Hey everyone,

 

I had a good time playing .55 the past few days. Finally got geared up after heading off the coast, up through Sved and Novo and out to the west. Found a sweet PK 73 (I think that's what it's called?) and some other really cool gear. Food was tough to find but it's around, so no big deal. People were right, the game being made a bit more difficult does add to the overall experience and enjoyment.

 

Unfortunately I broke my leg climbing down a deer stand ladder. No big deal, I just made a splint and went on with my business. Found myself in Starry Sobor a bit later in the afternoon and got into a little trouble with the infected. As most veteran players know, Starry has a few more infected then most other places on the map. Anyway, a crazy bitch was chasing me and I was trying to get a little distance between her and I so I could shoot her with my trusty sub-machine pistol. Of course all the running drew a few more infected and it forced me to climb one of the ladders on the back of the little food stands found in towns and cities.

 

I tried to wait the infected out and at one point I thought they had left. I was wrong and I was getting impatient so I decided to climb down and just shoot them all up. I had my weapon in my hand, went towards the ladder, waited for the "climb ladder" icon to appear, then proceded to climb down. Instead of climbing down the ladder the game glitched (I assume) and I died, losing my beautiful little PK 73 and some really cool gear.

 

I'm assuming this was some sort of game glitch? Or did I somehow break my freaking neck climbing down a ladder that is only six feet off the ground? If it's a glitch then damn, I accept that, this being an alpha and all but it still sucks ass. Maybe next time I'll manually put away my gun and then climb down, even though the game does it automatically (puts your weapon away for you) when you click the climb icon.

 

Anyway, beware fellow survivors. It takes longer to loot up and find really good gear. I don't want to see anyone else get majorly disappointed like I did after some three or four hours of looting due to a stupid glitch.

you probably clicked once you got on the ladder and dropped down it to your death.

Rest in Piece.

deadliest thing in this game is the programming

deadliest thing in this game is getting attached to your loot.

I lost my nearly 2 month old hardcore character (AK101 full pristine, suppressor, PSO1, rail & bipod, ghillie wrap) suppressed MP5K (pristine buttstock, suppressor & rail handguard) to a silly V3S bug-death.

 

Got into a V3S near my base that had rolled partially inside a tree, instant "you are dead" but hey, these things happen and I'm fully geared again now after bumping into a small squad in severograd & liberating their AKM after headshoting one with an Amphibia S and then using his AK74u to kill his friend who snuck up on me but seemingly forgot to reduce his ranging from 200.

 

On the subject of landmines: one trick of mine is to set one up near a police car then drop a piece of Orel clothing as I run away, hopefully having the clothing cover the landmine.

Maybe, but not likely.

 

I climbed many ladders and never had it happen to me twice in one session (the first time I broke a leg). Either way I will be mindful of that next time, thanks.
