  1. My main concern for whether or not Arma 4 will take off with the asylum community has less to do with the capabilities of people making the server. There will likely be a host of different guns, the way you can damage will probably change a bit. Suppose when you get shot you cant just first aid kit and be at 75 health. You may have to go through a 5 step process that takes multiple minutes to heal similar to the DayZ standalone. What will gangs do without ifrits and mk1's? We all want to see stuff get spiced up but I honestly think people got hooked into Asylum and Altis life in general because of the niche combat and game play that may completely be altered into something that only a fraction of the people who play Asylum or who have played it for a long time will enjoy. Not to mention the map size and terrain will likely be a whole different ball game. In my opinion, Altis is easily the best map for a life server and within that it blows every other map out of the water. It may not be perfect to everyone, but it has grown to be the perfect map for it's purpose to me. I think that will be hard to top for myself and many others.
  2. go back to the bee hive bumble bee man
  3. A pretty wise move all things considered.
  4. -1 his friend chico trolled me in squad and tried to rp as private ryan kek
  5. A global ban is a global ban is a global ban. I have 1 or 2 friends that are global banned that I would like to play with again, but it's a slippery slope. If you get a GB, and don't get it reversed by battle eye, you are shit out of luck.
  6. I'll headbutt you, your forehead is smaller then mine.
  7. Why not keep both so you can still have faks for drug runs and such and it wont take away from what you can hold?
  8. Someone post a video of dillon laughing
  9. Looked like it could be pretty fun when I was in the testing server.
  10. What initially got my attention a long time ago was seeing they had 5 full servers but I stayed because I loved how much freedom the players have always had in the way they can play. So many life servers out there have all these ridiculous rules that you have to follow and it really trims down your options on what you can do and when you can do it. I haven't actually been in game that much recently but what has always kept me here was mostly the friends I have and the way staff handles things, even before I was staff I felt like one of our key attractions is having grounded admins, something that was at least at one point a hard thing to find in a community.
  11. The reason I suggested those limitations is there realistically needs to be some restrictions for the police in the use of this vehicle. If there isn't a handful of boxes to check before using it, it will almost certainly be used too frequently. This should rarely be a vehicle that is pulled if it ever gets put in. Why? Because for over half a decade police got by without it when they have good leadership around.
  12. As Jay said it could use more practical testing on the live server with gangs organically doing the federal events with the cops using this. However I recommend some restrictions in place if it is implemented to limit how easily the police can use this. These limits should be followed and considered black and white to prevent bullshit problems that would otherwise come with this change. These are just ideas and I would like to hear other peoples thoughts on the matter. There should be a certain amount of rebels doing each event this is pulled for. I.e 10 rebels at the fed, 6 at the bank, 6 at the prison etc. I would argue that this should not be pulled at all for the evidence lockup as that is hard enough as is. On the way over to whatever federal event they are going to, the vehicle has to be completely full, that way the cops can't zerg with 5 cops in the madrid and 5+ other hunters/striders, unless they have the numbers to do so, meaning they have 10 in the madrid already and then other cops in armor. That situation would be quite rare I think. The rank of captain could be the only cop allowed to drive it under any circumstances regardless of the situation, if the captain gets shot out tough luck hopefully they have another captain inside the vehicle. Now, speaking about whether or not it is actually impenetrable by a .50 cal definitely needs to get looked at. @John Lemmon demonstrated that could prove to be problematic. I am for this change, however only under the circumstances that it's use by the cops and the circumstances it is used in are very carefully kept in check. I would also like to add that civilians should get the ability to steal it, if the cops are gonna use it then they should be prepared to deal with the chaos that comes with losing it for the remainder of that restart or until they get it back.

    As much as I loved my time playing pre 6.0 which was only about 6-7 months, (I think) there would be a lack of legit content that wouldn't be in place. As two simple examples, the bank and the evidence lock up would be gone. In addition, making money would quite literally be monumentally more time consuming. If I remember correctly pre 6.0 a hemmt gave you 120k?(1.2 mil back then.) The fed payout was also far less. Now certainly that doesn't mean that balancing changes would be inherently entirely reverted as well however there would be less to do. Might I remind you how much a large number of the veteran players are completely sick and tired of making money. I think what we all miss about pre 6.0 was having 4 altis servers and one stratis server that were absolutely popping the fuck off. Every large gang had their own home server. There was pretty much always a cartel fight to be had on one of the servers. The fights with cops were ridiculously fun and endless as well because there was so many of them.

    COVID Baby

    I'm quite far from the right or the left in my political beliefs, but yeah true dog. I'm aware people are dying of this at higher rates in other countries, most of which have subpar medical care standards and the living situation is vastly different. In Italy specifically from what I understand most of the country is somewhere between 25-40 years behind in development. It's as if they are in a modern soviet union with the standard of living there. I'm sure that their standard for medical care is on a similar level as well. There are many parts in Italy that apparently don't even have modernized plumbing, which would obviously be a hygiene issue on it's own. (That last part may be incorrect I remember reading in a textbook at some point in time I don't know how outdated it is.) I've also read that it's very common for the elderly to live with younger people in Italy which is almost the perfect storm for this "highly contagious" disease. To be frank I rarely completely trust what I read anyways. I also just realized this reply was from July lmao
