ARMA Series (I, II, III) - It's like the 4th of July! - Games

[QUOTE=acds;39854825]Every single server that is under 100ms latency is either Co-Op or Wasteland, fuck. Finding good servers has always been hell in Arma.[/QUOTE] That's why you don't play Arma on public servers.

[QUOTE=jrj996;39855247]Woo got ArmA III! What's Wasteland run like on here?[/QUOTE] It can either run fine or terrible. The multiplayer is broken for some people, you'll only get 18 FPS at most if you're like me. Changing the settings does nothing.

Is the Take On Helicopters flight model stuff supposed to be a simulator? It's really not. A2's was much better but I can't find the option to put it back.

[QUOTE=Kung Fu Jew;39855371]Is the Take On Helicopters flight model stuff supposed to be a simulator? It's really not. A2's was much better but I can't find the option to put it back.[/QUOTE] I'm gonna go ahead and guess that the helicopters aren't finished either, like the armor and planes that they didn't include, but decided to include a couple of them to satisfy new players and infantry-based missions. Because they did confirm that the TKOH flight model would be in the game, as a toggle-able difficulty option.

When I put a gun (specifically a Rook-40) in my clothes and then draw it back out, it's all fucked up. I can't use the sights, reload it, or shoot it (even though I loaded it before hand). Anybody have this issue? EDIT: It works... sometimes? I havent' identified any pattern.

Testing stuff now, so that I can get better framerate. Currently at 56fps. Hit resume to test out the new setting this happens.

Are you playing as a civilian? oh and I updated my mission [url]http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=18816[/url]

I am soo getting a 1045t ( Because i can afford it, but i can't afford i5's or FX's ) [editline]9th March 2013[/editline] [img]http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/884102014431578442/EDCE43AC27DA88AE7D38F694AA6A20D816EC3244/[/img]

Whenever I try to play wasteland on arma3, it crashes after receiving data finishes(?)

[video=youtube;lUIXBRgxrMM]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lUIXBRgxrMM&feature=youtu.be[/video] Am I the only one who thinks this?

It appears the "weapons" and "secondaryWeapon" commands don't work, they seemingly return empty strings constantly. EDIT: Wow, they actually stop execution of code after them. What the fuck is up?

[QUOTE=Portalz117;39854427]to everyone with the AMD Phenom II X4 955 or similar download [URL="http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/cpu-z.html"]cpu-z[/URL] and check if ur cpu speeds are alternating from the 3.2 or whatever to around 800. if that's happening, reboot into bios and disable cool n' quiet, on my rig it borked itself and kept the clock at 800 all the time. might fix the fps problems[/QUOTE] Looking into this, it appears as though 800 Mhz is just normal clock speed at idle. When I launched Arma 3, my clock speed went up to ~3200 Mhz. But when I alt tab, the clock speed jumped back down to 804 Mhz. I imagine that you use one monitor, and I also imagine Arma 3 locks itself when you alt tab to save processing power. Either way, seems as though it is working fine. Cool and Quiet just clocks the CPU automatically according to the demand of the applications, and because Arma 3 drops demand when you alt tab, C&C downclocks the CPU giving you those results.

So how does the 6 DOF work in vehicles, does it look like your neck is some stretchy-ass shit or what?

[QUOTE=Garik;39856929]So how does the 6 DOF work in vehicles, does it look like your neck is some stretchy-ass shit or what?[/QUOTE] It works by not being 6DOF, pretty sure it's only 3, maybe 5, DOF.

anybody got any links to mods that add some new guns, or ported ones from arma 2? i wanna fuck around with more stuff

Okay I bought it. Getting 80 kb/s in download speed and the other second I get 1.2 Mb/s and over and over again.

Anyone know of a fix for crashing when trying to play on a Wasteland server?

So, what was the Facepunch's server name and password?

[QUOTE=Jocke;39857179]So, what was the Facepunch's server name and password?[/QUOTE] There is no Facepunch server at the moment, I think. Profan, who's the guy who hosts the "official" FP ARMA 2 server hasn't set up an ARMA 3 server.

[QUOTE=hikula;39857193]There is no Facepunch server at the moment, I think. Profan, who's the guy who hosts the "official" FP ARMA 2 server hasn't set up an ARMA 3 server.[/QUOTE] what? we played last night

[QUOTE=ijyt;39856984]It works by not being 6DOF, pretty sure it's only 3, maybe 5, DOF.[/QUOTE] I'm pretty sure ArmA 3 added 6 degrees of freedom for TrackIR and such.

Is it me or is the cross hair for the opfor vehicle turret completely absent from the first person view? I find myself having to spray wildly and use my tracers as a guide to adjust my aim, and the 3rd person cross hair seems to be unreliable half the time.

[QUOTE=GameDev;39857209]what? we played last night[/QUOTE] Yes, on Cuel's listen server. We don't "have" a server, someone just hosts one when we play. But Cuel's away today.

anyone wanna play with me on a wasteland server? I have a mic add me too steam!
