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!
 
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

Its basically how survival games should be ...

Nobody wants to spend their time constantly running around, dying at any point and then starting again... Like in most survival films/series. Eventually people need to rebuild and start a base and collect items and become powerful!

Thats where Epoch comes in!

This will be really really buggy when it comes out, but after sinking hundreds of hours into Epoch/overpoch on A2 i'm VERY confident these guys will eventually hit the nail on the head

Managed to get a code for this and its very bare bones at the mo, as to be expected. Loot seems to have a problem spawning, no scroll loot options when you DO find loot (you have to search with scroll then click I) no zombies.

Happy to test it and help out but I think I was expecting too much, props to em so far :).

There are no zombies ever being put in the game.
 
To be honest Axle does seem a tad elitist about some of the things he's coming out with... However I think he does mean well, instead of opening it up to the public he's helping to support the twitch streamers who have supported the mod.

What actually happened was a server provider pulled out and put a claim into paypal and reclaimed $2000, which caused Axle to potentially lose his home as a result as he couldn't pay bills.

The mod has potential, but its a long way off having anything of worth in. I'd be more tempted to stick to Arma 2 Epoch CCG for the time.

Also something to watch out for is standalone, once they released the files to the community i'm expecting some pretty big things to come out of that! Still think its absolutely crazy how we had to pay for mod of a mod which will be handed back out to modders.

Absolutely loving this!!! Only thing that does my head in with Arma 3 in general is the car's just dont feel right, the braking distance is silly!

Personally i'm only stick to CCG servers, they usually put in some really good extra stuff and play around with the mod. Alrteady its better than the original mod... They give players what they want! Not what they feel we want.
 
Absolutely loved the mod!! Has huge potential.

They need to change the base building a tad, lots of cool things about it... But doesn't have the same feel to it. Also the traders agrrrr.. This was a good few weeks since i've played it tho.

Looking forward to missions etc being introduced.
