Multiple suggestions : Boats and MSF-C

[Knight]

Hey gamers.

seeing that alot of people are doing suggestions, here is mine.


MSF-C

When we first added this mod during the lore wipe it added a bunch off cool stuff to the server which made for great and modern looking military looks.

Seeing that the weapons had a bad performance impact on the server , i'm suggesting we get the clothing and equipment back.
Fixes to stability/Crashes have been made over the year:

Spoiler

I'm hoping this mod gets re added for the sake of Diversity in looks , together with some of the suggestions for good civilian clothing
(ps : Cloths can not be bought in the item shop due to legal reasons)

 

Required : SQUAD MSF-C

Spoiler

Next topic : Boats.

I love fishing.
I love boats.

it's been half a year, it's time to try them again, if they cause any crashes to any users. we remove them again, Simple as.

(Just ban anyone that abuses them , no exception.)

Required : Nothing, Expansion allready has boats.

I don't see why boats shouldn't be added, from my knowledge it was only one member who had an issue with the boats and that person is now banned permanently. dayz expansion has been out for quite some time now and has been updated quite a bit too so im sure they are less buggy than what they were, i don't see any issue why not to re-enable.

Only bad thing about squad MSFC is that we suspected it was causing crashes quite a bit, but im not sure if that was the outcome or not, maybe @Whitename can confirm

+1 Would love to see more options for diversity in military clothing and equipment! Boats, i think it would open a couple of more options roleplay wise as well!

Hello,
Yes i heard about this as well, but the biggest factor in this was that it was a new mod at the time, and if my memory serves me well, it was only the guns that made people crash.

But i think a dev can give better insight then me.

Squad MSF was removed before iirc. I wouldn't mind seeing boats though.

[Earl]

Boats are cool. 

Squad MSF-C is something that I hated when it were on the server. Its not that the mod itself is bad, it is just that the squad msf-c has so many new clothing pieces that occupy the spawns for other things. There is a few cool things, but I feel there is more unneeded than needed.

Boats +1
Squad MSF-C -1

[Murdoc]

Oh, how I miss the boats ... They made the coastal area so much more attractive. Add them back, please. 

[AndreyQ]

Don't see any issue with enabling boats and should be pretty easy to do it. As for MSF-C I don't mind it getting added. If it causes crashes we can just remove it.

[Zanaan]

Boats yes, MSFC no.

Frankly the server really doesn't need more mil-sim crap in my opinion. If anything we need more civilian articles and weaponry, not more military.

[Guest]

MSFC should be given a second try just because its 2.0 has fixed various problems, also related to crashes so I pray the devs and Roland to look into it and give it another try.

A week trial would be best to gather data, if crashes were to occur again, if it causes problems like before, just remove the mod, otherwise we should keep it as the content it adds is cool and let's be honest, barely any people like running around as civvies and more as soldiers

 

As for the boats, I know they work but something keeps making them go inland after each restart so that should be looked into. Again, a 1 week trial to see how it goes, if it still behaves like before, simply remove them.

 

I just want to see some more content on this server!

[Nonplayer]

Yes for both.

As a proud ZFC member I need/want to see boats ingame they are very nice to go out fishing with. Also you can use the boats to travel to western trader easily. Regarding the MSF, if its fixed and doesnt crash im all up for it. The mod add some nice military gear to be had around.

Wouldn’t really mind either being readded, but I remember the biggest issue with boats is that at some point they were never found in the water, always somewhere inland... I thought that was the reason they were removed. 

[Roland]

Boats were removed because very few people used them and they still take away server performance like any other vehicle on the map.

MSF-C caused us huge issues in the past with broken items and server crashes, I don't think I trust it after first update in 2 years. I'd give it some time and watch comments on the Workshop page for a while to decide whether it's now stable or not.

I would suggest adding 2 to 3 to start with
, lets not forget when they were added there were a ton of them in the server, including the military boats too.

The mod has been reworked from scratch after all , a lot of people loved the mod back in the day, but it's a good idea to wait to make sure its stable.
Maybe give it a test run on the test servers first ?

However it added a shit ton of custom stuff, something that the server is currently lacking. I understand you want the server to be stable but we need more original stuff / mods added to the server. I remember how much amazing stuff we had when the lorewipe just happened. Custom locations, lore events actually inpacted the surroundings (thanks to @Watchman) and much more. Now it almost feels like you are removing more things then actually adding new content to the server. if a mod like MSF-C doesn't work you can always remove it again..

Please let the next DayZRP update be something that people are actually exited for..

[Mugin]

I don't think we need more stuff for the military LARPers, especially given the past issues caused by that mod pack. Focus on balancing the loot economy and spawn rate issues before adding more loot anyways.

As for boats, I would love to see some functioning sea vehicles added because the Vodnik was a let down.

[Dren]

I made a suggestion post about boats and was told boats were broken and that’s why they were removed and now it’s because they simply weren’t used enough and took away server performance? 
 

GIMME MY FUCKIN BOAT SO I CAN RP AS A GRIZZLED FISHERMAN JUST WAITING ON HIS NEXT BIG CATCH 

[RocJag]

Big no on boats (for now)

Big yes on Squad

Last time boats were in, they were a bit…. buggy. They would shift around after restarts and eventually falling on the shore. Then there would be no way of getting the boats back to open water without the risk of the big dead

As for Squad, I really enjoyed the content that the mod provided from the Armor to Guns. I’d like to see it added once again

5 utility boats should start spawning from next server restart.

I cannot give beans, however thank you for giving the boats a try.

i hope they won't cause any trouble now after the fixes


 

[Kerkkoh]

Being that the boats have been addressed and the poll is overwhelmingly positive in favor of MSF-C, here you go.
---
This is an official Kerkkoh™ certified suggestion thus I am proposing  @Roland to include this mod (MSF-C) within the next mod addition cycle.

No mentions of monetization on wiki page or monetization good to go
No mentions of recent crashing (NPEs reported are DayZ, not MSF-C related)
A reasonable time has passed since posting and community vote is positive >50%
