Nope, I can confirm that AI (at least in my tests) will not: - move through buildings. - use buildings as cover (per the "Find Cover" command) - hide in buildings (even when under gunship fire) That's a big disappointment to me. Part of the reason I got Arrowhead was for proper urban combat. I was not going to buy it until that one guy posted that AI [i]does[/i] move through buildings. I feel like this is just laziness on the part of the developers; they have the framework there but they aren't motivated enough to use it.

I saw some guys in my group move through a building in the second(?) campaign mission where you land on the airfield. Haven't seen it happen after that though.

[QUOTE=MrBob1337;23337705]Aghghghgggg. What is my problem then?[/QUOTE] I don't really know. They don't do any of those things very often. Perhaps you have not run into a situation where they will actually do it yet.
Ok then.
i just had an awesome fight in zargabad. I got into a fight, and ran off. i left to go eat , and 30 minutes back I see the militia searching all the houses in the village i was hiding in, i think they might of searched every building in zargabad , and a few villages lol
i like how they put all the useless detail into their guns and no one bothers to notice them because they're busy playing and then when certain koreans port them to gmod they get all mad people like their models
[QUOTE=broo20;23299541]It's not that expensive... Buy it retail from [URL="http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ARMA-2-Operation-Arrowhead-PC-DVD-Game-Brand-New-/150466261994?cmd=ViewItem&pt=AU_PC_Video_Games_Games&hash=item23087cf3ea"]ebay[/URL][/QUOTE] My suggestion would be to pick it up from Sprocket, 90% of the profit goes to Bohemia to support future development of new products and content for prior games.

I was flying an MI8 full of Czech soldiers and we came under fire from 2 DHSKMs that disabled our rotors, and we crashed in a field and got ambushed on landing. In the tense firefight that followed, all of the men I was flying were killed, so I returned fire for a bit until they started to try and flank me, at which point I sprinted a good half kilometre away from the crash site to a nearby village. After around 5 minutes I could see the militia running up the road searching for me. I was spotted and they opened fire and almost hit me. Occasionally they would launch an RPG at the building but since they are militia and suck the RPG would usually miss. When the shooting died down I tried to make a run for it but then they showed up in a technical and blasted me and I died :(

is that a fucking submarine?
SUBMARINE WHEREDOIHOWDOIAHSJABNDFHBDHLGBLSEMICOLON /caps
Isn't that the ww2 ships addon? Was fun to fuck with.
Is sound accurate in this game? I mean, does it travel? If i were to blow up something far away, would i hear the explosion after i see it?
[QUOTE=adadadsd;23353588]Is sound accurate in this game? I mean, does it travel? If i were to blow up something far away, would i hear the explosion after i see it?[/QUOTE] Yes, realistic sound travel has been there since the first OFP.
Bought, downloading ARMA 2 now, then OA.
I seem to of lost my creative spark for mission creating. Could someone suggest an idea for me to do?
When I play regular Arma 2 it runs pretty unsmoothly, could you tell me what in my computer that is doing bad? My specs: CPU: AMD Athlon II X4 630 2.80 GHz GPU: ATI Radeon HD 5700 Series (I'm pretty sure it's a 5750) RAM: 4.0 GB I really want to be able to run this game because it looks awesome. When looking on "Can you run it?" it says everything is fine except the CPU speed: "[B]CPU Speed Recommended: Intel Core 2.8 GHz / AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+ or faster You Have: 2.81 GHz Performance Rated at: 5.62 GHz[/B]"

It made mine run smoother not sure why, it might have sent more commands to the GPU instead of the CPU which might of helped.
[QUOTE=MrBob1337;23354135]I seem to of lost my creative spark for mission creating. Could someone suggest an idea for me to do?[/QUOTE] Perhaps not the most original idea, but this is what I'm doing right now: Fill Zargabad up with enemies with random spawning locations, and have BLUFOR insert with helicopters & Humvees, along with air support. Set them all to Seek & Destroy. Spawn Col. Aziz, and give him some guards, and spawn him in a random location. Set a trigger down that, when Col. Aziz is killed, ends the mission. Basically, an assassination type mission.
[QUOTE=MrBob1337;23354135]I seem to of lost my creative spark for mission creating. Could someone suggest an idea for me to do?[/QUOTE] a multi day campaign, that plays like this: [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a2hnXgrnlUQ&playnext_from=TL&videos=OitUVRKInq8[/url]
I'm just making a pilot training one, a humvee rides you to the runway with some helicopters and planes going overhead for a cool effect. Just messing around with the editor really, quite new to this game.
