PC Hos is this suppose to be fun?

To be fair, he also posted this when a20 first dropped:



He said a20 was the best since a16, but not as good as a16 and that after a month or so he'd go back to a16. So this was more of a status update than anything.

But seriously guy, are you 12? You made some terrible decisions and had to come here to cry about it? Play smarter next time. Or stay in a16 with its half-broken AI so you don't have to worry about it.

@%$# happens 

That's why i usually play with drop bag only on death. 

My guns will be without ammo but my melee will help recovery my bag.

I prefer to ramp up the difficulty (warrior + x2 zombies modlet) but have a help mechanism (drop bag only) in case of death spiral.

yeah i agree with this. I think this should be the default tbh, losing everything just sucks so hard, and only having what is loaded in your guns is already enough of a drawback. Making the game more punishing can give that sense of dread and fear that really makes it fun to play, but it can just make you ragequit.

This game has probably given me the highest highs and lowest lows in gaming. Looting a fresh city, getting all the t6 loot you wanted and running back to base only to get sniped by an enemy player is aggrivating as hell, 2 hrs or more wasted in a second. But when you are the one sniping someone and stealing their loot damn does it feel good.

Keeping what is most important on your toolbelt though is probably the best middle ground so you dont just revert to the stone age, but you dont just suicide to teleport back home.

Almost back to my base, hit a zombie a few times with my club, stamina is out, feral zombie runs up to me, hits me several times and I die.   I can't run nor can I fight back because I am out of stamina.  I respawn, go back to my pack, and there are the zombies guarding my pack.  

Rather than making the game more fun and enjoyable pimps has turned it into a grind of frustration.  I play games to be entertained, to pass the time, and not for the frustration of it.

From my steam account - Play time 1,552.9 hours

Screw this, I am going back to Alpha 16.

Manage your stamina better, there are risks associated with blowing all your stam on melee fighting vs using it to run. the tradeoffs exist to drive decision making with the resources you have. You used your stam to save ammo and time and gain xp, the tradeoff was not being able to run away when you needed to.

Thats entirely on you though.

I started doing this a while back. I still hate dying so it's not like I throw myself at zombies but if I DO die, having whatever is in my belt helps me avoid the potential "death loop" while trying to get my stuff back. Also, once I've got a permanent home, I don't drop bedrolls when I travel. My bed at home is my only bed. Personal preference. So if I die, chances are I've got some ground to cover to get back to where I was. (Also provides an extra incentive to be super aware when the clock goes past 21:30 because I really don't like waiting till morning to go get my stuff. LOL)

Plus it makes me pay attention to what's on my belt at all times.

Hush now, you'll make me cry. Get better. I play on insane level with day zombies set to sprint. It's fun. I leave feral sense off though. This game is incredibly easy once you get good.
