Be adviced: Some strong language may occur.

 

I want to bring up an issue mostly about capping points.

 

So..

Currently when capping you get respect (which is for the most part pretty useless) no matter what, and you get Poptabs (what most people are after) in looting crates. The problem I have is the way the rewards gets distributed.

 

- Story Mode (you may skip to the conclution if you dont like reading) -

Once upon a time I decided to go for a Capture point. I roll out in my amazing Quad bike like the champ i am, I scan the capture point from a "safe" area while sniping off the enemy AI's; One by one they fall to the ground! 

After displaying my awesome sniping skills i decide to drive into the cap point so I can get my hands on those glorious Poptabs. I get the message that says i have to cap for 10 Minutes. Thinking to myself "It's too late for me to turn around now". I decide to continue my mission.

 

[Enemy AI are comming to retake Capture point B]

Fearing for my life i reload my trustworthy sniper rifle.  Redtube Beeg Spankbang I spot the enemy AI and take them all out one by one. 

A few minutes passes as suddenly 2 rapid waves of AI spawn to yet again take over my capture point. There's too many of them. I get overrun and im now hiding amongst 15+ enemy AI just inches away from me. I take off my silencer thinking i need every bullet to do as much dammage as it can, I turn on full auto on my gun thinking spray and pray for dear god..

 

The time has come for me to show what im made of. I pop out from my hiding spot shooting 3 enemy AI's within a few seconds. Knowing that ive drawn their attention towards myself i chug out a few grenades and take out a fuckton of AI's. With the adrenaline rush i now have i run arround shooting everything i see, i take cover like a champ, avoid getting shot at all costs. Ive entered FUCKING RAMBO MODE at this stage!

After killing every AI in the compound i take a quick moment for myself to catch my breath, thinking "dang im a GOD".

 

Ive finally battled for 10 excruciating minutes and with a relief the message pops up "Capture point B has been completed". Thinking to myself ive made it. I locate my glorious reward crates, i rush to the first one so eager to get my hands on the poptabs ive displayed so much skill for.  Thinking now i can finally upgrade my crib so i can build myself a pimping pool i open the first crate.

Twenty Three Mafakking Thousand Poptabs! Im swimming in poptabs now, i can retire!

- Is what i tought...

 

*CRACK*

Choose your respawn location..

 

Turns out little Billy had been chilling in his lovely bush for 10 minutes watching some lovely hentai porn while waiting for me to grab my reward.

 

The End.

 

 

 

Now hopefully you got my point.

Currently there are no reasons for players to contest capture points because they can just claim all of the rewards for themselves when 10 minutes has passed, because they just sit 800 meters away in a bush with a sniper while jerking off.

I believe there should be some secured reward for the

players who actually do the mission. Im talking maybe 40% of the poptabs into their locker once the mission is over (rest in loot crate).

 

I literally did a capture point 30 minutes ago soloing the entire thing only to get sniped off when trying to claim my reward. I know that there were at least 5 Enemy players just camping the crates with snipers. And this is my 4th time in a row getting sniped while looting poptabs.

You may say that i just suck or whatever but you really cant collect your reward because the loot animation freezes you, therefore making you an easy target served on a silver plate.

 

Also i know someone will comment "But you get your respect after capping".. To that i say respect is absolutely useless. I have 100K+ respect and i can spend 2 minutes looting and get better gear than what im starting at with 100k respect.. And please fill me in if theres anything i dont know about that i can use respect for; besides getting a tiny bit better spawn gear.

 

 

- CONCLUTION -

 

The flaw in capping atm is that there is no reason for players to contest CP's. Resulting in players just waiting for other players to start a CP and then just sniping them off after 10 minutes has passed with little to none efforts, while the person who capped is left with nothing but 10K useless respect.

 

A way to fix this is simply (as mentiohned before) give the capper some real reward so its actually worth contesting them instead of just sitting in a bush 800 meters away for 10 minutes. And if people are still just camping in a bush.. well then they loose out on 40% of the poptab reward.

 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           |  |

I hope someone else has seen this problem and agrees. If you think my idea of locker secured poptabs is shit.. by all means post your opinion below (but show a little respect).   V V

I agree mostly with you guys. There are many things to consider. However, at the end of the day i just wish capturing would be an objective that actually includes capping and contesting.

I have a few questions regarding the rules concerning safe zone combat and what counts as avoiding combat. 

 

Scenario 1:

Unarmed little bird(myself) chasing  Nox Vidmate VLC enemy unarmed little bird. Enemy little bird flies directly to safe zone and lands. This initial chase started over 10k away from a safezone at a mission.

 

Scenario 2: (Happened tonight)

Got myself into the gunner seat of a stolen hmg truck. Guy (enemy driver) proceeds to book it directly to the safe zone. Admin said that this was ok and the guy rightfully owned vehicle. The initial situation started at the work camp mission.

 

 

Both these scenarios are as far as I am aware allowed in the servers rules. Now I'll give my argument why I feel this is bullshit.

 

Argument 1:

Both scenarios these people were abusing the god mode safe zone in their favor. They are allowed to go directly to the safe zone and once they get there if I continue to follow them, I am breaking the rules. Definitely ok right? lol...

 

Argument 2:

If these people didn't go to the safe zone and abuse the god mode, the situation could have gone completely differently, they would have to outrun me or land and kill me. Or on the other hand, one of my online teammates that were actively chasing them down could have landed and killed them as well.

 

In my mind, these might not technically be 'running to safe zone when in combat' due to a shot not being technically taken at them, but they are clearly in some sort of combat, and they choose to take the easy abuse way out.

 

 

 

 

he was in a better position, he was better prepared (by bringing a pawnee) and managed to get a shot on you, and you just hard-countered that by not getting hit by a shot for 10 seconds..

how is that fair towards him?

We've talked about the territory permissions and what it grants you and doesn't grant you when added to the territory. Right now simply being added allows you to move/remove baseparts. But doesn't allow you access to the virtual garage or the convenience of not typing in codes for your base doors. In our eyes  Redtube Beeg Spankbang being able to move parts in a territory without being promoted is a risk when befriending new people on the server. 

So we want to know what the community think and if an option you think is better that isn't listed here, then feel free to leave a reply and we'll take it into our consideration as well. 

Add a bunch of randoms because you want to outnumber people then you this comes with no pun intended the territory

Hey, 

 

While I appreciate servers have to be paid for somehow, I know from personal experience with regard to exile servers (I have played on quite a few and yes I usualy pay/donate) that having reserved slots kills servers super fast. Time and time again I have had team mates not be able to connect or have them kicked to make way for a reserved slot player. this has always resulted in our group finding a different server to play on. We always would monitor these servers cause we have this great habbit of picking very good  Nox Vidmate VLC servers to play on and we always want to know what the likelyhood of us getting onto the server is. Almost every time, the server is dead within a month.

 

People do not like being booted if a reserved slot player joins, people dont like playing if not all of their group can join the server and this leads to people going elsewhere. 
 

It is hard I know to find funding for servers but believe me I donate and I will willing donate to a well run server, I will not however pay for reserved slots. IMO moderate the server well, have active admins, dont abuse admin powers and run a great server. Trust me people will donate.

 

 

Thanks for listening

So people go into the ground at like 200m +...

Is this server   Speed Test Scrabble Word Finder Solitaire enforced or is there anything I can do about it?

 

 

Like this is an ok example as you can see some of the guy right, but like yesterday I was fighting with friends at an objective and there is a guy 100% at the objective, I am perched 250m  away overlooking it. We want to go in but no one can see the guy sop my friend runs in and then I just see the guy stand up out of the ground in front of me and start shooting.....

Is there anything I can do to stop this effect?

I have £2600 tower I put together about 3 months ago with a 1080ti in it. Its top of the range.

Thank you for any help or advice.

 

its just an arma thing you gotta keep in mind, at ultra you should be able to see atleast part of their body though

Im not sure if this has been brought up before but i've discussed this with someone within our group. 

 

Id like to propose a change to how much respect you lose to NPC's. Right now you lose the same ammount as you would to another player, (2% of you own respect). I suggest you make it 1%, or lower it to however you see fit. 

 

Or what do you guys think?
