THR4SH3R Posted April 7, 2016 Report Share Posted April 7, 2016 Hi all, I'm enjoying my time at Asylum but me and my mates have came from a more serious RP server, Altis Life UK, don't get me wrong - there's nothing wrong with the way this server is run but there have been some serious violations of RP. Using overhead tags to identify me (Metagaming) and violation of New Life Rules and the ridiculous amounts of RDM in gang controlled territory when you simply drive through. Personally, it's annoying me how this server is so developed and the majority of the community have been extremely nice but a few are ruining it. I'd like to suggest some more enforcement of roleplaying rules and implanting the New Life Rule? Thanks, THR4SH3R Feldmen and Brendon Smith like this Link to comment
Haych Posted April 7, 2016 Report Share Posted April 7, 2016 (edited) There is a reason Asylum is more popular then its Roleplay counter parts (ALUK and GTA). People play here because you have much more freedom, you can have much more fun without being restricted by strict roleplay rules. I've been a part of both communities of AltisLifeUK and GrandTheftArma and they both have very similar rules. It's fun if you're the type of person who enjoys roleplaying and I always +1 ALUK when people want a serious roleplay community. The only issue with both of these server is that if you pick combat over roleplay or show any toxic behaviour at all, you will get blanket banned. Asylum is not a serious roleplay server, it fills in the spot of being a heavy combat oriented Altis Life server. If you wan't to get better at the game and fight amongst the best Arma players, Asylum is the place for you. If you want to be a part of a nice community and enjoy roleplaying, ALUK is for you. I suggest staying away from GTA as they have a very young Admin team who tend to be immature at most times, however their development is light years ahead of ALUK's. AltisLifeUK is a nice server, but unfortunately they are let down by there lack of development as they have a 14yr old developer who doesn't really know what he's doing, however the staff team is very nice and friendly. So to sum it up.Asylum: Combat oriented, amazing features, terrible UI, a lot of bugs, amazing developer. Freedom. No NLRALUK: Amazing community, amazing roleplay, terrible development, terrible UI, way to many bugs, terrible features. Strict rules. 15m NLRGTA: Immature Admins, good UI, best balancing, decent features, good developer, has the least bugs, semi strict rules. Strict NLROlympus: Terrible at everything. 15m NLR.

THR4SH3R Posted April 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 I get what you're all saying. I am not saying 'strict' rules, I'm saying to stop RDMing everybody you see if you can afford the fines. Link to comment

Each server is good and bad in its owns way, some servers will be much better in one area, however not in another. You just have to find the one that fits you best. Asylum tends to have a higher RDM ratio because the Gun Store is located within city limits, however that's also the amazing thing, pistol banging in Kavala is life.

The tags is not metagaming ( to my understanding) as said this is a light RP server and also this helps everybody to know who to shoot and wo not to ( as this server has a lot of combant ). With this you will not report for RDM someone that killed you because you know he is in that gang/group so you are inititated with them. 2. There is no NLR here, however if you kill or get killed by someone and he decides to get back to kill you he or you needs to reinitiate. Unless there is still somone of the other group alive and you are alive, you both are still in combat ( Combat Inititation last for 5 minutes until the last shot fired or until the other group or your group gets wiped) Hopefully I explain myself good enough and this helps you to understand better our rules.

THR4SH3R Posted April 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 Fair play to all your responses. I'd just like it if new spawns didn't get constantly RDM'd, we were all new once. Link to comment
xxpenguinguyxx Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 I agree with aspects of THR4SH3R's paragraph but I do not think the community as a whole would ever accept this. Link to comment

Quit being a fucking cupcake and suck it up The one time I'll agree with eptic. We all went through it. If you like the community enough, you just have to suck it up and work through it. Granted I'll give you the benefit of the doubt that robbing is much more frequent now than when I started out. I can see them adding more restrictions to RDM - like having a seriously legit reason / gain from killing someone so that people just can't kill everyone they see I guess. Hands up - dead. If a gang lands an orca near civs, they are usually all dead. Although I do it too, it isn't really fair to them. Link to comment

Gangs rule most of the island and cops are seldom to be seen compared to real life. One has to fend for himself and rely on his own wits and skills to survive. Link to comment
