And between the 3 studios that one is backed by Sony they have over 20 devs working on ARK. So go ride your fuckin dinosaur Mr. Hagler. 

Ark is backed by a Game Studio with cash from VC's The dev's they have are getting paid to build ARK. Epoch is a couple of guys building a MOD they want for free. They only get our donations here or if you support them on patreon. Big difference. Epoch devs have other jobs and many have family's that come first. They do this mod in their free time. If you can't deal with that then go play fuckin ARK.

Always put the walls between rotors. And I mean BETWEEN, not 1 meter away like some people do and imagine that it gonna prevent them from spinning. Helipads don't do anything except make it higher chance that your heli will explode after each restart, however, a high helipad with no stairs (or blocked stairs) will prevent others from exploding your helis on purpose with hand grenades which many people do in many servers and I consider a very poor tactics and any good admin will ban for such behaviour. Exploding any vehicle just because you can't steal it is retarded.
 
I hope you are aware that vehicles, especially helicopters tend to disappear from time to time, even if nobody touched them. They just vanish after reset. Either by proximity explosion (when person gets closer, they jump into the air and BOOM) or by a bug which Arma 3 has, when vehicles just vanish for no reason.
 
So if you decide to build a heli pad, make it at least 3 stories high (though a heli on such helipad can be destroyed with 50 cal anyway if server has such things) and always protect their rotors with stud walls. Better two. But usually one wall is enough per heli.
 
And don't build bases in Arma buildings, your warehouse is destructible with just one satchel.

Be better if the Krypto was on your body with a check pocket option, ive lost count of how many times my Krypto has fallen under a building or a object i was using for cover, same with guns

Matters like this are best not broadcast on the forums. Most people here have no idea what you are talking about.

I like that it is finally a kind of a real jungle forest, not some random trees like in Altis. Really love it, however I am skeptical about playing Epoch on it...100 km2 is too small in my opinion, but I will definitely try it :) but yeah bright green everywhere looks really appealing.

"With a ground surface area of 270 km2". (source: http://blog.moricky.com/post/59384853947/game-maps)
 
P.S. with water included it is 1000 km2. Like 30x30 km. I think now Chernarus+ with all those new added locations is around 230 maybe 240 km2 but it still looks small to me personally because of how the map is designed (just random corner/square).

This will be awesome for BR :D

Meanwhile in New Zealand ;D 
 
 
 
Ok, sorry not a terrain, can't delete now this post :(

To each their own. I think devs will tweak the damage systems in next patches, but to me this is not a huge issue at all. I was never a fan of base raiding. But I guess I am in the minority here. Wait for next patch though. Want those damn stairs fixed!!! :D And free mode for ghost snapping :D

Yeah, we've had some regulars test us in our server on the glitching into someone else's base. I give a warning first to let them know that we don't allow that on the server. If i catch them again after the warning, they get no warning that a ban is incoming. Usually even after banning a regular, I don't believe we've ever had any of them come to our teamspeak and ask for the reason why they got banned. I love hearing the excuses as to why they are glitching, giving all sorts of excuses, such as the modders should fix the issue all the way back to the developers of Arma 3 needing to fix it. In my opinion, it's all about integrity, and if I can't trust you then why would I even want you playing on my server...

I fucking hate waiting. It's like nearly a whole year away before I can feel some moisture under my feet. Altis is dryer than an Arab's sandal.

It gives terrain builders more objects :D
ETA is early next year as DLC

title says it all, are they trolling us or is this really the running animation we will see from now on?
 
i mean personally i think it looks like the character took a dump in his or hers pants ... whats your opinion on this?

Wonder what they broke this time... ;)

I see Epoch as much more then what some can. Hosting and scripting different types of epoch servers allows me to look into it further.
 
If anything I think Epoch as more a database structure that needs
 
1. Lots more configurations for admins to adjust in a control panel environment.
2. We can make the server how we see fit. (different epoch environments)
3. Work with others on content, and not being forced to remove epoch features. (everyone is different)
4. Epoch offers new and exciting things to add if you want. Themes= true :)
 
since I quoted this wasn't a zombie thing anymore in 2013, I would assume it is much more a complete sandbox mod allowing you to build the environment.
I hope that's the direction epoch is going, because I don't see epoch a zombie simulator game at all, I think of it as an environment.

Apart from obvious similarities, Exile has some interesting features (or tweaks) which I hope will be implemented in Epoch at some point. Now can't remember what in particular I liked, but it would make Epoch a much better mod. Either way, Exile to me looks too much like wasteland and has not enough freedoms compared to Epoch (you can do in Epoch practically whatever you want). Will I play Exile? No. But I will monitor its progress notheless. My heart is at Epoch :)

remove the annoying timber in the stairs so we can make sick as towers

I get a window that says my connection is being checked before i join the forum. Was denied access for at least an hour before getting to the forum page. Could get to main page, but could not even navigate from there. Nor from my bookmark. Strange.

My grammar nazi senses are tingling :D

And with this new arma update bugemia keeps fixing stuff that isn't broken and breaking things that work just fine since 1999.... classic. Sell this script to them, maybe they will include it in 2017th arma 3 update

I've had this since 1.44, i had hoped it would be fixed :(
Join the party here

Fixed: ATRQ of Taru should no longer be easily destroyed while Sling Loading
Bout time bugemia 

Yeah this really needs a sticky post and detailed instructions on setting it up, all server owners need to know this and the step by step on getting it working. I'm sure I can fumble it to work, but step by step makes it much easier :D
