Don't play on Warlords Redux

[Foreigner]

This server is not a good, nor balanced one.

First of all some words about its admins, WarSimVetarans.
A bunch of very bad hypocritic people. On the first day when I've joined their discord - one of their people said that they're ready to help a losing side and are willing to play with everyone. But in reality they constantly play on BLUFOR side, always together. They never join a losing side.
These people utilize extremely dirty tactics, cut off capture points in the beginning of the match so the opposite side won't get any CPs. In other words are very sweaty tryhards.

Server has a list of exploits - capturing with drones, cars with a single man in a certain place. And WSV are using these exploits to win games. They fix them only after a plethora of people literally cry about them to be fixed.

Also a major cheaters problem. Quite often I could see that a losing side would do something magical and all the drones would fall down on the ground. Literally every drone in the air on any point of the map would be destroyed. I doubt there's any kind of special weapon that destroys all of them.

WSV wouldn't do anything about it either. Last time I told them that they have unfair exploits and cheater issues - I was called a crybaby and banned of their discord.


To sum it all up - Warlords Redux is an unfair, unbalanced playground for WSV members to get easy wins off the people who join in to genuinely play for fun. They ban people who point out their exploits, fix them only if they become noticed by literally every second player on the server. They do that because they use these same exploits to gain unfair advantage.
They play "war simulator" against people who has less than 100 hours in the game. While everybody plays for fun, WSV plays for win. They play to feel empowered. And then they insult the losing side. Bully it at the end by camping respaws and airports.
Warlords Redux have major exploit and cheaters issues. And these people are not banned for them.
Its a very toxic, unfair and unbalanced place, not worth playing at.


So far I've come to know several exploits, such as:
Using drones to capture points

Having an offroard HMG with a man sitting at the gunner's place. Somehow it neglects everybody who's holding the point. A single offroad with two people captures a point with 5-10 people holding it.
It's an actual example.

Major, most noticed cheat was one that destroys every drone on the map. Might be worse.

Played on the server numerous times, it did seem to me to be very unbalanced every time I joined and there is some fishy ♥♥♥♥ going on it does happen on other warlords servers but Redux is worst for it imo, haven't had a good experience with the server, tho the official warlords servers are good a lot of the time.. Still get the random tryhard hackattacks but hey.

PS an EMP device would take out any drones if it were powerful enough and detonated from above.

I know that the "device vehicle" is turned into a shroud. A shield against rockets. It's not an EMP. As far as I know - there are no EMP's on the server.
Device might be it, but I doubt it can destroy all the drones.

Yeah I'd highly doubt it would take all drones out across the map your right as I don't think there is huge emp devices in game even there may be smaller devices but nothing that would do that. Clearly someone using the ol hacks lol.

All of the Warlords servers are ♥♥♥♥ and filled with a bunch of snotty players. Most of them have no reason to be aside from connections with admins, since I guess that warrants that type of attitude I've experienced.

You should fit in just fine...

Afraid not.

Its just that certain people get so good and then they wont let other people have a chance. That chance might be reflexive speed, or it might be hiding in a rock or using other exploits. People don't wanna die, and they resort to anything.

[Kiloton]

Not surprised. Arma 3's community is just as rotten as the Battlefield community.

[Brumton Newton]

I 100 percent agree the WSV members are highly abusive and toxic, they should not be fighting players the way they do and they do exploit the game and abuse what power they have in that official server. they frequently make personal insults toward players, harass them and try to get players worked up, so they can get players they dont like banned.

WSV admin here
we do not have any power over the actual eu#11 server itself; it's hosted by bohemia interactive and having any 3rd parties have administrative access to any servers they host is a big no-no for them (and they're right)

brumton newton was first banned on his first account by bohemia interactive staff for spamming the N word in side channel & then proceeded to evade their ban on a secondary account (which we have proof of)

we play whatever team we wish to play on, and unfair stacking is basically impossible as we have implemented a balancing feature so that there can only be a difference of 3 players across all teams

admins of WSV do not have any advantage whatsoever on the server
the device truck only stops guided munitions, it is completely vulnerable to unguided munitions (tank rounds, artillery, dumb rockets, dumb bombs, autocannon fire & even MMG fire if the engine is taken out) and to balance it out we have made it consume large amounts of fuel very quickly if both the missile jammer (dazzler) and the drone jammer are both on at the same time

sometimes updates will arrive later than expected because of either development issues, lack of bugtesting requiring more refining of patches, or simply just bohemia interactive staff not being available to update the servers (we send the update file to them & they examine it and if it is safe to release, they update the servers)

capture values of drones has been set to zero (i.e. ugv stomper will no longer be able to capture a sector on its own) and capture values have been rebalanced (i.e. the offroad HMG cannot capture an entire sector by itself anymore) and issues with drones are usually linked to BI updates, and as of now there are no issues with drones whatsoever that we know of on our servers

we have already attempted to implement anticheat systems to eu#11 but bohemia interactive were very reluctant, because such systems are a security issue for them as they do not allow any kind of 3rd party anticheats to run on their own servers

we don't ban people off our discord server unless we find that they're disruptive to the community (and even if we do ban you off our discord server, you are still free to play on eu#11)

we also have a small development team that completely voluntarily contributing to warlords redux and you also have to understand they cannot dedicate their entire lives to developing a community-ran project hosted on bohemia interactive servers

i can assure you everyone is welcome to join our servers (whether that be on discord or on arma) and all feedback is appreciated

[Foreigner]

One of your admins still banned me for the feedback. His replies were very evasive and basically provoking.

Updates came only after this post. The problem of abuse and stacking was there when I was playing.

If you cannot handle Nword and alienate someone who's using it - don't post messages online. You tolerate cheats, abusive bullying, toxic competetiveness and overall autistic behavior, but cannot handle someone saying nword online.

Prosecution:
Ladies and gentlemen, we are gathered here to examine the deeply flawed management of the Warlords Redux server. The prosecution argues that WSV administrators have fostered a culture of favoritism and toxicity, exploiting their power to manipulate gameplay and alienate members of the community. Multiple witnesses testify to repeated incidents of admins exploiting glitches for personal gain and dismissing legitimate player concerns. The anticheat measures and balance updates, as touted by the defense, are mere window dressing—a superficial attempt to placate the masses while leaving the core issues unresolved. The admins’ dismissive responses to complaints further demonstrate their contempt for fairness and accountability, leaving honest players in an unwelcoming environment of unchecked abuses.

Defense:
The defense categorically denies these baseless accusations and points to the immense challenges of managing a server on a limited hosting platform. Balancing gameplay and addressing exploits is no simple task, yet WSV admins have implemented multiple patches and updates to maintain fairness. The accusations of favoritism and exploit abuse are exaggerated, stemming from frustration and misunderstanding rather than factual evidence. The community’s claims lack substantial proof, often fueled by toxic behavior from those who seek to disrupt rather than improve. The defense asserts that the WSV team is committed to fostering a balanced, enjoyable environment for all players, despite the relentless and often unfair criticism they face. The focus should remain on constructive solutions, not petty blame.
