Hello
Phoenix 22 Dec, 2016 @ 8:14am 
Hey all I remember the months and months and possibly years ago I used to play on this server... the only reason I stopped was because my computer couldnt handle the game... It still cant, but I remember taking to Shine and possibly I remember applying for admin.

Let me know if you remember me! I used to be called either Guide or #GUIDE or FIO or headlessguide or Lil_Lich I dont remember what one I had back then

You can connect by searching Unofficial from the server list and then searching for RIV4LS, you can connect directly by loading a web browser and navigating to steam://connect/167.114.210.229:19016 and launching the game selecting 'steam client bootstrapper', or going to 'VIEW' in the top left corner of the steam window and selecting servers> favorites tab and adding the ip 167.114.210.229:19016.

We now have custom loot drops (beacons). Everything 'useful' is in the loot table and no garbage. I have balanced this towards the rest of the servers settings to where it is short of being 'overpowered' yet should still be 100% contested, even white drops have special items in them that could be valuable at any level.

The drops also contain just enough to provide an alternative method of farming materials. (S+ Industrial Grinder is set to return 50% resources)

Added SE engrams, S+ Mod, an Egg an Poop collector, heavily modified the mods allowed engram list to be non redundant and pertinent to the server. Cave flying enabled, diseases die with players and c4/remote engrams have been disabled. Mods may change over time or between wipes, for instance once we add a real SE server to the Cluster, there will no longer be a need for a Mod to add these engrams in.

We decided it best that people raid with rockets and grenades and use strategy rather than strapping c4 to 400% pters and breaking game mechanics with no counterplay. Platform mounted Rocket Turrets and Water MINES are perfect for blasting your way inside someones underwater cubby. :)

And on that topic, its my hope that server wipes only need happen at most every 3 months, but that will be something that has to be played out to see when its needed. A majority vote of this community can always sway things in one direction or the other.
