Discord is nice cuz it's free but along with it comes i price. ''By uploading, distributing, transmitting or otherwise using Your Data with the Services, you grant to us a nonexclusive, transferable, royalty-free, sublicensable, and worldwide license to use Your Data, subject to the Company’s Privacy Policy.'' Hmmmm, how about no ?.

I promise you End July...., reason i know is cuz Exile is focusing on Tanoa now. And Apex drops 11th July. Eichi said testing will take 1 or 2 weeks. So Maybe around 25th of july or a bit later. Which would be awesome cuz my B day is 28th

Best thing you can do is record incidents, throw it on Youtube and make some nice advertisement around it (y). That's one thing i always kept in the back of my mind in my days as a server admin for a community. You're a repersentative 1st - Admin second. But sadly as stated before, you can't do much about it. The server is hired, they person who hires it can do what ever he wants to do with it. If he wanna waste money on a server which is used for fuckery. Wel he plays himself. Any self respected community owner is gonna sanction such admins and publicly announce it on their forums + state that players are more then welcome to report misbehaviour from admins with evidence ofcourse at any given time. But then again this doesn't happen most of the time cuz admins are usually friends. And they don't wanna insult them so they gonna let them slip with toxic behaviour....even tho' they are screwing your community up. Just look for another server, from my expierience i can tell you this. Communities that are very formal and guidelined will give you more of a stable location toplay for long periods of time. Communities with lame names, who are very informal with their communication and have a teamspeak that doesn't have waiting rooms to que and just pull you into a room that's called ''Yolo swag LMG 420 Houze'' and have an admin talk to you like. What do you want?. Yeaaahhh....No, not realy. Bye lol. That's not a place to expect maturity/professionalism.

Meh, since BIS new monetization policy ALOT of Arma communities have died off and some Bigger communities shrinked alot in size. Communities VS mods are 2 different things...but when it get's to money, morals are out the door.

Knowing that Exile relies partially on it's playerbase for donations. I wonder if that is the only pillar the Exile mod rests on ?. What if donations slow down or die out ?, will Exile keep on existing ?. I imagen it's hard to find investors since the mod is free, and brings no revenue whatsoever. I'd hate to see 'Exile' go, but i doubt it wil as the creativity i have seen so far goes beyond of what i have ever seen in arma 2/3 Epoch and most likely attract ALOT of people aswel cuz it brings something different to the table conceptswise specifically.

With all the additional things that has been showcasted, i'm just dying to try it all out. Even tho' being burned out on Arma and i'm taking a break of it all....still looking out for it. Is there an ETA yet ?

I guess the update will have an ETA when BIS will announce the release date of APEX monday. Kappa i know you guys been watching streams with the Tanoa map so i know the update is being worked around it

Have fun getting in the butt kissing bussiness....Just realize you won't be able to satsify everybody.

How can we join ?. I like breaking stuff

I guess you never sold a crate from an AI base or slumsbase lol....Do it a couple of times and you'll be happy to have a stack function.

BUMP, this topic is still relevant

First and foremost i want to thank the Dev team for creating and coming up with the concept of 'Exile'. After some words exchange on the concrete constructions dev blog, @Eichi expressed how he felt about the stance of a percentage of the community towards the devs. And from that statement i noticed that it seems that we do not show enough gratitude and consideration for the work that have been put in so far into a mod that we are able to play for FREE. It seems like there is alot of pressure on the 'team' cuz of people always complaining about updates not happening fast enough or ''again'' no new content being added to stir up excitement or no notifications are being announced of what has been done and what still has to be done. About that i would like to say; Keeps us atleast updated once a week with an image of WIP and what you have been doing. You don't have to, but it's just a sign of...okay Exile is still alive,these guys are bussy. second there should be no pressure on anyone for any reason. I'm also highly annoyed with the entitled and pretentious behaviour of manny players towards the 'team' and the 'mod' like they are the boss and are not satisfied on how the developement is going. To such people i only have one message; You can do it better ?. Build your own mod. Also i want to give some advice to the 'team', it's great that y'all want to involve the community into the progress of the developement. BUT !, don't listen 100% to the community. You can't please everyone in the world, and basing final deccisions on what people say will only cause confusion and uncertainty. If y'all come up with a new concept to implement, introduce it to us in a forum post with a poll....see how the community responds. Is 60% positive ?. That should be a sign to go for it and have fun with what you're doing. Are there some suggestions you noticed and you liked ?, make a poll, introduce it again to us and vote again. 60% is positive agian ?. There you go, no need for endless discussions on the forum that will cause that uncertainty and demotivation. Despite all the complaining, people will be coming back. They just fail to realize what Alpha means and don't realize in which state the mod is still being in, who is working on it, when it started from scratch and what still needs to be done. Eitherway this post whas just a personal statement to encourage the 'team',crank up the morale a bit and acknowledge the work that has been done

This only means more objects which the devs are ot fond of i believe. Then again there is scripting. Arma 2 Epoch had a script called ''Vector Building'' it would let you rotate your nuildable in every angle in increments of 5 15 30 and 45 degrees Creative building in arma 3 is not possible. My last base in Arma 2 whas a castle with fort walls around it and the castle itself had those ''archer type'' of slits to fire out of if someone got over the walls anyhow. Also vertical angled walls up and or downward to either take out APC's and or choppers where achieveable. Now you're limited to a window or ''walls elevated'' of the floor to have something to peek which means you need to expose yourself badly. Also the 150 pieces max leaves little room for creativity cuz usually you'll have a bunch of gaps that need to be closed of.

What a server owner does does not represent the concept of what Exile is. I have played on a Chernarus 1st person view server and imo it whas pretty interesting where it whas heading but the owner quit the community. The loot spawn whas scars, but guns, backpack and food whas findable. But nothing like, spawn, run to a town and find a full auto rifle or LMG with a GL rig and a bergbackpack or a carry all and ready for war. Food wasn't buy-able either at a trader. Nor where locks and other building tools. It forced you to go out and loot and take the risk of meeting other people that where doing the same you whas. Looking for supplies in order to develope and stay alive.

OR, simply go hack bushes for leaves and sticks and ragg em all togheter to so said; lay over your base. Arma 2 graphics where great for cammo tents, but in arma 3 they are as good a see trough.

0:33 WHAT !!!!, *hits face against the other chair* Bob !!!!. Apparently that chair's name whas Bob

So dope !!!!, if you're good at building bases you might be able to blend in into a town very wel to the point that nobody will notice. <3 Exile.

Cuz rants do fix things ya know

Infistar is only good for laizy admins....Back in my admin days i liked spectating players and i caught some doing things that didn't show in the loggs at al. Like Duping and aimbotting.

Thx for the positive comments so far . It's quiet interesting to see how nobody takes time to say something nice. But will have 30 minutes of their day to make a summary of what they don't like and want with some side rant to it aswel, smh

Wel 1st and foremost, i had no intend of accusing, or insulting anyone.All i did whas give my opinion on the implementation from an expierience background. Like i said, 6000 hours into the ARMA franchize i have learned how people like to abuse mechanics and exploitations i have raided quiet some indestructable and destructable bases in Arma 2 and been told by admins to quit it on mutiple occasions, hell i think i even got banned for it cuz i whas damaging the player base due it. And i agree with what Eichi said, and thats what i have been telling people aswel. The Exile devs are not a company that get's payed for developing the mod so they don't owe you anything and there shouldn't be any pressure on them either way. People will always come back to Exile cuz it's the only different and unique mod there is that brings new things to the table. On my part i whas just being suggestive, you can't please everyone in this world. Cuz there is always someone that gonna b*tch about something.

It's not about that, Vibration poinst out alot of valid points imo. You can disregard my following oppinion aswel, but i can tell you after having almost 6000 hours in the ARMA franchize. There are alot of toxic trolls. What Vibration actually means is that he doesn't want Exile to go the same route as 'Rust'. I know it's a different game. But that game isn't realy a singleplayer online game, grinding for your own fortified base = not gonna happen. Unless you play in a large group of atleast 3-4 people. The similarities i sense that vibration is putting out is that, bases are probably gonna be like in 'Rust' grind all day to get something nice going. Next day you're whole base has been taken over by a bigger wel established clan. Basically putting any lonewolf or 2 man teams out of play. Then again Vibration have to realize that server owners can adjust settings to their liking. It doesn't mean that You guys decide that bases should be totally raidable that it will be so for all servers. Scripts can be adjusted to whatever at the of the day. Then agian i'm stoked about the walls....back in arma 2 i used to play alone for a long time and how i whas able to get a fortified base going is hide my base all the way up north in chernarus with my 1st 3 concrete walls and doorway with lock and totally cover that thing with cammo-woods nets. Always worked, and always whas able to establish a large fort base to compete against other groups but then again those where undestrructable bases :P.

Default Exile doesn't have concrete mixers in the open to build walls either....So what ?

Not gonna lie, when i get to the point of wel established aka nice vehicle list in my virtual garage and have above 1 mill pop tabs. I just fly around in a jet or drive around in a tank rekting people. Cuz there is nothing else to do. You just get to that point where there is nothing else to do. This is why i'm backing down from Exile for now and i'm looking to join a Mil-sim unit where there is actual teamwork and gameplay instead of massive amounts of trolling and abusive stance against weaponry/game mechanics. But then again mil-sim is more co-op then online against other players. How easy a base should be raidable is something the server owner can set in the parameters on the server i believe. Back in arma 2 epoch i used to raid undestructable bases by rattling locks, sometimes you would sit there for an hour. Sometimes you would get the door unlocked after 6th try of putting in 3 digits in the doorlock. This is why i said everything that could be crucial to gameplay should be adjustable by the server owner to see how the community responds. Cuz just putting in changes without any feedback from the community is gonna be fatal. I have seen a community go downhill and perm quit cuz they never involved it's playerbase in changes so they left to another server. So i totally get your post above. I hope Exile is not gonna go downhill cuz imo it's the only awesome mod for arma 3 on survival.

Wel, that's one very own interpretation of survival Pvp....Then take away all military grade guns and armoured/gunner vehicles becuz i think if you're an exile that it's very unrealistic and highly unlikely that you'll find these things in real life or even obtain them cuz most likely the army has everything confiscated or Private millitary companies seized it. I seen a popular server die out cuz ifrits/striders were taken out and more civil cars where put in. Like i said before in a previous thread. Exile right now has not a set story mode of what it realy is except that you're stuck on a island and that you have to survive. From there on you can customize your server to whatever you think fits the Exile story. EDIT; Exile is happening in the EU. We have no gun rights, so finding guns in buildings is not gonna happen :P. Unless Exile happens somewhere in the US or Russia, i'll cease my case.
