NBR Members Make Extras Donations To Stop The Server Closing We came mighty close to calling it a day this month. The server was set to close this Friday, but thanks to a few of our members making extra donations this month to pay the server bills we have been saved from closure. Going forward we are going to downgrade the server spec slightly to reduce our costs. This will not impact performance in any way as the server we …

All the new weapons, vehicles and equipment released with the Arma 3 Apex update are now included on our server. As a consequence of this update we have had to start with a fresh database which means that all your lovely money has been given to the poor and you will have to set about starting to fill your bank …
New Server Issues
Fine Tuning Of New Server Is Ongoing Folks, since we launched the new server this week, we have encountered a few teething problems with the performance. Its a completely new set up and it will take a little time to get everything fine tuned and running smoothly. We were not able to do any testing before launch with many more than 6 people, so we need to monitor things now when the server is full and under load. We are …
It’s Alive..!
Brand New NBR Wasteland Server Is Online Our brand new Arma 3 Wasteland Stratis server is now up and running. It should provide the best possible performance. There have been a number of changes and improvements to both the server code and the map and config. I will make a full post on everything that has changed when my eyes return to their normal shape after completing this massive task! If you just use the direct connect tab from …
Upcoming Server IP Change
Shiny New Server Inbound Thanks to the current number of NBR memberships, and in order to continue to improve the performance and high standards we set on our NBR Stratis Wasteland server, we have decided to move to a much better machine! This will require a change to the current server IP. The proposed change is planned to take place over this coming weekend. Our current server will be locked and the name changed to tell people that the server has moved IP. The …
Player Stats To Be Removed
What Are We Doing? To try and enhance our ability to say thank you to the small number of people that currently help us out with our bills by becoming community members, we will be removing the Player Stats page from public access in the next week or so. All NBR members will receive password access to the Player Stats linked to their in game GUID. Why Are We Doing This? Bohemia made it difficult for us to be able …
New Revive System
What Are We Doing? We took a vote here on the website and the majority of those people that voted said they would like to see a change to the current revive system. So we have implemented a trial period of a new system when reviving people. You can still heal yourself and team mates unlimited times per Med Kit, but reviving a wounded team mate will now remove your Med Kit from your inventory: 1 Revive = 1 Med …
Our Prayers Have Been Answered
And on the 8th day, god created Bohemia Interactive Studios! Finally, Bohemia have managed to give us the ability to disable voice chat on the side channel, hip hip hooray!! Naturally we have implemented this protocol immediately, so there will be no more annoying idiots that simply cannot comprehend the concept that not everyone on their team needs to hear their urgent information updates on the enemy (or their stupid songs, pathetic comments or general retarded ignorance). Let us all …

The update focuses on a new rendering engine to bring a more photo realistic graphical output to Arma 3. We ask everyone to let us know if they find anything not working, broken or not performing to our usual high standards and we can get on with trying …
Website Updated
We have updated the No Bullshit Revolution website today to a new design. We decided that the old format was getting a little tired, had quite a few graphical output errors and was not optimised for mobile browsers. There is some sort of issue with the voting results not showing up correctly unless you have placed a vote, but we will do what we can to work out why this is happening and get it fixed. Other than that, we …
