Hello everyone, I'd like to first off say hello to this community. Many of you won't know me as I used to go by the name Tulgieth, I played Wasteland mostly and never used the forums, mostly a lurker. But I've been working on an idea and below I'll explain as much as my 5:00am morning brain can remember.. I'm making this post, in the hopes it grabs the attention of @LuckyB33f @Connor. @James32 @Red @Fitz @Lotza @jacob potty @M9' for something new and fresh, while maybe not a long term game-mode it could turn into one with a lot of replay value. My proposal is a game mode called "Predator". Yes it's exactly what it sounds like, a game mode based of the iconic movie. The way the game would work, is there would be a total of 20-30 players, 1-4 Predators (with a load-out designed to replicate their advantage in the movie), 16-20 Survivors who only have an empty pistol with a flash light, and 1 player whom we would call "Arnold" He would spawn with a relatively simple load-out allowing him to assist the survivors but not totally threaten the Predator. (no GPS or compass for the Survivors, Arnold could perhaps have a compass) The game is set at night time (on the Tanoa map) with very thick fog, giving a challenging atmosphere, over time (roughly 30 minutes per game) the fog begins to clear to give you around 30-40m of clear viewing distance. The end goal for the Predator is to kill all Survivors and Arnold, the end goal for the Survivors and Arnold is to escape the small island (Likely a scripted helicopter landing) The Survivors will be able to loot various areas for useful tools and small arms weapons to help fend of any Predators but this loot will be fairly rare. If anyone from StrayaGaming would like this idea looked into by higher ups please make it known on the forums so maybe this could end up being a real thing. I would love to answer any questions and take ideas. Below I will post a few concept ideas, and various island designs I've been working on so far. PS: This game mode would be totally vanilla using the Tanoa map, requiring no mods. (Game is set at night in heavy fog) (Concept art / loading image) (Custom ruins) (Small ship wreck used by the homeless of the island) (Small homeless cave) (Top down view of the island) (Scale view of the island)

StrayaGaming Altis Life - Shaping the Path Forward Hi all, As you are undoubtedly aware, our Altis Life server has just undergone a full economy wipe. With the wipe, a variety of changes were applied to help balance all factions, and to reduce the daily occurring chaos in Kavala (Sydney). You can read more about the wipe in the changelog here. Altis Life is perhaps the most successful StrayaGaming server, and as such we owe it to the players to ensure that their voices are heard on the direction we take the server moving into the future. We acknowledge in the past that people have felt like they were unable to have a direct say in the direction of the server, so through this new initiative we hope we can correct this and allow everyone to feel like their voices are heard and they're able to contribute in a positive way. The Polls To ensure that the changes being made and features being added align with player interests, a series of polls every fortnight will be held on the forums to determine what features are being added, removed or changed. The poll content will be determined by the staff team, based on commonly received feedback and suggested changes covering all areas of AL gameplay. How can I get involved? Getting involved is quite simple, all you need to do is make your voice heard! Talk to those whom you play with, and share your thoughts on the forums, discord or with a staff member. If a staff member hears a good idea they will propose it for addition to the poll. What will be in the polls? At the end of every fortnight in the lead up to the each poll staff will culminate the best ideas they've heard over the previous 2 weeks for use on that fortnight's poll. The questions on each poll could be on everything from the location of a bank, to what guns are included at the gun store! They will be entirely based off of the suggestions put forward by the players. Do I have to vote, and are they anonymous? You are not required to vote, however if you wish to have your say counted in the direction of the server we suggest you do! All polls are anonymous, so feel free to vote honestly. Are previous forum suggestions being taken into account? Yes. Any good suggestions we have already noticed from the past will be taken into account. If you're unsure if your previous suggestion was taken into account and feel it is still necessary then feel free to make the suggestion again on the forums or talk to a staff member. How long will this be running? In the beginning we will be trialing this idea to gauge how it works and the contribution it makes to the server. If all goes well we hope to continue with the polls indefinitely. I have more questions. Who can I talk to? Altis Life Staff would be more than happy to answer your questions.

Name: Colgate Toothpaste Player ID (If Blacklisted): 76561198120568768 Date of Disciplinary Action: 3/6/18 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: The case that Daywalker blacklisted me for was for that reason, I understand that the punishment is justified due to rule breach but at the time I thought it wasn't that big of a deal. In my previous blacklist appeal it was said that I "attempted to deceive us (police) by pretending to be a command team officer" which i do not remember doing at all. Any other information: I stopped playing a couple days before the wipe for the fact of losing everything, since the wipe has happened I've only been on the server twice for under a hour as a civilian and its gone stale. This blacklist if accepted would not only mean I get to play cop and as it would be a completely different experience to how i use to play at Sydney bridge but also would mean I don't leave the community due to lack of interest since the wipe.

i understand this is a suggestion and all but how is turning the trader into a small safezone going to do anything at all? it takes 30 seconds to sell items to traders and the player would be robbed as soon as they left the safezone. if anything the player has a much higher chance of being robbed at the processor simply due to it taking 100 times longer to process items then it does to sell them. personally not a fan of this idea although i agree that something does need to be done for the solo players who dont want to join a rebel group but still want to do runs etc (without cramming the map with safezones), what that something is, i have no idea

too bad 1 rocket would destroy it anyway

I I completely agree

A weapons convoy mission is something I could see working, the police being alerted when one begins and the trucks location every few minutes. The mission would be high risk high reward with it taking a hefty amount of cash to begin. I also like the sound of @Jays idea.

I personalty dont agree with adding back navids and SPMG's. i also think we should remove the APDS Lynx as well. but everything else i like. Keep up the good work

Please god dont add Navids back

Bring BACK MALDON enough space for everyone!

Name: Robert Hill Callsign: K38B Rank: Senior Constable Training Completed By: @Michael Steiner List all Pub Slot Inductions you have done: @Anton Creed, @Chips, @DEAD, @Mark, @AXTIONGOD, @harry0man, @Donkey @Puncher, @Critters, @Flynn, @Omiua, @dense, @Jimmy Blackman Why do you deserve a promotion? (50 Words min) Because I believe it would benefit the department and myself because it gives me the chance more responsibilities and giving me the chance to help the lower ranks with anything that needs to be done. Some other reasons why I deserve promotion is that I’ve dedicated all of my time to the department and it gives me extra powers on ts3 which I desperately need since I’m currently in the academy division and really enjoy giving inductions to the new players which would allow me to properly give the lower ranks their tags correctly. Who would recommend you for a promotion? @FarmerGeorge98, @geera, @Mr Hyde

Now i'm pretty sure that everyone who does copper/iron runs, will/have dealt with people (better would of been used, but in a couple of swear words) camping the trader, and you comply to their demands. But the Question is why could we just put a safe one there. Positive Well it could help new people or old time players, who dislike gangs or like to solo themselves. It will make those robbers think better to wait till there leave to safe zone to get there money It could force them to engage the person en-route to the trader or leaving the Copper/Iron mines and make them processes the metal themselves Give people a chance to earn some money who are new to the server More fun and better role play Will stop trolls and what-not Negatives There will people running to a safe zone to save there gear or money Could be a influx of more money on the streets (more cars, helicopters, guns, etc.) Some other server side things that may impact on the server People camping outside of Trader Maybe more people coming to help desk with people breaking the server rules etc. Now those are good points and all (could added more but couldn't think of any) and the safe zone doesn't have to big just enough to encase a small area to give people a chance to have fun and play without trolls always there camping cause there to lazy to go out there and role play with people
