*** Infestation: Survivor Stories ***

It's been p2w for ages, they do paid instant revives now too, and ammo is almost non-existent in game since a couple of months.

Then they got hacked and the player DB, forums and server files were compromised. So you would have to be a bit mad to trust HP with anything now.
 
New Additions

  • While picking up ammo it will now give a random amount in the clip.
  • Added spawn protection. While spawning in after reviving or switching servers you will be invincible for 30 seconds. If you fire your weapon during this time you will lose your spawn protection. Your character will have a yellow shield to signify that you are under protection. You will not have spawn protection when spawning back to the same server.
  • Added a Private Server Filter option in the server browser.
  • Increased Melee speed.
  • When holding shift and right clicking a clip it will now ask you how many items you would like to move.
  • Added the ability to stack clips in your inventory. Right click the clip you want to stack and then click "Stack Clips"
  • To encourage exploration Item spawns have changed across the entire map. You will no longer find the same items in the same areas after patch and will need to cover more of the map to build up your inventory.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a bug that errored out when trying to move items from your Global Inventory into your Backpack.
  • Fixed a bug that showed attachments useable for weapons it would not work in.
  • Fixed a bug with grass sometimes not drawing in when aiming down the sights of a weapon.
  • Fixed a crash on some radeon video cards.
  • Fixed a bug while reloading from the inventory that did not use the ammo that was selected.
  • Fixed a bug with the crossbow showing a scope that was not intended to be on the weapon.
    Fixed a bug with reloading animations not playing in safe zones.

While picking up ammo it will now give a random amount in the clip?? Good luck finding ammo to pick up!!

Couple of nice additions tho. Spawn protection long over due as is clip stacking.
 
Looks like they have someone new doing the patch notes, this is a huge improvemenT over the vague one-liners they used to do.

Random item spawns and the weapon changes are both good moves.

Nothing mentioned on hacking of course!
 
even i have given up on this now :(

the random fall damage was the last straw for me (died and lost a military rucksack, blaser and fn p90-s walking through woods over fairly flat ground).


was trying to trade my way to getting a private server for ocuk players and got halfway there but **** HP :mad:

Added a new character model: Paramedic.
Spawn protection is now less visible.
Weapons that have never been used will show BRAND NEW instead of ammo clip info
Adjusted randomness of how much ammo there is in the gun when picking it up to be more realistic.

Fixed a bug that sometimes UI would show attachment menu for attachments that do not fit into current weapon.
Fixed a bug when sometimes camera would shift the character to the right (camera would be on the left side of the character).

For those that didn't know,looks like we will be getting new anti cheat within the next 2 months time or so...they have not mentioned what it will be yet (Hopefully Punkbuster) but they're going to add it alongside the existing ssecurity layers (If you could call them that. :D )

New layer of security

Even though FairFight is doing very good job at fighting with cheaters, there are some cheats that are very difficult to detect on server side. One of those is ESP cheat. It allows cheater to see some hidden information and give him an edge over normal players. Majority of cheaters that are using ESP will be caught by FairFight, as they leave a very definitive trace of actions, which shows that they are using ESP cheat. But we would want to catch them even earlier, before they did they damage to normal players. That is why we had been looking for another security layer and after careful review of our options, we signed an agreement with one of the major providers of anti cheat solution. I don’t want to name it yet, as I would want this to come as a surprise to cheaters. But we expect this layer to be active within next two months. I wish we could integrate it earlier, but this time delay is due to the fact that there are other clients in front of us that need that cheat integrated and we cannot jump the line. Once we will be ready to deploy it, we will announce it in one of the upcoming patches. So, stay tuned

I really hope this can save the game,Back when this game first came out..i played like a boss and could hold my own against other players in PVP...but these days because sooo many people are hacking i get killed maybe 90% of the time. :/

Patch Notes - May 7 said:
New Additions

Proximity voice chat added - It is now possible to hear and talk to other players that are within a 200m radius of you.
Please be aware that when you are using proximity voice chat you will be giving up your position. Any time you talk a speaker icon will appear above your head.
Default push to talk button is T and can be rebound in the games options.
Voice chat can be enabled and disabled in the options menu.
If voice chat is not working make sure to set up your mic and speakers in the options menu.
To mute players press tab then click on the players name and select mute.
It is now possible to equip a handgun in primary or secondary slots.
Players name has been improved. Rearranged the icons for easier readability.
Loot spawns have been increased globally across the map.
Zombies now drop items more frequently.

Added 3rd person camera switching. The default keybind is Alt but can be reassigned in the options menu.



Bug Fixes

Fixed a bug with toxicity going over 100%.
Fixed a bug with the range finder UI staying on screen when changing weapons in a safe zone.
Fixed a bug with the flashlight attachment turning off when switching from 1st person mode to 3rd person.
Fixed a bug that would alter the look of the character model if the user held c down while in the death countdown.
Fixed a bug that allowed the flashlight to be toggled on and off while the user has empty hands.
Fixed a bug that continued to display a barricade while switching to empty hands.
Fixed a bug that allowed for greater accuracy with weapons after firing a shot into the air.
Fixed a bug that caused the pickup UI to be displayed on the screen after the user was killed.
Fixed a bug that displayed a -1 ammo when equipping binoculars.
 
Only coming back if they put in a good anti-cheat.

God, I loved this game for a time, miss the Just Survive bunch as well, as WarZ died, we all kinda drifted apart :(
 
Will certainly come back when they have a proper anti cheat as I enjoyed the game itself, just hackers ruined it.

Also when they messed up aiming, that was the last straw for me. Aiming down the sight at a zed 2 feet away and missing due to the changes ****** me off.
 
All Bans Are Now Public!

Starting today when a player is banned we will issue a global message to all servers the player has been banned. Think of this as a wall of shame to discourage those people who are hacking and playing with friends.

Additionally, we created a twitter account that will also have tweets each time a player is banned

FairFight Has banned 112 Players in the last 24 hours
 
So what's been happening in the WarZ of late? They any closer to sorting out the hacking issues?
`

Theres still hacking going on,But imo its not nearly as bad as it was..they also announced they're implementing new anti cheat within the next 2 months (they have to wait in line)..but one of the devs said its Punkbuster. :)

They do seems to be getting stuff done now though,the past load of updates/patches have made the game better,especially the latest which we can finally find weapons,ammo,backpacks etc.

All Bans Are Now Public!

Thats awesome,I wish it also told you why they were banned (esp,Noclip etc)
 
Its weird,since patch day and all these banning notices going up in the Global chat ive become a much better player,i can now easily hold my own against other PVP,ers .

I think it just shows exactly how many players were actually cheating because before all this i usually died every time in PVP.
 
How is the loot now since they randomised everything? At least I would hope they are now making better use of the whole map.
