It's stuff like this that added to Arma 2 Epoch becoming all carebear orientated. Really nice to see it's happening to 3 already, before it's even bloody finished, yay.

Yeah, I feel either way about this.... Would be nice to receive something for giving.... But you don't give because you want something in return, i feel you should give because you like the game and want to support the people who help make the mod..... As a courtesy. And in return, you receive good and constant content and good support.
Yeah that's the best way for sure. Giving people everything on a plate for money is silly and just promotes moaning on top of that, because if you give people stuff they expect it all the time. I can understand reserved slots but not in-game items and stuff. Accepting donations cause people wanna see the server running is fair do's, taking money for a ton of in-game stuff and setting up stores and subscriptions is not the way to go at all.

Yeah there's definitely hackers and script kiddies around still, we encountered some yesterday who shot us from miles out through two buildings without knowing we were even there as we were sat still for ages, I just play until I am aware of some on that server then log off or go to another one. Even the passworded ones will still get hackers at the moment. I don't think we'll see a really good antihack/admin tool for a while yet, but I hope there's something to bog them down at least in the meantime.

Hahaha that's terrible! Anybody who buys that shouldn't even be playing Epoch/DayZ, more money than sense, I hope BI come down on people who allow that big time. I've never allowed that kind of stuff myself at all.
You go into hosting knowing all the risks financially and time-wise, that it'll most likely never be permanent and it could all go to shit at any point. Allowing stuff like this to get money off people (who are just stupid to give you it) makes you look like a complete tool.

I really hope they don't intend on spoon feeding us items with specific item traders like in Arma 2. I like that it's really hard to find build supplies and high end vehicles. It makes the game more challenging forcing you to loot rather than head to a build trader and buy x amount of salvage metal.
Couldn't agree more. I absolutely love how they're set up now, where they only have in stock what they are sold to them, it makes it more survival which is how it should be. Would hate to see some of the Arma 2 Epoch carebear stuff come into this, please no.

Still crap myself when I hear it, then even more so when it "radios" the NPC's.

I think the main thing people have problems with is the ones who camp out freshspawns, that is a bit silly but I guess it's up to them. Killing freshspawns is pretty pointless and gains nothing for any party, so I've never understood the logic personally.
It's quite difficult to find the balance to where it's not carebear-orientated but not an all out deathmatch to the point it's turned into an Arma server. I wouldn't like to see stuff like safezones added myself as they only promote the moaners and types of players that expect everything to be easy and put on a plate in front of them, but maybe punishments somehow for killing freshspawns/people at traders and spawn areas for example, in the way of getting a huge chance of antagonists on you for a certain period of time. Something like that is supposed to be in place isn't it? If it is already I haven't noticed it happening at all.
I can understand peoples frustration as I've been killed a few times as a fresh spawn, I'm not going to moan about it as it's a part of the game, but it will put people off eventually. Like someone said above it's kinda stopping people testing stuff and trying things out if you can't get anywhere because of people like that. It does get to that point sometimes if they're camping near the spawn areas for example when you get a big gang of them doing it.

This looks badass, good job! Be cool to see it added on one of the servers.
-
I'd love to get back to playing on the server as this was mine and my friends regular one, but where exactly do we get the password for it? I've been whitelisted for ages so assume I am fine to play on it. I've tried going on the EpochMod TS but the devs are never available.
-
Strange, I always play fullscreen and have the problem. I'll fiddle about with it when I play later.
-
I can change it but it doesn't seem to make a difference if that's what you mean. Never tried changing it when playing Arma SP/MP so not sure if it's just an Arma issue or Epoch.

Me and my two companions in game have encountered them about 4 times now, think we've managed to kill them every time, once just the one of us died. I have seen a few people say they have been insta-killed by them however we haven't encountered that. We've bumped into them in industrial areas, cities and in the kind-of open ground near a trader. I love the AI I have to say, think it's well balanced from my personal experiences! Maybe we've just been lucky and not had the OP ones. It'd be great to see more varied gear on them eventually. And yeah, it's always PDW's they have on them.

Yeah same issue here and I've set up everything perfectly, still only downloading 164 KB of it then saying it's complete/finished when it's an 830 MB download, gotta be something on their end, I've left it syncing since around 10am this morning. Tried deleting it all and starting again twice, but it always gets stuck at the same 164 KB point.
Also, the folders will be empty as the download is incomplete. It's missing a crapload of stuff.
Player double after relogg.

Yeah I noticed that as well, we've turned the doppelganger down to 5 seconds rather than the default 60 for now to stop it happening.
