Theres been a question i havent found in any video yet, theres a specific sound thats almost a single ping or a chime if you will that i heard go off a few times just 20 seconds before the game sounded the alarm for radiation, im trying to figure out if it signals that players have, left/evacuated/died or not if you can find this out and make a video for it that would be fantastic, lot of different sounds in the game

[@AfflictedGamer]

@@TheConsolekid123 A ping or a chime? Hmmm I have heard alot of different ambient sounds in the game and some I still don't know what they are but I can't place hearing something like a chime... I'll look into it but of course no promises because I don't know if I'll actually get an answer.

just downloaded this game since it was free and didn't know much about it and so looked on here and found your channel. Great vid man, hope to lean more from your channel. I still play Survival on Division but about to give this a try.

[@AfflictedGamer]

I hope you enjoy it and appreciate the support! I wish they would have added survival to The Division 2, with their weather dynamics I think it could have been pretty good but sadly they didn't seem to want to replicate the success they had with it in D1.

[@billy_cross]

I did not know that about car alarms I know they went off from people can hear them I didn’t know that it was on the Bam however ride it doesn’t matter if you set off an alarm of any sort you really should vacate that area unless you’re looking for a fight

[@billy_cross]

Play station doesn’t have a way home it’s the square box to try holster your weapon and as far as the quick wheel goes you have to actually select a weapon you’re thinking of the triangle on a PlayStation once you equip Jordan from weapons you can switch between them with the triangle

If I go back an start the tutorial will it reset my player am only on lvl 10 at the min like but got some good stuff so not sure if it will take it all away from me

[@billy_cross]

The Thompson is almost an instant craft it’s got a decent fire rate the range is kind of low now at all I mean it doesn’t have a long range so you kind a got to be at mid range to use it but as a starting weapon goes it is not bad you just have to fire him first and the nice thing about it is you can craft it right from the start the bad thing is is the ammo stacks are only 20 so I can carry any ammo you have to use a lot of slots in your inventory but then tell you get crafting bench and other things upgraded so you can craft other weaponsA reasonable pace it’s probably the best choice I mean I am by crafting my house upgraded to a light level seven my crafting bench is upgraded as far as I can go right now and I think I have a like 30% increase in grafting time or decrease whatever and it still takes forever to craft anything decent any kind of decent weapon I really like your star one craft are you go fight a battle when you get back it’s done you start another one and then you go fight a battle I mean serious leave the crafting in this game kind of sucks you should be able to tell it to craft tan at all and then walk away

[@billy_cross]

In case I suck at PVP and I still managed to kill two or three people many times and single matches and come out with all my loot more about being patient and not trying to push up on people who have better gear and weapons and mostly you know avoiding fights and less you have to because you know your gear sucks compared to people of been playing since December

[@o.j.phillips7754]

Do people need to loot the stash picture before it spawns? I bumped across a lot of digging points with nothing on it on early or midgame, so I wondered if I need to have the photo on me or I can get lucky and dig out some random loot.

[@AfflictedGamer]

You don't need the picture to find the burried cache but it can be hard to find the right hole to dig up as there are 17 possible locations on each map. I just check them as I pass them while in encounters just incase I get lucky and find it, if I find the picture first however that's a different story.

[@heyitsdurancitooo5212]

I just started the game today and before I entire encounters, I’m low on ammo so my question is how do I get ammo if I can’t craft any do I just join the encounter and try to find ammo while staying clear from other people?

[@AfflictedGamer]

If you open up your menu, go to weapons you will see that you have some weapons and ammo to start out with. You also can complete daily challenges to award you with crates which (depending on the crate) can give you weapons, parts and sometimes blueprints. Air drops also give you blueprints for weapons & ammo in their crates and you can of course search while in encounters for weapons as well as kill other players and take their stuff.

[@AfflictedGamer]

The car alarms can pin point your location if someone decides to pull up their map to see which car has their alarm going off giving away your position unless you decide to move away from that area.

[@staticpiece]

When will they update the game so you can trade/give guns to friends /noobs?

[@AfflictedGamer]

Season 7 is just over a week away and trading is not part of that update or coming to the game period. If someone can give all of the best weapons/consumables to anyone they want then it takes away the reason to grind, level up, collect air drops for weapon plans ect..

[@Castout2008]

Can you tell me why I cant ever find a match like I'll be matchmaking for like 5 minutes and cant find a match

[@AfflictedGamer]

Which platform are you on? I find one within 1 minute on PSN and Xbox... One thing you can try is if you get to 1:40 cancel matchmaking and restart it. There were a few server issues the past week but they should be fine by now. Let me know if you still have this issue along with your platform and region so that I can pass the information back to the team.

[@Iggypops]

can i ask why you think shooting in third person is better? I play a lot of different shooters so my first person aim is pretty good, and i feel more comfortable shooting with an iron sight at range than with the over the shoulder. obviously up close over the shoulder is better, but from mid to long range i prefer iron signts.

[@AfflictedGamer]

In Vigor it is much more accurate to shoot in third person, depending on the weapon of course. If you use one with a scope than of course switch between 1st and 3rd person, but if you are primarily running an smg or AR it is not only easier but as I mentioned above, more accurate over all. Sorry for the delay in my response but KZbin doesn't always give me all of my notifications.

The photos are a hint as to where you can find a burried cache in that particular encounter. It takes time to get familiar with each map to be able to find the cache spots but when you do it's well worth it.

How do telephones work?

[@AfflictedGamer]

You either ring it or answer it, after that you and the person on the other end will be revealed to one another on the map so that you can 1 v 1 them unless you or they get killed before you find them.

[@Takeawaytruck1995]

So it basically makes you visible to the enemy? Damn for me, a player that doesnt bring weapons into encounters this would surely be something i won't do Btw i noticed not a lot of people go try and do timed safes and only one or two of them go for a barred house. Most of the time i just find a random guy who doesn't have weapons going for it after i opened it and i just let him have most of the loot.

[@lasvegasnextexit1230]

Great job on the video, too bad I don't like the game. I was kind of hoping it was a new Fallout style game but instead it's just Black Ops with worse gear and better graphics. The shoot & loot game play is not something I enjoy and the experienced players ALWAYS ruin the fun for anyone new. Losing equipment every death makes players avoid others in the game world or it puts them into revenge mode wanting to kill every person on the map and steal everything they found. The crafting is a grind because every time you go into a map, you are scrounging for items to craft things that others are just going to take from you when those more experienced players snipe you from out of nowhere. Person against person combat is never fun when one is armed to the teeth and the folks they are hunting have a knife or don't even have weapons. Then there is the character generation, having the choice to be preset characters, with the same preset clothes as everyone else (until you grind or kill enough to get upgrades) there isn't anything cool about your character, you are just one of many. This makes spotting the experienced players easy at the load in screen but it also shows everyone else who they should avoid. I don't know how many times the most experienced player, with the most decked out character is the person that kills my character, looting what little I gathered. Better looking characters equal out to be the characters that are going to be the worst to encounter. If folks were able to actually build their character from the start instead of having to grind for new clothing items, most wouldn't be able to tell how new a player is. The micro transactions REALLY make the game no fun and are a big turn off for me. As much as I wanted to love VIGOR, I found myself disliking it the more I played. I give you thumbs up for the information and for the video but the game VIGOR gets thumbs down from me.

[@AfflictedGamer]

I appreciate your feedback and I do agree with you on some of the points you made. Vigor isn't for everyone and you do get 10 encounters that are all with other new players but then after that you get put into the pool with everyone else, is 10 too little? I don't know but I wish there was another way for new players to not have to face against vets who have been playing since day one. I agree about the mtx and the prices being way to high and I really hope they change that in the future, who knows maybe down the line you may reconsider giving the game another go and if not atleast you did give it a chance. Thank you again for your comment and support!

[@lasvegasnextexit1230]

@@AfflictedGamer I've played it for about a week now and I really wanted to love playing it but there isn't much that I love about it. There was almost no instruction when starting out and I'm still not sure what any of the rewards I earned do or mean. To give an example, I died from radiation the first two plays with no instruction on what to do when you get radiation. The player starts with nothing so it's either loot and run to the next exit or get picked off by others. I will admit the sound and graphics are really good, maybe better than any other online game I've played thus far but the game play is seriously lacking for me. The thrill of loosing my equipment is not something that makes me want to continue playing because I don't want my primary focus in the game being to take out other players. I guess I thought there was more to the game than shooting others in the face to steal their stuff and there are small things that show a glimmer of something bigger and cooler. I don't know, I was expecting a lot more exploration and settlement building within a new post apocalyptic world instead of, "let's shoot and loot a bunch of people" kind of game. Maybe my expectations were too high. I will be honest, I don't like co-op/multi-player games because trying to figure out a new game is not easy and when vets are just in the game to kill everyone, it's not really fun. I know this game has to be played online with others and that has become a drawback, I wouldn't mind a solo adventure that doesn't require so much shooting other real world player's characters. Is the only other goal in VIGOR to build up a homestead that can't be shared with others?

[@lasvegasnextexit1230]

I haven't played Fortnite...What's strange for me is that this game WANTS you to kill other players...there is a reward for doing so. As of tight now I made about 15 runs and killed 2, needless to say I have low overall stats. VIGOR pushes players into shooting each other, there are no mutant monsters or zombies to fight, just other players. The one good thing about VIGOR, it's not a frustrating as DAYZ where your character is dying after 5 mins from hypothermia, dehydration, bleeding out and/or starvation.

@@PsyTranceKaitia I have like 5 kills in 35+ times going out and collecting 2 airdrops..... I am not into shooter games that pit players against each other to steal resources. The game is no fun and players like you are the reason it does suck for players like me that don't go out to hunt players. It's a shoot and loot where you can lose everything you gathered...so where is the fun in that? Unless you give up 60 in game coins for insurance, but when your outpost generates 5 a day, it's actually a waste of in game resources...or pay real world money...again what's the fun in that? I also have No Clue what you are talking about with "teams," every player is out to kill each other and only one person contacted me about becoming a team member but I was sniped 2 mins in so I couldn't even reach the area he was talking about. The game does not promote teamwork as far as I can tell, it is set up for players to kill each other. Sure it looks and sounds good but the purpose of the game is a turn off to adventure game players.
