Q. Why does my slug ammo not register for the Remington, double barrel, and m1014 shotguns. (by this i mean, i have more then one clip, but it says i'm out of ammo, and i cant reload...) A. Must be some sort of bug. AA. Also possible you have 2rnd Slugs and your gun needs 8rnd slugs (or vice versa). To change between them, have 4x 2rnd slugs in your inventory and right click on one. It'll say "combine into", if it's an 8rnd right clicking will give the option to de-combine into 4x 2rnd slugs. Also the Slugs and 1866 Winchest ammo are different, be sure you have the right stuff! Winchester takes 1866 ammo Double Barrel takes 2rnd slugs/pellets M1014 and Remington take 8rnd slugs/pellets

Officially, no. The RT servers (US 124-127) are only a very small branch of what they do so it's really not surprising they have no official VOIP server. A user (Nexagelion1) did post about opening a small TS3 server he had to the RT community, I don't know the details and wouldn't post them without his permission anyways. May be able to contact him via the website if you wish to join that though. :) On that note though, if there were to be enough players regularly visiting the RT servers who wished to have a VOIP Server, I am more than willing to open my Mumble Server up to anyone. Only 10-slot for now, but why pay for more than I need atm? If that got popular enough I would upgrade as needed. Only seen a few tagged members, so likely a lot more people around than I know of! Joining before buying isn't that uncommon, gives a chance to see what it's all about, meet people, etc. I come from another community where it's fairly common-place so I may just be use to it. :)

Plenty of RT members around, good many on the RT servers clearly are RT members. Least with [RvB] tags I would hope they are RT members! :) One myself (if it wasn't obvious), mainly play on the RT servers too as the ping is good, timezone is nice, normally space, etc.

Guess I can jump in. :) Xcelsior in-game, considered changing to a more...humanly...name for this game/mod. Afterall, who wouldn't trust the dear Jon Watson? (Wrong spelling, but I'll stick with it being that it's how my name actually is spelled and all!) The friendly eye in the sky. If you're in danger and I'm in range, it'll soon be a very dead threat. Yes, I find high-end Snipers and use them to help players, in particular freshly spawned players...issue? :P Someone puts the life of my partner(s) in danger and they'll soon regret it. Don't endanger me or another innocent and I'll be more than happy to help in any way I can. Afterall, what gives another person the right to decide who lives and who dies? <S> Xcelsior Bearcats

More people like that would be nice. Ran into someone like that once. Was down to ~1100 blood after multiple gunshots, zombies, falling, basically anything that can cause damage. Was waiting on the roof of the Hospital, Rifle ready for that one guy who wanted to finish me. Suddenly I looked behind me...guy with an axe just standing there. Quick words of "friendly" and he agreed to give a blood trans. He coulda killed me, had plenty of time, but instead he helped me, I gave him an unloaded M1911 (had no ammo for it at the time) for his help and we went on our way. I try to help, but people make it so hard. I use to snipe off zombies as a fresh player got to close to them in Elektro, but someone decided I shouldn't be doing that and axed me. Lately I just avoid going near people. Only ever killed 1 person (maybe 2), but they were justified in my eyes.

While i don't know the technical side of it (wiki links explanations), I am just going off personal experience. :) I clearly don't know the area the map is located (never left East Coast US) but some of the common sounds couldn't change that much from place to place could they? With the Water sound, I know some places may be louder than others depending on what the water is coming into contact with, how windy it is, etc, but it just seems off. Unless I have a setting wrong the "beach" at Cherno, for example, is incredibly loud. Plus it just seems to cut off for me, one second water sounds, and the next there is none. It fades some, but not to the point of a whisper before getting drowned out. Guns, I have only fired / heard a few, as mentioned, but it just felt like they were a bit too quiet at the point of firing. Obviously volume of speakers plays into that, but in comparison it feels a little low. Obviously I can only go off personal experience, and don't really know the technical side of how it would get coded, or even how objects affect sound travel and such (only basic understandings), but personally it just felt off a little. It is just a suggestion though, and it's always open for input! :D

If anyone was on US125 (pretty sure it was) that keeps an eye on the "Zombies alive/total" counter....it was dropping because of us. :P Got a friend to try the game so we started out like normal, he spawned near Cherno and I was in Elektro with some gear. I headed his way, we met up and looted Cherno best we could with no issues. Well, we had to kill someone in self defense, idiot tried firing at us (top floor of the Fire House) from the middle of the street with an M1911, ~110m shot. Landed damn close, but alas our Enfield won the day. To think he coulda lived if he had just not shot, I only shoot those who shoot me. After looting town and heading out we got to a small town just north of Cherno and got in a bit of a bad spot. I had no crossbow bolts and we had to kill 1, but shooting would alert a horde....we shot it. That alerted about 15 of em and I only had 17 shots (G17) and he had plenty of M19 ammo. After standing in the middle of the road fighting it our for about 3 mins we headed north some more and got to a stable. He says "I saw a door around this way" while I headed to a door around the other way, that I knew was clear....he shoulda listened. He had to kill a zombie he agro'd right as he turned the corner to his door....and all hell broke loose. That shot alerted 35+ zombies to come charging over a hill at us movie-stampede style. I was already in the barn kinda waiting for him when I heard "OH GOD, I'm dragging some in!" ....1 zombie appears....2...3....10...15...20...25.... He didn't want to waste AK ammo and I had no pistol ammo so we had to fight off an entire horde coming through 2 doors with 1x Enfield and 1x M1911. We started the fight with 30 Rifle shots and ~80 M19 shots....ended with 0 Enfield and ~19 M19 shots. We decided to cut our loss there and head out the back and leave well enough alone. When we looped back around there were still loads of them pouring into the stable from who-only-knows-where. We got to a safe house and sat for a min...and he did it again.... His game glitched/minimized and it caused him to fire a shot in the middle of town. We called it quits as we saw another horde rushing us. So to anyone who saw the counter going down rapidly last-night on US125....yea....it was "fun". :D
