Not sure why folks aren't playing this right now... surely it can't be due to our defeat the other day on a high stress test server?
I don't know. What I do know is I joined a server today that said active admin and has a good ping because it's in Seattle and it's a 50 player max. server.
I immediately met someone (SeeFourYourSelf) who was friendly and he immediately gave me many blueprints and showed me where he lives.
He helped me out quite a bit and I noticed there was a structure decomposing with one steel door internally on the second floor of it. I recognized that it had everything I immediately required... a furnace, workbench, fireplace and some storage. It merely lacked security. I built walls, stairs, some ceiling chunks and what not, sealed up access to the previous owners steel door 1x1 room (now sans sleeping bag) and I'm off.
I work closely with SeeFour to get a lay of the land...
By the end of the night tonight, I've already made allies with a neighbor after being killed a couple of times by him, raided two other forts, been in gunfights, and have learned to craft so many things, it's crazy. And I still don't know how to craft leather and kevlar armor. I have all the guns already, though, including add-ons.
Oh, also... about the raiding. I'm now a slum lord. I have access to five secure buildings in my vicinity.
Player interaction is infrequent, but harrowing at times. I've had a very good time on this one today. I think we should give it a go. We already have an ally/neighbor, and there are four buildings that spawn loot right in front of our doors... (rad free!)

I've been planning to get on. I was off taking part in an elder scrolls beta test which is done now. I saw master on it a few days ago.

This definitely could be a fun server. Seems we have a bit of a war brewing between 5 or 6 thugs and a community that has set up in french valley. We are helping the french valley town right now since they don't shoot at us every time we approach. We have set up just across the ridge from them right now and can get back and forth to french valley quickly.
As far as building Snap, I follow the same theory as you. The first defense is not to be seen. If we want to build secondary towers for forward defense that is fine with me.

I was on there the other day for a little bit. Just watching the chat interaction it seemed fairly positive, other than a warning about one player on that would KOS. Others offered to help out the other new guy. I didn't chime in, I'm not that trusting yet. LOL
It occurred to me that, for now, not putting down a sleeping bag in a shed is the way to go. If you can be killed in your sleep if you have a bag down, then you might as well load up any valuables, including any sleeping bag you have down, and log off. Doing that the night of the raid might have saved a good bit of the inventory. On other servers I've also taken to storing plywood rather than wood. Saves a whole lot of space. I do keep metal for doors and bars, but most goes to LQM for when metal structures are possible.

More and more I like the idea of no sleepers. Mack reset his server again, so our awesome base on that server is now gone. He dropped Oxide and went vanilla again so game updates wouldn't screw everything up every time there's a release.

I was wondering if it might have been them. There needs to be some kind of evidence system to help you put the clues together. That way if you care to find out you can.
So on the old base where did they break in? How much C4 do you think they needed to use?

Apparently 4 more guys got banned last night by the admins. I'm trying to figure out who and why.

I think we are losing ground quickly. With no air drops anywhere near us and probably no way to secure one if it is, I am concerned we are way behind on the power curve.
And who is this BAT clan? How many attacked?

Oh, I think we're doing ok for ourselves. I can make any weapon now, and all accessories. I just need to research kevlar vest and helmet and we can make full kevlar suits. And then come explosives. I don't really care much about airdrops. They have random stuff in them, too. And with 80 on the server, it's first come, first shot. Dunno who BAT is but I saw at least 3 of them running around his place. Quite the shootout(s) going on there.

Seems to be holding up well. Got on last night, and the wall to the three crate room was missing, so I patched that up with a solid wall (no more window.) The building to the east of us is decomposing quickly. The tower in french valley is also decomposing rapidly. Was talking to a guy down the hill... 'sir something the lostly' or whatever his name is... we were having a friendly chat and all of a sudden he gets shot from long distance right in front of me. It was a real quick 'See ya dude!' from each other and we scampered off to our respective retreats. Mostly just collecting wood to help maintain the spike walls around the compound. Doing chores. Had a nice long chat with smiley last night via steam. I had asked in the game if anyone had any research kits they were willing to trade something for. Later, I checked my inventory and saw that there was a research kit in there. I asked smiley if he did that and he said he did. I thanked him for that but asked him not to do that anymore, as I want to advance within the rules of the game world... He understood. I still used the kit to research kevlar vests though. I can make all kevlar except helmets now.

They must be, I reckon. I like keeping those crates in there empty. First target to get to has nothing in it. When are you getting on? We had six guys at least playing this before and after a week they're all gone. Sad.

So cheesecake was banned and og-rofl left and was then banned. I never saw enough personally to know if they were cheating or not but I can't say I'm sorry to see them go.

Good to hear Cheese was banned, I guess someone obtained some proof.
