The cooking sounds interesting, and the new areas, and that bug I submitted about turning into mutant got in, might have cool maps or some shit. But you want to know what would be even cooler? If all these dungeons gave us t4.
Thanks for adding in new stuff Coro, (please add in t4 i will marry you)

[cthulchu]

wow! a lot of changes! Gonna try them soon! Thanks for keeping up the good work, folks!

Good job!

Unfortunately the server started crashing after the update, so I had to revert it to the pre-update state.

Because of rollback I've enabled Double XP for some time.

[Parabellum]

Tbh. I lost a small fortune due to it lol (300k+ and dope af cattle prod) and 70k xp, but if I can regain the 70k xp in the same time and get 70k bonus I dont mind it at all.
If it applies to crafting on top of it even better..

However, I would like to state (since its pre-update state again now, it doesnt matter whetever public or PM I guess) that some people reported, that you could get the Mutant-Skin from quest and its bonuses and THAN go to a barber and transform yourself back into a human, i.e. remove the "No-sprint" penality from it and have all the advantages, i.e. exploitable.

You should look into that before reapplying the patch I guess. Not sure if it was trolling or facts tho, as I havent tried it out myself.

how do i cook meat

[Mad Matt]

how do i cook meat

You can not cook meat, cause update was cancelled 

[Parabellum]

Hey this is OT af. but why does it say "Easy Pete guest", did he get banned ?
I wonder since I got a PM from him as guest.

And FML, I missed 90% of the 2x event cuz having a life. I had too choose between meeting former fren and no lifing. Sadly fml, I choose the droogz. KEK

[OrangeMouse]

Greetings! Could anyone help me with getting mutant appearance? What exactly should i do for this?

[Mad Matt]

You should wait for update.

[cthulchu]

guys, can we at least commit the quests rather sooner? I bet it's the mutie thing that crashes the server. Many of us don't care about the mutie. Some really just want to try those quests.

[Mad Matt]

Yeah,  quests were great.

[Parabellum]

You lifin' behind the moon or sumin' ?
It was taken off/rerolled again, due to stability issues.

@Kilgore, could we please get something fancy ? Like a 2x xp weekends spree, or some GM events ? Like.. idk.. increased drop rates ? Or something, no idea.
The game is sorta abandoned currently, it's aweful and leveling is simply no fun at all with the current concept (not being in a team/group = the way to go.. *sigh*), so that makes sense atleast.
And an update.. well, I won't beg for something like that, when theres obviously techincal issues that need time/manpower to fix.

Also, I am running out of drama fuel, so things will freeze even more and even less going on ingame, but maybe some people like silence/no heat, tho, I know people love to grab their popcorn every once in awhile and enjoy a show, atleast I do.
I mean.. a month or so ago, there been daily 5-6 trolls on my ass in hub and I was sippin' coffee from my italian tragissimo coffee machine 2000, nowadays theres just silence and nothingness, it's heart breaking, even those who stayed all this time seem to be packing up their bags and tents to move on.

[Kilgore]

I will attempt to update the game again tonight or tomorrow. Some fixes were made and few additional changes as well.

I don't know if the server doesn't start crashing again - then I'll have to do rollback to pre-update state again. If not, then we can move on and work on another update.

Btw right now the test server is launched on same IP and port 2240. If you want to help us and to check out new stuff, you can connect to it and play for a while. Your characters, bases, cars etc. were imported, there is altruist and some T4 stuff in Hub as well. Of course the test server will be wiped when no longer useful.

Cheers.
