Title: GMs having fun
Post by: Vindict on February 13, 2010, 01:00:34 am
Hello Dear Friendly People

about an hour ago, when I was hanging around in NCR, something happened.
I was calm enough to make a screenshot:

as you can see on the screenshot, some GM decieded to place a new workbench in NCR, which would be great if not the fact that it also blew up few people.
before this happened, I didint believe when people told me about GM abuse, but it seems quite clear now.

I know what you're going to say, and tbh I can't wait to read it. I predict something like this: "You were killed by a suicide bomber, and the workbench was just a coincidence" am i right?
others will say "wasteland is harsh, get used to it". some may say "you're guilty for standing in a crowded place in NCR, its like asking for trouble".

sorry, I keep forgeting. I thought GMs are here to improve the game. how stupid of me.

I hope this is a good joke :)

Or else ...you won't belive me, but you actually were killed by a suicide bomber :)

There is a bug with that you can "pick up" workbenches and place them on other positions. I guess someone placed bombs in it, which exploded then.


Seriously, this GM paranoia is going me on my nuts already. As soon as we see real GM abuse, we kick them in the ass. It didn't happened yet.


/Edit: I see player "Abdullah" on that screenshot. This player is known for a lot suicide bombings, and I bet he wasn't there now to craft on the workbench.

This covers the (obvious anyway) guilty party. What about the workbench? There's a recent bug that cause some fraction of people that used the workbench on a map, and died on the same map, to drop a workbench (formally it becomes an invisible inventory item once the map-placed workbench is used - this allows recipes with workbench as a tool to be crafted - and it's supposed to be removed when the player leaves the vicinity of the workbench - yet sometimes it does not work. This is also the reason for all bugs related to ability of crafting workbench-requiring items without the actual workbench). Here's another instance of a workbench left by a recently killed player: http://img689.imageshack.us/img689/3520/screen11022010211636.jpg

What do we have then? No GM abuse, that's for sure.

so thats how it works!
i was wondering how those workbenches multiply in the garage
shame it works only on this same map ;/ would carry my workbench to my tent^^

SuGGESTION: maybe temporarly disable crafting without using workbench if it causes problems ? (better then having to despawn the workbenches ...

Today some mysterious stranger was shooting at us. Without any explanation. It was while  we were making an ambush for enemy gang.

That person was appearing and shooting at us. I dont have any screenshots to prove it. Just my word. You can belive me or not. I dont care about punishment for that GM. It was just unfair, but i can live with that.

Of course maybe im wrong and it was a player controling that "mysterious stranger" npc. New kind of slave which wasnt typed in changelog.

"I see nothing in that screenshot." Is all you will get when you report a GM.

Yeah, Lena. Tell me what you see on that screenshot except some people standing around. The fuck, I could go to NCR now, make a screenshot and post here "GM abuse!". That's bullshit, don't try to be smart.

About that robe stuff, I have no information.

Solar youre quite a troll, aren't you?

Now I got killed by some invisible force in NCR. I wonder who made the guards lose and which gm summoned a BOS npc to kill me earlier in NCR.
Bad, bad false accusation as always, yeah. Shiny gm abusers. No wonder no one wants to play this game as an RPG, how can they with such pricks.

Someone will come and tell that logs show nothing, as always. It may be fun, as long as you have the possibility to shoot back...

this is fuc... quite sad... if something goes wrong, easiest is to say aimbots, hackers, gm's abuse! get real... if GM want's to abuse You I'm sure he/she will do that in way You never get that was GM, second thing, there are logs and it is seen if GM do something like this.

And yeah, logs says nothing, cause nothing is really happend except player kill player... it is like a guy with 1 endurance, too low perception maybe or too much coffee?

Now tell me, who was that Mysterius Stranger guy? Why did he shoot at us?  If you need more screenshots - no problem. Luckily my friends were making them. I have nothing to any specific GM. Just tell me what was that for? We tried to speak with that appearing guy but we didnt get any response.
