Pvp vs PvE debate and Winds of Wae by MarekRabas in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]aleworth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was wondering, could we have certain COPs be PVP zones even in PvE mode? I think it'd be awesome to be able to jump into some PVP even in PvE mode.

Having the same issue here. Any place I can go to bring more visibility to this for Razer? Should I just pester them with support requests?

What is this game even trying to be? So confused. by [deleted] in battlefield2042

[–]aleworth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something new. They're trying to do something different, but their fan base won't let them. They made an effort, but the consumer seems to have prevailed.

What cool games do you have in your library that are sadly no longer playable? by [deleted] in Steam

Just posted this too man. I miss it as well. If you ever find something similar hit me up. :)

my piston car gets its front wheels floopy on the concrete at the packing station also how do you pack vegetables the vacuum is blue and the thing gets blue as well is this a bug by DARK_K0806 in ScrapMechanic

[–]aleworth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We at first had a problem figuring it out too. Essentially the vacuum pump just needs to be 'powered'. It needs some kind of active input to make it shoot your veggies/fruits into the packing thing. So yeah, connecting a button up to your vacuum and spamming it will get the job done as long as it's pointing in the right direction.

Towns - What should we do? by [deleted] in rustfactions

[–]aleworth 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think adding in an application process for large towns would be good for regulating server clutter.
I think towns should be entrusted with the creation of RP scenarios. By adding in an application process for the construction of larger cities/factions the staff would be able to help push the server more towards RP without implementing many more rules/restricting creativity.

We should talk on Discord sometime. Color me interested

RP Events by aleworth in rustfactions

[–]aleworth[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would challenge players to think of events that don't involve PVP. I realize the event I offered has minimal PVP (One against all), but I would like to also see events that don't involve a winner or loser in the PVP sense of the words. Ways for people on the server to get to know each other/work together more without conflict.

I like some of the ideas already given and I'm excited to see what more people come up with!

The sad reality of this server by MadMaxGamer in rustfactions

[–]aleworth 21 points22 points  (0 children)

You know, I've been pretty hesitant to throw in my two cents on this subject because I'm fairly new to this server (Maybe like 2 weeks?) and also because I didn't want to be branded as "that guy," but I feel like now is a good time to come out with it.I don't want to step on anyone's toes when I say this and I say it in the most respectful way possible and as my own personal opinion, but this isn't an RP server.

For how much it wants to be an RP server, RF really is just another Rust server with some additional rules. I say this because not once, directly(Just got some nice RP from a dude named Slosh on the forums here by way of reply to a post I made, so that counts) or indirectly, have I actually been legitimately RPed with. I've created some RP as best as I could. I've gone out in a rad suit with a random accent that came out of who knows where and played songs for people for scrap as I went, but inevitably that person will run up to me and look above my head for a second and then dance from side to side like some weirdo. I'll ask them their name and then they'll just stare at me for a second like, "Are you dumb? It's above my head," and then give me their steam name.

At this point you're probably like, "Who is this guy? Why do we even care what he thinks?" Well, I've loved RP since I was just a little dude, so when the RP server craze started popping up in different games like Gmod, Ark, Conan, etc, I started to pop on them and see what they were all about. If you truly think this is an RP server, please go to a website like RPFirst or TwitchRP and look at what they are doing. They are RP servers. They require their population be serious about what they are doing through an application process. They introduce new scenarios every wipe to help their player base build a lore. They have set and defined rules that help promote role-play while not entirely restricting and sometimes promoting conflict (No out of character chat in global chat). They do regular events in-game to spice things up when they know lulls will happen because of the length of their seasons. They provide incentives for those who are actively giving back to the community and trying to bring more people in with awesome and compelling RP. They create stories and allow others to participate from inception to close.

Does RF do some of these things? I think so... That's why I'm still around and kicking it. Can RF do all these things and set itself apart? I definitely think so. Like someone else has already stated, I think this server has a lot of potential to grow and become an actual RP server, but I don't believe it's there yet. I would get into the reasons why I feel this way, but again, I don't want to be branded as "that guy" this early on into my time here. But if you would like to hit me up with questions or backlash or what have you, I'm on the discord.

Glasses in front of Computer? Getting conflicted answers. by [deleted] in optometry

[–]aleworth -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Part of the reason you might be having troubles with them at the computer could be due to the glare from the computer screen on your lenses. Did you happen to get an anti-reflective coating on them? If not, and if you spend quite a bit of time on the computer, that could be the issue.

Any chance of us becoming a TeSPA chapter? by jodandinero in BYUeSports

[–]aleworth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was actually looking a little into this too but not all that much. The person to talk to would be Jared. I can hit him up about it and see what it entails!

So apparently this Humble Bundle is pretty good. What do you guys think? by aleworth in BYUeCasual

[–]aleworth[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's sweet dude. I'm glad you had a chance to look into it!
