My biggest surprise with the 1.0 announcement, is that the devs seem to be happy with the magazine system and don't seem to plan to update it. A21 has been around long enough for most players to realise the majority of magazines are useless, and if they just rapid-fire quests they'll get most...

It makes a sound like breaking a leg when it triggers. In practice I rarely hear it, because I've already killed the zombie, or for the stronger zombies I hit and run a bit to try and avoid injuries. I imagine it might be useful at earlier stages, when you're facing walking zombies and they...

Does anyone know how to fix this bug with the screen bobbing up and down randomly? It happens intermittently and even with low settings so I can't tell what the trigger is. I was just learning to live with it, but I missed a couple of shots on this cop and he exploded because the stupid bobbing...

It definitely depends on your playstyle/role in the team. After day 30 I rarely fight zombies except during BM, so there's no point weighing myself down when I'm mostly crafting/mining/building/doing trader runs and not even needing any armour anyway. This is also why I tend to remain with...

You should also consider that with Better Barter, you can easily get a tier 1-3 auger by day 10, and add to that the higher likelihood of finding art of mining 5 (create stacks of ores which give you massive exp) if you're constantly checking traders, and you can spend one day mining 6000 of...

This is why better barter is still king. Take the AK, sell it and use the funds for purchasing a new crossbow, or a new pistol, or buying the parts/schematics for these items. Yes you might get a t5 crossbow/pistol from your first t3 quest, but you might also get items which just happen to be...

I am surprised no one has linked to the Youtube video going over this exact topic. Another thing to consider is that Augers use gas, which means you either have to mine oil shale or harvest cars, thus reducing efficiency. However one trip to the desert for the oil is sufficient to last you a...

I guess better barter breaks the game in the sense that it disrupts the general flow of progression by allowing people to get end-game gear without doing end-game quests. But then you can get end-tier loot 60 levels early just by going to the wasteland, and you don't even need to do quests--just...
