ok now my ArmA just started crashing as soon as i start it
[editline]9th June 2011[/editline]
after enabling WarFX, there is literally 1 server that allows it
and about ACE, it's fucking amazing but there are no public servers that use it, and i'm not going to apply to some shitty "realism hur durf unit" that does everything in their power to make sure you don't have fun while playing just so i can play on an ACE server, plus i'm not going to play at some scheduled time, if i feel like playing ACE then i want to play ACE, not wait until Saturday to have a game
there used to be a couple of really populated ACE servers that were a load fun and were public, but now it's just warfare and domination on vanilla

Playing public games in arma2 is like teamwork in cod, you don't.

Almost every server in that list has WARFX signatures and many different soundmods, so I don't really see what your problem is.
Unless you're actually playing ARMA 2 instead of OA, almost everyone has moved to OA/CO.
too bad every single community in ArmA is full of people who either want to be in the military or were and think ArmA is real life and treat it like such

there is 1 server on that list that has the WarFX signatures and it's the DK one, i'm looking at it right now in-game with WarFX enabled
1 server? I opened about 10 of them randomly from that list and almost all of them had WARFX signatures. You're probably using a different version of WARFX or something. I agree that's something they should improve though, it's pain in the ass when different servers are running different versions of addons so you have to look for the right one.
Some of those servers seem to have signature check off too, so you can use whatever the fuck you want on those.
just made sure i had the latest version of WarFX, tried again, nope still not allowed on any of those servers

i've only found one server with good teamwork. best is to avoid domination/warfare servers
The only time I play ArmA is when I play with friends, playing on public servers usually isn't very fun.
The announcement of the free ARMA II got me interested in playing my own copy on Steam again. How come there are barely any American servers?
[QUOTE=maqzek;30348366]Any examples of what you're expecting?[/QUOTE]
Pretty much a control scheme from any modern tactical FPS game, with the simulation and realism that ArmA delivers.
If I could have Raven Shield's movement design with ArmA's military scope and accuracy, that would be perfect:

Ignore the terrible AI (which ArmA2 suffers from too but not nearly as bad as this), and pay attention to the movment and the player actions (such as door opening). Raven Shield is one of the few "realistic" games to really get movment/player interaction with the world right. It's not all arcade-like in the CoD sense, but it isn't robotic and "unnaturally simulated" like ArmA.
Motions are fluid, you can go into and out of cover naturally and peak around corners in an analog (gradual) fashion. Sure there isn't headbobbing or effective simulation of recoil, but the movement and your ability to navigate in a first person perspective was pretty much perfect for the game.

I don't have any friends to play with in ArmA. :saddowns:
[QUOTE=maqzek;30350191]
Multiplayer?! If they keep it updated, it would be the best game demo ever.[/QUOTE]
yes it will use up2date ARMA 2 engine (not OA obviously), hell let me post this:

That's a cool trailer
So basically minus the HD graphics means you'll be playing with the lowest textures in ARMA2.
I already play like this so I can have a stable framerate :smith:
Requesting DL link for PROPER projects vegetation and building mods. Low edition preferably (The only alternative to "very low").
The dev has left, site is unupdated and download links on armaholic and the site are down.

I play on all low settings at 640 x 450 windowed so I can get a decent viewdistance.

:gonk:
That's horrible
Yes. Yes it is. Fortunately, I hope to be upgrading sometime this month or next.
don't worry, i play on all low/very low and still get around 10-15 FPS :buddy:
We should all play some today. Make a server please, profan.
does anyone have Insurgency 0.76 ACE BAF Zargabad in there mpmissions folder? i cant find it available for download anywhere, i think its on the six network but i cant see how you browse missions in the program
Now Arma 3's units are starting to look stupid. But I'll buy it for the engine.
[QUOTE=simkas;30376283]We should all play some today. Make a server please, profan.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, we should try out that Chernarus Apocalypse map again unless Profan's done with that map of his.
[QUOTE=simkas;30376283]We should all play some today. Make a server please, profan.[/QUOTE]
Tomorrow is game, ie saturday
i made a DM14 Zargabad map in the 3D Editor, with Zeus and GL4 the AI can be pretty scary
especially when they manage to find a carl gustav
