Multiplayer on 7 Days to Die

[OJsDad]

What co-ordinates?
I have been looting today so have some starter gear, plenty of water, antibiotics, etc. So am kitted reasonably well. But will come have a look at what you have, perhaps leave some of my loot in exchange.

Center of the map is Hub city, 0,0.  Our base is on the NE side.

OK, will find it when next on.

We might have reached the point where it's too late for new characters to join even if they're experienced players. :-[

I'm well late onto the server, but I'm going to give it my best shot.  O0

I really haven't spent much time in the cities yet...and am fairly low level.  Outside the cities, you should not have trouble surviving.  Just always have a good escape route, and some coffee so you can run like hell....

On my single-player I have spent quite some time in the city, actually. I drop a whole bunch of spikes grouped on the road and encourage them into it. I have despatched as many as 8-10 in one go that way. Just keep manouvering because some try to walk round them until they get frustrated and lunge for you - impaled :)

I have cleared an entire district like that, just keep an eye for any sneakies creeping up behind you.

Maybe it is a well-known trap, but I kind of thought it through for myself. Why not do practice single-player and test it out? Any refinements let me know :)

Zombies set to only walk, since I like a little more relaxed game....

And who taught them to walk? Usain Bolt?
I came online at 23.30 game-time and immediately torn to shreds after they turned my temporary hovel to matchwood. Fine, respawn - the buggers were all over me at Olympic speeds! Died 9 times during this night!

Damn! I need to get something built before nightfall

[OJsDad]

The server settings are set to a harder level.  Budd and I thought we had a good defense in place with a few rows of spikes.  Yea, they blew right through them. 

[Flywheel]

I have managed to stagger to Hub City. I need to go in for a rest before deciding what to do. There'd better be coffee, I'm tellin  ya!  ;D

[OJsDad]

There's coffee.  Top floor in one of the crates you'll find some.  If not, up on the roof you'll find some growing. 

[Flywheel]

Thanks. took a couple of bandages, water and a few items of food, replaced by gunpowder and shell casings

[OJsDad]

Hi AT.  When you get a minute, can you reboot the server.  Neither Budd nor I can do anything.  We've both logged out and back in a couple of times and it's not helping. 

Thanks

[Flywheel]

Is it lagging, OJ? I couldn't play at all this morning because of it.

[OJsDad]

Yep, lagging is the issue.

OK, rebooted....

FPS still dropping, even tried lowering my settings more, they still slowly drop until unplayable. How is it for you guys?

[OJsDad]

I just logged in for the first time since last week and it seems fine to me.
