[b]IP[/b]: 98.219.87.161 [b]Port[/b]: 2302 [b]Mission Page[/b]: [url]http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=3681[/url] Quarantine is basically a giant zombie RPG, complete with bandits, medkits, vehicles, and assloads of zombies. Missions, too. It's basically like an online version of Stalker, only with zombies thrown in. Since the main designer behind Quarantine Unleashed decided that he was going to call it quits, me and Edberg have taken up tweaking around the mission, so the Quarantine version on the server is different from the one you will find online. Required addon pack still applies. We might throw in some 6th Sense Mod stuff into a separate mission file (So there's a public mission and a modded, private mission). Anyway, come play with us. It's funs and has some more vehicles added in. MI17 has been added to the buy array, some prices have been changed around (Generally everything is more affordable - Osprey is now 150k instead of 250k. Hitching vehicles isn't worth an extra 150k), and there's a Cobra and Kamov added to the buy array at a price of 800k, so you can only get it if you get what me and Edberg refer to as the Happy Bug. We'll also probably enforce nazi laws and kick you if you use it without permission. It's really there as an admin tool. Anyway I got 4 hours of sleep so I'm going to end my rambling thread and fix it later. Come play, it's awsam. [b]Update[/b] As it seems that more and more players are joining the server, we've gotten the opportunity to organize everything. Here's the way it breaks down: We do this military style. We have a chain of command. Fuck your two cents, nobody wants to hear about it, so if you're a grunt, stay a grunt and shut up (I'm looking at YOU, Soban :argh:). If you're a Fireteam CO, feel free to throw in suggestions but if you're told to keep the chatter down by any of the Mission CO's, do so. You still answer to them. Airforce jargon applies for aerial ops and pilots. Most importantly, [b]do NOT get into an argument with your superiors[/b]. Doing so will result in your prompt removal from the game. Their word is law. We had a problem with this the first time the system was implemented and I do not want to see it again. Generally, it goes like this (As an example, positions are not set): [code] |Treelor: Mission CO | |-Edberg: Fireteam 1 CO |--Soban: Fireteam 1 Rifleman |--LittleDog: Fireteam 1 Rifleman | |-Jeffman12: Fireteam 2 CO |--Mr. Cookie: Fireteam 2 Rifleman |--Frankiscool!: Fireteam 2 Rifleman | |-Monkey: Air Support |--Wolly: Air Support [/code] We have Ventrilo separated into different sub-channels for each fireteam, and the CO's have the ability to whisper to the Mission CO, and the Mission CO has binds to whisper to each individual channel to give orders effectively. Keep chatter short, and brevity codes do get used sometimes to help that along. Anyway, it sounds pretty scary but we're not as strict as I make it seem. Keep it organized and take it seriously but if you have questions feel free to ask no matter where your position on the totem pole is.
awsam. does lieek.
like foxtun use a machine gun to shewt down zumbies? lol edbarg should host a porno site next. or mebbe a gwammar checkuh
Damn, I wish I had ArmA.
[b]The Zombie Journal - Day One[/b] Me and Wolly went around in a blackhawk saving people's asses. I'm glad to see that the rescue scrips are WORKING now - me and Edberg tried it before and the people wouldn't dismount when you tried to hit the "Evac civilians" button at one of the main bases. Not too many other people around though.
By "RPG", do you mean people level up or that you guys actually roleplay?
Goddamn this sounds awesome, this is on my buy list for Friday. (huzzah for extra money)
[QUOTE=Anders]By "RPG", do you mean people level up or that you guys actually roleplay?[/QUOTE] No leveling up, but there's a money system involved. We could actually roleplay, but most of the time it's just Edberg and gang on ventrilo. Roleplaying it out would be fun, though. [b]Edit:[/b] Oh and I made a version with some 6th Sense vehicles (BTR80, CH47D, BMD-1) and weapons (Bizon, RPD, M14, SCAR-L CQB Eotech) The 6thSense version isn't running on the server, but Edberg will probably get it and run it every once in a blue moon (Or whenever I feel like it, which will be just as often).
Holy fucking shit, ArmA has fucking [B][I]COOP!?[/I][/B] Fucking shit I need to buy this game! Goddamn fuck wow!
I'm installing arma right now just because of this (Hi EdBerg, long time no chat.)
[QUOTE=VIRUS]Holy fucking shit, ArmA has fucking [B][I]COOP!?[/I][/B] Fucking shit I need to buy this game! Goddamn fuck wow![/QUOTE] A lot of ArmA's community is actually based around coop :downs:

Where exactly do i download everything so i can play?
I played a zombie server once...most fun i've ever had...didn't last long though only had one other player with me lol. I'll see if i can dig up my Arma Disc tomorrow. [b]Edit:[/b] Do I need Queens Gambit?
Nope. No QG needed. [b]Edit:[/b] [QUOTE=Dylan_94]Where exactly do i download everything so i can play?[/QUOTE] It's on the OP, mah boi.
I can't get unpbo to do anything. I'm a noob to this stuff.
Basically, the way Arma Pbo View (If you don't use that one, then use it) is this. You open the program and choose to unpack a pbo. It'll then make a folder with the same name as the PBO you extracted, with all of the pbo's contents inside of it. Use Arma Pbo View to extract the addons pack, then go find every single PBO that comes out of the big PBO you downloaded and shove it all in your addons folder. Tada! If you get a complaint about NIM_Weather or clouds or something, go find that addon and install it manually.
I couldn't find my disc. But i found my CD Key...So i torrented it,trying to mount ...grr.. Got it. I'm installing now. Can i get a walkthrough on how to install that mod?
Read the above post. That tells you how to extract the addon pack that comes with it. Why the balls he uses a .pbo as a .zip, I'll never know. I may reupload all of them in a regular zip to filesmelt at some point.
Alright well i think i got it. I just need to update...which i'm doing now.
Downloading ArmA right now (From the website, I bought it yay) should be done tomorrow morning.
This looks fun :dance: I'll download it all and check it out tomorrow.
Still trying to work this out...I think i'm missing something
I'm going to try and install it how you said again, hopefully it works :) [b]Edit:[/b] Blargh this shit is too frustrating. Maybe next time.
ok got it all set. Just patching now. i hope...
Ok so, I just went out and bought ArmA. I'm completely new to the game and the mod, what should I know?
Basically, the most important thing is try your best not to playerkill. If you do it in a roleplaying fashion (Throw some dialogue in there, make it interesting) then it's not so bad but running around shooting every player in sight isn't necessarily a good thing. Oh, and the guards at the starting area and the military base don't take kindly to player killing, they generally shoot you after you've done it. Anyway, as for ArmA as a whole, it's definitely a slow-paced game. It's got a few more bugs than your average game, and it's got performance problems as well. That being said, the way it's all set up (Especially in Quarantine) is pretty much based around trying to have fun. It's definitely a military sim, and there are competitive communities based around this, but there's also an extensive cooperative community as well. If you're interested in Coop, I'd definitely suggest the mission "Evolution". There's multiple versions - pick the one that suits your fancy.
You should have a self installer for the mod files, so you can download it while trying to join the server.
I might pick this up, it's only 10$ at wallmart v:v:v
Is Queen's Gambit required?
