Hello everyoneYes, it´s us, the 77y, and were back with a new weekly event!
You maybe remember us from our strict Sunday Linebattle event?
Maybe from our Thursday Siege Event?
Or maybe you tried our Thursday Deathball event? That I do believe was played at some sundays as well.
Well, to those who see a pattern, yes, we are becomming less stricter with time. Must be a disease of some sort.
Therefore, we will now launch something new!
Every Friday at 7 p.m. (British time... GMT+0), lasting 1 good hour!
(1 Private Hour - after that, the server slides back into normal rotation, so that if people wish to keep on playing, they can do so.)
Spoiler
Yes, it is alive!
We have had a nice little Zombie-Server up and running for some time to test a lot of things, and now we believe we have reached a point where we can use it for a bigger cause!
So, heres how its gonna go down.We would of course like to see some signups on beforehand - so we can consider what maps to use. We dont want too big maps for a small amount of players, and ofcourse not too small maps for a large amount of players. So yeah, a little "expected" number would be nice
In order to reduce "boredom"-meter before event begins, we will set some small warmup-maps for everyone, while we could get any last-minute shit sorted. Remember, were only humans (for a little longer), we can make mistakes too (mistakes have a bad habit of turning you zombie for some wierd reason).
In order to join, you simply have to be part of a regiment, and have the regiment sign up.
Spoiler
We do not care if you are a Skirmisher/Light/Cavalry/Artillery/Line-regiment. Doesn´t matter for this sort of event, although Cav will be disabled, because all horses accidentily turned zombie too. Sorry for giving them infected water
We have 2 ways we could begin the event with - depending on the amount of players and the interest from it.
1: 1 or 2 players from EACH joining regiment will start by going Zombie. Whether the regiments pick one or randomly choose, is up to themselves. It will be announced on each event, how many zombies you are expected to bring from your zombie-farm.
or
2: For each round, an entire regiment will be chosen to go zombie. This is only likely to happen if we are a fuck lot of people, and someone have a damn big lust for being too disciplined brain-hunters.
Well, we really like to do custom maps for this kind of thing, but we are only just beginning, so bear with us if it aint going down in the best way for starters.
That means, if you find a bug, please report it, have fun with it, but do not abuse it to a point where you ruin it for other people. But do have fun with it while its there.
When event begins, we do not require you to line up and move out in lines of 5 or whatever. Its the frickin zombie apocalypse!
Whether you are surviving through organized shizzles, or running around in panick, hiding in fear or fighting with bravery, we do honestly not care.
As earlier mentioned, we also do not care what kind of regiment you are. Spawn in as whatever you wish!
If Rocket Artillery floats your boat, then by all means (as long as you do not use the rocket ramp to block places... We will badmin the shit out of you for that).
If you wanna be a sailor. Do that.
If the entire regiment wants to be different classes, do so!
The only thing is: Sappers. You are allowed to go sapper, but you are not allowed to bug out the earthworks, plankspam, or build yourself to unreachable places... I expect that I myself will not be allowed anywhere near the sapper-role, since I cannot control myself on that matter. So yeah... Restrain from those things please
Spoiler
Also, if you believe an admin is abusing their powers, feel free to take a screenshot and report it to Aztir. He doesnt like it when people try to ruin his fun times. It makes le unicorn-lord sad!
How do you win this thing as a human?Simple: Survival! There will be a specific time you need to survive.
For instance: 20 people 5-8 minutes
40 people 10-12 minutes
100 people 15-20 minutes
100+ people.... Well, if we get there, I´ll take a banhammer to the face and experiment with the time-table, we will look into it by then if 20 minutes is totally wrong... It could go so many ways!
I would love to record the sole Human player escaping from the 149 zombies!
Update after first try: We have no clue on times anymore...
Definetly need to test a lot on that point... Sorry.
How do you win as a zombie?
Well, thats the irony: You win when there are no more brains to feed on, and all zombies die of hunger due to lack of human meat, and good old mother earth can start over!
WIN!- Well, if you are a zombie, and you spawn with a gun, it is a bug. We are really trying to resolve it, and we do not frown upon using it on the public zombie server, but this is zombie event. Please do not shoot your gun if you are a zombie.
- Time is not showing. You see remaining time by clicking yourself into the Game Rules. Sorry for the inconvenience.
- What is a zombie? Well, thats easy. It is a sweet Russian Partizani.
Therefore, Team 1 will always be Russia, and the only playable class on russia is Partizani. - It should not be possible to spawn as anything else than Partizani. Team 2 is open to every country (chosen by random), and is the Human side ofcourse (all classes open, except those who include horsies).
- When the event ends, we will open the server to the public, and let the server slide back into normal rotation, so that if people wish to keep on playing, they can do so.
- We also apologise on beforehand, there is going to be a lot of map-switching. That is because the script works so that Resets and Rounds do not work.
We have to switch map to actually reset or start a new round.
