    Why doesen't owner of this game update we have an infinite amount of inventory deposit,instood of we sell or drop items we just add more and more things in inventory.

    I'm getting angry cause every time i add some things in inventory who could be useful to me I have to drop or sell stuff.This really pisses me so curses.

    Thanks for your input. The ambition is to make a survival horror game with a somewhat realistic gameplay. Being able to carry an infinite amount of items wouldnt mix with this concept however that is also why you can build safehouses. In your safehouse you can build storage facilities where you can save your gear.

    Another trick is increasing your strength (skill points) and getting a good bag will also increase your encumbrance and thus how much you are able to carry.

    I respectfully disagree, mujkicmirza. This is one of the things I believe the devs have got right. (Or close enough to make me happy). There is only so much anyone can carry, and part of the game is deciding what to keep and what to toss, when to sell and when to hang on. It may be a bit frustrating at times, but any game worth playing is frustrating once in a while.

    I can go further. Incorporating issues such as limited stamina and limited encumbrance is what promises to make this game something a notch above. The game could quite easily become just another shooter, what Demek calls "zombiesafari", and I would hate to see that happen. If anything, we need more strategic elements in the game (or to further the strategic elements already there) to add to the tactics of find zed, select weapon, close to distance, shoot and collect $$. Click, click, click, click.

    Well,I... got my Encumbrance over filled.Or you could add ap's for disturbeting and gaining extra more space.for storing in encumbrance,that could be proven very useful.Indeed,just a thought

    Do you have a clan? Clan safehouses have storage facilities that could store your excess encumbrance.

    This.

    Also, one of the challenges of the game is managing your weight (no pun intended). Without that, you could pick up all the random crap you find and sell them for a couple bucks, making more than you currently do. Right now, you need to be selective in your loot; your suggestion would destroy the challenge.

    Don't tell me you are even serious about the infinite inventory space!
    After the infinite inventory maybe they should eliminate the stamina so you can move all around the maps. And after you finish exploring all the 3 maps and reach lvl 200 in less than a day, what next? Game over and restart?
    This idea shouldn't even be here.

    I agree totaly, every game I've played (pc, console, online MMO, even paper-pencil-and-dice RPG) has an inventory cap.
    Be thankful you have the capacity you got here.....most games have less.
    You have to keep into account weight restrictions and bag/luggage capacity.
    .....if you want a "Bag of Holding" then you're playing the wrong game
    A better suggestion would be the ability to use some sort of transportation you find in-game....like a bicyle, motorcycle, car, truck, van....etc-etc-etc...or even a shopping cart from a grocery store
    .....and that would not fly in a game like this
    .....defetes the perpose

    With the recently released update we have introduced new attack types and new combat effects. It's important to stress that this is still the early phase of the planned advanced combat system which will also include a much more graphical interface and loot from killed opponents as well as being able to equip bayonets, scopes and other extensions to your weapons.
