Unknown, The time has come....Exexute Order 66

Have you wanted to have a better RP experience In Takistan Life? Here is some advice to creating a less toxic time when interacting with other players. Don't be toxic, don't be that guy finding loop holes In rules or spawn camping, nothing makes people more aggravated than a person with an RPG at Indi spawn. Try not to abuse armor or border-line marshal law/wartime vehicles like strykers or bmps. Avoid pulling out heavy weapons unless someone is a big problem, for example try to only use hinds or bmps when Indi's pull out a t-34 or camp cpa in buildings. Try to use them as plan C. Try to communicate effectively with others, for example when at CPA try to get through as an indi acting like a civi and watch the memes that pursue. Be a nice and helpful person, no explanation needed. If you enjoyed these tips drop a thumbs up and a comment on how you could improve hostilities in Takistan.

The VIP Supporter So while playing,i noticed that there was the standart SUPPORTER and the VIP SUPPORTER,when i found out about that i thought "Oh okay,they must be the same so yeah cool." But then one day i found out about the differences between them and how the VIP Supporter equipment is way more powerfull and superior than what the standart supporter has access to,of course it makes sense that the VIP Supporter should have better equipment than the standart one but,in my opinion their weapons and gear are VERY OP when compared to standart equipment. THE VIP SUPPORTERS and their gear. So some of the people that paid the price to receive the VIP,aren't very nice to other players,they feel like they're WAY superior than the normal players of the ARMA 2 TLX COMMUNITY and don't really care about playing in the server how it was meant to be,most of the times they just join to kill insurgents or whoever is considered a threat for them.I know that basicly every each of them are old players that might have lost interest in doing what they already did for a LONG Time but i think that some of them shouldn't be like that. And when they do start killing it's just devastating because the damage of what the weapons they carry is immensively powerfull like the Lock On Anti Tank rocket launchers such as the Metis or the Javelin,I do know that the Rocket launchers i mentioned uses rockets that occupies a LOT OF SPACE in their inventory but some of them do not only carry those Overpowered rocket launchers,but also AS50s (That's what i've seen most of the VIP Supporters use:AS50 with a lock on anti tank rocket launcher) and most of the times these anti material sniper rifles have Thermal scopes that makes it more powerfull.So it's not only a 50 CAL but they also have thermal scopes. I'm not saying that they should be removed since most of the people who owns the VIP SUPPORTER Bought it with their own money and have the right to have what they paid for,but i think that the prices should be higher for the ammunition.Since most of them are people that already have TONS and TONS of dollars in their bank accounts, i'm assuming that it wouldn't be such a HUGE problem for them (I'm just assuming please don't judge me.)But when they buy their ammo again they will think a little more before buying it. Of course this is just my opinion and suggestion,everyone has their own opinion about something. Also if the person reading this has VIP Supporter please do not get offended by what i'm saying here,it's just what i think.Of course some people that owns it aren't like that. If you do like it i would appreciate a LIKE !

Organized is an understatement!

There could be like a cap zone style thing at all the border checkpoints, but it takes longer to cap, say you have to stay inside the CP for 5 minutes, and once capped then indeps can operate the barriers. If the indeps leave the CP for longer than a certain amount of time then it returns to OPFOR/BLUFOR controls, this would also incentivize indeps to actually try and control the CP since most of the time they are just sniping it. OPFOR/BLUFOR can also retake the zone by killing all indeps.

Arma 2 is a dying game u have people that return to it for nostalgia sake but they are not permanent players growing population right now would be very hard

Indies are actually more organized now that ever...

Finally a post without that big image. Good points my goy. You seem to want to help out the community and have made some good threads so far. One of the best things to have is a good attitude and don't get too mad, you'll make plenty of friendos and have a great time.

lol, so true mate.

Iv lost count of how many iv taken out in those conditions. A tank with the sky behind it on a hill sticks out like dogs bollocks.

Probably because a lot of Opfor players are cocky and stay in the open woth Tunguskas instead of playing smart and holding avenues of approach to cap points

SlavNation is a group of hard-bass individuals who originate from the city of Chelyabinsk in Russia. The group grew up as young Gopniks who only ate borscht and lived selling rousty shed tools and pumpernickel bread. Like true slavs the group joined the Russian military and are now stationed in Takistan. The gang initiation consists of how many vodka bottles you can drink before you pass out, can you properly squat and can you produce some catchy hard-bass.

Teamwork, that's how the faction is supposed to be played. Join SoS if you're a good indie player, we are very organized

Cap zones, kill blufor. It ain't hard

This is pointless. It isn't hard for indies to take down strykers,humvees or even an LAV. Yes I have access to VIP shop, but I killed nearly as many blufor with regular vehicles, so you all need to stop complaining. Insurgents are meant to have less and weaker armour, but the way it balanced, is by Insurgents having "less rules" because they are just terrorists. We are supposed to hide in buildings with an RPG, or flank the Stryker with 2 RPGs, Insurgents are not geared to take on Blufor head on, and they aren't meant to be. Ever. All this comes from a player who plays a lot of blufor and a lot of insurgent. So to everyone who keeps on complaining, nothing will change. so git gut scrubs.

That's a problem with Op4 and Blu4 tho They don't care about Roleplay (most of them anyway) and they act like this is domination and anything with a gun should and will be shot without a word. I mean, If I knew indeps were trying to roleplay with me, I would happily roleplay back but i'm forced to KOS because indeps do the same thing. Shame. I'd love to roleplay, but it's difficult when everyone refuses to.

Honestly, VIP weapons aren't that much better to what's already available to other factions. The only weapon I'd really consider "OP" is the metis because it's insta lockon 2k+ range. But that's about it and most people don't even like thermal scopes. If you were around during the DNICE days where we got 1 mil paychecks+100k, I'd understand where you're from.

There’s already an arma 3 server are you alright

Totally agree

CONVOY So since the ARMA 2 TLX Server nothing happens much instead of:VDMs,RDMs people asking for comp etc...I'm suggesting that from time to time OPFOR or BLUFOR could make Convoys.There would be 2 types of Convoys,the standart convoy and the High Value Convoy. Basic Convoy 2 or 3 KAMAZ or MTVR(utility,repair) 2 Armed UAZ or humvee The basic Convoy would be transporting low-medium tier LOOT such as:pistols,submachine guns,medium-low price ores,ammunition or supplies too.The KAMAZ or MTVR would be in the middle between the armed UAZs,there would also be a 10 metre space between each vehicle. Now,the High Value Convoy would transport would be transporting on its gear powerfull and dangerous thing such as explosive devices,RPGs,assault rifles,sniper rifles or high value ores for example:diamonds or platinum.So since it`s transporting high value items inside it`s gear or TRUNK it should be very well protected. High Value Convoy 2,3 or 4 KAMAZ or MTVR(Utility,repair,ammunition) 3 or 2 armed UAZs or humvees. 1 Armored vehicle. So,these convoys would be like a event that can be lead by a group of players but of course in order to actually form a convoy "event" the group would have to ask for a staff member that is currently ONLINE at that moment for permission to do it,and if the people making the convoy wish to make it go through BLUFOR or OPFOR territory they would obviously have to ask the faction that controls that territory. The way it would work is that the faction doing the convoy would announce in GLOBAL CHAT for all the players that are currently in the server when they start moving,the convoy would have a path set by the faction,the path would be marked by putting black dots on the map,On the way,armed civilians or insurgents could set an ambush to eliminate the drivers and the escord and if they suceed by doing that,they may take the loot located inside the gear or trunk on the KAMAZ(which in case of the BLUFOR the MTVR) A couple hours ago (when this post was posted)me and some people playing as OPFOR did a convoy with admin authorization,it had 2 KAMAZ [Ammunition and Repair] filled with weapons and explosive devices,and it was being escorted by a BMP-2.Some time later when we passed through Checkpoint Delta and went into BLUFOR territory (also with authorization) We got ambushed after a couple minutes by some insurgents with a CDK tag on their names,they started firing explosive ordinances at our direction missing the trucks and barely damaging the BMP-2 we then went to go hunt for them leaving both trucks to be guarded by the BMP-2.Some time later we noticed that both trucks were on fire but the BMP-2 was perfectly FINE as if the insurgents shot at the trucks on purpouse just to destroy the loot (there was like 3 million worth of loot inside those trucks),we later found them and neutralised them but the convoy was totally ruined.So there are some bad things about making these convoys. Also the Trucks should always be unlocked and the ones who plan to intercept the convoy. Also if you like it remember to leave a like!

No need for anything to be balanced, it should be Blufor is the most powerful, Opfor should be second most powerful, the indep.

Scanning the mountains is something we do a lot now, however, unlike the other fortifications, the camo nets cannot be moved once bought. I've spent like 10 minutes looking for the interaction menu with them, resetting TLX keys and all and they are un-interactable, so it would be nice if they were added to CPA by default. Also maybe add a fortification shop to CPA so we don't have to back and forth since OPFOR base is so far from CPA?

I don't know the point of this thread. If you want to say, that there are fewer people in civs than in any other faction, I will agree, but that's caused by current situation of server, where everyone has access to money, and being last TL server in arma 2, a lot of people (some times including me) come here for specific and unique pvp, where economics are combined with overall teamwork etc.

This is really just a duplicate thread of all the current ones asking for the same thing, and they're all from newer players who have come from more RP friendly servers I've noticed. -1

These threads have become so fucking pointless.

FREE BUT LIMITED VEHICLES So i'm suggesting that OPFOR and BLUFOR vehicles should be FREE for both sides during WAR. But there would be a limited amount of vehicles so they can be used wisely by both forces agaisn't each other during a battle and not just spam jets or helicopters or ground vehicles etc.I do not really know how far can ARMA 2 OA Be modified but if this is a possibility it would be nice because money wouldn't actually matter when fighting instead, the people who are fighting agaisn't each other.The players would have to think a lot to make a decision if they should use it or save it for later in the WAR. Also most times, the people in each side tend to waste a LOT more money than what they get for winning a war which is 4 million. Forward Operating Base My another suggestion is that Forward Operating Bases A.K.A FOBs should be allowed to be made during WAR Time but not PEACE Time.They would be made by using the barricades that are available to both forces.It would be used as a temporary base for when the Friendly Forces (Depending on which side you are in if you are OPFOR or BLUFOR) start pushing deeper into the enemy territory. These FOBs should be big enough to fit at least one helicopter and 3 or 2 HMMWVs (In case of the OPFOR 2 or 3 UAZs or Military Off Roads.)They should also have supplies such as Medical Supplies,small or large repair kits and gas tanks. The Main base may only be used as a spawn point or to get vehicles or supplies. These Forward Operating Bases may not be positioned near CAPTURE POINTS neither ENEMY BASEs.And they should not be marked on the map because the enemy might see it and fire artillery at that exact location destroying the entire FOB and the individuals inside and that moment. Prisoners of WAR Prisoners of war A.K.A POWs are to be captured when the OPPOSING FORCES surrounds and outnumber friendly forces in a certain location such as a FOB. Prisoner camps should be placed and MARKED inside friendly territory away from the frontlines.The POWs are to be used as hostages by the ones who captured them. It should be noted that Prisoner camps should not be fired upon with artillery or be attacked by Aircrafts.They may only be attacked and captured by ground units. When surrounded the players that are outnumbered may drop their weapons on the ground and put their hands in the air,if they attempt to resist(which in my opinion is something very dumb) they may be shot at or stunned.When captured,they are to be escorted to the nearest FOB or Prisoner Camp where they will be kept as hostages until friendly forces capture the FOB or prisoner camp. Prisoners of war are also allowed to escape when they have a chance. Thank you for your attention -Dereck

Many of us can agree that ArmA 2 is getting a little DEAD and most people, but not all have a PC that can (AT LEAST) run an ArmA 3 life server. Some benefits of TLX hosting one of these servers are the endless possibilities because of all the DLCs, mods, maps, and editing tools available. The best part is the mods available, you can quickly add anything you want on your server in a FLASH. Weapon mods, Custom and arma 2 vehicles, Server setting presets are just as simple as clicking a few buttons and clicking LOAD. By now we should all be begging and donating to TLX for an ArmA 3 server.

Many players have been whining about the various problems that are yet to be fixed in Arma 2 Takistan Life. So i listed several problems that need fixed to improve combat, roleplay and community toxicity. First we have the heavy vehicle or armored vehicle problem, I cant count on my hand how many times I've spotted or been killed by as an Independent player by a Stryker with a grenade launcher or a Bluefor with a Dmr or a sniper. The point is that the prices on many of the Bluefor and Opfor vehicle prices need some serious tweaking. Also regarding Opfor, when purchasing heavily armoured vehicles, apc's or tanks it seems that there needs to be some more restrictions for when your are able to use them. I can understand that because they are closer to the Indi spawn and are Slavs but the Indis dont even have a chance. Independent players are forced to spam Ai players ,ATGMs, tanks and other derp guns just to have a fighting chance to get out of the south or make money but on the other hand they are exploited. Crazy weapons like the AA-12 need to be fixed or removed, they are just as powerful as a 30mm cannon and can shoot down a hind with one round. If you agree or support what I've stated, thumbs up this post and drop a comment down below.

TLX Arma 3 server would get dwarfed by Psysin's and would get 0 players basically

What if you get killed at the Checkpoint? If you are at the Checkpoint you will just get sniped. We usually have it closed so people do not just run through. When we get sniped it stays closed because if we come back we know they're waiting. Even if we tried why waste money to just unclose the barrier if we are just going to get sniped?

you look like a good sniper

all i do is go indep and kill blufor 1700m away with javs and thermal as50

TLX should add a script to allow the as50 to shoot longer ranges more accurately. If the range would extend to 2300m then the gun would be strong and I would really like that. I enjoy the as50 all I do is snipe. This will make finding me more interesting.
