Changes to the armour meta Today we have fast tracked some changes into the content patch set to go live at 3pm with hopes that it will reduce the overall use of armoured vehicles on the server while promoting other vehicles and foot combat. With the BI patch to Ifrits shortly after the wipe and the removal of the door animation along with player concern, we feel now is the time to push for change as the armour on armour meta has existed for too long, has grown stale and delivers bad combat. Changes Striders added back and to become the primary rebel vehicle moving them away from the overuse of Ifrits. Ifrits are now priced at 3m for police and 4m for rebel. Slight price increase to Strider/Hunters. Drastically increased fuel consumption for all MRAPS. Increased chop prices of all MRAPS This will be a 2 week trial, everything listed on this post is subject to change. The initial phase is to see how striders hold up as they are an overall weaker vehicle (in both damage resistance and speed). We don't want to remove armoured vehicles, they are both an integral part of gameplay for police and rebel factions, current Ifrit prices are to promote the use of Strider over Ifrit (we are NOT wiping Ifrits from garages), After 2 weeks we will reassess and make changes based on feedback. Prior to commenting on this post, please take a look at damage charts to understand why we feel these changes are needed, (borrowed from Reddit) DAMAGE CHARTS Here Please use this thread to provide VALID feedback on these changes, anything deemed not valid will be hidden. Be sure to check out the devblog for all the new changes and contact DLC content added. Thanks, Bouda & Kat.

Hey there everyone, Today we're releasing our next gameplay update for AL. The goal of this update is to both add a bunch of new guns and gear along with several changes to mechanics that we hope encourage a more enjoyable combat experience. A large component of this is a large rework of MRAPs, which our friendly AL admins discuss here I would also once again like to thank our map dev @Chadd for his hard work!

Kozlice Shotgun and city limits. With the addition of the Contact DLC to the Altis Life server today, a new weapon was added, the Kozlice Shotgun. The long barrel variant is a tad too powerful to keep within city limits so we're restricting its use so it won't see itself inside city limits. To help players mitigate their love affair with shotguns and wanting to use it to kill some cops, we've added the sawed-off variant of the Kozlice to the civillian gun stores which allow players to use the weapon inside city limits to their hearts content. The rule changes are as follows: Old: 2.7 Civilians may not enter city limits with / or use any of the following ; concealing clothing (balaclavas, face masks), assault weapons (anything larger than an SMG or holds more than 30 rounds), armoured apparel (clothing with armour rating, vests that cannot be purchased from a civ store) or rebel vehicles (any vehicle not able to be purchased from civilian stores). New (changed italicised): 2.7 Civilians may not enter city limits with / or use any of the following ; concealing clothing (balaclavas, face masks), assault weapons (anything that cannot be purchased from the red civ gun store), armoured apparel (clothing with armour rating, vests that cannot be purchased from a civ store) or rebel vehicles (any vehicle not able to be purchased from civilian stores). This rule change will go live on Sunday at the 3:00 PM restart.

Hello I'm, well a new member but i have been on the StrayaGaming Invade and Annex for about 4 years now. I really enjoy this community and the people who are in it. I don't play very often, maybe once a day for a couple of hours, and within that time i like to just hang out with some good people and "Shoot the shit". I try to be nice and polite when I'm on the server, so if it sounds like I'm pissed off I'm usually having a go at my cat. (No i don't physically abuse my cat, she can just be annoying sometimes) I play on invade and annex more than anything on Arma 3 because i like the teamwork involved in doing so. I chose to join up on StrayaGaming because i have had the most fun here and the moderators are some pretty cool dudes. The people who i have also met on here can be very interesting to talk to and play with, so i basically cant find as much enjoyment anywhere else really. I'm not one for starting trouble, causing any problems, and i have no intentions on doing so. I'm just here to have a good time with some good people.

Any absence will be notified to a higher up however. Have you ever been banned, kicked or watchlisted from Altis Life at any stage?

Glad your having fun my friend

VTOL's done. A couple of Mohawks and a blackfoot, pretty much done. . There's couple of other things that I may or may not finish anytime soon, who knows. Anyway, I hope you like these in the meantime

Is the new invisible ghillie suit too OP?

That's honestly sad to hear, a lot of the best RPers and funnest RP I've ever seen has been Rebels who put in the effort to roleplay and outwit the cops rather than gun them down

JUST GIVE US MORE EVENTS SOMETHING TO DO

20mil to who ever gets this hat off @JdawgZ and gives it to me. It has to come with video proof

sorry luke to me and probly a few others just cause your a good fragger doesnt mean your a good player maby they would be good or great on a wasteland or koth server but like they are half players to me

here's my 2 cents Sydney has been a mess for years it's been the center of the server for almost 5 years now maybe every now and people go out from Sydney to do drugs or rob banks. Back even when we had 10 people on the server Sydney has been the center of the server due to city been bigger then the others and due to how popular sydney has always been. Maybe Cops and civ should leave Sydney and go some where else but the issue with that is the map is to large and you won't see everyone and then there's no RP really happing and so on so your kind of stuck at a win and a loss so to put it to Basic terms. Everyone leaves Sydney Pro: Not center of attention and people and might encourage RP. people might be able to do more RP situations some where else. Everyone leaves Sydney Con: too big of map for RP server. potential lose of population due to not having a center meeting point or main town. won't see another person for ages due to the scope of the map. Also to add on the AL server has always been about RP but mainly shooting and this has been an issue for ages it should have been a strict RP server it's a role play which means create a person and RP like hell it shouldn't have revolved about shooting people 24/7. Yes SP robbed the banks a lot i think one night they robbed the banks 3X-4X times in one night. but the server has changed alot since i was last on (2 Years ago) staff can't always enforce RP to 90 players a night with the staff only been 10%-15% of the population of Alits life. The amount of Help desk issues the staff deal with on a night basis is crazy. But it's upto the players to make or do what they want with the server as a whole like if most of the pop don't want to RP out of situations and shoot then you can't do much it's up to the Player-base on what wants to happen if the players start Doing More RP situations lay down the guns and don't shoot as much and encourage RP then as time goes on people will notice and it might a change might happen but until then you can't change everyone but it's gotta start with the gangs/cartels/cops and as time goes on the server will change but at the end of the day I can sit here all day telling people suggestions for changing the server but it's upto the players on what they want and the staff/management to enforce and change the rules as they see. but hey I'm just a Old retired Staff member that comes on here once in a blue moon to see what's happing and comment on certain things. Thanks for Reading, Lachlan

all we do is banks? we avoid banks because we get zerged by srt with lvl 5's and mk 200's or asp's. u should play rebel before u comment on it

With men's mental health week upon us, I thought I would reach out and let everyone in the community know that it's not cool to bottle things up. We all have problems and sometimes the best way to deal with them is to talk to someone. Sadly men have the highest rates of suicide, and most of the time a simple chat could have prevented it. So to everyone in StrayaGaming community if you feel sad, alone or just not yourself, talk to someone about it, anyone. I'm always up for a chat Discord - AceWinchester #4637 Teamspeak - AceWinchester Lifeline Australia - 13 11 14 (24 Hours)
