@Death this thing feels a little "extreme". It shoots and destroys your parked mini on Cargo... Already lost 1500 scrap to that thing just today (and a LOT of time...). Seems like it's a bit over the top, maybe it's just me. Nevermind. Solved it.

@Death FP will be retiring Hapis Island, but will it still be possible to use it? Could be nice for Elysium in February, before it's too "out of date". (if it's still usable even though they "retired" it. Not really sure what that means...) Would be nice cause if we didn't play PVP, we most likely never saw it. I heard so much about it, sad to hear I won't get to play it.

That interior looks so warm and christmassy P.S.: Damn! You guys got the grandma sandbags? That thing is over 100$ now

Merry Xmas to all, and to all a good night!

We're gonna need a lot of night time when we visit to do these builds justice... Can we arrange that, exceptionally, for Halloween tours?

Will that mean the end of the REC? Or any other public build where you can take from "free" boxes or fridges? a3's mazes wouldn't work anymore? I once built an escape room where players had to look for clues in some of the rooms. Could be hidden in a small furnace or box, etc. Would it be possible to do it just for furnaces, refineries, helis, stuff like that? It would be a shame to lose all that and the ability to pick up someone's items to help out. It's all good community stuff after all.

Wow, didn't realize some people played RustEZ like some sort of idle game on iPhone... P.S.: Some of you really gotta start using paragraphs and punctuation. Hard to get your point across (or even taken seriously) if people have a hard time reading you or lose track halfway and skip the rest.

1. Twig doesn't cause any more performance issues than other materials, Death destroyed that myth at the last "Town Hall". In fact, he pointed out that HQM is slightly worse than twig, wood, stone, etc. 2. It's simple really: MONEY = BIGGER BUILDS = MORE PERFORMANCE ISSUES. The more scrap you have, the more stuff you can buy (duh). When you have all the scrap you could ever need, that means you can buy all the resources/objects you want, build as big as you want, add all the X-Mas lights/Disco stuff you want, etc., etc. Rust is built to be a survival game, not a "Life of the Rich and Famous" game. It's not meant to have so many players with so many objects all over the place. So of course performance becomes an issue. 3. If it were up to me, we'd remove the purchase of HQM for scrap from Bandit as well. On US Pure we have performance issues too. I don't think we have a pickle farming issue (much), but getting rich by pumping HQM at quarry is definitely a thing. I'd say keep the quarries, fine, but remove (or nerf...) sale of HQM at Bandit, so the HQM quarry is used for building, not for getting rich. That would reduce the number of objects, and reduce build somewhat. I'm convinced we'd see a performance improvement.

You know, it's really a shame we can't place objects under water...We could have a WHALE of a time... @Northstarz are you gonna distribute diving kits for the tour?

Lord McGuffin GUFF's Resort S27 Best viewed at night, much like TaylorBradgelina's build I'm sure. (I may not be available during the tour. Light switches are behind the only door. You also have to turn on the boomboxes on both floors )

This would be nice, but idk on what it would fit... People still use rulers, right? ...

Salut LeChat! Bienvenue, amuse-toi bien!

Wasn't there a 4th place prize for annoying you @-Novak-? What did I win?

EVIIIIIL....

@Rosemary Mint I keep forgetting to ask, wtf is that thing anyways?? lol

Last call! Go check out the gallery before it's gone forever folks!

Oh and yes, I will be selling these as NFTs.

On US PURE, in P13, come check out my gallery featuring some of these prominent players (mostly from these days, but some from before) My only criteria : They need to have played a lot or "are" playing a lot; And I gotta have an idea of what to make without my brain exploding. Don't try and find any deep meaning into these, hehe. It's just what I came up with on the fly and very much depended on what I could find out there on the information super highway... It's like in the old days, when I use to make gamer sigs for people in forums

For "legal" purposes, let's assume I'm subscribed to all channels and streaming services... Here are shows you may have missed that are definitely worth your time : GP = Guilty pleasure type shows OG = Original, never really been done before SP = "Specialized", you may have to like the subject matter, maybe not AW = Award Winning (or should have) 1. The Wire (AW) It's an older HBO show, but if you've never seen it OMG I envy you... It's #2 on Rolling Stone's top 100 tv shows of all time, just before The Sopranos at #1 (I'll take The Wire instead tyvm). 2. Deadwood (AW) Unfortunately, Deadwood just stops after 3 seasons, because of financial issues (show was extremely costly) and differences between the show creator and HBO. That being said, if it weren't for that, Deadwood would be number 1 on my list. Totally worth it even without a satisfying ending (the movie didn't really do it for me). 3. The Venture Bros (OG, SP) Oh yeah, I'm putting them up here at number 3 next to award-winning dramas! This show deserved so mo much more recognition and so many more fans than it got, it's a crime really... I'm both sad and mad it's not getting a season 8. The pilot episode and 1st season are a bit rough animation and writing wise, but it keeps getting better and better and better, like fine wine created by two wacko geniuses. Get back to me once you've gotten to "Operation PROM"; wow, just wow. (available on Channel 4 in th UK and other platforms here and there) 4. 30 Rock (AW, OG) At some point shows started moving away from the classic sitcom format, and 30 rock was right there. Tina Fey wrote an amazingly smart and funny show, and if you don't like Alec Baldwin when he does comedy, you're dead inside! 5. The Newsroom (GP) What we wish our news were like. It's from Aaron Sorkin, so of course it's a bit "soap opera-ish", over the top , but man is it satisfying (that's why I put "GP"). Jeff Daniels just becomes the guy we wish we'd get our news from. Without him, the show just wouldn't work. 6. The IT Crowd (OG, SP) How have you never watched this show?!?! That's all I have to say about that. 7. GLOW (GP) I'm a 45yo "privileged" white male, so this show shouldn't be for me, right? Wrong. This show about the personal and professional lives of a group of women who performed in a 1980's wrestling show got me hooked instantly. Sure it has a couple of male characters that both have interesting arcs (played by Marc Maron and Chris Lowell), but it's mainly about the wrestlers and their personal and professional struggles. Alison Brie is great as the main character, Marc Maron plays himself basically, but it's still perfect casting, and Chris Lowell is great, but the revelation for me was Betty Gilpin who's kind of the main character as well. Her character feels real, every scene she's in makes you forget you're watching a show. It's a real shame the pandemic ended the show after 3 seasons. But like Deadwood, still worth it. 8. Community (OG) Fan of Dan Harmon's Rick and Morty? Well, before that he created Community! An incredible cast, so funny, over the top. I re-watched every episode during the pandemic and even discovered a 6th season I hadn't seen! (because it was on Yahoo! Screen...wtf??). Their motto, even within the show, was "7 seasons and a movie!". They didn't get there unfortunately, but what a ride. Fuck Friends on Netflix, watch this instead! 9. Billions (GP) I love me some Paul Giamatti . That is why (amongst other reasons) I did not catch The Amazing Spider-Man 2 and will never watch it (Him? As Rhino? WTF were they/he thinking??). It's a modern soap opera and it's about Wall Street and billionaires sure, but man does it hook you in. This past season hasn't been as good, with Damian Lewis needing to leave the show to spend more time with his family after his wife passed away, but they did a good job of adapting it under the circumstances. 10. Yellowstone (GP) It's like "Dallas" but for our era. Gritty, violent. Wow! Paramount+ actually has one good show?? I've been seeing Kevin Costner in so many movies since I was 10 (The Untouchables), and yet somehow in this show I forget it's him. Which is pretty incredible considering I've "known" him for 35 years... Guess being one of the creators and producers of the show can do that 11. Dark Side of the Ring (OG) I was never a wrestling fan, not really. But in my youth, at the height of the WWF's success, it was hard to escape. Here in Québec, we'd basically "adopted" André the Giant ("André le géant ferré" to us), even though he was from France not from QC. And we had legends like "Maddog" Vachon and "Les frères Rougeau". So add Hulk Hogan, The Ultimate Warrior, etc., and then the Heart family (Canadian legends), and yeah, those were high times for the WWE and I was very much aware of the whole thing. So when Vice started this series about what happened behind the scenes, for all these various wrestlers I knew about, I was definitely curious. It's a very revealing series that gives us an inside look into professional wrestling and about the troubling and sometimes tragic events many well-know wrestling stars had to go through. 12. What we do in the Shadows (OG) Did not think they could adapt the movie well, but they did, very well. Casting is key in a show like this, and they nailed it. If you enjoyed the movie, expect to enjoy the show as well. It's just a lot of fun with clueless vampires Shows that would be in the list but don't really need a mention : Succession The Office Seinfeld Rick and Morty Arcane Parks and Rec ENJOY!
