My dad had the Contender when I was growing up.  Scary thing was the .357 harrett he shot out of it.  It was a prefired and trimed 30-30 shell with a .357 loaded onto it.  Think there was 150 diff barrels you could get for it.

Just started on this server today, and already found a camp up north. Will leave a note for whoever that is let them know I am in the area.  Not into stealing or shooting anyone unless I have to defend myself.

I go by Atom on the server.

  

Eh Atom... If you want post a photo of your character that way we know you're on the good side. If we have an encounter it's a little easier to be cool.

Those tents have been there for over 3 weeks like that. They randomly reoriented themselves and are unable to be packed.  Also, its a higher traffic area up there now because of Tisy base; especially in the area where you found those tents.

Your knowledge of the map is absolutely incredible.

Pants will change when I get a better match.

Green cargo pants will do. Sent you a pm- disregard what I was saying about the photo now that I've seen it. If you want to choose an armband of a certain colour you can share that in PM... gives us an extra tell in the event we stumble into one another. SOMETIMES it helps- unfortunately sometimes it doesn't.

Wonder if everyone is working on experimental? Been slow again but not seeing the usual regulars in anymore. I guess with vehicle persistence being a continuing issue people are getting bored with Shift-W.

Been frustrated with vehicle persistence lately, so I've been taking a few days away from the game. I'll probably play tonight.

Yeah we've pretty much just ignored vehicles unless we find one that's almost complete and have missing parts on us. 

 

even then vehicles are in a state that is barely playable. The desync from anything but the drivers position is just idiotic, and watching a vehicle from a distance (i.e.: 50ft or more) renders only the husk of an unfinished vehicle with no driver or passenger until you get closer than that. Vehicle on vehicle is as clunky and awkward as Irish on Irish porn and the mechanics of actually driving a vehicle what with the status of tires etc is embarrassingly bad. 

 

But with all that said as shitty as that all is it's still better than shift-w

Hey All.

I am back in town and want to get on for a few hours tonight.

If anyone wants to swap for my SVD and my AUG let me know. I have mags for both.

Looking for a Winchester and a Longhorn and a pocketful of ammo.

I know a few of our guys are taking a bit of a break since .60 has been less than inspiring what with the limits to vehicle persistence. There are pockets of activity but it is pretty quiet in there now.

Hey Phil,

I've been taking a break from the game, but when I do play I am desperately looking for an SVD. I'll look around tonight and see if I have a winchester, some rounds, or a Longhorn. Would love an SVD.

I am in-game now. Going to toss my SVD and my AUG. Both have two mags each and lots of ammo.

Anyone interested?

TastforBrains......this means you!

I would hate to just trust that persistence will keep these babies warm for whom ever wants them so that's why I am trying to hold on to them until I can swap with someone.

Just found a Longhorn....so just need a model 70 or CZ and some rounds!

If you need a place to store some things, just let me know which region, and I'll make sure to drop off a barrel.  I'm not working this weekend, so I can drop you a barrel or tent anywhere that would be convenient for you.  There are also a couple tents already laying about, that you could drop a couple things in.  Just PM me a general area...

Anyone want an SVD? I will be online in a couple hours (for a couple hours) just messing about around Stary. PM me and I'll give you a location.

Crap- sorry. Delayed and got into my room late. Didn't read this until now. I'll reach out to you in IM and see where we end up. My guy is close to severograd right now...

Final call for either an SVD or an AUG.

Going to get rid of at least one of them tonight. Going to be around Balota/Cherno for a couple hours.

Was

anyone on last night? I was, and would like to know if you guys (about 8 others at one point) had the same weather.

It was raining heavily inland from the coast for a good while, and then gave way to thick fog from Berezino all the way to the far West edge of the coast. Seemed like I could cut it with a knife, and it was immensely cool.

I have lived on the East Coast of Canada and remember when the fog would roll in like this and I had a ball running around Cherno for a good hour or so just popping Infected and making a ruckus. Hell, I even got lost in the city a few times because of the lack of visibility!

I do indeed hope to see more of this (really accurate) weather modelling in-game. It even seems like the sounds were heavily muted on the server, which maybe was just my perception, but none the less was pretty damn immersive.

Hey folks. Not sure if this will catch anyone's attention or not. Our pop is down and most of the Helpy Helpers have been in hibernation. We're going to be pulling the server down in about a week. Our billing date is October 15 so I expect we'll have it down on the 14th. We'll be posting server messages to that effect to give people plenty of time to pick up their camps. 

.60 got uber stale with terrible vehicle performance and reliability in terms of the spawning / sync and it was tough to stay motivated as the pop started to drop system wide. We'll likely pick it back up again as .61 comes to stable.

Okay I got rammy and had a few minutes so I went and updated the server messages. They hadn't been updated since .60 dropped lol. Anyway- I'll send gameservers our intentions and take it from there. Again, listing the 14th as the last day since it makes sense.

Bummer...

Can't say I blame you guys, though. It's been a lonely journey these last few months. I tried to be a regular just about the time the Pop hit the all-time low....

Look forward to having HH back up when you guys are up to it!

Sad news! But I do understand. 

I have been unable to play due to work/family etc. And then my PC crapped out. I have a new mobo and will get that in in a few weeks. 

My guess is I will start playing when the server gets back ;-) Hopefully before that though. With winter coming I will have more time available.

Thank you(@eno, @schwaBAM) for the server! And Thank you @emuthreat for letting me run with you and showing me some neat stuff!
