The best Defenders! (Updated 13.11)

I totally agree with the way game mods are now in.
Ever since I have joined this community (since April), I have been learning and getting more people involved in this modding community. But what did the devs do, they are no longer issuing the modder portrait as well. We had mod digest here and there right before I joined. In fact, I believe it stopped right after Titan Rise ended.

And I want to ask the devs, why? Its all your hard work to create a mode that is so modifiable. And was it all your work to destroy it in less than a year? I mean the new stuff are great, but I can tell you that if you cannot make backwards compatibilities work, the modding community will soon be dead and you can finally delete the mod editor for good

And I lot of my friends quitted this game because of its consistent increase in pay-to-win content (though I can not agree totally, I am still able to breath without any purchases so I say its way more balanced than some FPS game with 3 words that start with letter C). I was convincing myself that the project needs funding, and that the guerillas were made researchable was a sign of the decision makers waking up.
Then I am slapped in the face when I saw the f-ing battlepass in Zombies. Seriously? It does not give me any gold back, and it last only for a whole month. Its just changing the way I knew about the idea of zombies, which was to sit back and relax, rather than grinding, grinding, and grinding (and maybe sweating for a leaderboard which I dont really care about when BP is present). AND EVEN MORE P2W CONTENT WITH THE BP. NICE JOB. Hope you make lots of money.

What are the significant of modders now, you may ask? I wasn’t there when the mod editor was first released, but I can tell you that all I feel right now, is that it is a place for players who are tired of grinding and P2W spam to gather and relax. It is a way to make our ideas bloom and share gamemodes in our dreams to others. For the devs, the mod contents are actually owned by Gaijin and DF, as stated in the EULA. You are basically free to take ideas from us and improve your game.
So fueling the mod editor with new stuff and functions wont divert your player base (and make you lose money), but in fact it allows us modder to hold your player base longer for you to release major updates, (and purchasable content for revenue ofc).
Players are also able to test out premium content such as tanks and guns in mods (which is what I am doing from day 1 in my zombies mod - Gold order/Event/Premium weapon test fire with zombies)
So it is definitely a win-win, why ruin it with such updates that halt the new-born “business” that can help you EARN more FUNDING through indirect means?

EDIT: And it seems like i wasted an hour writing this post, only for people to treat it as garbage and ignore it. Not many people can understand the beauty of mods, thats what this reflected

One common bug that still exists:

If you pick up another gun of what you already have in your inventory, you get a nice extra mag bonus … but once you depleted all the rounds, you can’t refill/reload properly.


In this case, I picked up another MP40, and got some extra magazine, more than the typical 32/288.
But once I depleted all rounds, I couldn’t refill/reload properly. I was stuck in this mode (see picture).
Sometimes it works when I drop the gun and pick it up again. But not all the time.


Saw this post: It somewhat describing the problem

To be honest, I always found it being super weird that a free to play shooter even has a dedicated modding community to begin with.

Don’t get me wrong, I have mad respect for modders,

Counterstrike used to be a mod for Half Life,
Dota and thus League of Legends and all the many moba games came from Warcraft, the entire Battle Royal genre came from a Arma mod, not to mention that DayZ aswell created a boom for survival games back in the days…

Modders are immensely influential to game design and without them the gameming world would have much less soul today.

guess we’ll just have to get there the hard way

This happens when you get additional mags but dont fully empty them before reloading.
The box checks for the total amount of mags you have on you (even partial) and not the actual ammo for capasity.
In this case just spray a bit into the air until you are back at normal amounts of (even partial) magazins for your weapon and then resupply.

doesnt always work, however just collect as many as you want and be loaded to the hilt

So, just got connected to hardmode match with only 3 players. :clown_face: I guess this event really is designed for premade stacks only, considering what we’re celebrating here.

i see your 3 and raise you 2

now had we deserted we would’ve had a 5 minute cool down

thats one of the big factor why a penalty system will not work cuz u are punish for the wrong doing of others

in this case its the wrong doing of the game

I guess a better option would be to drop the half empty mags and get fully loaded ones always.
Not environmentally friendly, but when you fight for your life…
