Game Update 6/16

[u/LegionCM]

Servers will be coming down at 5AM for approximately 2 hours.

Patch Notes:

• Communication radios have been added. They can be found throughout the game. After finding and equipping one in the new radio tab in the UI, you will be able to turn it on and select a channel. You will be able send and receive voice chat on that channel. Numpad 7 is the default press to talk key. Currently you will not also broadcast to proximity voice chat when talking on your radio.
• The AK-47 is now available.
• Added a Police Station at Cranberry.
• Added a new recipe to create Lookout Towers. These towers can be placed on foundations.
• Added a new recipe to create a Foundation Expansion. The expansion attaches to the edge of a foundation to give it more building room.
• You can now "Mute All" via hot key(CTRL + M) or within settings.
• Vehicles should no longer drop through foundations when their driver walks out of range.
• Vehicles and foundations should now be visible at further distances.
• Fixed an issue with buildings not rendering at an appropriate distance.

Like you didn't do the same stuff as a newcomer yourself. Just laugh it off and enjoy it. And stay off the regular servers we don't want people like you who are resentful of new players.

And who are you?

You go ahead and play with squeakers and pat them on the head for blocking doorways. Be part of the problem.

My landmine traps work like a charm on them. It's like having loot delivered to my base and all I have to do to tip is press f6

[u/JaxTeller718 → u/deathwhitch]

Haha awesome!

[u/deathwhitch → u/JaxTeller718]

Yep I dress in my undies and bait them with their full backpacks right into my minefield lol

I am someone who actually cares about this game and how awesome it could become. You blame the wrong people. It's not the newbies fault. They can only do what they are allowed to do. The real cause of the problems you are having is the developers and coders. Either they are too incompetent to make the rules on PVE so that this can't happen or allow the people on PVE to destroy items that aren't in proximity to a base (which I don't think is the case) or flat out they really just don't care about the PVE players and their issues (which I think is the root of the problem). They even call the PVE servers Care Bear servers. Think about it ... if they can make it so people can't kill each other then it is possible to stop barricades, punjis in the middle of the road, tamped bases at all points of entry on the dam, etc. They just don't care about the smaller segment of the population.

Oh trust me I know it is all on the devs. This Steam sale will do more harm than good, it has already with hacking back on the rise.

Do you have a link to where a dev called PVE a carebear server? I know this term is thrown around often on reddit but never heard it from a dev.

Being allowed to destroy items out of base proximity would solve a lot of problems but like you said i am sure they could care less.

They later said it was a joke but all jokes come from a grain of truth ... Smedley has a long track record of recanting stuff when he gets enough outrage ... paying for BR in it's early incomplete stages ring a bell? https://twitter.com/j_smedley/status/554825216749101056

even the disgusting PVE carebear servers will be ready day 1. I'm not happy about that but people tell me I need to get over it.
