Nah not even close. A dignified send off would be a blowout type event with a server count down type shit for the end or something. If the wipe doesn't work out, it'll go out in a whimper. That's the tragedy out of all of this.

[Tyrese]

We tried to help you guys correct the server for weeks after we came back to Arma. You guys refused to listen to us, talked shit and acted like we were stupid. Now this is the state of the server. Throw in the towel...

• Starting out there will be four Fed events - Fed, Bank, Casino, & Prison.
• Housing Changes:
  • 3 houses total (Including 1 shed)

I like these, but no need for a wipe.

If population is shrinking you need to "shrink the map" and bring people together by reducing the amount of places to go on the map IE: remove half the money making places, remove passive money making, and delete Sofia

 

The issue isn't the money its that the only way to force interactions is at locations that notify other players such as cartels and feds. (Wasteland)

mass unban, better UI, and a better jump script

[Beardog]

Im gonna get the best properties right from the start, sure its a bummer losing my shit but ive been divorced 3 times so im used to it. Also it was alot of fun getting those houses so getting my new ones will be exciting too. Opportunity is looking pretty good when the restart begins.

I'm down for a wipe but I can see why some people would be against it as well. 

[.Sean]

people play oly now because its easier to make money. The difference between there and asylum is the community. Too many things have been added over the last 2 years to even make it feasable to know what to do in the server. Great example; We have all played other servers when asylum was popping to see the difference, every server had too much shit going on on the map, too many crazy features, too many safe zones, too many rules, nlr, the whole 9 yards and immediately left, Want a increase in player base? literally just wipe the last few years of updates all the way back to when the casino was added. Make it actually worth it to play the server. nobody wants to log on when a cartel is in the middle of the ocean, nobody wants to log on when you cant do an event because someone just did one, nobody wants to log on when theres 20 cops on and 30 civs on, new people dont want to log on when they click athira and get mowed down by an mk200 after 2 hours of picking apples even im guilty of it. the point is nobody wants to log on due to all the garbage thats been added, in what the dev team may consider something added to give players more to do.

 

I remember when the cartels were in the same 5 places. everyone loved that, now you log on and theres a million different spawn locations. Take this as healthy criticism, we dont need a wipe, yes its gonna hurt hitting the roll back button on all the late nights spent adding all these irrelevent features, but at the end of the day. We all miss how it was, that is what drew new players in, not making rolexes with ingredients in the middle of bumblefuck.

 

EDIT*****

Additionally the only people crying about a wipe is the people that have all the good houses, but for those people tight about that ask yourself this, how did it feel grinding for those houses? How satisfying was it when you finally had the keys in your Y? You can grind that again, or straight out buy them as quick as possible, the choice is yours!

 

Leave Meth, Weed, Uranium, Coke, Heroin, Moonshine get rid of the rest of the filler garbage thats been added through the years

Leave all legal activities

Get rid of all the nonsense cartel spawns thats been added

Go back to the OG Cartel spots

OG Cop spawns

All the BS thats been added through the years can go.

Unban everyone thats not game banned, see where it lands us, they can always be RE-Banned

 

Make it a grind again, dont make it so easy for new players because nobody liked easy when they started, sure we wanted it to be easier but not what it is now, theres no drive to keep playing when your invincible when you start fresh.

Stop with this crap you call "updates, asylum v3 and the new beginning" and just listen to the little community you have left.   read this part a couple more times, too much ya deciding what ya think is good and not enough what does the actual player base think is good.

A wipe, after all of this "content"???????? Only to add more "content", we haven't even found out what it's going to look like but everyone's already sold on the idea. Do you have any faith in the dev team after witnessing their efforts this past year? I don't think we're in good hands buddy, not to mention this is set to appear two weeks after being announced and only a week after their latest "come to our server, i'll pay you" - they're desperate and fucking retarded, this server is gone. Try and understand that this is the same team that killed the server to this point in the first place, but this time without your stats, without your money, without any of your progress in the years you've played. Consider this a fresh start in the hands of the same team that killed this established server off in the first place. Asylum has been on life support for the past 4 or so years but it takes a special team of retards to really take it down this far, hahahaha. I still absolutely fw the wipe, and I hope they don't save a backup cus either way it's going to die with whose in charge.

 

Keeping the wipe in place prevents any old established players from returning, one's with just money and their old stats. They have to start new and there's no appeal there, they're qutting for good. So the only appeal for asylum after this wipe is for players who want to try Asylum as a beginner, literally a fresh new arma 3 server after 10 or so years of the game being established. The end, it's gone.

 

The same team that gave up after the virgin developer who thinks he's fucking socrates ruined this community with his shit content, this isn't asylum anymore.

circa 2022 fitz before dev about wiping the server... great idea in theory, too bad his content is all dog shit and he's not a genius philosopher after all.

 

https://gyazo.com/38c1b1c00897f8ce5ce9ef75f919ab44

SA hires Dev that is mid-tier sqf coder, promises good content -> community is now drowning in the influx of new weapons, the server literally dies off after a few weeks because the server isn't even asylum anymore, so what does the dream team do? Doubles down on the shit content -> server dies more -> fuck it, why not add more? -> server literally dies -> fuck it, why not promise more content -> community is in shambles -> wipe? We give up -> what next????

 

ur trolling right? I guess we really found out what happens when Asylum tries to copy olympus. You let the new dev and some interim captain handle the direction of the community? Crazy stuff.

Maybe I'm clinging to a dead servers' stats but the fact is that the server is only completely dead because of these guys, good stuff. 

Here's a quote for the virgin philosopher @Fitz

"Isn't it ironic? Our modest spark, which could have quietly persisted, is now forced by the hands of misfortune to burn fiercely and briefly before fading away. Well done, you fuckng virgins, in your grand play of faggotry."

[Midamaru]

Personally the wipe looks fun to me. I believe there will be an initial spike in activity from the players who gather money to buy good houses. Since these are normally unobtainable or expensive but now available for a low price. During this time you will run into more players, fight over areas, gangs might fight over drug cartel because most of the server will be probably farming drugs.

I think it's a chance for improval on the player activity, but only if people are willing to try. Seeing the reactions from most people voicing their opinion it already looks like their mind has been made up. I wouldn't be suprised it will quickly turn into the low activity we have right now or eventually close the server.

@HunterB Is it possible to post a date/time of when this wipe is happening? At least whenever possible announce it in advance so people can plan for it.

I wonder what the playtime is of all the people complaining individually. While they complain, they did nothing to help and populate .
While there is most likely "some" with a good amount of hours and that gives a little credit there, I don't think it is the same for alot of the others.

I remember talking to a few people and they said they had chosen Asylum before because of its simplicity compared to other servers. adding in all the extra, Purification (forcing an interaction), Honey, Gunmetal, Watches, Cigars, it is great and all, but I know how I can make money based on who is playing, there is too much to do, I Might only see one person when I'm making money, on purpose. 

Take it back to its roots, something that is simple and well done is much better than something that is extravagant and poorly put together. 

[Blaxheart21]

Also, Everyone is here shitting on Fitz. He did implement a lot of good things, there were also things that just dug the grave deeper intertwined. Trying to balance the economy out some and taking money out of the richer peoples bank accounts, ended up greatly unbalancing combat, especially for anyone newer or poor. Allowing us to shed again was fun... for the people who won fights, and an ever bigger hit on the pocket for the people who already lost a loadout and whatever cargo they had.

It is a wrong decision to completely clear player assets. This cannot change the fact that there are few people on the server. Let us wait and see.

On a real note though, its bad when we are now desperate for a 30 pop server. At this point in Asylum's life we are going to need drastic changes. Looking back on the test wipe and then looking back now you are right, Asylum has changed and has gone away from its roots. The purpose of this wipe is to go back to that. An example, when I looked on the map during the test wipe I would see players interacting all across the map. There were players in each corner doing something whether it be farming, fighting, etc. Now when I look across the map, I see a cluster of cops and civs in Athira with a few stragglers at cartels or setting up for a bank/prison. You can blame it on whoever, the matter of the fact is that there is just currently no gameplay because most of the server base is already established and all sit in one place of the map. I agree with you that there was one update that slowly led to cause us to be in this spot. But we can't go back now and its better to try to wipe and see if we can get core Asylum back rather than just trying to shove content into a 15 pop server. 

Not until a week ago, I have never seen a group of SA/CMs and devs work on something so closely together and be on the same page. I am excited to see what comes out of this in hopes of seeing Asylum alive once again.

imo, wipping an altis server after few years is not a bad idea because it didn't have enough pop but coming back to another altis life is a bad idea imo. moving to modded is the best option its 2024 arma 3 and people dont want to start from the scratch again especially altis people are tired of it its very old nothing new.

just look who voted for the wipe

Trollvotes, Admins, Wannabe Admins still fresh with cocksmell on their mouth, Career Cops, People who have like 2 hours on the server the for the whole year

I for one think that it is a very good sign that noone is on the server right now blowing through all their money it makes me really excited for the wipe and the future and it changed my mind.

I liked making scripts to give myself an advantage over other players via battlemetrics data and even my-asylum money data at one point, which is literally data accessible by anybody. I liked making the scripts more than I did playing the server tbh, monopoly was fun while it lasted and I'd still win if I had or have any interest going forward. my bad for buying your two sheds, tbh buying sheds became super fun when people thought I had admins in my pocket and malded every time I made a realestate post. Fun times haha.

I remembered at the beginning you would have 30 people in medium yield quarry in Kavala just grinding away. And it made decent money. Enough for people to enjoy fighting for the day. Feel like legal stuff will need a buff too. When people constantly keep getting robbed or caught by the ridiculous amount of cops on that just roll ten deep everywhere, they tend to give up and quit the server. I've played this server from the very beginning seen a lot of changes some good some bad. But i think the wipe will be refreshing and something new. Maybe we can get the old asylum back again maybe not as popped but fun again. I agree there a lot of weird stuff added to it that makes the server to complicating to make money. I think cops need a debuff as well at the beginning at least. Go back to stings again haha. Even maybe a wipe for ranks of the apd get fresh faces in there. Anyways just my opinion from an old dog. I will be giving the wipe a try tho.
