Welcome to Atlas Defense Industries

Atlas Defense Industries (ADI) is one of the largest (and still fastest growing) organizations in the Star Citizen community. Founded in the spring of 2013 by an 18 person leadership team, ADI's original leadership and membership came from a simulator-gaming background with significant experience running large clans in a number of games (Falcon 4 BMS, Arma 2 and 3, and DCS). ADI's leadership team has background in running top 10 organizations over the course of the last 14 years, some going all the way back to WWIIOL in June 2001. Outside of gaming, the leadership team (and our members) has a variety of real world experience, including many members with prior military service, and even experienced military trained pilots.

Step 1. Read the rules
- Rule #1: Don't be a jerk.
- Rule #2: Don't cause drama.
- Rule #3: Real life comes first.
If members break any of these rules more than once, they will be asked to leave ADI.
Step 2. Verify all your names match
In an org of this size, record-keeping is a headache, and mismatched names creates big problems. Make sure your ADI forum account name matches your RSI handle and moniker. NOTE: We do not allow spaces, special characters or more than one dash or underscore in a name.- Please make sure your RSI handle and moniker match: click here for detailed instructions on how to change them if necessary.
- Make sure your ADI forum account name matches your RSI handle and moniker. NOTE: We do not allow spaces or other special characters on our forums excerpt for a single - or _ and they can not be at the beginning or end of your name.
- Name must be easily pronounceable, must not be tactically confusing (i.e. "Contact 01"), limit "Leet" speak, no racists or sexual innuendo.
- Make sure your Mumble callsign matches your RSI handle/moniker and your ADI forums name.
Step 3. Join ADI on the RSI website
Please visit our RSI Org page - the link is below. Once there, click the 'Join us now!' button and enter your handle in the 'Your application:' box. Please make sure you are not part of another organization ingame - ADI is an exclusive org.Also, make sure you've selected 'VISIBLE' as your membership type. ADI does not accept AFFILIATE, HIDDEN or REDACTED memberships. Then click SUBMIT.
Step 4. Sign up on the forums
All official communication within ADI is done on our private forums.
Click on this link to create an account (yahoo and Microsoft - hotmail, outlook, Live) addresses are not presently allowed). Once you've made one, visit the Introductions forum and follow the application instructions there. Please note that as a new account, you won't see your introduction post until a staff member approves it.Step 5. Get on Mumble
All members of ADI are required to use our voice communications server. Set up Mumble.
- We strongly recommend that you use a headset and have made sure it's set up properly.
- Please make sure you're in a quiet area, or turn on push-to-talk by going to configure and settings on Mumble. Change transmit to 'push to talk'. You can set up the push-to-talk hotkey in shortcuts on the same screen.
- Once you're set up, connect to our server (address in the instructions below) and a staff member will find you in the lobby.
Step 6. Participate in onboarding
ADI wants to make sure we have quality members who will mesh with the group from day 1. To achieve this, we do a voice interview with every prospective member. This gives you the chance to ask questions about the organization and get familiar with us and our culture.
- Connect to mumble.
- If somebody doesn't greet you in a few seconds, look for members with |P|, |TL|, |AD|, or {D} next to their name.
- Right click on their name, and click on 'send message'. Explain to them you're new and would like to join ADI.
- One of them will come shortly and will move you to a private channel and proceed to onboard you.
- Towards the end of the onboarding, you will be provided a link to our ADI Discord which is required.
