  1. Unfortunately, due to resource limitations, it is not possible to manipulate the terrain of Altis, Stratis, or Tanoa without the source files, of which are held tightly with Bohemia.

    Even if we were capable of accessing the source files (excluding the provided P: Drive map_data in Arma 3 Tools, which is nowhere near enough data to rebuild any of the default terrains accurately), and rebuilt/recompiled the terrain data, every player would still have to download a separate mod in order to play on the server.


    Please feel free to let us know if you have any further suggestions for our Wasteland server :)


  2. The reason they're not in there is the exact reason we put the mortars up to 200k (now down to 100k). Tanks that use long-range MLRS systems are incredibly overpowered on a small island such as Stratis, and could cause devastation to the opposing team if you program the artillery computer to strike the right area. On all of those vehicles, from the artillery computer, you are able to strike the entire island from one place (and way beyond, for that matter.) Park it next to an ammo truck and you've got the full set. Another thing to factor in is the size of the rounds. 230mm of freedom (sandstorm) is what you'd see taking down whole building blocks - to put that into perspective, the mortar uses 82mm rounds.

    If they were implemented, I'd estimate the price to be upwards of 200k, and/or perhaps disabling the artillery computer.

    I know that it will not change a lot but a lot of new players and older perhaps would like to make that list, or strive to be recognised as a top tier players.

     

    just an idea you could trial it and if it doesn't work remove it.

     

    a lot of our players are young so to have your name on the board would bring a lot of pride something for everyone to aim for.

     

    just my opinion.

     

     

    thanks

    Absolutely, I think it's a great idea.

    I've been wanting to include a custom start screen for a while now, our current one is vanilla, and doesn't have any uniqueness.  Once we've updated our Wasteland version (what we're currently working on), we'll be able to shift onto things like this.

    Maybe a list of the Wasteland Veterans as well? @Mozkelby

    The list wouldn't change very often, so perhaps not. But I am intrigued by the idea of including the top-10 players - not that it changes very often either, but as Swordfish mentioned it could drive more competition amongst more active players.

  5. That could work, and might even be a good wee fix for locking the public channels, which seems to have become bit of a norm.

    I get the fact that a lot of people want to make videos with a group minus any further disturbance from random folk entering the channel - without, of course, leaving the Wasteland section of Teamspeak. Something like this could be a good way to resolve that.

    Something we have to factor in though would be the ever-increasing amount of current channels on the Teamspeak, and avoid filling the server with channels that don't seem to get used. If this were to be added in, we'd have to be absolutely sure that they are going to be used.

    Not sure if its already been mentioned else where, but getting some stickers/ magnetic patches in the shop so that we can put on our cars or what not would be a great way of advertising to locals... honestly, 1 out of 6 young people that drive past you are gamers... :) (ok,ok, its just a guess ;P ) 

    Anything that represents advertising our community and to narrow down, our wasteland server, I'm keen. Sorry other folks :p only play wasteland.

    Chuck that beauty on the back and you'll be all set. ;)
