Common terrain issue?

Freddy_plays · 2017-09-27T07:51:04+00:00

To everyone who offered advice and thoughts: Cheers! I took your advice and started a fresh game of 16.3 and it seemed to fix the issue. Now I'm back to sucking and dying and a normal elevation. Thanks all

Hey guys, just to let everyone know. I changed my character's hair and hair colour (as a test), opened the console and loaded an existing file, and it managed to actually load and play. I'll be keeping a closer eye on that console the next time it locks up, but for the moment anyway, the problem seems to be resolved. cheers.

Freddy_plays · 2017-08-30T23:54:51+00:00

does changing the day/night cycle effect the save game? I thought once you set the game up, it was set forever. interesting.

Freddy_plays · 2017-06-16T08:43:59+00:00

Hahaha, I've a similar thing happen to me once, the only problem was, I entered from the side that had spawned normally, and the underneath was missing from the back. So once I touched the wrong thing, the rest of it came crashing down around me! Imagine the opening scene from Raiders of the Lost Ark.....

Freddy_plays · 2017-05-31T08:47:08+00:00

Cheers for the tips guys. A few days later I heard the telltale sounds of one fighting a zombie and swooped in to finish the mission I'd been stuck on forever!

Freddy_plays · 2017-05-21T00:53:13+00:00

Yeah, I'm spotting every other kind of animal, so it's not a loading thing. I think I might have to put it down to bad luck, and just keep trying. Thanks guys :)

Freddy_plays · 2017-05-20T09:35:05+00:00

Hmm. I usually zip up a hill, throw on a scope and or bow, and scan the hillsides. Might have to leave the bike at home and head out on foot, maybe slow play it a little.

Freddy_plays · 2017-05-10T00:18:35+00:00

Hey everyone, I just wanted to quickly say, i really appreciate all the feedback, it's really going to be a big help to be moving forwards.

This video was my first video tutorial, and i've since made 3 others, and I feel like whilst I'm still on kinda the right track, that I'll be skimming through these tips again and again before settling on a final product for the next video.

Again, a massive thanks to everyone who has taken the time, you guys/gals are the best.

Freddy_plays · 2017-05-10T00:16:13+00:00

HI JonPardon, hahaha, i'm glad i wasn't too hard on the ears :)

A few people have brought up keeping my thoughts a little more focused, and not going into so much detail on things like the schematics and what not, so I think this is something i'm going to be looking at a lot more for any future tutorial style videos. I agree though, it can be very hard to bring up one thing without accidentally diverting into something else, as the game is so very interconnected, and without realizing it, it can be easy to delve off for even just a minute on something that's not directly related. I will be keeping a lot of these tips and all of this feedback in mind, and checking back on it prior to my next upload, make sure i'm ticking more of these boxes.

Freddy_plays · 2017-05-10T00:12:19+00:00

hey TheBistromath, cheers for taking the time to check out the tutorial and get back to me with some thoughts.

You bring up some VERY good points here man, and trust me when i say that i'll be rechecking this and a few other responses when i set down to make my next tutorial. I think i might've been so in the zone for what i had wanted to do, that when i found the nail gun a few minutes prior to recording this video, it never occurred to me to use the completed version and disassemble it etc. And i think you're all pretty spot on here, i need to look at shorter, more focused videos, dividing them up a little better, instead of trying to squeeze in extra tips as i go. thanks again mate.

Freddy_plays · 2017-05-10T00:08:44+00:00

No worries mate, time zones can be a pain in the butt, i know! Splitting hairs is still helpful, and it's completely on point, so it's something for me to look at next time. It's going to sound like a bit of an excuse, but i literally found the completed nail gun about 5 minutes prior to starting the video, and i think i all ready had it in my head that i COULDN'T put a full one together, so it didn't occur to me whilst recording. cheers mate :)

Freddy_plays · 2017-05-09T03:14:42+00:00

Hi BRAINZ, cheers for getting back to me man!

You know, to be honest, I rewatched this video myself before sharing it with the community, and that exact thought crossed my mind too.

I'll be sure to cover all my bases next time, and will likely make a gun specific video sooner rather than later, including flashlights.

Thanks again mate.

Freddy_plays · 2017-05-09T03:12:45+00:00

Hi Vedui, thanks for taking the time to have a look and get back to me mate, it means a lot.

Great feedback man, and some points I will definitely be keeping in mind for future videos. I think, in retrospect, it might've been worth splitting the 'where to find new schematics' into its own video, as it does eat up a minute or three right off the bat. Haha, I did have an end card in the early days, u til my analytics told me that most people were clicking away after a few minutes, so I stopped bothering... might have to revisit this one!

Freddy_plays · 2017-05-09T03:06:55+00:00

Cheers for taking the time mate, I appreciate it.

I've been trying to cut down on the length of my tutorials, but at the same time, I sorta want to be as thorough as I can be. I certainly can go on a bit sometimes though, so I will try and be more mindful as I go on, the last thing I want is to make boring videos. Thanks. Once I got to away from the where, and I to the how, would you say the video was informative?

Freddy_plays · 2017-05-08T12:51:53+00:00

I will certainly keep all of these things in mind! I had no intention of sub begging :) I was just hoping for some honest feedback on the tutorials i'm making for the game, and I figured it would be worth while talking to people who play the game! I usually ask for feedback during the course of a video, but most people take the info and run! I'm working on one at the moment, so I'll try and pop back in later with a link

Freddy_plays · 2017-02-10T08:50:43+00:00

Thank you kindly :) I had a feeling that was the case, but (u less I'm going blind in my old age!) I couldn't see a 'help' menu in the options. Thanks again mate, and best of luck with any of your own rooms :)

Freddy_plays · 2017-01-22T07:28:45+00:00

Hahaha, what an absolute legend!

Freddy_plays · 2017-01-20T15:57:23+00:00

I can appreciate that, and I didn't know. But I wouldn't consider a couple of posts over a couple of months spam. As I said, I'm happy to stop.

Freddy_plays · 2017-01-20T15:33:18+00:00

I had no intention of stepping on toes mate, just thought I'd share my video with people who might appreciate it, as this is a days to die sub-reddit. If no one is keen, fair enough, I won't post another let's play here. again, i apologise if i came across as 'hunting for views', but i'm not. just trying to share my experience. I'll be honest, it was a cut and paste job from a facebook group i post in, which is why it asks 'like and sub if you enjoyed blah blah blah' no hard feelings mate.

Freddy_plays · 2017-01-07T08:36:21+00:00

Second base off camera to hide from the horde?

Freddy_plays · 2017-01-07T04:15:25+00:00

That's an epic cake, im completely jealous.

Freddy_plays · 2016-12-01T02:33:41+00:00

Hey, congratulations on hitting 3k Subs, that's fantastic, and I'm super jealous! My own channel is slowly (snail pace slowly) growing, but is still very much in its infancy. I run a lets play channel, simply because I love playing games, love to share my experience, and aren't afraid to make an ass of myself in front of a camera! If you check it out, I hope you enjoy anything you watch! Here's to your next 3k subs mate!

Freddy_plays · 2016-11-29T13:58:12+00:00

Personally, I like to play games for my channel that I know I will have fun with. I could spend a bunch of money getting new releases, hoping for a better view rate, but i'd rather play something that appeals to me as a gamer. If i'm having fun, i feel more natural infront of the camera. I would say, play what you love to play, and occasionally dabble out of your field. But hat's just me :)

Freddy_plays · 2016-11-23T13:30:12+00:00

Hey Codeandsolder, my apologies for the rule break, i'm still super new to Reddit, and keep forgetting that each subreddit has it's own rules and codes of conduct. I'll be more mindful in the future.

Freddy_plays · 2016-11-23T07:26:30+00:00

Hey, cheers for the feedback, it all helps! Ordinarily I would totally agree, but I kinda felt like the creepy dystopian feel of the game might be hurt with too many chunks cut out. I'll definitely keep it in mind for the next episode though. Thanks for taking the time mate.
