New Guba

Recommended Posts

I logged off a couple of days ago in Guba, right up on the north-east coast, logged in today and found that they've added a whole lot of new buildings and bulked the town out. I wonder if they've done the same with the empty areas in the north of the map?
 
Essentially the old train station is the same, but the steep rise and most everything in the south-west of the village has been changed. There's a police station, with a cell that you don't seem to be able to enter, and there's now a hospital near the waterfront:

The waterfront itself is a single by Simple Minds has some warehouses and cranes, and there's a square with a church and a typical WW2 monument:

They had kill-on-sight in WW2, as well, in fact it was encouraged. I suspect the town will end up like Berezino, which it resembles - people will generally ignore it, 'cause there's an airfield with military spawns just up the hill, and there's nothing really there. The hills to the north would be excellent sniper spots if there was anybody to snipe, but the rocks will make fantastic camp locations because there's lots of cover and it's not easy to climb up there.

This new town should be a great area for loot and epic firefights between groups in town and up along the rock ridge north of the town. Looking forward to ambushing and being ambushed in and around this new northern town.

I love the new Guba! The addition of the Police station building and medical clinic is great. It's pretty sad right now nothing spawns in them, but that'll be done eventually. Those buildings are sweet!!

All i want to know is how in the beans did you get your night settings to look like that after the patch? That is all.

Gamma exploit... SHAME ON YOU!!

 

The gamma exploit was reduced/fixed in the patch that included the police station in the screen shot. So these night time shots were taken after the patch. Must know the secret! Gimme Video Config, cough it up.....

^ Turned gamma all the way up and brightness, have a black and white zombie game. Nothing more to be done.

Obviously there IS more to be done. Maxed them both and still MUCH darker than that. I wouldn't be able to see the stairs in front of me.

The "secret" in this case is Photoshop's Auto Contrast effect - the screenshots are much much darker in the game. I've found that enabling / disabling clouds helps, though. On this server enabling the clouds makes everything brighter, disabling them turns everything pitch black. In which case you have to navigate with your sense of smell.

We had a firefight there before, somebody combat logged. I really love this new town, it's cool.
