Names , RPG , Donation rewards

[tobytron11]

first of all nametags are way too easy to see you can see them a mile of this just wrecks combat as asylum is seen for and a soft rp server , the nametags need to be either a distance such as 10m or maybe remove them and you need to ask for identity which is then given by the player if wanted , currently bounty hunters run around and shoot on sight then take you jail , happens all the time also their is no way of hiding all you need to do is click the key above tab and look through a bush and your spotted !

secoundly rpgs , right lets get this message across 10k for the rpg but 40k for each rocket its like a one time use and if you die rip 50k just for 1 rocket and launcher the rockets should be lowered to around 15k each as if you miss your pretty much shite , Rpgs should be lowered or taken due to the fact banks will be easier as you can fuck the cops up driving from 300 metres if you know how to properly use the rpg

thirdly donation rewards , theses rewards are pretty pathetic due to the bohemia rules having to be followed however if you guys make something modded to the server that then outrules their guidelines and donation reward system currently I'm a level 3 donator not much but I did it for a house crate but does that even come under the donator now , we need something new , something donators should be proud of donating for other than a cool server , yes its a donation but seriously for 250$ we get a vr suit and goggles and some colours of vehicles cmon  seriously this donation reward system needs to be different better discounts or specialised talents for different donor ranks or items we are able to buy to speed up runs etc

i agree im only level 2 donator but there are not enough rewards anymore for donating i think. on altis everyone can spawn at donor now, everyone can get a debit card now. $25 for something that people can already get? nice.

rpg prices are fine no need for everyone to have 5 rockets

stfu, you donate because you want rewards, you donate because you appreciate the server, stop crying, or go play a different server.

we could use less self-entitled retards on the server

I know it is a shame , maybe they do something about it to help us donators feel like we get something for the $

rewards makes people want to donate. it isnt like we are donating to a fucking charity. its an arma server, yes to support the servers but I still think we should have more rewards.

okay sick, instead of complaining, come up with ideas that both encase bohemias rules as well as where Paratus wants to take the server.

bohemia doesnt allow donation for rewards that can change gameplay. idk where paratus wants to take the server.

atleast offer stuff like titles in game for donators for example, its the least anyone could do. i am unsure. no need to get so heated over this thread ham

nah not heated, just annoyed people with 11 forum posts feel the need to complain about the server when they've been on it maybe a week, I've played for TWO years and never complained about rewards.

only thing worth complaining about nowaday is the lag, its unbearable, if donating would fix lag, id donate $50 right now, but sadly till I see changes or at least less lag my time is limited on Asylum.

also, I find it hard to believe that this lag is something we can't fix, shitty devs on olympus can host 100 player servers with a 31k mission file (bigger than Asylum) and have it running smooth the whole day...something has to be wrong on Asylum's end, and it's fine, if they want the server to run like that its on them.

Headless Client is a savior. It has basically eliminated lag on 1. just some weird small bugs to work out. Then i foresee headless client to be roled out to all servers

I heard there are still issues even with headless client, its basically the definition of insanity for me to keep getting on and expecting different results, I wish the devs were a bit more transparent about how theyre going about fixing it, (I know they did say they were rolling out headless client) however I was looking for more in-depth talk about how they wanna fix it.

[TheRealLethal]

@Todd Howard BTW buddy names are fine, if you think the current tilde system is op. You clearly ddint play when we had the last one. I use to be able to tilde ephedra from kavala rebel.

So headless client is only on one right now because its experimental. For example sometimes when the server restarts, it looses connection with the headless client and needs to be hard reset. The second bug (which should be fixed at the time of writing this, im on mobile so i cant tell you) is that bodies disappear. This is caused by the script that cleans up bodies when someone disconnects to cleanup all bodies on the server one someone disconnects. Im almost 100 percent sure this has been fixed. Not even sure that it was connected to headless client, could have just fat fingered the script. The only issue is DDoS, which is out of the control of anyone. I miss the days of fighting

Yeah I mean I heard they're getting DDoS'd just don't know if I really believe that anymore, when it happened in short spurts every now and then it was believable, but who has the money to sustain a DDoS for 10+ hours a day? seems very unlikely..

trust me i was skeptical as well. And all of it for sure was not DDoS. Its not like the old days anymore. Its been awhile since i played with Denial of Service attacks since im not a COD fag anymore. Back in the day, you had to buy a VPS and put a Perl DOS script on it then you could slap sites, Now, you can pay 2 dollars and get access to a 10k botnet "stress tester". With the rise of Gigabit Connections, It is possible to Use a home network for evil. Only real way to stop it, is to fire lazers back at the source (this wont work against bnet btw) but that would be illegal and immoral as well. Its a tough situation

Maybe keep the server you spend all your time on up and running? Or that not good enough?

thirdly donation rewards , theses rewards are pretty pathetic due to the bohemia rules having to be followed however if you guys make something modded to the server that then outrules their guidelines and donation reward system currently I'm a level 3 donator not much but I did it for a house crate but does that even come under the donator now , we need something new , something donators should be proud of donating for other than a cool server , yes its a donation but seriously for 250$ we get a vr suit and goggles and some colours of vehicles cmon  seriously this donation reward system needs to be different better discounts or specialised talents for different donor ranks or items we are able to buy to speed up runs etc

Fixed it for you

[tobytron11]

The lag may be client sided I don't come across to much lag tbh but hit very Millesecound spikes but that's all , I've been playing on the server for a good over 2 years over multiple accounts and have had a good share of experience on this community , I would like to donate more but if I donate more I feel like it's a waste yes it helps keep the server up but for how long guys think of it if I'm the only one that donates a good amount then I have to cover the website tea speak and in game , i and others would like to see a change within the donation rewards to seem like we get something out of it instead of carrying on playing like others of which do not donate , hamsham may I ask to keep the profanity and abusing other servers as they do try their best and they're not "shitty" each community tries harder than each other and this community would not like to be seen as fighting with other communities about devs . Asylums end is perfectly fine as I see a good community of which I get no lag and running ultra at 60 fps smoothly with no lag within the server , please do not moan about lag as this may be mostly your setup not asylum sided as many do not receive this "unbearable lag "

1. RPG's are expensive to prevent people having access to shit tones of rockets in combat.
2. Donate because you want to help the server, not because you get rewards (Pay 2 Win is complete BS)
3. Kinda agree with name tags from distance in terms of fighting cartels but in normal situations its better to have it the way it is.

Yeah how is this possible? I prefer and love Asylum and wish I got as good of frames on a half full asylum server as I do on a fully packed Olympus one.

As I said I donate to keep the server up and so do many other but after a week , your like hmm where did that 50$ go I mean you see nothing too it and just playing on their server which other do as well , for 50$ I get a debit card yes it helps but 50$ an other donators would like to see something I game for donating other than donating then wondering where did the money go , some donators see no value to it which I'm trying to say people want to see a reward instead of it being like a charity it should be like the £1 help for heroes and you get a wristband for doing so but obviously something in game

People do enjoy rewards for donating but its not something you should expect imo, donating as a principle is to show support without expecting any personal gain. 

What needs to happen is maybe more cosmetic donation perks like new vehicle skins or something that gives no real benefit to the players in game ability against others who choose not to donate.  Anything that becomes Pay 2 Win makes the game less enjoyable.

What your getting for your donation is keeping this server running. Many did not know but several months Paratus was taking money out of his and his families pocket to continue to have our servers up and running. I believe he was quoted on here saying that it's about 1500.00 a month with the 5 servers that he is running. Thats a lot of money for someone to take out of their personal finances to keep all of us playing here, that's dedication. If you have a problem with the rewards program feel free to contact Bohemia, perks are extremely limited due to Bohemia. The perks and rewards that you still get is due to Paratus working with their legal team, fighting back and forth. People really forget the meaning of donating to the server. Without donations you wouldn't be playing here.

[Vanax]

If you guys are looking for more donation perks and stuff try loot crates? I'm not too well knowledged with the loot crate system but maybe that's a more interactive way of donating that you're looking for? +1 to the titles for donating; maybe $50 and above? not a real big deal though.
