oh my days....
probably the account will be banned.
Yes, refunds are being done through SOE so they aren't instant. They are working with Steam to remove from your games list after the refund.
don't be too impresses. it's very buggy most of the time
Whole thing is so overblown. All you need to do is some exploring and get away from everyone else and you will have no trouble finding shit.
AR15 found inside house. In backyard was a simple box on the ground with a hunting rifle, ammo and a military backpack.
If you are running around where everyone else is you aren't going to find shit because the loot is being grabbed by others until a respawn.

Heh, didn't mean it like that.
Just wondering how they would process a removal of a game on your steam list...

Hopefully cause the game is actually pretty fun. Get rid of nameplates too.
That's being fixed in the patch soon. Loot respawn is bugged app apparently.

Why is this game getting shit on so hard? I'm having a lot of fun with it. Airdrops need some tweaks, but it's not like they're server destroying.

Rust already firing shots:
Because they chose reddit as their official forum and it's full of fucking idiots ?

Air drop thing does not really bother me, they will/are reducing the rate at which you can get guns from them. Also, maybe it should be Pay 2 Live Longer... you don't exactly win in this game.

Funny, that game wasn't even on fucking sale during the winter sales...
Remove paid airdrops and make them random or make them cosmetic items only? Even Lirik agrees. They're really showing their greed over making a game everyone can be happy with. Telling people to piss off and not play is shitty.
I would not even speak if I was the Rust team...
Thought this was pretty interesting with regards to the Airdrops.

Buckle, in what way? All they have to do is change the loot table for air drops. It's a non-issue, as far as I'm concerned, considering it's so early in development.

This was their true mistake. Using a fucking cesspool as a communication medium was idiotic.
its all being adjusted it seems. When i played, i found loot i was pretty suited up, but i couldnt find any bullets n got owned by 3 fellas with axes. well 2 actuall 1 was chating me, then 2 more came along killed the dude chasing me, then killed me. haha
No air drops should stay as is with just lowered % chance of non-cosmetic. Which they are doing in today's patch, people need to remember this is Day 2 of an alpha.
Remember in the end this is a free to play game, they have to have ways to make money. People won't buy air drops just for cosmetic, they will pay for a small chance at a gun, even if its only a 10% chance.
As is pre-patch it's messed up, but with the changes the air drop will be far away from you, come on slower and lowered drop rate. Will make for some fun fire fights and events.

Well crap.
It's for the better! Server stability and some fixes to loot, etc. so in the end it'll be better for you =)
finally, someone with a clear head.

Hmm. Gotten about 15 hours in, have searched every house and vehicle I've run across both in town and in the middle of nowhere and found one can of oranges. Also found a pistol in a house, but no ammo. They're adjusting the tables right? The air drops don't bother me at all, but playing for hours and making no progress has me wondering, "why?"
Apparently so
Amusingly he said they have only had 30 requests for refunds despite Reddit rage and that they are hoping to have an additional 200 EU servers up by Tuesday.
Noup is SOE Planetscape engine.
Nice. I figured that would be the case. Glad to hear the lag is on their side. Wondered why my rig was struggling. Outside of getting basically no loot I really like the environment and navigating it. The zombies are very dangerous alone but more than three in a narrow area gets a bit hairy.
Hopefully that hotfix goes in this weekend.
Thanks for the heads up!

Well from what smed said before to what he's saying now (I don't have a issue with it either way I know it'll be change to satisfy the masses)
The servers are going down any minute now , I'm kinda hoping the hotfix is coming then.
Does anyone know how big the map is ? I just seem to keep coming back to the same areas all the time and there are always loads of people there.
Yeah, that game soured me on Early Access.

I hope they get the lag/loot sorted in this upcoming patch. My biggest complaint atm. I hate not being able to click anything and not find anything even on low/med servers
fluffydelusions

Well the map is smaller than dayz by a lot atm and it has more players (150-200 afaik) so that is why it's always crowded

I agree, backtracking on their prior decision is a bit crummy, but I don't mind their (intended) implementation.
Frankly, calling in an airdrop in a (minimum) 100 player server, where the plane is loud, slow, has a green smoke trail, AND attracts zombies, sounds terrifying, but also an interesting way of creating dynamic player encounters. I like the chopper crashes in DayZ, but they don't do much in the way of creating player contact. I'm glad H1Z1 is okay with being more "gamey" in that regard.
Ye fuck this game. Dayz has no pay2win and its the only TRUE mmo survival game! SOE will keep making games like this.
Map is roughly 64 miles vs. DayZ's 255. They will be expanding this world quite a bit and have plans to be much much larger than DayZ's when all is said and done. They also plan on uping the player count per server as the world grows. I assume they'll just merge servers when this happens if they have too many still.
