This server has been an explosion of activity lately, makes me honestly excited to RP in PZ again. I know I'll see some old faces from the community, I look forward to seeing you all

I will be making an apperance here, lot of old longstanding PZ players seem invested in this server. I look forward to seeing some organic RP happening here hopefully we can make some great new memories here.

Leg fractures should take some of the longest durations, however it is heavily tied to medical skill. So if you are being braced by a 0 medical skill guy, it'll take you a loooong time. However, if you do it as a doctor it'll just take a few days of playtime.

Should feature the pistol / hunting rifle stutter step which allows you to shoot while maintaining distance. But perhaps that is more advanced strategies for the next video?

I'll answer this because these accusations are an attempt to tarnish my legacy. When they say /blatantly duping items/ they mean framed. There are no logs of items duped because I didn't dupe anything. Initially I was banned for having Alice Packs they thought I /hacked/ into the game, then when I told them you could build them with Hydrocraft and cited the recipe they just changed their reason. Nobody can cite what I duped /blatantly duped in mass/ because I didn't dupe anything. The only evidence they ever produced was me logging off in one location and logging into another. A result of loading a backup. Which I loaded because my file became corrupted because they thought adding 12 story skyscrapers with massive hordes of zombies / fixtures / textures was a good idea. The server has huge complex logs that give tons of information, if I was duping they'd easily have been able to cite what exactly they thought I was /blatantly duping./ Pretty much they make these big claims against me to try and tarnish my legacy by saying everything I did that was great or good on the server. I could only have accomplished by cheating. Which is false, I don't even want to be unbanned from New Dawn. I wear my ban proudly. Here's a story about one of their guys who had an obsession for me. Would go through every item in my base and try to interpret the rules in any way possible to try to get me in trouble. This guy, who is still an admin btw lol even after this. He has considerable sway on the server. So he rigged it. He added gun mods to the server so it allowed machine guns. Restricted drops so machine guns could only be spawned and couldn't be found randomly in boxes. Added mods that allowed extra perks / classes that gave him like +9 to aim from character creation but put it behind a gate so /nobody else could take it but a select few *Approved* individuals/ Then the guy restricted the military profession which had stats that were incredibly overpowered and made no sense how strong it was, but it was balanced because. "no one else could pick it." Then part of the class is that when they spawn they get a free machine gun with a box of ammo. Then the guy walks around and says "Look how tough I am? Have you seen my penis? it is very big and nice and impressive. I am not compensating for anything I swear." If you go up against them, expect to deal with such problems such as. Having zombies spawned on your base, have the admins friends /accidentally/ find your base. /Random/ admin events where 3 bandit players attack your base with machine guns. People ERPing 5 feet away from you... Constantly. False accusations and let's not forget some good old fashioned cheating, one such example. Making people who are their friends invincible during pvp and when asked about it claim it was an accident. I'm not alone either, there are big groups of people who played on ND who had to leave because the rigged favorism has made it not even worth playing because the winners and losers are decided by a select few people. Not by skill or merit, but by popularity gauged by a small group of "Superfriends." In the words of Coach "This used to be a nice neighborhood."

The thread still lives, god damn.

From what I understand several problem players still exist in the ND community. I personally enjoyed being a long term community member who was repeatedly framed and banned for daring to go against the secret meta communities that conspire to throttle or essentially grief players whom they do not like. I've played a lot of Project Zomboid and even set some standards and made some good contributions to the Project Zomboid community and this servers has made numerous attempts to frame me has tarnished my long-term legacy. This server used to be run by a fair and impartial guy who was really cool named Tibby, who paid for the server and didn't pay close enough attention to a select group who used democracy to stack the admin team with all their friends essentially turning the server into their little playground. Problem was, because the majority were under eighteen years of age, they couldn't afford to keep the server running so they've resorted to pay to win tactics. I would not recommend New Dawn as a server because it directly hampers creativity and will often stack the deck against you to advance their own personal / friends narrative. I have no doubt this post will certainly stirr some attention, and invite all kinds of slander. But I can't exactly post it on their own website because they moderate it like they are the secret police. Tl;dr ~ Rigged playground where you exist only as long as a you bring pleasure of administrators and their friends, by sucking up and pretending they are the coolest. Enjoy server rules that are directly made to favor specific players and admins spawning themselves the best equipment. The spelling and grammar isn't so bad though. ~Jack

Gaining a lot of steam now. Happy to see a lot of old faces in the PZ community I have not seen in a while! I look forward to see where things are heading.

Server is going pretty good so far.

So cool looking, if only I could speak spanish!

New Dawn actively uses radios, and at night the zombies sprint so the majority of people lock themselves in their own respected houses and communicate over the radio with other factions for entertainment.

Makes covering large distances much easier, so I guess on multiplayer it makes a big map more accessible.

I am getting pretty excited for this vehicle patch. Not just because of the cars but cleaning up so much of the code to make the game run smoothly!

All these tips are great, radios could really use some love with the larger map.

Suggestion for negative traits. I'll add to this list as I think of them. Blind +10 Tourettes (You randomly yell profanity.) +5 Elderly (Reduced Movement Speed / Vision / Hearing / Higher Rate of Exertion) +15 Glutton ( Like hearty appetite but it requires eating more food in order to fill yourself. ) 6 Violent (Becomes sad when long periods of time go by without a fight.) Crippled (Permanent broken bonken leg status) +15
