[QUOTE=DarkZero135;34217397]Bradley is 25mm[/QUOTE]
stil
i thought we were going to be using the past week for training
[QUOTE=W0w00t;34215496]not even close
bradley has more armor, tracks, TOWs, and a 30mm instead of a 25 iirc
bmp and bradley
btr and lav[/QUOTE]
BMP and Bradley are a closer match than the BTR and LAV is what I'm saying, regardless of which of you is correct here.

[QUOTE=Mbbird;34217625]Okay it doesn't outclass the BTR at all. They're very evenly matched. I don't think it's really fair to put the skill of the players manning them on the technical fact that they're practically the same vehicle in Arma.[/QUOTE]
Two AP shots from the LAV took out our BTR. The only thing that makes up for it is the AT launcher slapped on the turret, but miss with that and fail to fuck off in time and you're done
Well that's the game. Who ever shoots first wins. BTR's missile has tab lock on. Plus btr has ags-30 grenade launcher. Also is lav even amphibious?
pretty sure you got him by something more than my 25mms
because in the 2nd apc round, i was hitting you guys and it took more like 80 rounds to kill

also in reality lav has 2 side tow launchers
nice to hear that you enjoyed my mission
remove the apc's completely?
[QUOTE=Cuel;34221225]nice to hear that you enjoyed my mission

yeah, completely changed the aspect of combat
we destroyed with the apcs (airsoft), but lost moderately hard without em
apcs only have a 20% to spawn per round (cars 40%)
but then what? change the lav to what

[QUOTE=trotskygrad;34214441]replace BTR with BMP and see how that goes.[/QUOTE]

I didnt realize they were using a real place instead of the usual durkadurkastan. Then again, if i hadnt wiki'd it I wouldnt know it actually existed anyway.
Its interesting how an island in the middle of nowhere found out that they were in a game thats rather obscure except for a small community.

even Chernarus in ArmA2 and Takistan in A2OA [I](not completely sure about this one though)[/I] are based on real life terrains. Chernarus is actually a part of Czech Republic.
i dont know where else to ask so i'll do it here
anyone got a coupon for ArmA 2 Combined Operations? ill trade other coupons for it or whatever else i have
have been wanting to play this game for a long time :c

Based on is the key word. Chernarus and takistan dont exist, but they're based on real areas. This is the first time they're actually using a real place as far as i know.
Or they could be doing the same thing again and the whole thing is a huge misunderstanding

"There could possibly be problems with national security"
in the article
I think it's the more close modeling of the towns and villages that's the problem here.

In ACE the damage model is done in a way that the vehicles are more likely to be disabled/knocked out rather than exploding like in battlefield.
If you are using HE rounds, they will just bounce off.
AP rounds/50 cal can kill all the crew inside LAV/BTR, leaving the vehicle operational.
In RL US/USMC lav-25's don't have tow's on the side, Instead they have a separate ATGM system that can replace the turret (In battlefield lav has side launchers.)

I kinda doubt that, considering a BTR got hit by 3-4 rounds from the cannon of the LAV and just exploded.
In ARMA 2 vehicles tend to explode in a giant ball of flames no matter what.

Get hit with an RPG? Explosion.
Run over a mine? Explosion.
Hit a bush going slightly too fast? Explosion.

Best PvP/TvT/Force on Force mission I've been on:
We were fighting the suuth affrikans (who are the nasty terries filming here), I was one of the three blokes that ambush em at the end, was the end result of a 15 minute stalk

all our games terrains are based off real world data
A2, OA, TOH and A3 are just using more precise (to bone) representation of real world terrain than CWC/Resistance and A1 ...
do you have a comment on that article dwarden?

Two AP shots from the BTR would take out the LAV. Sorry I missed this post but it seems like you guys just aren't used to playing with ACE. A few 30mm rounds entering an IFV of that kind would shred the crew and everything else it touches. ACE just simulates that by occasionally killing crewmen on non-damaging rounds (but penetrating, you can't not penetrate each other) and exploding the entire thing after 4 or 5 rounds. We actually put like 10 rounds into you of what was probably 20.
Regardless, I don't even know why we counted the LAV-BTR games. You guys destroyed us on every other occasion, guess our tankers are just pro :v:

not as pro as me in a heli
I can skim treetops without making my heli instantly explode
it explodes 30 seconds later when I fail at autorotation.
damn, replayed this mission in a nostalgia moment
I expected a catfight when these two ladies met
