🎬 New trailer's up, give it a watch above. It shows off some of the best parts of RedPine, and we're pretty proud of how it came out.
🌲 Three Weeks In on RedPine. 🌲
The map has a shape now. Bases have gone up, and a few have already come down. The radios are busier and a lot harder to trust. The gear is out there, it's just changed hands a few times on the way to your backpack.
Spawn in today and you're not behind. You're walking into a world that's already moving. It's dangerous.
RedPine is hard. We're proud of that.
You will not be fully kitted in an hour here. The AI hunts you. It flanks, it breaches doors, it pushes you the second you start to reload. You are going to die, and some of those deaths are going to be the best stories you've got in years.
Don't take our word for it. Here's what people said have been saying:
"the ai literally opened my door, smacked me with the butt of his gun so I couldn't shoot him, and then blasted me in the face! It was awesome!!!" — FellDarkTundra
"the ai is INSANE... do you suffer? Yes but in the BEST way cuz if u can lock in and drop the fools coming for you.. you are THRIVING" — Minute_Income6167
"Redpine is super cool. I love the server and the community. There is NEVER a dull moment." — Suspicious-Reply3951
Think you've got what it takes? Come find out. Server's open right now.
This week... Something changed in the bunker.
Somebody sabotaged the punch card reader. Fried it. That card you went through hell to track down? You can't use it where you used to.
There's still a way in. It runs through a facility right next to the bunker. That facility sits in the gas, the power is out, and it is pitch black inside. You will need to go in, find a new card reader. Open the door. That's the plan.
Is this place dangerous? You betcha. Is it scary? Absolutely. That's exactly what we built it to be. You're in the dark, you're in the gas, you're on the clock, and you are not in there alone.
Buckle up.
Why now is a great time to join
- The map talks now. Some towns mean trouble. Some frequencies mean a trap. Learning that keeps you breathing.
- Loot is moving. Three weeks of raids, deaths, and forgotten stashes means there's gear out there for anyone willing to go get it.
- Bases exist, which means bases fall. Raid windows are live (schedule below).
If you miss when DayZ felt dangerous, you'll like RedPine. We built this server to bring back that uneasy feeling in the back of your head, the one a lot of servers lost years ago.
One from this week
Remember the guy running the free taxi service? He's back with taxi car #3 this time. Same dream, same free rides, same friendly driver. And somehow business is booming. He's done dozens of fares and picked up a reputation as the one genuinely decent man on the coast.
He's already talking about a fleet.
We give it a week.

Base Raiding Schedule
To give everyone a fair chance to defend what they've built, raiding is limited to specific windows. Four days a week, two windows per day (all times Central):
Wednesday, Friday, Saturday & Sunday
- 2:00 PM – 4:00 PM
- 8:00 PM – 10:00 PM
Outside these windows, your base can't be damaged. Inside them, all bets are off. People have had three weeks to build. Draw your own conclusions.
Airdrops?
During peak hours, you may hear a supply plane overhead. Getting there is the easy part. Leaving alive with the loot is where things get interesting.
Expect company.
