Trouble recruiting survivors
Trouble recruiting survivors
Well, why every time I try to recruit new survivors, they just tell me to bugger off, even though I have power 500 and interaction 500... is there something to do with your occupation? like some one just hate soldiers? And is it possible that you ran a survivor mission but there is no survivor? And should I bring the new survivors some weapons when I do the survivor mission?

500? Those numbers ain't natural, son. Ya broke sumthin'.

Re: Trouble recruiting survivors
I modified the configuration files, bumped the stats and skills all up to 500. Well, is that the problem there? Lie what's the equation for the chance of joining you calculation?
Re: Trouble recruiting survivors
That might be problem. Chance to recruit somebody is influenced by Power, Interaction and Reputation. With power 20 and Interaction 35 I newer had problem recruiting anybody. If profession influence that as well I don't know (I am playing reporter).
There is always at last one survivor at survivor mission. You probably did not find him (make sure you located right building, sometimes its bit tricky, then look it from bottom to top plus some structures around like garage and be sure you found all). Also survivors might get killed sometimes by zombies before you get there but in that case you should be able to find dead survivor body.
I don't bring weapons to survivors but you can if you wish so. Sometimes survivors have their own weapons.

Re: Trouble recruiting survivors
It's one thing to tweak the numbers in a game to be a bit bigger than stock it's quite another to tweak the numbers completely outside of what the game is built for.
They haven't released the equation but it was implied that a skill level of 50-75 basically makes you an expert... rarely if ever fail.
I don't know what the limits in the game are but from actually playing the game a few times I haven't seen a stat above 40 and I haven't seen a skill above about 95, maybe 98.
as hruza mentioned, a stock reporter (no alterations) was good for me in recruiting people. I can't remember a single failed recruit attempt.

Yup, modding forum thingy... :D
Heya
If you are going to Mod the game that way, I suggest sticking to 50 as the upper limit for now.
50 Interaction + 50 Power = 100, so should be sufficient.
Similarly for combat skills, 50 Finesse + 50 Pistols + 50 9mm Beretta should give you everything you need...
