    A couple issues on a new save

    Hi everyone, I wanted to ask for advice on two issues that I ran into during today's playthrough. Hopefully there's a quick fix.  The first is that the system tray (for the life of me I can't remember the technical name) continuously pops up every minute or so. It'll warn me of a wandering...

    PC Why I like the new loot system (as an miner/crafter)

    I'm kind of on the fence with this issue. I play with my GF so we always allocate roles and do our jobs. She's the looter and I'm the crafter/builder. It's nice that I can make her good tools and weapons before she can find better things.  On the other hand, I find it off putting to break open...

    PC your perk decisions drastically changes the A19 game

    I agree. I randomly saw on reddit how valuable the perks animal tracker and huntsman are. So yesterday with my GF, I started with those 2 and immediately found over 12 chickens. It's insanely good.

    PC Frustrating decision

    I get why you're pissed about this, I know for sure that I would be as well. That said, if pressing the "modify" button is the IRL equivalent of doing maintenance on a gun, it would certainly be unloaded. This seems like one of those annoying mechanics that doesn't actually improve gameplay by...

    PC Crossbow vs compound bow

    I agree with Ryan. The crossbow is my go-to choice for ranged combat. It took a lot of getting used to after swapping from the bow but nowadays it feels second nature. Even without a scope I feel like I can hit every shot I fire.

    PC Why can't we find a beaker?

    I didn't know they were given out as quest rewards. I'll have to do some tonight. Thank you!

    PC Why can't we find a beaker?

    Hey everyone So my girlfriend and I are playing on a LAN network and we've never seen a beaker. We're at day 41 right now, close to level 130, have pretty much everything we could need, but there's not a beaker in sight. I have barter maxed and have been to 3 traders, nothing. Girlfriend has...

    PC A question for PvP players

    Hey everyone! I haven't participated in PvP since A16 when underground bases were the goto. You could hide strategically and get stronger with little risk, obviously that isn't a thing anymore. When you first join a new server, what methods do you use to hide your base? Is underground still...

    PC That Other Week Madmole Went Away

    I don't think any discussion is ever pointless. Sure, the pimps have no obligation to listen to their fans, but it's a terrible business idea to do that. Remember when EA said those complaining about Battlefield 5 are uneducated and told their fans not to buy the game if they don't like it? The...

    PC Tactics for dealing with Digging Zombies??

    That leaves me wondering how well the zeds will be programmed to detect heat signatures. If you're underground and are causing alot of heat, will the zeds above just start digging down or stay above and spin in circles? This discussion also allows for some other fun aspects to underground base...

    PC Tactics for dealing with Digging Zombies??

    I guess it depends how well the zombies are programmed. If they are attracted directly above our main heat and dig straight down, that's going to be a problem. If they are programmed to search for the entrance better, it gives us better opportunities to set up traps or detours. I'm personally...

    PC Developer Discussions: Alpha 17

    Hmm, the map being 8000x8000 is going to be strange for the PvP players. Actually it would be hard for the normal PvE players too since their loot is guaranteed. Coming from a server that accepts 60 people with a max of 30 online sometimes, that's going to need to be dialed back big time. But...

    PC Hmm guess it’s hurry up and wait for Alpha 17

    Isn't "boy scouts" just considered the scouts now? Because 2018 and sexism and whatnot. Also how did my comment get related to finances? 😂

    PC Hmm guess it’s hurry up and wait for Alpha 17

    I was walking through the forest near my house the other day and was thinking the same thing. My generation (age 24) grew up pampered and lazy. I wouldn't be able to survive in a world without technology or easily accessible food. It seems that so many people are taking life for granted and...

    PC When will the game be released II?

    @roland You go through this every year don't you? It's almost like clock work. Like a switch turns on and a wave of players become entitled to the next release. I gotta admit it's very amusing sitting on the bleachers watching you swing the flyswatter around at everyone demanding TFPs submit...
