Dang sounds like that guy got told a lesson on a whole new level.

I for one hope that this makes a come back, the podcast created some awesome discussions about the community. The various ideas pitched during the podcasts also prompted some possible future changes to Olympus' servers.

Might be hard to find cops that are willing to stand around all day doing nothing. Cops are somewhat limited as of right now as well, good idea though.

Use bolt cutters?

Can't say that I've ever met you but none the less, have a good one man. Best of luck to working past those IRL issues, hope you enjoy the next community as much as you enjoyed Olympus'.

Military bases guarded by AI is something that already exists in the Wasteland mod. I personally think that Altis Life's strong point is the interactions between players, not fighting artificial intelligence.

The main reason why kidneys were removed from Olympus, is because players would run up to fugitives being held by the APD take their kidneys and run off. This forced the APD's resources to be split between catching the kidney thieves and processing fugitives already in restraints. It was quite frustrating to deal with when it happened.

Warfare voted for Snake... That's some real sportsmanship right there.

Welcome to the community, hope you enjoy your stay! I'm sure there would be some gangs that would be willing to take you under their wing. Random civilians on the streets would probably be interested in showing you the ropes if you ask them nicely. Best of luck!

Outstanding issue as always. Keep up the great work guys.

Nice work on this issue!

Welcome to the community! Enjoy your stay!

The black and white version has my vote!

This was really enjoyable to read through, hopefully we can see one issue of Olympus Now at the end of every week.

I've never been on-duty during marshal law but to my understanding, it is only called after there has been a constant attempt to contain the city's civilians. It is then decided by the admins if the APD will be able to reclaim the city, or if marshal law is the one and only way to reclaim the city. For example, I've been on duty in Kavala while rdmers and vdmers ran wild for over an hour and a half strong. With a total of five officers online, we stuck together in groups of 2-3 officers at any given time to watch each others backs. After detaining the wanted civilians we brought them into a safe place to be processed, which in this case was Kavala HQ. Even though the situation seemed impossible to overcome, we worked through it building to building and reclaimed the city before too long.

I think that it would be cool if there were a series of screenshots/video or something like a spinning Olympus logo on screen in place of the center window. Like you already said this is not going to be the regular format (guests and webcams). But if it's ever just you and Mcdili, I think that this would be a nice addition.

That looks awesome, nice hardware choices as well.

The thing you need to keep in mind is that the 780ti is built specifically for gaming, while the titan series is build for game development. In very simple terms, the 780ti has a higher base clock rate while the Titan Z has a very high amount of video ram, much higher than the 780ti. I would recommend purchasing the 780ti, unless you're playing on three monitors at 4K+ resolution. The price of the Titan Z does not make up for the extra performance that it has over the 780ti. PS. When I say "playing on three monitors" I DO NOT mean one screen with your game and two companion displays that have your web browser and teamspeak. I'm talking having your game on all three monitors at the same time. Ex: http://i.ytimg.com/vi/uR1Cy75DOXE/maxresdefault.jpg

This is already a topic in the "approved topics" list.

BLTN Podcast Suggestion: Travis stepping down from his position as Chief of Police. A second part to this topic could be about Ace, the new Chief of Police.

Have a good read over the rules in preparation for the end of your 14 day ban. From there once you understand the rules you won't get banned again.
