Took the words right out of my mouth. Great post, Whyherro123. You've constructed (;)) a thread that accurately conveys what a lot of us are interested in seeing added to the game.

I think you're referring to the bell in Chernogorsk? That's an environmental sound (timed based on the clock) that players have no control over. OP: neat idea! :)

0.57 Experimental at dusk and early night:

Good evening everyone! I had a chance to romp about Berezino in 0.57 Experimental tonight and I must say, it is much improved. The northern end now has a fire station and a thoroughly reworked layout. Give it a look :)

I was finally able to check out two of the other new school buildings today, in Severograd and Novaya Petrovka. Didn't get a good shot of the one in NP because it got dark, but here is the one in Severograd:

We've got party guests from all over the place, my friend. Even if you don't talk much, it's a good time and I think you'll enjoy yourself no matter what :)

Due to unforeseen circumstances with the Musty hive servers (no one's fault!), the event may need to be moved to the public hive this month. I'll keep everyone updated. Same policy in place as before, however: PM me the day of the event for the IP address :) Get yourselves ready! EDIT: Still on for the Musty hive (events server). See post #44!

Looks a lot like the one I attended as well, right down the courtyard in the middle (except my school was in a squared-off "8" shape with two of them and little ponds).

The school is larger on the inside than it seems on the outside, I will say that. Many classrooms with desks or laboratory tables that would make a shootout interesting. Lots of stairwells, open locker doors, a spacious roof, etc. If I'm being 100% honest, Berezino was probably the city I was least familiar with prior to doing a photo series of it a couple of weeks ago. Because I did that so recently, and so thoroughly explored the city, it was interesting to see the changes. Only the north end of town really changed, I couldn't spot anything major at the south end. Unfortunately, no. They really need to add those and footballs so we can utilize all of the sports facilities! Amen, brother.

Now that you mention it... it IS. That's weird.

I wouldn't mind the help! :) Can't guarantee anything in particular is still there, unfortunately. A lot of the clothing appears to be gone. Lots of everything else though! I lost my Musty hive character the other day, too, so I don't have any of my original stuff from last month's party...

Today's installment of the series is one I was quite excited to do: the biggest city in Chernarus! Click through to the Imgur gallery for optional text. This week, Novodmitrovsk: http://imgur.com/a/jZz91

I lost a big 5-tent camp last week from an official server going dark. Luckily, the event server has not run into any such issues. Stuff from the last event over a month ago is still there :huh: Given today's news about the update, I would say the hive wipe won't occur until after the party at this point. I was really hoping to have 0.56/0.57 for the party, but no big deal. Just means my preparation will be easier (hopefully!) We'd love to have you!

Just did a major overhaul that brought the guide to version 2.0! I'm very proud of what this guide has evolved into, and I want to thank everyone who has given me feedback to help improve it. Added new categories for "How to Take a Screenshot" and "Improvise." The "Settings", "Balance", and outro sections were all majorly updated as well and I added a few new pictures.

That's something that always gets brought up, and I'd love to do it, we just never seem to make it happen :lol: The difficult part about planning for this particular event is not knowing when the Stable wipe will occur. I would have been stockpiling items by now, but they might all get erased before the event :(

Svergino is underrated:

Closing in on the end of 0.55, I've died many times recently for scientific experiments and this is what I've ended up with:

Five, actually :) Even though it wasn't included in their initial compatibility list, it would seem it works with the Trumpet as well (in addition to the Blaze 95, Sporter, CR527, and Winchester).

Thanks for doing all that in the name of science! :) It's been so long since anyone has been interested in the island, so it was nice to see it get some attention for a while.

Ran into this little guy tonight: ...and this just looked cool:

It used to be that "season" (month of the year, or what really amounts to a set ambient temperature) was tied directly to the build of the game. On Experimental, that often changed with every new update in order to test various things. I would be very surprised if temperature varied by server on Stable, simply because I can't think of any good reason why it would or how.Seems very likely that OP experienced a bug allowing them to stay a constant temperature. Doubtful it's easily replicated, and it would sort of be cheating to do so anyway :p

Sigh. We failed again. Not sure how or why, but despite being as prepared as we possibly could be (almost hyperthermic before getting in the water and full waterproof gear) we became hypothermic and died after only an hour. We actually made it farther last time (an hour and a half) being less prepared. :(

Thanks for the tip. I have a pretty good idea of what I'm capable of in the event that I do begin to get cold. I'm confident I can make it either way :)

Wasn't Mizzou's original trip at night? That would totally make sense, but Mizzou was successful at night... weird. Mizzou, you did do this on 0.55 didn't you? Now I'm worried. Odin and I were planning a trip and we're all ready to go, but you're planting the seeds of doubt :| :( EDIT: Was your friend wearing a vest, do you know?

Forgot to ask: what exactly was your outfit for this swim? Looks like Gorka pants, a rain coat, and a hard hat?
