Supporting!!!!

Recommended Posts

Allright, I'm starting to get mad with this. I'm playing operation harvest red and the fourth? mission "manhattan".

In the third mission the problem occurred but I was able to play it through. But now in the manhattan mission, my teams medic (4. member of the team) just runs away and he just says "supporting", if I try to get him back to formation, or to move somewhere. Now that it really pissed me off, was because I started using the UAV and after a while i get at radio "4: [ughh]" and I get out of UAV and find out that the medic has ran 2km to north supporting some damn farmer! He kept doing it in the 3rd mission but now it is making the completion impossible because he gets shot when he runs away!!!!

Has this been a problem to anyone else and is there a way to override the damn "supporting" of the medic???

Edit: Now I've been able to do some progress after I keep the medic inside LAV and dont let him out and he listens to mount and disembark commands even if he's "supoprting" some farmer 3 clicks away... But it's till one man useless in the team if I'm trying to engage a camp on foot!

Never had the problem (been a while since I touched this campaign though) and never heard of it before. Doesn't he respond if you give him an order, like "go to some mouseclick position" or "return to formation"? There might be some AI changes in the later version that can cause problems, not sure. I think most of us use the betas for our own agenda, never really testing, especially things like the A2 campaign.

Never heard about such a problem even though have played OA 1.54 Manhattan for about 30 hours and completed it twice in MP with Expert difficulty. For that I had to fight all kinds of problems in it (out of memory errors after about every third autosave, one BSOD, one CTD, one corrupted savegame, AI beeing trapped inside APC, end mission bug, falling camouglage net killing Shaftoe and so on...). Ofcourse since I basically only play MP coop and nothing else, so I only need to commands AI characters when server is not full.

In case I still run into that problem. I would like to know did you play it with Arma 2 or with Arma 2 Combined Operations? And what version?

BTW. There is a typo in your location.:rolleyes:

Your medic will support any friendly forces requiring a medic if he is told 'Engage at will', to keep him by you tell him to 'disengage'.
