That's too bad you guys couldn't play. We ended up getting 8 people (7 players, one zeus), which is probably the best turnout since things started dying off in ArmA 2. If the player count keeps going up, maybe we can split up into a couple of squads/fireteams and try some of the longer range radios in TFR.

If the opportunity ever presents itself I have some things we might be able to do if Soapy wants to shoot mans rather than Zeus a session.

The one we played this weekend is one we've just added AGM modules to and should be available in your MPMissions Cache folder in the AppSettings folder somewhere. I'll probably sit down with LEA this week to add some of the STI weapons to the map just for variations sake. Although with the clipping issues we encountered I might skip the M4's and give everybody SCAR's instead. No idea what caused the issue with bandages not working though. Might just go with dropping a bunch of FAKs into people's inventory instead and let AGM do its magic with those.

Oh cool, didn't know game days were happening. I'll definitely show up for the next one, i've got an itching for ARMA lately. e: i swear to god play with six isn't even a program, just an elaborately coded waste of time and energy, just going ahead and downloading and extracting took about a fifth of the time I spent fiddling with PWS klapman fucked around with this message at 23:05 on Sep 7, 2014 |

Oh, the Teamspeak 3 info is just Gooncave.com and we currently still don't have a set server so we usually work that out in Teamspeak as the session is about to start.

Sorry about the rather abrupt end to that session. My machine seems to take issue with playing A3 for too long before hardlocking itself. We'll probably have to look into a dedicated setup for real to make this thing work so I don't end up ruining all the time. I probably have to look into a complete computer overhaul as well if I wanna continue playing this.

ggs had fun look forward to next week i enjoyed the medic stuff -- edit: only complaint was that we didn't actually start the op until 70 minutes after it was scheduled to start. Love Stole the Day fucked around with this message at 01:59 on Sep 21, 2014 |

Still had fun learning the new systems in ACE which I haven't used in forever. Sucks server died right when I was getting the hang of things both times too. First time I had flanked a bunch of dudes and wiped them out, went down, and just got healed back up to continue my assault when the server crashed. Second time my squad was crossing a danger area and busily wiping out all kinds of terrorists, and I had just opened up on a team trying to sneak around the back. thanks for putting up with me!

To add on to the discussion from earlier between the first and second ops: To help do away with the need to respawns, what we if we had ops that didn't take a long to compelte? Say, 30 minute or 45 minute ones? Like I said earlier when I originally suggested that you guys finally make the move to ArmA 3, I like to think of myself as pretty good at mission making... so I can do this if you guys want. I actually have a little portfolio of playable missions we could use right now or even next week if you wanted to.

Holding your dick for 20-45 minutes staring at a black screen because a sniper instakilled you or your vehicle got rpged at the start of an op isn't fun.

edit: meh forget about it Completely agree with you guys here. Here's another perspective on the topic: Of course it's worth restarting if people get killed at the start of an op, but if they die halfway through the mission, should they be allowed to come back as their same role if they die? What if I'm a squad leader and I get picked off 25%~75% into a mission? When I respawn, should I still be squad leader or should I just be another member of the squad? Stuff like that is the motivation for why I'm bringing this up. The same point can be made for all sorts of other important roles: CAS Pilots, Medics, If the ops were short (30~45 minutes), we would have actual consequences for dying as opposed to just saying "lol its k ill just respawn." We all want to play Army Man here, of course, but --- Also, I'm almost done with a mission for you guys to play next week if you want. It's for 20 players, and the mission is to seek and destroy two armored vehicles hidden in the central forests of Stratis. I call it "Fear of the Dark," after the Iron Maiden single from the early '90s. If there are any requests for equipment loadouts for certain roles (players are NATO and AI are CSAT), let me know and I can set it up. edit^2: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=316743305 is the mission. Because of the Steam Cloud, you can just click the Subscribe thing and whenever I update it, it'll auto-update for you next time you try to run the mission (if ever). I'll probably add my other missions that I've made in the past as well, I guess. This mission only took me ~2 hours, so it's just a simple little gimmick to play to pass the time.

It's actually probably the most polished thing I've ever seen Bohemia do, the ropes are full physics instead of fake attachTo trickery, the weight of the vehicle even influences the helicopter and can drag it off course.

How many shooting trials have you done now that Vehicle shooting has been included? Just to see what's in store for that. I'm eagerly awaiting any possible Generation Kill Humvee missions for when the DLC comes out.

Cooked Auto posted:How many shooting trials have you done now that Vehicle shooting has been included? Just to see what's in store for that. Smoother than expected, you can be pretty accurate even at high speeds. Can shoot from the benches on the back of the transport truck, benches of helicopters that have them, back of the offroad, from the side of the inflatable boat. Not from the ATV. Downsides are most helicopters have their doors shut so you can't fire from them and range of motion is fairly limited for no reason on most seats.

LCL-Dead posted:There is a doors mod for this that allows you to open the ghosthawk/merlin doors. It's been re-released on the BI forums but I have an older version of it as well, same funtionality in both. Would need a mod to open the doors and a mod that allows firing from the inside seats or sitting in the door and firing. The seats you can shoot from are a new kind of seat and don't function the same as the old ones. You sit relaxed but trying to shoot puts you into a special stance where your upper body rotates and you can ADS and shoot. I think you return to normal sitting if you don't aim down sights for a while. We fired from the back of a transport truck while driving over rocks and hilly terrain at full speed and did several tests from the benches of helicopters that supported it. The movement doesn't have any of the funky feel you'd expect from our experiences with Arma, your aim gets jittery during quick turns but is otherwise good. E: Bonus screenshots Soapy glitches the animation blending  We drop a sub from a helicopter going 200km/h, it bounces off the ocean and goes into orbit at 4900km/h getting several minutes of hang time. Sling loading glitches are few but are really extreme when they happen.
