  1. Now, if you use COM/DCOM, they use the Registry I believe. You can then have multiple services on a beefy severs do specific game functions, that MIGHT take a load off many players computers. Say having a squad of NPC bandits react to the player in an intelligent fashion . Using DCOM, you get the server that provides that NPC service, controlling the NPCs as if they were other players in a MP server. I never liked COM/DCOM so I might of off track here. Edit: Right, my point! So, maybe TFP are exploring the Registry for future use in some MMO 7D2D? Or making it a tad harder to pirate the game?
  2. Wow, where'd you get your "Information" is interesting, but wrong, at least with ammo in FO4. No weight.
  3. I liked the Fallout 3-4 weight system, it didn't count ammo because it would be a hit on performance. Simple and it made sense for a shooter. The current system for 7D2D is clunky as a shooter but its a builder too so slots could hold infinite weight. As 7D2D is a survival game too, the player needs to make survival choices and choosing what items to bring back to base is a part of survival. SO, its the best choice for the game if survival/building is the focus over being a shooter.
  4. In defense of trader Rekt's "bad" attitude: 1) Imagine you're alone, in a hot stinky trailer all day. How do I know its stinky? People sell you zombie encrusted sledge hammers all day, (oh sorry, do you clean the stuff you sell him? That's right, do the math). 2) Half your work stations are broken and Joel comes over each day asking if they're fixed. Every... Dang... Day. 3) Finally, you used to be a somebody. Called you "Master of the Apocalypse" they did. Now all your friends are dead and these... punk kids... you want to shot them. Not to kill them, but to toughen those cry babies up, quick and in a hurry before they're dead too! Trader Rekt, your an unsung hero! God bless you man.
  5. A good way to get hits is to have your sledge at a corner. So if you can picture a hallway as an "L" and the zombies come in from the top, then your turret is at the corner facing up, in an alcove. I did that and it can be pretty funny! Its not 100% effective but it can sometimes beat them like eggs. It's not THE most effective use of them of course, but it is fun to watch!
  6. You can't talk about the old Hub city high jinks, LBD high jinks or any other things too fun for the vanilla lovers of the world. So how the Day 3-5 "Kill order" squad of a zombie bear and 3-6 zombie dogs is still in there, I have no clue. However, with people complaining after deliberately going into danger zones and then complaining that they are... dangerous, is odd. The question I have is, do they go there AGAIN, with the same equipment, hoping things will be completely different? Once you KNOW that they are danger zones, a sane person will go in: 1) Better equipped. or 2) Expecting a real fight for their characters life will soon start.
  7. 7D2D is like life. The following can be anyone's life in game or RL. For most people, you slowly become more capable and the challenges slowly increase (sometimes not so slowly!) Over time, you encounter various crises, some larger than others. If your reading this, you're doing fine! Eventually, if your played the game well, you can rest and enjoy the remaining days!
  8. IDK The first 7-14 days is keeping enough food to keep going and finding a weapon that might influence my character development. Then the day 21 BM horde is (for my usual GS at that time) the first real test of my base idea. Then after that, its like an arms race between myself and the zombies. Normal settings (and no mods) are not a real struggle but it's leisure fun. Mods add a universe of amazing fun! I will not push one over another, but I suggest you eventually try them all!
  9. You will know the answer when you read their favorite book: "How to serve Human". I think honey and artichokes are in the book.
  10. "The game is what you make of it." A book of wisdom only needs this one sentence. It applies to everything.
  11. Don't worry Roland I know you're not Trader Rekt... You're the one who says "That's right, do the math". Changed your name and moved to a cold region so Guppy won't stand outside your window... looking. Probably looking in Trader Rekt's window making him... annoyed. I would like to apologize for stealing stuff from your safe and in the cellar an anything else I could get my hands on. Sorry. But thanks too!
  12. I'm soft on heavy armor. Playing dead-is-dead you want to avoid being harshly punished for a mistake. We all make mistakes and as the game progresses, a mistake can get bad.
  13. We shall see. TBH, I would prefer a boring anti-climatic release of the information than something that destabilizes countries. After 2020, I'm hoping 2021 is on the boring side.
  14. Thanks for the ad blocker, i might go back to Firefox for a more relaxing viewing. With over 50 years of keeping everything hidden and not willing to release what they knew until forced... That says some things might be unsettling or even a bit scary. Ether way, I'd rather know the truth no matter what it is.
  15. Nope. All three were tracking "it" when all three suddenly lost radar contact with it.
  16. I'd pay them $100 bucks if they did that! Another $100 for curing cancer, global warming and Youtube Ad spam!
  17. Do optical illusion's jam radars from two fighters and an aircraft carrier's radar? That's some illusion there!
  18. Yeah, I'm glad TFP aren't out to destroy believability completely. Anyone can squeeze a trigger so anyone with a finger can use a M60, maybe not shoot well of course. Things get "odd" when anyone can repair anything no matter their stats. But its not a game breaker for me.
  19. They both could end up being really big news! The Cicada thing was a joke as I actually like the sounds they make. With the UFO's, the leaked video of two Navy pilots chasing the "Tic Tac" UFO had an item that most don't know: It broke the sound barrier but didn't make a sonic boom, not even a tiny one! No one knows how that was possible! This points to technologies where the new CERN discovery might just be the tip of the iceberg.
  20. Well if I complain about A20 you can take my copy back. You don't get deals like this often so you better act quickly!
  21. In the big scheme of things, I'm sure most people don't care THAT much about a nuance of what another person typed. I'm also pretty sure that most people do know how others react to comments here, that newer people might construe as controversial. (If they didn't know the person). But newer people that read the posts for a few months will most likely know who says what. As to myself, I say things I think might be funny and the last few comment are vain attempts to get TFP to send me a copy of A20. I didn't get a copy... Of course I would say that even if I did...
  22. I'm sure you all know that the Pentagon has been forced to release ALL of the inexplainable "UFO" sightings and encounters to the US congress on June 25 2021. It has enough "WTF"s that it should cause congress to think twice about releasing all the documents to the public, if any. But which one will not want to be first to be in the limelight? I mean, in June you will have billions of those Cicada bugs singing their love songs at 100 DB, then congress dumps all the freaky things that the government hid for over 50 years... Trouble right there. Then if THAT weren't bad enough, the people at CERN have broken the Standard Model of all science! I mean release A20 what you got now... at least to me... They say they will replace the detector... next year... The detector that works perfectly with everything else but not this one thing... The B-meson. They are waiting to stop @%$#ing themselves and come up with a story on why reality as we know it, is all a bunch of poo... So A20 now. Forget optimizing A19 send A20 to me "as is", I won't complain...
  23. I'm sure the sole cause of this "Optimize A19 first or you are all terrible people" was the person in question had yet to get their "Magic Money" from the US government! It's obvious! Now, if he was from another country then, lets face it, you guys don't really exist in most American eyes. You call "Football" some stupid footsy game for god sake! Pick up that damn ball and smash someone it the face! Then it'd be a real game! Hope this helped!
  24. Comedic relief? I'd say about half the emoji are that way in some degree and subsequently could be taken as toxic, depending on how sensitive the person is. I still remember a marine said to a bunch of people who were sweating the load: "People, people, no one is shooting at us". Which is similar to a line in a fictional WW1 book (Forgot the author): "Don't shoot! There are people here." I remember the line because it was so sane it was funny and at the same time a sad testimony to the state of our world.
