  1. Ubuntu 16.04 LTS can run arma 3 servers. Jus'sayin'. But nah really -- good work @Paratus et. al., sleuthing these things is never fun/easy, especially when there's mounting pressure from donors/community. Cheers.
  2. Thanks for sharing that Bear. I was wondering what "Prestige" was in my phone's Money section, never bothered to really look at it.
  3. lol the picture pulled from my disqus or gravavatar acct automatically from my email addy like github or whatever, am a web programmer so this shit is everywhere. am up to $700k and own a few properties just from wreck excavating, it gets better when starting out if you just stay away from everyone and don't hang out in populated areas (or grab a group with cool folks you meet, no one seems to approach 4 guys with guns) I think the money cap is $1mil anyway? Will probably start doing more fun things soon.
  4. Server went down when wreck excavating 3km Southwest of Pyrgos in the middle of the ocean. RIP boat. RIP loot. RIP me.
  5. Would just like to add to this as a newcomer using this guide -- If there's a high server population, and not a lot of APD on, would not recommend wreck excavating at Kavala. Go to Pyrgos, go 2.8km southwest by boat, and excavate there. Sneak through the back alleys to the Jewelry shop when done -- there's even an ATM right on the back side of the building. Reason I'm saying this is because the beach at Kavala to land at is heavily open and watched by petty robbers and lone wolf thieves, just waiting for you to return and follow you to rob after selling to jeweler (speaking from experience). Yes, you're adding about 5 mins to your Wreck Runs by going to Pyrgos, but it's a hell of a lot less risky.
  6. This is probably why I enjoy/continue to play even though the suck comes in once in a while. There's a lot more strategy involved than it just being a life sim. KOTH has been boring the past 2 years. Yell at team to get in AO, pop out a Varsuk and cap a few tanks, down a few jets. Repeat for 400 hours and its just no fun. Altis Life/Asylum is what you make it. Just powering through the garbage moments and enjoying the great ones. It's not that anyone is really a jerk (besides the intentional RDM/VDM'ers), they're just playing the game for what it is. Have met some cool people, have met some not so cool people. For the most part, folks are generally helpful in Side Chat and giving great advice. The guides on these forums are phenomenal. Word of advice to the other nubs that reach this post -- just stick around a while, it gets more fun (minus all the server down-time lately). Don't spam side chat with the same question 500 times, check these forums and learn the game mode.
  7. Lol the safest ways of making money (at least alone) I've found are the longest ways of making money. Wreck excavating about 3km West of Pyrgos, then taking back-alleys to the jewelry store (which has an ATM immediately behind the bldg). I was doing Wreck Runs at Kavala in < 20 minutes. The distance to shipwreck/walk to Jewelry store for Pyrgos turns it into about 30 minutes, though. I actually managed to pull $200k last night after writing the original post. Also found the best times are when server pop is extremely low, because everyone else is too busy drug running to mess with you. @Berus are there any guides floating around the forums for weed running? Is it as timely/profitable as wreck salvaging?
  8. Spends an hour wreck salvaging. 50% of the time on way to jewelry store/ATM, get robbed. Decides to do something different, saves and buys a HEMTT to go medium-yield mining. Meets some friendly players at quarry. Spend 15 minutes processing 600+ worth of inventory. Friendly players from quarry manage to follow you and hide at Mineral Processing. Get robbed, expensive truck goes and gets chopped. Saves enough for a helicopter @ $50k. Does some DP missions thinking they'd be "safe" and leisurely via helicopter. Gets robbed at DP in the middle of nowhere, helicopter gets stolen. Bye Asylum Life, it's been a pleasure wasting my time.
