i forgot VFE was even a mod
VFE is one of the few m*ds I respect, yes, very good m*d
The only OP part is that it seems to go a little crazy with house guns though
fast lava
The guns themselves are not more OP compared to vanilla
rain mango
the US has more guns than people
mostly in the south
kentucky is a southern state
with an abundance of gun-toting civilians
and, judging from the way knox county residents reacted to the military quarantine
VFE's take on house gun cases is realistic
stone meadow
yeah but does this mean you can loot 556 in stores now?
fast lava
yeah but does this mean you can loot 556 in stores now?
You always were able to in these past 42 versions I played
stone meadow
still, its kentucky
i dont buy into realistic loot personally

from 42.10, 42.11, 42.12, 42.13, and yes, ofc, still in 42.14
stone meadow
like yeah, sure it makes more sense realistically but is it fun? not for me
fast lava
i dont buy into realistic loot personally
The only guns I want to spawn "realistically" more often is M16, its silly how rare it is
stone meadow
plus, realistically each house should have thousands of units of random shit
rain mango
i dont buy into realistic loot personally
i like to make my settings arcadey-ish
since the knox infection is airborne i doubt that there would be anyone feeling well enough to get up and loot
stone meadow
its just ludonarrative dissonance
vital marten
I just like my loot rare enough to struggle
stone meadow
no game with loot has realistic settings
rain mango
and, judging from how low the population of anti-knoxxers is, the vanilla loot settings are unrealistic
stone meadow
its not fun
vital marten
and, judging from how low the population of anti-knoxxers is, the vanilla loot ...
vanilla just gives you way too much loot imo

the 90s were actually a boom in imports due to the USSR collapsing
all of a sudden, tons of ex soviet guns and gear

Too bad Zomboid is set after the Hughes Amendment so full auto AKs may not be very plausible though

adds the possibility of the knox infection being a soviet bioweapon snuck into the country via spetsnaz or some other special force
fast lava
Plenty of people owning them from before it was illegal
It doesn't apply retroactively, so any gun already in the market before 1985-5-19 was legal... HOWEVER
Automatic weapons in the US became, lets just say, basically unobtanium for civs 💔

in general south africa is great for cool and obscure guns

isnt tht overkill
no such thing as overkill
hollow grove
I think it's understandable for me as it is 4 am here

Luna, the peasants are revolting
stone meadow
isnt tht overkill
its less overkill to use it on a peasant than a pheasant
tall glen
overkill is when you spoil the meat by turning the animal inside out
charred lion
the insolent peasants arent working hard enough

if you shoot a pheasant with that rifle you wouldnt have much pheasant left

Technically
loud pumice
I think the main rule for American airsoft is no full auto or something.
stone meadow
I suppose it makes sense since a chance of someone having a real gun here are next to 0 so noone would assume the gun is real
So no need to make it distinctly obvious its a toy

No metal bb

you can have metal bbs

you dont want to shoot them at people or out of airsoft guns
Since they arent built for shooting metal bbs, thatll break your expensive toy

Then one someone gets hit and it hurts, they go mad.
It's almost like you got shot or something. Crazy.
stone meadow
Yeah
There are times when it is perferctly reasonable to complain though
Most sites have joule/fps limits for power though
For everyones fun and safety
loud pumice
What's the limit
stone meadow
You dont wanna be hit with someones modded gun that sends pellets at insane speeds into your skin or skull
stone meadow
What's the limit
In the uk its a maximum of 1.3 joules
for auto

Its pretty good
Theres a reason its so popular and lasted this long
but what annoys me is people who think dredd is a good guy
hes absolutely not one
not even in his first appearances
twin bear
I'm glad I'll be dead before anything gets worse
stone meadow
I'm glad I'll be dead before anything gets worse
no you wont
twin bear
I wonder how I'll die it'll prolly be on a toilet
stone meadow
you can hunt and grow food
plush cobalt
If it makes you feel any better, things are already getting worse every single day 😀
oak gazelle
must be a fair amount of overlap between them and LEA who are fans of the punisher
stone meadow
and make pipes for money
harsh crane
Dredd is a good guy from a certain pov
twin bear
If the world becomes shitty like that I'll go to making ammo and guns for ppl instead
plush cobalt
Dredd is a good guy from a certain pov
Any character ever is a good guy from a certain pov
twin bear
More money in Killin during those times I feel
harsh crane
Any character ever is a good guy from a certain pov
I’m Doomguy
plush cobalt
I'm Omar
oak gazelle
'my name jeff'
stone meadow
Dredd is a good guy from a certain pov
from a pov where the concept of morality doesnt exist maybe
twin bear
Even in the movie he's a menace
stone meadow
movie dredd is the nicest hes ever been
comic accurate dredd would send movie dredd to the iso cubes for being soft
plush cobalt
Good and evil aren't real but idc because good is what I like and evil is what I don't like
harsh crane
I’d like to see Dredd partner with robocop honestly
stone meadow
dredd is literally the personification of lawful neutral
stone meadow
robocop went against his programming to not do evil
harsh crane
Robocop isn’t a person
stone meadow
dredd actively follows his rules
twin bear
And in the new game as well
stone meadow
well, the laws
twin bear
Which was fucking sick btw
Rly good movie game
Surprised by it
Super gory too like the classics
harsh crane
That’s just a byproduct of the human brain
oak gazelle
rogue city?
stone meadow
dredd is basically if robocop was made without any human flaws
twin bear
Basically if they actually made Robocop a robot
stone meadow
especially in his early apperances
He will uphold the law, even while acknowledging that the law is not moral
twin bear
So funny how he's a cyborg but barely human
harsh crane
dredd is basically if robocop was made without any human flaws
Robocop is Dredd beta 1.2
twin bear
He will uphold the law, even while acknowledging that the law is not moral
STOP RESISTING
but it's his entire personality
That's insane
stone meadow
STOP RESISTING
dredd wouldnt tell you to stop, youd be dead
you resisted
his law giver will be set to whatever kills you fastest
twin bear
I think even being caught by him is a death sentence most of the time
stone meadow
I think even being caught by him is a death sentence most of the time
tbh id rather die than experience his sentencing for the most mundane crimes
harsh crane
We need a judge Dredd in the world rn but for billionaires
stone meadow
Getting sent to the iso cube for jay walking is crazy
twin bear
I get like having judges in rly shitty spots but just letting them run all over normal civvies
harsh crane
How about a movie where a Dredd like character hunts down billionaires
twin bear
Insane
harsh crane
I’d watch that
stone meadow
I get like having judges in rly shitty spots but just letting them run all over ...
the worst thing is that we see the better part of the megacity
oak gazelle
could honestly just be a new season of the purge
stone meadow
most of it doesnt have any law coverage
Law enforcement only responds to a tiny fraction of total crime
twin bear
It's like the frontier but everyone is suffering
twin bear
Law enforcement only responds to a tiny fraction of total crime
And most likely only when it benefits them
stone meadow
Which makes the judges sentencing people for minor infractions even more ridiculous
twin bear
Quota chasers personified
stone meadow
And most likely only when it benefits them
Theres a reason why most of the comic strips cover stories that rich people are involved in
Like in early dredd comics, it was a lot of stories of expensive tech going rogue
To be fair, even dredd being the tool of an unfair system that he is, is at least fair on all sides for everyone, he gives no quater to any offender
twin bear
He's doin what he was made to do that's true
stone meadow
He even sent a fellow judge to an iso cube for corruption
twin bear
Does he even know he's being a menace
stone meadow
Thats what makes dredd a good main character in that universe
stone meadow
I mean id be lucky if i lived anywhere near where judge activity was common
twin bear
True actually
Like u said it's all wastes
We would be eating dogs or some shit to survive
stone meadow
Not just that, even within the megacities, most of it is lawless
twin bear
Then get killed by some raiders
Imagine a city gets so big
U don't need law to keep it running
What a scary thought
oak gazelle
all this dystopia talk has me thinking I should just put on some dinosaur documentaries and take some fat dabs
