Death

@StrangeDynasty completed

@curveball4 We did away with monument NPCs for the time being because we wanted zombies to rule the land. We do have several types of zombies but to preserve the look and feel we've opted out of using physical weapons. I can't recall ever playing a zombie game where they had weapons We also have no interests in changing gather rates and will most likely never go the terminus route as it would nullify all the hard work invested into the farming mechanics of the game. PS: No, I've never played on a zombie server. I also don't use other servers as inspiration because that'd essentially be copying someone else. @GreenSnapper That's a lot to process so I'll go over a few keys. 1) Explosive zombies sound interesting. 2) Zombie pirates, tribesman and patrol officers is not the vibe we're going for here. 3) Blood moon is already in the works, instead, hordes will spawn around players every night. Unclear when this will be ready.

We're glad to have you Matt!

@Khamuel You can access your recycler using /rec

@Kaylisk With the locked cupboards now I can surely tone it down a tad. @Trifeel 1) Agreed and I hope this helps promote player economy more. 2) The portable recycler will be an option. You don't have to use it if you don't want to. 3) I will not be capping home uses. If you have the caps to spend more power to you. 4) It's too OP and will be nerfed @Knave of Hearts Sadly we're limited to what's currently available and the majority of that is not possible without disgusting workarounds and generic implementations.

@Knave of Hearts The goal of this server is to do something different, with that being said removing all paid services would not be a smart move otherwise we'd have no funding for the future. Scourge will be very similar to what Survival is now, just lighter in the sense of fewer plugins. I still plan to make chores less tedious and balance the aspect of danger with functionality so you can take a break from jumping out of your seat and have some fun.

@Vonblood I don't see VIP perks changing that @Aurora There needs to be cushion otherwise people will just rage quit left and right. @frenchy The thing with that is, everything is locked unless you're in their party so that just takes it out of the question.

@Knave of Hearts Only way to alter run speed for players is to slate metabolism stats which may not be ideal. I'll consider everything regardless and see what I can do! @Kaylisk Already working on a system to increase hordes at night

Pure migration successful! You'll need to search for the server for it to show up again or quick connect here: steam://connect/play.rustez.com:28015

Pure migration is now being prepped for a smooth transition tonight at 12:00 am EST

You may already have noticed but we had to wipe signs to speed up the migration process, otherwise, it would have taken over 8 hours to transfer everything over. RIP family photos

Survival migration successful! You'll need to search for the server for it to show up again or quick connect here: steam://connect/play.rustez.com:28014

Casual migration has been successful! You'll need to search for the server for it to show up again or quick connect here: steam://connect/play.rustez.com:28012

Server migrations have been pushed back due to recent power outages preventing any effort to prepare. Time of maintenance for each server has been pushed back another day.

Due to the fact that some technical issues surrounding network configuration has yet to be fixed for some time, we'll be migrating over to a new IP to once again maintain a stable network cluster. This means all EZ servers will be changing IPs as well as migrating to a new US EAST data center which is roughly only 30 miles away from where we are now. You shouldn't notice any significant ping loss. Casual (Completed) July 22nd 12:00 AM EST Survival (Completed) July 23rd 12:00 AM EST Pure (Completed) July 24th 12:00 AM EST Once we change IPs our servers will drop from your favorites and history tab. Simply search RustEZ under Community or Modded tab to find our servers again. If you need assistance we'll be more than happy to help.

Rewards distributed, congrats!

@Vonblood So long as it's not massive we can copy and paste it

@Finn For issues with the store please use https://www.rustez.com/help

The helicopter will target you anywhere as long as it can see you. If it attacked you inside your base it either had you aggroed from before you entered, or you were at one point standing in front of a window and it saw you. The helicopter has not been changed in over a year, he's up to his same old antics.

@✪chibi Please be sure to choose the correct server in the future to avoid confusion.

@ChocolateCremePie I would if I could, that'll take too many buckets of water.
