ARMA 2:OA beta patch 74123

Recommended Posts

This beta fixes all map's collision detection func or only on Utes?

So I would guess no more "jumping for joy" vehicles anymore?

Heh, wouldn't that be great? ;)

But no, I'm afraid this fix is not related to "jumping for joy" vehicles.

So live another day for the jumpy vehicles. I hope it gets nailed soon.

I would like to see the "injured when walking on rocks" bug. It happened to me and to my AI teammates several times. The character jumps up (like the vehicles) and gets injured. :mad:

There is a new Bug with Choppers now.

Just set any Helo flying in the Editor, give it 2 Waypoints, and sit in as Gunner for Example. they nicking up and down with the nose the whole time, this looks very strange....

Its like sitting in a swingboat now.

yeah i noticed..

maybe got something to do with the way AI avoids a collision

but its pretty anoying and looks BAD

specialy when i set the chopper to fly higher

sometimes when i let them fly over mountains they collide with the next hill cause they dive to fast to be able to climb the next hill feels like sitting in a race car.

(i think) the AI is scanning downwards to much, maybe the devs can let AI scan more whats infront of him instead.

Any new ArmA II only betas or patches coming ?

I think it's safe to say that OA is the way to go from now on.

Many people still like and do play with A2 + OA content so an update or upgrade for A2 is much more appreciated than leaving this content somewhere far behind. :)

A2+OA (=Combined Operations) is getting updated all the time, as it's Operation Arrowhead with Arma 2 content.

One could say A2 was there first and OA is "only" the standalone expansion. Upgrading both = win! Otherwise CO could suffer even more from old A2 issues+bugs. Guess there is no need for BIS to reinvent the wheel over and over again. ;)

Thanks for the continued support BIS.

I've noticed a few bugs cropping up in recent betas. I'll list them now (while I can remember and then update with examples/repros when I get home later from work).

Script Error using BIS artillery module in certain situations

Script error when playing killed.sqs in a mission

Units stuck in danger mode

Units unresponsive after player assumes control then 'jumps into' another unit

They are different engines, so upgrading both will only continue to be more difficult. With CO you get all the A2 content anyway, so upgrading to CO just makes sense. You keep all the content, get the better engine and so much more.

I have an old test mission, basically a heli with the player "in cargo" following a clockwise waypoint trip around Chernarus.

There is a new Bug with Choppers now.

Just set any Helo flying in the Editor, give it 2 Waypoints, and sit in as Gunner for Example. they nicking up and down with the nose the whole time, this looks very strange....

Its like sitting in a swingboat now.

- The heli is bobbing up and down all the time. Makes me nauseous in 1st PV and looks unrealistic in 3rd PV.

- It crashes into the trees trying to climb uphill, never happened in stable or betas pre 74xxx.

Was just a question as I have installed my Morphicon version on my sons PC And I have boxed A2 and OA so I can play with him but only the last beta for A2. Not that important for me really as he's only 4 and doesn't mind the bugs lol. (no enemies just running around in and out of vehicles and chasing rabbits and talking to daddy via voip).

i have the retail versions of arma2 and oa

i installed oa over my arma2 installation so does that mean i have combined operations and the patches update both?

If you have both OA and A2 content when you start the game, you have Combined Operations.

So was it only me that couldn't order the AI gunner in a tank/APC to fire/hold fire from the Commander position?

As US Army, we arrested some Taki guy today (Domination based script), and when he joined our team his voice was completely screwed up, waaaay low pitch. Not sure if server was updated to this patch but clients were updated.
