ReplyDeletemaybe the infected are santa and his reindeers
ReplyDeletethis is what i want
DeleteWhat's wrong with this new Mission from Fort Pastor, The Gold Star mission, it doesn't even show up on the map anywhere?
ReplyDeleteYes! I knew i was right,got this mission too, but it does not show up neither on the map or the wiki page
DeleteIt's a glitch mission in which you have to search the whole map of DF... LMAO
Deletemy gm runs out on the 20th -__- will hopefully probably be able to buy it for another month tho ^.^
ReplyDeleteuh oh . The halloween bosses were impossibly strong .... hopefully the Christmas ones aren't that strong as well !
ReplyDeleteWell the pumpkin head was pretty easy to bag, but slenderman was very tough!
DeleteDear Admin Pwn, It would be very nice of you if you could please send us a preview of the new weapons that there is to come. Many of us may want to get stat resets on Christmas and It would be a great help if you can send us a preview so we could know what weapons we would want in the future.
ReplyDeleteSpam This Comment if You Agree~~!
You are doing a great job, Neil :-). I started playing again and I am having a lot of fun! I can't wait to see what's next!

I'm glad there will be these bosses again. I missed out on the halloween. I wish i'd get good loot. Anyways keep up the good work Admin Pwn.
ReplyDeleteThere is a MUCH NEEDED UPDATE .... AdminPwn has to improve the loot quality of the Bosses ( horrible loot being earned) and of course ... if we loot a Present , after using a ton of ammo , the loot has to be worth something really nice .... i got a dead child from the ToT -.-
ReplyDeleteMega Titan could be wearing less cloth. If it mutated from a normal sized human being, the cloth could not have stretched so much as to cover its entire back.
ReplyDeleteCosmethics.DNSL.
DeleteLOL hate to tell you this Dorothy, but you ain't in the Dead Frontier Forums' I&S section anymore. Suggesting things on the blog that are DNSL in the forums-- that's fair game. =D
DeleteDoes take more hits to kill enemies when other players afk in the same map? Is it part of the game mechanism or a bug?
ReplyDeleteThe max skill for weapons is 110 .... but after Leonoardothrash did a 220 lvl stat reset , the max skill was 120 ..... does that mean the new weapons will require 120 skill ? That will be very nice .
ReplyDeleteBtw here are some updates ... PLZ admin incorporate them
1.) Missions on Interiors . You listened to me about missions on Mother , titan , GS etc but what about interior missions ? U know ... giving some packages etc ^_^
2.) Blacksmith or something , to increase the durability of the armour , 15k for 35 more db then 20k for 45 more db .
3.)The zombies hp in percentage below the mini-map ... and the option whether to put that ( in the menu ) .
Why ? Cause i wanna know whether a brute is about to explode , and whether a boss is gonna die .
4.) A way to ' sharpen ' blades ... BLADES only ! Sharpening it makes the blade do like 4-8 more dmg .... cause a crit hit does 5 times as dmg ( actually its 4.1818181818 ..... ) so crit it does 20-40 more dmg extra
5.) Add new areas . I mean the map is very nice , but its a little redundant :) Add a GRAVEYARD XD With the graves being loot-able or something ,
6.) Improved loot .... when looting off X-mas bosses
( the ToT from using like 13k ammo ... opened to give a dead body or candy ( MOSTLY candy ) . I mean these are UN-LOOT-ABLE but why not costly unlootables ? Not some stupid dead child XD
So improve the loot , when killing a titan or black titan ... in the black zone .... DeadExposure got some really nub stuff which is not supposed to be there in the ENDZONE .
Btw you said you are making clothing and all .... new armour is ok , new weapons ( which require 120 skill ) is awesome ... but new clothing ? What clothing is
there ? Can you please give a preview like you did of Interiors ? Not ALL , but some ... like 5 new weps and clothing and armour ^_^
These are all the updates I can think of , Im satisfied with DF ^_^ Been playing since 2D and I haven't complained about it being very slow in updates
( but i did get bored once )
some pretty interesting ideas titanus (although you've been bringing up some of them for a long time XD) the whole sharpening of blades will make any blunts pretty much useless compared to a blade of equal or even lower level in some cases. and if you start requesting a blacksmith-like thing to improve armor, eventually people are gonna start shouting things like "I WANTZ A CRAFTIN SYSTEM! GIMME NOW!" anyway, other than those, some pretty cool ideas.
Deleteyeh but the whole crafting system, it should no t be permanent, like 15k to give an exterminator reactive 0 more durability but as a bonus so once you loose 40 durability on the armour you cant get it back by fixing it only by paying another 15k, well maybe cheaper. and the engineers should be able to do that. like if the item is fixed to 100% you can add 10% by making an engie fix it, or else all armours would become upgraded meaning that "upgrade" would be the new standard.
DeleteBtw hopefully these new bosses wont be so powerful . The Halloween bosses were Major Powers and I dont want to fight creatures as powerful as that again . I can handle them both , but the ammo required is enormous . The Black-titan , Slenderman are 2 zombies who are considered Major Powers and I will run a mile rather than face them in the EZ 0.0
ReplyDeletelol im not such a coward ... really ;) But its extremely hard to fight the boss AND tons of tendrils and spiders -.- And the fact that the bosses have 100k hp and the Black titan is fast as a wraith and the slenderman does a 1-hit kill
Right on. The bosses I don't mind so much. Don't get me wrong they are very challenging but the secondary aggro is ridiculous and makes it almost impossible. On more than one occasion I have had to run out of the area while fighting a low level mother due to being mobbed by about 30 tendrils and spiders. I hate that $H1T!
Delete"Be able to hunt two brand new types of limited edition infected"
ReplyDeleteWhich are?
@ragedeath : Thanks ^_^ Ya i know its been a long time , but i didnt know about that .... hmm . So the blacksmith idea is bad . Well scrap that . But the armour idea is good right ? ( increasing db )
ReplyDelete@MrAwesomeLuis : You'e made many grammatical errors which made it hard to understand ... but i understood what you said XD Ya thats nice , but unnecessary .
@Dr.Pootang : Indeed . Thats why im eager to know about the new weps , and thats why I want increased db on armour along with hp of zeds shown ^_^
@TipexMax : The last time he said that ( Halloween ) it turned out they were bosses ( and extremely powerful ones too ! ) So its obvious the next 2 rare types of infected are bosses as well ....
1.) They are rare
2.) They drop loot
3.) Limited edition ( sounds like they are toys XD ) ... so who would want to hunt weak but new zeds when you can hunt new bosses ^_^
Admin dont make the bosses overkill ..... even the overkill Gau is having trouble taking it down o.o
well, taking a little bit from what luis was saying, maybe engineers can boost the total db of armor until it is damaged. What i mean is, say an armor has 80 db, you can pay an engineer extra money to increase it to maybe 100 or so(nothing too overpowered) until it is damaged enough to go back to normal. just trying to think of a way to have your idea not be overpowered, but still useful.
DeleteI liked the new updates, but with the slenderman i got pretty bad lag, what can be described as even "hiccuping" from my dusk mag. After the Halloween event the lag continued. Now even on the lowest quality settings I get frame rate drops, pauses, and hiccups from high aggro, but even more so from the bosses, a lot from the flaming GS and wraiths.
ReplyDeleteIt's a bummer but nothing has changed with my laptop, I ran tests and even have a boost program to shut down unused applications while game is running. It's a couple years old but it never had problems running DF until Halloween this year. I'm not gonna be getting a new one any time soon, but I see something about fixing frame rates for older or slower PCs in the list of updates. Just pointing out that it's working worse for me now, not better. I already stopped playing another game this year because of lag with bosses and chose DF over it because it ran better. Now it's not the case. Kinda bums me out.
there is a way . Go to Start and type in the menu Windows System Settings or something .... go to settings and press E until you arrive to Windows Event Log .... uncheck the box and restart the comp . My comp was lagging really badly ( even in Fullscreen) and after doing this I used Bandicam and still did not lag .... and I was not using fullscreen as well ^_^
Delete( a way to remove lag is to go Fullscreen by pressing F4 ... if you want to go to menu without removing fullscreen just press F1 )
Why not improve the game overall?
ReplyDeleteIts okay just add some weapons that are already done. the rest will leave to this:
1.Add a luck proficiency. (increased loot quality/more "?" places)
2.Add something "special" to the Melee attacks.
(i noticed that the firing button is both left and right mouse button) Change the right mouse button to a (heavy attack) resulting in...
KNIVES or light weps:left Click=normal attack=1.5sec
right Click=Heavy attack=2sec (X1.5dmg)
Blunt or heavy weps:leftClick=normal attack=2sec
RightClick=Heavy attack=3sec (X1.8dmg)
(heavy attack multiplieraffects both normal and crit)
3.Add special effects make it a bit colorful cause its a bit dull. much like an RPG game with RPG elements. Like Slash effects. when you attack with your melee for example:
Baseball bat = brown slash effect
Katana = White slash effect
Corpse crusher = red slash effect
4. please improve the walking and Running animation. because the player looks so stupid running/walking with his hands down...much like a robot.
5. ADD Fast Travel checkpoints. Well its a great idea cause of the big map you just added. but set it up strategically on each zone like one for southest zone one for west zone one for north zone one for northwest. BUT NOT IN OR NEAR EZ (end zone) black part of map.
6. add barricades so that it will be effective for
people who cant make a personal outpost. and also to hold of hordes of infected.
the rest of the weps 1/2 or 1/4 of them will be added later 2013. but please read this. I would also like to help you but im pretty full on my hands here.....life and all hehe. keep up the great work.
1. No, this would cause many problems and be very OP
Delete2. Would be interesting
3. No, DNSL
4. I would like to see that, but DNSL none-the-less
5. DNSL
6. No, that would make nails and wooden planks redundant
My summary
Just please stop posting this, this is not a place for suggestions, that would be the I&S section of the forums, and most of these are DNSL.
DNSL?
Deleteif you would like me to stop take me to the suggestion forum...Give me the link.
dnsl=do not suggest list. a lot of these things you've suggested are not going to be put in(admin said this on a post in the forums) although, if you would like to go to a better place of suggesting things go to the meeting hall in an outpost and scroll down until you see "ideas and suggestions". hope this helps.
DeleteHi, I dont know if someone do this question but...
ReplyDeleteYou have in your plans, someday, we can drive a car, trucks, M1 Brams, motocircles, etc... ?
@Marcelo : NO . Srry if I seem harsh , but that idea is useless ..... what is the point of cars when they make the game very easy ? Just rev up ur vehicle and mow down zeds .... nope . That will unbalance the game and make it much less challenging .
ReplyDelete@rairaffaele :
1.) Luck ? Or more loot spots ? Well im satisfied / I went to the new EZ and my inv ( im a lvl 43 so i have a big inv , 2nd largest ... a only the lvl 50 has the largest inv ) and it got filled in like half a hr with lvl 50 food and costly rifle ammo ^_^
I even looted a CK 97B :) So theres no need for more looting spots
2.) I kinda like that idea ... but whats the use ? leave melee the way it is .
3 & 4.) Who needs slash effects and moving arms .... the games ok . Updates are needed , not new effects . New Updates are gonna bring in players , not slash effects .
5.) Thats nice for nubs ( low lvls ) and i like the way you made it ( not in the EZ or even close to it ... otherwise peeps will use it to go close to EZ without effort ) . I approve of that ^_^
6.) Barricadings make personal outposts ( PO's ... lol . Po the Panda ( Kung Fu Panda ) will be proud of this XD )
.... Barricading makes PO's and some building safe . Why the hell do you want to keep the infected inside ? one ; The infected will break it . Proof : I stayed inside a PO for too long ( almost 2 days ) and it was under attck , zeds got in .
The already-built PO would be nice for low-lvl peeps who dont have much inv space , but it'll make barricading obsolete
Why in the name of AdminPwn is everyone wanting to add vehicles ???
ReplyDeleteBtw srry if im contradictory ... but add N-5 zombies ,
Btw for those who dont know , N-5 carriers aren't like the mindless zombies but smarter .... smart enough to use weapons ^_^
N-5 zombies in Nastya ( RARE ... nubs in Nastya barely can fight a mob ... its like they have a compulsion to get 10 hits from every zed they hit once XD )
1.) Zed with 25 endurance , wielding a pen knife
2.) Zed with 45 endu , kevlar vest ( dmged ) and a nice nail bat .
3.) ( strongest ) Zed with 70 endu , sn-42 and a crowbar .
Btw ; no pistols . Nubs will be killed easily that way or something . Btw these zeds still pause then hit like other zeds so you CAN dodge them :)
* The N-5 zeds are the same in Doggs except with 20 endurance more and 1 armour above *
( 1 armour above means a Reactive SLX instead of a Sn-42 )
N-5 in FP and P13
1.) Zed with 70 endurance and scratched Exterm Reactive XT and a machete .
2.) Zed with 100 endu and a Exterm Reactive ( dmged ) and a machete
3.) Zed with 124 endurance and a corpse armour
( scratched ) and a machete .
4.)Zed with 124 endu and a Exterm Reactive XT with a Sabre .
Btw can you release these zombies ? Just randomly dispose them over the Inner City ? They wont be too powerful since you can dodge them and they will be fun to kill . They look like normal players , except bloody and Zombie is written over their head in red ( like a person having PvP like you )
Btw any ideas for new zombies ?
When Admin is releasing new weps he is gonna be releasing weps which require 120 skill . Cause the max skill 1-2 months before was 110 ( nodachi , vulcan etc ) but now its 120 :)
ReplyDeleteWhich obviously means there are gonna be stronger weps which require 120 skill ^_^
Btw did someone increase the dmg ? The Chicago Typewriter did 7.4 dmg but now its 7.5 ( lol thats such a big increase in dmg XD )
Btw new zombies :
N-5 zeds ( randomly scattered through-out the Inner City ... they look just like peeps in MP but zombie is written in red ( the persons name is in green right ? And when u and that person are PvP'ing that persons name is in red ... ))
Irradiated Flaming Zombie : Its funny .... there are flamers who are flaming charred zombies but no flaming irradiated zombies ? Irradiated zombies are zeds who got exposure to radiation ... so why cant they become flamers ?
Id like a irradiated flaming zombie ^_^
URGENT : Which idiot changed the names of Brute to bloat and bloat to brute -.- !?!?
Im wondering when the hell is there a small bloat ( the zombies who vomit stuff ) and how can they explode !
And then I see ... the brute is a vomiting zed . Plz guys , in the missions its been referred as the vomiting zeds as bloats and exploding zeds as brutes . KEEP IT THAT WAY !!!
I've been reading some ideas and I like the idea of
ReplyDelete' home-made weapons ' that is , you collect some stuff looted from the Inner City and you piece them all together
some ideas have been given
#1 gunpowder + firecracker + PVC pipe + lighter + nails= pipe bomb
#2 any knife + broken broom/mop/shovel (any wooden pole) + duct tape=makeshift spear
#3 empty wine bottle (consumed wine) + gasoline + foam cup + rag + lighter= napalm Molotov
#4 mousetrap + shotgun shells + nail + wire + stakes = shrapnel mine
Now some are nice - #1 and #2 but the rest .... not that much :) My idea is
hammer + nails + baseball bat = nail bat ^_^
( slightly weaker than real nail bat )
There is another idea ... pets . dogs , horses and even pet zombies have been suggested . I like the idea of having a pet black-titan pwning everyone XD
But no . Admin should add between female zombies to bones etc .
@titanus
ReplyDeleteyeah, those are some interesting ideas, unfortunately it was already said on the forums that things like pets wouldnt make much sense and zombies with weapons would be very unbalanced. and im not sure about the crafting thing, although im sure its been suggested thousands of times. if they havent said anything in regards to crafting, im sure there is a good reason.
pet zombies?okay forget what i said before, people watch to much zombie shows
ReplyDeleteim sure the christmas event is gonna be cool, i just hope im not so obsessed with other games i'll be getting on christmas that i will forget about this...
ReplyDelete@Ragedeath and @MrAwesomeLuis : Those are not my ideas , those are OTHERS ideas . Which i found funny ( luv the pet one XD )
ReplyDeleteBtw what about the ' home-made ' weapons ?
gunpowder + firecracker + PVC pipe + lighter + nails = pipe bomb .
That is a good idea isn't it ? And hammer + nails + baseball bat = nail bat ?
Those ideas are very nice , and they deserve to be put in
( dont really like the crafting one but
Hammer + Nails + Baseball bat = Nail bat
ReplyDeleteKnife + wooden pole + duct tape = Make-shift spear
mousetrap + shotty shells + nail + wire + stakes = shrapnel mine
I like the idea of that . Of course , non-engineers can do a few stuff ( they cant create a shrapnel mine for example ) while lvl 5 engineers can do certain stuff and lvl 45 engineers can do much more stuff .
I like this idea cause 1.) This wont ruin the market
( i think XD ) and of course ... new weapons ^_^
I like the idea of setting up traps for zombies and watching them run into it XD
Of course , the game shouldn't go too much into this ... otherwise we'll soon have mounted guns and everything :) But creating a shrapnel mine is ok . IT wont do much dmg ( as much dmg as HK-69 ) and it slightly slows down the zombies . ( like -5 or -10 agility for them ) .
Of course , the thing that complicates this is ... pvp . Shrapnel mine against a survivor is nice ;) but slowing him/her down ? Btw it'll be funny , having 10 shrapnel mines explode .... -5 X 10 = -50 so someone having 25 agility will have -25 agility XD
So ya ... thats how it complicates matters . Shrapnel mines should slow down ONLY zeds then ^_^ ( some zeds wont even feel it ... black titan for instance XD )
So i like that idea a lot . Plz admin incorporate these ideas
1.) Missions on interiors ( there are NO missions on interiors .... why dont you make a mission where you go loot a hard disk from a computer in a building )
2.) Home-made weapons
3.) Zombies hp shown in percentages below the mini-map . And there should be a option whether to show it or not .

Delete1)Nice idea.
Delete2)The Last Stand Dead Zone.
3)No.
Only problem with most of the ideas that people wish to incorporate for DF is this:
ReplyDeleteTime.
If the game were to have all of the suggestions that seemed remotely good for the game, it would be around 5 or 6 years from now. Sad thing is, only 3 of those updates would occur.
Game programming takes time and effort. All that time and effort spent on making things fun for the community instead of making the programmers' wallets fatter; it's just not what's on the drawing board at the moment.
Dead Frontier has *hopefully* a history to be made ahead from now.
Honestly, there have been only 2 suggestions I've ever liked.
1) Interior missions
2) A zombie survival based arena
ok, interior missions? i think it can be a pretty cool idea. vehicles are NOT gonna happen. and i feel like being able to craft weapons would make being an engineer kinda overpowered compared to other service classes and could affect the market in a bad way(and the fact that i dont really think it would work for df). i dont really want an hp bar, it makes the game a bit more interesting when you dont know exactly when a zombie's gonna go down.
ReplyDelete@Ragedeath : i know the 2nd idea makes engineers overpowered and ruins the balance of the productive classes ( technically , the farmer is more better than the scientist :) )
DeleteAnyways I just got a new idea ... why not put bosses during OA's ?
1.) Nastya : 2-3 flamers at once , or just a single titan
2.) Doggs : 5 flamers at once or 2 titans or a flaming titan or mother or flaming mother
3.) P13 : wraith , gs , flaming mother , flaming titan , 2-3 titans ...
4.) FP : Flaming wraith , FGS , GS , 2 F.Titans
or even the Black Titan XD
that'll be really nice . The peeps in p13 are weaker ( AVERAGE ! ) than the peeps in FP . So the bosses during OA should be stronger in FP than in P13 .
@Ragedeath : No one sane wants vehicles . This game is supposed to be challenging ( but you can use vehicles , e.g : Scotty's motorcycle and Betsy the Tank XD ( wonder why a hardened Commander named it Betsy XD ... ) )
But no .
adding a titan at nastyas would be hell for newbies
DeleteHe's right,bosses during OA?Do you want all the peoples who use OA and guards to level up to die and never be able to level up?
Delete@Daniel Warren : If Admin wanted to fatten his wallet he would have made this game only for the paying community ( that is , updates which only the paying community can use ) and throw in some updates for the non-payers so they hopefully might become one of the paying-community .
ReplyDeleteAdmin is not at all like that >:(
Anyways does anyone like the home-made weps idea !?!?
Mega Dragon's reply " The Last Stand Dead Zone. " for that idea ( home-made weps ) does not tell whether he likes it or not .
And btw , ANYONE can put together a makeshift spear ... so engineers wont become overpowered :)
( yes i really want this idea incorporated ) .
Btw on VERY IMPORTANT THING : Admin , you continue on your efforts to bring the system from TCP to UDP to make the MP system better ( MP lag is annoying , zombies can take 45 rounds of fm mitrail and still live , when they should be dead by 4 rounds ) . So Admin , continue on the system change and new stuff ^_^
did you done fixing security error issues???
ReplyDeleteServers are currently on maintenance mode. Please improve boss loot, i got a zylon vest from a wraith? Seriously? OAs should be more common around FP. And please fix the Unity errors i keep getting, i have tried everything but it didnt get fixed.
ReplyDeleteGod I love you.. hope to eat your brain at some point.. thanks for all your hard work.. hope you are making a killing in real world loot. You should join us in boss hunting from time to time to claim some love.
ReplyDeleteServer maintenance?
ReplyDeleteIs 503 a new boss???
ReplyDeleteHow i wish this errors won't happen in Christmas chaos
ReplyDeletequick trips between the outpost that already are visited.....
ReplyDeleteAdmin, it seems you don't even update DF anymore, you hardly do anything, and aren't even there. I admit, at one point you was "supportive", but now you just let the game go to crap, after awhile DF will die, and when that happens, you'll know why. If you ever try to make another game, keep it updated, support the community, and put in more work, although it is "your" game, you treat the people who play it, like crap, and you act as if you don't care about DF.
