and bens broken GN but at least we had them hahah

So if that "ruins game-immersion" i guess Norway should just sell their new F-35s cause they're American and that ruins my immersion...

AWE has never been 100% serious play. It has always been a place for Team-play and fun. Immersion on AWE has MOSTLY been provided by user made missions such as Karate's Prometheus series.

@Noah_Hero i have never had this issue where i heard someone complain that i'm ruining there game immersion because i'm using a BAF uniform as US 

But AWE is not Milsim

This...

The line is common sense. US and British factions are apart of NATO where they commonly share assets. Where as the SU-25 is Russian and would not be used by BLUFOR.

I also remember when AWE was good...

AWE's Arsenal has always been relaxed and personally I prefer it that way. This is because it allows people to personalise themselves and makes them different. Gamenights have always been the way for people to play as a set faction and quite frankly we don't have enough of them. Admittedly the arsenal is jam packed full of stuff, And from what I have seen majority of people pick RHS assets over CUP assets, With the removal of CUP it would not only reduce the mod size but also reduce the amount of stuff in the arsenal.

@Noah_Hero not the reason why i play modded, i play modded because i want the IRL assets and as well i'm so board of the vanilla you play for a bit you have used all of the assets which vanilla has to offer, which in my opinion gets boring very quickly.  That is why all i want changing is the rid of CUP and bringing back TF 47.

Move the mod pack to steam workshop, I don’t care about the mod pack size I care about having a duplicate of said mod because we rename it to with AW_    
 
Eu3 was never a milsim and it will never be a milsim, Restrictions has push many players away.

get rid of cup add tf 47 launchers jobs a goodin ?

The Tag #ReviveAWE has been a success. We managed to get 10 - 12 People on Wednesday Evening. And we are hoping for more people to come and Join us.

I've been long at thought for quite some time now about stepping away and it isn't just from AW, but from many aspects surrounding the gaming community. I've got ongoing IRL issues which really need tackling and where I thought coming into the gaming community (namely Arma 3 & AW) brought me a bit of solace I think it's having more a negative impact than anything. Turns out it was just a temporary escape. Burying heads in the sand is not a good option. 
I don't want to delve into personal reasons or anything like that, instead I'd rather just say thanks to everyone for the fun I've had being around the AW community specifically.
@Xwatt and the others involved in giving me the opportunity to become spartan and public mod, I really had a great time in those roles even though it was a brief spell, hopefully I did the roles well enough for you guys. @Lindi for the assistance and added fun during that brief tenure, as well as @itsmemario and @Geb.
 
The list is far too long to tag everyone in, but for anyone who i've played alongside on AWE over the past two years then know that i've had some of the best times in those sessions, and i'll truly miss it. 
 
It's been great being part of this community, I wish everyone the best ❤️❤️❤️.
 

Only a few months too late to be a topical meme and a few months too soon to be trailer materiel:
 
 

It is with a heavy heart that I am officially announcing what will likely be my complete departure from AhoyWorld. As I have mentioned to some, I will be stepping down from the Enhanced moderator team on June 19; this will be paired with an indefinite hiatus from the community as well, though I fully intend to return when I can.
 
In December of 2017, I enlisted in the United States Navy, with my boot camp date set for June 20th of 2018. After boot, I will be going straight to my respective school, and will likely be deploying after that (this will easily encompass the next 3 years). I will be limiting any computer usage strictly to studying during this period. 
 
To those members of the Enhanced realm of AhoyWorld reading this now, thank you for being my friends and family. I have tried my best to be a player, a moderator, a teacher, and a counselor; and if nothing else I hope I have succeeded in being another human being that you were always glad to talk to. I have spent a good 1,700 hours on Enhanced alone, and have seen many people come and go. Throughout the three years I've spent racking up those hours, though, my mind has never changed that both the server and AhoyWorld in general are diamonds in the rough that is the rest of the Arma 3 community. Nobody will ever be able to duplicate the truly unique things that you all share. 
 
I will still be active up until the 19th. I am just making this notice ahead of time so that I have a proper buffer to wrap things up with, and so that I'm not rushing to get a message out right before I have to leave. You'll still see me on Enhanced as often as always, and on TeamSpeak so long as I'm awake.
 
Regards,

Hi all,
I've been away from AW for a long time for a number of personal reasons, but am seriously considering coming back to the game and the community. Is AWE still up and running? What maps are mostly being used these days? Have the new Arma 3 mods been implemented?
 
Appreciate any feedback!

Watch until end....
 
 

Sorry for the late response on this; I think I might have answered this before via TS while we were both on the server Palm, though informally.
 
Both historically and currently the high population times are around 8 PM GMT (20:00) on weekdays (mainly Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays) and any time during the afternoons (GMT again) on weekends. Sometimes it can be a gamble, as a server's middle-term (month-by-month, week-by-week) population can fluctuate. Play it by ear; don't conform your schedule to the server's population heights. 
 
Friday nights get the most attention, obviously; and so we've usually reserved that night for weekly gamenights. For example, our last major gamenight, Nightfall, got up to 23 people at max I believe. Monday nights tend to draw in an average of 10-12 people. Weekends tend to hover at around 10-15 people during the afternoons. 

So it breaks my heart to have to right this, but sadly ex-moderator and member Oderus has sadly passed away.
 
All we know for now is that he got really ill but not much more. I’ve spoken with his brother briefly. 
 
I hope all that knew him and didnt know him will join me in sending him off. 
 
Oderus was one of the nicest gamers id ever met and I truely will miss him.
 
o7 to you brother, rest in peace.

Remember, Left click to build, right click to destroy!

I have been playing AWE for a couple of weeks and it is really the kind of experience i was looking for in Arma 3. 
 
I want to thank you guys for being welcoming of new players, even if i have previous experience in arma. You have helped me to learn the ropes of the roles on this server, and even if i had no idea what i was doing in the beginning, respected the roles and gave your tips to improve myself.
 
Again, thanks for the welcome and ill see you soon ingame!
