Being fairly stealthy I will more then likely be coming to you guys fully geared from the northern military installations when I join up. I will hoard and bring as much back as I can as this is not new to me. I may be rusty but I've been ambushed and come out on top before so the long walks are worth it. Mind you I didn't have wolf packs chasing me before lol.

5.45 is what i require as tribute if you wish not to be KOS'd by me

[Marsden 1st MRB]

If u KOS how can u know if has tribute? Your statement is self defeating.

[Warren 1st MRB]

Lol I try not to KoS but usually soon as they draw a gun I end them. That being said I'd take my chances with the wolves and woods 

[Samuels 1st MRB]

Lol Warren you are playing the way that Marsden and I were playing back in February. Setting up tents and living like mountain men in the woods on the Western side of the map 

[Warren 1st MRB]

Lol too lazy to tent. I generally follow the woods and if I need a break I'll find a house on the outskirts of the nearest town. First object I locate before any of this is my compass lol. I've been wanting to play the last few days but my little guy is sick as a dog and so am I lol. 

[Marsden 1st MRB]

Yeah we have now gotten to the point that the mountain man/spec-ops life doesn't appeal as much. We are now Simple Men. With a Simple Farm.

this is code for "We got robbed several times in  the span of about two weeks, Fuck that lets grow squash"

Translated more accurately:

 

We were playing on the number one ranked server in the world. Had full persistence with minimal wipes. Server owner; and I quote "Lost faith in the title and could no longer support it." and then proceeded to shut down the server, inspite of it being the number one server in the world. Now our new server has no Persistence, so fuck tents, let's grow squash.

[Sanborne]

:v but really he just means they were robbed

 

[Samuels 1st MRB]

Marsden may have taken to the farming life but I guess that makes me the guy who refuses to stay put on the homestead and sneaks out when noones watching to murder and pillage the countryside 

[Marsden 1st MRB]

O I still go loot around and have the next most Confirmed Kills next to you. If we get this set up right we will be able to loot the Gorka Checkpoint while the peppers grow. Will just need to leave one person behind to protect and disinfect. I believe once we have a few more people joining us we will be able to achieve much more in our chosen base. I'm honestly surprised we never tried something like this before.

[Samuels 1st MRB]

I think the way you just described that (at least the way I read that) would require 4 people. 2 to scout and 2 to maintain the homefront.  Either way, I'm totally ready to get back onto the server and get back to surviving

[Marsden 1st MRB]

yeah 4 or 5 would be ideal. Only one really needs to maintain the farm while scouts are away. Scouts just have to be back to help harvest

[Samuels 1st MRB]

I feel like with the gear i carry i have just become a permanent scout since i have no free slots

[Marsden 1st MRB]

Free slots will become irrelevant as long as we harvest correctly. One improvised courier bag per garden plot on the ground (Raw component rope, burlap sack) and we can empty the plots into the apartment fairly quickly.

 

the reason we need coverage is that the bag is in our hands the whole time. So having the group available to cover is imperative.

I feel my expertise is better served patrolling the perimeter. As far as guns go do you guys require 5.56 guns only or does it matter? I prefer the long range sniper rifles or sks personally.

[Samuels 1st MRB]

From when I was last on this was what I believe our armament was:

 

Me: .22 w/ hunting scope, AK74U (5.45), 1911 (.45apc)

Marsden: SKS w/ scope & Makerov,

 

I dont remember what Avila was armed with 

[Marsden 1st MRB]

I swapped our for a P1 instead of makarov

[Marsden 1st MRB]

Also as a heads up, Makarov takes .380, the P1 takes 9mm

[Armstrong 1st MRB]

May be interested in coming back in, though fair warning my work schedule shortens up my available time span unless its a statutory or rain day.

[Marsden 1st MRB]

Aaah damn I thought the only way to play this game was 10 hours at a time?

[Warren 1st MRB]

I'm in the same boat for time wise but a few times a week should be do able. Hard to play with an 11 month old baby lol

[Marsden 1st MRB]

I would imagine. Good news is that .62 is now available on Experimental Servers. I'm playing there for a time but intend to keep our home characters ready on stable version until the wipe comes.

[Warren 1st MRB]

Last night even though I wasn't geared as planned, was a pleasure . Got my first kill guarding the supplies. Anybody doing any later
