Re: Swamp is corrupted Well that would explain it, since I tried a bit later and it was fine, however I don't think I like paying on such a big map, since trying to actually find any zombies was nearly impossible! basically I spent literally over an hour wandering around until I finally found a spare weapon to donate for reputation to get aquest, I then tried five different buildings before finally entering the K mart to find likely at least about half of the players andan equal number of zombies, really I thought it was supposed to be hoards of zombies prowling the streets and the survivers holed up in buildings not the other way around .I then got basically mobbed to death, so for all that time I spent I had a grand total of 4 killsand three of those were in the K mart. Methinks I'll try later when the map is less conjested. Perhaps some method of evening out zo mbie distribution might be nice though, since just wandering around the map with nothing to do wasn't too interesting. Btw, what is hard core?

Re: [Audiogames-reflector] Swamp is corrupted
Re: Swamp is corrupted Dark, the server should have explained the Kai mart event with the welcome message. If it isn't displaying the welcome message, please let me know and I'll look into why it isn't.Unfortunately this event is primarily geared for the experienced Swamp players who already know what is going on, and are capable of facing this challenge.

Re: [Audiogames-reflector] Swamp is corrupted
Re: Swamp is corrupted Hard core mode was designed for those few players who find that swamp just isn't challenging enough in it's default mode. To access hard core, you must have reached level 80 in the standard mode, this insures that you have a solid ability to play the game.Once you enter hard core mode, the reputation system is completely removed. You cannot donate or buy items anymore. Reputation is replaced with food. What food is is basically your ability to move. It's counted in minutes, and you find food by finding loot on the map (which, by the way, is reduced to 1/10 of what it would be). Forts are designed for clans in hard core. They provide a place where players can store food, heal up, and also store some items.URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=144533#p144533 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com http://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

Re: Swamp is corrupted It does tend to lag a little more, with all the zombies, players and items crammed into such a tiny space.Of course, we wouldn't have such an issue if people didn't think it would somehow benefit them to hack the server and behave like complete idiots, but such things seem like a part of the scenery when it comes to online games.

Re: Swamp is corrupted Actually it'd be nice to have a formal swamp campaignes page, as I said in the topic about scape skate this is the problem of people just coming onto a forum and hading around random dropbox links, it makes stuff dam hard to find if you weren't in that one group of people who happened to pick it up initially, and even more so for anyone on this forum. Perhaps someone with server space could setup a page for uploading and downloading campaigns, or maybe Aprone could host the files on the swamp site, though I'd imagine he has better things to do than look through a hole bunch of campaign files, albeit I do always think it helps when games with user created content have some function from the developer to aide in finding that content.URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=144616#p144616 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com http://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

Re: [Audiogames-reflector] Swamp is corrupted
Re: Swamp is corrupted I love the campaign page idea Dark, and I certainly have the web space to hold them. As CAE mentioned, time is the big problem, and I just don't have enough of it. CAE, If you do end up working on something like this, I could toss you the FTP information to upload the campaigns to my web space. That would give a permanent place for the campaigns.The Wiki has actually been dead ever since spammers forced me to lock it down. Online wikis get hit with Spam bots every day, but one sentence of the spam referenced something specific that a banned Swamp player had said, so I'm pretty convinced that it was intentional. So that was a shame, because I was going to have to switch things over to approve all wiki changes, and that turns it into a more time consuming project on my part. My wife volunteered to be in charge of reading over all changes to approve or deny them, but I never got around to setting up the wiki with those settings.&nb sp; So these days it just sits there.

Re: [Audiogames-reflector] Swamp is corrupted
Re: Swamp is corrupted Well a campaigns page would be great however it is derived. While I understand the point of the wiki not working, in fairness we don't really need a full wiki since what is there is there. Perhaps someone could help with documentation, heck, you've already got a pretty good weapons guide, optionally taking the information from the wiki about zombies, controls etc, heck this worked well enough for castaways. perhaps if you bang a message on the server and offer some sort of reward to anyone who wants to help with this it'd result in something a little more comprehensive. in general it's the various less usual features of the game that could do with some explaining, such as hardcore as I mentioned above, and of course zombi types, missions, status effects etc, and even though writing code is a specialist form, writing pros isn't (heck if i can do it anyone can!), .URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=144672#p144672 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com http://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

Re: [Audiogames-reflector] Swamp is corrupted
Re: Swamp is corrupted Well michael if you mean the online game, as I said earlier in this topic, it's a little tough at the moment. since the game is running a really hard higher level event in the kay mart which it's hard for players with less experience to survive, so I don't think myself your trouble is entirely your fault. In general when the game is running properly, best tactics are to try and take on few zombies as possible, and also to try and be quiet since the faster you move and the louder the more zombies will chase you which might not be good if you don't have the weapons. Myself, back on the original server I became quite a good sniper, sneaking up to zombies, taking out a couple quickly then going and hiding until the heat was off. Of course, entering buildings might be different matters since there you are in close quarters, but you'll have to do that for quests. In The main thing however is ju st plane practice. Learn how to move and shoot fluidly, how to make minute changes in your movements with the mouse, to use sidesteps and back away, and to not get cornered by huge gangs of zombies. Strafing, or circling are also good tactics to learn as well, as is backing up while your shooting rather than just standing still, indeed unless your standing still and hiding specifically or lining up that perfect sniper position, standing still is bad. I'm sure more advanced swamp players than me could give other thoughts, but especially since the game has changed quite a lot with status effects, more skills and weapons and such, but that would be my tips. Oh and btw, accept that your going to die, because you are, quite a lot! All you can do is grit your teeth and go out again, since there are always more zombies to kill, and at least you still have all that experience you've earned even if you& #039;ve just lost that awsome gun you found.URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=144801#p144801 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com http://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

Re: [Audiogames-reflector] Swamp is corrupted
Re: Swamp is corrupted You only lose your items (including weapons and armor); levels, points, etc all remain (the reputation system is partly to help people rebuild their inventory after death, though once you get the hang of missions reputation can inflate enormously).I was actually kinda surprised when I was playing Kai day and got cornered in the Kai Mart even though I'd hardly moved from a straight path from the entrance. The time it took to figure out which way I'd drifted and get back outside was mostly always long enough for zombies to eat me. But to be fair, there were 150 zombies in there at the time.For navigating in buildings, you could try trailing the walls, using the radars, or even the building helper (that seems to confuse most people more than help, but I find it really nice if I ever lose track of which way is the exit. Which usually just means getting lost in a big area like the Sewers or map3's Safe zone).URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=145045#p145045 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com http://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector
