A little heads up as someone whose used sound mod for a while and has heard of other players having similar issues: If you hear an engine making a really awfully glitchy sound, that sound will crash your game in usually 7-8ish seconds. Really bizarre issue but I've found other people have had it infrequently from time to time as well. If you hear it and tab out immediately and tab back in you can entirely circumvent the crash itself

Thank you for all your years of contributions as staff. o7

To reiterate the statement I jokingly added in small text in my earlier reply: we have developed a fix for this bug of which should resolve any outstanding issues with daily rewards I would defer that question to @ Mako but my guess would be probably not unfortunately.

@ GST

In all seriousness I believe it should be fixed by a member of our development staff pending next update

Honestly I really like the takes in this post all the way around. The truth is there is busted stuff with both factions, and @ thomp62 addresses it perfectly. So I am not rambling, here is a list of items that I generally endorse: Giving lower ranks an easier and more guaranteed opportunity for lethals and slightly better weapons during federal events. Before I recieved my Staff Sgt rank a few months ago, I played as a PO and had to deal with all the nuisances that came with it. The largest nuisance was that it felt like I was entirely useless up until the 10 minute mark where then lethals could potentially be authorized. Giving lower ranks a more reasonable opportunity to perform would generally increase the entire quality of life and perception of federal events by Jr. APD. Limitations to armor under certain circumstances. Having played civ and done feds myself, getting an entire wave of hunters or striders within the first four minutes of the event starting is brutal and not really fair at all. Although I'd like to think that Sr. APD discretion is generally good, there are some that generally see a "proportionate response" as whatever it takes to win. I think a 1:2 ratio of armor versus civs is a generally fair proposal. The only thing I would personally like to see further to endorse this is perhaps is some written exceptions. The usage of RPGs and other generally effective armor penetrating blackwater gear at federal events has become significantly more common. In the cases where a certain amount of vehicles are lost, I think it should be warranted that the limit is able to be exceeded. OR (likely an unpopular take) the usage of Ifrits are evaluated for cops. As it stands right now, hunters are not very effective at all at withstanding even the basic MK1. Providing the APD the ability to pull Ifrits under written exceptions would provide a reasonable response to federal events where players are effectively utilizing really OP blackwater gear that generally makes it unwinnable for the APD. Ultimantely the entire goal is to prevent civs from being absolutely cancered by an entire wave or armored vehicles the moment the event starts, but also provide equal opportunity for APD to be able to use them appropriately when necessary situations provide. @ Noble 's post about runs. I generally have never like how federal event-centric roundtable ideas have generally been in recent years. I think that consistently ever waging war for each faction to keep them fair generally hurts the entire purpose of roundtable. The majoirty of players do not have an interest or active participation in federal events. Roundtable ideas should be about requesting ideas for content and rules that make the game fun for everyone, not just those that tend to run these events. Ultimantely they are a very end-game activity and the consistent war back and fourth on them I feel like causes a lot of really cool ideas that would otherwise benefit the representation of everyone to be neglected. One of the coolest things added to Olympus in recent times was the phones, not an increase in gold bars. That being said, I think there should be limits to how often federal events are permitted to be discussed in roundtables. The consistent need for both factions to have to put up their dukes for those events prevent a healthy flow of ideas that represent the general non-fed running or waving community. Having a limit would allow for more meaningful evaluation of those ideas before they are put up before faction leads, of which are then passed up before senior staff.

Thank you, they didn't but definitely was pretty crazy. @ xsmitherz hit me up within the first few hours letting me know I've been hacked and I couldn't believe it. No permanent damage of any sort but just sucks that I fell for it and that messege then went out to all my friends. I had to go through and send a message out to everyone afterwards telling them to disregard, even then pretty sure I missed a few since Mighty never got one. Overall kinda GG to the scammers. They're asswipes, but I'll give it to them: faking an entire Chrome window is the most unhinged clever thing I have seen in a minute. I always check the domain name so when it checked out I just assumed I was good. Just beyond crazy lol.

Hey guys. Really kind of an embarrassing post to have to be making but got rused by a phishing scam today. That being said I wanted to make a post anyways since this is by far the most clever I have ever seen, and it seems to be going around as I got it from someone within Olympus. This is how it goes. You get a message from one of your steam friends asking if you can vote on a logo they made for college. You say yes, they send you a link and you click it. Once you click it, they ask you to sign in with your steam. Since the URL is steamcommunity.com, you enter your info. One problem. It is not, they fake the entire window. After that (whether it be a bot or a person), someone or something goes through your steams friends list and sends the same scam to every single one of your friends while simultaneously blocking them to prevent you from seeing their responses and being tipped off. Here is a video of it, but wanted to put it out here so no one else is fooled the same way. Never thought I would ever be dumb enough to fall for a phishing scam but here we are. On an unrelated but really kinda sweet note (for context) I created a semi-large Gary's mod server when I was fourteen. I still have a handful of them on my friends list to this day. When I reached out to one of them to disclose it was a scam, I got this really sweet reply which kinda felt good. I fell out of touch with a lot of them, but it was kind of a silver lining to the entire situation. Anyway TLDR: Don't be stupid like me
