    Are you guys still playing on this server ?
    I never tried altis life will give it a try if you guys are still playing.
    Im atm highly addicted to arma 3 epoch but havent found a good server yet ...

    Way too much satchel charges around .. base building is kind of pointless atm ...

    I actually forgot to pay the bill. So the server went down. We have not had a whole lot of interest recently because of other games. I am always interested in getting back into it though. I will say it would be nice to have some regular events/missions.

    That server in the banner is not actually our server, since ours went down. We were just playing a custom A3 Alive map.

    Ahh ok.
    Well id totally be up for arma 3 i just never could make it due to timezone differences when you guys started a while back. ( SC FPS Training )

    Ive been playing quite a bit of arma 3 epoch before the holidays and really enjoyed it.
    Its still very alpha but quite fun.
    Just for the record im on GMT+1 (not french:D even if TS says so) and totally up for scheduled gameplay for better organisation!

    I am looking for a new arma 3 epoch server to play on.
    Anyone playing atm ?
    If there is enough interest id be totally up to chip in and we rent our own server.

    I think arma 3 epoch + basebuilding is a great thing to do with a community as ours
    Secure an area and hold it + hort a shit load of guns, gear and vehicles

    Going to test some servers and post once i find a good one

    That wasteland server is both PVP and PVE. Im plaing independant at the moment and have $1.25 mill in the bank :D
    For cost scale an air to ground missile costs $2k and an armed attack chopper comes in at $60k.

    I'm ashamed to admit I've been having trouble getting this to install. Any trick to it aside from a normal arma mod installation? I went through the readme a few times and tried reinstalling it. The mod launches but I get immediately kicked from any epoch server I try to join.

    im using steam + arma 3 and then http://a3launcher.com/ the arma 3 launcher to manage mods and look for servers
    i downloaded epoch manually
    and followed the readme instructions

    hope that helps ?

    We are planning at about 8 PM Eastern. If these servers require mods we probably will not get them tonight just because folks may not have time to get things installed. Just so we know, what is needed for them?

    Pvp / pve is player behavior There are some servers that are pve only but you still can shoot and kill players ...
    friendly fire is always on and you can always kill everybody you encounter. Even NPC traders

    I am going to download Epoch, maybe if everyone has a chance to download it for tonight, we will check it out. If not I will find a vanilla mission for us to run.
