Why was i teleported to alpha? I was supposed to stay with croiguy and versten to help bravo. Versten died when i got teled but on the other hand i helped like 20 other people. Medics per squad are a must.
[QUOTE=opec;49786922][url]https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Description.ext#disableChannels[/url] mission makers don't forget to disable global and side chat. if it's really that important you can send it over steam or ts. too many shitters using it "because my radio won't work" ie out of range or blocked by terrain. Glad to see mittens to put an end to teleporting today.[/QUOTE] It works in theory, but there is just things you need to tell the Zeus to fix.
why does everyone need to read it, if it's intended only for zeus? [QUOTE] if it's really that important you can send it over steam or ts.[/QUOTE]
Literally the only thing I could make a webm out of this OP. Kinda sad since I finally can record at decent framerate. [vid]https://my.mixtape.moe/wjeceh.webm[/vid] Oh and that staring contest Moral and I had at the very beginning in the boat. [t]http://i.imgur.com/u7F8A30.jpg[/t]
[QUOTE=opec;49786956]why does everyone need to read it, if it's intended only for zeus?[/QUOTE] I don't have zeus on steam. How am I supposed to communicate with him? Seriously, disabling global will cause more harm than good.
[QUOTE=opec;49786956]why does everyone need to read it, if it's intended only for zeus?[/QUOTE] are you being a shitter on purpose or is this just a meme look, not everyone has everyone as steam friends and arma is a buggy piece of shit, especially at this level of mods
Poke him on ts. It's really not that hard. I saw a handful of people talking to zeus on global today.... and an endless stream of memes, intel, orders, and other annoying shenanigans. Keeping global on causes more harm than good.

I could do that. That doesn't change the fact that everyone else is receiving intel and orders from global chat. If we're going to stoop to that level, why not go full casual? Enable 3rd person and vanilla medical while we're at it. It's hilarious. I overheard someone today say that our squad needed to play more carefully since respawn/tp wasn't going to happen. It's amazing how many people are here only for a COD experience.

pros and cons: pros: able to talk to zeus at the press of a button able to notify anyone in the server when the game is fucked (such as acre bugs) able to notify everyone that you might not be able to hear them because your TS is bugging or crashed able to notify people if the radio you're holding is now bugged (happened before) cons: having to read text like, we don't disable features because an idiot abuses it, you tell the idiot not to be abuse it [editline]21st February 2016[/editline] also thanks for the mission guys was good fun noticed though that basically every time i died, it was because of a headshot from an ai that i saw only half a second before what's going on with the difficulty of the ai

[QUOTE=kaukassus;49787084][vid]https://my.mixtape.moe/zpxvox.webm[/vid][/QUOTE] yeah but i watched two boats nudge today and neither one exploded instantly 10/10 phyics engine thx bethesda
[QUOTE=Cloak Raider;49787095]yeah but i watched two boats nudge today and neither one exploded instantly 10/10 phyics engine thx bethesda[/QUOTE] we had a jeep that was just flipped, but fine when we landed. After a minute, it suddenly exploded and took out ramez. I don't trust injured vehicles one bit. Better be safe than sorry.
[QUOTE=Cloak Raider;49787066]like, we don't disable features because an idiot abuses it, you tell the idiot not to be abuse it[/QUOTE] fair enough. I don't see admins working to change the culture of global abuse though.
[QUOTE=Cloak Raider;49787095]yeah but i watched two boats nudge today and neither one exploded instantly 10/10 phyics engine thx bethesda[/QUOTE] I actually clenched my ass because i thought we were gonna explode right there in the water. it's a good day.
[QUOTE=Cloak Raider;49787095]yeah but i watched two boats nudge today and neither one exploded instantly 10/10 phyics engine thx bethesda[/QUOTE] I knew Bravo will be in for sick flips since Skyhawk misdropped the SOV.
[QUOTE=KennyAwsum;49787114]I actually clenched my ass because i thought we were gonna explode right there in the water. it's a good day.[/QUOTE] the moment that the two boats started touching each other, on a no-respawn mission, was honest to god the tensest moment that arma 3 has provided to me so far

People aren't here for "The COD Experience" or "Full Mil-Sim 20 hours of walking and then suddenly getting shot by a sniper AI 5km away and being insta dead" People are here to have F U N. To enjoy the community, to play with friends. To have a semi realistic battle with a large group of people that would be difficult to organize by ones self.
[QUOTE=opec;49787111]fair enough. I don't see admins working to change the culture of global abuse though.[/QUOTE] i always have #monitor on and my chat also breaks when entering zeus at times, so i barely see it

Also, I wanna take a moment to talk about CAS, and the issues it faced today. I take part of the blame, but only part of it. I had zero radio communication except for my 117 with CAS and my squad. I had a 148, I tried to call things out on it, but it is honestly impossible having to listen to people use regular talk, orders from your squad lead through 343, a jet who wants orders from you on the 117, AND try to make sure it's clear for you to do a bombing run on the 148. I only have 2 ears, and I have to dodge bullets at the same time. While I enjoyed being FAC, I feel like I was given more power than a person who was this far down the chain of command should have. I feel like having squads with laser designators is a good idea, but someone else has to be in charge of actually controlling the jet. Especially when the jet is out of radio range when it goes to refuel (Luckily I had him on steam, cause I had other people yelling at me for something that wasn't my fault). Added: a squads only form of anti-tank should not be a jet, between making sure the jet wasn't stuck underground, getting the jet into radio range, getting the target lazed long enough for me not to get fucked up, and the jet showing up was a solid 10 minutes minimum. That being said, people called out "Get CAS on the BTR" so I would go over the radio and say "Kill the BTR" and then other people would go try and touch the BTR. Same with "Red smoke on BTR" oh i'm also going to use red smoke as cover. But, I do apologize for anyone who I bombed, I was both taking control and following orders from people (Not saying who cause it's not chill to call people out on things)

I'd like to thank CAS for the cinematic almost FF. [vid]https://my.mixtape.moe/dypufc.mp4[/vid] Oh, and you cant see shit with the windows on the seahawk when you're flying away from the sun. Its like someone went full bukakke in the cockpit.
