Love that second picture. I've seen images (real or edited I'm not sure) where Medium settings looks a lot better than Ultra? is this a bug or has the image maybe been edited?#

I don't have the image anymore as the thread 404'd.

Yeah it seems to be a bug, after that guy earlier said about it I tried it. Not sure if it was med or high now but one of those looks much better then ultra with better frames.

The amount of hacks already are from it being based from PS2's engine. What ever did or does work there, will probably work on this.

I think they said they are already catching them, they are making sure there is no false positives as they don't want to ban people by mistake.

Saw this on steam with regards to PS2 antihack from SOE.

Love readiong hacker sob stories.

Looks like SOE are doing something right, wonder how long it'll take to create a bypass though.

TIL: Shooting a bear with a bow and arrow just makes it angry.

Then I learned that hiding in a house the bear can eventually walk through a wall.

Right, I'm putting this game off until Tuesday when 200 EU servers are being launched. At the moment, it's a case of queuing for an eternity, or joining a laggy US server.

JakePNEFC · 19 Jan 2015 at 00:11

How do you find out which server you was last in? Joined loads previously, just in one and I find loads of loot but forgot which server it was so cant join back

Witcher1979 · 19 Jan 2015 at 00:21

I think you click the left arrow thing next to the server name at the top, I think it shows most recent first with the green dots.

God dammit. Scavenged for an hour. Found nothing but a wrench and 1 tin food. Anybody teaming up on this yet??

Stumbled across this: http://www.h1z1basecamp.com/

Interactive map and crafting recipes. Avoid if you want to discover everything for yourself.

31k in game right now are saying you and your 5 clan members might not be totally right btw

TBH if you don't like it I don't care m8, I for one am having a blast on it, no matter what I will get my £15 worth out of it. I don't read random reviews on youtube by people I don't even know. I always make my own mind up, right now this game is a ton of fun. Will it stay like that? Doubt it but who knows, it might well turn into another WarZ but until that time I will play it and continue to enjoy it. If it ever does get to the way you want it to be, will probs see you in game one day

Will give it a try when it is F2P - my rant was aimed at the fact the game is going to be free so how can SOE justify charging people to play test the alpha?

If it improves drastically once it enters beta and release then I will indeed see you in-game dude!

Quite good.. I need help on the RIP server.

I'm top of the map by Ranchito, I have a truck but need help from people to build up a settlement. Have lots and lots of food, fuel, wood on me but need metal. Also have about 8x Biofuel so can go pretty much anywhere

Any takers?

I also have lots and lots of spark plugs so if anyone comes across a vehicle in that town and needs some let me know.

I found a secret base in the woods with door locks.. Had a scout around and found their car which I promptly blew up with my bow and arrows haha

We're around the same area... Stay out! haha

Having a good laugh on this last night. Got a base up and running, shame that quite a bit still needs working on for it to function correctly. Read as: gates do not open nor can have a code entered, essentially trapping people in or out. Although you can scale over walls using arrows...

Also, animal traps = never need to hunt animals again!

I was wondering if anyone else is having any fps problems..I have reported this on their forums but I haven't received a response. I currently have to play this on low setting but my computer upstairs which is a lower spec is on high?

My spec is below

Core i7-4700HQ 4-Core 2.4GHz

GeForce GTX 870M 3GB [1920 x 1080]

RAM
8GB

Can't say I've had any problems whatsoever. Have you tried using the Medium settings? I recall reading something from SOE saying that Medium were the only graphics settings working as intended.
