Strayagaming is sadly dying. There are 36 civilians on the server on a Friday night. We believe that if Sydney is brought back as a spawn-able location on the server, it will be a lot more fun and have a lot more players. We also believe that the community (the players) should be able to vote on rules. We think that more rules should be introduced that allows players with rebel and contractor training to go into city limits and more rules that allow combat in those areas. We hope that the Strayagaming staff team that this on board the fixes the server

I do agree sydney should come back but you can't blame the server "dying" on that. I've been working on arma servers since 2015 and every year around this time servers die down as students dedicate more time towards their end of year exams. No need to be dramatic about it.

Hey @2Square, thanks for your post. Over the next little while, a series of Altis Life polls are going to released on the forums for players to have a say in what features are being added, and what changes they would like to see. You can read up more on that here. The best way you can get involved in that process is by posting detailed suggestions in the Altis Life Suggestions forum category, and rallying players to support your post. All suggestion posts are being taken into account when determining the poll content. If you have any questions about the polls, or how we can work with you to create some positive change for the community, come hit me up in TeamSpeak or Discord.

The issue now isn't Sydney, as Connor mentioned, people are dedicating their time to the end of year studies. After the server wiped, it was impossible to get a spot in the 120/120 server. This was also during school holidays. Activity will always bounce around and there isn't much we can do to alleviate that. Changing to Brisbane was a good change, it allowed us to experience some other part of the map while retaining the servers quality. Sure, Sydney was awesome but it had its flaws. We are always looking for feedback and are also open to suggestions either by putting them in the Suggestions sub-forum or as a feature request through the Bug Tracker.

Was introduced not long ago and it turned Straya into Wasteland. There are better ways to improve the server.

I quite like Brisbane, it’s encouraged people to go outside of city. I do miss Sydney tho ?

Who's "we"

The change of City cant be the only thing that is effecting the population you go to remember its currently HSC testing and many people wont be playing due to that.

Update #1 Plane wreck / camp

The money you receive now is actually something to look forward to, you should hop back on and give it a go.

Personally the reason i stopped playing is that the reward of winning a bank or robbing people and getting into fights is just not enough for the time and effort you put into the game to fund the gear to do the things that made stray fun.

it aint ever gonna change until the server dies out the server is mainly cop based always and has been always will be its only a matter of time now before its full dead the old straya the sydney straya was aids but better

Going back to sydney makes me miss it lol nostalgic as ****

SF my guy

BRING BACK SYDNEY!

Very true, I had the same thought that you just said. Just because the server main city has been moved from Sydney to Brisbane won't necessarily have an impact on the server growth. New players won't even know of "Old Sydney" Well said about the Exams Connor. I'm not saying I don't like Sydney I loved it but I think it is time for the server to move on and people get used to new stuff. Connor has been working hard on updates for the better good of the community I think people will get used to the new server and after the exams are over it will go back up.

Very true and well said.

To go into Specifics, I hate that there are decoy's, I dislike the fact that they are in an open field as if nothing is gonna go wrong, I severely hate the fact that striders and ifrits take HE rounds and or 50.cal rounds with little damage (this also includes close 120mm HE rounds.) It might be just me but i have bad luck trying to do this mission, but normally when firing close proximity HE rounds I'd expect results to disable wheeled targets, unless it just so happens that the objective vehicle is experimental and has bullet proof wheels (Nudge Nudge ?.) But honestly i just don't like this mission, the vehicle one is fine but this one just ain't fun. But a few things that could improve the mission..... 1. The target is located in a remote town (As an example Nifi,) the town is blocked off by 2 road block's to divert civilian's and to stop oncoming threats, roadblocks consist of a Rifle squad sandbags or Barriers and a MRAP (75% Skill,) 3 patrols roaming the town one on the hill side one further south and one between the roadblocks these are MAX skill guard squads or AT teams. 2. The Target has sent a representative to the town to inspect the town and visit the town leader for "cooperation" (AT GUNPOINT,) the representative has intel (On the body and or Laptop) on the whereabouts on the mastermind/Commander. This can be guarded by Guard squads MAX skills etc. 3. Once the Intel has been found, it suggests that the Commander is nearby to wait for results, guarded by Vipers inside a Bunker 1-2km out (AKA the swamp nearby,) can be fortified as hell Tanks, AA, troops, MRAPS, anything goes here. The objective is capture the commander, 2 options, have the commander do his usual run away, or 2 have the compound fortified as heck and make it much more difficult and you must capture him but he won't runaway, and deliver him to HQ/Main base for Questioning. This is my opinion so whatever goes I don't care either way but i would like some more complex missions.

more of a meme since squad is more catered to his view compared to the server also im not staff anymore

I think it would be a nice idea if the rebels won fed they could take over the gold bars in a heli. Mainly because it's a 20 KM drive so AL would'nt turn into truck simulator 2018.
