Zeus Community Gaming Nights

As of the release of ArmA3 Alpha, we only play ArmA2 on Sunday nights (ACE MOD)

• Current Mod SUNDAYS: ACE Mod
• Current Addon Pack: @Zcommon
• Current Comms::
• We use a mixture of Teamspeak and ingame VOIP and sometimes ACRE

About @Zcommon:
This is a relatively small addon pack that contains a selection of 3rd party islands and a few client-side addons that you may find useful.
If you do not turn up with @Zcommon we will try to accomodate you, however it will limit us with the choice of islands that we can play on

@zcommon was last updated on 13th January 2013
Available as a YOMA repository
Available from SixUpdater Click on Link: sixupdater://zeus-community.net/six/Zeus.yml Select Zeus from available servers


Zeus Manual:

We have created a :icon_arrow: zeusmanual.pdf which is designed to guide you through downloading and configuring all the files and applications that you will need to play with us.
This includes

• Teamspeak 3 (We do however use the built in VOIP system during missions)
• Yoma's addon Sync (Used to download and sync our @Zcommon addon pack)

Count me in. Had lots of fun on Zeus in the couple of times i've been on it, and will definitely be on for more. You picked two shocking nights for your public nights though

[Smuke]

Would show up, but RBC have their missions on those two days, at those two times!

coop? no thanks

You picked two shocking nights for your public nights though

We have traditionally played on those two nights, we have always found it to have the highest turn out
However we do have things in the pipeline for other nights and would love to get back to 24/7 coverage

coop? no thanks

I used to be all for CTF and C&H (PVP)
However I now find those type of missions nothing more than a fragfest, which other games cater for far better.
I find it much more entertaining to work with others in a coop to achieve an end goal, than I do being a loner on some CTF mission which are rarely well led if led at all.

ArmA was built for large scale battles and we believe we fully exploit that

However I now find those type of missions nothing more than a fragfest

fragfest on CTF yes, and plays extremely well. no fragfest on other pvp gametypes. more of a scenic walk around by yourself usually. just not enough people playing.

I find it much more entertaining to work with others in a coop to achieve an end goal

working with others to achieve an end goal is exactly what happens on a good pvp server, except its against other people and not against artificial bots. far more rewarding, less predictable, more fun. PVP IS COOP, without the bots.

again, not enough people playing the far superior pvp gametype. if there were as many charlie foxtrot type servers stuffed with players as there are coop ones then people would have the chance to see why pvp is a superior game.

And if you enjoy playing with Zeus so much ( :P ), you can always hop on the Teamspeak server and say hi. We're usually testing/editing our own missions, or playing ArmA2. And we play a few other games as well.
