The summer period  has seen a decline in the number of players on the Just Cause 2 multiplayer server but that has not stopped me from adding a few new features.

The following features are for Steam Group members only. If you are not already a member go to http://steamcommunity.com/groups/gaveroid or search for and join the Gaveroid Steam Group in the Steam app.

Binoculars – Night vision binoculars with 500X zoom and a laser range finder. This is currently in beta but it should be released within the next week or so. I want to make sure it is working right as some of the camera calculations are a little complex.

Gestures – Allows you to taunt fellow players with a hand sign and some choice words. Type the following in chat:
/mf [optional text]  or /tf [optional text] or /wf [optional text]

The Scavenger Hunt is still underway. We have moved the location three times and still do not have a winner.

We hope to welcome you to another roadtrip sponsored by and hosted on Gaveroid’s Scavenger Hunt server, and designed and coordinated by our Mod, TheStuffJunky.

Sunday July 5th @ 3pm EDT

Welcome to the Gaveroid Panauja 2015. This roadtrip will pit your skills of offroad pre-runner style driving. Using Jeeps and trucks (or whatever your fancy), you will spend a lot of time using boost to maintain your balance on many uphill, on-edge cliff climbs, and drifting abilities in very sharp cornering. But, most importantly, this roadtrip will show off your skills of having
fun.

We start our adventure at the bottom of a mountain ridge south-west of desert airport 2 – this will be the most difficult leg of the roadtrip. When we reach the top of the mountain, we hook a slight left and launch off towards the radar facility. We drive up through the north-west desert for about 5km to a military base and launch our vehicles towards the small lake. We then cut across central desert for a few kilometers and reach the northern part of the desert river and cruise down the river, make a few lefts and rights, and launch our boats off at a small village in south-central desert. We then head for the swamps to cool off from the desert heat and drive through some unmarked swamp roads eventually meeting mid-east shoreline for a short break. After our break, we head through some more trees and cut westward through central desert for a ‘going for speed’ run and take a short climb up to desert airport 1. We ‘free for all’ north-east to another military base and take another small launch towards the river. Across the river, we get our vehicles and head south for another ‘free for all’-like ride to desert ship. A few more lefts, rights, jumps, and lost vehicles, we find ourselves at another village and take a big launch (near where we launched our boats) and scale another mountain cliff. At the top of the mountain, where we started, we all launch and boost as hard as we can.

You can find a map showing the route we will be taking and the vehicles we will use below:

Looking forward to seeing you all.

Sunday May 17th @ 3pm EDT

This roadtrip will pit your skills of offroad driving and 4x4ing, to speedboats in tight places, to uphill driving in the snowy reaches at Ski Resort; but, most importantly, your skills of having fun.

We start our adventure on the easy roads in the North Desert. We drive up through the North-East desert to the military base and launch our vehicles to the River for a challenging speedboat course. We cruise down the River, make a few lefts and rights, and start driving to AP2. At AP2, we take small squads of planes to the far North AP. We then drive towards Gaveroid Broadcasting Company, and then up a windy road to launch at the next AP East. We meet at the North Runway and pit our skills on an ever-more-difficult 4×4 offroad course. We then take a short drive to the farthest North Village in Ular oil country and then take boats to the Harbor just West from MHC. We drive to Ski Resort, endure a long uphill offroad battle to the military base North of Ski Resort, launch ~100 meters down landing on the slopes, and regroup at Ski Resort. We drive to Dish and have a mini ‘smash ‘em up’ and everyone will launch South out of Dish meeting on the highway. From there, we will drive an on-edge mountainside route to Casino and launch towards the Lagoon. We convene and take speedboats (or you can choose /jesus and take any vehicle) to Skull Island for a few round of Ultimate Mayhem. After everyone let their steam out, we take a few lefts and rights in more close spaces through the North Major Cities of Panau and head towards PIA. From PIA we fly to Lost Island and claim some loot. *it is optional to go to Ice Lake and have a crazy derby. Ice Lake is G=TP menu, Strange Locations, Ice Lake.
