All Activity

After much hard work and long hours by @L00_Cyph3r , the Arma Exile Server is ready for use. Due to the headache of setting it up, Cypher went with a minimal modset, see below for the required mods and optional mod, to prevent crashes we would ask you not load any other whitelisted mods that we allow on the other servers as we dont know what they might do on the server. Required Mods: Exile + TFAR Beta + CBA Optional Mods: DUI Squad Radar Any issues please post in the Exile GOTM channel on discord, PLEASE DO NOT PING Cypher directly, we will follow up on any issues when we have time. If you wish to join the server early to check you can connect, etc you are free to do so but we would ask that as many people be available for this event so that we can get a good start to the GOTM EXILE RULES: We would ask all players read these rules, if you see any possible issue of rule-breaking please bring it to the attention of an online staff member (where possible) GENERAL RULES: No Cheating/Hacking. No Wall glitching. This includes but not limited to, looking through walls/floors, running at walls/floors to gain access to a base, vaulting through windows or peaking through an object to gain an advantage No Exploiting.

Air to Air, Air to Ground and Air to Base Kamikaze is strictly forbidden (including parachute against other vehicles and players) Do not log out inside of other players bases. Logging out for the restart is fine as long as you log back in after a very short amount of time. Deploying vehicles inside any object is not allowed. This includes other vehicles, walls, players, etc. Placing/Crafting objects/items into vehicles/players is an exploit. Do not do this. Rappelling is not to be used in such a way that the rappelling rope goes through objects making you reach positions that you wouldn't normally be able to access, doing this is considered glitching. Shooting or scouting within 500m radius of any territory into a spawn zone or any kind of trader is not allowed. Shooting or scouting within 500m radius of any territory into the cement mixer area is not allowed. Shooting or scouting within the 500m radius of any territory to any static mission is not allowed.

If it's not yours, do not touch it. This is including dead bodies. Do not follow a player out of the Safe Zone to kill or engage them in any way. Do not block traders with vehicles or crates. Vehicles left in the Safe Zones on restarts will be unlocked and can be taken within the first 5 minutes. Once a vehicle is taken, the driver owns it. Do not attempt to take it back.

Do not troll the new owner by locking the vehicle etc. Destroying vehicles in the Safe Zone is forbidden. No trolling within the Safe Zones. Scouting from Safe Zone is not allowed. No shooting other players within 500m of the Safe Zone. This is considered the "NO PVP ZONE". No combat evading into the Safe Zone or "NO PVP ZONE".

Once you enter the "NO PVP ZONE", any form of combat or engagement is not allowed. Do not camp the border of the "NO PVP ZONE". BUILDING RULES: You can only have 1 base per family or group and only have access to that base! Bypassing this in any way will result in bases being deleted. The entire thicker part of the flag must be visible and it must be placed on the terrain. (This means not floating, under the terrain, in/over water or on rocks) You cannot place anything on the bottom half of your flag. To protect your flag, you need to make at least a 1x1 flag room using Exile Wood/Metal/Concrete walls. You can place a roof for your flag room but there must be space for players to stand. The flag room must be empty, including map objects. If your flag room is more than 1x1, then you can have objects within the room but not within a 1x1 radius. Multiple layers of walls can be used for your flag room. You do not need a door to access this room. You can place destructible objects on the top half of the flag to protect it. The use of indestructible items to surround whole rooms or your flag is not allowed. No floating base parts, containers or concrete mixers are allowed. Safe kits, concrete mixers and fuel stations are not to be placed within the terrain or prebuilt objects. This includes but not limited to rocks, houses and trees. You are allowed to build objects on top of them (floors, walls, hatches, etc.) Safe rooms must not be made from glass building parts (single quick access safes on a glass roof etc. are fine, just don’t overdo it. Our staff will judge this grey area at their discretion.) Accessing safes or containers through objects including walls/floors is not allowed. Do not build on roads. You are allowed to build over roads but room has to be made for vehicles to pass under. (At least 2 walls tall) You can build at the end of the road such as a dead end. Do not build over the 35m height limit! Objects above 35m will be automatically deleted on each restart.

(Walls as floors/roofs, Towers placed horizontally, heli pads upside down, etc.) You are not allowed to block passageways with concrete mixers You are not allowed to use ladders to pass through walls/floors. You are not allowed to place objects (e.g. walls) in a way that allows the territory owners to vault or jump over them while attackers can't.

"An Aircraft Carrier is 100,000 tonnes of Democracy" - Henry Kissinger EVENT SUMMARY: This is an event taking place a week after the release of the Carriers Update for NEBULOUS: Fleet Command, a military simulator set in a distant space environment wherein two different factions (The ANS - Shelter Alliance, and the OSP - Outer Systems Protectorate) are embroiled in war. The simulation includes inertia, damage modelling, ranging and detection simulation and missile warfare - and now carrier warfare. Players have a set of hulls for each faction, with which they can configure the internals, the systems and the weaponry at will, so a large part of the game is won by how you decide to outfit your fleet. Will you use cruise missiles to harrass and engage enemy ships from cover, or swarm smaller and simpler missiles to attempt to overcome enemy defences via quantity? Will you take a refitted cargo liner, outfit with gigantic broadside fixed cannons a-la ships of the line from the age of sail? There's a tonne of possibilities, before even getting into battle. We'll be hosting a few games of MP Nebulous, either internally to the community assuming full numbers, internally against the update's newly-implemented and improved AI if not full numbers, or externally playing against randoms if that works for folks. ++EVENT RULES++ General: 1: Players must have pre-built fleets coming into the event. A minute or two whilst getting a game going to adjust something is fine - 30 minutes to build a new fleet from scratch is not. - 1a: There is pre-built fleets for both factions that can be taken, so if the fleet editor isn't your vibe, do feel free to take one. Here's a steam guide to the Starter Fleets. 2: There will be a 5 minute break between games for personal admin. 3: No Exploits or Metagaming. 4: When joining a team, there is an option to show your fleet. Do not click this until the teams are fully filled and finalised, else it confers an advantage if there is team switches. 5: Standard FK Ruleset for good conduct applies. 6: In the case of something outside of this ruleset related to the game, the Event Host has discretion in ruling. --EVENT RULES-- ++NOTES++ Game Settings: Max Players: 8 Scenario: Control Time Limit: 30 Minutes Uniform Team Factions: Yes Victory Points: 1000 Team Points Limit: 3000 per player Map Pool: Aorta, Arroyo, Avora, Caltrop, Cicada, Honeycomb, Pillars, Tombstones, Tumbleweed, Yukon EVENT REQUIREMENTS: SERVER INFO: Host: Deltabacon Password: On Request MODSET: Functionality (Optional): Show Hidden Stats - Adds several stats which were previously hidden to the Fleet Editor, so players can take them into account when building their fleets. Neb Maps (FK) - Small download of the maps, can be done in-game but ideal to have them in-advance.

"Just as it has always been, when our memories of the ancient world fade into twilight, a new era dawns to fill the void; an unfamiliar path with a pulse of its own, a tempo not dictated by the labor of men, but accelerated by the rhythm of machines, launching the world into an age of bold innovation. From this cauldron of steel and sweat, a vision of prosperity emerged; harnessing the untold power of the elements, turning night into day, creating new designs that brought the world's stage to the masses and providing an experience that many had never imagined. The advent of mechanized warfare brought devastation like none the world had ever seen, providing a window of opportunity for some to dictate conformity as regimes spread their ideologies with a heavy hand, inciting the world to the brink of war. And yet, some chose a different path and, through their vision, brought unique prospectives to the world. As singular proponents of free thinking remained striving for peace in their endeavors to unlock the secrets of the universe—some of which, would fill our hearts with fear and regret. And as this progress unfolds, the finite nature of our world becomes clear; our survival, the survival of all the world's peoples, depends on our ability to coexist in peace, but this peace is tenuous. Although mankind will always look onward, yearning for more, searching for new boundaries, only to break through them, with the understanding that this world is one, in which, we all share, comes the responsibility of knowing that the decisions you make today will have a lasting impact on the generations of tomorrow." — William Morgan Sheppard - CIV V Intro - August 24, 1932 -> January 6, 2019.
