ArmA 2 and ArmA 2: Operation Arrowhead v2 - Games

I like the Iranian Forces mod. It has some pretty cool transports, and it's cool to play around with their funny copies of weaponry.

[QUOTE=Str4fe;30703249]Finished my FreeTrack head tracking device. Arma II is never the same again for me.[/QUOTE] Bought trackIR Played in group operation for 5 minutes, was all fine, looking around like a boss As soon as a firefight began and I had to actually look places and do stuff fast it became a big fucking mess and I've barely touched it since It's good for vehicles, not so good for infantry

Can someone please explain to me what Cold War Assault actually is? Is it OFP on the updated arma (2) engine, or is it just renamed OFP?

:saddowns:

So, can the free version play missions made for regular arma 2?

[QUOTE=fskman;30726703]So, can the free version play missions made for regular arma 2?[/QUOTE] Yep! As long as the mission uses only vanilla ArmA 2 content (No expansions or mods) it'll work.

Nice, can anyone recommend a good vanilla mission?

I suck at infantry. :saddowns:

[QUOTE=Psychokitten;30727612]I suck at infantry. :saddowns:[/QUOTE] I suck at leading them. :saddowns:

I'm good with helicopters though. I can fly decently.

Anyone know any good servers to play on, or a group that plays awesome games together?

[QUOTE=fskman;30727646]I suck at leading them. :saddowns:[/QUOTE] It's either I rage about how I have to give orders and take care of someone else or because the commander and the others can't do shit and I have to do everything.

[QUOTE=RopaDope;30727847]Anyone know any good servers to play on, or a group that plays awesome games together?[/QUOTE] Well if you've got Combined Ops you can play with me and some other people, we run a game every Saturday (would be more often if there were more people but it seems that the average is 5-8) :v:

Me and a friend had fun playing the [url=http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=115906]roadblock duty mission[/url]. It's actually a nice change of pace from the near constant firefight missions that are so common otherwise. It feels kind of like the Arma 2 campaign in a way. I wish there were more missions like this.

[QUOTE=RopaDope;30727847]Anyone know any good servers to play on, or a group that plays awesome games together?[/QUOTE] The airsofters get together quite often. Once we get our dedicated server though we'll be playing alot more and with more people. Check the vidya game thread in the Airsoft Discussion forum.

Pity i had to reformat and couldn't be bothered finding my discs/cdkey I was a fucking ninja scout in Arma, it was awesome. 12m away from an AI squad (that i had snuck up from from about 100m, which is actually harder than it sounds) [quote][img]http://img189.imageshack.us/img189/8554/sneaky.jpg[/img][/quote] My time tested method of blending in (this is just for a laugh?) [quote][img]http://img197.imageshack.us/img197/3930/verycunning.jpg[/img][/quote] Can you see where I've hidden myself? [quote][img]http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/2373/spsi.jpg[/img][/quote] Here I am! (No, seriously, that's where i was.) [quote][img]http://img31.imageshack.us/img31/9785/sniperspotted.png[/img][/quote] Ended up being able to reliably shoot about 1.4KM with the M24, but honestly prefered the SPR even though it had a usable range of about 1km, it doesn't hallf help to mess with peoples heads when playing online, because you can't immediately tell that it was something fired by a sniper.

[QUOTE=RayvenQ;30730183]12m away from an AI squad (that i had snuck up from from about 100m, which is actually harder than it sounds)[/QUOTE] Thats 42m.

No, it isn't, it just looks that way thanks to where the writing is being a similar colour, besides, look at where the soldiers are, thats way closer than 42m.

Dose graphics. (My PC sucks, we're going to have to replace it soon.)

Now that ArmA 2 is free, they should give people who bought it the equivalent for OA.

Awesome

[QUOTE=DeandreT;30731978]Now that ArmA 2 is free, they should give people who bought it the equivalent for OA.[/QUOTE] ArmA 2 and ArmA 2 free aren't the same though.

[QUOTE=Teh Zip File;30732072]ArmA 2 and ArmA 2 free aren't the same though.[/QUOTE] it's like having the free versions of the DLC

[QUOTE=Teh Zip File;30732072]ArmA 2 and ArmA 2 free aren't the same though.[/QUOTE] That's not exactly what I meant. I meant that as ArmA 2 Free players get a limited version of ArmA 2, people who bought ArmA 2 should get a limited version of OA.

They should make it so you can use A2F assets with OA, so people who only bought OA can play on CO servers with Lite content :>

It was gonna happen sooner or later [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/12150594/Arma/takeonhpreview%202011-06-26%2021-36-35-98.png[/img] [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/12150594/Arma/takeonhpreview%202011-06-26%2021-37-51-63.png[/img] Also, ToH's 6DOF sucks

I had a fun PUB game yesterday. My squad leader was some guy with a British accent and some guy with a heavy russian accent kept bombing citys with all sorts of odd bombs like chemical bombs and ICBMs.
