The stock game has quite a lot of the new features that were "new" in ACE. I bet they are going to make ARMA3 ACE. If anyone wants an invite on the 14th the Alpha invites come out and there should be plenty floating around in the ARMA3 thread.

Also they have already imported ARMA2 and OA map's to ARMA3.

I've never played vanilla Arma II or any of the available mods except DayZ(fun while it lasted), but is there a mod that is like insurgents vs counterinsurgents? Like, one side or the other gets a 'mission'(convoy, patrol this village, attack this PB or whatever) and the other side has to set up to counter this mission(or maybe they have no knowledge of it and set up to do something else). It seems like Arma II would be perfect for this sort of thing and the idea sounds fun to me.

I think that JIEDDO had some sort of mod like this set up using a game that looked like Arma II for IED training.

Man, gently caress the last boss of MGR. He's incredibly awesome but I spent like two hours last night unsuccessfully. It could also be that I was super loving tired and my reflexes were dogshit.

As much as I complain, I will still likely bitch out and buy it eventually.

I've still got 4" of snow in the yard, no worries.

It probably was Arma II. The game itself was ported from the simulation that the military built; we used it to do route clearance stuff at the engineer school.

I think they legitimately forgot to design their authentication application for load balancing, so like a handful of servers were getting hammered with requests. They took them down for emergency patching yesterday; I didn't play at all last night.

People bitching about the small city sizes are really just looking for excuses; I'm having a blast so far (when I can play). In a week or two when they un-gently caress their datacenter or their application, it'll be fun.

I spent about two hours on him but the time I managed to kill him I didn't take any damage. It was that crazy time of drunkeness where everything just kinda flows together.

Threw 4 hours at last boss of MGR over two days, couldn't beat him.

Went back a chapter, farmed 5 health thingies.

First attempt with 5 health thingies, bring him from 200->10 and stayed above 70% of health on the first goddamn tank.

gently caress you, game.
