yeah that is what I'm talking about "hey man I am literally going out solo in the dark to farm more mats could you fix my hatchet while you're standing there making HUNDREDS of bullets?" Nope, I'm an rear end in a top hat because cykko claims he left 200 ingots laying around in the base that nobody. ever. saw. But he's bragging about a silencer and LASER SIGHT and telling me I'm a dick for asking him to spare a few metal to repair my axe while I go farm for the clan You do understand how close he is to respawning naked and dead over and over with no explanation, right? because I'm loving sick of being told how I'm his peon. coyo7e fucked around with this message at 03:31 on Dec 21, 2015 |

coyo7e posted:It seems dumb at first to build "in plain sight" however, at a certain point you'll be way more concerned about how loving many seconds it takes to get to the river without dying of dehydration - build a waterskin and put it on your hotbar and use it when you're knee-deep, to fill and roughly double the range you can go/do before becoming thirsty. You don't have to manually drink unless you've got more than one skin. Thanks for the info. How does tribe ownership work for houses if you want to disband your current tribe and join another? could i reclaim my house for the new clan? how does that work or am I poo poo out of luck?

coyo7e posted:yeah that is what I'm talking about "hey man I am literally going out solo in the dark to farm more mats could you fix my hatchet while you're standing there making HUNDREDS of bullets?" I think I've already smoothed this out in-game, but for posterity I'll answer here, as well: he gathered metal all day to make a gun and bullets. You rolled in while he was making them and asked him to use his personal metal to repair your hatchet, and he justifiably said no. Then you went out for metal, so you could repair your hatchet, and came back from the metal run with no metal and were upset that he didn't repair your hatchet while you were gone, despite the fact that he clearly told you he didn't have the spare metal. I can't back you up on this one. E: Also, I keep finding that you get into arguments over dumb poo poo, I solve the issue, and then I check the thread and you're posting about it way later, madder than ever and misremembering the entire situation. I think you should stop smoking so much while you play or something. E2: I guess maybe that post wasn't way later, and I just don't check the thread much, but still. PLEASE quit bringing the drama to the thread because it makes us both look like idiots and puts people off trying the game out.

If I join up with the goons can I expect more of this drama over voice chat? Am I correct that half of the drama in this thread is coming from a nongoon?

The drama is coming from the goon, the non-goon is just the instigator. Also, yes. Also, don't let that dissuade you please. E: Or more accuracy, the goon is finding drama in situations where non should exist, and voicing this to the non-goon, who then converts it into real drama.

SquirrelGrip posted:I'm on na official 65 where you at Sorry, way too late/early for me. Some dudes might still be on. We're around abouts 70/70 on the map. Spawn East 3, turn toward the green obelisk, and run along the beach until you reach a river delta. You'll pass by D2M, our friends, and just after you'll see us. Tribe name is DRS. Make sure to tell us who you are. Hope you weren't that dude we told to gently caress off when he asked to come into the base.

Yeah, as long as they can follow simple instructions like "put these items here, these other items here, and throw these other items away," "You can take this but not this" and "Don't use the dinosaurs without permission," they're free to join. PriorMarcus posted:So if you start building on one server with one character is that building and character tied to that server? The short answer is yes. The longer answer is that there is a system that lets you upload a character (but not his belongings or buildings) and then download him on another server, HOWEVER, this feature is turned off on all the official servers AFAIK, and definitely all the official PVP servers.

I'll get in tomorrow morning and test the waters before I invite my homeboys to join. They are pretty cool dudes but player imposed rules are something they may not be down with. I understand the tribe mentality and have goon rushed lots of games (some of them with coyote) so I don't have a problem not touching certain rocks or dinos but they may not be. Who knows?

Cera the triceratops is pretty low level but can collect a few hundred berries in a few minutes, feel free to take her out. Making narcos is super useful and gives 2.0 exp each, so bringing 4300 narcoberries back in a few minutes can really level you quickly, and we can never have enough narcotics and tranq arrows.

Server is going offline at... Some point. Server message said 2 hours, then a fee minutes later said 20 min, then immediately after that said 30. Anyway it looks like their patching the servers, which means probably a title update later today as well. Please keep in mind, goons, that this means you shouldn't go too far from base or take valuable stuff/pets out, because you may log out unexpectedly to patch the server and maybe at a separate time to patch the client.

Ankylos are faster and more worthwhile than stegos - use them to gather berries, thatch, flint, and metal. They take dilo kibble which is relatively easy to make and also used for the stone-gathering doedicurus. (armadilo)

So the server will read full - who knows if it is or not - just spam it for 5 minutes or so and you should get in. Playing with the group is fun. Learned a lot, killed some dinosaurs, praised the Dark Lord Satan.

I got tired of trying to get into the right server the other day and started playing solo on easy peasy babby settings. Learned how to do some of the basic stuff more quickly than the last time I stumbled around NA65, so maybe I'll try to join again on my long weekend off. I'll try not to steal all of the metal/dinos/feces from the stockpile.

what part of "I don't want to talk about politics" translates into, well, anything your buddy went off on? "If you won't answer then I know the answer and you should be punched in the face" is a pretty epic line of reasoning though, for aiming at me after I literally asked in a couple ways to not loving bring up poltiics. You say you will deal with it, tell your loving idiot jarhead friend to reign in his tongue and stop being an rear end. The guy with a literally locked private room in our tiny base, which is either full of explosives (which took hundreds of hides to craft) or he's full of poo poo and enjoys threatening people over global chat with "crates of explosives" several times a day while counseling the rest of us to never get into a fight with other clans.. your choice. he is entirely against allowing any other goons into the tribe though, which is cool since you know - he's the only person except you who can invite anybody? coyo7e fucked around with this message at 10:13 on Dec 22, 2015 |

He was the only one on this morning when I tried to get into the tribe. He said to wait for one of you guys to log on so he can verify that I am from the internet. He gave me some stuff to get started on even without letting me into goonfort. Seems like an okay guy for a disgusting nongoon. Edit: what a second he does NOT want goons to make enemies with other tribes? Has he never played with a goon tribe before?

It's empty 99% of the time, and, for the record, there is no stash of explosives AFAIK, he's just bluffing. We have one grenade in the admin room.

It's supremely annoying that you aren't guaranteed a place on a server after you've made progress on it. At this point it seems like you'll just made a ton of level 5 characters on different servers and have to never return to them.

Not sure how that'd work - most of the servers would wind up ghost towns if you guaranteed spaces for anyone who made a character on them, since everyone won't necessarily stick with the game.

Okay this is a  level tip for everybody, solo or in the tribe:When you're farming (or fighting!) at night, pull out a torch and do a long-press of LT, to toss it on the ground, where it will provide a helpful light source. If you've got two in your hot bar at low level, you can even drop one in a spot then walk around the perimeter with another light, safely picking berries and having a focal point to go back to without the muss of campfires. Also we need stone, so don't feel bad about bringing it and levaing it everywhere - break your axe on rocks instead of your pick, because we have thousands of flint... But need stone for gunpowder and all the ammo for your gun we will make you.
