So uh, does this happen to anyone else, or is one of my mods giving me an opportunity to start a new space program.

That kinda stuff can happen sometimes; I remember there was an FPARMA operation (might've been [I]Capital Investment)[/I] where my squad's SL (Elix) found an IED, it went off promptly after, and his corpse ragdolled pretty far from the initial blast site (and that's just one specific example).

I was in the center of the road when the IED went off and my corpse ragdolled off the road and about 15 feet into the weeds.
What real life vehicles are the new vehicles in the Tank DLC based off?
[QUOTE=Tuskin;53198431]What real life vehicles are the new vehicles in the Tank DLC based off?[/QUOTE]
The T-140 is the T-14 Armata, the Rhino is a Rooikat with 120mm turret, and the Nyx is a Wiesel 2
Thanks
The Nyx is a fun little beast to play with. Really fun to have vehicles that kinda have to rely on each other for effective use.
so I was driving around with Nyx (sort of, was commander, commanding AI driver around) and I was turned out since wanted to get better view while moving. I ended up getting shot out of my seat while driving at some enemies, and this ended up being the result

I'm having a slightly hard time seeing why they named this DLC Tank[B]s[/B]. Plural. There's [I]one[/I].
Jets had at least three reasonable warfare machines, and a JET UAV.
Is it just me?
[QUOTE=lekkimsm;53199712]Is it just me, or would "Tank" have been a more suitable name for the DLC?[/QUOTE]
Well it's based around armoured warfare and a lot of the other stuff added (AT technicals, top-attack launchers, more shoulder-launched AT variants) are related to how people interact with armour on the field.
Also adding just more tanks would be a boring as fuck DLC, since all tanks in ARMA are pretty much the same. There's no noticeable difference in the T-140 and T-100's performance, whereas the Nyx and Rhino have more distinct, interesting roles.

Who needs AA anyway.
Just noticed ranging for armoured vehicles also account for weapon-offset now, which leads to some really hilarious sideways shooting if you zero your cannon for 10 meters or less.

wait so how does the gun camera point straight if it's fixed to the horizontal traverse? is this only on some vehicles with, like, gimballed gunner optics? if so, how long have we had gimballed optics on tanks and not had them bound to alt-look?

Oh you don't understand how zeroing in ARMA works. The gun camera does not change, it is fixed. The direction the gun shoots is what you can adjust. When you zero a weapon to any given distance, the shell or bullet simply leaves the barrel at an upwards angle. With this new horizontal zero, it also leaves it sideways. Which leads to this kind of shenanigans:

Weird trajectories has always been noticeable, but usually only on extreme ranges with low velocity tracers where your shell/bullet would leave the barrel at a crazy angle, but now we got parallax-aiming, we got another dimension of weirdness to scratch our heads at.

Here's an example of how it's always been, using the 40mm GMG which is probably the most pronounced sinner in the game:

So the shot just leaves the barrel sideways? christ, sue me for thinking gunnery in this game would be robust, what the fuck.
Well it's a system that works just fine, as long as it's not at extreme close/long ranges or with extremely low velocity weapons. You really don't notice it much at all except with the 12.7mm silenced sniper from Marksmen and the GMGs.
You also gotta remember that you gotta make a concious effort to get to the level of fuckup I've done in those pics. With the Marshal, I had to zero in on the house right next to me, then turn the turret to the field and fire that way without rezeroing. The GMG, I had to set the sights to 1500 meters, which is frankly a ridiculous range to use that weapons system at.
im being forced to conform to this new punch stuff.. happy new punch day FPARMA
First post after the newpunch migration, I just want to say
Demonic's channel sucks! <3
At least the new forum isn't as shit as Arma 3.
Man this newpunch is taking my eyes for a ride!
I changed my name so now I'm cool and people know who I am. I can't believe one of the last remnants of cpt.funkymonk just got destroyed. Also I can't believe I actually got the name 'Terry"
It's like that new thread smell but 500 times worse and more noxious, like fresh electronics
Finally Terry gets the name and avatar he deserves. Now he can be recognized in the whole forum as the better FP Arma streamer
Time to rename FPArma.
