A few months ago I made this post: Nothing has happened since then BUT! Now that we have Stratis back in business would it be possible to get this song added to the spawn screen for 10-20 seconds?

Would be cool but the do they really want more people running around with Nazi flags on there faces or other shit like that?.

No, malden is the map I am doing the testing on because its a nicer backdrop than altis, the map it will actually be on is not yet decided. That is not to say I don't want to have it on Malden, just that we are yet to consider what map is the best for launching on.

Wasteland Stratis Version 3.0.0 UPDATE In the event of any catastrophic errors or problems on initial release, we may revert back to the previous version. Today we are are making our long awaited return to Stratis along with a host of other assorted balance changes to reduce anti-fun strategies and improve the general experience. You should also notice a moderate to large performance increase compared to both Malden and our previous Stratis build At a personal level i would like to apologize for the delay since last update, I have been very busy of late with real life commitments/university work, however moving forward I am hoping to be able to make small/progressive updates every week or two to improve the server instead of big updates with longer in between. From the entire wasteland staff: We hope you enjoy the update and the server Development N.B. This list of changes is not everything, it’s just what I felt were the most significant changes General Changes - Added -STRATIS Added -Guaranteed AA vehicle for all money shipments medium and above Added -All variants of the van/ambulance added to the vehicle store Added -Demining drone, carrier drone (transfer items) and medic drone to the vehicle store under helicopters (for 10k, 2k, 2k respectively) Added -Added console logging of more in game events to assist administrators Added -Added significantly more items to general stores Added -Roadblock missions Added -A large number of back end optimizations which should hopefully both reduce load on the server and the client (Will hopefully improve FPS for everyone) Tweak - Adjusted damage model for jets to make them more susceptible to ground based armaments Tweak -Adjusted ammo and cost of Falcon UAV to reduce long range spam potential Tweak -Price changes on various other assorted vehicles Tweak -Reduced time between completing 1 mission and the next of the same category spawning (now only 2 mins between for all types vs 5,10,5) Tweak -Increased AI difficulty slightly Tweak -Increased number of vehicles in every level of money shipments (to make them more difficult) Tweak -Increased Rewards for all levels of money shipment (now 25k,50k,75k,100k for small/med/large/huge respectively) Tweak -Various map/Performance Optimizations (removed many performance heavy props that served minimal purpose) Tweak -Adjusted Weather Effect probabilities Tweak - Reduced back end load of server antihack to assist server performance Tweak -Misc Main configuration changes Tweak -Added more AI to side and main missions (Now 5,10,15 from 4,7,12) Tweak - Updated staff list on load in panel as well as WL mod app status to OPEN Tweak - Fixed listed server restart times in the notification popup (in AEST) Tweak - Removed all references to the supporter system Tweak - Changed supporter button to "cosmetics" button Tweak - Moved Aircraft Carrier Tweak - Adjusted admin menu options slightly Tweak - Cleanup of vehicle wreckages now occur slightly more often Tweak - Assorted Bugfixes Deleted - Several Capture areas Deleted - Malden Finding any Issues or bugs?

Name: Bow Callsign: K05W Rank: Leading Senior Constable Training Completed By: [L04W] Josh Gluesniff Why do you deserve a promotion? (50 Words min): I have been extremely active the past month and have worked my best to continue participating and contributing in the APD. Either that be on patrol during GD or detective work, assuming CO or training and guiding other members or civilians. I believe im capable in the extra duties and responsibilities that come along with the rank of sergeant and i am confident in my ability and knowledge as a officer. I desire to be promoted to extend my abilities to preform and improve myself as well as assist in other areas or further contribute where it is needed. I can confidently reassure that i am able to fulfill the tasks that come with being a sergeant as i have previously shown through my time with the APD and as a old command team rank, even to current date. This is shown through my participation in the detectives and GD patrol, through processing and interactions with other officers and civilians in game, and through training and communicating with officers in other areas that require attention. This is why i believe that i deserve the promotion and desire to be apart of the junior command in the near future. Who would recommend you for a promotion? Hopefully it is fair to say everyone i have communicated or patrolled with. I know a lot of the detectives would support me and a good deal of the common GD folk

Sergeant Promotion Application Name: Slep. Callsign: K10E Rank: L. Snr. Constable Training Completed By: [L01W] Kiwisniper Why do you deserve a promotion? (50 Words min) I want to be able to train more officers and have the extra responsibility that comes with being a Sergeant. I also want to get closer to getting a Command team role (Junior or Senior), to help shape the APD's development. As a Sergeant, I would be able to do much more to assist in situations and GD in general (An example of this: Being able to give Highway Patrol units a Hatchback Sport instead of an SUV, so they can get around quickly in the event of needing to regroup or move to a bank situation), I enjoy training people and seeing them progress rank wise and skill wise. And that is why I wish to be a Sergeant. Who would recommend you for a promotion? Hopefully everyone I have worked with in the APD: ( @nclem @kiwisniper @Oozle @Augnov @Josh death @Bow @CAT1738 @Bang1324 @Mitch @Daywalker @Pezza )

Avorion.

Yes a Life Server on different map would be great

What about a Tanoa Life server?

lest we forget

I am starting up 'Bring back Cosby Sweater' Back in the old days (2 years ago) when you spawned in on wasteland, you heard Cosby Sweater, I don't know why but I think wasteland needs it back. If this gets put in at least use the time: 0:52 - 1:25 @James32 @Unit_3397

I heard your that special kid of the forums... if cancer floats ya boat I'll be that soldier..?

I love this idea :)

Malden life will the base map for Strayalife RPG, all the other maps really don't gain much of a player base to keep it alive

ha ha ha I'm ora I'm cool I can get nuclear power thingalings to be flying and orbiting wow I'm ora I can't even dock or orbit anything :(

Could I maybe make a suggestion? I know there are a few people who will agree with me that the main problem here isn't who calls CAS in. The root problem is when CAS isn't needing to be called in, it destroys everything; and when it needs to be called in, it is either doing nothing or destroying everything. My suggestion, and I know of a few voices who will back me up, is to remove the fixed-wing CAS all together. Now I'm not saying we should remove fixed wing AA, we can have two of them instead of one and allow more enemy aircraft to appear more often. To compensate for the lost fixed-wing CAS, I believe it will be more effective to replace it with a Littlebird/Hellcat/Orca light CAS. This then removes the trouble of CAS destroying everything before tanks can get there, it allows the AAA in missions to be a threat that pilots have to be weary of, adding a little more challenge; and gives the tanks a proper position in the server, to destroy the other tanks. I'll leave it up to the admins if they want to remove the rules for calling it in or not, but I believe having the light CAS be given free reign to engage (so long as it's not friendlies) will allow it to support the infantry effectively and swiftly. However, this will need to be watched, and players that TK too often in the CAS helos will probably have to be temporarily blacklisted from that role (or just a general TK ban, whatever is easier). I'm interested to hear your thoughts on this.
