ammo creation

[dragos]

Hello,


Is there, at this moment, any way that you can create ammo when you operate the workbench ? Because I find a lot of weapons, but liitle to none ammo to fill those weapons, I will require to make my own ammo, 5,56, 9mm or shells. Normally, you should be able to create it, as I make in real life for my hunting rifle, but I'm interested to know if this option has been added yet to the game. Many thanks in advance for the answer .

Cheers ,

Unfortunatly you can't craft ammo for the guns, i suppose that option will be implemented in future versions since alpha 2.xxx

that is just awesome , pure awesomeness at it's best !!! You don't even realise how much love I have for this game ... I was thinking also to try and sketch a map in order to give people loot places for items , let's say with red it would mean that there is ammo, with yellow - > food, and so on... that means that I would be able to make a video about this and post it on my youtube channel. ..... sweeet ! You're the best . Also, I wanted to know how can I get in contact with you, I want to ask you something, Well, I might as well ask you here and if you approve I will contact you on FaceBook : so, here it goes -> is there any way that I can help you develop the game ? I don't know programming, so that will be out of the question, but maybe with some translations, maybe you want to do it for other languages as well, maybe pitch in ideas... btw, if you're wondering, I don't require any payment or anything like that, it would be my pleasure .

Cheers,

can you make ammo now?
I was thinking of buying but want to be able to use the guns without having ammo problems.

Not yet. According to the dev, ammo crafting will be introduced in the 0.2.0 patch. Right now it's only 0.1.9.1. Next update will be around October.

similar to the topic of respawning... it would kill the fun of it. Maybe just make it optional for the millenials who want an easy game with no hassle, or those who just like a challenge.
To be honest, the hunting arrows are more than enough for the game. You can clean up all bandit camps with just arrows (and the longbow, of course).

agree to an extent lol i too favour the longbow :) however cant wait for the ammo crafting just to get rid of the huge stockpile of charcoal i have lol :)

there's an easy way to get around ammo crafting at the moment - just use a bow and "farm" bandits.

if you make a point of visiting the camp where you rescued scott, their camp entrance is one of those steel shipping containers so if you position yourself in the road opposite, it's really just like shooting fish in a barrel.

it's also good practice for the bow as well - at the moment i've got 30+ ammo for the shotgun, m4 AND pistol through doing this.

obviously the bandits don't always drop ammo, but they do it often enough to make it worthwhile.

but then after a while with the bow, it's so much fun you hardly use guns ..

[Maconijnr]

lockers full of the stuff lol been harvesting bandits and infected a long time lol i don't need the ammo as like you say the longbow is awsome for this game :)
the ammo crafting has always been a planned add by the dev, the aim is to eventually do away with respawning of loot and loot drops so that you have to craft and hunt for everything that you need, at the moment i have lockers full of charcoal because i'm a hoarder and it being 1 of the primary ingrediants to gunpowder i just want to finaly be able to get rid of it lol :)

but if, as expected, the 2.0 update means a full restart from scratch then it'll all go anyway .. :)

Don't be scared. Ammo is more than easy enough to come by. People only run out because they don't aim or waste ammo on limb shots.

there's always that chance lol :) and to be honest i wouldn't care :) if it means we get a much bigger game map:) 143hrs in game i have started over so many times trying out different base locations that restarting just don't phase me lol :)

[cloakofshadows087]

lol see i took the time to take every locker and almost every suitcase and bring it to my established base. 3 restarts so 3 times i travled all these lockers. rather than make lockers. saving metal scraps and components. soooooooo much work lol. so starting over is just mortifying. but with a new bigger map and new locations, with bug fixes it; definetly be worth it. who knows, we will probably have to do this more than once with updates inbound
