    oh? I'm curious if there's a Zeus player on very often, or if it's pre-planned missions?

     

    Also, is the positions on the enhanced server fluid? (people  go where they're in the mood to go.) or is it more rigid? (people have a designated rank, and you must fill a role suited to that rank?)

     

    The Enhanced server moderators and higher tier staff have Zeus access regularly do some Zeus missions, but the essence of the modded gameplay is mostly tactical, but not Milsim in the sense of set rank and role; but more come as you are, pick something and play towards objectives such as "Destroy Comms Array" as a team.

     

    Hello by the way.

    8. Until it’s resolved taking control of AI and killing players is not permitted it will be classed as teamkilling.

    Look up what ' it's  ' relates to and if it's resolved already.

    The Zeus's job is NOT to punish players for making subjective mistakes, if it were then I assure you the playerbase would be long gone.

    Let me reword then, because I never say that's all they did; but one of the reasons the Spartan is there to make it more realistic, if in reality a person sits on a hill when a helicopter is up he is going to be spotted as well, so that person shouldn't do that or otherwise is making a mistake. In Arma you could sometimes get away with it as the AI is not smart enough that it could simulate real warfare.

    I thought it would be common sense, but I don't see how it's a good idea to change the weather without asking the players first.

    I'd love nature to use common sense and ask me if it could start raining just before I hopped on my bicycle in the morning.

    As I said, weather in Arma is random - having a vote on it wouldn't make sense - and to be honest I like it when it's foggy or raining once in a while, because it's something different and more challenging for a change.

    I think the fundamental issue is still that zeuses are forgetting their primary purpose, to IMPROVE the players experience, not their own.

    I think the fundamental issue is that players directly feel targeted when a Spartan is online, every death, every challenge that they have to face is suddenly one too much.

    Do you have a case of a Spartan improving the his own experience over the experience of others, because if it is in relevance to the weather thing, it's not like Spartans - who are also players - would not get affected by this sort of stuff.

    you can keep your smartass attitude

    I wasn't really planning on getting rid of it, but thanks anyway.

    you know nuttin,you comin up with "assumptions"

    Luckily I know how to let go of frustration and to accept your mistakes instead of blaming them on someone else.
    On the matter of assumptions, what I said is based on what you posted. This means that if you're telling me that they are assumptions; the facts in your post must be biased up to a point that they no longer provide me with the right details to sketch the right environment, but seeing you're complaining you must be providing us with what really happened. Kind of contradictory; don't you think?

    your shitty ZEUS´s that base on no facts

    So what would a non-shitty ZEUS that 'bases on facts?' look like according to you, all you do is complain without providing a solution to your problem.

    Also in the same sentence as calling me out for making assumptions, making the assumption that the Spartans 'don't base on facts?'* ... really?

     

    * On what facts should a Spartan base?

    aaaaaaand we´r back again ....

    Got shot yesterday by a Hellcat that circel´d past 2 AOs for a while,could see its path,couldnt lock it with AA - untill it gone a 2nd time for my ass and,you guess´d it killed me instant with 2 rockets.

    So you didn't move from your position after an armed chopper had spotted you the first time?

     

    2 hours ago, TheScar said:

    Just now again after climbing up a hill hvy loaded as my front tires where out i get wiped by a Hellcat the second i reach a pos to overview AO to get a shot ...

    So you were aware that there was a helicopter, yet you use a slow vehicle to climb up a hill - UP A HILL - and then you complain about getting shot - again.

     

    2 hours ago, TheScar said:

    So how is this enhancing gameplay?

    It's punishing you for the mistakes you are making, so what I'd guess is that you learn from your mistakes.

     

    2 hours ago, TheScar said:

    its clearly not the first time

    Oh, I see.. it has happened before.. you must have learned by now.

    Not.

    Not speaking of the fog on the whole map,the weather changes and all the other shit no one expects

    So with random weather built into Arma, a Zeus randomly changing the weather is suddenly weird as no one expected it? No shit, if a Zeus doesn't change it no-one expects it either.

    Briefing:

    The Iraqis have invaded Kuwait and taken control of vast reaches of land and important oil fields. They have also mobilized their extensive SCUD missile networks for attacks against the world wide coalition along with many armored divisions. Your mission is that of an US Marine Corps Armored Company that is tasked with engaging the Iraqis head on over large tracks of desert against almost insurmountable odds. The time for you mission is coming close but so is poor weather caused by the unpredictable deserts of Kuwait. Push back the advancing Iraqi forces to Baghdad and stabilize the region.

    Hello all,

     

    Saturday the 17th of December leo will be hosting a mission on EU#3, the rough summary for it would be a Defend town vs. Zeus. Extensive description below..

     

    Setting:

    Mission will be played on Chernarus as the CDF National Guard

     

    Slots & special equipment:

    ~~ NEEDS 26 PLAYERS TO RUN PROPERLY ~~

    CMD (4 slots) - Minimal 2

    Alpha (14 slots) - Minimal full

    Bravo (14 slots)

    Charlie (14 slots)

    Hammer & Torch (Total of 6 slots) ~ Using BRDM or T34 at mission start, but will recieve upgrades though the mission.

    MAT 1 & 2 (Total of 6 slots)

    FSG (7 slots) - Minimum 3

    Logi (5 slots) - Needs filled

    Briefing:

    A briefing document will be published later this week, it contains:
    - Limited location info

    - Recent history
    - Starting position


    - Info on how to use signal smoke and signal flares
    - Basic radio setup

     

    Extra info:

    There will be a 5 minute respawn during which spectator mode is enabled.

    Short briefing pre-gamenight for CMD/Zeus (and SLs/TLs, which want to join), this will be explained further soon.

    In-Game briefing for regular infantry.

    Mission time set to two and a half hours max; so it doesn't drag on forever.
    (This mission is entirely dependent on Zeus)

  9. Hello everyone,

     

    I'm guessing it's that time of the year again, where Christmas songs are slowly being played on the radio again, Christmas baubles are being fished out from the attic and the smell of smoking tyres asphalt on is so overwhelming that even Santa would rater come in through the chimney.

     

    That's right; it's time for smoking tyres again and by that I mean; let's race!

     

    As you may or may not have noticed Josh put up a post regarding an Asseto Corsa Winter League earlier today, from what I heard last year it was a lot of fun. As long as you stay on the racing line, that is :P

     

    If you want to check it out, I'll link the post down below and if you don't want to don't start complaining you missed out on all the fun in a couple of weeks!

     

     

    As it also states in the thread, for any questions contact Josh or Oderus.

     

    Good luck on the track and may the best win,

    If you have any questions; you can contact Benjamin Levine or me (MessedUpSmiley); or post your question down below.

  11. Hello EpiCcXxNero2,

     

    - Apply for the Squad XML here if you havent already:

    - If you are already on the XML make sure to have it correctly formatted in your Arma 3 Profile (right top corner of your main menu screen)

     

    Keep in mind that our public servers EU#1 and EU#2 currently have an unknown problem where no SquadXMLs will show up.

    EDIT: Also moved the post to a somewhat more appropriate section.
