    How old are you?

    40, 1500+ hours, no pvp except in self defense Edit: Back in the day there was an fps called Enemy Territory, and the OFC or Old Farts Clan. Someone should use the name. Most of this thread could join. http://www.ofclan.com/

    Status Report - 26 Nov 2015

    Death by pitchfork? That was totally uncalled for, fucking brutal. Yes! Not an ounce of fat on that status report! Wow Like everyone else, small object manipulation caught me off guard. So many possibilities! \m/

    Status Report - 29 Jul 2015

    Great news! I assumed my base vanished due to bugginess because I only left it for a couple hours after setting it up. Full car tent, partially full mil tent, and a campfire with 10 loose logs lying around it. But this news (Zero pitched tents have been cleaned up) means it's more likely that someone took the tents. The game dutifully cleaned up the firewood and whatever else the marauding varmints left for me to frown at.

    Fix things before adding new things.

    Fixing things before adding new stuff is backwards. Add things, then fix what breaks. Repeat. "The alpha phase usually ends with a feature freeze, indicating that no more features "will be added to the software. At this time, the software is said to be feature complete." -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_release_life_cycle

    Questions before buying a server

    1. Yes. With Fragnet it's a simple drop-down box. Stop the server, choose a start time, restart the server. Done. 2. No.
  7. About an hour after Fragnet started up my servers post-update, 1 master and 1 slave shard, I still got that message: "Bad version, server rejected connection." After another two hours, they blamed loot. "...the only resolution currently confirmed working is the deletion of the loot storage file." They say a lot of their customers had this issue today. The resolution didn't work for me. Does anyone have a potential fix? Thanks

    Private master, bad version, conn rejected

    The nuclear option worked (reinstall).

    Private master, bad version, conn rejected

    Yes, updated to 0.55.127157. It successfully validated the cache in Steam. Not sure what else to do. No one has connected to the server since it became available in the server browser post-update. Master -- 69.31.134.66:2502 Slave -- 69.31.134.10:2302

    What is going on? - "Bec Service has been terminated."

    :huh: Should all server owners expect BEC to terminate? Or is that up to the GSP? I don't know how nuxil licensed BEC, etc... Thanks NVM! Map the ibattle domains to loopback

    My connection crashes my server

    Nevermind! Validating my steam cache fixed it. :/

    What can i do if i dont trust anybody?

    I needed a laugh. Geckofrog's Law instead of Godwin's Law. xD A true relic imo is Enemy Territory. I loved that game, always played on the Tiger Town server.

    What can i do if i dont trust anybody?

    Guessing how people will react to surprise human contact is a challenging aspect of the game. Recently I tailed a guy who only drew his gun before entering a building and put it away after carefully checking his exit was clear. I watched him aim at another looter, then let him go. So I decided the risk of making contact was worth it and approached him. I asked from a safe distance if he needed anything. (He had regular clothes and a child's backpack.) He opened fire so I put him down. The level of unpredictability in this game is nerve-wracking and addictive. Another option in addition to all the good comments above is finding like-minded players in the Recruitment section here. It lists a wide variety of teams, clans and communities that update constantly.
  18. Back then rules couldn't be enforced. They served as a guide for RPers who wanted structure. Our members were honest with each other about their play styles and had fun. Just read their posts. Over the next week we will be updating our forums to accommodate our new private shard, so drop by again when you get time! Visit us at http://falcondayz.boards.net/ <video>

    Slingshot (hand catapult)

    Lower power than the weakest pistol but headshots could knock unconscious PCs with unprotected noggins.

    A real good suggestion before people move on!

    Adding one thing can interfere with existing things. Finding out why and fixing it can be problematic. Edit: idk how to put it more simply. Google game testing or software development cycle.

    A real good suggestion before people move on!

    Because those 1,000 items will break stuff. Add first, then test.

    So, are vehicles coming in 0.50 or not?

    Generally, Alpha releases are for adding, testing features. Beta begins once the game is "feature complete" and focuses more on bugs, stability and performance.
