Holy crap, I let it download overnight, I wake up, go to the computer, and it tells me that the patch updater is corrupted. How do I redownload files?
Its my birthday on Thursday and I'm going to treat myself to a game, would you recommend the ARMA2 Combined pack on steam, or should I hold out for something else.
It would be great if you could provide some pro's and con's to the gameplay.
I used to play operation flashpoint back in the day but recently ive fallen into the run and gun trend in FPS's. Not to say that I can't play this but is it overly complicated or easy to pick up?
thnx in advance.
If you've played OFP, it shouldn't be too hard to pick this up.
Been looking at some gameplay videos, apparently I was doing something wrong with the aim when playing the demo, getting it. But can anyone tell me the whole civilian thing? even heard you could be a cow or something :v:

yeah you can play as any animal in the game, in the armoury mode, and the editor I think.
Can you be a civilian in multiplayer and be an insurgent?
I got this in the deal, but I doubt i'll be playing online - don't have a mic and it looks as if people take things a tad seriously.

1 major downside, No russian faction, only cold war vehicles in OA.

That had absolutely nothing to do with what you quoted :downs:
[QUOTE=darkrei9n;23100112]Alright I think I'm ready to play online. Anyone know of a good server?[/QUOTE]
If you want some good PVP try the Charlie Foxtrot Public server
[QUOTE=Crimor;23101744]That had absolutely nothing to do with what you quoted :downs:[/QUOTE]
Yeah, I know. I was just pointing out that you were comparing between Arma and OA. And I was lazy to quote it at the top.
How do you order your squad mates to attack something that isn't an enemy. I placed an empty T-72 I wanted to use as practice. But the only options I have is for them to enter it.
If you set the AI by them selves and use way-points it works, but I want to order them.
Use the engage menu.
Can someone tell me where to get the addon files for zargabad roleplay? When I join it says I am missing the files to play and it shows them saying zargabad.
If anyone is thinking about getting Arma2; for the next 23 hours it's £12,49 on steam
Anyone know how to setup a ULB in the editor?

Is this OA or ARMA 2?
I buyed the ArmA 2:Combined Operations pack and i can really say that it was worth the money. I am looking for a realism unit right now that plays ArmA 2:Operation Arrowhead but the original ArmA 2 is okay too.
[QUOTE=Mvwill;23106140]Is this OA or ARMA 2?[/QUOTE]
Arrowhead
Help, I can't run Combined Operations, I try to run it from steam, but once I press play an error in a command prompt window flashes up too quick to read and then nothing happens after that.
Should I get Arma 2? I'm not spending more than 20 bucks so OA and combined are out of the question. Is arma 2 alone worth it?
Does anybody know if and when ACE2 is going to be fully compatible with OA? Because it is only partially right now.

Yes
[QUOTE=Mvwill;23107689]Yes[/QUOTE]
So its not dead because of the expansion, and it wont be any time soon?

It looks pretty alive to me.
[QUOTE=darkrei9n;23108125]It looks pretty alive to me.[/QUOTE]
So people arent going to migrate all of a sudden to the new expansion?
I love the FLIR. Makes playing as a tank gunner [B]alot[/B] easier when you can just turn FLIR on and all the enemies show up as a white figures.

First use target menu to make em target the tank. (target menu is 2 in the backspace menu)
Then order em to fire using engage menu. Engage -> fire. (engage is 3 in the backspace menu)

in ACE2 devheaven the target is set to less than 37 days. (for a stable release) Might be alot faster if they figure few things out.
[quote]After the ACE 1.3 RC1 release yesterday, ACE(/ACEX/CBA) develop branches have been switched over to Operation Arrowhead, and development is well under way.
We will be removing and adjusting several ACE features to work with the new OA features and will be deploying this on the ongoing development in the next weeks, towards our first OA stable release.
CBA already works out of the box with A2+OA, and XEH support for OA classes is available already in the dev-repositories, we're also working on supporting OA-only users.
We hope to provide you with our first Operation Arrowhead ongoing development update at the standard scheduled update interval; upcoming Friday.
For now the 1.5 OA Stable release is scheduled for early next month.
More new features and enhancements planned once we have made our first Stable release for OA.
The ACE 1.3 RC1 for ArmA 2 will soon be released as 1.3 Stable.[/quote]
Three days and the game hasn't arrived. Hopefully it will soon. I've been playing the demo a lot and I'm getting a lot better at flying helicopters.
The voiceovers here are much less awkward and weird but I actually miss the weird voice acting "ENEMY BOAT WAY right of US". It was what made ArmA II, ArmA II.
