Stagler 39 Posted September 5, 2012 I'm having a realy hard time in the first mission because the hind lands my platoon directly in the line of fire between a friendly unit (spetznaz?) and the airstrip.As a result we get peppered by friendly fire Most of the time I loose half my unit (tovarisch!). Sometimes we even loose the hind! I know the Russian army like to throw caution to the wind in favour of bold manoeuvres but this is reckless to the point of suicide... Can someone help? I reckon that the simplest solution would be to get the hind to land 2 dozen metres to the north or south but I don't know how to edit the mission file... Just keep trying domokun, adapt and overcome! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bardosy 158 Posted September 5, 2012 Restart the mission. I never land between friend and foe. When I tested it, the spetznaz always run next to me, not behind me. But in ArmA2 engine sometimes happened random things, so it's probably could happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tonci87 163 Posted September 5, 2012 I think the main problem with the first Mission is the lack of a scoped weapon for yourself. It would be extremelly usefull on the open airfield. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bardosy 158 Posted September 5, 2012 Tonci, I don't know AFRF mod, but it's completely unbelievable there is no Dragunov. And if there is, you can choose it in the briefing's weapon selection. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stagler 39 Posted September 5, 2012 We will just have to see what AFRF 0.2 brings then :p There is also a dragunov in briefing selection. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NoRailgunner 0 Posted September 5, 2012 Tonci87 open your eyes there are SVD's and PKP's with "scopes" - first mission you don't need to change gear at all even the Metis is a bit too much. What is a bit strange though are those static weapons like ZU-23 and MG's - their CDF gunners still standing/sitting in and don't fire. Imo the should fire or run away asap or get killed/destroyed by OPFOR units. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
domokun 515 Posted September 6, 2012 (edited) Just keep trying domokun, adapt and overcome! Keeping trying? I'm on my 10th or 11th attempt... Adapt? A mission that is designed for a platoon of 8-men, is down to 2 within the first 5 secs :D Overcome? The only thing I've overcome is my fear of dying :o Restart the mission. I never land between friend and foe. When I tested it, the spetznaz always run next to me, not behind me. But in ArmA2 engine sometimes happened random things, so it's probably could happen. I've restarted the mission a dozen times and the behaviour is disturbingly regular. But I'll follow your advice but this time with all the mods disabled save RHS.
