    Blast From The Past

     

    Greetings All,

     

    As a special addition to the wonderful month of July, the Vanguard team has decided to publish a whole new post dedicated to gaining interest in games we have tried before!

    The previous teams of these games ran into some trouble however we feel with the right team these games would make an excellent addition into the expanding TAW Army.

    So keep in mind that these games may be the future of TAW so if you have any interest in any of these games or any others, fill out the Vanguard Interest Form please.

     

    It Is Time For a Blast From The Past!

    Ark Survival Evolved

     

    Summary:

     

    As a man or woman stranded naked, freezing and starving on the shores of a mysterious island called ARK, you must hunt, harvest resources, craft items, grow crops, research technologies, and build shelters to withstand the elements. Use your cunning and resources to kill or tame & breed the leviathan dinosaurs and other primeval creatures roaming the land, and team up with or prey on hundreds of other players to survive, dominate... and escape! Grind through hours and hours with friends with constant enjoyment fighting against all odds to survive and conquer your enemies. Use your instincts and more to survive as you will be tested at every moment in the game.

     

    Key Features:

     

    Tame, Train, Breed, and Ride Dinosaurs-

    Dinosaurs, Creatures, & Breeding! -- over 100+ creatures can be tamed using a challenging capture-&-affinity process, involving weakening a feral creature to knock it unconscious, and then nursing it back to health with appropriate food. Once tamed, you can issue commands to your tames, which it may follow depending on how well you’ve tamed and trained it. Tames, which can continue to level-up and consume food, can also carry Inventory and Equipment such as Armor, carry prey back to your settlement depending on their strength, and larger tames can be ridden and directly controlled! Fly a Pterodactyl over the snow-capped mountains, lift allies over enemy walls, race through the jungle with a pack of Raptors, tromp through an enemy base along a gigantic brontosaurus, or chase down prey on the back of a raging T-Rex! 

     

    Food, Water, Temperature, and Weather-

    You must eat and drink to survive, with different kinds of plants & meat having different nutritional properties, including human meat. Ensuring a supply of fresh water to your home and inventory is a pressing concern. All physical actions come at a cost of food and water, long-distance travel is fraught with subsistence peril! Inventory weight makes you move slower, and the day/night cycle along with randomized weather patterns add another layer of challenge by altering the temperature of the environment, causing you to hunger or thirst more quickly. Build a fire or shelter, and craft a large variety of customizable clothing & armors, to help protect yourself.

     

    Harvest then Build-

    By chopping down forests full of trees and mining metal and other precious resources, you can craft the parts to build massive multi-leveled structures composed of complex snap-linked parts, including ramps, beams, pillars, windows, doors, gates, remote gates, trapdoors, water pipes, faucets, generators, wires and all manner of electrical devices, and ladders among many other types. Structures have a load system to fall apart if enough support has been destroyed, so reinforcing your buildings is important. All structures and items can be painted to customize the look of your home.

     

    Tribe System-

    Create a Tribe and add your friends to it, and all your tames can be commanded by and allied to anyone in your Tribe. Your Tribe will also be able to respawn at any of your home spawn points. Promote members to Tribe Admins to reduce the burden of management. Distribute key items and pass-codes to provide access your shared village!

    Rust

     

    Summary:

     

    The only aim in Rust is to survive. To do this you will need to overcome struggles such as hunger, thirst and cold. Build a fire. Build a shelter. Kill animals for meat. Protect yourself from other players, and kill them for meat. Create alliances with other players and form a town. Plain and simple, do whatever it takes to survive.

     

    Key Features:

     

    Survive-

    Everything wants you to die. You need to find food, shelter and weapons to prevent it. Starting with food, there is a variety of animals to slaughter and devour as well as some flavorful vegetables to eat as well. Whether it be dear, wild boar, a huge bear, or a handful of pumpkins try to find whatever you can to satisfy your hunger. With thirst there are plenty of places to go to satisfy your thirst. Go to a fresh lake and bring a straw or put down a rain catcher and have jugs of water until you burst all in the comfort of your own home! Talking about homes, in Rust there are many ways to experiment with housing whether it be creating a nice but very easily raid able log house or a fully metal army camp like structure with more doors than walls and towering gates so no one can enter. However building is time consuming, many bases that won't be raided take days to farm out the resources and build so set aside a weekend with your friends and build yourself your own fortress! But every fortress needs a defense system that brings the weapons into play, use a variety of weapons ranging from a wimpy sharpened stick to a fully auto AK-47 with explosive ammo. Explore the wide variety of weapons and master each one as you fight off the constant threat of danger in the world of Rust. Watch out because around every corner could be your next enemy!

     

    Teamwork-

    If they're not your friends, they're your enemy. Rust is a tough game. It's not shameful to ask for some help, but be careful who you trust. Make friends in game or bring your own to the party and destroy others. It is always easier to survive with teammates in Rust. See the true value of each of your friends as one may be the best at shooting while all the others can sit there and watch as you crush your enemies! Keep in mind everything in Rust is a struggle for survival but with friends its a bit easier, just be careful with who you become friends with...

     

    Raid-

    The best defense is a strong offense. They can't attack you if they're dead and you've got all their stuff. Your motivation for raiding can be anything, revenge or just the want for loot, whatever it may be use a wide variety of explosives to explode, destroy, and take anything your enemies own. Raids are all focused around PvP so through your experience learn the best ways to kill your enemies and take all their stuff. Spare some or take all, whatever your needs may be raiding offers up the best chance to defeat any danger, get face to face with death and survival. It is the true test of survival. Get your friends, allies, or just a bunch of randoms and defeat your common enemies.
