Implemented Rules and Issues

We all know that we've implemented some other rules, mainly, the new one dealing with registration and the whitelist.  This isn't something we wanted to do but it's something we had to do.  We want to keep your guys/gals stuff safe with little impact on everyone.  The whitelist and registration helps us with that.  Everyone is protected since no random trolls are getting one and we get to scan them prior to allowing access.  It's a win win as we see it.

This is just a quick post but I also want to let you know that not EVERYTHING is an emergency and warrants contacting me.  Errors are going to happen, it's an alpha game.  Most of you have finally learned that excess contact is unnecessary but there are still some of those that feel that they need to do it when it something small, and mostly on their part i.e. your internet connection is slow, your computer isn't strong enough to handle this glitchy game, your friend cannot get online because they did not give the right information during registration.

Those are all small things and need to be looked at on your end.  If you feel this is directed at you, it probably is.  You know who you are and I do to, obviously, but not everyone else.  So don't get offended and butt hurt because that's not what I'm here to do.  I really just want you all to know that you do not need to contact me with every little issue.  I have discord on my phone for emergencies or upgrading the server like what I did with 13.7.  Server updated within minutes of being notified!  But if it continues to be .... such as the things above are showing, I'll have to remove discord from my phone and allow only email contact which will be much slower and at my leisure.

I'm not mad, upset, or ticked off.  I just want you to know that I have a life outside of being a slave to the server, website, video editing...etc.  It's rare, but it is there.

You all have wonderful night and I'll see you in game.  Hopefully with a lot less errors.

Server Registration Made Simple

You've made it to our website somehow and I will not complain about that but you've obviously come here with certain intentions.  I imagine that you would like to play on our server.  That is wonderful and we will accept you with open arms.  There is only one thing you must do and it is really simple.  You have to register and the server password will be emailed to you.  The registration process takes less than 3 minutes and approx. ten minutes later; if everything checks out, you will be granted access to one of the most popular 7 Days to Die PvE servers currently running.

If you did not notice upon coming to this site, the registration tab is near the top of the page next to "Contact".  Click on there, answer the simple questions and you are on your way.  Thank you for taking the time to register.

We look forward to seeing you in game!

What to do next?...

After last week/weekend, I have had to really put some thought into this server manager, in-game admin thing.  You see, I love playing with each and every one of you but it has come to the point that every time I login I spend most of my time aiding you in something you've lost or something someone else has messed up i.e....excessive trees, minibikes, etc.  Honestly, I do not mind helping and I really do like helping but I also like to play the game.  I'd like to build more events for people to experience.  I'd like to not just be an admin in which everyone jumps at for when something disappears.  It doesn't seem to be going that way though.

Over the weekend I managed to get a little bit of game time in again while up at the butt crack of dawn.  Mike was doing his thing and I was doing mine.  We had our typical weekend talk about games, things we do, what we were doing in game.  That sort of thing.  The sort of thing most of you experience every time you login to the server.  I on the other hand can really only experience that while up early in the morning with Homerdog, Mike, Nerix...

I hopped off last night and within minutes the Discord chat is blowing up with issues.  Issues, which, if given the information, would allow me to aid you anyway I can.  Without the info, I can do nothing if I am not experiencing it myself.  Now, I'm not sure what caused these issues, or who and what may have caused them but it seems that I roughly get two solid weeks of people playing before something goes crazy.  I do not think it is a coincidence and I do not think that it is ONE single player is causing these issues either.  No blame is going to anyone and if we could blame someone, they would be kicked and banned.

I wanted this server to be a place for people to gather and play and enjoy the company of one another, and for the most part that seems to be happening.  As our rankings go up we seem to be attracting more and more people.  I'm absolutely thrilled about this.  Unfortunately the game cannot keep up with the amount of people we are trying to throw at it.  Soooo, I have come up with an idea that I would like to throw out there.

I am thinking of making the server a password protected server.  It will require registration on our website.  You will not be getting spam mail or anything of that nature.  It is so I can keep track of who is allowed and who is not.

Those that have played since the first server are "grandfathered" in and have no need to register.  I want it protected so that we do not have trolls joining.  It's a lot of work for a troll to go through to just get on and get kicked off.  This will also allow me to see if people are in the global ban list prior to them attempting to join.  I didn't want to go in this direction but I need to keep structure within the game and with the constant logging in and logging out, it tears away at the server RAM causing me to reboot 4 times yesterday.  I may also be knocking the server back to 16 as well and seeing if someone wants to admin a second server named Z-Day Pve II.

Will this split some of us up?  Quite possibly.  But not everyone on the server plays with everyone on the server.  We would still use our Discord and I'll create a Channel for Z-Day PvE II.

Finally, if what has happened to the server cannot be fixed...prepare for a wipe....AGAIN!

Between falling buildings in water, items flying across the map, and the constant minibike issues...it really causes overall issues on the server.  The minibikes are a major problem and the only work around is to not use them.  This is why I do not use them.  I hope that I can fix the issues today but if not, remember, it's alpha and we know better.

Give me your thoughts and comments



The Irascible Joker

Early Shutdown and Maint

With all the messages and errors and this and that popping up on the server...we feel it's a good idea to take a look at what the hell is going on.  If you see errors, copy them in the FORUM, that's what the ERROR, ERROR, ERROR Irascible Joker area is for.  I need this information to see what problems are occurring and why they are occurring.  Please post any info in there prior to 730 pm CST tomorrow (1-25-2016).  This is when I am taking the server down to check out issues.

Have a good night and we'll see you in game



The Irascible Joker

EVENT TIME!

Hey, all you Z-Day PvE fans!  It's SATURDAY and we all know what that means.  It's event day. We hope you've had a wonderful day thus far and that it only gets better.  The first event of our server kicks off tonight at 5 pm CST at the Colosseum!  After all the talks between our admins we have come to a decision to allow teams of two in the arena at the same time.

SO PARTNER THE HELL UP!  It's gonna get REAL up in there.

Let's go over the rules.  Two man team required.  Volunteer basis.  You do not have to participate in the event, you can watch.  Those that participate will earn zCoin rewards and the possibility of a minibike with 2000 gas.  1st place takes the bike!  You probably want to know the rules, so here they are:

1.  To participate, you need a team of two.
2.  When entering the gladiator hallway, you dump all items on you in the chest to the right
3.  Each player takes all items they get to participate with from the left chest
4.  Each player will enter the arena and go to the center, letting Joker know when they are officially          "ready".
5.  The object is to stay alive and kill off the overwhelming amount of Zeds as quickly as possible.
6.  If you die, the event is done for you.  (If your team mate manages to survive and kill all zombies, then both of you progress to the next round)
7.  On exit from the arena you will place server given items back in the left chest and pick your items back up from the right one.
8.  If both of you die, do not worry about the backpacks on the battlefield.  Admins will handle this.

There will be 4 rounds that will become increasingly harder as they go on.  May your skill save you. We'll see you at the event.

New In-Game Chat Commands

By now most of you have noticed people typing /this and /that and you are sitting there wondering "WTF are they doing?"  It is simple, those commands actually do something.  So, while you're here, take a look at what we've updated.

There is now an online server shop, which is mainly meant for cosmetics but you can find a few useful items on there such as brass, lead, nitrate powder and coal.  Yes...all those things to make ammo.  Here's how to do it:

/wallet ~ this shows how many zCoins you currently have (earned from playing and killing Zeds)
/shop list ~ shows a list of the categories currently attached to the server store

Currently we have the categories below:

/shop building ~ building supplies
/shop metals ~ lead and brass
/shop decor ~ bookcases, doors, etc..
/shop minerals ~ coal, nitrate etc..
/shop misc ~ obviously misc. item
/shop books ~ leather tanning, concrete book, steel, etc...

Those are the ones that currently exist.  If you want to buy things then type in things such as:

/buy 21618
/buy 21619

I know you're asking yourself "what is with the numbers?"  The numbers are what shows up next to the item you want.  That is how it is classified in game.  So that is what the numbers are for.

The item will drop at your feet and we highly encourage you to buy something while indoors.  Items drop on the ground and have a tendency to shoot across the map.  You will not be reimbursed as this is an alpha game and there are bugs.  If you buy and it flies, consider it a learning lesson and try a different spot to purchase.

Finally, let's get to the newest thing.  WAYPOINTS!

Each person can create up to 5 waypoints, private waypoints.  None of your friends can use your zGate waypoint.  It is yours and only yours at the cost of 500 zCoins for creation.  Yes, it costs zCoins to create a zGate and it costs 20 coins to use them after creation.  It's an investment, look at it that way.

So, you created a zGate by typing /zgate create {name} and obviously the name is whatever you named it.  You got your 500 zCoins taken and now you are way the hell away from the gate but want to get to it.  Simply type /zgate visit {name} and BOOM, you're there at the cost of 20 zCoins.  This also has a time limit of 60 minutes.  So, make sure when you are traveling that you can wait the time to use it again if necessary.  We do not have intentions of adjusting this time limit because people will use it too often and take away from their traveling experiences.  I'll write the commands below just in case you didn't want to read....

/zgate create {name}
/zgate visit {name}
/zgate list ~ this shows a list of the waypoints you've created, in case you forget the names.
/zgate delete {name} ~ allows you to delete a zgate you've created.

REMEMBER!  It costs 500 zCoins to create one and you do not get your money back if you delete one.

I think this about covers it.  Have fun and we'll see you in game!



The Irascible Joker

How to Use Discord

Whoa!  Hold on.  It really is not.  So let us show you a picture of what you'll see when you join on our Discord link.  This is what you'll see below:

We have highlighted the word "General" under voice chat because that is what you need to click in order to join the chat once this window has come up.  You'll see your name pop up in there and you can start talking.

Here is a complaint we get:

I cannot hear anyone or speak!

If you cannot hear someone then you may have to adjust your playback and recording settings on your computer.  This is not the fault of the application

I highly encourage you to download the application itself as I have had no problems logging in and using it, daily.

Sometimes if people are not hearing you...you may have your microphone muted...or...you don't have one.  We cannot help you there.  It is honestly your issue.  If you cannot hear us, maybe your headset or speakers are off.  Sometimes we overlook some of the simplest of things.  It happens to the best of us.

Either way, there is you intro to Discord.  If you honestly cannot join Discord from our WORKING link (I know it works and if it does not, clear your cache and history and try again) then you will never get in to hear all the fun banter.  Sorry, but we cannot be any clearer than this.

Have a wonderful day and I'll see you in game.



The Irascible Joker

In Game Economy

As time goes on we can often find ourselves getting bored of certain games.  You feel as if you're doing the same things over and over again.  On our server, we aim to change that, constantly.  We don't want you logging in and wandering around aimlessly...and most of all...bored.  So, as of last night, Server took her next step at incorporating an in-game economy with an item called a zCoin. You earn these coins by simply playing the game (.25 zCoin per minute) and killing zombies (1 zCoin for every zombie killed).  Be aware though, death comes with a cost now.  A cost of 20 zCoins.  

Remember, it is a survival game.  The idea is not to have the zCoin be a primary means of currency or to destroy the value of scavenging.  It is intended for those "ah shit, I need some gunpowder and I'm out but I really don't want to go looking for it now as it's late" type of scenario.  As time goes on we'd like to eventually move towards "shop owners" as opposed to a server store.  Shop owners will use the zCoin as their currency too.  You can pay them and they'll give you items they've found, in the meantime we'll place the server store on there.

We are really curious about your thoughts on this!

So a little more info on this for those that don't understand what is happening.

By typing /wallet in the text chat, it brings up how much money you have.

The list of text commands are as followed:

/shop ~ brings up all items for sale in the server store (not complete yet, so don't get snappy)

/shop ammo ~ brings up all items for sale in the "ammo" category 

/shop furniture ~ obviously brings up furniture

We want to make this easy enough for people to see what is on sale, buy hey! now you want to buy something.  How do you do that?  We'll show you below.

The list of text commands are as followed:

/buy 21618 ~ currently assigned as 50 rounds of Magnum ammo

/buy 21619 ~ currently assigned to 100 rounds of 9mm ammo

We know you won't remember the numbers, that is why the /shop ___ blah blah blah thing exists. When you pull up the list of items for sale, it shows a green number next to the item.  That is the number you type after the word "buy".  Once purchased, the item will appear at your feet.  Simply hold "E" and go on about your business.

As we've seen in the game, sometimes when dropping an item on the ground, the game glitches and launches across the world.  What a WASTE!  ConcernedBob and myself came up with the enclosure work around.  Go to your house or a enclosed area and order your item.  If the item attempts to launch, it'll hit the wall and stay within your area for pick-up.  If you do not use this work around and attempt to spawn it in the middle of nowhere, be aware that you WILL NOT be given those items from server.  You took a chance....and you lost.  Be smart about it.

Finally, the /sethome and /home function cost zCoins.  It is not much but it still costs and has a wait time of 30 minutes.  While on the server you only have to use /sethome once and it costs 10 zCoins. The /home function costs 5 zCoins.  Once you log off and log back in you will have to reuse the /sethome function again.  So choose wisely or get to walking.  

That is all for now.  If you have any question, comments or concerns please leave those below.  Have wonderful day and we'll see you in game!

In the Midst of New Players

While playing last night I managed to see what was going on in the text window, while also listening to those that spoke in our DISCORD chat party.  As usual, night rolled around as it always does and players hunkered down in case a horde or two came looking for them.  Fox Girl, one of the newest members asked if our almighty server had a story about her.  Well...there was a story on there if you were lucky enough to catch it...or be a part of it.  Little red started off the whole shenanigan by telling server a story then asking for one in return.  Somewhere along the line there was a band camp, flute and a AC vent.  They'll have to fill you in on those details.

As for Fox Girl who decided to speak to Server, she may be a little more hesitant after what transpired last night.  Although the story was funny, in the end, we all know what servers end game is.  While everyone gathered around the campfire, crouched, and hiding from hordes...Server told her story.  It goes on without saying that even when enthralled with a comical story from Server, you still have your guard up.  But as time passed and you let your guard down, that is when Server gives you a taste of her power.  It was funny to hear the screams and chatter from everyone who were taking part in this story as screamers began to spawn in the city around them.

As for what happened next.  Everyone did manage to survive but Fox Girl managed to...well...we all know that part of the story.  Needless to say, she needed a clean up on aisle 3 and a hot spring bath in Dog Town.

So far as we can tell, Server is just full of surprises.  Between her uncanny ability to know where you are, what is coming for you...to EVERYTHING in your inventory, there is never a dull day when server arrives on the scene.  May your scavenging hunts be bountiful and if they're not.  Do yourself a favor and do not ask Server.  She doesn't take kindly to handouts.  

You guys and gals have fun out there and I'll see you in game.



The Irascible Joker

So Shall it Pass

Instead of doing the back-up last night like we have stated in the forums, I gave the guys on the server some additional time last night.  I did the update this morning around 5:45 am CST and it completed at 6:15 am CST.  Personally, I do not like having to take the server down for back-ups but it definitely needs to be done so that we do not run across the same issues as we have in the past.

On another note.  We saw another individual who decided to join yesterday by the name of DarkKiller_V2.  He decided to be a little troll and eventually got banned.  This definitely seems to be a reoccurring thing on the server lately.  I guess with popularity comes the burden of trolls and those that think they can break the small little rules that the server has.  We won't tolerate it and it's easy enough to kick and ban them as we see fit.

*As for the stolen items issue we have run across...I will look into that today.  I need these issues resolved quickly!

*We had some new people join last night and I am glad to hear that they caught up with some of the members of Dog Town.  Welcome to Z-Day PvE.  Be courteous and help others and everything will be just fine.  

Finally!  The moment that most of us have been waiting for.  The COLOSSEUM event has been built and is undergoing the last few transformations and fine tuning adjustments.  It has been scheduled on the event calendar here on our website.  If you have a calendar app on your phone and you run android, it should be as simple as clicking it and adding it to your calendar so that you don't forget the event time.  I checked it out yesterday and it worked fine.  Marked on my calendar by signing into Google.  It is truly easy enough for a monkey to accomplish...or LittleRed.  ;-)

Well, that is all the information I have for you today.  You guys/gals stay safe and I'll see you in game!



The Irascible Joker

Playing by the Rules

Last night we had some people take some hits by another player.  Not only were they killed by another player but we have had some theft as well.  This server does not take kindly to those that kill or steal from other players.  Although we have not found the thief we do feel that they are still on the server.  When we find out who the thief is, and we will, you will be banned without hesitation.  If you decide to step forward and hand all items back to those players, we can overlook this and move on. The penalty is much less severe by telling the truth...I assure you.

As for the member who decided to kill people.  Well...he's already been banned but not before one of the in game admins popped off a couple rounds in him.  Good job, Jim240!

Another thing that I would like all of you to be aware of is the duplication glitch that seems to be occurring within the game.  It happens to everyone and we understand that.  It's an alpha game.  With that being said.  If the server see's you with an invalid stack, which means anything above what a "normal" stack can hold i.e.  wood = 1000 max stack, ammo = 500 max stack...you will then be notified to remove the invalid stack.  When this happens, accidentally, you need to inform the admins and server.  That way you do not pop up on the list as having an invalid stack, therefor, you are not thought to be cheating.

CHEATING IS NOT TOLERATED!


We do not want to boot people from the server and the best way to eliminate being booted is to notify the server of your invalid stack, immediately.  Secondly...DO NOT KILL OTHERS or steal their stuff. Most of the admins felt that we didn't need to say this but with having a higher population on a server it seems that it can no longer "go without saying".  Play by these simple rules and you'll be just fine.  If not, you'll be banned.

Last but not least.  We have a server shutdown that will occur tonight at 9:45 pm CST for our Monday back-up.  You will be notified prior to the shutdown but be aware that it is back-up night.  Other than that, have a wonderful day and we'll see you in game!

The Irascible Joker

Server Does Not Send All Zombies

Let's clear the air here.  Believe it or not, server doors not send all zombies after you.  The game is a zombie survival game.  Server may send some here and there but it does not send enough to kill you or break your house down to nothing.  Personally, I was on last night working on the Colosseum and had a massive horde spawn in side of it along with the outside.  I spent the next hour by myself fighting these zombies while they destroyed block after block.  I had to do repairs afterwards and the damage was extensive!  It's going to happen though regardless if you believe it is server or not. 

Go on 7 Days to Die and look at the forums.  People suggest moving every 7 days.  Have you moved?  Then you've created a heat signature in your house that zombies are attracted to.  So, next time you think of quitting the server because some zombies messed up your house a little bit, think about it again.  We all go through it and it's part of the game.  If you decide to leave...we say farewell. 

Thanks for the Support

Tonight we officially maxed out the server!  We are so happy that we have so many people wanting to join and play on our server.  We would also like to thank those that have donated money to allow this server to upgrade from 16 to 24 starting 1-16-2016.

Jim240, Nerix, and Homerdog, we thank you for your donations and we look forward to spending much more time gaming with you on Z-Day PvE.

Extending Our Internet Presence

By now, some of you know about our website.  It's been getting a few hits here and there but certainly not the publicity we believe is required.  Have no fear though, we have created a community page through Google plus to help us.  Yes!  We have extended ourselves to a social media site with our own community page.  We already have a few followers thanks to Blaze Dragon and I hope that we gain more.  Although our website has a mobile view, it may be a little hard to follow it that way.  You have to go look for updates daily, but now, if you have Google plus on your phone and you're part of the community you will get up-to-the minute updates from our site.

That's great news for everyone!

Keeping with the momentum that this server and website have managed to gain, I feel that it is only necessary to keep you posted about some important issues.

Use the forums!  They are a great source of information and not only will it help people in game, it'll help outside of the game too.

BIG NEWS!  The Colosseum build has been accepted, coordinates given to the admins, and has started as of yesterday.  No, the event will not be on Saturday.  Go to our EVENT page and click on the calendar event to get more details.  It's always a good idea.  Once the Colosseum looks like it's barreling towards the finish line I will post the event on the calendar and our Google plus community page.

EXTRA EXTRA, READ ALL ABOUT IT!

We've gained enough traffic and population that I myself feel it's time to take a leap of faith by upgrading the amount of server slots for players.  Currently we are allocated for 16 and by tonight we have raised that bar to 24!  Congratulations to all those that have been playing and making this jump possible.  Jim240 gets a little spotlight for donating the money to make this upgrade possible for the remainder of the quarter.  THANKS JIM!

Well folks...that's all for now and seeing as it's Friday, we've got some gaming to do.  I'll see you on there tonight for all the fun and zombie mayhem we can imagine.

Clearing the Air

I believe that I need to explain something. Often, most people choose a gamer tag that portrays their personality or something important in their life. Like most gamer's I have done the same thing. With that being said, I would like to explain:

The word "Irascible" for those of you that don't know, means:

i·ras·ci·ble
iˈrasəb(ə)l/

adjective
having or showing a tendency to be easily angered.

synonyms:
irritable, quick-tempered, short-tempered, hot-tempered


jok·er
ˈjōkər/

noun
a person who is fond of joking.

synonyms:
humorist, comedian, comedienne, comic, wit, clown, card, jokester


That is the understanding and meaning of my gamer tag. This tag was thought of and contemplated for quite a few hours, days even. I searched and searched and searched before I could find something that was absolutely true about me. I suppose many of you are thinking to yourselves "great...we have a hot tempered admin" or "how the hell do those do even correlate?"

I'll tell you. I truly love to make people laugh. I love hearing them laugh and having fun. That is why I run this server, why I made a PvE server. To help people, enjoy their company, and have some laughs. I think jokes and humor are medicinal, especially to those who believe their life is miserable.

On the flip side, I am not one who takes crap...from anyone. Everyone has pet peeves and I have them too. Just like all humans, we have that red button that you don't want pushed. Last night one of my buttons got pushed and then pushed again to where the "Irascible" part of my gamer tag came out, unfortunately. Those that know what happened can criticize me, I'm okay with that but that's just me.

Here’s the last little tidbit of info regarding this. Like I said, I love helping people and making people laugh. Do not take my kindness for a weakness though. Doing so is a bad idea on your part and is one step closer to pressing my red button. You can talk trash to me all day. I am fine with that...I had more than my fair share in the military.

So as with any post, there is a point. It's not "Joker's a hot-headed ass" or "he's got a few screws loose". Not by any means. The point is to be mindful of others. Not just me BUT everyone. I highly encourage everyone to laugh, have fun, joke and help people and in the end everything runs smoothly if you thank them for their help. You don't have to give them something for helping. A thank you is enough, because in the world we live in today...we rarely get the thank you's that a vast majority of us deserve.

Okay, there you have it. My rant for the day! Enjoy the game and if you have something to say please leave a comment below.

Respectfully,

The Irascible Joker

Using the Site...LIKE A BOSS!

Are you new to the internet?  I hope the hell not!  Our site is manged and organized well enough that a monkey with no knowledge could easily navigate through it.  So with that being said...I feel you should know about some of the things going on:

1.  You found the website for our server  (we are just as surprised as you are)
2.  If you don't have Google plus, you may want to get it  (post comments are done using G+)
3.  We have daily posts...almost daily and it could be important  (read them)
4.  We have a forum for all of you who really need to get some reading done
5.  Photos that will be updated as soon as we take more photos.  They are usually uploaded that night!
6.  A contact page!  Who thought we would have had that?  Well, it exists.

We've made this site with you in mind and if there is something you think needs to be on it then let us know.  We honestly cannot run a server effectively in my opinion without you getting information from us as well as us getting information from you.

Finally, THE MOST IMPORTANT thing to read right now is this line:

If you have any errors pop up in game, please write down the coordinates and the error and post them to the ERROR section in the forum.  We truly need this to make sure everyone is running smoothly.

Now, go out there and get your game on!

As True to Life as Possible

Some of you may have witnessed or even got to experience a little taste of the event that Jim240, Blaze Dragon, and myself had started on the previous Z-Day PvE server before the wipe.  We were really hoping that the event was going to take place this Saturday but due to some unfortunate circumstances we are left at square one again.  No big deal though!  I myself have considered a rebuild of this event but I am truly not in the mindset, nor do I have the desire to rebuild something that was so large.  Jim240 and Blaze Dragon have attempted to convince me but I may need a little more coaxing.  In case you hadn't seen it...here are some details.

This is a picture taken in Verona Italy.  Yes, from an old ass cell phone.  My wife's cell phone to be exact.  Experiencing this was amazing and I wanted a lot of you to have a very similar experience in game.  In case you do not go scavenging through our website...like you should be.  After all there is tons of info on here for you.  Take a look below.

If someone were to really coax me back into this build.  I commend you.  Until then, realize what we had was something that was very close to the real thing.  Would you like to see this...finished? Started again, then finished?  Let us know in the comments section.

WE WILL REBUILD!

For those of you deciding to stick around after the server wipe, I thank you.  This really is unfortunate and was certainly the last thing we wanted to do.  We have taken the issues that transpired and informed the devs of the situation.  Although we were unable to salvage all of our hard work, we shall start a new.  As my friend stated today "look at the bright side, all the loot has respawned". 

Thank you for the your time, energy, and most of all, your patience and understanding.  I look forward to seeing you in game.

Unfortunate News

It is with a heavy heart that I bring the bad news of our server.  Due to some... unforseen issues our server had to be wiped.  We have alerted the devs about the issue but the admins are now alert to what causes things like this.  The new random gen map is up.  I'll see you tomorrow evening.

We are currently experiencing issues with our server.  The company has been contacted and is aware of the situation.  We are hoping that a 12-24 hour rollback can be accomplished to salvage what is left at this point.  If not, I'd like to prepare you for the worst case scenario which is a whole complete wipe of the server.  I understand if you choose to leave after the wipe and I'm sorry that this may happen.  If you decide to join us after something devastating like this at least we can build a new Sanctuary, a better Sanctuary.

In closing I hope that the company can salvage our work and that you ask choose to stay with us.  I'll keep you posted as soon as I hear anything.

Coming Soon

The moment you've been waiting for.  A sneak peak at what the event is going to bring.  Prepare yourselves.  Craft, punch, shoot, RUN!  You will need all of those things in order to survive this new event that only the Z-Day PvE server is bringing to you.  So buckle up, you're in for one hell of a ride!

The construction has not been 100% completed but will be ready to host next Saturday at 5 pm CST just as planned.  Mark your calendars!
