I think the only way I would be interested in this is if the servers are 1st person and the admins don't make their servers into the 1 million vehicles and weapons in every building BS that is currently everywhere.

Problem is tho, the million vehicles cant be controlled. It comes down to how many cars/choppers players buy. The clean up scripts will be much better than A2!

Don't think Epoch is for you mate.. Think you prefer, like myself the full scavenger mode where you don't have traders etc..



PS

Stomping land on Friday, up for it?
 
We are going for the long haul here guys. The A3 Epoch project will likely take a few years before we are at at 100% finished state. Alpha status will last until 1.0 at which point we will enter the beta phase. Beta phase will be mostly feature complete with a slower/larger update cycles. Closed alpha is likely to last up to version 0.5 and hosting will be done by our own developers and will only allow whitelisted players to join. Open alpha will likely start sometime after 0.5 (50% complete) and at this time we will start to welcome some server hosts to join in the testing. During open alpha we are going to only allow server hosting via an application process with acceptance of specific terms. For GSP's that want to host during the alpha we will ask that customers ability to access server files is limited from making any modifications. All of this is so that we can get proper feedback on our own work and fix any issues that are from the mod and hopefully make the game we all want to play.

thing with this is if the other mods incorporate any or most of what epoch offers and are first could render the project dead.

have to see how it goes.
 
If anyone fancies it we're all playing Overpoch on arma 2 in anticipation the above release.

You don't have to join the clan, but are welcome to just jump on our TS and do some killing runs and supply gathering :D

So the open alpha release is coming soon, been watching live streams on Twitch and its looking good. The build they are playing is 0.0.9.9 and open alpha release is 0.1 so its just round the corner right?
 
Looking forward to the release of this. It will actually mean i will have a reason to play something Arma 3 related lol. Never been able to play very much of Arma 3 due to it just not doing it for me. And i've never been able to put my finger on why not...

Also i hope there is 3rd and 1st person view servers. I can't play for long periods in 1st person as it makes me feel dizzy. I don't care about the old debate about people being able to see around/over walls. It's about choice and making it enjoyable for all :)
