  1. 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
  2. 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.
  3. 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.

    Vehicle IWBUMS

    Makes covering large distances much easier, so I guess on multiplayer it makes a big map more accessible.
  5. 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!
  6. All these tips are great, radios could really use some love with the larger map.
  7. 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
  8. I mean, the servers and addons cover so much of the stuff that happens. New Dawn has heavily modified scenarios. We're a couple months away from probably launching a Fallout themed server. What the game needs is to deliver in small promises that allow for a modded community to grow and build the game. There is no reason that people are not in the market for a game similar to Space Station 13 that lasts longer than a couple hours of people randomly killing one another. Like if the game added other monsters that are not in the base game that can attack players that you can mod in? Steller. Wouldn't be as much work as vehicles but adds the option to enable giant crabs that unburry from sand and chase you down. Like, they've got such a great game but they are being too ambitious.
  9. Sometimes I just wish they'd fix a bunch of basic shit and release a patch. Doesn't have to be anything fancy. PZ needs redstone(Electricity) like in Minecraft. The ability to trap your base so you can defend yourself against offline robbers and just basic stuff to give the game life. We don't need the next generation of NPC intelligence or cars or animations but we sure love features. The neutrition / injury updates were good examples of quality of life improvements that you don't have to remake the whole game to implement.
  10. I got banned again, this time for something I didn't even do and they did not even offer me a chance to defend myself after being a member of the community for years. When I offered evidence to the contrary they just changed their reason for banning me and publicized that I was a cheater. Tarnishing my hard work, legacy and reputation. I didn't dupe on your server and that's quite evident in the logs and just looking through what my character owned. I was enjoying a quiet passive life of making arrows and using a bow, using a slingshot and protecting the weak as a good character. I made Alice Packs with Hydrocraft and apparently the admins thought I somehow cheated and ported them onto the server, because I guess they didn't know how Hydrocraft worked. So while I was playing without any explanation, I was suddenly banned from the server without a chance to defend myself. When I messaged an admin and corrected the record and explained how I used Hydrocraft to acquire the items, they responded with some coordinate that showed me loading backups. Said that was indisputable proof I was duping. (Despite no duped items existing anywhere in the world and them not even finding any duped items so this entire claim is just a pure fabrication of people with wild imaginations.) and claim I was exploiting the game and any number of things warranting a perma ban. I wouldn't even bother to post my defense here, but the ban apparently locks me out of the entire AGN community and I think my friends and people who knew me deserve to know the truth. This is what happens when the decision makers are a stacked group of super-friends who vote in favor of each-others interests all the time. If someone from the community cares to share my response to the people who I cared about / cared about me I'd be deeply appreciative. I however am not going to bother to try to play on this server anymore, because at this point as an adult. This is just stupid.
  11. Can't wait until this stuff actually gets released. Playing on a server that is not IWBUMS is </3ing

    Grave Intention

    Can't wait to drive over people with my Spiffo van.
  13. Applications are now sadly closed. Please stay tuned for the winners to be announced.
  14. AGN does lots of different lores in many themes. This time we are tackling a two to three week long mini-lore based on the movie The Thing. You will get a single life and it will be steller. AGN is a heavy roleplay server so you will be expected to roleplay while playing on the server. https://newdawn.aggressivegaming.org/threads/who-goes-there.8980/ Here is a link to the thread that gives more information, expect this post to receive edits in time.
  15. Going to give this server a try, given some of the people who have signed up already I have a feeling this will be a pretty fun time.
  16. Because I enjoy to make neat and interesting bases. I wanted to try and make it look like a hill under survival settings. Still a work in progress, just wish I had more time / nails to complete it!
  17. Dirt pyramid! https://gyazo.com/9b6f981fdd014b1567b8daa8dcd47a73
  18. Here is a sample picture of my own personal attempt at creating a (underground like) structure. It is modeled after a hill and hopefully will look something like one when I am done. I intend to try and cover the wall looking area with probably some shrubs placements or tall withered farmed crops depending on how it looks. Also part of the wall I colored wrong accidentally and have not got around to fixing it yet. https://gyazo.com/7479b4310361ffdac8d7a5ab676d1263
  19. I've been attempting my own player made hills, but the inability to grow grass on dirt tiles is certainly causing some set backs. I instead opted to use old farmer crops to create a /foliage/ effect.

    So, I know we don't want to rustle that bee's nest. But do we have any word on anything animation related being released to IWBUMS? Player populations have really been struggling lately and I'd love to see animations hopefully spike them back into activity.
