    Hi All, There are quite a few projects that our staff have been working on behind the scenes, some are nearing completion, some have just barely started. In this news type post, I'll be going through some of these projects as well as a few updates to existing services. AltisLife First up in AltisLife, without a doubt our largest and most successful game server. We know there are many areas and problems that need to be addressed in Altis Life and we definitely are working on them. The AltisLife staff team are taking their time to ensure that we get as much of it correct as we can the first time around. A few key points that I want to mention: There have been rumours spread around of a wipe happening on the server, I can confirm that this definitely is the case. The Altis Life team is working on some major changes that hopefully will dramatically improve the gameplay for all factions, once complete and ready to be released this major update will occur with an economy wipe. We will give the players atleast a weeks notice before the wipe. It's not happening now so don't waste your money! Players with a ban of less than 2 months will be able to submit an appeal for clemency shortly before the major release date, I'll put another post up about that when it's time. We will be introducing a narrative that will, over time, allow us to alter the map and other features. This is to try and encourage roleplay and to keep players and the meta moving around, instead of sitting stagnant as it currently is. This is not a strict narrative, and it is up to players to decide whether they want to use it in-game or not. I have requested the AltisLife staff team to create some different narratives for me, I'll be reviewing them with James and Lotza. Together we will decide on one and reveal it prior to the major release. Currently the Altis Life rules have some ambiguous meanings and staff as well as players can often have a hard time interpreting them. I am looking at creating a sort of dictionary to explain what some of the buzz words mean, this should help players understand what 'RDM', or 'Roleplay' actually means within context on our server. When it comes to punishment I and a lot of the management team see that sometimes a ban just isn't effective enough for some players, they will just come back doing the same or similar offence. Because of this AL staff team will be revisiting the punishment system and looking over how it can be changed to better encourage players to follow the rules. One critical point I can mention is a monetary/item fine for certain situations, either in lieu of a ban, or complementary with one. We have worked on a landing page for AltisLife that will be release prior to the major release, it will allow AltisLife players to view only AltisLife content and provide ease of access to various AltisLife related features. An image is included at the bottom of this post. Forums There are only two points here so I'll keep it short. James and I have worked on a new default theme that should be a huge improvement on the current theme, and gradually over-time we will phase out the old one. I'll include an example image below. At the same time as the new theme, we will be restructuring and altering the forum to give it a cleaner look as well as improving user experience. There will be a larger post on this on the 26th or the 27th. I have an estimated release date for these two items of the 28th GameServers Lastly we have our new Game Servers, Antistasi, Squad, Post Scriptum. Currently these are all considered pop-up servers, I encourage you all to have a try of them and provide us with any feedback you have. As is with all of our new servers, we plan to have them up as long as they have players. Antistasi: Antistasi is a persistent complete map mission, it is heavily centred around Guerrilla tactics and provides players with a unique experience fighting against foreign invaders as a group of Rebels. In our mission, players fight against AAF and CSAT for control over the island of Altis. This server is whitelisted, to get whitelisted you will need to talk with one of our staff members on teamspeak. Required Mods: CBA_A3, Task Force Radio Optional Mods: JSRS, Blastcore More information can be found on the public GitHub page. https://github.com/A3Antistasi/antistasi-1.x/tree/1.8.0 Squad: Squad is a combat realism first person shooter game that focuses on providing players as much of an authentic experience as possible, this is done through communication, team play, and a heavy emphasis on unit cohesion mechanics, large-scale coordination, tactics and planning. More information about the game can be found on their website. https://joinsquad.com/ Post Scriptum: Post Scriptum is a WW2 simulation game, focusing on historical accuracy, large scale battles, a difficult learning curve and an intense need for cohesion, communication and teamwork. More information about the game can be found on their website. http://postscriptumgame.com/ Create a new thread in the appropriate forum if you have any questions, or send a message in the discussion channel on discord.

    Name: Colgate Toothpaste Player ID (If Blacklisted): 76561198120568768 Date of Disciplinary Action: 20/5/2018 What Disciplinary Action was placed against you: Blacklist Who were you Disciplined by: Daywalker Reason for Disciplinary Action against you: Joined Sydney LAC when i wasn't cop Why the appeal should be accepted: I understand that I broke the rules and a blacklisted was definitely deserved, I do feel though since the event I have become more familiar with the rules of the server. I do joke and laugh quite a lot so when i joined for a quick chat i didn't think it was that big of a situation, the blacklisting is a wake up call to take more parts of the server serious and to be given another chance would mean I would do less talking and more listening

    Name: STITCH Date of Disciplinary Action: 12/24/2017 What Disciplinary Action was placed against you: blacklist from detective Who were you Disciplined by: detective commander at the time Reason for Disciplinary Action against you: I raided a house as civ Why the appeal should be accepted: in all honesty the ban was placed due to ignorance and I take and accept full responsibility of that, there was some things that were uncertain to me at the time, I believed as a detective if I had leave I could raid and do rebel stuff, so 1. I thought I got leave from bow I just assumed.. that was my fault, 2. I raided the house and didn't clearly read that as a detective u cant raid a house, yet again my fault. and lastly 3. I didn't know that the house I raided was going to be raided by the cops, but some people claimed I knew he was going to be raided if it was said I may not have heard or had just forgotten, and I also didn't have access to see what other people posted on the database. but any way I believe that I can redeem myself, as I have never really done anything bad in the APD apart from that one incident more then 6months ago, and I have had time to learn from that mistake, and I duly apologize for my actions even though I know apologies wont get me umbanned I do need to say that I am sorry and if I don't get unblackisted then I understand and will move forward. but I really did like the RP aspect as a detective as some of you may know im a heavy RP'er, but yeah.

    Name: SilentKiller Callsign: K31M Rank: Snr. Constable Training Completed By: Sgt. LM (Polair Division) List all Pub Slot Inductions you have done: @LT Viper, @Darian, @Luca, @Inyx2, @Brodee, @Lukie Walker, @Mick Why do you deserve a promotion? (50 Words min) I Believe that i deserve the promotion, because of my dedication to the APD, I have gained more skills being CO on GD, Bank and hostage Sit and would like the opportunity to add people who have broken Atlis Laws to the wanted list so the lower ranks can finish there processing faster and get back to work. I have also gained more knowledge and skills operating in POLAIR and assisting SRT and Dect. with there Joint ops. and Training, i hope to achieve this rank because i like to train more people of the APD to fly Helicopters in a safe and control manner whilst still following Polair Protocal's. Who would recommend you for a promotion? @Sparrow. @JJ_ROOOD @Micheal Steiner

    Firstly I want to say that i'm not sure if this would be possible but if it is I think it could really add to combat and gameplay as a whole. The idea I have in mind is not to have civs being able to craft tanks and super powerful vehicles but to be able to craft fun and balanced vehicles. Two vehicles that I think fit this criteria well is the armed Qilin (http://armedassault.wikia.com/wiki/Qilin) with it's 6.5 minigun and the UH-80 Ghost Hawk helicopter (http://armedassault.wikia.com/wiki/UH-80_Ghost_Hawk) with it's duel 6.5 miniguns. It's not too hard to kill the people operating the vehicle in either vehicle and the weapons on them are not overly powerful. How to craft I'm not going to go into specific crafting recipes just give my general thoughts on how hard they should be to craft. My aim here is to make them only really worth it to pull out in situations where another party like the police would be likely to use armed vehicles, for example fed or city takeover. My idea here is to add a fourth tier of steel (like re-enforced steel or something) This could be crafted with 1x Hardened steel and gold bars or diamonds. This would hopefully make the armed Qilins worth at least 2m while Ghost Hawks at least 5m. Just a thought want to see what the community thinks and if it would be possible to implement. Cheers
