I need some info about military tents and server maintenance
McWendy replied to JokersWarPig's topic in General Discussion
You will need to pick up the tent and carry it as a backpack. What i would like to know is: at what time does maintenance starts? (Specific gmt times wanted) And what time is maintenance usually over? -
I confirm this.
-
I had the exact same thing with; -crafting improvised stone knife (items just dissappear) -filling canteens -picking apples -cutting burlap strips All suggested workarounds may appear to work, in my experience they dont and i think its just that "4th or 5th" right try that occurs. Thankfull it doesnt happen that much tho ;) But it shouldnt happen (oke alpha yadayada) Reloggin is what i do. :)
-
No private has decent pop 24/7 if that were the case id join it instantly. So with my fluctuating work times i have to switch servers in order to get my usual pop. I thought i agreed that just privates are a bad idea. (Or did you mean publics ;))
-
Some people work 24/7 and should be able to pick a server pop of there choosing. Being locked to a server means you have to settle on what you get. Not all privates have decent pops. Timezones kill activity on servers. I do think however that pubs need to have a timer. Or x many pubs per day allowed.
-
Well then maybe you are right. I notice stable and (more)unstable servers. You said it. I was thinking it. ;)
-
Good to know ;) I will look for it in future posts. Kudos for you for keeping other people on their toes. :)
-
F*ck did i do a sheldon cooper? ;) My bad.
-
Im not saying that in this game its not all about pvp. But your argument that it should be like this because the real world will be like this is bs. Keep at it keyboard warrior.
-
No offense but you have no idea what you are talking about. You just wanna kos. But your; people will shoot everyone in apocalyptic fase is just plain bs. Ive seen the hell of war and yes its very very ugly. But beautifull things also happen when lives/futures are at stake. Your argument is just an excuse to do what you WANT to do, kos. Your endline says that much
-
Server related i guess. Some work beautifully and others are unstable as fook
-
Let stuff be on the server till it goes from pristine to ruined and then dissolves. (Or gets picked up) All gear should stay untill dissolved through "age" if you will. You could make stashes of loot by hiding it somewhere. And due the course of time it will degrade. Hope this helped. :)
-
Yeah this poll needs some more options as to why people kill. I usually play hero style solo. Helping people out. In a group we usually play the bandit style. Robbing people, leg shooting, kidnapping, ambushes, stalking everything but KOS. And sometimes we have a 'fuck u its friday night shits ang giggles style' and shoot everything that moves. So a little bit of all i guess.
-
Well thats just silly. Compasses can still be bugged!! Use at own risk. (Last night 4 compasses 4 different norths..)
-
No i believe it was stated that they fixed it with maintenance or that small mb patch we had. Not sure which. But it works.
-
The compass bug has been fixed. Pristine compasses show true north.
-
Fire and smoke giving away your position?
McWendy replied to Old_Crow_Whiskey's topic in General Discussion
I too would like to know the render distance for smoke. Fire or crash smoke. And are these open for manipulation via settings? Ie increase render distance? -
They took them out for the time being i believe. They could be annoying as f*ck. Clinging onto your character. The zombie model was good. Its mechanics werent.
-
Doesnt the one carrying the Ak and all have more to lose than a bambi? ;) But i agree if you didnt KoS before dont do it now because of some (ok maybe alot) of bad experiences .
-
Voted: -persistance would love to see it work properly but i understand it is quite a task -AC pretty obvious. In a game where lives are more valuable than in just a respawn game this needs to have top priority. The playerbase will come to a halt or even a decrease. People can take only so much unfair respawns. -Actions failing <<< thats just bs. Make a stone knife and lose the item. Try it 100 mtrs down the road and it will work again (or sometimes not at all) The other stuff i dont really mind. Have hardly any lag, hot and cold is no problem unless your a pvp hoe. < ;) and keep sprinting/camping all the time. Loot needs to be fixed but needs to be scarce.
-
Tension, humor, depression, social interaction etc its all there. Keep writing and have some beans! :)
-
Good read during lunch,so thank you for that. :)
-
How do you set up your hotbar, and why?
McWendy replied to IReadTheAgreement's topic in General Discussion
I see what u did there. :) 1 melee 2 secondary 3 primary 4 sawn off (when available) or bino 5 rangefinder 6 meds 7 water 8 defib/epi 9 missc. -
Make people hostage and use them to push your cart? ;) I like your idea of carts. Would be logical and i can imagine some nice ambush possibilities. Book of eli anyone? :)
-
I agree. Most spawns allready go Yolo bananas on your ass. We dont need more. Some people will also respawn till they get the disease they dont mind the most. I do however would like diseases ingame and multiple stages of a disease. So maybe at first of say a headache painkillers will be enough. But when ignored too long it will turn into a migraine and you will need a constant supply/dose of painkillers or similar. But not a rng disease from start.
