notes posted:Added Anti cheat, server admin options and much more! Check down bellow!

Those sentry adjustments won't make them easier to infiltrate but you won't be dying to a lucky headshot that shreds all your armour from across the tarmac behind cover anymore. http://www.scummap.org/ Use this to give yourself navigational goals.

I've just started playing and spawned near the boot camp, there's 3 bunker looking buildings on the northeast side i think? that are fairly easy to run into and out of as there's only 2 sentries that go up and down 2 parallel roads. Just get right up to the wall and there's a hole like 15 feet across from the 3 bunkers. I was able to get fully geared up with military clothing and found a couple hiking backpacks and more guns and ammo that i could even carry. There's also a hunting camp just to the northeast of it also and i'm not sure if someone was camped there or if it's just a normal spawn thing, but there was a table that had about 30 stacks of raw horse meat on it too if you need food. The rest of the buildings to me aren't really worth it due to having large amounts of windows. VietCampo fucked around with this message at 17:27 on Sep 2, 2018 |

It turns out that all the stuttering was caused by the depth of field. Disabled it on the settings ini file and the game is running smooth again.

Maybe. yeah, the nerf to sentries was HARD. they used to fuckin noscope you from 200 meters and now can scarcely hit a stationary target from standoff distance. great news if you wanted to get at some of the good loot without trying to outsmart the patrol route.

Yep. The worst part of the game is the downtime between cities/bunkers where nothing happens because there's nothing around you except trees. And you have to keep holding W and controlling stamina for the whole trip.

The small and normal size toolboxes are needed to craft ammo. The small one will craft 5 bullets at a time, while I think the larger one does 10 at a time. You'll need gunpowder, lead plate, and scrap metal to create the bullets. You also need a level or two in handguns / rifle to craft bullet respectively. If you dont have a gun yet, you probably should make a stash somewhere and stuff it in there.

Is there a good way to level up your survival skill? I can't craft a lot of things because I don't have enough survival skill.
