  2. As much as we would love/want to do this (and we have looked into doing it already), for us to shift a reforger focus we would need to take a step back in the Arma 3 scene, which would not be sustainable at the current state of Arma for us to do. Its not that we are not capable or willing, despite it being a new language we have people that actually know how to work within C#, its that the sacrifice/manpower we'd have to give up to go full steam ahead may not be healthy for the A3 server at the moment. Unless we have more people step up to the plate to take on that challenge, a reforger server is not right around the corner. If we had anything in the works it would be a slow and steady project, and not one we would push a release on.

  3. Ohhhh boy… here we go 🔥

    Let’s not waste time — we’re kicking June off with a massive update. Price match is back. Tournament’s on standby. And yeah… we’re giving away $30 million. Let’s get into it 👇 (Holy god damn ChatGPT cooked with this one, cringe af though)


    💸 PRICE MATCH IS LIVE

    First big thing I want to announce is that until June 30th, we will be matching all Donations you make up to $100. This does NOT apply to previous donations — only anything starting from today going forward.

    So if you donate $100, you’ll get a $200 value total.

    This is only redeemable once, and it’s one of the few price matches we’ll be doing on Olympus this year — the next one probably won’t be until the major holidays, so don’t try to wait it out.

    ⚠️ Important:

    • Make sure you SELECT STRIPE as the payment method

    • Once you donate, you MUST submit a Donation Support Ticket so we can apply the extra funds to your account

    • Be patient with tickets — we’ll get to everyone!


    🎁 $30 MILLION GIVEAWAY

    We’re also running a quick little giveaway just because:

    🥇 $15,000,000
    🥈 $10,000,000
    🥉 $5,000,000

    Enter here 👉 https://olympus-entertainment.com/raffles/raffle/63-money-giveaway/


    🎯 JUNE DONATION GOAL UNLOCK: BLACKJACK TOURNAMENT

    If the June donation goal hits 100%, we’re unlocking the Olympus Blackjack Tournament — hosted online, fully run by staff in a private table setup.

    🃏 TOURNAMENT DETAILS:
    💰 Starting Prize Pool: $30,000,000
    💵 Minimum Buy-In: $5,000,000
    📈 Prize pool increases as more people buy in — expect chaos, but fat pockets

    📍 Location: Private online table (invite-only)
    📅 Date: Drops once we finalize details

    Bracket-style format. 6-player tables. Winner takes the pot.

    Once it hits 100%, it’s on.


    🛍️ BONUS STORE CODES (STRIPE ONLY)

    💥 Code Degen – Free $15 in the store if you’re @Olympus Plus  (Valid till 6/20/25)
    💥 Code MiloSucksNuts – 15% off all Stripe (non-donation) purchases (Valid till 6/20/25) - Bonus points if you flame @ Milo  in status updates for why you hate him, might do an extra $15M giveaway in Discord if you do


    Stripe supports Apple Pay, Google Pay, and more — no excuses.

    Let’s run it up, hit 100%, and deal some god damn cards. @ xsmitherz  May run a poker tournament as well 🙂 
    ♠️ Good luck.

  4. 6 hours ago, Mako said:

    Since you're unlikely to get an informative answer I'll put the pros and cons, we're interested in the prospect and probed around prior to December regarding setup, tooling, etc.

    Pros:

    • Popular on social media
    • New playerbase - Console Andys
    • Economy reset
    • Modding is built into the engine
    • Boundless opportunity for creativity on map, models, mechanics
    • Lots of freely usable content under APL-SA 'Free use and modification'
    • Better default UI
    • Better Tooling/Debugging
    • Ability to completely reset the board for how we handle factions, staff, etc.
    • Start on a fresher framework or custom build our own (Tonic 🧑‍🦼)

    Cons:

    • No monetization policy - Cannot even make skins as a donor option
    • Hit registration
    • More DayZ like combat (I personally like it since it's not shit like DayZ just similar)
    • Cheats existent
      • Would require familiarization + extensive work to start the back and forth that is dealing with it
    • Minimal Battlemetrics support ^
    • Lack of familiarization for the entire team regarding language, tooling
    • Slots limited to 128

    I would say that we're interested in it but there is more interest in engaging with the server we currently have. Things are generally stable enough to put the effort into branching out but there are major redflags by BI within the Cons section.

    Perfect statement honestly^^

    TLDR Been interested since the game came out in 2022, looked more into it when it went into 1.0 in 2023. As a firm believer of the Arma 4 wave, reforger would of been the smarter move to start with. But these last 2-3 years of looking into the game and making some development attempts with the team, essentially the results are what Mako said. We'd have to neglect the Arma 3 server almost entirely to get a good, successful project quickly up and running and thats something in this day and age of Arma we cannot afford to do, especially for a game thats just a "stepping stone" to the overall goal. But, that doesnt mean we wont keep our hands in that pot and work on it, just means it isnt our #1 priority currently until we master the essentials needed, just like we mastered Arma 3. We wouldnt want to throw something up just for shits and giggles, especially if it cant compare to the quality of what we produce now. Shit, we got the most stacked "Vanilla" based server on the entirety of this game. Don't worry though, we arent out of the game for Reforger fully yet 😉 

  5. I was gonna give you some money for being a new player but then I just looked at your stats... $40MIL?! ALREADY?! HOW!? ARE YOU A PROFESSIONAL GAMBLER OR A TYCOON FARMER?! HELLO!?? GOOD JOB!

    For real though, glad you're having fun 🙂 Appreciate the kind words. Next step for you is to just hate on @ Milo  and then you are officially welcomed to the community 😛

  6. Heyo! As you guys may know, every year we try to do a recap video for Olympus. Unfortunately ive had too much going on in my personal life and did not have the ability to do it, however @ Tyrone Jefferson  has volunteered to take up the challenge himself 🙂 z

    You can submit your entries here
    It can be anything within the year 2024, preferably not a montage though

    Each used clip is $500k into your deposit box if it makes it 🙂
