Tires are made using acid and polymers IRL though. Do you not do any research and just start posting gibberish? Maybe do some research next time dude, I did mine.
Oh? They're made in real life on a bench with some flasks? Come on, either you go with "realism" or you don't, cherry picking to suit your argument is weak.

if it helps.
I'm just saying you have all of those tires (better, Joe?) sitting around and they're pretty much really just piles of plastic.

You could *easily*, and using current systems without having it be a mini game, be made sensible.

It's just weird, abstract or not.

 
He means SUBS as in subscribers not followers. Unless refering to twitch..not sure if they are a part of the group allowed. I'm pretty sure its only Youtubers, I could be wrong.
Twitch is also allowed. It is 5k subs on YouTube and or 5k followers on twitch or be a partner on twitch.

 
About time someone gets it. Everyone else is in 3 year old tantrum mode and not realizing the whole thing is a fake simulation anyway. There is a performant responsible way to do it and a bad way to do it. We can have 64 zombies in the world and 3 in your face, and the rest hiding/hunting/roaming... or we can have none in the world and dynamically add stuff near players so joe has 10 guys chasing him, bob has a mini horde of 20, and fred has a wandering trader, and Snowdog has a hooker horde.
What is out there waiting/lurking like A1 is irrelevant. What threatens you right here and now is all that matters. It will feel like there are more zombies than there ever where. We plan options so you can add more or less dynamic encounters. They can be game staged etc so its actually a challenge.
But that's the huge part you're missing... zombies are not a threat, because you've got them all cooped up inside... it's a big world, and there are *plenty* of ways to get the same loot, without ever having to visit a poi. But, you don't play that way, so it must not be valid, right?

I'm not a part of this whole debate nor do I want to be but I am curious. The statement you made I do not believe is correct at all. If it is, please explain where you get all the same loot from without every entering a POI?

No offense but almost every single one of you QA testers are not the greatest skilled players lol... I have never watched you play so this is does not apply to you but I have watched the others play and they SUCK at the game. Normally I would never make such a statement but this one time I had to sorry. The other testers really do not know how to play this game, there gameplay footage is proof of that lol. Sorry Twigg, Dollie, etc. ;)

As I say. Always be direct, honest and firm while be respectful. Hopefully I did all 4 of those things with this statement.

Except that in the latter case he runs after the horde. Very freaky to watch.

I guess I should clarify as "larger than a garage poi". Hell, garage's have the best loot IMO. Couple those with the destroyed buildings, and you really don't ever need to hit a house. I do, for fun sometimes, but I avoid the bigger houses/dungeon crawls like the plague, because they're boring/tedious and not worth the risk/reward.

If you're referring to the little rage bumps y'all give, I've been playing modded rage zombies that STAY raged for quite a while. If you're referring to some other surprise, I'll anxiously await what that would be. =)

How much long term play time do you actually get? I mean when testing, you have to restart over and over again to check off that "new save" checkbox, right?

How much legit play time are you getting per alpha? Just curious.

That makes more sense. Yes I would have to agree with you then.

EDIT: and yes indeed garages are a diamond in the dirt for loot. While running through a town if I come across a POI with a garage I'll stop loot the garage then get back to my travels.
