Dear god, i hate arma2's flying so much, arma2 doesn't actually have a proper plane flyinheight command, it's the helicopter one, sure it works, but most of the time for some REALLY retarded reason the planes just start circling when i issue that command, why I DO NOT KNOW.

Not being able to set the trim. Gah, makes me want to beat something up.
I don't know what you guys are talking about, you can fly planes backwards in Arma 2. Arma 2's flight model is awesome.

Skydive after the enemy's plans.

When I commanded AI to drop cargo to a mountain, the AI flew in circles for 10 minutes until gaining enough altitude and correct heading for dropping the cargo.

Fixed-wing aircraft will circle in the same spot unless given a move command.

I believe that's the tail end sticking out of the ground on the left, though there's not much left to tell :v:
Plane crashed into helicopter when I was miles away, could see it just flying towards the place, firing rockets and stuff, then bam.
[QUOTE=PopLot;23587970]OMG Zargabad Life is so awesome. I was playing and someone hacked the server and started doing weird shit. Me and a friend were robbing a gas station when the hacker made like 50 C-130s crash into the city. We jumped in the car and were dodging falling planes while trying to get to the mosque (where everyone was hiding.) One poor guy tried to flag us down and catch a ride but when we started to slow down a plane landed on him, and he disappeared in the explosion. It also disabled our car. We then hid in a house until the ungodly fucking firestorm ended.[/QUOTE] That sounds incredibly awesome.
So how does OA run compared to ArmA2?
[QUOTE=Zackin5;23594080]So how does OA run compared to ArmA2?[/QUOTE] Arma2 mostly ran like ass due to the jacked up ammount of trees, i can't really tell if it's running bad or not though. Unless i'm carpet bombing zargabad :v:
Well I'm downloading the OA demo as of now. but how do you guys think a 9600gt and a AMD Athlon 3800+ (2.4ghz Single core :saddowns:) would handle it? since it ran ArmA 2 mostly decently.

I updated my radeon 4850 drivers from 10.4 to 10.6 and it messed up my bushes and trees in arma 1. It also happened to my buddy with the same card. Anyone know of a solution other than reverting back?
I want to play Zargabad Life so bad, but my CD key is apparently disabled. I've pm'd a mod (Placebo) on the Bohemia Interactive fourms, like I was instructed to, but nothing's happened yet.
nevermind it looks like it's arrowhead only. does it run any better than arma 2? because i get ~15 fps on all normal settings with arma 2. specs: 4870x2 2gb core i7 920 @2.66ghz 12gb ram asus p6t6 ws revolution So i know it's not my computer.
It's for Arrowhead, and you shouldn't need any extra addons. And the server got hacked again. The guy spawned about 20 NPCs who ran into various buildings and detonated suicide bombs. I was fortunate enough to see a cop who just spent over a hundred thousand dollars upgrading his car, just to have it explode and flip over from one of the bombs when he was driving down the street.

[QUOTE=Tac Error;23580905]Besides, Operation Northstar's got that covered.[/QUOTE] They have not updated in months.
anyone want to chip in towards a EU hosted zargabad life server? jest servers do a decently priced french or german host 64 slot dedicated, if 2 or 4 of us split the cost and be admins cost should be minimal and we would have a half decent server as long as people played on it which i guess they will as all the ZL servers im see are us based
[QUOTE=Dippeggs;23572286]Is the $50 pack with this and Arma 2 worth it?[/QUOTE] No, buy it on g2play and save 20$. Waiting for them to restock.

I've played on all the servers so I'm sure I've seen you..
[QUOTE=darkrei9n;23589404]Its worse if you've flown a real plane before. Not being able to set the trim. Gah, makes me want to beat something up.[/QUOTE] This. The SU-25 doesn't fly level at all. Leave it alone for a few seconds and it pitches upward until it stalls.
whats the deal with civi weapons in zargabad life? i bought a gun and it wasnt added to my inventory (i had the required licence do you have to collect it from another location?
So I decided to go reverse lightspeed in an M1A1: (Still might be processing) [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IX77XqwlAug[/media] When you shoot projectiles (RPG rounds, bullets, stones) at the speed of light it often disappears, along with the object you hit.
