Thank you all so very much.
Thank you to the Academy.
Thank you to all of you in this room.
I have to congratulate the other incredible nominees this year.
TheScar was the product of the tireless efforts of an unbelievable cast and crew.
First off, to my brother in this endeavor, Mrs Xwatt. Your talent on screen can only be surpassed by your friendship off screen … thank you for creating a transcendent cinematic experience.
Thank you to everybody at EU1# and AHOY … my entire team.
I have to thank everyone from the very onset of my career …
To my parents; none of this would be possible without you.
And to my friends, I love you dearly, you know who you are.
 
And lastly, I just want to say this: Making TheScar was about man's relationship to the natural world.
A world that we collectively felt in 2018 as the hottest year in recorded history. Our production needed to move to the southern tip of this planet just to be able to find snow.
Climate change is real, it is happening right now. It is the most urgent threat facing our entire species, and we need to work collectively together and stop procrastinating.
We need to support leaders around the world who do not speak for the big polluters, but who speak for all of humanity, for the indigenous people of the world, for the billions and billions of underprivileged people out there who would be most affected by this.
For our children’s children, and for those people out there whose voices have been drowned out by the politics of greed. I thank you all for this amazing award tonight. Let us not take this planet for granted.
 
I do not take tonight for granted. Thank you so very much.

HAAAAAAALP !

Hi all,
 
I will keep this brief,
 
As you've all probably noticed Piranha hasn't been around much lately, this is due to a number of reasons which I won't go into, so with a heavy heart he has decided that it would be best for the community to step down from his leadership role and hand the reins over to me.
 
This isn't my first rodeo, and I'm sure further down the line I may make mistakes, possibly big mistakes, and bad decisions that not many people may agree with. Nevertheless what I can bring to the table is openness, transparency and hopefully stability.
 
There are a few areas that I will be looking to improve on; clarity of roles, community engagement and most importantly communication within staff.
 
I hope that you will all back me through this difficult period and be patient with me in trying to turn this community around.
 
Remember, if you have any ideas/suggestions please bring them to us, we are always looking to improve.
 
Lastly, I would like to thank @PiranhA for his contribution and wish him all the best for his future endeavours.

I have been in touch with Oderus's brother Richard, and his extended family from Brazil. It has been quite the experience swapping stories with them, using GOOGLE translate for Portuguese.  His brother laughed to tears when I told him the time Ody gambled with PUBG lootboxes and won a miniskirt that he sold for hundreds of dollars on the Steam marketplace. Almost a month later, and it still does not feel real. He was the best friend I ever had that I sadly never met in person. His loss has depressed me greatly. Gaming just is not the same anymore. We come for the games, but we stay for our friends. 
This is the very moment I met Oderus, before I knew the rules on teamkilling (to protect friendlies); there was a troll sniping friendlies on Stratis Alpha I&A, I performed some counter sniping and won Oderus's respect. It is good to hear his voice again... Watching this is making me tear up at work, alone in the office on third shift..

Your all way too kind , we all knew Jeff as a great dude and will be missed by all in this community you are apart of, I apologize for his sudden departure and as his roommate and best friend. If you are ever in the area of Massachusetts hit me up and we can burn one for Oderus,  I'll make sure to be available for anyone who wants to talk about Jeff , if you have any interest in attending his services his family will be planning it in the next few weeks so reach out to me and we can exchange info

Time to locky lock this Do not post just to post plz 

We've shared so many memories with Ody,
 
 
If you didn't know him, he's the kinda guy to bring people together buying gaming bundles for his friends to join him in whatever crazy adventure he could find next, payday, life is feudal, red solstice, dayZ, Mount+Blade.... this list goes on. We'd joke about him rage quitting but that feisty personality that always fought for what was fair for the people is the oderous I love. Equally he's a chap you could sit down and chill with, watch some youtube playlists (including who killed captain alex, world star, failarmy!) and I'm sure a few of you reading this have fond memories of that! Our inside joke was that we'd share "sea chanties" with each other (which were actually just grime, hip hop and similar tunes!).
 
I'm gonna miss you Jeff... all of our crew will... 
Peace...

I've been messing with the new RHS update for a few hours now so I figured I might as well do something productive;
 
So I've made a list of the new content that could be added to AWE (to save someone's time hopefully).
(This isn't a full changelog, just a list of what could be nicely implemented into AWE)
 
 
 
US Armed Forces
+ New Army Combat Uniform (UCP)
+ Eagle MBAV body armours for USSOCOM
+ New sexy, custom modelled HGU-56/P pilot helmets (so many variants but adding them would make for some nice customisation)
+ New sexy, custom modelled ACVS-H tanker helmets
+ SI Ballistic 2.0 goggles
+ Shemaghs + Goggles
+ RHS M3 MAAWS (slight differences from TF47, however it seems that TF47 is no longer required other than M136-CS)
+ Cool new Caiman MRAPs (alot nicer than the current MRAPs in my opinion)
+ Aimpoint T1
+ G33 magnifier
+ M4A1 PIP (Wodland)
+ HK416 14.5 new camouflage variants
+ AFG grip (Woodland)
+ M552 optic (Woodland)
+ New G17 attachments
+ M855/6 ammunition (a personal favourite item of the update)
+ Some really nice new textures for the MRZR, adding woodland camo and muddy models
+ A sweet new SOCOM version of the M1078A1 truck (Standard: https://i.imgur.com/ygxyTFA.jpg / SOCOM: https://i.imgur.com/0XscLfs.jpg)
 
 
RU Armed Forces
+ The unholy Mig-29
+ Multiple new AK-74 varrients (most adding RIS rails)
+ A few new AKM varrients (most adding RIS rails)
+ Spec. Ops. PB 69P pistol
+ New optics (1P87 / EKP-8-02 / EKP-8-18)
+ TGP-V2 new SVD suppressor
 
 
"Green" Armed Forces
+ M93 (3-Colour Desert)
+ ALICE Webbing
+ TT-33 pistol (could be added for Russian faction)
+ Multiple Czechoslovakian 'Sa vz. 58' rifles (could also be added into Russian faction)
+ The Fugly Mosin (very fun for Spetsnaz)
+ An IZh-18 12 gauge break-barrel shotgun (The RU faction don't have a shotgun so maybe this would be fun)
+ The ALICE Backpack (nice for both RU and US forces)
+ PASGT helmet (3-Colour Desert)
 
 
Serbian Armed Forces
+ Mig-29 Pilot Overalls
(Really not much that could be added to AWE, SAF got basically nothing this update)
 
 
Additional Notes
+ There's many new vehicle customisation options and varients that could be used
+ There's many fixes too, such as the C-130's invisible propellers
+ The large majority of RHS vehicles are now capable of using Dynamic Loadouts
+ (Full changelog can be found here: http://www.rhsmods.org/)
 
If I've missed anything or if anyone has any comments and questions, please, feel free to post a reply. RHS updates their mod rarely, but surly, so discussion over the changes comes few and far between.
 

 
CLASSNAMES
(I have not added ALL the classnames for each new item since some may not be suited for AWE, according to previous discussions and not necessarily my own opinion (such as the new pink pilot helmets). However, it would be a shame to see some of the new helmets left out.

Figured as much, I'll get on it and add it to the post.

A lot easier would be to use Revo's 3DEN Enhanced for a moment, and edit the Load Coefficient. That way, you could also edit each unit / role individually.
E.g. While a regular rifleman has a load coefficient of 1, an autorifleman would be trained to run around with some extra weight on his body, so his coefficient could be 0.8. In the end, because of the way ArmA uses a single stamina level regardless of role (AFAIK !!), they'd both have the same amount of stamina in the field.
 

Not sure that being a trained gunner is important, your real life scenarios make perfect sense without needing to back them up.
 
Regars the limitations; take a vehicle, take a friend or pick a lighter setup. You can carry a ridiculous amount of 6.5 100rnd mags for the MX-SW, I think I was easily toting about around 1500 rounds of ammo, which is pretty impressive for a solo person and allows you to lay down some impressive suppression (not that suppression really does anything in Arma).
 
In real life an AT soldier would also have support carrying rockets etc, or a vehicle to supply them, but in arma you can carry exactly 3 a weapon and some gear. I have a choice, take 3 titan missiles, ask a buddy or grab a vehicle - I tend to do the latter.
 
It's a pick up and play server so the supply chain doesn't work as there is little coherency, though you may find others willing to help in that regard.
 
Counterpoint to what I have said of course is, its a pick up and play server, so why restrict weight, and not allow people to carry more rockets ammo boxes etc? and the answer is we used to allow that and AOs went down faster than they came up with one man armies laying waste to them (anyone remember the VR suit abuse?)
 
 

Something to consider here, visual mods, such as blastcore will alter what the player sees, however they don't change what the AI see's, therefore it provides a false sense of security. This is the big issue, as smokes which would be used to provide cover, may not provide any at all, which will cause players to be frustrated to why they died.

My personal experience of these mods is the reason I've voted no. 
It's impossible to test something like this under every circumstance - and if the mods are made optional, there is the potential for a tactical advantage under some potentially unknown circumstances.
Sure, vanilla sounds aren't perfect - but at least we all know we're hearing the same things (speakers or headphones permitting)
If they are made mandatory to address that issue, there is the potential for impact on performance for people over a personal taste in sound which I just don't think is worth the risk.
 

Mechanical keyboards arent that expensive just look good and they are much beter for gaming

Sry but its not that the batteries suck you just picked 1 off the worse brands there is in the PC world 

I feel you, been there myself, but People will be people, how much energy I want to put down in order to set things straight, is up to the individual. For newcomers reading this thread, this ain't everyday struggles. The players make the awe experience no matter what the rules are. Sometimes it's a good composition, other times not that much.

You are mixing 3 diferent voice systems up wich is common use for players new to tfar 
 
they way you should continu to use voice is 1 u use capslock for radio  and 2 u use your TS PTT for direct coms you might have noticed that when you enter the server with tfar TS switches your ts chanel and mutes every one in there tis is done by Tfar because they work together 
 
The whole Arma3 voice system you can forget on AWE or any tfar server because thats disabled 
 
Hope you understand
