so this is it?

[MrCookieees]

so bassicly we are not able to play because of hackers?
so in return we get a katana, but onc we login we are ofcourse getting killedagainby a hacker, i love this game but its turning into a call of duty with all these hackers.

[Dr. Vroom]

I dont know why people cant play, but I can tell you it isnt hackers. Looking at the way their server is reacting now, the login server looks fine.

[Quilldragon]

it seems everyone who didnt buy through steam can play at the moment, but if you bought through steam you're borked.

Incorrect.
Many people on the official forums who dont have it through steam still cant play... its been 3 days for many of them.

Yeah, the server issue seems confusing, but I have been able to play this whole time. I haven't the slightest clue why it is only happening to certain people or what the people who have the issue all have in common.

[MrCookieees]

why do they take a week to put in 1 stupid katana?
and they should do something about the spawns as well right?
when i die in a town most of the times at night i justspan in the town and their are a mil zombies around me

[Quilldragon]

^ dieing to zombies when spawning into the game is nobody's fault but your own.

[Dr. Vroom]

True. a simple thing like a katana should take 2 hours for a decent dev pair... a modeler worth his weight could make one in 30 mins. another 30-45 mins to skin, and coding amd implementation would take maybe an hour.

[Quilldragon]

what if they have access to a motion capture studio? shouldnt that cut the time down alot? I'm guessing this assuming that making it look proper while swinging in third person would take the most time.

[Dr. Vroom]

lmao. lol no way are the doing custom animations. they are going to recycle tone of the current anims.

Motion capture studio? Those are crap. they dont cut down on anything. they take a lot of time to fine tune, amd then you need to translate everything into the engine. it xuts down the nuber of animation artists needed, but not the time needed.

Because you're not dealing with professionals?

Once I was killed by zombies in a default spawn location, on a fresh new character.

How is that anyone's fault but theirs?

[Quilldragon]

thats their fault but that wasnt the discussion, the discussion was spawning back in and dieing to zombies after disconnecting or hopping, not for a fresh spawn.

[Felicity]

Sometimes people crash, network outages, etc.

There should be some kind of safety net for logging in, so you can at least defend yourself. Maybe, I don't know, not load in your character before you're even in the game :s

Blaming everything on negligence is not the way to go, and is bad game design, period.
