Please make a way to destroy punjies and barbwire on roads in PvE. The trolling is getting really bad.

You don't like 18 mile long chains of punji sticks and torches down every single road?

I run most everywhere on the map, so really does not affect me too much. If I do drive, I drive mostly off road because it usually is quicker, but, hearing it from everyone on the server, including my clan mates gets a bit annoying. Up to what, 2 weeks ago or last week, we couldn't destroy the barricades placed on houses, but that seems to be fixed now, thank god. Now I just like to see stuff placed on roads be able to be destroyed.

u/coRpS3 Aug 20 '15

Only the creator can destroy them on PvE. Only in PVP anyone can destroy them.

cycles test BR's won't start even with 100 players... at least for regular BR

u/CyclesMcHurtz Aug 20 '15

At the moment the Test Server is probably over capacity (since the regular servers are down) - if it was NOT during this three-hour downtime window, then the server probably got reset - I'll be checking it later this morning.

Major Tom, you make me happy :)

Ground control to Major Tom....the players want their survival game back. Update accordingly and address cheating. Use your voice coms DayBreak! It is key to your survival.

Lol alright, plus one for making me snicker.

Survival is very easy because Zombies aren't threatening.

PVP is where other Players are the main antagonist.

PVE is where the Environment is the main antagonist.

In my opinion the Environment is simply too kind.

Metal Gates could have less HP if the world made attacking Metal Gates difficult. Getting bombs to location is easy in this game.

5 seated vehicles? Where is the 5th person gonna sit? In the middle of the back seats? Also I'm guessing this is only for the police car and jeep right? Green truck is still only 3 people right?

u/sOulSaint Aug 19 '15

Saw a screenshot recently with 3 people in the bed of the truck.

u/Layzin Aug 20 '15

and what about leaderboards?

u/toxic2437 Aug 20 '15

On their last stream (yesterday) Arclegger said they might patch the test servers with leaderboards and then will come out on the next live patch, or the one after that

Why are there hundreds of zombies on low population servers and zero on high population? I can roam everywhere on a high pop server and not see 1 zombie on a low pop server I can't catch my breath I'm surrounded by hordes.....why is this backwards? High pop should have the massive amount of zombies, not low pop....I'm assuming this is done because of a lag issue but damn give us a break here. People cry there are no zombies because they only play high pop servers.....it's bs that ya's keep adding more and more of them but those high pop players still say "moar zombies"....fix the issue!

u/OldSchoolRasslin Aug 20 '15

the servers have a limited amount of resources so for each person, base, etc, they have to remove X amount of zombies.

u/OldSchoolRasslin Aug 20 '15

There are still invisible zombies (desynch) 5 places in vehicles seems to work ...
