Post #1Hello! I have recently realised you can research the Research Kits! Facepunch may want to fix this but yeah.. What you need to do is get 2 research kits and as you go to research one of them (By a workbench) you need to hold down right shift.
-
-
confirmed!
-
sweet
-
How do we make them though?!
-
You need 20 leather and 20 low quality metal.
-
I don't know how many times i've seen in chat "Can you research a research kit?" lol
this is cool but i don't you should be able to research a research kit.
Researcheption
-
Facepunch probably has this as a test.
-
Word will get out about this. If it ends up intentional all long someone is going to be quite sad that their Research Kit trade racket isn't going to be as profitable.
-
You guys better start selling them. ;)
-
They never had value to me. It's like they're growing on trees.
-
I never seem to find them.
-
It should require like 50 paper so paper will have a use and some low quality metal
-
That is what I thought, but I do not think you are meant to know about this.
-
There's a Blueprint for research kits too
-
I have never EVER seen a blueprint for research kits?
-
I have over 400+ hrs played and i have never came across a research kit BP
-
I am the same as you, never EVER came across a BluePrint for research kits.
-
I'm wondering if this can't be used to then bypass and crafting limits a server my impose on a person, i.e. servers where c4/modern weapons crafting have been disabled.
-
That would be nice to know :P
-
if it has a recipe then its not a bug
-
Facepunch may be adding the possibility in the future but you had it "locked" until an update, and it is pretty easy to do a mistake in code. :P
-
All rcon admins can spawn a RK BP, why are you geniuses rating dumb on his post?
-
We are not all admins and cannot spawn that shit in.
-
No reason to go full on herpaderp without checking first, then ;)
Also, a simple 1 minute search would have sufficed to trivialize your 400+ hours' worth of experience in the game
-
Well, please explain why not update notes have this, and this was posted in January 2014, I would only have to go back a few updates to see.
-
Just because an admin can drop placeholder items doesn't mean that they actually exist in the game in it's intended form.
The ability to "research" research kits is plain stupid, and equivalent to asking a genie for more wishes! Obviously, a glaring error on the part of the devs. Don't depend on this being possible in the next update.
Hopefully it'll be moot in the long run as they implement "higher level workbenches" that will allow higher-end items to be "researched" without any need to have a kit, or original item.
-
Google.
Semantics.
Also this was the original quote they jumped on:
-
No, they were 100% correct. On official servers, which is the defacto baseline experience for the game, research kit blueprints do not exist. This is a fact, not semantics.
If admins want to add mods, or tweak the loot tables, then it's no longer the same game, so it's a meaningless comparison.
-
I never addressed their replies. I addressed 3lindNinja's claims, which were legitimate, but received ill-conceived bad ratings.
Also, nobody brought up the normative ideals of whether the devs should or should not implement RK blueprints. Clearly you thought it apt in your stride to cover this in your reply, which nobody had insinuated.
tl;dr - learn to read and respond to arguments
-
No, you and they are both 100% incorrect. If an item is in the asset files and bound to an itemid within the engine, then it exists. The same way the uber hatchet, uber hunting bow, invisible armor, and car exist. Simply because something is unobtainable by the average player does not negate its existence. Please discontinue stating factually incorrect "facts" in the future.
This lesson brought to you by RustyValve. Greatest and most attractive of all oxidized valves.
-
I must agree with you...you are the greatest and most attractive of all the oxidized valves.
-
MIND BLOWN!1!!!
-
Why do you need to hold down right shift?
When researching anything else you just drag the research kit over top the item when you are in range of a workbench?
-
If the research kit has a recipe that means it was meant to be researched so this is supposed to be in the game
-
In my opinion its a good idea but they should be much rarer they drop like thit at he moment and the costs to build them is a joke compared with their value!
-
For newer players they are hard to make, but for me, easy to make.
-
Wow I can't believe I used my only two research kits today, and did not even think to try using one on the other.
-
Bahaha
-
Apparently a lot of people didn't know about this.... Thanks!!!
And yes, as someone stated previously its obviously not a bug like some people call it, they are expensive to make!
-
It may have been delayed for next updates and they just had a little 'secret' thing to keep it locked.
