  1. Indiestone hasn't given ETA's in a year or more but I'd say the first public builds (with limited NPC actions) will be released in about 4-6 months judging by their development speed. Then again they never said anything about the multiplayer being released until about 2 weeks before their release so I might be wrong. But 3 months are a minimum from what I've read.
  2. Had it pretty bad recently while playing multiplayer. I was on a server that was online for 2 ingame months. Pretty much every house was picked clean when I first joined. There was some kind of war going on in Muldraugh between 2 groups of people, you could hear shooting every day and night. There was no escaping it. One day I was lucky enough to find a can of beans, a can opener, a spade, a bucket and a bottle. It was on a corpse, the man was shot dead just recently in a fiery shootout between the 2 rival gangs. I picked all his stuff, went to a nearby house, filled the bucket and bottle with toilet water and ran to the woods so I wouldn't be caught in the middle of the fighting. These people were all raiders so I had to be careful. I finished the beans on my way to the woods because I was very hungry by then. Once I reached the relative safety of the deep forest I realized that I had no other food. So I did the one thing I could do - I dug. (Note: I found a sand bag before I found the dead man) For 4 days I lived off worms and toilet water. It was miserable but at least I was still alive. I kept busy by talking to the people on the Global chat, they were always talking about a big shootout or whining about being killed by someone. On the fourth day I got bored so I revealed my position to the people. I didn't expect anyone to actually show up but, much to my surprise, 5 gang members showed up thinking to rob me. I told them that I had nothing of value but they didn't believe me. I tried to run be one shot me as a warning. I stopped, bandaged my wound and dropped all my stuff just like they told me. I told the leader that I was thirsty and had no water left. He took all my stuff and left me a bleach bottle. Then he shot me again one time to make me bleed. With no bandages I was dead anyway so I did as my captors told me and drank the bleach. The raiders left for the town with all my stuff still with them. The last post I saw in the chat box before my tragic and painful death was "LoL wat a noob". The end.
  3. I got bored from L4D2 one day so I searched for "Unknown zombie games" in Google and found an old article about some of the best indie games (I think it was from Kotaku, but I don't remember). So I found PZ, watched some gameplay on Youtube and (don't shoot me for this!!!) pirated the 1.5d build from TPB. After I realized how good this game was I decided to buy it on Desura. End of story.
  4. So there I was, playing PZ multiplayer on the Mindscape server, just minding my own business. Then I stumble upon a fort that consists of 2 houses joined together by a wooden wall in West Point. Turns out, the fort is run by a group of friendly survivors consisting of John, Skittles and Cantastorie. So I teamed up with them but they warned me of an impeding bandit attack so I started preparations for the attack, taht is, loaded my shotgun. However, a wild bandit called I Am Alive pops out of nowhere and kills me and one other dude. John kills him and his friend. I quickly relog and find the base still inhabited. I'm tired of running so I volunteer to stay, long story short, I quickly became the watch dog for our fort. My job was to patrol the perimeter and offer any friendly survivors food. Suddenly, the bandits attack again! They killed off most of the team, but I managed to kill 3 and chase the last one away. My friends log back in and thank me for holding the fort. We rebuilt our defenses, grew some food and prepared for another attack. Thankfully, it didn't come. So me and this girl FriendlyGirl, a survivor who we picked up recently, go to her house to pick the remaining food up. The smart gal has made a ninja fort in Central West Point! We pack all the food and head back. Skittles, who was always our scout, logs out. When we arrive back, we encounter a new survivor, Cantastorie. Turns out, he was part of John's original group that helped make the fort. We exchanged pleseantries. Life is looking good, all our enemies have left the game and we are 6 people strong! So Cantastorie says that his friend has gone missing in Central West Point. I volunteer to help look for him. FriendlyGirl is also coming with us. So we head to the Centre where suddenly Raiderz, a member of a previously neutral French survivor group, kills Cantas's friend right in front of our eyes, then manages to kill FriendlyGirl and Cantas. I got lucky and shot him 5 times but he managed to escape. I retreat to the fort. We all want payback. So, once we all regrouped at the fort, we created our battle plan. The French base was a huge walled out area in the North West WP. Our plan is to kill as many as we can and destroy any fences and walls with sledges we can find. So 6 of us - me, Cantas, FriendlyGirl, Strongman, Tom and John, all load up like pirates with pistols and shotguns and head on the offensive. At first we secure the south entrance, that is, blast away 1 guard. While Tom and Friendly guard the perimeter, the rest of us start destroying any walls we can find to let zombies inside. We do some significant damage. Then the French clan attacked in force, they killed Tom, Friendly and Strongman. I kept destroying the walls. Suddenly Daryl Dixon kills Cantas and puts a bullet in my head as well. Once we fell, John hauled ass back to base. We relogged and regrouped at the fort. There was only me and Cantas because John had left IRL and the rest were still coming. So, since the French are still occupied with the disastrous attack, me and Cantas decide to take them by surprise. We snuck in, killed Daryl Dixon, took 4 pistols, a lot of ammo, a few shotguns and went back home. It felt really good, like we were some sort of heroes. After that we parted ways. Tl;Dr - we formed a group of 6 people and attacked a rival clan, destroyed their base and took a lot of guns with us. Fun times
  5. .. that's not quite how the titles work And yeah, it used to be you could change your own when you got to 500 posts. I set that back, since it's more of a cool little thing we can do for people who've been here a while, and who've contributed to the community. I don't know if it was you who changed my title to "Defender of the Ware Bio" but, if it was you, I thank you for it. I knew that asking for something like this would most likely end diferently than I expected but I still like it. And yes, I have contributed to the community in the old and new forum, one of my contributions is that I reported the annoying "fire save" bug that corrupted save games when something was burning. Lemmy, The High Lord Commander General Master Sargeant of Internethia, fixed it.
  6. I'm just wondering if I can get a member title that says "Scourge of Butthurt". Sounds weird, I know, but it's who I am. During the whole Mass Effect 3 ending shitstorm I was angry about the original endings but after Bioware did something that no other developer would do - they released a free DLC to please the fans - I found respect towards the company (just Bioware, EA can go fuck itself). But the butthurt masses of the Bioware Social Network were not so respectful, they started whining and cursing even more that before, calling Bioware and Mass Effect 3 the worst thing that has ever happened to humanity, they even sent death threats to the developers! For 1,5 years I've been combating butthurt and I hope that someday my war will be won. So yeah, I hope that with this new title the whiners will cover in fear when they see my profile on this site.
  7. Jauki redzēt kādu citu latvieti šajā forumā! I have realised that there is no point in farming after 2,5 months. The crops just die off in the cold. My strategy is that I stockpile all the food I can find, eat the perishable stuff first, once the electricity cuts off, I start farming until winter comes. After that I eat all the canned foods until I die. So far I have survived 3 months in this save.
  8. I'm currently in my lowest moment by far. 3 months in, I've exhausted pretty much anything worth eating, I'm scavenging water from toilets, eating dogfood and cooking rats on a campfire. I can't farm anything because of the cold. I have plans to go to West Point by foot, I already have packed a tent kit, a campfire and 2 cans of soup - probably the last two cans of soup on Earth. I love this game because it makes me feel so depressed lol
  9. I was bitten in the crotch while looting a food store and survived. Oh, the shame this brings on those who whine like pups.
  10. 1)How will the metagame work late in the game? Will the NPC's farm, create new bases, etc. And how will NPC's that are on your team deal with custom made buildings and bases? Is the AI adaptive in that sense? 2)Will we see new guns like an assault rifle, revolver, hunting rifle and more? Will there be weapons that are only lootable from fallen soldiers that were sent in to contain the outbreak?
  11. So, after dieing many times on a single save file, I decided to make change things up - make a campsite deep into a forest where zombies can't find me. So, 3 dead characters later, I made a tent kit, a campfire and grabbed a trovel for farming. I headed into the woods, where I think I can be alone. I set up my tent, my campfire and 4 plots of land planted with cabbages and potatoes. I also made a rain collector barrel so I don't run out of water. 5 days in, no zombie activity. Just thought I'd share this story, it's not much but for now it's one of my most successful safehouses yet.
  12. No offence Devs but the new combat system is horrible (atleast in my case) because I can't kill a single zombie anymore!Now my character just pushes the zombie back instead of hitting it, meaning that the upclose encounters are 99% fatal for any character. I lost 3 survivors in 15 minutes that way, it's not fun.
