What the fuck.

Recommended Posts

First of all, I'm gonna start by saying this server needs serious attention, just like 50% of most recent forum posts say and about half the staff team from disgruntled members who have some pent-up rage or some shit that posted on here, to the 3 or 4 I've talked to that are dissatisfied and currently staff (obviously not gonna name names).

second, what is going on an "update" hasn't been implemented for who knows how long at this point, I found the server in March, and about 50% of the time I've been gaming has been on the server since then. Basically why I'm bringing this up is that there is NOTHING to do as civilian and as of recent nothing to do as indep either, hence why the blufor usually almost doubles the two put together. The indeps get fucked by the opfor, not gonna get into that i have too much recently and everyone is whining about it, and the civs have nothing to do but get Rdm'ed, make money, kill people, and punch cops. It sucks. In the 2 months I've been playing, I am officially bored and I'm surprised I lasted this long.

I just got done playing for my last time for awhile probably, because this retard cop carlos, tries rdm'ing me because HE slammed into my car, STG another cop randomly shoots at me for doing nothing, on airfield in a CROWS, and this other cop, (something with a k I can't remember) starts stunning me without saying a word to me, 3 TIMES. "why didnt you go to an admin" well first of all I hate going to the help room, its a video game its silly, however, I definetly was going to because when retards do shit like that, it basically ruins the game. So i go to the help room and the almighty comrade potato is AFK and no other staff is on. The only active staff is Junior mods and they don't even have any permissions to do hardly anything, so when they aren't on then guess what? The "RP" server just turned into a wasteland one. And most of those issues stated above would be fixed with the whitelisting of cop. And when I say whitelist I mean make it a cop test and an application and if you pass both you can play just like you normally would. Not any gay ranking system bullshit for power-hungry kids who wanna bark orders and be cops when they grow up. ( in game ranks are fine and cool, ts ones are not)

Next, where is the communication? Nobody knows what the hell is going on with updates or the future of the server, not even the staff. There are so many things that need to be fixed and i feel like unless it's a crazed ex-staff member or someone shit talking the server, it gets no attention it needs on the forums.

Things that would make the server better, but not limited to:

1. Buff independents and also lower their prices.

2. Make the south more interesting, make the bank robbable, put a casino down there or some shit.

3. Fix the administration.

4. Crackdown on the retardation

5. Add a mobile phone

6. Upgrade the interaction so you can drag people.

7. Add an opfor FOB

8. Add an indep FOB, or make terror a spawn.

9. Nerf the blufor, IMO they should be cops until martial law, not the 12-year-old opfor.

10. Wipe the server (stat reset) 

 

Thanks for reading my long ass novel, sorry ig if I offended you, and thanks if you agree

This is probably the only thing I can 100% agree with, I feel a "real" ranking system would only really work on Arma 3. It would weed out most trolls and people who haven't even bothered to join ts or read basic rules. People just want to fuck around on arma 2, which is the reason most new players instantly just play blufor and sometimes indie. Also a stat wipe would be neat.

Blufor isn't even that op, a somewhat well co-ordinated team can take out crows, strykers or any other vehicle that has slight armour with a mounted gun. Indies also don't need any buffs, just need a player issue regarding camping. But also indies aren't taking full advantage of the terrain.

Civs running out of things to do isn't new. There's only so much you can do before you turn to pvp this is the same with any life server.

If this stuff were to be reported we could do something about it, if staff aren't active at the current time, make a player report. Also, Junior Mods do have permission to do thing's pretty much the same power a Moderator has. Obviously each and every staff member can be busy IRL sometime's and you have to respect that. I am on a lot during the night in the EST timezone which probably won't change soon because the server has decent player's at night with minimal staff on. I do agree, we do need a whitelist for Blufor and Opfor, it will make RP'ing more enjoyable and hopefully less RDM.

If there isn't any staff on, make a player report.

I’m going to make my response short and sweet and respond to each point you have stated above.

 

1. As soon as I get the economy changes from Comrade, they will be implemented. Once they are implemented a stat reset will happen.

2. I fully agree with making the south more interesting. I will attempt my best to make this happen..well the casino is out of the question lol

3. On going changes are happening within the administration team. I will not discuss the changes here but will in an over all post at a later date. Oh, Junior Mods are able to ban for a max of 3 days, if they want it longer they contact either a director or myself and we will extend it.

4. We have been trying our hardest on cracking down, unfortunately we cannot have staff on 24/7 but that’s why we have the staff reports section.

5. A mobile phone is a good idea, we can look into this.

6. We can attempt to implement this as well as being able to place people in vehicles and transport them to the jail.

7. Back when I owned the server, we had an opfor FOB in Feruz Abad. I can talk to Gio about reimplementing that.

8. We can possibly make Terror a spawn point but it would have to cost them to spawn there.

9. If we add an Opfor FOB and make terror a spawn for indeps, I will not nerf Blufor. Instead, if we don’t implement the whitelist I want to bring back a harder cop test that staff has to review before being allowed to play blufor.

 

Again, these are my views that I will attempt to have implemented. I will try my best to get this done but I can only do so much. Maybe I’ll start working on A3 instead. Not sure yet.

2. I dont know if you read my import/export idea but this should work in making more interaction between south/north. But im looking forward what you guys end up doing

4.the european timezone has improved quiet abit with the new mods

5. Maybe adding a bank app to be able to transfer money on the road (no deposit ofcourse)

6. This would make for some awesome rp, ofcourse rules should be made that only gang members are allowed to try and help the prisoner escape else im afraid no prisoner will make it to jail alive.

What if your robbing someone and they put all their money in the bank then? doesnt seem like a good idea to me, maybe put more ATMs across the map instead

Mobile banking wasn't for VIP's. It was for everyone, you just purchased it at your spawn/at the bank, kind of like bank insurance

From what I remember it was for VIP's only, they could have changed it.

well I am glad you agree, and yeah you're right it's not that op I guess I just prefer blufor to be more like cops yk, like they all have SUV's and regular police cars and rifles and keep their stunners out and if a BRDM rolls into rasman they coordinate and tell each other there is an armed vehicle and then they go and get out strykers and CROWS to combat it, not how it is now when half the cop force has a Gpk, Crows, stryker, or armed attack helis, when there are only 5 civs unarmed in rasman. It just increases unnecessary lethal force even more and makes it feel to me as the blufor and opfor are the same just different colors which I'm not a fan of.

 

And also, I don't see you on the server much anymore, is there a reason or just a coincidence?

I play by different names because of the name mix-up with former staff, Rogue :(. Also people can't tell the difference between a G or Q for some reason
