POI that was converted into a huge bunker, 4 players could almost defend against a full server with this bunker and I wasn't even finished, nor were traps introduced yet. But this is how many of us like to build, I can't do this with a single claim block.

I don't mind the one LCB rule .....

.... so long as Server Admins can adjust this easily.

[Without going into the Modded Server category.]

..... that is all.

Agreed, it should be easily moddable, but modding it ought to move the server into modded category, otherwise the modded category becomes rather misleading.

I don't even know why the retarded mechanic of requiring a magic block be placed in order to move a workbench was ever introduced...

Gate the items, not the bench... Or hell if you DO gate the bench, require intelligence, or books, or specific training (quest reward) to use it...

But moving it requires magic? FFS.

Yeah.. i mean I kinda like it and don't. I kinda like the "oh I found a workbench/chem station early, but Ialready made the starter... I will make trips. And I feel that's annoying I cant pick it up. But if you built it and placed it I mean.. come on lol.

It was a very defensible bunker. Thats just the outside defense perimeter, the inside was jarringly tough to break through as well, with loot spread out and seperated behind several different hidden areas in the base and all behind their own doors, even my forges/campfires and work benches were all protected by vault doors.

people went crazy trying to figure out how to raid that thing, most didn't even bother. lol

I had actually planned to create several interconnected Towers around the inside wall outside bunker perimeter for dealing with anything over the wall and inside the base, which would be connected through the heart of the base ONLY the was no way to get into them from the towers themselves and they would all have a transit pipeline.

(9 exactly and connect them with that building mesh block since it has the best SI off of itself)

I never got around too it though.

Edit. Metal Trussing was the block.

@OnlyMeiya, wowsa! That's really cool! Really like the 45d Ramp openings, though I doubt you could throw a Molotov thru them in A17

Damn, Roland & MadMole need to see this!

Thank you. They also had hatches on them and the 360 bunker tunnel that I could lower and raise through the double arrow slit square, meaning I could completely close it off. There was also enough room to backup to prevent splash damage from rocket spam.

I'm not knocking their build, but massive projects like this are common place on multiplayer PVE and PVP servers alike.

I have played on multiple servers in A15 and A16 where people have built entire cities with player trading posts, teleportation stations, specialized merchants (armor, weapons, consumables, etc), stadiums, instanced PVP and zombie spawn arenas, race tracks, etc.

All of that capability is now gone, because we can't have more than one LCB. You just won't be able to stop people from griefing it to pieces.

OnlyMeiya, Poojam,

Well, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that Roland & MM have a productive conversation about this.

Since I've never played on a public server or even a local Co-Op game I had no idea this was going on. If either of you happen to know of any vids either showing bases or battles I'd like to take a look

 

[OnlyMeiya]

Currently I wont play multiplayer because of the LCB issue; you simply wouldn't be able to make a defensible base; and not being able to dive/hide underground isn't very feasible either with zeds digging.

The idea is to stay hidden, if you make surface defensives to deal with zeds before they start to dig, you give away your presence.

Players online are extremely observant and craftly, So many VERY subtle hints WILL give you away.
