    Anyone looking to play?

    Hi VFX, Happy to try a duo's game with other outlanders. If your interested drop me your gamer tag via mail or here. Same applies to anyone else who uses this forum. I'm on most afternoons UK time.
  2. No problem Markie, Just let me know when you want to give it a go. Worked at ICI in Runcorn for a number of years. Don't know how old you are but in the good old days used to go to the Cherry Tree Friday night soul disco. Some good lads in Runcorn (especially them that didn't want to fight with you).

    What the why

    I fully support SCF and his comments. There are countless complaints from some re disconnects and losses. Keep the faith. I too am sure it will be resolved and some form of recompense will be delivered to those who have suffered financial loss.

    Additional Crown Gain Methods

    Hi SCF, I think you have a valid point. Dropping the price would tick off outlanders who had paid previously. Giving more for the crowns as you suggest might do the same, but not be so bad. Maybe a 'sale period' to test the principle.
  5. Hi Markiemark1869, Just outside Northwich. They can gift crates, so hopefully they have a record of your loses and can reimburse you through that system. Is you name your gamer tag, if so I'll send you a team request next time I'm in the game.

    Additional Crown Gain Methods

    Hi Gargantucon, The challenges seem to rotate, I had five days of loot challenges then 3 days of crown and crate challenges, I'm now on a mix of both which is better.

    Please explain

    Hi Rarest, Had a spell on the range yesterday to pick up a crate for a challenge. Took a G3, had my bayonet from an earlier encounter and forgot to remove it and no ammo. First strange occurrence :- started the G3 challenge, shoot all the signs. Clicked start but couldn't fire as the start box was still there! clicked on start again, and the challenge restated. I got the first sign, it fell off but there was still a sign! Hit it again and it fell off again, now no sign. I think I shot 3 more which had the same effect and the game told me I had achieved the challenge with signs still on the range! Clearly the 2nd click on start challenge had overlayed the 2nd challenge onto the first. When I had hit enough signs it must have considered that I had finished the challenge. 2nd strange occurrence :- left the range and the G3 and my bayonet had gone! . So yes, there is are a few bugs with the range that I hadn't come across before. I apologise for ever having doubted you.
  8. I'm supportive of new maps, and yes if they were bigger, increase player count to 16/24, but I think the current headcount for each map is fine. If you really wanted to increase PvP action, introduce a map with 1 exit!
  9. Markiemark, I'd like to think so. I've been defending this game for a long time now, and whilst I admit progress on resolving issues us slow, I really hope someone somewhere in Bohemia is keeping an eye on this forum. I outlined in another post how far down the pecking order Vigor was in relation to the user bases of their other titles, but it would be good to see some mention of what's being worked on and when we can expect a fix to be in place. Some other titles have a ticketing system to log and record issues, but maybe Vigor is not at the right stage of development for such a thing. Keep the faith.

    Stop justifying Team Kills

    Hi Ikethevike, Just like everyone else on the forum, you are entitled to your opinion. . I like many on here, enjoy the game and accept that it's number of areas for improvement will eventually be resolved. I very rarely play team, so have not experienced the backstabbing that you have. It would be very difficult to make a game fully mirror real life and for me a little artistic licence is fine. After all, what enjoyment could you attach to a game that deleted itself and stopped you reinstalling it once you were killed! After all, in real life dead is dead! Apologies for appearing factitious, but give a little slack eh.

    Marked as a threat

    Interesting experience. I had a challenge that I didn't think would be easy to achieve. Get marked as a threat. I was making my way to the drop, which I had marked on my map. Before I got into the vicinity some outlander' killed someone at the drop site, was marked as threat and took off to the nearest exit. I couldn't intercept him so went to the drop location. There was the body and crate of the killed outlander'. I looted what was left and exited the map. When I got back and entered the challenge section it told me I had achieved my target of being marked as a threat! Clearly looting the body had given me the same status as the outlander' who killed him! Why I don't know. Anyone else had similar experiences?

    Food reward system

    Hi SCF, The main comment mentions a regular reset to 0. This would level the playing field each time it happened. Also, I do like the proposed reward system.

    Forced Spectate

    I feel pretty much the same. A choice would be good. I also had a strange experience re getting killed in one encounter. I was hit a number of times but managed to evade the outlander' who shot me. On my way to the exit I died from fall damage. It then reported that I was killed by the outlander' who shot me initially! And I began to spectate him. If we're going to introduce statistics, which will no doubt include kills, then that's a kill to a guy who didn't actually kill me!

    Also the VZ 58 is a better and more effective single shot rifle in my opinion.

    how do you get weapon plans

    Check the crates section when you access the workbench by pressing RB several times. You will see the list of available crates. For each one you scroll down to you will see the contents (3 of which you get each time you return with the crate). Cursor across to to the contents and each one has a discription. The pictures of a weapon with a small piece of paper at the bottom of the icon are plans. So if you have 9 items outstanding (not ticked off), say for a common crate you have a 1 in 3 chance of getting it in your next crate. Once you have collected all the items for a specific crate, the list renews and your likely to see a new weapon plan appear. The above applies to all crates.

    Make upgrading your shelter worth it.

    Valid comment. It's been mentioned in some really creative other threads, but in my opinion, food production and the subsequent donation system should result in rewards (crowns/crates/weapons etc) when certain milestones are reached.

    Try the M3 on single.

    Crown loss

    I don't believe the devs are trying to avoid the issue. I'm certain they can see who is suffering lost crowns/weapons/ammo from disconnect issues, and I would trust them to firstly resolve the problem, and secondly to offer some form of recompense, by means of challenge rewards or gift crates. . You up for a team game I I3Iue I sometime? . Keep the faith.

    Losing bullets every time

    I always go to the range with just the weapon I'm testing, so not noticed that issue. Will give it a go and report back.
  20. It's not a bug. Each weapon requires a certain level of crafting table to be able to build it. I have a plan for the ADR, but it requires crafting table level 13. Mine is currently 11. Get collecting loot and upgrade.
  21. Noticed this myself. Now before I craft anything with materials, I craft something from parts to check the weapon gets added.

    Sad

    Shame you didn't give it more time. Put your weapon on single and give it another chance. I'm guessing you were on auto and most bullets missed.

    Lost crowns/guns/

    Are you connected wireless or ethernet. I had my only disconnect for weeks using my spare Xbox one, which is connected wirelessly. My main Xbox one X console is ethernet.

    Losing bullets every time

    Is your inventory full when you leave. This has been an issue for a while now. If you leave with a full inventory, you will lose the ammo in your weapon, as there are no spare slots to deposit the ammo into your Inventory.
  25. To all outlanders who take the time to read this missive. Whilst we love our game, and we genuinely want the problems resolved, we need to understand where we are in the pecking order within the Bohemia empire. I've done some looking around the Bohemia forums and below is some startling data. Number of posts for Bohemia Projects :- Arma 3 - In excess of 1000000 posts Arma 2 - in excess of 848000 posts Day Z - in excess of 500000 posts Ylands - in excess of 20000 posts Vigor - 2871 posts...... At the time of writing this thread. I know the other games have been around longer, but look at the numbers! . I understand the issues need resolving, particularly where real money is being lost by outlanders. This can be fixed with gift crates, and I'm sure this is being considered. But, just looking at the user numbers for other projects, based on the forum posts, we have to be realistic about where we are in the scheme of things. The message from me is be patient. As the user base grows the game will enjoy more dedicated support from within Bohemia.
