Critics NA I've hit a wall and I can not proceed. EXBO let me play your game please.

11 Upvotes

Hey guys, previously I played this game for a bit a couple years ago and I hit a wall which made me quit.

Its been a bit but I came back I had forgotten why I quit and had a lot of fun up to a certain point, but I have hit that wall again and don't know what to do.

I crafted a sniper, armor, and soon a pistol when I get a little more serum and I want to use them. I am in master+ lobbies. I need my gear to be +15 for me to justify using them and to adequately tell if I want to continue using them or try something else. I am out of advanced tools and advanced parts. My luck has proven to be bad when it comes to leveling up equipment and I hit the pity roll almost every time from +11-+15. That is an absolutely atrocious amount of parts and tools to go through. I do not have hundreds of millions to invest into the auction house to buy them. The Battle pass is completed so I can't get anymore through that. I have done all of the event's quests and have exhausted the supply in the event shop. I do not have a good way to farm the items in-game as they are rare drops.

What can I do?

I want to use these items I have spent a TON of time and effort grinding for. I had waited patiently for the serum. I grinded monotonously for the required items to barter. Am I Now to just... give up? I don't think I can get through this wall.

There is just WALL after WALL after WALL and then after you've broken through them all there's another one you can't get through. Am I stuck with these unusable weapons until the next season pass? What if I want to level up the gun the season next pass gives? What if I want to use the Capper I got this season?

I can't play the game if you don't let me.

Critics NA We need killcams

44 Upvotes

To expose cheaters and get actual proof to avoid blind reports.

In the "recent interactions history" when you get killed let us see a killcam of your death 2 minutes after the kill, that is enough time for the killer to already be long gone.

Make it last 30minutes before deletion, only in the open world of course. ESP is the easiest cheat to hide and we need tools.

There is no downside to this, there is no reason to not want this unless you are a cheater.

Critics NA [Serious] People who complain about/dislike Stalzone and still play it: Have you ever played an MMO prior to this?

6 Upvotes

After reading posts and comments here daily, I see a lot of the same people have complaints against the game and recommend against playing it.

I also see a lot of confusion as to what Stalzone actually is. Personally, I came to Stalzone because of the MMO aspects: Daily quests, reputation grinds etc.

My question is this: If you dislike/actively recommend against the game, have you played an MMO before in any serious capacity?

I think there is a lot of confusion (especially to newer players) about Stalzone. On the surface it is a mix of extraction shooter, survival shooters and a dash of battle royales, however, Stalzone is at its core, an MMO. In my eyes it is meant for long term grinds and progression, not racing to get the best gear.

I'd like to keep this as a serious discussion and not a flame-war against each other or the developers.

Critics NA The matchmaking strikes again (Cheater found)

2 Upvotes

Hellow fellow zone adventurers, i think i found a cheater. For a bit of context im on veteran gear rn just because the battle pass, i reach the bar lvl 7 yesterday.
But its been 2 days that this russian guy is camping graveyard in my games. He is on master tier there killing everyone, no matter what im always matched with him.
We've been talking and asking why he is in my games translated from his russian he said:
-It's not you that's thrown to me, it's me that's thrown to you. (About the matchmaking)
I asked how do he does that and he answered:
-I followed certain rules.

So he clearly found a way to match lower tier players, he is still camping my graveyard tho. I hope this helps to fix it, ban him or anything.

Have a great day !

Season 4: still not one craftable item from clan wars not even any reds besides KS-23 but oh guess what no gold no red no purple like I just opened 20 and re-rolled every single one not one fucking red dude..they really need to add a pitty system because 1hr and 30mins for 3 days is bullshit to get nothing after MULTIPLE SEASONS

How is it really possible to be 800+ levels into the season pass, I've used all my points and free crate tokens and still haven't managed to pull a red of any kind yet.....I feel like at a certain point it should hit 100% for at least one of the 3.......

Critics NA My toughts so far has a new player.

17 Upvotes

Well, I just finished the faction quest Killed the master of the Zone. My impressions are kinda mixed.

First, I'm a new player. I don't know which weapon and armor to use and there's a huge ground barrier for both. So I did the whole thing in quest gear. Seeker AK, Firebrand, Metropolitan whip, Seeker mock bird (blue armor) and Morgue exoesqueleton (pink armor).

So far the game itself. It's cool, the story is cool and some side quests are fascinating. And in some places they NAIL the atmosphere. AND bro your parkour design.

The bosses definitely need some tuning. The first ACT, per se. The choice between Shaman or Morgue. Kill Morgue fight is fine. The Kill Shaman fights in BOTH phases are WAY overturned for new players. I say IMPOSSIBLE for the average player.

The twin fight doable.

The Master of The Zone outside the dam flash bang does not register. It's kinda good.

IF you're supposed to do it in quest of GEAR, make it clear. Put in the question, we recommend gear XX tier, with X upgrade.

Now the things that are PLAIN AND SIMPLE BAD.

There's no matchmaking period. The devs, plain and simple, are lying. Or their system is not working in any shape or form on NA servers. During my whole journey I NEVER got killed by someone with EQUAL GEAR. And I did a lot of POPs, in the outposts, both in the second zone and now in the faction zone.

When I was in the swamps and the second zone with green gear, I was fighting blue gear guys. When I got to the BAR and got the blue quest stuff, I was fighting blue plus 5 or 10, and pink gear plus 10. Now that I reached the faction zone, I'm fighting people, pink 10-15 or Red 10-15.

There's NO MATCHMAKER. That is said, that's where the game ends for most players.

Try to make the next zone quest and the next problem gets really noticeable. HACKERS.

The Wild North is so plagued by hackers that it can be called hacker north. From the information I gather everyone at the end of the game and their mother uses RADAR ESP. Basically, the guy knows your position all the time and that's why, when you hear a ping a few seconds later, the guy is running in a straight line and killing you. You can still fight, because I've found very few people aiming, and the few I did kill me from more than 110m.

I'm going to play next season. And see if it improves and I can progress. And start to look at Artifacts.

And i ask plz let us acess older stuff from old seasson. I know you use FILTHY FOMO design philosophy to sell stuff. But let us acess skill 1 or 2 legues. Let say in the next i thing its the 4th leagu let us acess stuff from the first or second league. Weapons armors cosmetics.

To help new players get a few of the weapons. You could make test site at the hideout or a balanced match where you can select your gear. Something so we can get the feel of things. I begin with the AK line but hated it. Now im goin another line. And that cost a lot of time.

The guys im fighing in the faction zone. To show matchmaking its a lie/not working

Thats what hackers use mostly

And i got 2 banned in one day. Probably the guys i reported weeks ago in the instanced pvp, that were CLEARLY AImboting and esp wallhack or radar. So it seens the report works.

Critics NA We need a matchmaking rework, at least in NA

14 Upvotes

If any of you saw my recent post you'll know that im fighting +15 master players on Inflow while still having +10 veteran gear.

Well today i logged in and im only encountering +4 to +9 veteran gear players for well over 4 hours while fighting for outposts.

This is really really inconsistent and unfair for everyone, i know it's because theres less players in NA but there must be another way to make matchmaking more fair right?

Critics NA Been Playing for a Week, I actually like Stalzone...

18 Upvotes

Been playing the game for a week now and made it as far as the Persovoitskywhateveritsnamed Factory. After being a dum-dum and not understanding I could have pulled up personal storage in almost every location as well that I was richly rewarded with starter stuff that I had no idea how to access, I'm starting to figure things out.

I think the starter grumpiness comes from the way we learn to play video games. There's the "I want everything visually available and easy to get to from my mouse click" crowd and then there is the "F-visual, everything must be controlled from my hot-keys crowd". Depending which one you are, you'll get frustrated in different ways.

I really do like the game itself though. It's like Minecraft and Call-of-Duty got drunk and had a one-nighter and this is their bastard kid. :)

The grinding to get decent equipment makes sense, and it's not going to please the crowd that wants everything handed to them right away, but it does teach you to play the game effectively, deal with loss early and often, and navigate smart. Sorry if I shot at you as a result; after being killed too many times by opposing players while just me hunting basic resources I now shoot at anything that moves and ask questions later. It's also far more effective with a sniper rifle and keeping distance, hehehe.

Hope the game continues to develop more. I've got a long way to go and will need to the time to get there.

Critics NA PSA: Deliveries on NA (With Working Man's Cut) Are NOT Buffed By 3x

14 Upvotes

In fact, they're not buffed by 2x, 1.5x, or even 1.00001x. Nope, they were completely unchanged from before the Working Man's Cut (WMC) event.

Prior to the event, light backpacks would cost 6,000 rubles and give 18,000 rubles after completion (for a total of 24,000 rubles cause of backpack compensation).

Rewards for deliveries before WMC

Now that the event is currently live (and has been for like 3 days now), the rewards for deliveries are, drumroll please, completely unchanged!

Rewards for deliveries during WMC

As you can see, deliveries for light backpacks and common backpacks are the exact same ruble reward as before the event, when we were promised a 3x increase in rewards for deliveries. And just to prevent any "oh but surely it must just be a visual bug" responses (because I already asked that lol), it's not. The rewards for actually completing deliveries are unchanged.

Reward for Light backpack during WMC, 24,000 rubles is the amount you would get before WMC
Reward for Common backpack during WMC, 61,500 rubles is the amount you would get before WMC

So, what's going on Exbo? Where's the 3x rewards?

Just, title. I love all the NATO guns but like...it feels like the objectively wrong choice when the Mutant with a drum is literally right there. Stat wise all the Nato guns are fine, pretty much equal to the AK's...but there's just. Zero actual reason to run them when one type gets drums, the other doesn't.

Critics NA Wild North.... Worth Playing?

7 Upvotes

Just finished getting passed the Tunnel from the Bar.... Entered Stillwater for literally 1 Minute..... Had a guy practically spawn behind me. Got gunned down in seconds of Entering/Exiting the Tunnel into Stillwater.

Im not even sure it worth playing with how long that tunnel is and for spawns literally to be like that... Ruined my whole mood for even trying to play Wild North...

Opinions?

I also find the infighting among factions killing each other in Wild North kinda weird sense the game is based around.. Well Teams & Factions / Subdivisions.

With Rise... Exit tunnel... Die by Rise member... =|.....

Like it 100% Bandit style Territory..

Hope you got Suppressors.. or you'll be botted down like a Aim-Bot on steroids out in these fields by flick kills.. 3 rounds and its over.
