A4 or Reforger... one day...

Hey all, So as some of you may know I did poke my head around for a little bit, got a development environment setup, etc. All against the obvious "stay away" messages I got from a lot of people I trusted. For most of you Asylum was your home, as it was mine as well. When I first booted up Arma 3 a few days after Christmas as a teenager, Asylum was where I came. I recall my first interactions quite well and still hold those memories to today. It pained me to see a server that I wasn't too long ago helping out, go to complete shit. It's quite amazing how dead this place became under not just 1, not just 2, but 3 owners who also developed. That to me alone, is wild... I had hopes of developing and started a bit, in about 5-7 days I accomplished the below. I had hopes to do some more things and started the framework of what a lot of us felt would be a neat feature that both Asylum and Olympus didn't have. However, as I worked on that and settled in to what was silence from all 3 owners. I took note of the false promises given by them. I heard that forums would be worked on and things were happening that no one else could see. When those fell short, I figured why should I even bother. I was looking to do a 2 month or so commitment to help get things rolling, but I could tell they're just not in it. To all of you who made this your community like I did mine, it's sad to see it go. I hope you all do well. If anyone has questions, feel free to post or hit me up, I'll try and answer. https://gyazo.com/3f9ad600caf850e2b2102e9d216ddb58

I was 17, now I'm 31... Crazy to think about how quick life goes by when you think of things this way..

I drink a six pack, stay working, count how many calories I intake with no plan to reduce or lose them. Do ugly chicks Walk my dogs

Truly a decent time to invest though as everything slowly is tanking. Can only go up... as long as the company doesn't dissolve in the midst of it.

I talked with Ifrit Mitch last night too a bit. Azeh a while back, I don't quite know what saving would exactly entail or look like right now. I've also never talked to any of these "owners", at least I don't think?

Unfortunate. 😕

After having read around, I don't think that's an option. Did the wipe kill this off? I've always stood by a wipe on this old of a server would kill it. There's a reason why new servers don't even have a chance of starting...

What's all cracking around this place? Looks like a lot has changed.

Shocked you could even interrupt the repair back in the day. xD

Hello Everyone, 5/14/21 Update: We've just released our application form for staff roles. Feel free to check it out on our discord and apply if interested. While I may have given up Arma 3 development, I've moved on to co-work with @Ignis on creating a FiveM KoTH server. We recently saw the UK hosted KoTH server and wanted to give it a try. There is very few KoTH servers (< 10) or so on FiveM at this time. We initially were going to be making an Asylum RP server on FiveM, but once we started to develop and think on it we realized it'd be like attempting to be a brand new community developing an Arma 3 server. There would be a very low chance of success, especially after seeing how Olympus did their server, etc. So we felt that trying this KoTH server would be a great way if successful would help us grow a FiveM community and branch in to an RP server. Link to our discord can be find below. The Arma 3 Asylum staff team has been aware of this for a bit now and word may have gotten out a bit. This was the information we released to the staff team: In the next few days we'll be releasing recruitment documents/information on our discord for development positions and also a community leadership position. If you're interested in helping please keep tabs on our discord for further details on how you could help. KoTH Discord: https://discord.gg/ynY4KnE7fM Thanks, Jesse/Ignis/Mitch

Hints and a progress bar. These are the type of features Asylum needs. This right here would help keep big gangs around and also be a great new activity. Put it in the next update please!

Imagine thinking that was worth screen shotting. I remember being 16.

Well come develop then or play somewhere else. Don’t get upset that things don’t get done at the pace you want them too. You claim you are so busy.. imagine being an adult and having responsibilities. Mitch edited my post. I did call you a derogatory term for African Americans @Infamous [FULL SEND]in the event you didn’t see it.

Think you need to fix your glasses. I never asked if anyone wanted a conquest to be made. I asked for what people would be in demand of and thoughts. If I was making something it’d be an entirely different mission like KoTH or a different game mode than life server. Not just a part of the life server. I also said none of that was going to happen or anything like that. I was merely polling the community. When someone else decides to pick it up. I officially left the team as an arma developer like about a month ago. Even then wasn’t doing much since late summer due to job related stuff. Been working like 50-60 hour weeks since. I currently work a 45hr week job during the week 3rd shift and a part time job on the weekend for 12hrs. Every day of the week I am at a job. I also have a girlfriend and 2 dogs to spend time with. So I will not be finishing the quest stuff more than likely. It’d be up to someone else. As all I’m really here to do anymore is offer help with infrastructure and some web stuff.
