We need a minecraft server tbh

actually I think you'll find that when minecraft server #233 opens this community will see a huge resurgence in numbers

DINNER APPARENTLY
 

want me to start putting OB on my baggies so all the crackheads from bedale join the community 

THAT FACE WHEN HBO AND GRRM ASKED FOR 10 SEASONS AND THE DIRECTORS SAID NAH ITS FINE WE CAN DO IT IN 8
THAT FACE WHEN HBO AND GRRM ASKED FOR 10 EPISODES AND THE DIRECTORS SAID NAH WE'LL DO 6
THAT FACE WHEN HBO GAVE DIRECTORS UNLIMITED BUDGET AND WE GOT THE MOST WELL ACTED POLISHED TURD EVER MADE
THAT FACE WHEN DIRECTORS WERE PREPAID AND ARE JUST SHITTING NONSENSE OUT CAUSE THEY CAN'T BE BOTHERED ANYMORE
very sad that we wont be getting anything like GoT again for a while

quentin tarantino fell off

To me it's pretty pointless bringing out servers or changing who is in charge of OB at the minute. There needs to be a shift in what we are all playing. I'm all for ideas but any server you bring out now will more than likely be dead in a week lets be honest.  We need to bide our time and wait for a new landmark game or game engine, like the next g-mod or CS, something that everyone will be pulled to. The only game i see at the minute that most people in OB are going to be pulled to is when Halo is launched on Steam, we can wait and see if dedicated servers pop up for it and make sure we are among the first to establish a decent community. In the meantime don't waste your time bitches.
 
 

nice forums doesnt work properly.
 
also back in the day when people were mod/admin and they didnt find motivation to do anything or having busy schedule for work etc. They lay down their role and give it to someone else who has got the time. Like i told conor i dont give a shit abouth whats happening atm cause i dont care anymore mostly. I am happy to join teamspeak and talk to the guys and play games. 
Gaming also changed a lot last years. People get older, new games come out and seriously no1 in here would play jailbreak for longer than a week. But yea if you are a Owner/admin or something and there isnt anything done last 6 months maybe its time for a change? or actually show something that we know you guys are working on. These threads always come up every half a year and its always the same. yea we working on this we working on that. 
 
Also @Frostie i really enjoy your post, i remember when you still talked shit few weeks ago abouth whats being done in outbreak. saying you dont care anymore and no1 is doing anything, yet you come here just to shit on mintlou. big ass hypocrite, saying conor funds the teamspeak so he cares. plenty times we said we want to fund aswell but you get no proper reaction back how to fund aswell.
 
Also big idea to have a fundraiser on the forums for the cost for the website and teamspeak? loads of other communities do this and we shared this idea months ago aswell, no proper response. 
i didnt really wanna make a post like i said cause i enjoy getting on teamspeak and just speak/game with my buddies.
but we all know mintlou is not the easiest person to deal with but i agree this time this motherfucker has points and nothing is being done last 6/8 months, reviving minigames or jb for the 10th time is not worth it. we all know it dies within 2 weeks. 

I wouldn't call 30 people split into 5 Groups a community tbh, everyone in OB has different interests and the one thing they had in common was the game server or events that OB used to run, with neither of those happening it's just a TS server with 30ish people on it with 5-8 of which being in the OG channel ,15 being spread in Mix Rooms with about 3 in each and around 7 people constantly in Games Rooms, these numbers never really change, people have at this point stopped trying to mix groups of people up and it's obvious why, they have no reason too, before they had servers or events which led to community integration, without those OB will remain a TS server which has no real community feel to it, the only person that I see moving between groups consistently is Quinn, however they've been in the community fuck knows how long so they comfortably know the OGs and is still the age of the other people within the community so they can relate to their humour etc, which leads to another thing of when the possibility of Discord was being discussed, that thread alone shows the divide between the community some people willing to leave if the move was going to happen and honestly I don't blame them it's like when someone said "It's like going to a pub to see your mates and saying we need more mates" we don't and hence why the community is split, no common interests between groups cause splits and the splits can be fixed with events or a server which people will enjoy longterm.

imagine how deadly that thing is gonna be on a fuckin mouse dude

Reach multiplayer was top. But halo 3 campaign was GUCCI

this is the peak of human comedy 

wraith most boring legend confirmed

can't wait till they fix that crash bs, so infuriating when you're game freezes and you get an error prompt 

TWICE THE POST TWICE THE REP KEEM

This is probably one of the more tense games I've bought recently, but then you realise all you gotta do is pistol-run 99% of your runs and you'll always come out with better shit. 
Apart from that it's been the same group of games, Vic 2.
Tbf at this point I've legit gave up on new releases for a while, only three games interest me and thats Cyberpunk, Outer Worlds & Bannerlord, everything else either looks dogshit early access-tier or literal Big-Dev 'Triple-A' micro-transaction hell.

I hope everyone has had a good time over the holiday period, as it comes to a new year with Outbreak, we are looking to reengage the community focus through the use of game servers and community events. More information will be coming about this in the future, but as for now, I am proud to announce our upcoming server.
As many of you may have seen at the top of the forums, Outbreak now has a DayZ server. We are currently looking for, implementing, and testing mods as well as making changes to basic server settings to make the server more enjoyable for everyone. If anyone has any suggestions on what kind of mods they would like to see added to the server, feel free to post here. Any ideas that you think could make the server more enjoyable are appreciated, although not everything is possible due to the fairly new addition of the modding tools, and there not being a crazy amount of mods available. However, we can compromise and try to fulfill these ideas as best as we can with the resources we have.
If you do have any other suggestions for servers that you think could work in Outbreak, feel free to post them below.
All the best,
The Outbreak Staff ?

1st person
 
Reason 1: people won't be able to literally SPY on you by hugging a corner of a wall
Reason 2: If the player base is built off of 3rd person players and the server is switched to 1st person a couple months into it, this would be a huge gamble in itself since the people who play in 3rd person would probably want it to stay that way.

Idea 2: separate server for 1st person
(sure this would split the player base but hear me out)
You could use this idea as a testing period per say, see which server gains more traction and if they both get a healthy amount of players then good, if one gets a significantly higher amount than the other (30-40 player difference), consider mainly focusing on the more populated server, at this point i'm assuming the players from the other server would have possible made an account on the forums so they would know the reason why the less popular server was closed down and they'd (hopefully) just move onto the other OB hosted server instead of moving onto a different server with similar settings (aka if they get on teamspeak don't be a cuck and drive them away).
