b_560_95_1.png

  • Active server recently changed to Epoch and steadily building more players
  • Strong emphasis on Survival/trading but also plenty of PvP!
  • 260+ Dynamically spawning basic vehicles (with more advanced and better vehicles available for trade and personal ownership)
  • Base building active and working - build your own secure team base!
  • Dogs enabled - get yourself a dog companion, ala I am Legend!
  • in-game currency - earn gold, silver, copper, tin and aluminium by selling and trading ANYTHING you loot.
  • Trader cities and wholesalers across the map for selling unwanted loot and buying kit you do want!
  • Personal safes available
  • Basic starting loadout (makarov, 3 mags & 2 bandages) - No pay to win load outs!
  • Usual custom buildings such as extended urban areas, additional fire stations, barracks, apartments,castles etc (Not OP additions like barracks added to Cherno or anything like that!)
  • Minimal choppers - Choppers generally have to be bought. Play Day Z how it was meant to be played with just a handful of choppers. Once you can afford a chopper you need to value it!
  • Daylight settings temporary running 24/7
  • No admin restricted areas or protected bases! No admin abuse!
  • Additional weapons and vehicles unlocked and added to trader system including previously unavailable weapons!
  • Custom ambushes and choke points - become an infamous highwayman robbbing travellers of their gold!
  • Moderates with limited admin access (so no admin abuse!) to just kick and ban hackers
  • Two established factions fighting against each other (so there's no clan stacking - all our members are divided between the 2 teams!) and lots of smaller Private Military Companies (PMCs)
  • On going tournaments and events to win in-game rewards or gold to buy equipment or supplies - earn the dough and reap the rewards!
  • Trader events such as flash sales and treasure hunts!
  • TSW Anti-Hack installed

Following a recent server relaunch (we moved server host, changed maps and even mod version!) and subsequence success, we're looking to further improve our server's population and are inviting players to come check us out!

It's relatively "bambi" and noob friendly (no guarnatees though!!!) and there are no massively over powered teams punishing new players the second they set foot on the coast! Our regular players are divided between two open factions where clan membership NOT necessary to join! Also lots of smaller groups and private teams playing too, so there isnt a single group of players hoarding all the best vehicles and weapons!

That said, our "GoldFish Bowl" Chernarus server is very a dangerous place with AI and human bandits on almost every hillside, in every city and around every corner! We’re already seeing a lot of casualties though treachery, deception and damn right piracy! Precious metals are just that - and people will do anything to get their hands on some quick and easy currency!

The only rules that apply on our server (apart from no cheating!) are faction members cannot fire upon members of their own faction – there is only honour among our factions! Affiliation to a faction at least guarantees your safety and support within that faction as well as access to shared faction resources!

Affiliation last the entire course of a Faction Wars season, which are regular events that are hosted on the server and played at specific times, so once you are affiliated with a faction you are bound to them for the long haul, but benefits of being a part of a faction include team loyalty, better event participation and access to a faction base - built completely in-game with available crafting resources! Add your own barracks, sheds, shacks, quarters, bunkers, fortifications and much more to your factions base, or make your own outpost - its up to you!

Both factions are presently open to join and offer various benefits! Ideally, the factions have different goals and approaches, but these arent always set in stone!

Ravens tend to be more "hero” style in their approach, friendly, skill full, stealthy and interested in building bases, helping others and providing protection to bambis and noobs alike!

Scorpions are more "bandit" style players, pirates of Chernarus their main objective is self preservation and to f**k up some ones day! They are only loyal to each other and will think nothing of shooting first, asking questions later!

However it’s important to understand that this is only the IDEAL of the factions and there are no obligations for Scorpions to play bandit, Ravens to play hero – Ravens can be as cold and ruthless in their daily excursions and Scorpions can be friendly and helpful, it’s entirely up to you how you wish to play!

Its only semi working mate, I need to have a proper look at it. I suspect it wont do the same kind of tracking as it does with Vanilla though. Ours connects fine and runs the warnings and stuff though.

Hi, the AI are a mixture of Bandits, Soldiers and Survivors. The Soldiers and Survivors will not attack you if your humanity is above -1000, unless you attack them (or another "friendly" AI group first, or they perceive you as a threat. AI Bandits will attack you what ever you do.

TO check your humanity or if an AI kill was friendly or not check your player debug screen (insert key by default).
